Losing Sleep
Remus is awake in the wee hours of the morning. He can't sleep again. That's not uncommon, has never been uncommon to him. He paces the creaking floorboards of their little farm house until his feet grow numb and then fixes himself a glass of warm milk and honey. He is sitting, watching it, without any appetite or desire to drink when he hears those same floorboards creaking towards him.
"What're you doing up?" Sirius's voice is clogged with sleep. Remus is jealous.
"I couldn't sleep."
"That's nice. But you could at least do me the honor of keeping my toes warm. No reason we should both lose sleep." Sirius rubs a hand over his eyes and then into his hair, making it look like a rat's nest. He is beautiful. Remus smiles and stands.
"Sorry, then. Let's go."
