a/n: i disappear for months and come back with a remus blurb!! its the same remus and r as look after each other but you don't have to read that

---—---

remus didn’t knock on your door. he had stopped knocking on your door a few months after you moved in.

there was soft, old music coming from your kitchen and a smile crossed his face. he could picture you before he saw you, twirling around the kitchen making some sort of soft pastry he was sure he’d end up ‘taste testing’ before they were all done.

sure enough, when he entered the kitchen there you were, twirling around in fluffy pyjama pants patterned with cartoon characters and a tight-fitting tank top that he couldn't help but linger on. he clumsily leant on the doorframe and smiled as you swayed your hips and sang along quietly to the music.

“i can’t do my homework and i can’t think straight,

i meet her every morning ‘bout a half past eight, ”

you were rolling cinnamon rolls and placing them into a baking tin. your hair was pulled into a loose ponytail causing some pieces to fall out and lay across your face and neck. remus’ smile grew at the way your nose scrunched when a piece got in your eye.

“i’m acting like a lovesick fool,

you’ve even got me carrying your books to school, ”

its a song he had heard you listen to you before but never sing along to, so he was thoroughly enjoying it. there was a small homemade bracelet on your wrist that matched one that remus was wearing under his sweater.

“hey hey, set me free,

stupid cupid stop picking on me, ”

you spun around and finally noticed remus making you yelp in surprise, “remus when did you get here.”

it takes him a moment to process your words and slowly blinks, “uh about a minute ago?”

you hummed in response and covered the tin with a towel and place it in the fridge, “how was sirius’?”

“it was good,” he watched you set an alarm on your phone and moved closer, leaning over the bench to observe you.

“did you drive home? i thought you were gonna smoke, i don’t like you driving while high remmy.” you frowned and washed your hands off.

“no james and lily dropped me off.”

“they weren’t high?”

“lily wasn’t there she just came to pick me and james up.”

“good.” you grabbed his hand and pulled him into a hug.

remus wrapped his arms around you and held you close. he buried his nose in your hair and inahled deeply. the smell of cinnamon around the room couldn’t compare to the way it clung to your hair and skin.

you looked up at him and pressed a kiss to his cheek, scrunching your nose at the scratchy feeling of his stubble. he looked down at you with a similar look of adoration and kissed your forehead in response.

both of you soaked up each other's presence, just stayed together inside the warm kitchen.

the song changed over and you had matching smiles across your faces. remus grasped your hands and pulled away slightly to wrap one arm around your waist.

you giggled and wrapped your hand not holding his around his neck, “you gonna dance with me rem?”

“you’re lucky i’m high,” he grumbled.

i know i stand in line

until you think you have the time

to spend an evening with me

remus was a perfect gentleman, you’d thought so when you met him. not in the traditional way - he was a drug dealer - but he always did the little things. opening drinks and doors for you, helping you to bed and holding your hair back when you drink too much, always keeping snacks and water for you in his car, and now, dancing with him in your kitchen, you are certain that in his own untraditional way, he was perfect.

and if we go some place to dance

i know there is a chance

you won’t be leaving with me

he spun you around as gracefully as he could and you let out a loud giggle before falling back into him and he swears his heart grows. if purgatory was where he were bound he was certain the memory of that laugh could keep him sane.

then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place

and share a drink or two

you both moved closer to each other. you could feel his breath on your cheek. his lips parted as if he wanted to say something but the words wouldn’t come to him.

and then i go and spoil it all

by saying somethin’ stupid like ‘i love you’

he closed his mouth and leaned down to kiss your cheek instead, “you look beautiful.”

the sincerity in his voice caused your breath to catch in your through and it took a second to formulate a response, “you're so handsome remmy.”

your hand traced a scar on his lip, you wanted to kiss him.

so you pulled away.

you couldn’t. so instead you rested your head on his shoulder and continued to sway to the music with him.

it was better to have him as a friend and suffer the pain in your heart than to not have him at all.
