Minako
Several months have passed. I have not seen tip or tail of Remus, and it worries me- to my dismay. I was supposed to be this cold, distant Auror, completely wrapped up in her job. This seems to have fallen away quite a bit. Or it did after I saw him.
Remus, such a handsome name, taken right from mythology. Yet as I revel in the ironies of his name, I realize I am being an idiot and a fool once more, daydreaming.
I stepped into my house, out of the rain like so many months ago, and shook off my cloak, hanging it up. With a sigh, I started for the kitchen. Perhaps a good bowl of ramen would cheer me up.
As I went to pass through the living room, I froze with sudden and instantaneous remembering. The door was not locked as I came in.
Remus
I had to admit I was not fully aware of what I was doing. Sneaking into someone's house was not my first choice of casually breaking the ice with this someone that I had longed to talk to for months but did not.
I still grieved. I could not shake it. Today had occurred much like several months ago, and I let myself in with the key she had slipped me, in hopes she would not mind. I coughed, sitting by the living room fire, and she found me.
Mina
I found him by the living room fire, and sighed with relief softly. I thought someone had broken in. Well, someone had. Remus to be exact. That mischievous rapscallion had taken advantage of the key I left him. I should have known.
"Ah Remus. It seems we meet again." I said quietly, leaning against the back of the armchair. Brushing against the back of his head. I stifled a shiver that nearly went down my spine. A close call indeed.
Remus answered me, in a whisper. "Yes." He trailed off. "Are you hungry? I was about to cook some ramen." I inquired. He smiled. "Yes, and thank you." The smile lasted only briefly, and faded as quickly as it had appeared.
After which I made my way into the kitchen, to start on that ramen.
Remus
I watched her leave, shivering into the blanket with both cold and excitement. She did not mind at all. What a relief that was to me.
I knew that Severus would be furious. The truth was he wanted her all to himself, using the excuse that I was a werewolf, and it would never work. I knew he was right. Still, a man could try, no?
I wondered briefly at what ramen was. I had never had this food before in my entire life.
And though I wondered at the food, I wondered more still at what would happen between us. I shivered again with hope, feeling a surge of warmth inside me. Following that up with a severe mental scolding. She was a friend. A hard on was exceedingly inappropriate.
Lessien: I am SO sorry. I haven't updated in what seems to be ages.... I lost the gist of everything for a while. But I'm okay now. (-);
At any rate, I'll try to get a new chapter up every week. This is a long one. Then I'll start on my new stuff.
Ramen is an Asian noodle food dish. It is served like soup really, and is fantastic in my opinion.
