• remus has had heart eyes for you for months
• but he gets extremely nervous whenever you so much as glance in his general direction
• he'll gather his courage and he'll walk up to you and you'll smile at him and he'll forget his own name
• so he'll ask,
• "um, have you seen my potions textbook?"
• "but... remus, you're... holding it"
• the poor boy practically turns into a tomato at that
• he doesn't know what to say
• meanwhile james and sirius are howling with laughter
• thankfully he doesn't have to say anything
• you just smile that beautiful smile that makes him feel like he's in muggle heaven
• you pat him affectionately on his burning cheek and leave
• on the inside he's celebrating
• 'she touched me!'
• but on the outside he just slinks back to james and sirius
• "oh moony, if there were prizes for talking to girls, you'd win gold for sure"
• "shut up prongs"

• james decides to give remus a flirting lesson
• sirius is no help
• he's just dying of laughter in the background
• because james can't flirt
• but he doesn't say that because this is hilarious
• "okay, so you've gotta hold your head up high, and don't forget to wink. girls love that"
• "then why don't you have a girlfriend?"
• thud
• sirius just fell off his bed
• remus is not impressed
• "shut up moony"
• someone help sirius

• but remus knows he needs do something
• he just cannot deal with james and sirius's crash course in 'flirting for dummies 101'
• and he's actually feeling pretty good about today
• until he nearly trips over his own feet because he's so nervous
• but never mind that
• he's still going for it
• he even made himself flashcards
• so there's no way he could mess this up now
• then he spots you coming out of the library
• 'it's now or never, lupin'
• so he takes a deep breath
• and he walks up to you
• you smile at him and he tries with all his might not to melt
"hey remus, what's up?"
• he clears his throat, summons all his courage and goes for it
"hey, (y/n), was, uh,"
• okay maybe he can't remember his line
• he's lucky you're more patient than lily is with james
• he pulls out his flashcards
"okay, uh... so was your father a thief? because someone-"
• poor remus should have memorized it
• because he just dropped all his cards out of nerves
"oh merlin i'm sorry i'm sorry you're just so pretty merlin sorry you're just too pretty, fuck"
• you think it's adorable
• but you're also concerned because he seems so flustered
• he's blushing so much you almost think he has a fever
• he quickly gathers all his cards
• he's just skimming all of them
"um... i don't... i don't have a card for this"
• he doesn't
• he has more pickup lines than he can use
• but nothing useful here
• you're smiling softly
"so, remus, was your father a thief? because someone stole the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes"
• if you wanted to turn remus into a tomato
• you could just have cast a spell
• but this works too
"um.. i... um..."
• the poor boy has no idea what to do
• james's course didn't cover this
"i like you too, rem"
• so you ended up asking him out
• he said yes so quickly
• you made plans
• and that was the beginning of a lovely relationship
• well, as soon as remus learned to be less nervous around you
