Drabble: Hush

[lebateleur]

I appear to have entered another challenge fest, specifically the queerditch_pub drabble remix. The following drabble entry was made possible in part by the pairing Harry/Remus and the word 'hush.' Weighing in at 100 words on the dot, I give you:
my drabble:

Hush
by Trismegistus

Harry visits Grimmauld Place frequently, even skips his lessons to do it, although he always has some excuse at the ready. Remus knows, but he'll let it continue until Dumbledore says otherwise.

They share their grief through silence, by stubbornly discussing everything save the one person they long to talk about. Until one day Harry says, "I broke the mirror he gave me, you know. And I burnt his letters last summer, after... So I don't even have anything left of him."

"Hush," Remus whispers, and gives Harry the taste of Sirius, which he's kept on his lips these long decades.

You managed to convey a lot of angst in 100 words. Excellent job!

Wheee! You liked it. Thanks:)

The best part is that now someone else has to take that and turn it into an actual piece of fiction. I can't wait.
