A huge wave of relief hit Sirius when Remus let go of his line of questioning.<br/>He did want to be open and honest with Remus and let him know what he was thinking and feeling about the entire thing, but it was also really overwhelming to him and he still couldn’t really get himself to think too much about their intimacy.<br/>“Right, of course,” he muttered, clearly still flustered but he was also genuinely appreciative of just how much care Remus continued to show him. It did nothing to lessen his desire for his flatmate, but he knew better than to try and act on it, unsure exactly how much of that their relation could handle.<br/>“So, you didn’t want to join me in the library?” He asked, returning to his original intro to their conversation, mostly just to feel like he could get back on solid ground.
