Disclaimer: Only Cara is mine
Thanks to:
Jenna: Aye now that you mention it is very similar to the LOTR wedding, ah well lol. I've really got to find somewhere to send my pictures, I'll find some site that'll take them lol. And I'm sorry but I feel that tinsy bit proud I made you shed a few tears (Blushes) sorry lol.
Hp-Azn: Eh, you're an impatient one aren't you? Yes there will be action and angst but it'll be soon. I can't just jump from the wedding to a huge battle, it wouldn't fit together. But I have something planned you'll probably get a kick out of anyway so just hold on.
Sykoticstalker27: Lol Aw bless, would you like a hanky? Thank you for your compliments once more, you're all so nice to me (grins). And please, if you're going to burn the dolls at least stick a few needles here and there!
Angel174: Lol I'm handing hankies out all over the place. Aye, very good about catching the meaning behind CARA receiving the dream, you're the first to say something about that. It's a shame Sirius isn't alive because I love writing for him, he's so much fun so I can't wait to start writing the Prequel to Little Wolf with Remus and Sirius's relationship. And tell me about it, I've missed writing for Draco lol.
Mlilacorbett: Lol there goes another hankie. Thank you for your compliments and sure, why not Lmao! I could start a business, Vows-R-Us!
Raven: Ah my head had inflated to impossible heights lol! You're so nice, you've even made me blush (grins). About the research that was funny because I was spread out on my bed with my Laptop resting on two thick books and I was surrounded by at least 13 different Wiccan books, all open on various pages when my mum walks in. She merely raises an eyebrow and says something along the lines of 'Well it's not maths but at least your learning.' Bloody hilarious at the time.
Elrohir lover: Aw you make me blush Lmao! Your friend is welcome. Anyway, hmm (ponders exchange)...oh alright, you've found my weak spot (exchanges kiss for chocolate!) I like sugar, who needs drugs when you have sugar to make you bounce? And thank you, I did particularly like that chapter (grins).
Pointofnoreturn: Lol well it's true! Next time you cry have a peek in the mirror. Your hair will be hanging limply around your face as you look back at bloodshot eyes and rosy cheek...mmm sexy lol! And thank you, I think that does indeed sum them up quite nicely. After this I think we'll be moving back into action though. And aye, I can't WAIT to start the prequel.
Chapter 29 – Crazy thing called Love
"What do you mean they're not in England?" Bellatrix Lestrange said as she stood abruptly from her chair. The Death Eater stood before her with a neutral look on his face, disguising the touch of fear he felt at the possibly outcome of this conversation.
"It appears that all the Order members have booked time off at where ever they work because not one of them is in England." He spoke in a deep voice as the woman gave a high-pitched growl when she turned away from him.
Lucius Malfoy simply remained sitting with his wife at his side as he sipped his wine from the pure silver goblet.
"Relax sister, it just means they went elsewhere for that ridiculous wedding between the abomination to life and the Potter boy. They will return soon, just calm yourself for now."
Bellatrix snapped at the Death Eater to leave as she threw herself back into her chair, her hands balled into fists on the tabletop. She'd flex them every now and again as she looked over at her brother-in-law.
"You seem too uncaring about this Lucius...something you're not telling me?" She said narrowing her eyes as the longhaired man smiled triumphantly at her. He called for a house-elf who came trembling in a few moments later carrying a box in its hands. It handed it over to the man before bowing and scurrying off again.
"And what, pray tell, is that?" Lestrange drawled lazily as Malfoy lifted the box onto the table. He opened it carefully before extracting something that brought a smile to Bellatrix's face.
"A dagger, dear brother? And why has this got you smiling so?" She said as he handed her the instrument.
"Finest silver in the world, right down to the hilt. It's lethal to any man, and is a sure killer of any Lycan."
Malfoy sipped his wine once more as a malicious smile crossed his lips.
"No werewolf has survived after that has been embedded in its spine."
"HARRY!" Harry and Cara, who had both been talking to some Auror's as they congratulated the couple, whipped round to find the Gryffindor's walking towards them. Excusing themselves they made their way together to the joyous group.
"Hi, Merlin I haven't seen you guys for years." The animagi said as he hugged the girls in turn and shook the men's hands after.
"Yeah man, we've missed you." Dean said as he playfully punched Harry's arm. He laughed before turning back to Cara who was toying with the edge of his cloak nervously. Smiling gently he reached for the blonde's hand and pulled him into the group.
"We then I'd like you to meet my husband. Everyone this is Cara, Cara this is everyone." Smiling the werewolf shook everyone's hands as they were introduced.
"Well aren't you a keeper. You know before you we thought Harry would NEVER get married." Parvarti Patel said as Cara moved to stand beside Harry, clasping the darker man's hand in both of his.
"What do you mean?" He asked softly as Harry scowled at the girl.
"That's not very nice." He grumbled but the girl merely laughed. She raised an eyebrow at him and placed her hands on her hips.
"Well do you even REMEMBER the Cho incident? THAT was a fiasco if there ever was one." She said and the group laughed as they agreed. Harry narrowed his eyes at the girl once more before pretending to look insulted.
"Not my fault she kept crying...Hang about, the rest of the DA is here...she's not..." A sort of panicked look jumped to his face as the group laughed again. It was Padma who spoke this time.
"I'm pretty sure Ron invited her as well but I think she was too scandalised. More then likely going 'A man? Marrying my ex? No way!' She probably took it personally that a male werewolf did what she couldn't."
Cara blushed a little as he gave a shy lop-sided smile. This seemed to send Lavender into fits of adoration as she whipped out a camera and took a photo, startling the blonde.
"What do you mean 'what she couldn't'?" Harry asked as he smirked at his blinking husband.
"She couldn't 'tame' the Gryffindor lion." The twin finished as the rest of the group laughed. This time Harry blushed as Cara joined in the laughter.
"Well as much fun as being teased by you lot is we have some dancing to go do." The animagi said as they left the group who gave a little cheer as they moved to the dance floor.
Cara, still chuckling lightly, slipped his arms up around Harry's neck as his mate slipped his around the blonde's waist. A slow paced song started up, more modern then the Celtic music that had been playing all night. They slowly began to sway in time with the music, Cara resting his temple against Harry's cheek.
/So dear to me
Always keep my company
Who needs to go outside
I will be your silent Bride/
Harry kissed his husband's temple lightly as they moved in a slow circle. Cara pulled back to rest his forehead against the animagi's so that they gazed into one another's eyes easily. He smiled as they continued to move.
/I can't take my eyes off you
Nothing needs to be said
You send your message
Right into my head/
"Have you had a good day?" Harry whispered into the werewolf's ear as they swayed gently in time. Briefly he noted they were the only one's dancing but he didn't care, as far as he was concerned there was only Cara.
"The best day." Came the whispered reply.
/You fill me up when I'm alone
So soothing is your monotone
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you/
"I always imagined this happening to other people." The blonde continued, his nose rubbing against Harry's. His lips would graze over his new husband's mouth as he spoke.
/So maybe you're not as real as the others
But I choose you over all my past lovers
For they have come and they have gone
But I can always turn you on/
The song was nearing its end but still they moved in this slow circle as Cara's cloak trailed around them, his hands slipping down to toy with the elegant raven ponytail of his lover.
/I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you/
They stopped moving, still their arms around one another as everyone clapped. Briefly they both caught sight of a Mrs Weasley who had obviously lost her whole fight and was crying openly into Mr Weasley's shoulder.
They smiled at one another and kissed as several flashes of cameras went off.
Remus stood by a pillar with his arms crossed over his chest as he watched the two kiss happily. He smiled at them with his heart swelling with pride for them both. He turned to look out the window as the sun was beginning to set on the horizon. Wanting a better look he picked up his drink and carried it outside into the meadow beside the Inn.
He sat down on the ground as he watched the horizon turn pink in the Highland skies. He closed his eyes blissfully as he let the cool breeze wash over his smartly dressed body. It was then that he felt someone standing behind him.
Turning he found no one there making him frown. He was a werewolf and for all the years he'd been under the curse his senses had never let him down. Turning back round he watched the sky again but kept his senses cast out this time.
("You're a cautious bugger you know that?")
Remus's heart stopped at the sound of that voice. He whipped his head round as he stood and looked around frantically. His breathing became erratic until finally his voice came out in a hoarse cracked tone.
"Padfoot?" He whispered as he heard a low chuckle that sent spikes of pleasure down his spine.
("How you doing love?") Came the soft reply and he let out an almost inaudible cry as he smiled. He felt an invisible hand cup his cheek and closing his eyes he leant into it.
"Better t-then before." He stuttered out as the hand was joined by another on his other cheek.
("I came like you asked love...I met Cara, like you asked.")
A tear rolled down Remus's cheek but he smiled and hovered his hand over the sensation on his cheek.
"I know, he gave me your m-message." The wind picked up and he could hear the laughter from the party picking up, drifting around him.
("I have to go now but I just wanted you to know I came...that I still love you.")
Nodding Remus let a few more tears make their slow trail down his cheeks. He felt a tingling sensation on his lips as unseen lips gently rested upon them, a little pressure being added until finally he could no longer feel the presence.
"We'll see you when you get back." Harry said as he and Cara hugged everyone in turn. They had their bags ready by the door as they had dressed into normal clothing once more, ready to leave on their honeymoon.
"Have a good time." Remus said as he finished hugging Cara and the two newly weds left with a final wave.
