Who: Remus Lupin and Lily Potter
What: It's been a week now since Sirius was sent back. How are Remus and Lily coping?
When: Friday, March 16th. Afternoon
Where: Lily's apartment
Rating: PG probably
Status: in progress
It had been just over a week since Sirius had been sent back and Remus had spent the last week with Lily, much like Sirius had done back when Remus had been sent back. After spending the last few months sharing an apartment with Sirius, the last thing Remus had wanted was to be alone and since Lily didn't mind him being there, Remus had only gone back to the apartment to gather some clothes and things, not wanting to spend too much time there. He and Sirius had been making so much progress in their relationship, that being in the apartment only brought back those memories and made Remus feel like even more of a fool for letting himself get close to Sirius, only to get crushed in the end. Of course he hadn't voiced any of this to Lily; instead choosing to bottle it up inside as he tended to do on occasion.
He was grateful to Lily and work and helping her with Luke were enough to help take his mind off of Sirius not being there, but when he was by himself, it took a more concentrated effort to try to not think about it, otherwise he would only become as depressed as he had been that first day when he'd realized that Sirius and all his things were gone. He knew there was a chance that Sirius could come back, just as he had, but Remus didn't want to think about that, because there was a chance that he could be completely different then the Sirius that he had been so close to for the last few months and he didn't know what he'd do in that scenario.
