Sirius didn't know whether to be relieved or utterly heartbroken. Maybe it was a bit of both.

So things really had changed between them. He had felt it, but he had never parsed it enough to put into words, and part of that was probably because it was sentiments that were coming from her only, not from him. He hadn't understood it, but now there it was.

He didn't know what to say to any of that, either. It was so good to know that she wasn't going to leave him - that she was still in love with him and that she thought about him at random times. But it tore him apart to know that she felt she couldn't be his best mate, that she couldn't talk to him, that she saw him as somebody entirely different now that they were together.

He didn't know what to say, so he just didn't say anything. Not for a long time. He just stood there staring at her, the shock and hurt evident on his face. Eventually, he shifted his gaze to a point somewhere beyond her. His breaths pulsed in his ears in an even rhythm, until eventually he broke the silence.

"I don't want that." His voice was low and sullen.
