Here’s chapter 12.


Chapter 12. – Grimmauld Place

“What do you think?” Remus asked Sirius after Sirius had read the letter from Dumbledore that had been waiting for him at Remus’s cottage.

“You know what the letter’s about?” Sirius asked him.

“Yes.” Remus said and drew a letter out of his pocket. “He sent me one as well.”

Sirius sat down on the couch, covering his face and muttering out between his hands.

“He’s serious about this?”

“He’s as serious as your name is Sirius. Voldemort is back. Of course Dumbledore’s not going to turn a blind eye to this. He’s not going to stick his head in the sand like the Ministry and Fudge are doing.“ Remus said a little shocked at his friend response.

“Of course he is.” Sirius said tiredly. “Always doing what’s right. Getting other people to join him. Getting them killed. All for what’s right.”

Now Remus understood Sirius’s negative respond. He was thinking about the old Order members that had died or suffered worse fates than death for the cause. Like James and Lily. Or the Longbottoms.

“It was their choice Sirius. They knew the risks. And they chose...”

“If you tell me that they chose what’s right over what’s easy I will scream.” Sirius caught in childishly.

“All right I won’t say it.” Remus said in a soothing voice, he kneeled in front of Sirius and pulled Sirius’s hands from his face looking him in the eyes. “But that’s the truth. Whether you like it or not.”

Sirius looked back at him then sighed deeply. “I know. It’s just easier to pretend it was just Voldemort’s doing. Not theirs as well. Because if they would have chosen not to go to the Order they never would have faced Voldemort three times and then the prophecy wouldn’t have referred to Harry.”

“You’ve given this a lot of thought I hear.” Remus said stunned at exactly how much thought Sirius had given into this. Because what he had said really did make sense. And Sirius making sense didn’t happen a lot these days.

“Yes I have. A lot more thought than I’m giving into the response of this letter.” Sirius paused and drew a deep breath. “I’ll join. And I will let Dumbledore use number 12 as headquarters.”

“Use number 12...what?” Remus asked not sure what Sirius was on about.

“Dumbledore asked me if the Order could use Grimmauld Place as headquarters. He needs a save place for it and with all the spells my mother put on the place there aren’t many other places in Britain saver. And I bet he will put up a spell or two on his own.”

“Yeah I bet he will.” Remus said and finally sat down next to Sirius on the couch. “So you’re doing this then? Joining the Order again?” He asked Sirius wanting to be sure.

“Yes I am. Completely sure. It’s not like I’ve got a lot of other things to do. Besides with Dumbledore’s spell around Grimmauld Place I’ll be able to stay there without the Ministry finding me. No more living as Padfoot in a jungle somewhere. That’ll be nice. Being able to stay in one place. Not having to be Padfoot all the time. I was starting to worry I wouldn’t be able to change back to human one day. So yes I’m joining.”

“Then I’ll as well. I wasn’t going to join unless you were. Didn’t want to do this without my best friend.” Remus said quickly and Sirius turned his head, looking at him his gaze piercing.

“Still just best friends then, hey?” He asked. Remus didn’t know how to respond to this. Up until that point they’d ignored that topic like it was a mad dragon. Remus didn’t know if he was ready for this conversation. Sirius clearly didn’t think the same thing. He’d clearly decided to look that big, bright yellow elephant in the eyes.

“Sirius I...I...” Remus started to say stuttering over what exactly he was going to say.

Sirius seeing his discomfort stopped him.

“It’s fine Remus. You...I...we don’t need to talk about this now. It’s too soon...I can see that...sorry...I won’t bring it up again.”

Uncomfortable silence settled over the room for awhile. Finally Remus broke it.

“We should eh...write Dumbledore. Tell him we’ll join. And I guess you’ll need to go to London and help him get into Grimmauld Place.”

“We should write him. But I won’t need to help him get in the house. He’s already in. He was looking around checking to see if it could be used as headquarters. He just wanted my permission before starting to use it.”

Remus chuckled as he stood up to get the parchment, ink and quill to write Dumbledore back.

“Of course he has. It’s so like him. Doing half the job before getting a permission. You want me to write on both ours behalf?” He asked Sirius

“It really is like him.” Sirius agreed. “Yes please. I’m afraid my handwriting would offend him, it’s so bad.”

Remus sat by his desk and wrote his and Sirius respond. The letter said.

“I’ll join. So will Padfoot and you have his permission to use number 12 Grimmauld Place.”

He sealed the letter, wrote Dumbledore’s name on the front and handed it to Sirius, who tied it to Remus’s owl and sent her off.

As Remus watched his owl fly off with the letter he sighed softly. For some reason he had a bad feeling about this
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“Oh Merlin...I hate it when I’m right.” Remus thought.

He and Sirius were sitting at the kitchen table at number 12 during the first new Order of the Phoenix meeting.

Around the table were all the new Order members and some of the old ones.

Dumbledore sat at one end and was going over what the purpose of this Order was to the new Order members.

Across the table from them no other than Severus Snape was sitting, smirking to them in a way that didn’t bode well for either of them.

“I really, really hate being right.” Remus thought again while looking at Snape’s devilish smirk.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

And right he was. Over the next few weeks Snape would taunt both him and Sirius every time he saw them. Which was quite often since now, all three of them all held permanent residents at number 12.

Sirius was of course staying there because he didn’t have another place to stay at and Remus had decided while his only job was within the Order he might as well stay at the headquarters. But why on earth Snape was staying there he didn’t know. The last time he knew Snape had a summer house at Spinner’s End. The headquarters had visitors, other Order members who would come and go, sometimes staying for days, other time only staying for a few hours.

One morning there was a particularly crowded breakfast, Mr. And Mrs Weasley had arrived the day before with four of their children and were planning on staying for some time since both of them were taking part in a very time-consuming Order mission, Miss Granger had arrived with them. Dumbledore had dropped by for breakfast, McGonagall with him and Tonks, Shacklebolt and Moody had all swung by to give updates on their missions. Snape was also present like ever. Now the breakfast was well on it’s way but was rather quiet everyone were hurrying up to eat before heading for work.

“Oh Sirius...” Dumbledore began. “I just wanted to let you now. Harry will be arriving next week. I’ve been planning to take him from the Dursley’s and bring him here for a while and now all the arrangements have been
made. You should expect him late on Wednesday.”

Sirius beamed.

“That’s great Dumbledore. I was expecting him to be here sooner but I’m glad he’s coming now. It will be great
having him here.”

At Sirius’s word Snape snorted. Sirius glared at him.

“What’s your problem now Snape?” He asked Snape. Remus could sense trouble coming and whispered to Sirius too low for anyone else to hear.

“Don’t Sirius...just ignore him” But Sirius ignored him instead, still glaring at Snape waiting for an answer.

“Mhhmm?” He demanded

“It is simply that it’s beyond my understanding, how anyone can be happy at the thought of seeing that little trouble maker.”

Remus could see Sirius expression turn from amazement to furious in a second.

“I’ll be happy to see him Snivellus... because he’s my godson and I care for him.” He said in a deadly voice.

“Ah...yes...godson. Which makes you his godfather. The last time I knew, a child’s godfather is suppose to take care of a child should it parents pass away.” Snape smirked in triumph and gave his punch line. “How did that work out for you Black? Oh yes...I remember it didn’t did it?”

As stupid as sounded, it was all it took for Snape to make Sirius furious. He only had to mention how Sirius had failed in taking care of Harry. Not being able to be there for him and Sirius would always start yelling at him. Sometimes drawing his wand to throw a curse at Snape. But today that wasn’t enough. Sirius had been taking Remus’s advise for weeks now. Ignoring Snape. Now he wasn’t going to do that.

Sirius stood up and was around the table so fast that no one at the table really understood what was happening.
And before anyone had the time to stop him Sirius punched Snape in the face, hitting his jaw.
Snape was thrown backwards out of his chair and down on the floor.

All the four Weasley children along with Miss Granger and Tonks stood up to see better what was going on.
McGonagall sprang from her chair went to Snape and kneeled next to him checking him for injuries.

“Sirius!” Dumbledore yelled. “What on...” He started to say but Sirius started to yell at Snape.

“You care to repeat that Snivellus!” He said preparing to have another go at Snape but Arthur Weasley and Kingsley Shacklebolt grabbed his arms.

“Oh my...” Molly Weasley said under her breath, so busy watching the scenario that she didn’t notice when her pancakes started to burn.

“Let them have a go. The death eater deserves getting his arse kicked.” Moody said the only one still sitting, seemingly undisturbed, at the table.

Remus hurried to where Arthur and Kingsley were restraining Sirius. He put his hand on Sirius’s shoulder, stopping his struggling.

“It’s fine...Arthur...Kingsley...I’ll take care of Sirius. I think you should help McGonagall with Snape.”

“You sure?” Mr. Weasely asked him.

“Positive.” Remus said assuring them and they let go of Sirius, going to McGonagall to help her with Snape.

Remus grabbed Sirius’s arms and dragged him struggling from the kitchen, down the hallway and into the Black Family tree living room. There he pushed Sirius up against the wall, pinning him down in order to keep him from running away.

“Let...me...go...” Sirius said his breath ragged. “I’m... going to kill... that snivelling son of a bitch...”

“Sirius...what the fuck was that. It’s just Snape trying and achieving in pissing you off. He’s said what he said a million times before. Why did you get so angry now?”

“I don’t now... I just did.” Sirius answered his struggling diminishing.

“Don’t let him get to you like this. You are a grown up man.” Remus told him.

“But he makes me so angry Remy.” Sirius said looking desperately at Remus. “I just wanna...”

Remus knew what Sirius meant but he needed to talk some sense into his friend and to him mind came words that Sirius himself had said to him years ago. Remus told him.

“You can control the anger Sirius! You can control it! Don’t let it control you!”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“You can control the anger Sirius! You can control it! Don’t let it control you!”

Upon hearing those words and feeling Remus so close to him, echoing the words that were the beginning of their relationship all those years ago made Sirius lose it.
He kissed Remus.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Remus felt Sirius’s lips against his own and didn’t even think before he kissed him back.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

At first their kiss was slow, both men remembering the feel of their lips against the other’s. Soon the kiss became more heated and Sirius moved one of his hands, from Remus’s shoulder where he’d been resting it, downwards. He moved it under Remus’s jumper and stroked it over his stomach.

This little touch was all Remus needed. He felt his cock beginning to harden and at the same time he felt Sirius’s already rock hard erection against his upper thigh.

Sirius started to pull Remus’s jumper urging him to take it off and Remus obliged. He pulled of his jumper and threw it at the floor. Doing that his eyes wandered to the only half closed door in the room they were in. The Black Family tree living room. In number 12 Grimmauld Place. Which right now was filled with people. All of whom were in the kitchen only a few feet away. And some of those people were still children and he imagined their parents wouldn’t be too happy if they were to walk in on him and Sirius in their current state.

Remus drew up his wand and upon seeing it Sirius drew away from him.

“Remus.” He said his tone wary. “If this is too soon, too fast, whatever, tell me...you...you don’t need to hex me.”

Remus simply rolled his eyes at Sirius’s wariness and did a spell that closed and locked the doors to the living room then casted a solid silencing spell, completely soundproofing the room. Then he dropped his wand to the floor and wasted no time jumping Sirius again.

As their lips locked for the second time Sirius moaned and again started to tug and pull at Remus’s too many, and very offending clothing.

Remus was doing the same thing so in conclusion both men shed their clothes fast, almost never stopping their frantic snogging while doing so.

When both men were naked Sirius took his lips of Remus’s for a second only to ask in husked tone.

“The floor or the couch?”

Remus glanced over at the small loveseat and instead of answering he started to push Sirius down to the floor.

Sirius lay on his back, on the floor. Remus laid on top of him, covering his body with his own. The men kept kissing and Remus felt when Sirius moved his legs so he was laying between Sirius’s legs. Sirius knees were now positioned in a way that would give Remus a very good access to Sirius’s arse if he chose to.

Remus chose to. He put his fingers in his mouth covering them with saliva and moved his hand between Sirius’s buttocks. He circled Sirius’s entrance and then put his finger in. Soon he added another and the third quickly preparing Sirius, not feeling any patience to take it slow but still not wanting to hurt his lover.

When he felt Sirius was prepared enough he took Sirius’s legs and put them over his shoulders.

He positioned himself and entered in one long thrust, seated himself fully in Sirius’s unforgettably tight arse.

Both men gasped when they became one for the first time in over thirteen years.

Remus stayed still. Wanting Sirius to signal it when he was ready for him to move.
Sirius did more than signal.

“Please Remus...move...need you to...been too long.” Sirius begged him.

“Thirteen years.” Remus breathed as he drew out and slammed back in Sirius hole.

Remus sat a fast and frantic pace. Drawing out and slamming into Sirius at a nearly brutal speed. Nothing could be heard other than their ragged breaths and little moans and whimpers every now and then. It didn’t take long for Remus to feel himself getting close. He reached between them and enclosed Sirius’s neglected cock with his fist. As he thrust in one more time he gave Sirius’s cock a firm stroke and that was it.

Remus came “Sirius!” He screamed as he emptied himself inside of Sirius.

“Remus!” Sirius called as he shot his load over Remus and himself.

Before the afterglow settled in full force Remus managed to pull out of Sirius and lay down next to him, dragging Sirius into his embrace. They lay their caressing each other, bathing in the post-orgasm bliss.

A little over a year ago when they’d met for the first time in nearly twelve years, and hugged each other, they’d felt that their love for each other was still there. But now in that place, in that time was the first time they gave into it. They’d been ignoring the big, bright yellow elephant that was “the talk” but now that talk came to them just as easily as their frantic lovemaking had.

“I love you Remus. I still love you.” Sirius whispered into the air, too low for a normal human to hear. But Remus wasn’t a normal human and he knew, Sirius knew he’d heard this.

“I love you too Sirius.” Remus said in a bit higher volume. Wanting Sirius to hear this loud and clear. “I never stopped loving you.”

Sirius looked at him his eyes a little glazed over from the orgasm.

“I never stopped loving you either...sometime I just couldn’t think about you because all my memories of you were happy ones and the Dementors would suck them away from me if I thought of you. And I didn’t want to have my memories of you taken away from me. So it was better not to think of you. You understand that don’t you.”

The logic and love in that statement made Remus’s heart take a little jump.

“Of course I understand. I would’ve done the same thing.”

Sirius nodded solemn.

“So...” He said “Where are we now?”

“I would like to say we’re together.”

Sirius gave a small smile, took Remus into his arms, sighed content and said...

“Together.”

The rest of the summer and the winter that followed Remus and Sirius started to get to know one another again as lovers. Cleaning and getting number 12 into shape during the day. Talking during the evenings. Sleeping and making love during the nights.

Finally re-united after thirteen years.

TBC.

All righty then this was so not meant to happen. The sex wasn’t a part of the original plan but it just happened. Oh...well..Only one chapter left. Reviews?
