Dec09, Harry Potter, Remus/Severus, Life in the Balance
Title: Life in the Balance
Fandom: HP
Pairing: Remus/Severus
Rating: G
Note: For westernredcedar.
At first Remus kept his two lives separate. Sirius, James, and Peter were used to him often studying in the library instead of the Gryffindor common room; he got more done without their distraction, and he afterward let them copy his notes.
For a while, too, Severus accepted that Remus would still spend time with his Gryffindor friends. They both knew that they must conceal what was between them.
Eventually Remus's failure to control the bullying that Severus received brought matters to a head. Dark eyes smoldering, Severus issued an ultimatum -- and Remus didn't know how to make the choice.
