Finding Love
Chapter 2
Remus slowly opened his eyes and yawned feeling refreshed. He examined his surroundings and realised he was still in the Hospital Wing.
"Morning sleepy head," Anna said optimistically as she walked over to him. He examined her beautiful figure and memorized every curve her body had. Today she wore a deep green dress with a navy blue shawl draped around her shoulders. She walked up before him and handed him a clean shirt.
"I worked on some of your wounds while you slept." She looked down at her choice of clothing. "Please excuse my outfit. I know it's not very professional." He nodded courteously as he slipped the clean shirt on. To be perfectly and completely honest, he thought she was exceptionally beautiful the outfit.
He stood up and slipped his hands in his pockets.
"Might you have the time?" he asked her in a gentle voice. She nodded to him and answered,
"Yes, I believe it's about 8:35, in other words, breakfast time." She smiled warmly at him. He nodded and held out his hand to her.
"Thank you, Ms. Lavender," he thanked politely. She took it and smiled. Her hands were soft and warm to the touch. He savoured this moment, no matter how small it was.
"You're very welcome Mr. Lupin." He nodded once more before exiting the Hospital Wing.

Remus entered through the great oak doors of the Great Hall and took his seat beside Severus who was busy scowling at all of the students. He took a few slices of toast and a fried egg. He finished quickly and rested his head on the table feeling refreshed.
Harry Potter and his friends made their way up to Remus.
"Madam Lavender is hot. What did you do with her Professor Lupin?" Ron Weasley said immediately. Remus looked up, but Snape spoke first.
"I suggest you leave, Weasley, before your House starts with negative points," Severus snarled at the younger ones. Remus smiled warmly.
"I only spent the night in the Hospital Wing after a check up Mr Weasley. It was nothing really special." Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Sorry about him Professors," she said politely. Harry chuckled and smiled.
"Just saying hi Professor," he said happily. Remus nodded and grinned politely at them. The doors opened and Remus looked up to the sight of Anna walking down the isle to Albus. He smiled dumbly and watched her. He watched the way her hips swayed with each stride.
"Professor...? Professor... PROFESSOR!"
"Huh?" Remus said coming back to reality. Harry, Ron and Hermione all were smirking evilly at him. "Uh... best be getting back to your table." He beamed at them as he shooed them away. They eyed him suspiciously before they left. Filius chuckled merrily and smiled at Severus who was smirking.
"That woman has caught your eye, eh?" Severus said in a silky voice. Remus smiled and took a small sip of the pumpkin juice in the goblet before him.
"No, of course not," he lied. He watched her closely before a sharp pain in his stomach interrupted his thoughts. He clutched his stomach and moaned in pain.
"Remus?" Severus and Filius asked concernedly. He put a hand over his mouth and his eyes widened before snapping shut. He managed to hear Filius call Anna over and in only a few moments felt soft feminine hands gently massaging his shoulders.
"Shh... it's only a side affect of the medication I used on you last night," Anna's soothing voice said calmly. He felt as though he was to regurgitate, but Anna's voice eased his mind. What was this affect she had on him? Was Severus right? Had she 'caught his eye'?
The pain was now subsiding and he let go of his stomach, removed his hand from his mouth and opened his eyes to the sight of Anna's smiling face. She patted his cheek and looked at him with her beautiful emerald eyes.
"I forgot to tell you of the affects. Sorry. That wasn't too professional either," she looked at him apologetically. He smiled at her and nodded.
"I should have asked. But you are forgiven." He straightened up and took his goblet in his hand. "Thank you." She smiled brightly and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you and you're welcome!" She clung to him tightly as his took in her scent. She smelled of fresh fruits and had a warming embrace. He smiled at her as she pulled away.
"I must be returning to the Hospital Wing. Thank you again Mr Lupin. I know I don't look or act too professional... but thank you for seeing past that and forgiving my mistakes." She smiled and exited the Great Hall. Boy this was going to be a strange year.
