"You're late."

"You're stunning."

Hermione stared at him, looking at him with a blank mask that didn't give away any secrets before he saw the quirk of her lips and he knew that he'd be okay.
"You're forgiven," she replied, confirming his thoughts. Which surprised him. He was late for their date when he'd promised he'd be on time. "Harry owled me earlier about maintenance on the floo system and letting me know about a possible, and most likely, delay."

"I would've told you but I didn't find out until I was at work and then-"

"And then you were in too deep with some amazing, cursed artifact that grabbed your attention for the next six hours, am I right?" He rolled his eyes and opened his arms, offering a hug, which she accepted immediately, sauntering over to him. "You're forgiven but you will be punished."

He shivered at her tone and she smirked but didn't say anything, allowing her arms to twine around his neck whilst his wrapped around her waist and held her close to him.

"I don't deserve you," he breathed. "How could I get so lucky to have you?"

"I consider myself pretty lucky."

"You could've had anyone and yet you chose me." She stared at up at him, a small crease on her forehead from her frown. He didn't like it and so he peppered the skin with light kisses until it disappeared.

"I wanted you. Why wouldn't I have chosen you?"

"I'm not exactly the sparkling, glamorous wizard that others are nowadays. I'm scarred."

"And I find it highly offensive that you think I'm shallow enough to scare about a few scars that make you, you." She tutted and pressed a kiss to his collarbone. "I love you, I love the animalistic side of you and I love the wild sex that comes with the full moon. What more could I want?"

He stared at her, silent and she smiled prettily up at him.

"I love you, my beauty," he spoke finally.

"I love you too, my beast."
