    Summary

    “How could you possibly know what I was going to say?” Sirius blusters, lifting his head from the bed to look at James incredulously.

    James returns his stare, deadpan, and finally lowers the magazine.

    “You were going to go off on a tangent again about how hot Remus looked today and how badly you want to kiss him, shag him, shack up with him and adopt many children—in that exact order.”

    “Was not!” Sirius squawks, but his voice – the traitor - betrays him and comes out too high-pitched to continue to feign he wasn't about to say... well, exactly that.

    --
    or, a best friends to lovers story set over a summer at the Lupin cottage where Sirius is hopelessly in love with Remus and attempts to come to terms with his feelings, his sexuality and the dynamics his crush might impact. He consults four noteworthy people in his life for love advice, and eventually, the most important one.

    Summary

    For all that the teasing in the Great Hall hurt him, two words float back to Remus’ memory making him ache. ‘My Moony.’

    Remus stares pointedly back into his book. He knows he won’t be able to look at Sirius and not cave.

    “Remus, darling,” Sirius starts with a teasing melodrama, effectively punching Remus in the stomach. “You have got to start talking to me again.” Don’t look at him. “Because someone used a sticking charm on the Potters and they physically cannot be parted. Peter is snogging now, and all the girls hate me.”

    ‘You’re better company than being completely alone, I guess,’ is what Remus hears. It’s better this way.

    “And I miss you,” Sirius adds quietly.

    -

    In which Remus loves Sirius so much it hurts, and Sirius can’t figure out why Remus doesn’t want to be his friend anymore.

    Summary

    Just as he was about to close the door, there was a very distinctive woof that came from about knee height.

     

    Remus looked down at the shaggy black dog, and imploring puppy dog eyes met tired brown ones.

     

    “Oh,” Remus said out loud.

     

    In which Sirius lies low at Lupin's and it is easy to fall back in love.
