As Remus wakes up in another man’s arms it feels extremely wrong. Slowly, as not to wake the stranger, he climbs out of the bed and searches for his clothes, pulling them on as fast as he can. Without looking back, he disapparates to his flat, instantly going to the bathroom where he empties everything that he had eaten from the night before into the familiar toilet bowl. He tries to remember how he had ended up in that bed, but he can’t, and he can’t help but feel immense guilt creep back into his veins.

Not being able to stop himself, Remus quickly tore of his clothes and stepped under the shower. Lathering up the sponge with soap, and turning on the water to a scalding hot temperature, he tried his best to scrub of the imaginary dirt of his skin. Only when his skin felt raw he finally turned off the water and stepped out of the shower. Rubbing himself dry, Remus ignored the pile of clothes lying next to him and walked to his bedroom where he dressed in the first clothes his hands touched.

Now trembling slightly from the shock, he just stood there for a moment and then walked back into the living room, letting himself drop on to the couch and immediately reach out for the picture of Sirius standing on the small coffee table.

“I am sorry, it won’t happen again,” Remus whispered, his trembling fingers caressing along Sirius’s face. Remus knew that he would never get rid of the guilt as long as Sirius lived, he would run back to him, no matter what.
