    Summary

    Sirius Black was happy--relatively speaking. He had a job, he had friends, he was even starting to slowly rebuild his relationship with his brother.

    During one of their bi-annual phonecalls, Regulus drops the bomb: Walburga and Orion Black heard about Sirius’ relationship with Remus Lupin. And now after 10 years of not speaking to Sirius they want to try; they want to reach out and try to form some semblance of a relationship with him. It was like a dream.

    The only problem?

    Sirius and Remus broke up two years ago.

    Summary

    They’re so close. Sirius can feel Remus’ hot, bated breath on his skin. He can see every one of Remus’ honey freckles and the white spiderwebs that course through his scar tissue. He can hear every one of Remus’ sharp inhales and shaky exhales; It’s the only sound he can hear above his own heart racing through his veins.

    And his heart is doing that —racing. But it’s not like a thud, thud, thud in his chest or even a soft, fluttering sound like a warm, Irish lilt. The sound is more like a swoosh, like a pendulum swing, jumping from white-hot anticipation to cold-blooded fear and back again.

    -or-

    Remus is a storm blowing through Sirius’ small town and Sirius is laid out on the waterlogged cobblestone streets waiting to be washed away.

    Summary

    “I’m so, so sorry,” the man continued, wiping a bead of sweat from the side of his temple with the sleeve of his faded Blondie t-shirt. He wore ripped black jeans and black and white Chuck Taylors and had his own messy curls, just like the baby. “I had no idea Teddy would be such a handsy little fucker at these story times, but he’s always grabbing… fuck, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t say fuck in the children’s room. Shit, I did it again, I’m so sorry, I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with me.”

    After James and Lily died, Sirius Black's therapist told him not to date for a year. And that's just as well. He's got a 13-month-old baby now and quite enough to deal with, thanks. But the nosy neighbors in his building keep trying to set him up and won't take no for an answer. Enter Remus Lupin, another single dad who pretends to be Sirius's boyfriend, just to get the old lady brigade off his back and nothing more. Nothing more at all.

    Summary

    I've found silence is best enjoyed with an open heart beating next to you
    But for now be my darling and whisper your words to the rolling moon;
    Rolling moon

     

    ***

    “You came looking for me?” Sirius asked quietly after a moment

    “Mhm," kiss, "it’s cold – wanted my new favorite space heater to keep me warm.”

    Sirius snorted and pulled away to look at Remus. “If either of us is the space heater it might be the one of us who runs so warm he wears shorts even in winter…”

    Remus smiled, amused. “Are you calling me hot?”

    ***

    When James Potter inherits his father’s game reserve in South Africa and spends a few months there learning the ropes of the business, of course Sirius has to follow him. He owes it to him to support him while he navigates his grief and the overwhelming task of managing a game and nature reserve bigger than some small countries. But in Africa, Sirius finds more than just a way to give back to his best mate until they make their way back home to Britain. Instead, he finds Remus, a tall, tanned and grumpy ranger who's crispy exterior hides a heart of shy, mushy gold who might make him question where his home really is.
