How It Started

Coming Together

Remus' POV

Great, just great, I'm stuck under this damned mistletoe with Sirius. "I just have one question," he said smirking as he placed his wand behind his ear.

"Wouldn't you like to ask that one question." I said sarcastically rolling my eyes,

"Why are we stuck under here?" he asked looking up still smirking,

"Because it's been charmed, idiot," I huffed the smirk on his face faltered and he fell silent.

"Yes I know," he said looking at me with a gay face (substitute for straight), 

"Can I ask a question now?" I asked crossing my arms the bandage on my wrist became visible to him and he looked at it concern taking over his features.

"You just did," he said chuckling,

"Seriously," I said annoyed he chuckled again,

"That's my name, ask the question," he said I huffed and looked at the bandage on my wrist.

"Why is your wand behind your ear?" I asked chuckling he smiled a bit and adjusted it.

"So I don't blow me buttock off," he said seriously I cast a tempus to see the time, 

"We are going to be late," I sighed looking up at him he was a bit taller than me so I would have to stand on my toes to kiss him so we weren't late.

"Than kiss me so we aren't," he said a hint of amusement in his voice, "But first, I thought you didn't like me? You made it seem that way when you read my essay for Potions."

"I do like you. I have for awhile." I huffed fiddling with my robes I looked up and he captured me in a soft kiss his arm snaked around my waist I was shocked at first but kissed back nonetheless.

"Now, we aren't late and if we are," the bell rang as he said this. "Well, just tell them you were stuck under the mistletoe I have to be down in Care of Magical Creatures."

"Right, see you later," I said walking off to my horror and pretty much all the portraits and the one classroom he wasn't finished speaking.

"Hey, it gets cold at night maybe you could Slytherin to my bed!" he called a hint of amusement in his voice I felt my face heat up and turned back to retaliate.

"Get to class! Remus get in here or I'll give you detention!" the Defense teacher yelled I only had defense with Sirius on Mondays. I walked into class still blushing, we only took notes and reviewed what we learned last year, after that lesson, the last lesson of the day, I went put my bag in the tower with Sirius and walked back outside. The snow was getting higher, to Sirius' amusement I sunk in the snow making it come just below my knees. A question that's been haunting me since Defense came back to mind as we trudged through the snow. 

"Sirius, what are we?" I asked stepping in front of him he tilted his head in confusion like a dog would when he didn't understand, so pretty much it was all Sirius.

"Wizards?" he asked confused I chuckled and looked down,

"No, what are we?" I asked he was still confused as I did hand motions between us signalling what I was asking about.

"Is this a trick question? Is the answer humans?" he asked tilting his head to the other side,

"No, Sirius, us, are we together? I wanna know this now so I'm not confused when you go and play with the other girls." I said playing with the snow under my feet I could tell he wasn't confused any more because he started shuffling his feet.

"I don't know, do you want to be with me?" he asked looking down I stopped playing with the snow and looked at him,

"Of course I do, you're my wolf-taimer, as James says, the question is do you want to be with me? I mean, I'm covered in scars, hell, I have three scars on my face that stretch every time I speak and that isn't attractive-" I was cut off of my ranting by a pair of soft lips.
