During The"Break"

The next morning Remus was feeling sick. He opened his eyes and saw Sirius by his side, with a worried look, staring at him. "Good morning. How do you feel?" Sirius asked. "Not very well. Wait! No! I told you to go away!" He said when he realized what happened last night. "Remus, please, listen to me! I- I changed my mind, ok? Please! Listen to me! We have to talk!" "We have nothing to say! Go away! Get out!" "But, Remus, please!" "No! I said GET OUT!" He screamed and started throwing pillows to Sirius until he left.

He had a really bad headache. He felt as if he was going to throw up. He took his wand from his bedside table and checked his temperature. He had a small fever. It must be from yesterday night. Maybe I should stay at bed today. I'll ask Lily tomorrow for the homework. He thought and returned to his bed. He ate a chocolate frog, read some pages of his favorite book and fell asleep.

Sirius went downstairs, struggling not to cry, and entered the Great Hall. He sat at the corner of the table and started eating. He didn't eat much, so ten minutes later, he stood up and started walking outside. He suddenly saw Lily running towards him. "Sirius! James told me what happened last night. How do you feel?" She asked. "Like the dumbest person in the whole world!" "Why!? What happened? Where is Remus?" "I fucked up, Lily. He's mad at me! Yesterday, I asked him if we could take a small break, because I wanted to think about what happened alone. He said that I am depending on James' reaction and he was right! I told him that it would just last for two days, and that I still love him. But he said "I hope so!" and he went to his bed. I went and asked him what was that and he screamed "Leave me the fuck alone!". Today, when I woke up, I saw him sleeping and went close to him. He had a fever. When he woke up, I tried to explain him that I changed my mind, but- he- he didn't want to listen to me. He will probably stay upstairs today. He won't let me even enter the room! What should I do?!"

"Well, that's something you have in common! You are both talking too fast when you are panicking! Now. Shut the fuck up and let me deal with this, ok? I'll go to talk to him after classes. I'll tell you what happened at dinner, ok?" "Fine! But tell him that I really meant it when I told him that I love him!" "Sirius! Please! I know what I am doing, please stop acting like a child!" She said and she left.

Sirius didn't go to classes that day. He went to the forest to smoke and drink. He only used to do this while he was leaving with his parents. But this time was different. He wanted to think alone and stay calm.

When Lily finished her classes, she ran to the Great Hall, took some food, and went to find Remus. She entered the boys' dorms and saw Remus practicing the spells that they had learn so far. "Remus! Are you ok? How do you feel?" "I could be better. He told you to come here, right?" "He just told me what happened. He's really worried about you, Remus. He was panicking like crazy! He does love you! Now. Eat this, and go talk with your boyfriend." She told him and gave him his food. "He's not my boyfriend anymore! He said that he wanted "a break"! " "Remus! He is your boyfriend! I know what he said but you don't understand what he meant! But he changed his mind now. He wants you back! He actually never left you, but the thing is that he does change his mind about what he said!" "I'm not really sure, Lily. Can you give me our homework and just let me think about this?" "Ok, but remember what I said. He loves you." "Yeah, ok."

Lily told Remus everything that they did that day in class and what they had for homework. After that, she left. Remus studied and tried to think about what Lily said. But he still wasn't sure.

"Hey. Sirius. I went to Remus." Lily told Sirius when she saw him at the Great Hall. "What did he say?!" Sirius asked worriedly. Lily sat down, next to Sirius and started talking. "I tried to tell him everything that you told me. I gave him his food and told him "Eat this, and go talk with your boyfriend." And... he yelled "He's not my boyfriend anymore! He said he wanted 'a break'!" But... don't worry, I really think that he is thinking about this now. He will come back to you and if he's not, then come to find me here after classes. I have a plan B. Maybe he just need a small help to change his mind. And I talked with James. He told me that he knows that he acted like a fool but he's too embarrassed to tell you. I'll bring him to you tomorrow, or the next day. But don't think about this now and do as I told you, ok?" She finished talking and took a deep breath. "You're talking exactly like a team leader! Ok, I gotta go now. Let's see if he will talk to me."

Sirius entered the boys' dorms. He saw Remus reading. James was also there. Looking for someone at the map. "Hey." James said and smiled weakly, scared if his best friend is going to yell at him. "Hey, guys." Sirius said. Remus turned his back to him. "Moony! What are you doing?! He told you "hey" and you just turn your back to him?!" James said, surprised. "James, please don't talk to him. I got what he meant. Just... leave him alone." Sirius said and went to his bed. He closed the curtains and slept.

I was thinking of making the break last a bit longer, but I really can't do that to my boys. Can you even imagine their pain?! Am I spoiling the next chapter? Probably yes, but anyways. The next chapter is going to be really short, but the one after that, is a surprise! I'm sure you know what I mean. But... Yeah. Continue reading! You're almost there!

Love ya all, Orion
