For the next week Remus made sure to avoid Ginny and Jolie the best he could. He had seen that look in her eyes the night they got back, she had felt something for him and he couldn't allow it. Not only was he twenty years older, but he was a danger to anyone he became involved with. Sitting in the common room Remus sipped on his Brandy and thought about the last girl he have loved, the last person he had let in. He had loved her with everything he had in him, but when she had found out what he was she left without a word. He had run into her a few years back at Diagon Alley, when he asked her why she left, she merely said: "Because your a monster. Your filth and I cannot be in love with that"
It tore him up and he wasn't about to let another person in. Someone who might reject him because he was a danger, and he wouldn't let Jolie come near him knowing that he was a danger to her.
Getting up to go to bed, Remus heard a soft knocking on his door. Opening it he tried to shut it again.
"Now, Now Remus you cannot hide from us forever." Remus sighed and stepped aside as Sirius, Ginny, Jolie and Severus came in.
"What do you guys want?"
"We want to have dinner with you for once, because it seems for the last week you have taken to avoiding us. And I don't think Jolie likes it much" Ginny said handing him the baby and kissed him on the cheek. "Now go sit with the guys while I make diner."
Remus shook his head and did what Ginny told him too.
"So Remus have you asked her out yet?" Sirius asked
"No and I'm not going to? How many times do I have to tell you, I am twenty years older then her and I are dangerous just to be around." Summoning a blanket from his room Remus set Jolie down and let her play.
"Oh, Shut it Remus. That's the same excuse I gave to Lavender. But look at us, now were getting married." Severus said with his ever-present scowl.
"Yeah, but your not longer dangerous not that Voldemort is gone. I still am and will be forever." Remus sighed and leaned back into his chair.
"The old coot here is right" Sirius said pointing at Severus "you have no excuse, and for your information, if she thought that you were dangerous she would not even let you around Jolie."
"Yes, well she hasn't seen how dangerous I can be so It really doesn't matter" Remus said "Plus there is still the fact that I am twenty years older than her."
"I am twenty years older then Lavender and it doesn't matter to her" Severus looked at Remus sternly "Just ask her out, If she likes you she'll say yes if she doesn't then to hell with it."
Just as Remus was going to say something Ginny walked into the living room and picked up Jolie. Looking around she noticed that the guy had just stopped talking as she came in "Am I missing something?"
"No" Remus said quickly.
"Yes," Sirius said. "Remus wants to ask you out but her is afraid too"
"Sirius!" Remus hissed going red in the face.
Ginny arched an eyebrow and laughed. "Well if Remus asks me then I might say yes.... Dinners ready boys."
After dinner was over and Sirius and Severus left, Ginny and Remus sat at the kitchen table talking, as Remus fed Jolie.
"So, did you mean what you said to Sirius?" Ginny looked up to see Remus smiling at her.
"You mean when I told him he has a nice arise. Well yes I did mean that" Ginny giggled "or did you mean when I said I would go out with you, but only if you asked"
"Yeah that"
"Yes, I did mean what I said" Ginny folded her napkin and picked up the plates from the table.
"Then will you go out with me this weekend?"
"Yes, I would love too" Ginny smiled at him and picked up Jolie. "I need to be going. I'll see you after class tomorrow okay?"
"Yeah, all right" Remus smiled at her and kissed her forehead. " See you tomorrow"
"Good night" Ginny slipped out of Remus rooms smiling. After Harry she just didn't date anymore and hadn't planned on meeting anyone anytime soon. But when she heard Sirius say that Remus wanted to ask her out, Ginny's heart leapt, she knew she would go out with him without a second thought.
