Summary: It doesn’t matter that you haven’t yet managed to verbalise what you feel.

I almost lost him today. If I hadn’t arrived when I did...

You don’t complete the thought. Instead, you turn to enfold him into a gentle embrace; the weight of him in your arms feels, well, right in a way you’re not sure you can explain to anyone (even Remus himself). He snuggles closer to you and you start to rub his back slowly, giving wordless comfort.

You could get used to being like this, with him.

‘Remus?’

‘Yes, Sirius?’

‘Never mind. Doesn’t matter.’

You drop a tender kiss on his head and concentrate on the feel of him, instead.
