a fact:
remus is beautiful.
sirius knows this, of course. in his ever changing, ever evolving atmosphere, remus is a rock on which sirius can always rest. remus is his anchor, his star in the sky, and whenever sirius feels lost he can look up and feel at peace again.
it also helps that remus is a gorgeous, gorgeous man, and in his more teasing moods sirius will remind him of this, poking his boyfriend on the nose and laughing when remus shoves him back.
but there are some days where it hits him harder than others, the days when the sun glows through the room and they’re studying and their hands brush and sirius is a mess. the days when they press together and kiss and the sound of their breaths could change history. the moments after every full moon adventure when they’re messy and tired and alive, sleepless nights with the moon shining through the open window where sirius can see every scar, every mark on remus’ body that he wants to explore, can hear every breath that catches in his lungs, because sirius black is not one to hesitate but god remus looks so beautiful, every time they’re drinking butterbeer and their legs brush under the table, every time their hands entwine and warmth radiates from their palms, every time remus looks at him and smiles and says i love you, whether it’s buoyant with joy or whispered in early morning drowsiness.
sirius is not used to being loved. sirius is used to being hated, actually, given his godawful family, but remus makes him feel like he is loved and that he is worthy of that love. and in the best moments sirius smiles, eyes crinkling, and says i love you too and it feels like the most reckless, most awesome thing ever.
remus is beautiful, and sirius loves him.
