Requested by @JulVP07 if you can't remember you request just tons of fluff so I decided I'd try something a little different there is like SLIGHT angst but I had to.

This is also written differently then how I usually do. I was feeling poetic or something the beginning.... idk just tell me what you think please.

Remus Lupin showed his love in many ways. You just had to have an eye keen enough to see them. He showed it for others in the way he would help first years no matter the house. He showed it in the way he would always be there for any student he realized self harmed. And he always seemed to figure it out no matter how careful they where because he could smell the fresh blood from there cuts due to his werewolf nose. He showed it in how no matter what class and what student he would do his best to help. He showed it by always making sure no one was injured during a prank. He showed it by helping clean classrooms or prank zones after all was said and done.

He showed it to his friends in many ways as well. Helping James try to woo Lily making sure James didn't do anything to out there. He helped James practice before quidditch tryouts. Helping Sirius when his family got to be to much to bare. Or when Sirius has a bad night full of horrible thoughts about his reputation and family and he needed someone to stop him from hurting himself. He showed it in the way he was kind to Peter, and he was up until that horrible Halloween night. He showed it by cheering them on every game and consoling every lose. He did it by always making sure everyone got a Christmas present. He loved his friends and there was no one who could deny that.

But he showed his love to one person in particular who never seemed to notice. And that was you, he didn't mind that you didn't see his feelings for you nor did he mind the thought that you didn't love him back. He was fine with loving you from afar and only being your friend. Because he would rather have you this way then not have you in his life at all.

He showed his love by holding your rolling suitcase with his foot on the train when he was a row behind you because he realized you where sleeping on it and he didn't want it to roll. He showed it by watching closely making sure you where eating right. He showed it by giving you the physical affection you craved since your family gave you none. He showed it by always giving you chocolate when you craved it. Yes, his chocolate. The thing he protected and cherished and hid from the world, he shared with you. He showed it by always having a hair tie on his wrist because you always misplaced yours.

Remus lupin was extraordinary and he didn't even know. But everyone else did. Everyone else saw the small acts of love and returned them in kind. The students always spoke with him when passing him in the halls. Those he help save always write him letters of thanks, and he keeps every single one. The people who got anonymous Christmas presents always smiled a little wider at him because they knew. Everyone did.

His friends turned into illegal animagus just to help him when the worst part of him was shown. They showed it by constantly reassuring him and treating him the same. They showed it by taking him to the hospital wing.

You showed your own love, you always made sure the house he went to was always clean before he got there. He wouldn't care while a werewolf but it'd be much nicer to transform somewhere a friend had been before. You showed it by staying at the hospital with him at night to help with the nightmares and insomnia.

Remus lupin was in no shortage of love, both giving and receiving. And yet he still doubted that sometimes. Doubted he was worthy and thought of himself as a monster. But you guys where always there to dispel those thoughts. Tonight was a night where it was just you and him.

It was long past your school days but you all still stuck together. Ever since Halloween when lily and James almost died along with Harry you guys stuck together. It was lucky that you had planned on coming over that night. You and Harry always liked to play a game you'd pop up somewhere in the house and he'd have to find you.
