Title: When Sirius Said It Back
Look (also known as prompt): Baffled
Scene: Seventh Year, Library, 1976
Words: 100
Authors note: Personal detail, I am not a romantic, although in paper and words I am – let's just say I pulled a Sirius when I "said it back". Overkill with the personal touches but hey.
Hope you enjoy this one; I sure did writing it…

"Moony"
"Shhh"
"Let's talk"
"Really?"
"It's extremely important."
"It's probably illegal"
"You're not listening!"
"I won't help"
"Remus!"
"Ask Wormtail"
I snatched the book he was consumed by despite his disapproval. "It's you"
I groaned. "Please, listen"
I explained the entire universes unsolved mysteries to him with one finger pointing at me, one hand rubbing my racing heart and one trembling finger pointing at Remus. Instead of understanding his eyebrows lifted," But you never spoke".
"Merlin!" I quaked, "its Muggle sign language!"
Distrusting he asked, "And your gesture means…?"
"I love you" I choked, meaning everything attached to those words.
