Summary
It's something that never would have happened if the minuscule events of his life hadn't lined up in a certain order to deliver him to this exact position. Remus takes a sip of his coffee, wincing slightly from his misprediction of the drink's temperature. His body starts to relax against the subway window when another train passes by them in the opposite direction.
And there he was.
Head also propped against the window, he stares out into the dark tunnels as he absentmindedly plays with the silver ring strung through his bottom lip. Tall, though not as tall as Remus, and wearing a leather jacket. A red beanie is tucked over his dark hair, of which is braided in a neat plait down his shoulder, with a black instrument case slung over his back.
Their eyes meet. Remus observes that his were sterling grey, contrasting starkly with his own amber, before the other boy stands up straighter and flashes a grin at him, his entire face lighting up with the drastic change. Remus feels the corners of his own mouth curve up into a similar beam.
Then, just as the order of events lined up to deliver him to this moment, it unravels, tugs, yanks, and pulls him back into the void, away from the mysterious boy.
