Tuesday 10th of July 1995

He held the beautiful witch tightly to him as she still slept peacefully in his arms, in their bed, in his home. He'd point blank refused to have their marriage night in another man's home, and took Hermione back to his place where they'd been since. It surprised and pleased him to discover she was a virgin, and that he'll be the only Wizard who touches her perfect body.

His beautiful wife surprised him in every way, and he felt rather reluctant to let her go back to Number 12. Speaking of said witch, he could feel her start to wake and kissed her forehead, nose and lips as he turned her over, so she's on her back and he is fully on top of her, she moaned as he pressed his hips into hers.

"Do I have to go back?" She whispered her arms around his neck as he kissed his way down her neck.

"Unfortunately, but I'll try to be at Number 12 as often as possible and I'll be at Hogwarts more frequently being one of the dozen selected Aurors to guard Hogwarts. I'm pretty sure we will be able to steal a few moments alone," he told his wife kissing her lips, before sliding down to kiss and lick his way down the rest of her body.

He's turned Hermione Shacklebolt into a sex kitten and he loves it and loves her newly found confidence as she lets the feelings take over her body, and shuts everything else out, it is just them in these moments of pure bliss.

He loved the way his name sounded from her lips, as she came hard as he took everything his wife gave him. Placing his hands on either side of her head, she lifted one leg up to rest over his shoulder as he enters her tight core, and they both moan at the feeling of being one. He leaned down to capture her lips as he fucked her hard wanting his wife to feel every inch of him when she has to go back and be around them, something he found he did not like one bit. Yes, he's an overprotective wizard when it comes to his family because he doesn't have any of his immediate family left being an only child himself.

He has a few cousins but they aren't a close family unit, since his parents passed and then his aunt, they don't keep in contact. Now he has his wife, and they'll eventually have children of their own. He hopes to have a big family with her, and neither of them will ever feel alone again. Her walls fluttered around him, holding him hostage a few times loving the feeling and then they both came hard and his lips captured hers as he collapsed on top of her.

Hermione's leg slid down his arm as his hips slowly rocked into her, both of them enjoying the afterglow and after one more thrust, his seed finished filling her. She wrapped both her legs around him and dug her heels into his ass cheeks holding him in place as he softened inside her, they snogged and hands roamed until it was time for them to reluctantly get up. They showered, washed and dressed. His wife did her hair with some muggle curling thing and charmed them into place, as he brought coffee upstairs, he pulled out the necklace from his pocket after she kissed him in thanks, for bringing her coffee and placed it around her neck, he kissed her cheek.

"It's got our initials on the back of the wings, and I charmed the butterfly so it can't come off, I also forgot to tell you that I will know if you are in danger or hurt because I've charmed our wedding rings, there are somethings Dumbledore doesn't need to know! I respect the man but I do find him rather annoying at times."

"It is beautiful, butterflies are one of my favourite animals second to cats, thank you for letting me bring Crooks as well, he's a pain in the arse but he's my familiar, and I love him. He's helped me through so much since starting Hogwarts. My parents weren't too pleased when I spotted him at the Apothecary shop, a tiny ball of orange fluff. He doesn't like Ron or Harry very much, so I'm surprised he's taken to you as well as he has!" She kissed him.

"I will take that as a good sign, animals have good instincts when it comes to judging people. I'm surprised he doesn't like the Potter boy or Weasley considering they are your friends." He frowned as he thought this. His wife stood up and turned the curling iron off, and pulled his face down to hers, for a kiss, his arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her into him.

"If only we didn't have to leave, I'll be escorting you to Number 12 through the floo, where Sirius will be waiting for you and then I will have to go to the Ministry most of the day." He told his wife, and she nodded.

"When will you be back at Number 12? I'm glad I have my own room and won't have to share with anyone:" He raised an eyebrow and smirked, plans already forming in his head, now he's had her he can't go days, weeks with not being with his wife.

"Let's go find your feline friend and get going or else we will never leave," he kissed her one last time.

"I'm going to miss this place, it's so nice and quiet compared to London."

"Whenever you can escape you may come through the floo. I'm nearly always here when I'm not at the ministry or Number 12 or if you find things become too much, this is your home as well now, and I'll feel when you are here! I will ask Dumbledore if you can be out of Hogwarts for your birthday, I want to take us away for the weekend, as our honeymoon too." She smiled and kissed his cheek, as they walked hand in hand to his office.

"I'd like that, as much as I love the Weasleys and Harry it can get a bit overwhelming sometimes, being an only child. Harry loves it because he's now getting the attention he's always craved whereas I've always been the opposite! When you mentioned about cats and good instincts about people, I have a few theories as to why Crooks doesn't like them... but don't like to think along those lines as I prefer to think on the positives."

"What are your theories love?" He asked her.

"We become friends after I saved their arses and then they saw how good at homework and studying I am compared to them, and I somehow get stuck with their work on top of my own, it's become a bad habit I can't seem to break no matter how much I try. I think Crooks sense how stressed I am and doesn't like it! He also never liked Ron's pet rat Scabbers who turned out to be Peter Pettigrew. The one who actually outed Harry's parents, not Sirius... Ron's a bit bitter still and won't admit that Crooks was right to chase the rat off all the time. I feel like it was his own way of protecting us."

"I agree with your theories, and maybe you could try not doing their homework by being elsewhere?" He suggested, "like maybe in the girl's dormitory or stay a little later in the library and see what happens?"

"I might try that when we get back to Hogwarts. I'm glad you'll be there as well, sometimes." They shared a kiss and Hermione called for Crookshanks who was thankfully asleep on Kingsley's chair so Hermione went over to scoop him up in her arms, shifting him to the right, as she took hold of her husband's hand.

Kingsley grabbed some floo powder as he said the spell for floo fire, to lit the fireplace up. With one last kiss, he then said: "Sirius Black - Number 12 Grimmauld Place, London." Kingsley squeezed her hand surprised to hear the Weasley already at Number 12, and let go.

They'd placed the Disillusionment Charm on their rings the night before. Crooks jumped out of her arms quickly and scurried off, then came running back in as if he wasn't just with them. Kingsley shot a warning look at a smirking Sirius who quickly schooled his face. She'd left some things at their home so she had some bits there.

Hermione felt dizzy as her vision is blurred by red hair and she hugged her friend back, closing her eyes from all the redheads in the room.

"Thank fuck your here Hermione, Ronald and the twins are already driving me nuts and the summer has only just started. Where have you been? Who did you come through the floo with?" Ginny bombarded her with questions.

"I'm not that bad, let the girl breathe sis!" Ron said coming over smiling, slinging his arm around his site's shoulders.

"Eww you stink, get away from me?" Ginny said her nose scrunching up in disgust and Ron glared at her.

"That is Mr Shaklebolt, I needed to go back home to collect the rest of my things, and Dumbledore asked if he was free to escort me, and thankfully he was. I've been here since the first of July."

"No, I must decline as I am about to start my shift at the Ministry. I'll be around for meetings." With that Hermione watched her husband leave through the floo, and felt a little lost without his presence close to her.

"You need to stop looking at the fireplace Hermione," Sirius said coming up behind her and placing an arm around her shoulder. She turned her head towards him.

"I did not realise I would miss him this much..." she whispered. Sirius pulled her in a bit closer!

"It is natural, now pull yourself together and sit down with the rest of them, a couple of them are looking at you." She closes her eyes and counts to ten, opens them and joins the others, when asked if she was okay, she just said she got lost within her own thoughts.

Ron asks why she stood with Sirius like that and she hexed him, causing the twins to laugh.
