The ship: wolfstar The prompt: modern day au, muggle au. Remus needs to buy a present for ?? (Doesn’t matter) so he goes to the Lush. Sirius works there and is ready to give him a hand massage. This is how they meet. Ly đŸ’•đŸ’•

hellooooo dear ! i shall obey your commands and offer you some lushy wolfstarish fluff rn !

  • remus lupin was walking through the crowd of the mall, cursing the saturday afternoons for dragging so much people in such a small place
  • he usually avoided these kind of places, but he had, of course, completely forgotten about his colleague’s birthday the next day, and he needed some nice last minute gift
  • hopefully he remembered the nice shop he went last time a situation like this happened, and he hoped to be done soon
  • he finally arrived in front of said shop, who had a discreet sign announcing “Lush”
  • he opened the door and was immediatly overwhelmed by a hundred of different smells
  • the shop was slightly less crowded than the outside, but still far too much for his liking
  • as he tried to make his way to a small display of what looked like hair products, someone bounced in front of him and shouted “welcome to lush ! anything i can help you with ?”
  • and remus froze
  • the person in front of him was absolutely beautiful
  • he was very small, but their energy made them look twice taller. he seemed to be asian, long black hair tied in a pretty braid, grey eyes full of sparkles
  • he felt a bit stupid, standing here and just staring, but he didn’t feel like he could move
  • “can i show you our soaps ? i have a few ones that you would adore ! come with me !”
  • before remus could tell him he wasn’t looking for anything for him, he was dragged by the Pretty Seller to another display
  • he immediatly grabbed a yellowish soap and explained “so this one is called bohemian, it scents like lemon and it’s supposed to stimulate your creative skills.”
  • he winked and took remus’s hand. before he could react – not that he would have been able to anyway – the Pretty Seller was applying the soap on his hand and softly massaging his palm with his thumb. remus shivered, not used to this kind of human contact
  • the Pretty Boy looked at him and smiled adorably, still massaging him. he hesitated for two seconds before to ask :
  • “er, i’m sorry but can i ask you what your pronouns are ? it’s just, i wasn’t sure and i didn’t want to assume anything, so…”
  • he blushed, becoming cuter and cuter every second. remus was sure he looked like a perfect idiot.
  • “oh don’t worry, i’ll rather you ask than you use the wrong ones. it’s he/him. you ?”
  • “well i usually use he/him at work for pratical reason, but since you asked, i rather they/them.”
  • remus nodded, still distracted by the soft massage who he was sure wasn’t meant to last that long. suddenly Pretty Seller seemed to see something behind remus, and hide behind an aisle.
  • “er, are you alright ?” remus asked
  • “yeah, my manager is here and technically i’m not supposed to be helping the client today, but i couldn’t just let a pretty boy like you go away, could i ?”
  • they winked at remus, who felt his cheeks warmening. he wasn’t really used to having the attention of sexy sellers.
  • “i’m sirius by the way, you ?”
  • “remus.” he paused for a moment, before to remember his initial motive. “oh my god, i completely forgot, i’m supposed to be here to buy a birthday gift for someone ! she’s a colleague and pretty much the only one i can stand, so i need something really nice.”
  • “of course ! what’s her name ?”
  • “lily”
  • sirius stopped in his move to get another soap, and asked “i mean, it’s probably just a coincidence, but is she lily evans ?”
  • remus frowned. “yes, yes she is. do you know her ?”
  • “if i know her ?” they exclamed “she’s my best friend’s girlfriend ! are you invited to her birthday party tomorrow ?”
  • astonished, remus nodded with wide eyes. in the hugeness of london, he managed to come across his colleague’s friend ?
  • “amazing !” sirius shouted. “it means i’ll definitely be able to help you to find the perfect present !”
  • and remus was dragged through the shop again, this time grinning. he didn’t know anything about the cute person holding his still full of soap hand, but he was sure it was the beginning of something good.
