Black Star Chapter Thirty One

Remus is back in his arms then, panting and smiling, the painted lightning strike is running down his face with sweat, but he still looks gorgeous. Sirius leans in and tells him as much. 

“I love you.” Remus murmurs against his mouth. Sirius can’t help but repeat it back. 

We're not gonna take it 

(A pledge pin) 

No, we ain't gonna take it 

(On your uniform) 

We're not gonna take it anymore

As this is the last chapter I won't be adding anyone new to my tags! That being said, thank you all so much for the incredible suppport, comments and interactions of this fanfiction! It has truly meant the world to me that people have taken to reading my work, one last time before I put the Harry Potter community behind me. Take care of yourselves! I will see you all very, very soon! As always, say hello to the moon for me! -Inked @kawaiibarty @de4thbycre4tion @idkjustlemmedrownlikerab @eyeless-jeff666 @aceofspades42 @littlejumpingjoan

Black Star Chapter Thrity

Remus is kissing him like he might not stop.  The house is asleep, it’s close to midnight and Remus is pressing kisses into every inch of his skin and Sirius is sure he’s not going to stop. Gently he curls his hands around Remus’ shoulders.  “I need to ask you something.” Sirius says then, Remus murmurs something and presses his lips to his throat instead of his lips. Sirius arches his head away for a moment before pushing Remus up. “Something important.” Remus frowns at him.  “I’m not marrying you, it’s barely been a month.” Remus goes to kiss him again but Sirius holds him back. “Sirius, I'm not marrying you.” Remus sobers up, leaning back.  “I’m not asking you to marry me.” Remus nods slowly, sitting up right and crossing his legs.  “What is it then?”

Black Star Chapter Twenty Nine

Harry looks up at him then, wondering over.  “Okay Uncle Rem-us?” Harry blinks up at him with wide eyes.  “Yeah buddy, my knees just not great.” Remus says softly, trying to ease the tense muscle there. He should have kept moving instead of sitting in the one spot all afternoon, his own fault really. Harry nods before climbing into the kitchen. There’s rummaging and then he’s back in front of him, pressing a bandaid across his clothed knee.  “Better?” Harry asks hopefully. Remus’ heart swarms.  “Yeah, yeah love. Thank you.” Remus reaches down to pick him up.

Black Star Chapter Twenty Eight

Sirius I remember the first time I truly felt loved was when I got my brother back. It had been a few years since we had seen each other last. Properly seen each other, I should say, we saw each other at school but we didn’t interact. The night I had him back in my arms, the night we were all huddled in the Potter’s lounge room sharing cinnamon hot chocolates and warm blankets was the first night I realised after all this time I did have a family.

Black Star Publishing Chapter Twenty Seven

Waking up wrapped in Sirius’ arms is starting to become a familiar feeling, one that he looks forward to each day. He’s not sure how he’s going to go back to his flat after this week, back to his own bed, away from Sirius, so for now he slots himself closer to Sirius and breathes in the morning. Sirius is warm, so warm. Their arms are firmly locked around his middle and Remus’ head is pressed up against his chest, Sirius’ heart a steady thump, thump, thump, under his ear. It’s peaceful, it’s warm and it’s far too domestic but he doesn’t care, doesn’t mind, he can’t when ‘this is right’ is echoing through his mind.

Black Star Publishing Chapter Twenty Six

“But that’s a part of life, pain is guaranteed. But Harry has people to fall back on, he has people to pick him back up and support him. We didn’t have that, Lil’s, and we turned out okay-ish.” Lily snorts.  “Speak for yourself.” She pulls her knees up to her chest. “God I'm bloody tired.” She runs a hand through her hair, curly red ringlets falling down her back. “Aren’t you?”  “Too busy.” Remus admits, “too busy to be tired, the second I don’t have something on my plate I think I’ll die.” “Rem’s.” “I’ll take a very long nap.”  “Remus.” Remus rolls his eyes, stealing the last of the cigarette.  “Yeah, I am.” Remus admits. “It’ll be over soon.” He says though, “and we’ll get through it.”  “Look at you, four months ago you were ready to fall apart.” She smiles at him and he returns it, a warmth in his heart. He goes back to his files, she steps inside and comes back out with tea and another blanket.

Black Star Publishing Chapter Twenty Five

“I can't do this.” Sirius whispers then, his voice cracking on the vowels.   “Yes you can.” Remus responds automatically, a stern look on his face, his arms crossed, “you can Pad’s, I know you can, this is nothing.”  “No I can't !” Sirius protests.  “Sirius! You can-” “Okay then I don't want to do this!” Sirius can hear the shake in his own voice, can hear how pathetic he sounds. Remus looks at him for a long moment, too many emotions flickering across his face, too many for Sirius to name, until it lands on one, it’s the same look he gives Teddy all the time, the soft sort of understanding look that takes Sirius apart almost instantly.

Black Star Publishing Chapter Twenty Four

Dear Mr Remus John Lupin, 

You’re quite clever, I’ll give you that much. I thought as you entered my house that something was quite off about you, I just failed to put my finger to it. It now has come to my attention that you lied through the entire interview you so carefully conducted. You manipulated the truth and hid your identity. Grabbing my comment was under false pretentious for photos - of which I gave you so freely. You mistook my kindness. So I took the luxury of looking into your past. 

It’s a shame, what happened to your parents, what happened to Edward Lowell Lupin, to be left in the arms of a man so unfit. 

I’ll soon set this right, 

Kindly,

Walburga Black.

BlackStar Publishing Chapter Twenty Three

“It’s time?” Remus asks and Sirius smiles blindingly at him. Remus offers his hand out, Sirius grabs it instantly climbing up to the counter.  “THIS!” Sirius thrusts a mock up of the anniversary up in the air, “IS THIS YEARS ANNIVERSARY!” He’s breathing heavily, waves of anxiety finally shredding from his skin, he can feel the tension in his shoulders ease, the numbing headache that’s been clutched to the forefront of his mind all year disappear. There’s a round of cheering, James slamming his hands down on the counter, Barty Whooping loudly above them all, Regulus is teary, Lily is smiling and Remus, Remus is staring at him like there was nothing else he wanted to look up, warm honeyed eyes seeping into his soul.

BlackStar Publishing Chapter Twenty Two

A excerpt from Sirius Black:

James Fleamont Potter. I don’t know how to begin this without mentioning him, my brother, my best friend, my saviour in this horrible frigid world. I don’t think I’d be half the man that I am today without his overbearing light shining down on my life. I don’t think I’d have half the confidence I do without him helping me back onto my feet every step of the way, I don’t think I would be here without him. I know a big portion of this magazine will be focussed on the dark side of nobles, I know that we’re working so hard, I and you reader, to take down the darkest side of nobles and the likes, but James Fleamont Potter, Euphemia Potter and Fleamont Potter are three of the kindest, sweetest, fierce, loyal, and stunning Nobles, people and humans I have ever met, and I don’t think I would be here writing this article for you all without them, so I shall mention them first and always, as my life is owed to them.

Black Star Publishing Chapter Twenty One

“It won't happen again.” Remus promises.  “No it bloody won't. I'm signing you up for therapy tomorrow.” Remus hopes he's joking.  “I don't need-” “Yes you bloody well do. And this one as well, godrick knows he can't turn out like you.” Sirius bristles. Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide “And I don't mean that in a bad way, but if he had of ran away in the middle of the storm what would you have done?”  “Panicked.” “Fucking exactly. So therapy tomorrow at 1 in the afternoon, I pulled strings. You'll be seeing her once a week until you don't need her anymore.” Remus sniffles a sob. “And I know that sounds controlling but I've seen this shit happen to Regulus and James, I'm not standing by this time hoping you pick yourself up.”

Black Star Chapter Twenty:

James lets his head tilt back until it hits the bedpost. Remus feels like he might cry. “I want you to list at least one nice thing about yourself. Right now.” “What?” Remus snorts, “no sod off.” “Uh-uh Lupin, one nice thing, right now. DBT has taught me one thing and it’s that you’re in charge, not your emotions or trauma’s or trigger responses. So say one nice thing about yourself, and then keep going.” Jame glares at him from across the bed. Remus narrows his own eyes. “My eyes… are like a swampy brown colour. Swamps are cool.” Remus tries. “Errrrrr,” James imitates a buzzer, “your eyes are golden try again.” Remus rolls his eyes, hooking his arms around his knees and dropping his chin onto them. “I uh… write decently?” “ErrRrrr!” James imitates again, “your writing is spectacular, and you wouldn’t be editing the anniversary if it were otherwise. Try again.” Remus snorts and drags his sleeve up his face. “I’m enough.” He barely whispers and James’ face softens.
