Another short one, Sirius has nightmares
Word Count: 505

Sirius always had nightmares, thanks to his fucked up family. Recently he'd been having them more often than he'd like to. Tonight seemed to be the worst, he'd gone to bed before Remus and woke up not even an hour later due to a nightmare. He glanced at the clock, it was only 11, he knew his boyfriend could stay up for hours. He jumped out of bed and into the living room where Remus was sitting reading. "Remus!!" 

Remus looked up, and sat his book aside "Sirius are you okay?" 

Sirius flopped on the couch into his arms "I had another nightmare" 

"Oh, honey" Remus held him tight

Sirius's face was buried in his chest and he started crying. 

"It's all going to be fine" Remus rubbed his back, he placed gentle kisses on the top of his head and ran his other hand through his hair. 

Sirius looked up at Remus through teary eyes.

Remus could've broke, he hated seeing his lover crying. "Are you up for talking about it?" 

Sirius sat up and Remus began wiping away his tears. "Yeah, it usually helps get it out" 

"I'm not forcing you to, if you want to you can" Remus reminded him

"I know but I should get it out" Sirius paused "I've been having repeating dreams over the curses used on me and my brother and all the things said to us, I can still hear my bitch of a mom's voice and her telling me I was a disappointment" 

"She was a horrible person Sirius" Remus murmured

"More like she is, bitch is still alive" Sirius sighed 

"Well I like acting like she isn't" 

"Can we do something to take my mind off of it?" Sirius asked

Remus nodded "What should we do?" 

"Can we watch one of those muggle movies?" 

"Of course, do you want anything while I'm up?" Remus asked

"Many blankets, and snacks" Sirius said 

"What snacks?"

"Any" 

"Okay" 

Remus returned soon with everything requested. "What movie?" 

"Ummm.." 

"I'm gonna take that as an any" Remus grabbed a random one out of the stack and popped it into the player. He then sat back down on the couch with Sirius now snuggled into his chest. "Are you going to be able to stay awake for long?"

"Maybe.." Sirius yawned 

"I'll take that as a no" 

"I can!" 

"Shh why don't you just go to sleep?" Remus mumbled 

"Fine" Sirius grumbled, he was already falling asleep.

Remus made sure to keep rubbing his back, keeping him calm in his sleep, he didn't want him to wake up to another nightmare. He ended up staying up to finish the movie before passing out. 

"Re" Sirius murmured, he lightly poked his face.

"Hm?" Remus woke up, yawning 

"I didn't have another nightmare," Sirius said with a smile.

"That's great dear" another yawn "I'm tired" 

"Keep rubbing my back and I'll fall back asleep" 

Remus started rubbing his back again. 

"Thanks.." 

The two spent most of the morning passed out on the couch.
