I came to the next morning, still at my desk. Glancing around tiredly, I lifted my head. Perhaps it had all been a silly dream. Yes, I thought, it must have been. The house seemed as empty as always. I closed my books, and put my things away, feeling what appeared to be a pang of bitter disappointment. "A dream, what a pity." I muttered, shutting things away in my drawer.
I stood up, feeling a hint of curiosity. I'll check the guestroom, I thought, heading for the stairs. Just to be sure. I walked silently up the stairs, straightening my hair as I went. I saw the door, and stopped. Turning the doorknob slowly, I opened the door quietly and peered inside. My heart skipped a beat. It hadn't been a dream, for there he was, Remus Lupin, asleep in the bed.
Approaching his sleeping form carefully, I looked down on him. He looked to have been sleeping rather roughly this night. No wonder, I thought, He is of course in mourning. It will take some time. I bit my lip, seeing him quiver in his sleep, and immediately felt a bit daring.
Bending over him, my breathing quickened a bit. He was now laying on his back, in his sleep. With a soft smile, I lowered my face and kissed him lightly on the lips, feeling my cheeks grow scarlet. And with that, I quickly and silently left the room, smirking to myself. "I'm going to pay for this and I know it." I murmured, heading towards my bedchambers. "I am asking for trouble."
Remus
I woke up from my dream with a start. I had been having nightmares all night, that is, until this dream. It was odd. I dreamt the very same dream I had been dreaming all night, except that this time, the ending was quite different. Just as I thought I would see him leave me again, the dream just faded away. I felt oddly comforted. I could not quite place what was going on, but the dream seemed so real. I felt myself relax, and soft lips touched my own.
I sat up, rubbing my eyes. There was no one in the room. I was alone. Touching my lips, I wondered whether or not I had dreamed that kiss. It certainly felt real. Glancing around, I stood up, and remade the bed, opening the dark curtains with a yawn. Shortly thereafter, I left the room, and headed downstairs. I noticed how lonely the house looked. Minako must be quite lonely here; I pondered and trailed my fingers along the wall as I made my way back down the stairs I had trodden upon the previous night.
I stopped in front of a mirror in the hall before the stairs. Sighing, I ran my fingers over my face. I was still quite young, but the stress of my life as a werewolf was obviously taking its toll. My dark hair was greying slightly. I ran a hand through it, and continued down through the corridor, following the scent of bacon.
Finding myself in the kitchen, I turned and saw Minako. A shiver ran down my spine, as I took a seat. She had let her hair down, I noticed, and at that it complemented her beautifully. "Good morning. Would you like something to eat?" she asked, turning around. I managed to choke out a "Yes, please." And she smiled. I smiled back, to my surprise. I could have sworn I'd never seen her smile.
OOC: To be continued. Hehehe.
