"Sirius Black. How did you even get worms?"
Remus heaved a sigh as the black dog looked up at him pitifully and whimpered. He really had his act down.
"You realize how much you're going to hate this medicine, right?"
Another whimper. He sighed again and pinched the bridge of his nose. This was going to be absolutely disgusting.
"Fine. I'll go buy the medicine, but if you even think about unleashing worms in my house, I will make you sleep outside. And I mean it."
He used his no-joke voice. The one that he only broke out in matters of life and death. Like it would mean Sirius's life if Remus caught his worms.
The dog whimpered more and rolled on its back, its belly bulging uncomfortably. Remus quirked a small sad smile and tenderly rubbed the furry stomach.
"I'm sorry, love."
He sighed again, his heart aching.
"Sometimes I wish you were really him, though."
