~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Chapter 9 -
Hermione was up all night going though books in Wizarding law enforcement. Overnight the news about Dumbledore and Remus being arrested had traveled around the school. They even knew about Remus and Hermione being married. The next morning Hermione went to breakfast. The Slytherins suddenly went quiet as she walked by. Once she passed the started laughing and making comments.
"Now we know why your grades are so good!" said Pansy Parkinson.
"Wow thanks for the idea of how to DO better in Charms!" Millicent Bullstruble said.
Hermione ignored the comments and sat down next to Ginny.
"How is everything?" Ginny asked.
"Terrible." Hermione said.
"Well if it makes you feel better Severus went down to the ministry first thing this morning. To the best of my knowledge he is still there."
"Hey Mrs. Lupin!" yelled another voice from the Slytherin table.
"I can't handle this." Hermione said.
"It will be fine." Ginny said.
"Hermione are the rumors true?" Pavariti Patel asked.
"Yeah are you really married to Professor Lupin?" Lavender Brown asked.
"Yes." Hermione said.
"Oh my gosh!" screeched Pavariti.
"You are so lucky." Lavender said.
"To be married to such a hottie." Pavariti said.
"Thanks I think." Hermione said.
Pavariti and Lavender walked away to go talk to some giggly girls at the Ravenclaw table. Tyren now walked over to Hermione.
"Wow Hermione when you said you fancied Professor Lupin you really meant it." Tyren said.
"Ahh I can't take this!" Hermione screamed as she left the great hall in tears.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Please Hermione's parents are dead and so Remus can be like an official guardian to her." Severus said.
"That is true. Remus has been taking a big responsibility in taking care of Miss. Granger. He makes sure she finishes all her school work and has been helping her and some friends study for N.E.W.Ts." Professor Dumbledore said.
"Your son is a good friend of Hermione as well as your charming daughter and they will see her depressed for quite awhile." Severus said.
"I understand, but it is the law for a grown man to have any type of relationship with a minor." Arthur said.
"Remus is in love with Hermione and will do anything in his power to take care of her." Dumbledore said.
"I can see that but, " Arthur began to argue.
"But nothing you must let Remus out. How would your wife feel if you were arrested? You know that she would be hysterical and in pain. That is how Hermione feels." Severus said.
"I will have to talk with the other senior members of the ministry."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hermione went into her and Remus' bedroom and lied on the bed. She held his pillow and inhaled his sent. She was really in loved the way he smelled. She fell asleep holding his pillow.
A hand ran over her forehead. Tender lips touched hers. "Wake up Hermione." Said a calm voice that Hermione knew only too well.
She opened her eyes to see Remus standing in front of her. "Oh Remus!" she screamed as she threw her arms around him.
Remus gave her a kiss and held her. "You know they could not hold me long."
"How'd you get out?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hermione awoke in a cold sweat. It had all been a dream. Remus was not back. She was not being held in his arms again. It had all been a small foolish dream. Hermione was still a bit tired, but she could not have another dream about Remus coming back because it was too much for her. Hermione went into a fresh batch of tears.
"Don't cry Hermione."
Hermione seen Ron and Harry sitting at the end of her bed with a bag.
"What's in the bag?"
"It's a gift for you." Ron said.
"Thanks." Hermione said as she whipped her tears.
She opened the bag to find a photo album. It was scarlet and gold. On front it read: 'Hermione J-A Granger-Lupin, days at Hogwarts.' She smiled and looked at the bottom with more wording. 'From your best friends Harry J.P and Ron D.W.'
Opening the book she seen a picture from their first year. It was the day that they had won the house-cup. There was one from Harry's first Quidditch game. The second year pictures were much better. Hermione could tell that some where ones that Colin took. There were pictures up until one page that brought Hermione to tears. It was Hermione's wedding day. Hermione cried and smiled. There was a page saved for their graduation day at the end of the book.
"Thank you guys so much." Hermione said.
"You are always welcome with being such a good friends to us." Harry said.
"Ginny and I are planning to Floo dad and beg him to let Lupin come back." Ron said.
"Thank you so much." Cried Hermione as she got up and flung her arms around Ron.
"Ummm -er- your umm welcome." Ron stuttered.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Dad it's Ginny." Ginny called into the fireplace. Then her dad Arthur Weasley appeared in the fireplace.
"Yes Ginny." Arthur said.
"Well why did you have Remus, I mean Professor Lupin arrested for marrying Hermione?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah dad why?" Ron asked.
"It's against the law." Arthur simply said.
"Hello dad if you haven't noticed you are the minister of magic." Ron said.
"Yeah you can change the laws." Ginny said and in the back of her mind thinking about her and Severus' relationship.
"I'll try. That is all I can tell you for now." Arthur said.
"You are the best dad in the world. If I could I'd hug you." Ginny said.
"Yeah bye dad." Ron said.
"Bye study hard." Arthur said as he left the fireplance.
"And if not I know some great tricks for the ministry I can get for Fred and George." Ginny said evilly.
"Ginny!"
"Hey it's the truth."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hermione sat in complete depression as the day continued. She did leave her room and walk down to the lake. She watched the giant squid swim around. How she missed Remus was all she could think of. The wind blew a bit softly. Then she pulled her wireless out of her pocket and listened to the Wizarding Wireless Network (WWN). She listened to the song. It was a song by Stacie Orrico an American witch.
I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
And why can't I let go
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more
I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half way out the door
Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more
Than waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed.....
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
To life..
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more to life....life..
ohh...more to life....theres gotta be more to life...
ohh...more to life....theres gotta be more to life...ohhh
Hermione smiled as the song finished. A thought came to her mind that there was more to life. She could not just sit around and cry about Remus being arrested. She had to be patient and wait carefully. She knew that crying was not always going to stop the pain.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Remus sat in a cell in Azkaban. It was cold and all he could think of was the day he was bitten by a werewolf. That memory floated around and around for hours as he just sat. The dementors would just cross his cell every now and then to bring him food or something.
"hem - hem." Remus looked up to see Arthur Weasley.
"Minister." Remus said.
"I'm letting you out." Arthur said as he opened the cell for Remus to get out.
"Really?"
"Really. Give a hug to Hermione for me and tell her I'm very sorry. I've changed the law and a 17 year old is now allowed to date or marry anyone over 20."
"Thank you so much." Remus said as he shock Arthur's hand before walking down to fine Professor Dumbledore waiting for him.
"Ready to go Remus?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes sir." Remus said as they apparted away.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hermione had sat alone re-reading the book Remus had bought her. She had already fell in love with the book and was now even more in love with it. Well she did love Hogwarts: A History a little more.
"Guess who's back?" Remus said as he walked though the door.
"Remus!" screamed Hermione as she jumped up and threw herself in his arms.
"He actually let me out. Can you believe that?" Remus said.
"This is so wonderful. I've missed you so much."
"I've missed you." Remus said as he gave Hermione a long passionate kiss. "He also changed the law. A 17 year old is now allowed to date a person over 20."
"Ginny will really love that next year."
"She very much will."
Remus swept Hermione off her feet into their bedroom.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Nay: That was beautiful. [cries] See people Arthur Weasley is not an old fart.
Arthur: I'm not at all.
Sirius: I really liked that.
Remus: I hated it!!!
Harry: Why?
Remus: Because the next chapter is the last chapter.
Nay: It's fine because there is a sequel.

Ginny: Aww is it cute?

Nay: OK. Moony I need the Review rules.
Remus: Ok ok. Don't talk about Nay[werewolfzangel]. Shut up about her grammar. And no Flaming
