Never Go To Bed Angry

"You're so fucking conceited, Sirius! You think just because we kissed once that I'm desperately in love with you!"

"Remus, can you calm do-"

"'Cause if you do then you're fucking right and I hate it because you're always fucking right when it comes to my feelings and I can't hide shit from you because you're so fucking smart when it comes to all things me, you stupid git!"

Sirius would've laughed at how Remus contradicted himself in every part of that and he would've mocked him for being confused when he was normally so fucking smart and organised and perfect, but he didn't. He didn't because he was angry. He was fucking furious because Remus was getting mad at him for speaking.

"It's not my fault that you love me, you arsehole! I didn't ask you to, I wasn't even teasing you. I said hi love and you flipped your fucking shit. What do you expect me to do when you are so fucking moody, Moony?"

Remus tugged on his hair and screamed in frustration, standing a few inches taller than Sirius and stepping closer to him as he spoke.

"Fuck you Sirius." His voice raised even louder.

While all of this was happening, James and Lily had conjured up some popcorn and watched for the first time as Remus got really mad. They hadn't seen it before, the boy usually being the calm one out of the group, but now he was fuming and nobody knew what was coming.

Sirius snarled and stepped back, pushing Remus away from him with little force, so as not to hurt him but enough to send a message.

"I'm getting the fuck out of here."
Sirius muttered as his face reddened from penting up his anger.

"Yeah, of course you are. Go, GO! Fucking Jesus Christ, run away and go back to your pure blood family because you're just like them! A fucking coward, just like your fucking father-"

"I AM NOTHING LIKE MY FATHER!"

The room fell silent and Sirius stared at the floor, strands of hair falling out of his messy man bun and over his tear streaked face and breathing heavily. He looked at Remus through his hair with his head lowered and his voice was just barely above a whisper.

"I'm no fucking coward."

Remus got right in Sirius' face while James stood up, deeming this as having gone too far.

"You are. And you're a racist cunt, just like your mothe-"

Remus didn't finish the sentence before Sirius punched him hard on his left cheekbone. Remus' head was sent to the side and his hand flew to his cheek, cupping the bruising skin gently and staring at Sirius.

Sirius stared him straight in the eyes as the dark cloud that was Remus' aggressive side shrunk back into the recesses of his mind and tears replaced it. Sirius scoffed, disgusted at the man before him. They were surrounded by their friends, celebrating the end of thir exams in their seventh year when Remus picked this fight. Everyone but James and Lily had left.

"Who's the coward now?"
Sirius taunted as Remus began to sob. James grabbed Sirius before he could launch himself towards Remus and James held his thrashing body back. Lily grabbed Remus as he fell to the floor and she crouched in front of him, wand drawn and body lowered in case Sirius' temper got any worse.

"WHO THE FUCK IS THE COWARD NOW? HUH? WHO IS IT, MOONY? WHO THE FUCK IS IT REMUS?"

Sirius slumped in James' arms, hair falling over his face once more before he began to sob.

"Fuck you, Lupin. Fuck you."

And then he grabbed his coat from the stand and left despite James' pleads, blocking out the sound of Remus' sobs and trying not to feel happy that Remus finally admitted that he reciprocated Sirius' feelings after six and a half years.
