Meeting again

Summary:

Remus Lupin was a very happy, single man He didn't mind being alone. No, being single is amazing, he doesn't have to be aware of anyone else. He could do as he pleased. He was always alone in his cold and lonely apartment.
Okay maybe, he wasn’t very happy single But what could he do about it?

 

OR….Remus leaves his phone number in his favourite book in the library. He’s shocked when he’s texted by his ‘ex-boyfriend’ from 15 years ago

Notes:

Hi, this is my first fic ever. I don't actually know if it's any good, but please leave comments on things that could be better. Also if there are any errors please let me know! (English isn't my first language but I'm trying :))

Chapter Text

Remus Lupin was a very happy, single man He didn't mind being alone. No, being Single is amazing. Okay maybe, he wasn’t very happy single But what could he do about it?

 

‘No Lily, I am not going to put my PHONE Number in a library book. Do you realize how stupid that sounds? My phone number. If someone finds it….’ ‘Yes exactly nothing can happen Rem. It’s a great idea’ she chirps back. Okay so maybe she was right. He was a bit unhappy. He had shagged people of course. But never anything serious. Just quikies in a bathroom stall from some weird sketchy club. He was looking for something more serious.

‘Okay, but what do I write?’ And that’s how this started. Remus put his phone number and a message in his favorite book, with little to no hope anything might come from it.

 

UNKNOWN

Hi Moony, I found your message in the library (great choice of book btw). Is the offer still on?

 

Omg, omg what would he do now? He actually got an answer

“Hi moony, I found your message in the library is the offer still on?”

What do I say?

Well, is the offer still on?

Uh, yes? Idk I don’t even know this person.

This was a stupid idea

Remus, just calm down, and maybe you know, answer the question?

Yeah, that’s a good idea.

 

TO UNKNOWN

Hi, yes the offer is still on.

Great! I do feel kinda weird not knowing you, maybe we could get to know each other a bit better first?

Yeah, yeah I’d like that too. 

Great! Can I just ask you something?

 WHY in god’s name would you put your phone number in a public place?
