"Our last day before the tour, huh?" Sirius asked, sitting perched up on the countertop. He was sipping a steaming drink out of a coffee mug, which, at least from here, smelled like hot chocolate.
"It's gonna be awhile before we come home again," Remus pointed out. "We're not going to be back until June." Six months. Well, technically, five and a half. Five and a half months of playing music every third or fourth day, five and a half months of travelling all across the US and Canada.
Sirius shrugged, setting his hot chocolate down on the countertop. "Eh, I've been away from home longer than just six months. I'll live," he mentioned, somehow talking about a not-so-casual subject so casually.
Remus pointed to his hot chocolate, "You happen to get one for me?" he asked Sirius. It was probably wishful thinking, but hey, it was hot chocolate, he should at least give it a shot.
Sirius scoffed, "Who do you think I am? A shitty boyfriend?" he asked, lifting up another mug Remus didn't notice was there.
Remus smiled, and sat up on the countertop as well, holding a perfectly warm hot chocolate. It was going to be a while before he was going to be home again, and Remus tended to get homesick easily. He'd miss what was surrounding him, the warm hot chocolate and the ugly paint on the walls.
Well, it's not like it's forever, at least.
"Man, isn't it crazy that it's only been two years?" Sirius asked. "Well, a little under that, but still."
It'd be two years in 15 days. January 31. The day Remus' life changed for the better. He nodded, "I was so confused when I first moved here. Just saying, you guys were kinda weird," he admitted. He still remembered how Sirius had stood on the coffee table, declaring that they needed to pick up Eggo waffles. As if Eggo would save them from starvation in the blizzard.
"We were weird? You were way to stuck up back then, Moony," Sirius told him, a little bit of a smirk on his face. "James bet me twenty bucks I wouldn't be able to make you let loose and live a little. But here we are, and I'm twenty dollars richer."
Remus smiled, chuckling softly. It sounds like something they'd bet on. "Really, we're a lot more than twenty dollars richer." The money from their future concert tickets had started to come in, and Remus was officially debt free, which was nice. No more worrying about student loans was a sentence he didn't expect to think while he was only twenty-four.
"Yeah. Still can't get over the fact that we'd all be able to buy our own homes if we wanted," he agreed. "Or I could spend two thousand dollars on a diamond studded guitar."
"Don't think that's a good idea," Remus admitted. Not only was it unnecessary, it also sounded kind of painful to play.
Sirius let out a huff of amusement. "Knew you'd say that," he admitted. He looked to Remus, a kind glow in his gray eyes. He swung his legs back and forth as they sat on the counter, Sirius was never one to sit still.
A beat of silence, neither of them having anything to add to the conversation. Remus took a sip of his hot chocolate, a little hot but at least it didn't burn his tongue.
"You want to go on a walk?" Sirius suggested, looking outside where the sky was a dark blue. There was a layer of snow coating the ground, probably a few inches at the least.
