Summary
Remus doesn't do blind dates.
They must be the worst possible social situation humankind has ever invented: two strangers some people have decided that maybe they should get in a committed relationship. You have two hours.
So no, he wouldn't touch that with a ten yard stick, not if he can help it.
But he knows better than to try and argue with Lily, so, here he is.

Summary
Another gust blew by, whistling in Edwin’s ears through the tiny holes in his knit hat. In the faintest whisper, the wind spoke in a commanding rasp that prickled up Edwin’s spine. “It’s time to give it back.”
Edwin grasped onto the arm of Charles’ coat before he could take another step forward. “Edwin?” Charles said, glancing back.
Against his better judgement, Edwin ignored Charles and took the bait. “Give what back?”
“It was never yours to keep.”
Or, sometimes you escape Hell, inexplicably turn up alive, and make a peaceful life for yourself and your best mate in a little village on the coast of Wales. It's hard to know what's more aggravating for Edwin--that Hell has come knocking again, or that all of a sudden he can't stop his heart from beating out of his chest whenever Charles catches his eye.

Summary
Edwin blinked back tears as he met Charles's eyes. "It occurs to me now that this looks suspiciously like a wedding ring," he managed unsteadily, a question buried underneath the words.

Kiss me hard before you go (summertime sadness) by Hse11z5

Summary
"So pretty and yet so sad." A voice cut through Edwin's melancholy and made him jump. "Ah, what I'd give to make you smile."
"I beg your pardon?" Edwin snapped, his shoulders turning and his eyes locking onto the speaker.
"I- I-" The boy in front of him stuttered. Boy may have an understatement, a simplification of who he was. Because he must, surely, have been the same age as Edwin. He was tall and slim wearing joggers that cut a little low and a top that cut high and exposed a centimeter of stomach that would send Edwin to the brink of madness if he stared at it for too long. He was beautiful. Not handsome or cute but the kind of beautiful that made you blink rapidly to see if it was a trick of the light. He was, also, staring at Edwin with growing horror and looked like he wished for nothing more than to disappear completely. "I did not think you could hear me."

Summary
“You are injured,” Edwin observed aloud.
“Always am, mate,” Charles huffed, then brought a hand to his ribs where a jolt of pain shot through him. Part of him hoped Edwin would just leave it at that today.
For how close they were in their positions on the plush bed, Edwin was still putting too much distance between them again. He always did, when he could suss out that Charles had fresh bruises or cuts, as though he was scared that even the lightest touch would hurt Charles more.
Even if it did, Charles knew it would be a pain that he would gladly endure as long as it was Edwin who was touching him.
“What happened?”
“Fell down the stairs,” Charles breathed out slowly, trying to keep up what little pretense he had left.
•••
Or, a modern/alive AU in which the boys are home from school for the summer and Edwin is Charles’ sanctuary when he needs an escape from being home with his father.
