"Just Causes"
Who:  Severus Snape & Remus Lupin
When: 6th Year
Chapter One:  Here
Chapter Two: Here


Tomorrow night, this place would be filled with a beast tearing at itself until his friends could arrive to keep it calm and keep it company.  Tonight, there was a beast of a different sort in the room, one unnamed but just as fearful.  Swallowing, it was all that Severus could do to clean up as bit before Remus's mouth was on him again.

He laughed.  Laughed.  Mostly this was directed at himself for being so pathetically stupid.  All this time he could have been with Remus and instead, they had left each other feeling miserable over misunderstandings.

Severus was quiet.  Where they were going to do, he wasn't quite sure but he wanted to find out!

He laid next to Severus and smiled sheepishly. He liked when the other touched him. Even something has light as moving some hair out of face. It was the little things like that. "Thank you." Remus looked down again. "For everything, really."

It pained him to smile, but he did his best. The past few days had him thinking. First about Sirius, but while that still left a sore spot, he was slowly being able to move on. He didn't want to bring up the theory about his emotions with Severus. Remus didn't want to think about what if all of this was fake, even if the other didn't realize it.

"It's just notes," Severus remarked, naive to an almost unreasonable degree. He continued to lightly touch Remus's face, tracing scars old and new. Should Remus bring up his theory, Severus would probably have just laughed and told him it was ridiculous.

He stretched an arm over his shoulders and settled in against him, sighing quietly against his ear.

Remus shifted slightly and leaned into him. He pressed his lips to Severus' lightly. He didn't just mean the notes. He meant for being there. For always being there. He'd be there even more if it weren't for Remus. If Remus wasn't so afraid of losing his friends.

He wrapped an arm slowly around the other, flinching from the movement. But he didn't mind the pain. It was his own fault he kept beating himself up every month, though luckily this month was not as nearly bad as the previous month. A few days in the Infirmary was nothing compared to almost two weeks in St. Mungo's.

Murmuring something not quite audible against Remus's lips, Severus found himself smiling. Having his mouth curve upwards was still foreign to him, but when he did it, his entire face just lit up. He sighed lightly, fingers curling around the bits of hair that framed his face and his ears.

He did rather like to kiss him. Perhaps too much? Trying to be very, very careful of his injuries, the slowly waning moon having less of an effect on Remus's libido, Severus lightly nibbled on the werewolf's lower lip before returning just to stroke his hair.

Each day brought them closer. Each moment reinforced whatever they was turning out to be. Severus loved it.

Even if the moon had little affect on his libido, the fact was Remus was still a teenage boy. It didn't take much to get him in the mood. It was just the moon made it so that those around him were also affected.

Remus pushed himself closer to Severus, kissing him back again. For as much as Severus liked kissing him, Remus was probably equal in that. It was nice. Even when the kisses were needy and full of lust, there was this other side to them - something he didn't get when Sirius had kissed him, not even when he did the latest time.

He was tired and sore, but that didn't stop him. He was used to this. But he'd never had someone to be there with him. Sure, the Marauders cared. He knew that. They were still close friends, but Remus never shared the pain with them. Not like this.

Remus blinked slowly, a hand going through Severus' hair as he kissed him slowly again. There was longing there, longing and contentment. While everything else was going on, they had this moment in this room and Remus was okay with that.

When each kiss brought a whimper from Remus, Severus drew back, hand to his chest, and hushed him. He sat up, fingers moving to the wolf's chest. He knew he would not like the marks he found once the buttons at the neck of his polo shirt were undone, but why lay with such barriers between them?

Severus, despite his own scars and terribly pale body, loved feeling Remus's skin to his.

He did not look up as he undid Remus's belt, tugging down his Khakis as he pushed up the shirt until Remus removed it for him, revealing long scars and even more bandages.

His thighs were scratched up too, and for whatever reason, Severus was possessed to kiss them. Upon release of his erection from his underwear, Severus found the need to place another kiss on the underside of his cock.

This act ought to give him pause, but it didn't. He could figure out what to do as he went.

Remus didn't mind undressing with Severus. He knew the fresh scars were always hard to swallow and he was ashamed of them, but he knew that Severus felt the same way. They had the same scars, even if they got them from different means. The only difference was that Remus was now determined that Severus would never get another one - at least at the hands of his father who gave them to him in the first place.

He continually flinched while undressing, but Severus' soft kisses soothed the pain. Even if he was still partially shocked at the kisses below the belt. That was something new. New and definitely amazing.

Remus swallowed hard, that much more turned on by Severus. He still remembered what Sirius threatened though. "Y-you don't have to do that." He said, breathlessly.
