Remus ended the call but didn’t move right away. Instead, he kept his gaze fixed on his phone, took a slow, deep breath, and closed his eyes. Sirius watched him. He couldn’t look away if he tried. But when Remus finally looked up at Sirius, his expression had suddenly cleared. Gone was any trace of fear or uncertainty. Also gone was any hint that barely two minutes before they’d been grasping at each other’s bodies and panting into each other’s mouths in the most intense kiss Sirius had ever experienced in his life. Remus simply slung his hands into his pockets as though nothing had happened and gave Sirius an apologetic half laugh.
