Adoption?

Summary: Remus and Janus adopt a kid!

Janus’ Pov

“Janus!”

I looked up from my book seeing Remus bound into the living room.

“What’s wrong dear?”

“I have a question for you.” He sat down next to me, his serious face on.

“Alright,” I set my book down marking the page with a bookmark, “What is it?”

“I want to adopt a kid.”

I nodded slowly. He took my hands in his rubbing my knuckles with his thumb.

“If you’re not ready it’s fine I can wait I just thought I’d let you know…”

“Are you sure we’re ready? I don’t want to mess it up.”

“I think we’re ready but if you’re not or feel rushed that’s completely fine too.”

A slow smile spread on my face, “Get your shoes on.”

He smiled, pecking my lips before jumping up from the couch and running down the hall to the front door. I let out a small laugh getting up and following my husband out the door to the car. We drove to the adoption center and walked in. Well I walked, Remus practically ran in the building. I put a hand on his shoulder stopping him from his craziness. 

“Re slow down we don’t even know what age group we want or anything like that yet.”

“I know, I know I’m just excited.”

“I know Re but you need to calm down a little...if that’s possible.”

We walked up to the front desk and the receptiness told us to go through the door on the left and we can talk to the kids. I thanked her and followed Remus who was basically through the door.

“Remus slow down a bit.”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry it’s just look at how cute they all are!”

“I know Re, how about we walk around a bit and talk to some of the kids ok?”

We walked around the area talking to some of the younger kids. I stood back up and noticed Remus staring at a kid in the corner by a window by himself.

“Remus? You ok?”

“Can we go talk to him?”

I smiled grabbing his hand, “Come on then.”

He smiled and we stopped in front of the emo looking boy. He looked up at us surprised.

I kneeled down in front of him, “Hello, my name is Janus and this is my husband Remus, What’s your name?”

“My n-name is V-virg-gil…”

“Hi Virgil. Why are you by yourself?”

He looked down playing with his sleeves, “No one wants to adopt me….I-I’m too weird…”

“Well how would you like to come stay with us for a bit?”

“You’d a-adopt me?”

“If you want, we’d love to adopt you.”

He smiled and nodded.

“Alright why don’t you come with us to the front then.”

He stood up and grabbed Remus’ hand as we walked to the front to sign paperwork and get all the boring stuff out of the way. We drove back to the house and Remus took Virgil upstairs to the guestroom or I suppose if all goes well, his new room. I walked into the kitchen and started taking stuff out to make lunch. 

Skip a few weeks later Remus and I are signing the adoption papers in order to officially adopt Virgil. We walked out of the office big smiles on our faces. Virgil looked up nervousness plastered on his face.

Remus stuck his hand out, “Let’s go home buddy.”

A smile replaced the nervousness and he grabbed his hand as we walked out and to the car.
