Moonlight
A/N This is just a oneshot to say I haven't forgotten you guys and to let you know I am still writing. I should be updating Amarantine soon so it will be updated within the week.
The air was cool and damp and filled with the sounds and smells of spring at night. The moon hung low and silver in the sky and the woman stood proudly in the center of the clearing, watching as the wolf came slowly toward her. His fur was a light golden color and his muzzle was lifted as he caught her scent on the cool night breeze.
Hermione stood, her wand in hand, staring in wonder at the massive creature and smiling to herself. The ward that she had drawn around herself should keep the wolf from hurting her. It was a new spell she had created after many lonely full moons lying in bed and hating that Remus had to spend them alone. Now she stood with her feet spread hip width apart and waited for the wolf to draw near.
A few seconds later the wolf was right in front of her, his head cradled in her two shaking hands. He hadn't attacked her and as she stroked his soft fur she sighed with relief. She could finally be with him in the time he needed her most and her heart sang for joy.
"Well Remus Lupin, I know you're in there for you did take the potion tonight," she said. "I am finally ready to be with you. What would you like to do now?"
The wolf raised his head and sniffed, then loped off in the direction of the thick woods surrounding the house. Hermione ran after him as fast as she could and soon saw him bringing down an old sick deer. He ate his fill and then tore off a bloody chunk of meat and dropped it in front of her. Hermione gingerly picked it up and the wolf watched as she pretended to eat it.
He licked her hand and took the meat from it then let out a long drawn out howl. Moony was happier than he had been in so long. Yes he did have Hermione for a wife and they were happy together but this was something she had never been able to share with him. She had never been able to change into an animal, one thing she forever resented because she was good at almost everything else. He stood up on his hind paws and licked her face before running off to play by himself.
"I'll see you back at the house Moony," she shouted after him. "Bye then you'll be back to my old Remus again."
Hermione walked back to the house and changed into her night clothes. She drifted off to sleep to the sound of her husband barking and howling in the woods outside. The night had been a success in more ways than one and when she woke up the next morning it was to feel Remus's soft lips resting on hers.
"You were with me last night," he murmured. "Thank you love. I did not expect that."
"I'm just glad I could do something to make your life better," she said around a yawn.
"Do you think you will sell your new spell?" he asked.
"Yes, but not to just anyone," she said.
"Good," he said. "I'm tired. Let's sleep some more."
A/N Verry fluffy I know but I like fluff It seems. I've already got ideas for Amarantine and I can't wait to write them down. Chapter 6 is coming soon. May the moon watch over you all.
