Beginning A/N: I wanted to see if I could write one of these, I'm rather fond of Remus/Hermione ships, but never truly had the courage to write one, so here goes. I accept constructive criticism and will not blink twice at it if you choose not to use proper spelling in grammar in all your illiterate glory. Reviews will be most appreciated.

"Remus, Remus dear," called a soft voice. "Coming mum!" shouted a much louder voice.
4 year old Remus Lupin bound down the stairs in his favourite green shorts and matching shirt and his lucky orange cap. He had sandy brown hair and dark brown eyes. Right now he had a goofy grin on his face , petting a chameleon lizard.
"Mum look what I found," Remus said, showing her the giant lizard on his arm.
His mother had sandy brown hair and blue eyes. She had a nice figure and appeared much younger than she actually was. She like her son, had a love for nature.
"Oh Remus that's lovely. Did you find that chameleon all by yourself?" she asked, admiring the lizard that was climbing up his back.
"Uh huh!" he said nodding and smiling. "He was in my lucky hat," he said.
"That's nice, I have to prepare dinner okay? Go and play with daddy," she said.
His face slightly fell. His father didn't like him very much and he showed it when his mum wasn't around. His mother had almost died determined to giving Remus birth. He walked into the living room where his father was drinking a bottle of wine.
"Dad?" Remus said.
The man looked at him staring at him as if he was something slimy.
"What the hell do you want?" He asked gruffly.
Remus said nothing, staring pitifully at his drunk father.
"Never mind, I just wanted to play," Remus said.
"You play to much you little rat," he said harshly.
Remus felt an argument coming, the colour rising into his face.
"I'm sorry for bothering you, sir," Remus said, walking away.
"Don't walk away from me you little creep," Mr. Lupin said grabbing Remus by the collar or his shirt.
"Let go of me!" Remus cried, kicking trying to get free.
"shut up you unthankful ingrate, you accident, I would have been much happier if you weren't born," The man said, throwing him against the wall, the chameleon dragon scattering away and out of the house.
Remus got up and ran out of the door and into the forest, crying.
'Why did I even try to talk with him?'
said a voice in his head.'It would make mum happy if she saw us laughing together, even if we were laughing at each other,'
reasoned another voice.'Yeah, but he's so mean, I didn't do anything and he's all mad at me,'
the first voice countered.'Onto more important stuff, where am I?'
Remus wondered aloud.It was dusk and he had about an hour before the sun went down.
"Maybe I should go home," Remus said.
He looked around.
'Which way is home?' he thought to himself.
He chose a random direction and began to walk.
It was dark soon and the moon was full for the last of it's three days. The moon always made Remus uneasy for some reason so he quickened his pace. He heard rustling not far behind him. He continued walking even quicker, nearly running. When his pace quickened, so did the rustling behind him.
'don't look, don't look, don't look, whatever you do don't look,' he repeated in his head.
Being the child he is he turned around. A giant wolf with white fur and silver eyes was behind him, teeth gleaming in the moonlight. Remus broke off at a run crying for his mum.
He saw the muggle town close to his home in the view and ran faster.
'Just a little faster, a little bit faster… I'm almost there…' he thought.
He felt the wolf claw at his shoulder, leaving deep scratches in it. He was bleeding terribly, soaking his ripped shirt in blood.
"Mum! HELP!" he shouted.
"Mr Lupin! Professor wake up!" Harry said shaking him roughly.
Remus opened his eyes. He blinked several times before focusing on Harry.
"Eh? What happened?" he asked.
"You had a nightmare you were… err… screaming and woke us up," Harry said, pointing to the curious trio behind him.
Ginny and Hermione were standing near Harry, Ginny in a flowery nightgown and Hermione in a pair of summer pyjamas, while Sirius stood in the background clad in black silk boxers.
"Sorry I woke you," Remus said in an apologetic tone.
"It's fine, we should be awake by now any way. You know what they say, early to fall and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy , and wise," Ginny said in a perky tone.
"Well call me sick, poor, and stupid, I'm going back to sleep," Hermione said grumpily trudging back to her room.
"It's already 9am," Harry said, watching Hermione walk out the door.
"Well come on then Moony, I'll go fix breakfast," Sirius said.
They cringed slightly. Whenever Sirius cooked it was salty, greasy, and spicy, and sometimes, fried.
"Oh don't give me that, I was thinking of putting that fruit in the ice box to use," Sirius said.
They let out a breath of relief.
"Were you planning to make a fruit salad?" Ginny asked.
"You'll see," Sirius said mysteriously.
Hermione walked into the kitchen two hours later with Ron right behind her. She was rubbing her forehead as she hit the bed post when she woke up and a headache was coming.
"Look what rose from the dead!" Ginny said in that annoying perky tone.
"Be quiet, or I'll strangle you to death," Hermione said.
"Good morning sunshine," Sirius muttered under his breath.
"What's for breakfast?" Hermione asked.
"Cinnamon doughnuts stuffed with assorted fruits, unglazed, and your choice of tea, coffee, or orange juice," Ron said sniffing the air.
Hermione took a plate and randomly grabbed two doughnuts. She then reached for the highest shelf and grabbed a small glass bottle full of a clear brown liquid.
"Wassat?" Ron asked, already shoving a doughnut in his mouth.
"Well it says 'Remus Lupin's wolfs bane potion' but I know for a fact that this is Remus Lupin's special 12 year old wolf bane potion…" Hermione trailed off, mixing it with a cup of coffee.
"Those don't mix Hermione," Remus said knowingly.
(A/N): Please review, this may be kind of clichéd cause I get the damn writing block more often than anyone, but I'll update about every week. Oh and the boxers… couldn't resist! Nothing but silk for Sirius, lol.
