Ch 12
I do believe this is the end for this story. My only hope is that I end it in a way that isn't going to disapoint anyone.
If I may, I would like to dedicate this story to Diosa Alexia

"Have you ever wondered where you were going to be at this moment? What your life would be like?" Her quiet voice broke the silence of the night air. Next to her, Remus lay quietly, a thoughtful look on his face.
"Not this paticular moment, no." He said with a smile. When she jabbed him lightly with her elbow and muttered something that sounded like 'smart ass', he grinned and continued. "I remember when I was a child, wondering what sort of future I could possibly have. I didn't see one. But obviuosly, that wasn't the case. I've always wondered how I was lucky enough to deserve you. Sometimes I still marvel at it. Since I've known you, I have always wanted to know where the next moment was going because in truth, I was desperate to make sure that it held you. So, I guess I have wondered where I would be at this moment." He finished and felt Hermione nod against his shoulder. A cool breeze ran through the trees around them. Shifting slightly, Remus readjusted his makeshift pillow and pulled Hermione closer.
They had been laying in the clearing for hours. As the sun had set, Remus had pulled a blanket from his bag and set it on the ground. The forest had since grown dark around them. Starlight and a pale sliver of moonlight played across Hermione's features as Remus absently ran his fingertips across her bare skin. She had made one request of him and he had willingly granted it. Now, after their gentle bout of passion, they lay together underneath the moon. The irony of it, not lost on either of them.
"And what of you love? Where did you see yourself at this point in time?" he asked after he cleared his throat. Bending forward to whisper in her ear, "surely not here, in this...situation" he said with a teasing voice. His fingertips danced across her bare skin, making her giggle.
"The only place I have wanted to be, at any moment is with you. That is the only thought I have had for my future. To be with my husband, carrying his child. That is the only thing I need."
"When do I meet him?" Remus asked. Hermione pretented to look at a watch.
"He is late. Bugger... I guess that this "situation" will suffice." Remus let out a loud bark of laughter before he rolled Hermione onto her back and kissed her deeply. Wrapping her arms around his shoulders, she pulled him down on top of her. After a moment, Remus left Hermione's lips and moved down, traveling between her breasts and settling on her stomach. Gently, he placed feather kisses around the slight swelling present in her belly. Hearing her giggle once more, Remus trailed his lips back up to her mouth and he devoured her. Quickly, things escalated, but there was never a loss of control. Slowly, they moved together.
When they had finished, both collasped, content. Remus's hand found it's way to Hermione's stomach again and he was drawing slow patterns of nothing across the skin. Releasing a sigh, she moved her hand up to join Remus's and together they traced the slight bugle. A smile came to Hermione's face.
"Thank you Remus."
"For what Love?" He asked, propping himseld up on one arm to look down at her.
"You made me a whole person." She said, squeezing his fingers gently.
"You saved my life Hermione." He said, after a moment of thought. "I owe you everything in my being. You gave me the reason to live my life for. You and our daughter are the most precious things I could ever hope to have."
Hermione smiled up at him as his lips lowered to hers. Pulling the blanket up to cover them, Remus surrendured as Hermione pushed him on to his back.
"I am yours forever Remus. As your wife, but more importantly as the one who is completely in love with you. I am yours and I can only hope that I am lucky enough to have you for the rest of our lives. There isn't a purpose to mine, if you aren't there with me." She said, her voice betraying the emotions running through her. Remus moved to wrap his arms around her and lowered his lips to hers again. Stopping just before they met, he spoke in a low voice.
"You are my purpose Hermione. You are my love, my wife, my savior and soon to be, the mother of our child. You are all of those things and so much more. I am the luckiest man alive to have so much, especially when I couldn't possibly deserve it. I love you. I will always love you." With this, their lips met gently.
Underneath the moonlight, they were consumed.
