Disclaimer: Cara's my little baby but not Harry unfortunately, or any other
of the HP characters.
Thanks to:
Arigazi: Lol glad you like my sense of humour, someone's got to (grin). Aye I feel the best stories are the ones where although they manage to fit the new character or sexual orientation in but the character maintains their personalities so I've tried REALLY hard to do this, even to go as far as having a copy of the five cannon books beside me lol. Cara's past, I do want to write more especially about his father Janus (Named after the two- faced Roman god) who abandoned him so that I can show how much of a better father Remus is to the boy. As for your questions, next full moon: Soon lol, What month: around the 7th of October so it's Autumn but it's sunny, like it was last year, OH MY GOD was that hot!
Mlilacorbett: Aw well I'm glad you like it, Cara's getting nice and cosy in the wizarding world, almost a shame JK will never use him lol. Well I'm glad you guys check everyday as I try to get at least one up everyday (whether it be late or not) and you've got to love that horny Harry man lol! Aye I felt that the last chapter should try to swing back to the situation at hand.
Sykostalker27: LMAO save the Frosties! Aye poor Remus indeed but I think he's happy enough looking after Harry, take his appearance at the end of book five for example. Sirius is gone but he still manages to come down and see Harry home safely with a gentle smile.

Chapter 14 – Watching
"We still have to get some groceries." Cara said as he scanned the scribbled list that Hermione had handed him before she, Harry and Tonks had left for work.
"Well then this looks promising." Remus replied as he manoeuvred them both towards a muggle supermarket called 'Tesco's'. The two werewolves quickly grabbed a basket and made their way around the store.
"Coffee!" The older man said quickly as he made a grab for a jar of the drink. Grinning he placed it into the basket as Cara laughed beside him.
"Why do I feel that's going to be a mistake with Harry and Tonks in the same house." He said as he turned over a box of tea bags to read the back before chucking it into the basket.
"Could be a good past time if you think about it." The tawny-haired man winked as Cara shook his head laughing. They continued their shopping but as they began to scan the biscuits Remus suddenly asked a random question.
"What do you think of marriage Cara?" He said as he held a packet of McVitie's in one hand and a packet of Mr Kipling's Chocolate chip cookies in the other as he tried to determine which was better.
The blonde blanched a little as a light blush jumped to his cheeks.
"Oh I-I don't know." He stammered as he found the shelves suddenly very interesting.
"Liar." A twinkle shone a little in the older man's deep gold eyes as he looked over at the younger man. The blonde simply blushed further.
"You haven't been speaking to Hermione by any chance?" He asked suspiciously and the other man laughed.
"Damn, busted." He chuckled as he patted Cara's shoulder.
"You two are terrible, conspiring against me indeed." They both laughed lightly as they moved down the aisle.
"We're just curious is all. I mean, you and Harry have never had a major argument you've been together three years and you're living together...it's practically perfect."
"Don't jinx us and it's not entirely perfect...Werewolves can't marry, you know that."
Remus regarded the solemn man with a reassuring smile.
"That's actually in the process of being rectified." Cara's head snapped up to look the grinning man in the face.
"What?" He whispered out. He didn't want to get his hopes up, not yet...
"Please, you think Hermione would work for the Magickal creatures regulations rights and NOT go after the big project of improving Werewolf rights."
The blonde simple gaped at the older man, his heart thundering against his chest. Was Hermione doing this for him? Was she doing it because it was just her job...did it matter? No way.
He felt his eyes getting moist as he smiled tremendously.
"I can marry Harry?" He asked, his voice cracking a little as the emotion became a little much. Remus felt a little teary himself at the reaction as he grinned again.
"She's one form away from getting Werewolf marital rights. Apparently it will consist of something along the lines of if the partner accepts then the Ministry can't interfere, they can only do so if the werewolf has a bad track history or the marriage is forced."
The younger werewolf could feel his hands trembling slightly as he ran them through his hair. Remus smiled slightly as he placed his hands on the blonde's shoulders.
"Life is for the taking Cara, so take it."

Harry closed the door behind him as he left the Commander's office. He 'd informed Dagda of the Order's situation and about the new Death Eater's. Dagda had been very understanding as he gave Tiphareth permission to bring in the group along with the Order's help.
He slouched into his chair as he returned to his cubicle with a sigh and rested his hands to cup the back of his neck.
He looked around his walls briefly until his gaze settled on the photo of him and Cara. He smiled gently as he leant forward to run a finger down the photo Cara's face causing the image to blush slightly.
He pulled it off the wall then leant back to look at the picture in his hands. That was until he heard a low whistle behind him.
"Now that is a gorgeous guy." Spinning quickly the animagi came face to face with a grinning Kiki.
"Shame he's gay really...well not for you, but for me it is a major bummer." She winked at him as she settled herself onto his desk. Not two minutes later Clay, Marie, Edgar, Tonks and Frank settled themselves into his little cubicle.
"Yes please, make yourselves comfortable." He said sarcastically as he rolled his eyes.
"We will ta! Now, I believe you just had a meeting with the big cheese." Edgar said in his strong Scottish accent.
"I did, your reports will be sent to your cubicles in half an hour." He said as he tacked the picture back to his wall. Frank grinned and waved at the image as he blew kisses at the two picture images.
"Frank...stop flirting with me." Harry said as he watched the exchange with a raised eyebrow. Frank looked between picture Harry and real Harry before pretending to kiss real Harry. Everyone laughed loudly as the Captain dodged him.
"Frank behave." Marie said as she leant at the cubicle entrance.
"Anyway, we have to round up and bring in the last group of the original Death Eater's before they take out the Order of the Phoenix members." The animagi said as he brushed himself off.
"FINALLY some real work." Frank said as he bounced back into standing.
"Yes, but the reports are more informative so shove off the lot of you." Harry smirked as the group left slowly in chuckles.
Tonks however remained where she was as stole Kiki's previous sitting place.
"Tonks..." Harry said as he settled himself back into his chair, gazing at the picture once more.
"What's up Harry?" The witch said cheerfully as she swung her legs a little.
"Do you...do you think if I asked Cara to marry me, that...that he'd say yes?" the young Captain toyed with his sleeve a little as he said this, his voice quiet as he then turned to look at the bright hair coloured woman.
Tonks grinned widely and bounced excitedly in her place.
"Yes Harry, Oh Harry you have to ask him! Please, you two are perfect for one another! Oh please oh please oh please..."
Harry laughed loudly as the woman grabbed his hand and jerked it to bounce with her.
"Yes, yes. I'm thinking of asking him as soon as Hermione gets these papers cleared."
Tonks gave a loud whoop and danced around his room. Laughing the animagi stood to halt her but then she turned to look at him. They glanced at one another, grinned, then bounced into a hug where they continued to jump up and down.
~*~
"Is that him?" A voice rasped from its place beside the scowling woman.
Bellatrix gave a nod as she watched the two werewolves shopping, laughing lightly.
"Yes Rodolphus my love, that is indeed Potter's lover." The man sneered, as he looked the blonde young man over from a distance.
"Isn't Potter supposed to be a Half-blood? Surely he has a LITTLE dignity left not to get involved with such a vile creature?"
"Did my cousin?" The black haired woman spat back as the man looked at the two with the deepest loathing.
"Well should we take him? Break Potter rather then kill him?" Rodolphus gave his wife a calculating smile and although the woman returned it she shook his head.
"No, I've seen this guy simply crush McNair's hand with one movement. Werewolf strength, and there's two of them...no, we wait, we have to get him when he's distracted."
Looking back over the two looked the wolves over one last time before slipping back into the shadows.
~*~
Cara looked over to the far wall but no one was there. Then why had he felt like he was being watched? Why had his wolf senses gone off?
"Cara? You all right?"
The blonde looked back at the concerned face of his older friend and after a moment's hesitation he nodded. "Yeah...yeah, I just thought...nothing, I'm just being silly. It's this DE incident."
Nodding in understanding Remus turned back to face forward's in the queue.
The younger man stared off to a point blankly as he thought about the way Inari within him had raised his shackles, picking up the scent of danger.
He wanted to growl at the idea of anyone harming his mate. He could feel the wolf's natural protectiveness kicking in and closed his eyes to calm himself. In a muggle shop was not the best place to let the wolf freely control his reactions.
"Almost Lupercalia." Remus said out of the blue and Cara snapped his attention to the tawny man.
"What?" He asked a little bewildered as he dragged himself out of his thoughts.
"Almost Lupercalia, you and Harry need to renew your bonds."
The young blonde chuckled lightly.
"You mean the other night wasn't enough for the Higher powers?" Remus laughed and shook his head.
"Oh well." Cara sighed mockingly as they paid for the food. Even as he and Remus laughed lightly making their way out of the shop Cara couldn't entirely shake off the feeling that they were being watched. Shrugging it off he caught up with the older werewolf, completely missing the man and woman watching them from the street across the way.
