Who: Regulus/Remus
When: Morning, 18 April
Where: Slytherin dormitory
What: Regulus needs to talk to Remus

Regulus had avoided Remus. It wasn't something easy with a population of two dozens, but he'd done an amazing job, eating in his rooms and working most of the day. He just needed time to himself to deal with what had transpired on Wednesday night, to understand the things that he had said and done. He probably would need more than a few days, but he owed Remus and explanation.

He sent a message asking Remus to come to the dormitory. Rules dictated that he go and see Remus for an apology, but there was no way that he would have this discussion in the Gryffindor tower, with Sirius and Potter around.

He was anxious when he heard the knock. Kreacher opened the door and let Remus in. The Slytherin common room was much the same, but the table had been made bigger with more chairs. He didn't know why since he didn't entertain, but Kreacher insisted that it was proper to have a dining room table.

"Good morning. I have prepared brunch for us," he said, gesturing toward the table. "And by me, I do mean Kreacher, so there's no fear of being poisoned by my non existent attempts at cooking."

Remus laughed softly, marvelling a little at the sort of confidence Regulus must possess to be able to say that with a straight face and mean it. But, the part about expectations rang true enough. "I don't know that I don't like it, necessarily. I mean, it's different, but I've had experience with expectations. It's just a little surreal to think of my name meaning anything, that reforms were made because of me." He shrugged. "I'm used to being overlooked."

He blinked in surprise. Snape was looking to improve the potion to relieve the pain? That was... Remus wasn't sure what to make of that. "I don't necessarily want to keep werewolf culture alive, but I don't think we should be forgotten. We were forced to live on the fringes of society or hunted down for centuries because of fear and the only thing to show we existed at all is that Harry Snout tripe."

Oh, that was the reaction he wanted to see. Watching the expression that came over Regulus' face, hearing the change in his breathing, it sent a thrill down Remus' spine. "Gryffindors are brash, hat doesn't say anything about fair," he teased, feeling his own breathing grow heavy at how obvious Regulus' pleasure was in his tone. "How rough?" he asked, still eating, but keeping his eyes on Regulus, wanting make sure he didn't miss a tell that indicated more talk than actual experience.

"You don't have to like it, but accept it. It's the problem with Sirius, really. He didn't like the expectations and fought them daily, when it would have been a lot less painful to go along," he said with a shrug. "Expectations are necessary to make us better. People always complain, but once we ignore those expectations, then we have the fall of civilization. In this case, very literally." He smiled. "And you need to stop thinking you should be overlooked, because you shouldn't."

Regulus shrugged. "Potayto, potahto. Once you have the Wolfsbane, you stop the transformation, you're basically ending the curse. People have short memories and there are enough problems in life that no one will care about the problems of a group of people who barely exist anymore when there are other more immediate plans."

Of course talking about traditions, werewolves and society became almost impossible when discussing sex, but Regulus tried to be rational in his answer. "I am not certain. As I said, my experience is rather limited. I know what we did, and I'm aware that it was not truly rough," he said, cheeks heating up. Regulus cursed the Black pale skin, because he probably looked ridiculous at the moment, but he felt that it was important to tell the truth. "I guess I enjoy the possessiveness more than the roughness, but I'm not sure, because again my experience is rather limited to you in this field. Technically I was... I was a virgin. Well, okay not technically unless you count handjobs and blowjobs."

Remus' hands stilled for a moment as he cut into his tomatoes. Regulus had told him he didn't have much experience, but Remus hadn't realized how far the castle had gone, giving the memories of a married woman who'd, clearly had sex since she had conceived a child with her husband, to a virgin. It was almost as if the castle had wanted to make this more complicated than it needed to be. Even then, Remus couldn't help but feel equal parts elated at being able to introduce Regulus to all the pleasures of sex and dirty with the knowledge that most virgins weren't looking to lose their innocence to a whore unless they paid for it.

Expectations and werewolf curses were forgotten as he set his tableware down and reached for Regulus again. Twining their fingers together, he leaned in to press his lips to the side of Regulus' neck.

"I do not count handjobs and blowjobs," he replied, smiling a little because he wasn't going to make this more awkward for Regulus than it was by nature of being sex and being new. "Although, both are excellent in their own right. But, there are a lot of things we can try, see if you like them." He pressed another kiss to the juncture of Regulus' jaw. "A little rough play is good, too, if you think you'd like to see what it's like. There are...boundaries, but we can discuss those."

"Whatever you're thinking, please stop. It was really fine and fun, and you made it so," Regulus said, knowing the Gryffindor mind a little too well after spending years watching his brother. "Or at the very least share so I can tell you to stop after hearing whatever it is you are thinking."

He grinned at the kiss. "Oh, I think you missed the part where I said that I want to have lots and lots of sex. Trying things out is exactly what I had in mind." He brushed Remus' hair to the side and kissed him again. "I'd like that, and maybe you can stop worrying about boundaries and whatever else. I can tell you if I don't like something. It's as simple as that. And if you don't listen, not that I worry about that, I can hex you. Really, your conscience will be all right."

Regulus looked at Remus for a moment. "I don't regret what happened. You need to believe that. Without those memories, I might have never tried to be with a man, so sure that I should do the right thing and find a woman to marry, but with another man, I might have decided that a marriage to a woman was worth it."

""I was thinking," Remus drawled with a smile, "that it wasn't fair for the castle to rob you of at least knowing you were losing your virginity."

Snaking his arm around Regulus' waist, he pulled both man and chair closer until they were touching down the length of their thighs. "I was also thinking that I'm going to have a lot of fun introducing you to all the things we can try together."

He slid his free hand into Regulus' hair, but instead of hauling the other man closer, he met that grey-eyed gaze with a serious one of his own. "I think I love that you already seem to truly know that the last thing I want to do is hurt you." Now he did claim a kiss, pulling away only enough to add "but, I was talking about my boundaries because before you the last time I had sex because I wanted to was when I was nineteen and there have been a lot of things since then that were less than pleasant."

Remus pressed their foreheads together. "I don't regret what happened, either," he admitted softly. "Part of me thinks I should because of the lack of initial choice. But, rather than be horrified at what happened, I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, us, and wanting more. I'm glad it was you. And I'm glad there are warming spells and preservation charms because I don't think I can keep my hands off you any longer."

"Something for Gryffindors and sentimental fools," Regulus said with a shrug. "But while I might not have known at the moment, I still know, Remus. I remember every touch, every kiss. I remember the way you looked at me, and maybe not all of it was real, but the beautiful thing of what happened is that you can take my virginity again and this time everything will be ours."

He resisted the urge to straddle Remus, because it was unbecoming and they were having breakfast, but it took all of his self-control to stop. "We will have lots of fun." He frowned at the explanation. "Sorry, I didn't think about that and of course your boundaries but considering I don't know much of anything, unless you plan to introduce something you don't enjoy, I doubt that will be a problem."

He outright grinned at the end. "A gryffindor with limited patience. How rare!" he teased, but he got up, not worrying about the food. Kreacher could take care of that. He took Remus' hand and walked toward the stairs. His room was on the boy's side. He had taken the one on the first floor and decorated it with pieces from around the school. "I'm still in the process of decorating- And you probably don't care. I don't even care right now," he said as they entered the room."

An uncharacteristically shy smile appeared on his face. "I didn't expect this invitation to turn quite like this." And he found that he was much bolder when discussing things than when actually doing. One might say like your typical Slytherin. "I'm afraid that I don't know where I want to start. Other than naked and with you."

"You're now dating a sentimental Gryffindor," Remus teased with a chuckle. "But, you also make an excellent point and we will have plenty of opportunities to make more of our own memories. Starting now."

They could discuss boundaries another time. And they would because already Remus had thought of some things Regulus might like to try that would at least need a little discussion beforehand. But, it wasn't a concern for that morning and he squeezed Regulus' hand while he followed him up the stairs toward Regullus' bedroom, a matching grin on his own face as an excitement he hadn't felt in ages bubbled up inside him. He wasn't surprised at the comments on decorating, although it did make him realize that he hadn't even thought of decorating or settling in. He'd been so glad to have a roof over his head and a real bed to sleep in, that he'd just taken the basics the house elves had provided him.

"You can show me the decorations later," he agreed, pulling Regulus into his arms. "Why don't we start here. And then we can see where it takes us." So saying, he dipped his head the short distance needed to capture Regulus' lips in another kiss, finally allowing himself to drag Regulus' lower lip between his own to worry and suckle at until it was plump and swollen, just as he'd pictured in his head so often in recent nights.

Dating sounded like a silly word. People like Regulus didn't date but he didn't care when Remus was looking at him that way and then they were kissed, and it wasn't like the quick kisses at the club or even the kisses from downstairs. This kiss was full of promises and need.

Regulus clasped his fingered behind Remus' neck tilting his head up so they could get more comfortable. For a fleeting moment, he thought that they could do this forever, but forever only lasted minutes before he was pressing his body against Remus', seeing the friction he remembered so well from their week together.

"It should lead us to taking our clothes off," he said, completely out of breath from a simple kiss. "I want- I don't know what I want," he said, chuckling, but his voice held undertones of fear, embarrassment and desire all wrapped around each other in a cord that was squeezing him in. "What do you want?" It seemed important to ask.

"I want you," Remus replied huskily, letting his hands roam over Regulus' back. He was half hard from one kiss and the only choice he was regretting in that moment was the tightness of the jeans he wore. His hands moved down, cupping Regulus' arse and pulling their bodies flush together.

"I want to peel that robe off you and lay you out on the bed naked," he continued, resuming the exploration of that long aristocratic neck with hot, open-mouthed kisses, his tongue flickering against the flushed skin, "discover every inch of you." With his teeth, he gently worried at the tendon of Regulus' neck where it just began to curve into his shoulder, sucking lightly enough not to leave a mark as he didn't know if it would be welcome, but hard enough to leave the skin red and aching for a bit.

"I want to feel your hands all over me while I fuck you until you scream from the pleasure of it."
