The Lupin's

Do you think about how Sirius pulled the prank back in what? Fifth year? And how if he had met Hope and Lyall for the first time after that. Like how pissed would they be that their son is now dating the kid who tried to get him killed or make him a murderer? And I feel like Hope would give him a second chance, but Lyall would just be staring him down before looking to Remus or Hope and say "When does he leave?" Right in front of him just to be mean.

"You tricked my son twice now, I want you out" and he points to the door. But then Sirius cowers back and steps closer to Remus because he just got kicked out of his own house not even a year ago and now Lyall, who hasn't even know him for five minutes already wants him out of his life. And he can't help but think, "am I really that unlovable?"

But when he takes a step closer to Remus, Lyall is pissed because no. "No, don't use my son as a shield"

And Sirius is apologizing, and he doesn't even know what he did wrong he just knows it's something and he's sorry because Lyall and Remus look so much alike and if Remus looked at him like that he'd die.

And Hope whisper yells "Lyall. Enough." but Sirius is already on the verge of tears muttering out apologies and stepping away from Remus. His eyes dart from Lyall's to Hope, until finally Remus' and gestures to the door. "I'm sorry. I didn't know you didn't want me here I-ll-I'll leave and go back to Hogwarts I'm sorry" and his head is ducked looking at the ground as the first tears spill over.

Okay but he trudges his feet and goes to move towards the door, but Hope's hand wraps around his arm gently and he flinches. She looks at him so sad because this boy showed up with his son, and they both look so sad but now Remus is glaring at his father and his boyfriend is crying and she just wants to fix it all.

But she can't fix it, and Sirius is looking at her, his eyes wide and full of terror, but he doesn't dare to try to pull his arm free from her grasp from the fear.

But she notices how scared he is, so he pats his arm softly but lets him go, and Sirius stumbles back but Remus catches him, and Sirius is shaking, staring at Lyall and Hope, and Remus' heart nearly cracks in half when Remus turns to look at him with the same expression like he would ever hurt him.

Hope tells Remus to take Sirius to his room, and Remus understands,

make him feel better

make him feel safe

tell him Lyall was wrong

Love this boy

She looks at him eye-level and tells him. "I want you here, it's okay."

But Sirius doesn't feel like he's okay, and he's still scared, leaning onto Remus with tears still sliding down his face

Remus gently leads Sirius upstairs, and his arm is looped around his waist but Sirius is so tense and his legs are so shaky, he feels like his knees are going buckle and he'll collapse. Remus keeps him upright, taking him to the bathroom next to his room.

He gets a damp cloth while Sirius sits on the counter. Remus stands close, between his legs and wipes gently at the tears there. Sirius is still hiccuping softly, eyes squeezed closed and his hands in fists.

"I'm sorry," he whispers, voice thinks with tears.

And Remus is shushing him so fast, kissing his cheeks where the tears are still falling,

"You have nothing to be sorry for," he whispers into the salty skin, he uses his thumbs to wipe away the rest, raising onto his tiptoes to press a kiss to Sirius's forehead, coaxing him to open his eyes
