Chapter 12
Sirius
We hadn't been back at Hogwarts long, but before we knew it, it was Saturday. It was really strange. Despite it being September, the beginning or autumn, it was a lovely sunny day. Hot, I bet, too. Not that I would know. Remus had decided to stay in the common room, reading one of his many books. Of course I couldn't bear to drag myself away from the sight of him reading. So peaceful, so calm. His forehead would crease at times, eyes widen, or he'd laugh. Sometimes, just sometimes, he's start to mime the words as he read them. I was sitting on by the window, watching my wolfman in the chair nearest to me, reading. I had a piece of parchment and a pencil in my hands. I wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing with them, just letting the pencil brush across the parchment, always glancing up at Remus every now and then. I hadn't glanced up at Remus in a while, but when I did both he and the book were gone. I started to look around, until I felt arms slip around my neck and a cheek press to mine.
"What you doing?" Remus asked, I could feel his smile.
"Nothing. What are you doing?" I chuckled.
"I'm watching you do nothing."
I laughed a little. He did that a lot. I would watch him read, he would watch me do nothing.
"Is that me?!" Remus asked astounded, picking up the piece of parchment.
Looks like what I was doodling turned out to be a portrait of Remus reading. I went quiet. Nobody ever saw my drawings; I didn't like anyone seeing them. But the look on Remus' face...I think I was glad he saw this one.
"Oh Merlin...it's...that's...bloody hell you're fantastic!" Remus breathed.
A small smile broke across my face. By that, I guess he could tell no one ever saw them.
"If you have others, you need to show me...but that can wait till later." Remus told me.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Come on, it's a lovely day. And I know you're itching to get outside."
"You know me too well."
Outside. It was so nice. It was warm out, with a cool gentle breeze. Remus and I just walked aimlessly around the grounds of the castle. Not many people were around. Everyone was either at Hogsmead or inside. Though, the few people outside, mainly girls, would always take the time to stop what they were doing, play with their hair and say 'hi'. Remus looked a little annoyed. Good thing it stopped after a few minutes.
"Would you hate me, if I turned into a dog and went for a run?" I asked, after a while.
"Why would I hate you?" Remus asked smiling.
"I love you so much. You know that right?"
"Oh I know that. But only because you never fail to remind me every day."
"Good, I wouldn't want you to think I didn't."
"Ha-ha, don't worry, I would never think that. Now go on. Go for a run."
I started to run off, before pausing.
"Yes, I'll take your clothes." Remus laughed.
I turned around, walked back over to Remus, and kissed him quickly.
"You are the best." I told him, kicking off my shoes.
"I know I am." Remus replied sarcastically.
"No, you really are."
I pulled off my shirt, silencing him. I loved it when that happened, I really did. Once my jeans were off too, and I kissed Remus one more time, I started running. It wasn't long before I was feeling the grass and earth beneath my paws, the cool breeze in my fur. Being a dog...it was a lot of fun. But, it didn't compare to being human when I was with Remus. I knew Remus was following me, slowly walking. He never really ran. It was rare that he would, he ran most when he was a werewolf.
I didn't run too far. Didn't want to leave Remus too far behind. I circled back after a while, and walked with him for a while. He had my shoes hanging from two fingers on his left hand, and my jeans and shirt around his neck. I batted his right hand with my nose.
"Yes, hello. I know you're there." Remus chuckled.
He placed his hand on the top of my head.
"You are a very demanding dog, you know the right." Remus chuckled.
I barked in agreement.
"Good, I'm glad you know."
We were at the edge of the Forbidden Forest now. So we were a while away from the castle. That's when it started to rain. Oh this was too good. I was a dog, and it was raining. I started running around as the droplets landed.
"Come on we better get inside." Remus said.
I just ran further away from him...and the castle.
"Oh you suck!" Remus called after me.
This time he did run. He ran to try catch me. But as a dog, being on all fours, I was faster. I found this very amusing. I kept barking, since I couldn't laugh.
"Oh, you wanna play it that way, huh? Wanna act like a dog? Fine, have it your way then." Remus grinned slyly.
I stopped, lowering the top half of my body. Remus pulled his wand out of his pocket, and said something. He was so quiet I couldn't hear him. But then I knew. I knew, because a collar was around my neck and a leash attached to it. The leash was in his right hand, wand back in his pocket. I growled slightly.
"Hey, you were the one that insisted on playing games." Remus chuckled.
He pulled me towards castle. Damn it.
We walked through the empty halls of the school, both of us leaving a trail of water behind us. The only things I could hear were the soft sound of Remus' trainers hitting the floor, and my claws against the floor.
"Go in here." Remus told my, opening a door to a room and chucking my shoes and clothes inside.
I walked in after them, the door closing behind me. I switched back to the normal me, shook the water from my hair, and pulled my clothes and shoes on. I opened the door to walk back out, but Remus pushed me back inside running in after me. He closed the door, and muttered something pointing his wand at the lock.
"What the hell?" I asked.
"Filch." Remus replied. "It would look weird if you were walking out of here."
"Where is here anyway?"
"Supply closet."
Looking around I saw parchment, quills and other stuff.
"Supply closet. Ok." I nodded. "Well, Filch has probably left now, let's go."
"Yeah, about that. I only remembered the spell to lock it." Remus replied.
"To open it isn't it just Alohomora?"
"No, not this time."
"Great. We're locked in a closet with no way out."
I sighed. Remus shook his head, leaning against the door, arms crossed.
"What?" I asked, walking towards him.
"Nothing." he smiled.
"No, come on."
"It's just...you are a very annoying dog."
I smiled slightly, placing my right hand by his head and my left by his waist. I leaned in close.
"Oh, is that so." I breathed.
"Yes, yes it is." Remus breathed back.
I slipped my left hand behind Remus, placing it in the small of his back. I pulled the lower half of his body towards mine, pressing them both together.
"You know, I can think of one thing we can do while you try to remember that spell." I said, brushing my lips against his neck, moving the two of us from side to side slowly.
"Oh, really." Remus grinned, his arms wrapping around my waist pulling me closer, pressing himself closer to me.
Remus' head rested against the door, moving his head to left. I gently bit his neck, chuckling slightly as I did.
"Yes, really." I murmured.
"Sounds like fun." Remus chuckled.
And it was.
