Hogwarts Castle
1:03 AMToday was it. The day that Sirius had been waiting for for months. And yet, ever since his recognition a little under a week ago, he couldn't help but feel that something was off. Remus had been a little distant, and Sirius figured he was feeling guilty about meeting with Rose.
But today was it. No more secrets. They'd meet and everything would be fine. Right?

Remus lay awake in his bed, hoping to god Sirius slept for once. He stared at his ceiling, head racing with thoughts.
Would Sirius come clean that they knew, he was moony?
Can I trust Sirius? I mean he kept this from me and this isn't that big of a deal, what else could they be hiding?
No, Sirius wouldn't do anything to hurt me, he's my boyfriend for gods sake.
How exactly do I know he's not hiding something else?
I don't.
Remus turned over and stared at his partner, who thankfully, was asleep. Oh god, what am I gonna do?

Remus got up and dressed in a dark green sweater and a pair of corduroys. He slipped out of the dorm to find Lily sitting in the common room.
"Today's the big day isn't it?" She asked, a smile pulling on the corner of her mouth.
"Yeah, it is." Remus responded.
"You look...not as excited as I thought you would be." Lily said.
Remus shrugged, "I don't know, part of me is excited that there won't be any secrets between us, and then the pessimist part of me is telling me that I'm gonna screw it up, or how can I trust him?
I don't know I'm probably being stupid."
"Oh, Rem...it'll turn out to be fine. I'm here to tell me, there isn't a bone in his body that doesn't love you. As Moony or Remus, he loves you." Lily said.
"We haven't said that. At least irl. It's just gonna be weird you know?"
"It might be," Lily said, moving closer to Remus, "but it might also be a good thing, I mean you have this online relationship, where you've practically kept nothing from each other, and you have this irl relationship with a fuck-load of chemistry. All honesty, I think it'll be good," She continued, pulling him into a hug, "Now go get food and meet him."

8:02 AM
Remus walked into the Great Hall and sat by Sirius. Sirius immediately turned and kissed him.
"Morning, darling!" Sirius said, returning his attention to his food.
"What was that for?" Remus asked, "Not that I'm complaining."
Sirius shrugged, "Just felt like it." he said, smiling.
"Okay, you weirdo."
"Oh you love me really." Sirius joked.
I really might. Remus thought.
"And I'm glad you do," Sirius whispered to him.
Remus' eyes widened, "What?"
Sirius knocked back the rest of his juice and got up from the table, "Nothing, I'll tell you later, 'kay?"
"Right, bye?"
Sirius kissed Remus' forehead and proceeded to exit the Great Hall, as Lily, Regulus and Marlene entered.
"Where's he off too?" Regulus asked.
Remus shrugged, "Not a clue. He's acting....odd today."
"Well today is the big day right?" Regulus asked, Lily looked shocked, "What? Oh yes, I'm just the little brother who never observes anything," he said, mockingly, "anyways, he's probably just nervous that things will be weird after you two meet as Moony and Rose or whatever." He finished, sipping his coffee.
"I guess." Remus said.

Hogsmeade Village
12:25 PM
Remus walked down Hogsmeade's main street, alone. He knew he would have to be alone, I mean he was meeting his...well whatever they were, which is extremely complicated (and has taken your author 16ish chapters to explain).
Remus: What time do you want to meet?Rose: 1ish?
Rose: gives us some timeRemus: Sure, sounds good
Rose: i'm excited Moons
Remus: Me too Rosie
Rose: see you at 1
Remus entered The Three Broomsticks and found Lily chatting with James and Regulus. He walked over and slumped into the booth next to Lily.
"How's lover boy?" Lily asked.
"We're meeting at one, and I need a drink." Remus said.
Regulus went up to the bar and returned with three shots of an amber liquid.
"Reggie, how'd you get that? We're fifteen, you're literally fourteen?" James asked.
"Eh, mostly the last name, some flirting, it works." Regulus said, downing his. He grimaced at the aftertaste.
"Well drink up, Remmy." James said, raising his glass as if he were giving a toast, and then downing his shot. Remus picked up the shot glass and downed it. He sat and talked to the three for a while longer, then he looked at his watch, which read: 12:56.
"Welp, I've got to go." Remus said, standing up.
Lily held out his jacket, "Give Sirius our best." She smiled.
"Wish me luck." Remus said as he headed for the exit.
Once he exited the toasty building, the cold came over him like a wave. He pulled his coat around himself and walked towards Honeydukes, the agreed upon place. He honestly, had no clue how this was going to go. It was Sirius, he knew this, but still, it was odd. This could essentially change the entire nature of their relationship, Rose was someone he shared, essentially, everything with. He didn't hold anything back, other than his condition, but Sirius already knew of it, and he was still dating him. It would be fine, everything would be fine. He just had to keep telling himself that.
Remus stood outside of Honeydukes for a moment. Through the window he saw Sirius looking around at different chocolate types, and honestly just seeing him made Remus light up. This was perfect, he was perfect.
Sure, they were exceedingly fucked up, they both had their issues, but in that moment, Remus had never felt more filled with love.
Sirius was... Sirius. And if all Remus ever accomplished in his life was loving them, reversing some of the damage his biological parents had caused, then that would be enough.
And with everything that he thought he lacked, everything the sorting hat had seen all those weeks ago, he took a breathe and opened the door.
