It was only as they started to make their way down the long hallway that Severus realized why Remus wasn’t angry. He was focused on a more pressing emotion: fear.

Every face was focused on Remus, every gaze full of disgust and hatred. Remus held his head high. His only reaction was a barely-noticeable tremor, running through his body like a current.

Severus, not usually prone to public displays, reached forward to squeeze Remus’ hand. He glared at the crowd. Remus smiled at him and he felt his heart give a leap.

Let them stare, he thought as they strode forward together.

Much love.
