Living in the shadows

Title: Living in the shadows

Pairing: SiriusxRemus

Fandom : HP

Summary: Remus is in mourning for Sirius and relieves his past with the man he loved. Will his memories remind him that he is worthy of love? Slight prequel to Undeniable.

Notes: Obviously I don't own HP…if I had…well there would have been Draco and Harry in the end and not Harry and Ginny.

Chapter three

It had been two weeks since he'd woke up in the Shrieking Shack in Sirius' arms; and he still felt guilty about the claw marks on Sirius…

Until he realized Moony hadn't done it out of maliciousness. He'd marked Sirius and Sirius marked him back. He'd blushed like crazy when he realized it. Moony wanted Padfoot just as much as Remus wanted Sirius. This was not happening…it was too unconventional and Sirius' mother would kill him. No one in their right mind would allow their child to mate a monster like himself.

He didn't pull away when Sirius touched him but he did freeze; their fingers brushed each other when they walked to class, their thighs pressed together at the Gryffindor table during meals, their hands touched briefly and their eyes met when they studied. Remus was self-conscious and only bathed with the other boys around when he was awake enough to use a Glamour, no point in them being convinced he was abused. Sirius' wounds were hidden by the same manner, Sirius wasn't ashamed of the scars but he was terrified of getting Remus in more trouble. Sirius had also began to sleep walk into his bed the last few nights, waking up in Sirius' arms would be pleasant if he didn't wake up with a little surprise. He was too shy to solve the problem with his crush in his bed holding him so he'd learn a spell to get rid of his 'little problem'.

A soft moan from Sirius startled Remus, he asked softly, "Are you awake Siri?"

"Ngh…yeah…you're warm…you know that? Sorry about ending up in here again. I didn't do on purpose…"

Remus blinked, "It's fine…" being called warm again made him nervous…

Sirius snuggled, "Reminds me of…" he whispered in Remus' ear, "…reminds me of waking up with you after that long night with Moony…"

Remus blushed, "Siri!"

Sirius asked softly, "Um…if I liked you as more then a friend…would you be upset with me?"

Remus gasped, "Uh…no…" he'd never expected to hear that…

Sirius lifted his chin, "Good…" he claimed the shocked teen's lips with a hard kiss. Blindly reaching for Remy's wand to cast a privacy spell.

Remus moaned softly, "Siri…" kissing Sirius was heaven…

They kissed for a while before Sirius hugged Remus to his chest, "Go back to sleep Remy…it's a Saturday. You can do your homework after lunch."

Remus blushed, "Okay…" the playboy of Gryffindor was taking it slow…that was nice…

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
