The end has really stuck with me. I am torn because I am not sure if Sirius is being self-sacrificing or selfish.
I prefer to let my readers make up their own minds about stuff I leave for interpretation, but I'll agree with your assessment that it is a mix of the two.
I want a continuation where Remus gets stubborn Sirius to see how stupid he is and his noble denial only hurts everyone. Then they fall back into bed together and have more scorching sex.
If it makes you feel any better, there was always going to be a second part to this. I wasn't going to leave it like this. I just couldn't get around the prompt. She wanted them to not start off together and then to not have to admit their feelings. To me that said they didn't end up together in this piece. The fix is half-way written and will be my February submission.
Again, thank you for the lovely comment and I am sorry for hurt. A fix is coming, I promise.
