Summary: Severus and Remus wake up together on a foggy Autumn morning.
Notes: Have a wonderful Samhain, Islandsmoke! Thanks to A for the quick beta.
Thick fog creeps from the river banks, towards the cobbled streets. The dawn light struggles to break through the thick mist as the inhabitants of Muggle London wake, opening their eyes to greet a new day.
Streetlamps continue to blaze, their light weakening as the sun rises. Curtains slide apart, faces peer out onto the streets and hands slide over window panes to wipe away the dew of the morning.
Inside one of the terraced houses, gentle snores fill the room. The cool light of autumn on the cusp of winter, fails to wake the men inside from their slumber. Their limbs entwine with crisp linen and their hair tangles on the pillows in ash-brown and ink-black. Their chests rise and fall together, and a carelessly draped hand settles protectively over the scars of the past.
Long, ink-stained fingers travel over coarse hair and rest upon warm skin, soothed by a reassuring heartbeat which thrums steadily and proclaims I'm alive.
Lips meet in a sleepy good morning and the kiss crescendos into a deep embrace.
As the nightmares of old battles disappear with the last remnants of sleep, Severus and Remus hold on to the warmth and welcome the morning.
