Summary
It's been two days since they got a good night's sleep, much less a moment's rest, and now that they're finally safe and ready for a nap, Sirius Black starts a fucking fight. Remus can take care of himself dammit!
---
"Sirius." There's this voice that Remus uses sometimes that makes Sirius feel like he's in trouble with the teacher that, most times, zips him up better than anything else. He purses his lips, irritated, and scowls at Remus from under his eyebrows. "You see with your own eyes that I'm in one piece," Remus continues, and waits until Sirius, reluctantly, minutely, nods before carrying on. "You did everything right, I promise. It would have been far worse without you there. Okay? And even worse than that if you'd had your head cracked in two."
Sirius sighs and nods again, but finds his eyes trailing down to the bruise on Remus's thigh, looking dark and painful in the dim light coming from the small overhead lamp above the stove. The fight gone out of him, his anger is impotent and grating, an itching agita at the back of his mind looking for somewhere else to go.
