As Hermione sat on Remus' bed, waiting for him to get out of the shower and come to his room, she smiled to herself. She and Remus hadn't spent much alone time together lately, but earlier that afternoon before Remus returned from his mission (he seemed to be going on more and more lately), Ginny had told her that she would cover for them tonight so they could 'catch up' with each other.
Not many people knew, but Hermione and Remus had been seeing each other for a few months now. Of the people who knew (including Mrs. Weasley), a few had thought in the beginning that they would never last. However, they couldn't be more wrong. Three months into the relationship, and they were still as happy as ever. 'There may be a bit of a difference in our ages, but we love each other all the same,' she thought.
All of a sudden, she heard the water pressure go off. Grinning inwardly, she stood right next to the door. As the doorknob turned and the door opened, her beau entered the room, hair still dripping, with only a towel wrapped low on his hips.
Silently allowing her eyes to drift down to study his finely muscled chest, chiseled with ancient scars from his gruesome past, she felt a surge of pride. This beautiful creature, this elegant, wonderful creature, was Remus. Her Remus.
Throwing herself at him, she buried her head into his bare chest, and sobbed her heart out. Feeling him gather her into his strong, yet gentle, arms, rocking her back and forth, he barely heard it when her muffled words came out against his chest, "I missed you."
Carefully settling them both down on the bed, he cuddled her up against him, crooning sweet nothings into her ear.
How long they sat there like that, they would never know. It could have been a few minutes, hours, or even a day for all they knew. The one thing they knew was that they never wanted it to end.
