Letters To My Lupin
Pairing: Remus Lupin x Fem! Reader CW: Occasional swearing but thatâs about it. Genre: Fluff
Summary: Remus decided to find out whoâs behind giving him little notes and chocolates ever since his fourth year at Hogwarts that made him fall in love.
Note: Itâs time for my manâs fic! (Donât let Regulus see this) This is just pure fluff guys (and self-indulgent tbh) please enjoy! I had so much fun making this! (The song I listened to while making this is Hey Lover! - Wabie, you guys might want to listen to it while reading this ;) ) Photos used are from Pinterest! Credits to the owner!

âThe man that you are, Remus Lupin. It honestly drives me crazy.â
Normally, this would be weird and downright creepy for other people if they receive this kind of note from an anonymous senderâ but for Remus, it isnât.
Remus feels his brows raise, a small smile grazes upon his lips, chuckling to himself as he folds up the small piece of paper and tucks it to his cardigan pocket, quite amused. It sort of became a part of his routine to receive letters and chocolates (mainly kisses) from his secret admirer almost every day since the start of their fourth year.
He found it weird at first, feeling a bit creeped out as he thought it was a bit stalkerish. He would find random notes to his bed with a Hersheyâs kiss after taking a shower or when he got back from classes, on some occasions it will be delivered through the owl in the great hall (which was quite embarrassing in his opinion). He often catches himself waiting for the little note and chocolates to just magically appear wherever he is at the moment.
As time passed, he was actually looking forward to the little harmless notes he receives. It felt surprisingly good? Somehow, his heart fills with warmth and a smile subconsciously forms on his lips. He even has a small box hidden under his bed which was filled with the little notes you send him throughout the years.
It makes him feel like he could be loved; heâs worthy of being loved.
He took the Hersheyâs chocolate bar that came along with the note, opening it and taking a bite. Seems like his secret admirer was feeling pretty generous today.
âMoony, can I have some?â Sirius asks, eyeing the chocolate in his friendâs hands.
âNo. Itâs mine.â
âAw come on! Are you seriously still upset I just took one kiss from your not-so-hidden stash?! Youâve got loads of âem mate!â Sirius threw his arms up in the air, complaining. âItâs mine, Pads. Go buy yours.â He reasons out but breaking a piece off his chocolate bar and giving some to an awaiting and smug Sirius.
âIt tastes better when itâs free,â
âSeems like Moony got a note, huh?â James teased, elbowing the tall werewolf as he saw the paper poking out of the pocket of Remusâ cardigan and the chocolate in his hands.
âWhat does it say, Moons?â Peter asked curiously.
Remus blushed, a shade of pink dusting his face as he shakes his head.
âCome on, Moony! You always used to tell us!â Sirius whines tugging Remusâ arm, shaking his dear friend. James laughed, a sudden glint in his eye. âPads, stop it- âcue a protest from Sirius. âOur Moonyâs blushing!â James teased in a sing song voice. âOh sod off, Prongs!â Remus retorts back.
âYou think we donât notice mate?â
Remus fell silent, flustered. Prongs caught him off guard. âI donât know what youâre talking about Prongs- â
âYouâre in love, Moony.â Sirius cuts him off, smiling cheekily at one of his best mates. Remus raised an eyebrow and âYou think I would fall for a person who sends me letters anonymously?â
âWell, yes?â Sirius smiled sheepishly as Remus shot him an unimpressed look. âYouâre secretly a hopeless romantic, Moony. Donât think we donât notice you reading those romance books when you thought no one is looking.â Peter joined in, smiling.
He just sighs, rubbing his hands on his face. He canât deny it, theyâre right. It makes him feel stupid that he felt attraction to whoever is sending letters to him, but he canât help it.
âY/n, youâre seriously going to make the poor boy have diabetes by the time he turns 21.â Your friend shakes her head, seeing the overflowing number of chocolates scattered on your bed as you decide what to give him throughout the week.
âHe just looks so adorable; I canât help it!â You reasoned out, finally picking up the Reese cups at the foot of your bed and deciding you (more like your owl) will give it to him tomorrow.
âMerlinâs beard, Y/n! Youâre so fucking in love with Remus Lupin. Youâve probably already spent hundreds of galleons already just to get your hands on muggle chocolate.â She told you, knowing that you bribed one of your muggle born classmates to buy you some during the break.
âNot hundreds, probably around a thousand?â You shrugged, grabbing a quill and a piece of parchment, smiling to yourself as you write. âY/n! Youâve got to be kidding me!â Your friend exclaimed, stunned.
âEh, itâs alright.â You waved her off, folding the piece of parchment and attaching the chocolate to it.
âIâm seriously gonna tell Sirius one of these days that youâre the one who sends love letters to his friend.â
âAnd Iâm also gonna seriously tell him that you secretly wish you would date each other.â
Remus stared at the Reese Cup and note that was delivered in front of him as he ate breakfast in the great hall. A small smile crept through his lips as he opened the note. âI hope you like Reese cups :) Have a great day!â
The owl hoots, trying to get Remusâ attention. âAh yes, I almost forgot. Sorry!â He took out a treat, feeding it to the owl before grabbing the little note he made, tying it securely so it wouldnât fall. âGive that to your owner, yeah?â The owl then flew away.
âFinally making a move, Moony?â Sirius asked, smirking as he saw the whole interaction. âI guess? I need to find out whoâs been sending them before we graduate, because I might never get the chance to.â
âOh my Merlin! You wouldnât believe it! Remus just sent me a letter!â You exclaimed, entering your dorm room, expecting your friend to be there.
Well she is, but two things were out of the ordinary: A boy was in your dorm room hanging out with your friend, and it was Sirius Black. Your stomach dropped. âAh shit.â You mumbled, feeling the heat creep up your cheeks. You couldnât even look at him, worried heâll tease you and you just might combust from the utter embarrassment youâre feeling.
âI see youâre the one whoâs sending our Moony little notes?â He grinned, acknowledging you. All you could do was mutter a small âYeah.â wanting the castle floors to swallow you whole now.
âItâs alright, Y/n. Iâm pretty sure heâs already head over heels for you. He might just marry you then and there when you finally decide to meet him.â Sirius chuckles.
âSirius! What does it say, Y/N?â Your friend asks, clearly happy and eager for you.
âHe wants to meet me,â You blushed as Sirius whistled and your friend squeals.
âThatâs my Moony!â
âThatâs great! When?â
You gulped, âLater evening, an hour before our Astronomy class shared with Gryffindors.â
To say that you were nervous was an understatement. Your felt your heart rate pick up every time you heard footsteps echoing, getting closer to your meeting place for it to only pass by. You kept having these mini heart attacks every now and then as you patiently waited for Remus to (hopefully) arrive.
âY/n?â A voice called out, making you turn your head in that direction.
Remus felt his world stop, seeing the girl who took his breath away since they were first years. You offered him a nervous smile as he slowly walked towards her.
He would never admit it, but he secretly pictured you to be the one that was writing notes and giving him those chocolates that made his day. It was probably the main reason why he felt attracted to the person behind the notes and chocolates he receives. Although he made himself believe it was far from the truth, there is no way you wouldâve done those when there were more good-looking guys other than him.
Except it was real. Youâre standing in front of him and looking up with those eyes of yours that seem to enchant him and make him fall for you even deeper. âHi, Rems.â Biting your lip nervously, calling him by the nickname you gave him in your letters.
 Merlin, maybe Sirius is right; he might marry you right there and then.
Scribbles and Sketches
Pairing: Sirius Black x Fem! Reader
CW: Just two idiots in love with each other and the occasional swearing.
Genre: Fluff with a sprinkle of angst
Summary: Sirius has a habit of drawing in every possession he owns. It also doesnât help the fact that itâs the way his crush finds out his feelings.
Note: This is inspired back then when my crush (at that time) sat next to me did a sketch of me while in Biology class. Enjoy! Photos used are from pinterest, credits to the owner!

Sirius loves to doodle, whether it was little stars on his converse shoes, some random quotes he found funny that he decided to write in the back pages of his notebooks, or how thereâs always a little scribble of âS.O.Bâ on the first pages of his books (that he never really read, he just saw you once or twice holding or reading as you pass by him).
Walburga hates it, when she saw Siriusâ expensive hard bound books have his name scrawled out messily on the side, she was furious. She called it âVandalizingâ and would punish Sirius back then for acting like a âmudbloodâ and disgracing the beautiful pristine books with a childish scrawl.
Did he do it again numerous times before leaving to spite his birth giver? Yes, definitely, and certainly.
The night he left, he made sure to splash black paint onto the walls, carpets, and curtainsâ basically everywhere, he even managed to get the ceiling too. He could only imagine the horrified expression and the shrill scream Walburga did after discovering the thrashed room. A smirk of satisfaction never fails to appear on his face every time he thinks of it.
âDrawing her again, Pads?â James looked over Siriusâ shoulder, wanting to take a peek at his friendâs journal. Sirius hissed, shooing him away. âGo away, Prongs. Iâm busy.â James lets out a snort, âYeah right.â
âJust ask her out already, pads. Youâre always ogling at her during classes itâs a bit creepy.â Peter teased, laughing at Siriusâ offended face.
âSod off, wormtail.â
Remus took a break from reading his book to look at his squabbling friends. Seeing the journal in Siriusâ hands, he got curious. Placing the book down, he walked over to Siriusâ bed where James, Sirius, and Peter are. âThatâs actually a pretty good sketch of her, mate.â Remusâ eyes travelled down to the right corner of the page, eyes bugging out at first then emitting a loud laugh.
âMy future Mrs. Black? Really?â
Sirius grumbles, clearly embarrassed as a light blush coated his cheeks. âDonât judge.â
âYouâre such a sap, Pads!â James laughed, slapping his thighs repeatedly, finding it completely hilarious.
âYeah, weâll see whoâs the one laughing on our wedding day.â Sirius grumbles, closing the journal and placing it in his school bag absentmindedly.
âIf you even get to speak a simple âhelloâ to her without tripping over your feet that is.â
The only thing keeping Sirius passing out and snoring in his boring Divination class is you humming next to him as you write in a blank piece of parchment. Merlin, he feels grateful and all that, but really? In the one subject he has no motivation for? Sirius grumbled; if it was transfigurations, then he couldâve shown off to you.
You didnât fail to notice his grumbling state. Misunderstanding his actions, you thought it had something to do with you. Negative thoughts swirled around your head. Does he not like being your partner?
Putting your quill down, you felt nervousness settle in the pit of your stomach. You discreetly look to your left, seeing Sirius with a bored expression on his face. Alright, maybe you were overthinking things. He probably just finds this Divination class bollocks like you do, but you still folded the paper and placing it back into your bag, feeling a bit paranoid that he might see what you wrote.
Classes soon ended, and students hurriedly piled out, eager to get out of the boring class, muttering among themselves. You began to pack up your things, and out of the corner of your eye, you saw Sirius standing and about to exit the classroom.
âSirius, wait!â You hurriedly grabbed him, your hands on his wrist. You blushed, trying to ignore how you felt butterflies erupt in your stomach and the tingles that you felt when you made contact with him.
A look of surprise and a light blush coated his cheeks. âY-yeah...? Whatâs up?â He stuttered. Sirius heard his friends howl in laughter outside the door, clearly spying on them. Thank Merlin that you didnât notice (or didnât care if you did notice) as you smiled warmly at him.
âUm, so are you free this Saturday? I figured it would be best if we both worked together on the essay since... weâre partnersâŠâ Oh for the love of Merlin, please have mercy on these two people who are too coward to say they like each other. Sirius blinksânot once, not twice, but three times. You can hear Marlene snickering in the background at the exchange.
Was he hearing this right? You? Asking him out? (Okay, not really, but in his mind, it still counts as you asking him out) He was pulled out of his thoughts when you chuckled nervously, awaiting his reply. âSirius...? You in there?â Sirius cleared his throat. "Erm, yeah! Yeah, see you at the library then?â
You smiled warmly, and Sirius thought he had been blessed by Merlin himself. âYeah, see you at 9:00 a.m. Bye!â He watches you go to Marlene and Lily, both looking at him with knowing looks.
âBye.â He breathes out, still looking at you.
âMerlin, Padfoot is whipped.â Peter shakes his head, smirking.
âThat he is.â James laughed, watching a pink-faced Sirius make his way towards them. âCat got your tongue, Pads?â James teased, elbowing Sirius who tried to shove him off. âMore like Y/n got his tongue.â Peter snickered; Sirius turned redder.
âNah, how could Y/n even get his tongue when he couldnât even get a kiss on the cheek.â Remus laughed, joining in the teasing.
âYou guys are terrible mates.â
âWe love you too, Pads.â
You bit your lip, looking at both outfits sprawled out your bed. âLily! Please help me pick one!â The said girl looked up from her charms essay, standing up and walking towards you.
âAre you going on a date, Y/n?â
âNo, just doing some divination work with Sirius.â
Marlene perked up, her smirk evident on her features. âAre you sure itâs just divination? Not something else?â Lily scolded her âOh hush Marlene! Y/n isnât like that.â She turned to face you, âI think the red sweater and ripped jeans will look good on you.â She smiles, you smiled gratefully. âThanks Lils, knew I could always count on you. Not like the other person here.â You teased, eyeing Marlene jokingly who pouted âHey!â
Sirius groans, plopping down his bed. It seems like he couldnât get a single wink of sleep. He tried everything, even taking a walk outside into the wee hours of the night. Remus throws a pillow at him, grumpier as the full moon is only days away. âIf you donât wanna sleep then at least let us get a fucking good nightâs rest, Pads.â
He ignored his friend but kept quiet not to disturb his friends. âMerlin, the things you do to me woman...â he grumbled, rubbing his hand exasperatedly over his face. Opening his trunk, he decided to mull over what he was going to wear for the next day.
âAlright, do I look presentable?â You turn towards your two friends, dressed in the slightly oversized red sweater and ripped jeans Lily had recommended, topping it off with a maroon converse with little flowers and leaves embroidered around it. Pretty basic but eh, it works.
âKinda meh, letâs put on some make up, yeah?â Marlene gestured to you to sit down, looking at the mirror, you frowned. âI only know how to do blush and lips though...â
âThatâs where I come in, letâs make Black drop on his knees and fawn over you.â
Sirius glanced nervously at his watch, uncharacteristically quiet and early; he was a whole hour early, a huge change for the boy whoâs always running late and calling it being âfashionably lateâ. By the way he was behaving it looks like he got stood up on a date, which was quite amusing to other students who are seeing this new side of him. Just sitting and having nothing to do makes him even more impatient, so he did what he did bestâ sketching you.
He took out his journal which he surprisingly brought and took out a pencil and an eraser he stole from Remus. He pictures you in his head, how you hum while scribbling something in a parchment next to him during your last divination class. He started to sketch, expertly drawing you as he did hundreds of times before. It took him about an hour to finish it, even having the time to detail it. He smiles lightly, adding âMy love.â in the right corner. It was not just some sketch as he likes to call it, itâs an art piece.
You are his museâ much like he is to your poems.
âSirius, hey.â You smiled, sitting down beside him quietly, oblivious to a drawing he made that was practically glaring at you, waiting to be noticed. âSorry I was late.â
Sirius blinks, looking at you âAh, itâs no problem! I just got here too.â you smiled, pulling out some quills and parchment they would need for the study session as Sirius grabbed the books from his bag. What you both failed to notice was the little piece of parchment containing a painfully obvious poem about him.
Ah, talk about being blindly in love.
âAlright, letâs get this over with. I would seriously drop out of this class next year...â She mumbles, grabbing Siriusâ books without much of a thought.
âIâll go start with the reading about tea leaf reading then- whatâs that?â She stopped in her tracks, staring at what seemed to be a perfect drawing of her. Sirius blanched, feeling his heart drop to his stomach. Shit, you were definitely not supposed to see that. Sirius wanted to cry and disintegrate on the spot.
Your eyes scanned the page quickly, eyes catching the words âMy Loveâ in the corner in Siriusâ handwriting. Your face quickly heated up as your heartbeat went faster, your stomach doing flips. You were speechless, eyes gravitated to the drawing. Sirius quickly slammed shut his journal, pulling you out of your trance.
âItâs not what it looks like!â He tries to save face. Although he immediately wanted to punch himself as he saw you visibly deflate at his statement. He can already feel Remus whacking him upside the head while James scolded him. As if Potter boy would do any better when facing Lily Evans. You bit your lip âOh.â
An awkward silence ensued for a few moments, Sirius looking anywhere but you and you looking down biting your lip. âUh, I know you said itâs not what it looks likeâŠâ You started, making Sirius whip his head in your direction. âBut I just wanted to tell you⊠That I fancy you.â She saw the poem she wrote during divination class poking out of some of the blank parchments, Marlene and Lily had probably placed it among your parchments. She carefully hands it to him. âIâll just do the rest of the essay, donât worry. I know you donât like this subject.â She quickly packed her things up and headed straight to the exit.
He sat there dumbly, reading the poem you gave to him, eyes widening when he realized it was quite obvious that the love poem was about him. Merlin, he done fucked up his chances of being with the girl of his dreams.
Seemingly out of nowhere, Remus grabbed his wrist and dragged him to a section of the library where not many people are to see the rest of the Marauders with disappointed looks on their faces. âReally, padfoot?â James frowned. âYouâve done it, pads.â Peter sighs, shaking his head.
âJust what the fuck was that, Black?!?â Remus hissed, Sirius bit his lip and looked away. âLily told me how Y/n was excited, sheâll kill us for sure.â James shivered while Peter gulps âDonât forget about Marlene.â
âDid your exchange your braincells for your fucking hair, padfoot?!â Remus still hasnât finished scolding his friend. âI know I know, Moony. I fucked up.â He grumbles, looking at his Doc Martens. âTo think that we even planned this with Lily and MarleneâŠâ Remus grumbles.
âWhat? What plan?â
âSetting you up with Y/n, we thought this will be the perfect time.â James told him, âApparently notâ Remus grumbles. âY/nâs got a crush on you for ages, Pads.â Peter told him. âAnd how would you know this?â Sirius found it hard to believe.
âAside from the fact that she practically confessed to you earlier, Lily accidentally slipped up and told me.â James shrugged. They watch as Sirius practically scrambles out of the library, presumably off to find you. Remus folded his arms to his chest.
âWell at least he saved one braincell just in case.â
âY/n! Hold on!â Sirius called, seeing you were about to enter the girlsâ part of the dormitory. You ignored him, continuing to walk. He managed to catch up, holding your hand to stop you. âY/n pleaseâŠâ You turned to him, eyes swimming with disappointment. âWhat is it, Black?â He visibly winced. âI-I take it back.â He told her, you raised one eyebrow in suspicion, âTake what back?â
âWhat I said earlier, in the library.â
âI donât need you to feel bad for me.â
âIâm not, believe me.â
You pressed your lips into a thin line, conflicted. Should you believe him?
âIâve also been hopelessly in love with you, Y/n.â Your eyebrows shot in surprise. He continued, âI⊠I was so embarrassed and panicked since⊠my journal was full of you.â Sirius confessed. You were about to reply when he opened his mouth again. âAnd your poem; fuck, it made me feel things. Merlin, Iâm so stupid, Iâm so sorry love-â
âIf you really are sorry then just shut up and kiss me, Black.â

Missed Hints
Pairing: Remus Lupin x Fem! Reader CW: Language Genre: Fluff Summary: Remus Lupin wanted to make his feelings known; he is trying numerous ways to tell you, but you are simply quite oblivious to the poor boyâs advances.
Note: Am I a bit too obsessed with Rems? Probably. This one's a bit shorter than the rest. Enjoy reading! Pictures used are from Pinterest, credits to the owners!

Sometimes, all Remus wanted to do was run into a wall to knock himself out.
Maybe itâll help formulate a reason why you couldnât pick up his signals and actions that he wants to be more than friends. Please cut this poor boy some slack; heâs literally done everything he could to hint that he likes you.
The problem is that you are quite oblivious- being as dense as the castle walls in Hogwarts. Although this hasnât stopped Remus from pursuing you after several pitiful (also quite funny) attempts, if anything, it made him work even harder to let you know he fancies you.
âY/n, wait up!â Remus calls out to you, leaving his mates, who were whispering words of encouragement and âgood luckâ to him. Hearing your name made you turn around, a book in your hand, as you smiled at the taller boy. âRemus, hi!â He smiled, walking beside you and settling in at the same pace as you. Suddenly, a friend of yours piped up, âY/n, we have to go get something in the dorms; stay with Remus, yeah?â before you could even reply, they were rushing to leave. Remus could only blush as your friends shot him a thumbs up before escaping the scene, trying to stop the giggles escaping their mouths.
It was all up to him now.
âErm, so how were the holidays?â he asked, trying to act casually as he placed his hands in his pockets. The question made you hum, your eyes lit up. "Oh, it was wonderful! We spent the holidays in Canada, lots of snow, I made a snow man and visited some parks.â She nods, holding her book closer to her chest, seemingly lost in thought. âIt was also freezing.â Remus hums in agreement. âIs that so? Iâm glad you had fun.â He smiles, and you both walk towards the great hall to have dinner.
You looked up at him with a bright smile and said, âTell me about yours, Rems! Iâm sure it was also fun.â Remus blushed, hearing his nickname roll off your tongue so casually. Even after all the years youâve known each other, simply calling him by his nickname that you specially made for him has an effect that never faded away. âWell, it was just simple, really. I just stayed at Jamesâ and had fun.â He shrugged his shoulders, smiling at you. He could care less about his holiday shenanigans, preferring you just talk his ear off about every little thing you did, he will absorb what you say word by word, like a sponge.
 "Well, James is quite an interesting person.â She hummed in agreement, Remus felt his eyebrow twitch, a small twinge similar to jealousy creeping up into him. What about him? Do you think heâs interesting too? Was Remus someone who could be worthy of your time?
 âYeah, that bloke was conjuring up some pranks to pull this year.â
You let out a small giggle and oh merlin please take the poor boy to Madame Pomfrey because he thinks his poor heart canât handle all the feelings he has towards you. Remus Lupin is such a simp.
He clears his throat, trying to muster up some courage as he asks you the million-galleon question. âSo, are you free tomorrow? Itâs Hogsmeade day.â Remus smiles, thankfully, his clammy hands are kept under his pockets, making his nervousness almost unnoticeable. Your eyes lit up âOh! I forgot, but yes, I am free tomorrow.â Remus saw his chance and took it. âGreat, how about we hang out in Three Broomsticks?â
For Merlinâs sake, please make this turn into Lupinâs favor. Heâs done too many ways to confess to your clueless self.
âThat would be fantastic! I can bring my friends along, and you can bring James, Sirius, and Peter too!â you clapped your hands excitedly, not noticing how the werewolf visibly deflated as you exclaimed. Right, might as well reject him right now on the spot to end his misery.
He could probably shout âI love youâ and stare at you directly- but youâll just think heâs talking to someone behind you. Remus had also tried to pass you a note containing his feelings for you back then. Grabbing it without much of a thought, you passed it to your friend, thinking he wants you to give it to her, who shakes her head and sighs, looking at Remus.
The rest of the Marauders and your friends think Remusâs plans of confessing to you were a lost cause.
âOur poor MoonyâŠâ Peter frowns, as James shakes his head. âAt this point, Moony should just kiss her.â Sirius sighed, feeling pity for his friend. âShe would probably think it was a friendly kiss.â Peter snorts, trying to control his laughter, James glared at Sirius jokingly before pushing him. âBugger off Pads, Y/Nâs just⊠super innocent? I guess.â They resumed watching the two from a distance, a look of anticipation evident in their faces.
âI was kind of hoping itâll be just us?â Remus grins nervously, sitting beside you as you reach the Gryffindor table. You took a bite out of the apple pie from your plate before replying, âSure, itâll still be fun. Youâre a great company, Rems.â She smiles, before resuming on eating the remaining apple pie slice. Little do you know the simple compliment you made had a tremendous effect on Remus.
âMoony, your smile hasnât left your face ever since Y/n agreed. Stop it, Iâm getting scared.â Sirius states, Remus turns to look, a hint of a small dopey smile on his face. âHm?â
âOh merlin, Y/n broke him.â Peter blanches. They were smacked upside their heads lightly by James. âCome on now, donât rain on his parade. Moonâs just⊠well- over the moon.â James laughs lightly, Sirius snorts while Peter tries to hide his smile. Remus rolled his eyes playfully, opening his trunk to pick out the clothes heâs going to wear tomorrow. âWhatever, now help me decide what to wear, you sods.â
âRems! Over here!â You exclaimed, standing on your tiptoes, arms up and waving in his directions. Remus smiles, maneuvering through the line of students waiting to get out of Hogwarts and to Hogsmeade. âY/n! you look⊠pretty.â He blushes, drinking in the sight of you. Remus could swear on his life that he saw a light shade of pink dust your cheek as you tucked a stray hair behind your ear.
âThank you, I like your sweater. It suits you.â You said, eyes going over his body and one of Remusâs signature sweaters. You canât deny it; you like what you see, you were pulled from your thoughts when someone spoke.
âOi! Get a move on you half-blood and goody-two-shoes! Holding up the bloody line is what youâre doing!â Evan Rosier, a Slytherin student complained a few feet away from you and Remus, Mulciber and Dolohov backs their fellow Slytherin and friend up. He snarls, those blokes, looks like theyâll have a new target for one of their nasty pranks.
âIf I were you, I would shut my mouth.â Remus warns, standing in front of you, blocking your frame from their view.
Evan raised one eyebrow, amusement swimming in his eyes. âWhat are you going to do? Pesky little Gryffindor like you are always running around trying to be brave.â He taunts, moving closer to their direction.
âRems, Iâm fine. Letâs go, yeah?â She gently tugs the sleeve of his sweater, he looks down at you, his expression softening. âAlright then.â He threw one last warning look at Rosier over his shoulder; that punk needs to just wait and see whatâs going to come and bite his ass.
The two of you are sitting in the Three Broomsticks, talking about basically anything under the sun. Well, you mostly talked while Remus just listens, humming and sometimes sharing his two cents on the topic you are on.
âRems, thank you.â
Remusâ eyebrows shot up in confusion, âThank you? What for?â
âEarlier, Evan Rosier.â
âAh, that prick. It was nothing, y/n.â He offers a gentle smile; he wants to touch your hand that was directly across his from the table but ultimately deciding against it, the last thing he wants to do is make you feel uncomfortable.
âThank you for being my friend. Youâre an amazing person who deserves the world.â She smiles, slowly taking his hand onto hers and squeezing it tightly.
He felt a crack in his heart. âYeah, you are too.â He managed to choke out, offering a wry smile.
Friends. Is that it? Is he just one of the many friends you have in your life? Is he a friend that will slowly drift away after you graduate from Hogwarts? Merlin, he would even count himself lucky if you invited him to be at your wedding, and if he wants to push his luck then he might even be the godfather to one of your future kids.
You furrowed your brows, âIs there something wrong, Rems?â He looks at you, quickly shaking his head. âNothingâs wrong. Why do you ask?â You hummed, âWell, you have this kind of haunted look on you when youâre bothered about something; youâre doing it right now.â
Remus blinks, even he himself wasnât aware of that. He closed his eyes and sighed; fuck it. Heâll push his luck to the extremes by confessing his love for you. Doesnât matter if you see him as just a friend, you deserve to know.
âY/n, I have to tell you something.â
âOf course. What would that be?â
âWell, I donât know how to tell you this without being upfront about itâŠâ He starts, you urged him to continue; well, here goes nothing.
âY/n, I-â
âTwo butterbeers, correct?â
Remus wants to pull his hair out of frustration as the server walked towards them and set down the butterbeers they ordered, interrupting his speech. You smiled, thanking them before turning to Remus, who was frowning.
âWhat was it you were trying to say, Rems?â You asked, sipping your butterbeer.
âI like you, a lot. Ever since we met.â He simply blurts out quickly, as if heâs scared someone is going to interrupt again. You blink slowly, setting your butterbeer down gently.
âI like you too, Remus.â
âNo- you donât understand,â He shakes his head as you furrowed your eyebrows, utterly confused.
âI fancy you, love.â He emphasizes, taking both of your hands into his large ones, looking at you straight in the eyes, completely serious. She widens her eyes ever so slightly, her heart rate speeding up a bit.
âWhy didnât you tell me? Iâve always fancied you too, Rems.â
Remus felt as if the time slowed down, his heartbeat pulsing faster, eyes blinking owlishly, his jaw slack in shock.
Did he hear that right? Please tell him that he heard that right.
âI-I⊠I gave you hints, love!â He sputtered, âBut youâve just ignored them every single time!â She frowns, âI didnât noticeâŠâ Remus agreed, âForgive me, but you were quite oblivious.â A small smile was on his face.
âYou couldâve just said outright that you fancy me, Rems.â She chuckles, a faint blush on her cheeks.
âIf you like me too, then why didnât you tell me?â
âI didnât want to force you.â She said, looking at the beverage in her hand. His eyes softened, âForce me? To what, love?â
She sighs, looking up at him. âI didnât want you to force yourself to try to love me just because I feel that way for you.â Â Before Remus could even speak, she opened her mouth again, âI know you, Remus. You wouldâve tried either way, thatâs just who you are.â She chuckles, sipping butterbeer before continuing.
âYou have a heart of gold, Rems. Thatâs one of the things I love about you.â She rubs her thumb across his scarred knuckles gently. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up, the simple and gentle touch made his spine shiver.
If this was some kind of dream, then he would be more than happy to not wake up.
âCan I kiss you?â He breathes out, making you giggle. You stood up from your seat and leaned towards him, you can feel and smell his peppermint toothpaste fanning against your lips, beckoning you closer.
âYou donât even have to ask.â You closed the distance between you and sealed both of your lips with a kiss.
