[Remus shuts his eyes himself, leaning against Hermione and wrapping his arms loosely around her in return as she embraces him. He nods, the smallest of movements, but it's a nod nonetheless, in response to her words.]

I know he did. He. [He lets out something of a laugh, and the sound is pained and choked, as it forces its way up his throat.] If there's one thing I never doubted about Sirius Black, it was his capacity to love. [Sometimes it drove him up the wall. Sometimes it made him doubt himself - how could he possibly think to match the unquestioning affection that the other man offered him? Like the giant dog that he was, unassuming.]

If only... If only I hadn't kept so many secrets, Hermione. If only I had trusted him as much as he had trusted me... [It was why Lily and James had died, after all. Because he had lost Sirius's trust. And in turn, he had lost everything.]

[He shakes his head slightly, leaning into the touch of her hand. He didn't know, no. They couldn't have, she says. People have said before. But he still has to wonder whether that is the truth or not. They had always taken Peter for granted. And look at where it had got them.

It's when she leans back and he sees her tears that he knows that he's taken this too far. Burdened her too much.]
Oh, Hermione. Don't cry. Not for me, not for us. [He reaches up to brush a tear from her own face.] It isn't your fault that our time has past. I'm sorry for unloading this much on you. It was wrong of me to do so...
