Prompt Twenty-Five - Scars
Hope Lupin rushed into the basement to unlock the cage, her son unconcious on the floor. She quickly scooped him up, rushing him upstairs to his father.
John began to heal the wounds, a couple of scars littering the smooth skin of their son. One day he'd be covered in them, but for now no-one would be able to tell about Remus' condition.
A pain potion was pressed to his lips when his eyes fluttered open. He drank the potion down.
"How do you feel, darling?" Hope asked.
"Sore," the six year old whispered.
Hope held back the tears. "Well, you were very brave last night, so name whatever you want for dinner and I'll make it."
"Can I have a bit of chocolate?" Remus asked hopefully. His mother had become more lenient in giving him chocolate since the attack.
"It's six am," Hope began, but paused at his hopeful face.
"Just a couple of squares," she said, heading to the kitchen and pulling out a chocolate bar for her son.
All her son asked for was a bit of chocolate and after everything that had happened to him, she would make sure she at least had what he wanted.
She just couldn't bring herself to say no.
Review Please :)
