I love Sirius and Remus pretending to not be together to help set up James and lily while lily and James are trying to set up Remus and Sirius

ah thank you 💞 i thought that would be a very marauders situation for them to get into 🌞

[cake-in-a-tin]

Thanks for the prompt <3 When Marlene entered the potions classroom the first thing she noticed was how strongly it smelt of lavender. There were cauldrons bubbling at the front of the classroom, Professor Slughorn standing over them and stirring a couple here and there. Marlene hated Slughorn, but that was neither here nor there, he could play favourites all he liked, at least he wasn’t obsessed with pure-blooded nonsense like some people.  “Smells pretty strong in here, doesn’t it?” Dorcas was taking a deep breath as she said this, eyes slightly closed. Marlene nodded, looking at her friend.

“Yeah, that lavender.” 

“What?” Dorcas looked confused, which confused Marlene as well. Had she not just commented about the overpowering scent coming from the front of the room?

“That’s the smell isn’t it?”  “Smells more like vanilla to me.” Now Marlene just felt stupid. How could she be smelling lavender if Dorcas was smelling vanilla? “Maybe your just smelling my shampoo Mar? I washed my hair before class.” Marlene nodded, unconvinced. Sure, the smell of Dorcas’ shampoo did distract her for reasons but she didn’t usually smell it this much.

Before she would reply Slughorn clapped his hands in the way he always seemed to do. It pissed Marlene the hell off, but everything this man did annoyed her so she supposed she wasn’t the one to judge. “Alright folks. Today we have a very exciting potion to be looking at and attempting to make.” He looked at their faces closely, as if expecting a reaction immediately. Like any of them actually wanted to be there. “Amortentia.” He paused, presumably waiting for the reaction he had expected a moment ago. He was gratified by a few eyes widening, but Marlene just sighed. 

““I wish he’d get on with it.” She muttered in Dorcas’ ear, making her giggle, in a way that made Marlene’s stomach get major butterflies.

““Now, can anyone tell me what Amortentia is? Ah, Miss Evans, please enlighten us.”

Lily, who was a couple of desks away from Marlene tucked her hair behind her ear, in a way she often did when talking about something she liked. ““Well, Amortentia, is a love potion - the most powerful love potion there is actually. It smells different to each individual, depending on what attracts them.”

Marlene felt her eyes widen slightly as she understood, then felt appropriately mortified. Of course she was attracted to lavender - it was the scent she associated with Dorcas, who she may or may not have had a crush on since like third year. Oh, god she had said it smelled of lavender and Dorcas had been confused, and she was probably realising Marlene had smelled her and was attracted to her oh no oh god just go die Marlene and hope it will be painless.  Slughorn was talking again, of course. That man really loved the sound of his own voice didn’t he? Marlene was having a quiet argument with herself about something, she didn’t really know what point she was trying to make to herself anymore either, she had said what she’d said, and now was going to have to face the consequences. Or, she could avoid things until it got to the stage where it had escalated much more than it needed to and she had been overthinking for way too long. Option B sounded mightily superior.

“Uh, sir?” She raised her hand slowly, causing Slughorn to look at her with an expression in his small, blue eyes. How was it that blue eyes could look so cold and unattractive on people like Slughorn, then on people like Dorcas they were absolutely gorgeous? Marlene had spent many a conversation with Dorcas just staring into her eyes, glad to have an excuse. It would probably be a bit creepy to stare at a friend’s eyes at any other time.  “Yes, Miss McKinnon?”

““I don’t feel so well, do you mind if I go and see Madam Pomfrey.”  “Well, I’m not sure Miss McKinnon, what exactly is wrong with you? You’ll be missing a very important lesson.”

““Oh, it’s just I have awful cramps. You know.” Marlene grinned internally. This was a foolproof excuse with people like Slughorn, who thought that the subject of periods was not one to be discussed. Personally Marlene thought it was ridiculous. Why on earth would anyone have a problem with something that happens to the majority of women?

“Oh, run along then, yes.” Slughorn was indeed looking a bit uncomfortable, much to Marlene’s delight.  “I’ll take notes for you Mar.” Dorcas whispered as Marlene stood up to go. When she was up in the Gryffindor girls dormitory - She didn’t really have cramps, Slughorn was so gullible - Marlene considered the events of the last half an hour. What in earth was she going to say when Dorcas brought up the fact Marlene had smelled her shampoo. Ugh, what a nightmare this was, literally, because just the other night Marlene had had a very stressful dream about having to confess her feelings to Dorcas.

Staring across at her bedside table, and her bottles of perfume, Marlene suddenly realised something. Dorcas had smelled vanilla, which was the scent of her favourite perfume. Probably a coincidence... right?

Hope you enjoyed that, it was not great, (I’m sleep deprived big time) but I wanted to write something and this was a great prompt. Thank you @stevenandpete​ <3

just one kiss pt2

part one

~~~

“I’m not supposed to see you before the date, am i?”

Raising an eyebrow suggestively, Sirius chuckled as he peeled the fifth shirt- a maroon button up- from under black jeans and off of his body- bearing his torso.

Leaving him shirtless. 

Leaving Remus’s stupid heart beating rapidly against his chest.

“You’re really taking this seriously, huh?”

Seriously.

“Oh Merlin, you did not-”

Sirius froze, before realising. “Shit. I did not-”

“You did! I’m telling Prongs the second we get back, I swear!”

The most dramatically hurt look, that practically screamed “you betrayed me!” crossed Sirius’s face.

Suddenly, Remus found himself dodging a pillow that was thrown at him, before Sirius started tickling him himself. Butterflies raged almost painfully in his stomach with every gentle touch, and he could’ve sworn his heart stopped in the split second of eye contact, where Sirius’s hair tickled his neck as they both stopped to catch their breath.

Remus could’ve sworn something almost happened.

Sirius would’ve sworn nothing was ever going to happen.

“I should get ready,” breathed Remus, barely a whisper. Sirius could feel his breath against his skin.

“You should,” replied Sirius after a pause.

But neither of them wanted to move from here. Remus’s shaky breaths and weak elbows that were barely holding themselves up, let alone Sirius that was awkwardly perched above him.

“Pads? Moony? What’s taking so long?!”

Remus’s heart skipped a beat as they both shuffled back to opposite sides of the room.

“Coming!” Yelled Sirius, trying and failing to make eye contact.

“Coming,” half mumbled Remus, words weakly struggling to form in his throat. Not with the thought that wouldn’t fade away in his head.

What was he getting himself into?

~~~

It was around half an hour of fiddling with a thin jumper and grey jeans that Sirius walked in. 

And fuck.

As if the black shirt- two buttons undone with the sleeves rolled up just below his elbows- wasn’t enough to take Remus’s breath away, Sirius had loosely tucked the front into his red jeans- the ones he’d dyed himself the muggle way. A few Gryffindor wristbands hung off his wrist and fell down his forearm as he raised a hand to nervously play with his hair.

“Is this okay?” He asked nervously.

“More- more than- okay- I- okay is far from the word I’d use- not that it isn’t okay, don’t get me wrong it’s very nice- I- it just- what was I trying to say?”

“The jeans are a bit showy, aren’t they? I’ll change,” said Sirius, half confused, half amused at Remus’s inability to function.

“It- no, Pads, the jeans look wonderful. Keep them on.” Or not, if things go well.

Sirius chuckled and gave that infuriatingly attractive grin, before craning his neck to get a peak of the clock. “We should get going now, shouldn’t we?”

“Suppose so.”

Here goes nothing.

“So I’m allowed one kiss?”

“Just one kiss,” repeated Remus.

“I’d better use it well,” murmured Sirius with a grin, sneaking a wink at Remus. Who blushed profusely.

“Well, you won’t have to if you change my mind,” muttered Remus under his breath. 

Suddenly, he wasn’t the one blushing.

“Boys! You’re here!”

Bouncy blonde hair, dark eyeliner and the smirk were back. Marlene was dressed in a cropped leather jacket, pink shirt and black jeans; an outfit that Sirius oh-so-desperately wanted to steal.

“Dorcas said she’d meet us at Hallwell’s,” started Marlene, grinning at a blushing Sirius. “And I while wouldn’t want to impose on you and Remus, it just so happens that I forgot to ask Lily something.”

“We can wait,” said Sirius stubbornly.

“But do you really want to?”

Sirius glared, and shot a mocking smile at her, but she innocently smiled back, before disappearing.

“What was that about?”

“Nothing,” said Sirius with a forced chuckle, before unconsciously trailing his fingers over Remus’s hand. The butterflies were back.

“Want to head there?” Asked Remus, stuffing his hands in his pockets.

“Oh, right, good idea.”

And if there was anything more awkward than the walk to the restaurant, neither Remus nor Sirius could remember it. Dragging their feet across the rainy pavements, neither of them knew how to strike up a conversation, as if they hadn’t been friends for over five years now.

“Hello,” said Remus, in an effort to break the tense silence.

“Hi,” replied Sirius, eager to break the tense silence.

The two of them burst into fits of laughter.

“You two okay?”

Dorcas- dressed in a dark purple dress that stopped just below her knees and her usual dark curls in cornrows- sent them a confused look.

“We- yes, we’re okay,” managed Remus in between giggles. He didn’t even know what was so funny, nor why he couldn’t meet Sirius’s face without bursting into even more fits of laughter.

“Marls? I think their drinks came before ours.”

Marlene grinned, before whispering something into Dorcas’s ear that sounded uncannily like “remember what he said?”

Suddenly, neither of them were laughing anymore.

“What’d you say?”

“Nothing,” shrugged Marlene.

“She said ‘remember what he said’,” drawled Remus, earning a mocking glare from Marlene.

But Sirius merely groaned and threw a crumpled up tissue at Marlene. Who flicked her wand, turned it into a rose, and presented it to a blushing Dorcas who’d just appeared with drinks.

Remus looked away as their lipworks started, staring pointedly at his butterbeer in front.

“Why do I get the feeling that any food we order is going to be completely ignored by those two?”

“Their lips’ll be busy with other stuff I guess,” deadpanned Remus.

Sirius snorted loudly.

“And ours?”

Raising an eyebrow, Remus shrugged. “Wouldn’t you like to know?”

“Oh I really would.”

Sometimes, Remus himself forgot that there was nothing between them.

“So you’re going to use your one kiss now?”

“Well, I don’t think I can wait any longer,” said Sirius.

Little did he know how much he meant it.

“Uh- okay,” started Remus, his mouth going dry and heart beating faster than possible.

Remus stared awkwardly into Sirius’s eyes, which were filled with an emotion he couldn’t read. Sirius saw the same.

Suddenly, he felt lips against his own, and felt Remus’s hands pull him closer over the table. Warmth filled him and flowed through his veins in a way nothing could ever come close to. And every second felt like years, as he pressed his numb body against the table and moved closer.

Until Remus pulled them apart.

“How was that for just one kiss?”

There was a light, almost playful grin on his face. 

Sirius felt something inside his chest break. Had they not felt the same way?

“Sirius?”

“Mmh?”

Clearing his throat, Sirius blinked harshly and ignored Remus’s now concerned face. He picked up a menu and fiddled with the bent corners, biting the inside of his mouth painfully.

“Did I do something wrong?”

Sirius looked up.

“No, you didn’t,” he said simply, his voice stone. He couldn’t manage anything else.

“What’d I do?”

“Nothing.”

“Then what happened?”

“If I didn’t know better, I’d think you liked it a bit too much.”

Eyes growing wide, Sirius almost fell off his chair.

“What makes you think otherwise?” Whispered Sirius shakily.

Now it was Remus’s turn to blush uncontrollably.

“You’re- you’re Sirius. There’s no way you haven’t had better.”

“Maybe that’s true,” shrugged Sirius. “But I’ve never wanted any of them more than I’ve wanted this.”

Remus couldn’t believe it. “Prove it.”

“Prove it?”

“How do I know you aren’t lying?”

“Kiss me.”

“Wh-”

“Just kiss me.”

It couldn’t be true

Standing up slowly on shaky legs, Remus met his eyes. And he couldn’t help believing Sirius. 

Maybe it really was true.

But when the distance between them closed, Remus couldn’t be more sure.

Some more Wolfstar fluff for you tonight. Another first kiss story since apparently I can’t pick a favorite. i’ll figure it out eventually. I technically wrote this ages ago, but @stevenandpete said she’s having a bad day so I went and pulled it up for her. This is for you love, and remember that tomorrow is a new day. <3

One night, a few days before their first exam, Remus and Sirius found themselves alone in the common room. It was late, and neither was particularly awake anymore. Both were seated on the couch, shoulders pressed together, books open in their laps.

It was nearing three o’clock when Remus realized he’d read the same line four times and decided that it was probably time to go to bed. 

With a yawn, Remus shut his textbook, setting it on the floor in front of him, along with his notebook and pencil.

Sirius stirred at the sound, blinking sleepily as he looked at him. A smile bloomed on his lips. He promptly leaned over and laid his head in Remus’ lap.

“What’re you still doing up, Pads?” Remus asked, leaning back into the couch and looking down at the boy sprawled on top of him. He ran a hand through his hair, knowing Sirius loved it. “And don’t say studying. You’ve spent the past 20 minutes staring at the wall.” 

“Mmm, wanted to keep you company.” Sirius’ voice was soft and lilting, his words slurred a bit as if he didn’t have the energy to define the letters. 

“Well, I always appreciate your company, but you should have gone to bed. You must be exhausted; I know you didn’t get more than two hours of sleep last night.”

“I’ll be fine. I like being with you.” Remus smiled a little at that.

“Alright. I’m gonna go to bed now,” Remus said, shifting a bit. Sirius grunted in acknowledgement but didn’t move. “That means you have to get up.” 

“But I like it here,” he pouted. “You’re a good pillow.” Remus rolled his eyes fondly. 

“Love, I’m sure the pillow in your bed is just as good.” 

“Maybe, but it’s not warm. You are.”

“Sirius…” 

“Don’t wanna sleep,” he mutters.

“Why not?”

“Nightmares.”Remus frowned sympathetically. 

“And staying on the couch is gonna help that?”

“No. But you do.”

 “Yes, I know, I’m a really good pillow.”

 “No. I mean yes, but that’s not what I meant.” When he didn’t continue, Remus looked down curiously. Sirius was staring up at him, lips parted and eyes wide. He looked…scared. Desperate.

 “Pads, what’s wrong?” Remus asked concernedly. “Sirius?”

Sirius leaned up and his lips brushed against Remus’. Shocked, Remus pulled back, staring at Sirius with wide eyes. It took him a moment to register what had just happened. 

“Hmm, you’re pretty” Sirius murmured, and his eyes closed, breathing even and soft. Remus stared at him as it finally clicked. 

“Sirius?” he asked, but the boy was already asleep. 

Gently, Remus leaned over and kissed Sirius again gently. His lips were soft and tasted like smoke and vanilla. He didn’t move under the pressure, and Remus quickly pulled back. He stared down at the sleeping boy in his lap and smiled. Maybe late nights weren’t so bad after all.
