In rising moon ... English

In rising moon ...


The night is far advanced and the small window behind everything is silent.

Some time ago that James, Peter and Remus sleep. The train ride and the long walk from the station to the little house lost in the woods and mountains of the north has left them exhausted, so much so that after a modest supper of bread and some grilled cheese, they fell head on old chairs in the sitting room that once was a library. Sirius, however, does not sleep. She stands by the window. From that position can best be observed and monitored, in particular, the dream of Remus. And is that the moon floats in the sky very slowly from new moon to new moon, and that change always brings restless nights for the young werewolf.

Until then just Remus has complained in a dream since I said good night and sleep peacefully James and Peter. Sirius hears breathing slowly for a moment and then yawning slightly. You feel tired but knows of no avail trying to sleep because their senses and thoughts are focused on that Remus has a quiet night, so looking for ward sleep apuna eyes tight and turns his head to look through glass. His gray gaze is lost in the woods nearby, among the high branches of trees. Some are tall and imposing, with thick branches and rough. The look and wondered how many times his dear friend will have wandered around alone for the full moon in the darkness wearing only company wolf.

Sirius sighs deeply and her gray eyes return to focus all his attention on Remus, for the first time all night, stir uneasily on the sofa. Haste, Sirius is about his friend and rubs his forehead with his hand cautiously to ensure no fever. When you feel restless and feverish, troubled removed the long brown hair that had fallen over his eyes as he heard murmuring his name in his sleep with increasing insistence. And he knows. Sirius knows that the wolf is there, in Remus, struggling for expression, seeking a way out that lets you get rid of this fragile body. And so Remus for their presence felt as close as possible, because they want to deal alone with his animal side.

"It's okay, Moony - Sirius whispers pulling out his wand and bringing forth a bowl of fresh water and a washcloth," I'm here ...

Remus shaking the blankets while Sirius name, but feel the cool wet cloth on her forehead, open your eyes and see your partner with intensity. The golden eyes shine off a burden of fear and anxiety.

- Sirius! ...

"I'm here," Sirius repeated aside the bowl of water and blankets to sit beside him all right, Moony.

Remus buried his face in his chest as this guy slides his hands on his shoulders to convey security. Remus wants agitated and afraid to feel the strength of the wolf spring up in her chest. He knows that there is no reason to fear as the full moon does not dominate the sky, but can not help but shudder at the incipient presence of the crescent moon.

Sirius ... "Hold me, please hold me tight - Remus asked in a whisper off and desperate.

Sirius is due immediately. Lying on the couch wrapped in his arms Remus gently squeezing it against his body while he mumbles:

"Relax. Everything is fine. I'm with you and not let anything hurt you.

Remus clung to him tightly and nods grateful that Sirius does not ask for the nightmares that haunted his sleep. He knows he is dying to ask because he wants to scare his fear, but do not ask anything to avoid further suffering.

Only comes over and hugs him with such tenderness that makes you feel safe from everything.

"Soon will dawn and the moon be gone, Moony. Then you'll feel better.

Safe from the moon and the wolf.

"I feel better now that you're beside me, Sirius ...

To save himself and that keeps the darkness within.

But this time, Remus does not want to silence their fears. Can not remain silent when they're around. Therefore, gray eyes staring storm who look with concern, muses:

"This time not only the moon, Sirius. Es .. All this - Remus clarified by further lowering his voice while his eyes search the small room-Son ... moth-eaten old chairs that once bore little sore my body. They are ... the corner of this house that its shadow mask past memories and pain caused by the curse of the wolf. This is the whispering of the wind that blows between loose roof tiles and whispers in my ear that my old fears ...

Sirius vent listens in silence. Not a word but embraces him even tighter, with more tenderness even when Remus snuggles against his chest again.

"And, above all, is ... the echo of their voices. The voices of my parents calling me, laughing and shouting and crying. Since we entered the house their voices haunt me.

Sirius slowly strokes her back as he brings his lips to his ear.

"It's because you miss, Rem" whispers "And they Animagus you. You know, right?

"I know.

"If it makes you feel better ... could leave as soon as the sun, Moony.

"But what about you? ... You wanted to know my house. And James and Peter looked excited at the prospect of going through the woods ...

"They will understand. What matters is that you're well - Sirius said depositing a small kiss on her forehead is resting now, Moony.

Sirius kissed her nose gently and then again begins to slide his hand on her back while stare. They stay a few minutes and, looking at each other without saying anything but perfect understanding with maintaining intense eye contact. The heat of Sirius's arms is very different blast of fever. It is comfortably warm, almost balmy. Remus sighs, feeling much calmer because Sirius only knows how to comfort him when the crescent appears in the sky.

Sirius whispers some sleep, Rem, for I care for you and Remus closes his eyes then carried away by the warmth until your breath is the rhythm with your partner and sleepiness falls back on his immersion in a peaceful sleep.

In his dream there is no moon and no wolves. Nor is there any dark or sad memories. In his dream only are he and a soft, glowing light that envelops everything.

In his dream Sirius smiles and walks beside him with its light illuminating every turn.

--------------------------------------

The first rays of the sun hurt your eyes as awake, but despite this, Sirius opened his eyes wide as he realized that Remus is not with him. Frightened away the blankets that cover and straightens on the couch while his eyes frantically runs through the small living room. Peter and James are still sleeping and no sign of Remus.

Haste, barefoot and wearing only a white short-sleeved shirt and matching pants to go a little longer than normal, Sirius jumps up and looking around the house. Not finding any room in desperate out into the garden and his heartbeat slowly recovering its normal pace when he looks at Remus standing a few steps from the huge cedar that is behind the house.

- Rem! ...

Remus is turned slightly toward him as he hears his voice and smiles with some sadness when their eyes meet. Sirius comes immediately to see him smile that way because he knows very well what's in that smile.

"At night the crescent ..., my parents and I used up a small tent next to the cedar-Remus said in a whisper-We read old books of adventure and poetry. Mama liked Yeats ...

Remus's voice breaks a couple of times while talking and, suddenly, a tear sliding slowly down her cheeks when he mentions his mother. At once, Sirius puts his arm over her shoulders, and to follow Remus's eyes can see the small picture that the young werewolf Muggle held between his fingers. It sees a small, smiling Remus sat on the grass between a man and a woman who is smiling. In the background is the tent next to the cedar.

"When we read, cooked or played with cards Remus muggles" continues recovering a little, Dad was pretty good with the cards ... we could never win a single game without some support Remus trap with a small smile on her lips And when the moon seemed to cover everything, Mom whispered Look at the stars, sky, ignores the first quarter. That's how the constellations memorized ... They did everything for my mind away from the moon and the wolf.

"Your parents must have been great.

"Yes, they were. I loved without fear at all what I am.

Remus slowly caressed the faces of their parents in the picture, then turned to Sirius and when they look gray eyes says:

"They taught me that after darkness there is always light ... And they were right. They had good reason. You are that light. My light.

When Remus is coming, Sirius could see the tears in his eyes, but also sees the sadness of his smile disappeared. And when the brown lips touch hers, Sirius responds immediately, regardless of the slight taste of salt that permeates, and wraps his arms kissing him slowly, letting Remus impose such delicious soft cadence that makes him mad.

In the end, between languid sigh, Remus deviates slightly. Supporting his forehead on Sirius, it looks and says:

I do not want to leave, Sirius.

- Are you sure?

"Yes. I want James and Peter walk through the woods.

Sirius smiles. Like that Remus too brave and determined.

"We could set up a tent and spend the night outside," suggested Remus forward.

"And playing cards," adds Sirius-Or, if you wish, Yeats could read you.

The golden eyes light up at the mention of the poet, and Sirius proposes:

"We could spend the night watching the stars, Moony, forgetting the moon and the wolf.

- I like the idea!

"So a deal?

"Deal," Remus agrees "No go. No, sir.

Showing a conspiratorial smile, Sirius says:

"A deal should be sealed, Moony ...

The ends of dawn tomorrow when the guys sealed the deal with another long, deep kiss that the two are delivered completely ... until the distant voice of James manages to both move away a little.

- Hey, flea-ridden dog, going barefoot and you do not get cold if you go soon!

Aspiring shaken by the sudden rupture of the kiss, but smiling at Remus who was given a start of fright, Sirius mumbles:

- James Cursed and cursed his spy mania!

Without taking even a second gray eyes red lips with her boyfriend, Sirius shouts:

- It's not something you care, Horns, so do not bother!

- As you wish, but do not say we did not warn you when you walk spreading slobber and snot all over like last time! - Answered the little voice distant.

Remus and Sirius just laughed softly muttered growls Fuck you, Potter.

James is right, "Remus said laughing," We should go, Sirius.

-Enter to clarify some points with the villain ... but you and I have a deal.

"I have. Tonight, you and me under the stars.

Sirius smiles that smile that belongs only to Remus, and to look at the young werewolf sees a flash of that soft, bright light that illuminates the way in dreams. And he knows. Remus knows that light, the light from its star, will always be with him, guiding his steps and accompanied him through the dark paths that are hidden inside.
