Running in the dark

Chapter 55

"Remus lupin, you look like a goddess," Marlene said as Remus walked down the stairs beside Sirius.

"I think I look stunning to McKinnon, who are you meant to be?" Sirius huffed from beside Remus looking at Marlene with distaste.

''I dressed as a slut, so I guess you," Marlene grinned.

"Ten points from Gryffindor for being a bitch," Sirius yelled which made a few heads turn across the common room.

"When are we going to dinner, as much as hearing you two whine is amazing I want to see the feast and what James and Regulus are wearing," Dorcas said from beside Marlene, she wore a similar outfit to Marlene.

It was the Halloween feast and they were dressed up, Remus wasn't planning to do this but Sirius and even James forced him, well they bonded the outfit to his body.

"You think Reggie is going to dress up," Sirius scoffed shaking his head. They walked into the hall and were met with the feast, many laughed at Sirius and Remus's outfits and merlin knew why.

Sirius had a long grey-haired wig with a matching grey beard. He wore half-moon spectacles and long burgundy robes but he had belted them at his waist and cut the fabric above his knee and put on black heels with tights.

Remus was wearing a black hat and emerald green robes, of course, they didn't even match the usual look and instead of the usual black underlayer, he was wearing one of Mary's black crop tops and a black skirt Sirius had taken from Marlene which was cut off halfway up his thigh. He wore black tights and black-heeled boots. Of course, he was dressed as McGonagall and Sirius as Dumbledore.

The only reason he was McGonagall was Sirius was sure he would get away with it, he claimed with Remus's head boy status and how much she adored him nothing would happen.

There were only a couple of teachers at the front as the feast had not officially started and Remus was happy not to see Dumbledore or McGonagall there.

Marlene then let out a wolf whistle and they all turned to see she was looking at James and Regulus who had just begun to walk in.

James was wearing a suit, not one for a funeral but a superhero one, Remus and Lily who had joined them with Mary a few minutes earlier quickly realised he was Spiderman, the Muggle comic was popular and Remus read a few and gave one to James who became instantly obsessed in the crime-fighting hero.

Regulus wasn't grinning as James was beside him but looked very displeased, he was dressed as Mary-Jane, he wore a red wig and a waistcoat which he had his arms crossed over and black heels.

"Guess you were wrong about Regulus not dressing up," Dorcas smirked.

"He made you didn't he?" Remus asked Regulus who nodded not dating to speak.

The door by the teacher's table opened and a few teachers walked in, Madam Pomfrey walked in beside McGonagall and when McGonagall noticed and Madam Pomfrey looked over too, her laugh echoed throughout the hall as McGonagall turned away.

Dumbledore arrived last and stood up and gave a speech. "Now I wish you and the fine-looking fellow with that dashing beard enjoy the feast," he ended and Sirius smiled. The feast came and they dug in.

When Remus was eating his desert he found someone behind him and turned to find McGonagall. "My guess is this is Mr Black doing?" She asked looking at Sirius Remus nodded, she then smiled shocking the group, then said "good to see you all getting along," before she walked away.

McGonagall had feared those two would not talk again after the events in march but now seeing them being foolish young adults she was pleased, her boys had grown up together their being apart was horrible.

"I want to get out of this," Remus groaned walking towards the dorm room stairs.

"Then take it off Lupin we don't mind," Marlene grinned wickedly and Sirius shot her a glare and followed Remus up the stairs.

Sirius thankfully unbonded the clothes from him and he began to pull them off. "You did look hot, you have to admit," Sirius laughed pulling off the long wig and beard.

"Whatever," Remus replied pulling off the shoes, it had been less than two weeks and they weren't being too fast-paced, Remus found the majority of his time he was staying in his bed but Sirius was pushing at that, he was just thankful he had Remus back

"You did really Moony, really hot," Sirius grinned he'd come over and put an arm over Remus's waist which was bare, he still wore the crop top and skirt.

"Alright," Remus said his face was definitely reddening, Sirius didn't move away but kept himself still pressed against Remus.

"I love you," Sirius said it was soft but so meaningful, he meant each word and each word buried itself into Remus' skin.

"I love you too," Remus replied softly and Sirius went up on his toes to kiss Remus' lips.

"I don't deserve you," Sirius said, Remus now had his arms looped around Sirius' waist, holding him in place.

"Merlin you're so soppy," Remus chuckled before ducking down to kiss Sirius more passionately but when they broke away Remus was laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" Sirius asked he was confused.

"It's nothing," Remus said still chuckling.

"Moony," Sirius pleaded so during what Remus was thinking about.

"I was just thinking about this time two years ago I was kissing your brother," Remus said.

A look of confusion and then disturbance crossed Sirius' face before he said, "You were really kissing me and thinking about that, this is why we can't have nice things Remus," Sirius muttered shaking his head.

"You know you love me," Remus chuckled pressing a soft kiss on Sirius' jaw.

"I guess I do," Sirius replied smiling to himself.
