February 4th, 1977, was a Friday. It was also a full moon. Maybe if it had been left like that, things would’ve been simple. As it came to be, it wasn’t just a full moon; not like the other ones usually were. It was one that Sirius Black would remember for the rest of his life.

“Well, Remus, have you ever done this before?”
Remus shook his head and lit up by a lone streetlight, Sirius noticed the way his cheeks and the tips of his ears seemed to darken slightly.
“That’s what I thought.” Sirius crushed the cigarette under the heel of his boot. Then, he stepped up to hook his elbow with Remus’s and started walking them back towards the hotel.
“Besides,” he added, meeting Remus’s gaze with a twinkle in his eyes. “With a smile like that, how could I ever say no?”

from something to nothing to something again
25K. E. Complete. Sirius/Remus.
In 2018, Remus Lupin walked out of Sirius’s life with no warning, no apologies, and no explanation. Sirius learns to be fine with it, he grows his life and his success into something most people would only dream of. He travels, he works, he’s on billboards, he’s got a nephew on the way. He’s doing more than fine.
Until Remus comes back after eight years of nothing, looking gloriously sun kissed and freckled from two years in the Mediterranean. Suddenly Sirius is not fine anymore.
