I own nothing that you recognize and I make no money. I am starting to go back and edit the story and make it a little longer hopefully. This is the only chapter that I have changed so far and I hope to have it fixed completely soon. Thanks Rebelgal

Remus missed the smell of textbooks he loved the way they filled the brain with knowledge that they held in the thin leaves. He loved teaching even when the students didn't want to learn.

An old man sat on a desk and watched the newest teacher unpack his belongings. This is the Remus J. Lupin, werewolf, and a great man. You could see gray hair in his sandy brown. The man moved with grace and caution. He looked tired and worn from his years living with out the love of somebody.

" How have you been in the last four years, Remus old friend" The old man smiled with a twinkle in his blue eyes.

That man still has those beautiful blue eyes always caring and always loving. How anybody could love a werewolf, I may never know. " Fine. Living from one full moon to the next." He picked up a book and placed it on a bookshelf.

" Fine. Living from one full moon to the next." He picked up a book and placed it on a bookshelf.

" How can anybody not love you, you're a kind caring man with a good heart and a mean past. You, like all of the Marauders including Peter were and still like family. I married Lily and James and I held Harry like a grandson. What happened on your fourth birthday happened for a reason. A reason that made you a stronger man." Albus walked closer with a smile on his face and I twinkle in his eyes.

" How do you do that?" Remus took a seat and watched his old headmaster. The man lived through two wars and held a smile on his face. Albus welcomed him into the school knowing that he could hurt the students.

" Do what Remus?"

" Read minds."

" A gift that runs in my family." Albus smiled even harder. "You think I'm strange you should have met my grandfather. Now that man was a lost nut. Lemon drop."

" You are going to rot your teeth out if you don't stop eating those sweets. Last time that I touched on of them muggle sweets I kept heart burn of a week." I wonder how Harry and his friends are doing? They must be grown with lives of their own.

" They are doing great, but like every one else they grew up. Harry looks like his father did when he was seventeen, Ron still has that red hair but now he works on his work a little more but Hermione still throws books at them." Dumldedore smiled, " Hermione has been the looker with all the boys. Even Draco has been looking."

" That I never expected him to be looking." She has finally grown up.

" Stop I don't want to hear the rest." Dumbledore walked to the door. " Watch what you think you don't know who might be listening to your mind." He smiled and closed the door.

That old man has lost his lid.

" Watch what you think." Dumldedore chuckled as he walked away.

" Bloody nut case!" Remus slammed the book down that he was holding.

" How was your summer Harry?" Hermione asked taken a bite of roll. She wanted to look at the newest teacher but she kept her eyes to her self. She knew that Harry liked her but she always saw him as a brother and nothing more.

He just blushed and turned his head, " fine. They don't want me returning this summer. Now that I am going to be a full fled wizard. I think I am going to surprise them and show up for birthdays." She is so beautiful with her brown hair and long legs.

"How about you Ron." She allowed his thought pass her by.

He blushed to and turned his head, " same old same old. Brothers fighting and playing around and Ginny hanging out with her latest boyfriend; they all drove me crazy. How was your summer?" I want Hermione for me. I want her long legs wrapped around my waist…Ron adjusted his body away from Hermione.

" My parents made me stay home saying ' No you my not go out. This is the last year of you staying with us.' They drove me up the wall. Now tell me your house is worst than mine. When I got on the train, they were crying. They think just because I am a witch that I won't visit. Those damn muggles drive me bonkers; they think that I won't visit. What I am going to do not invite them to me wedding not let them see their grandchildren, not bring my husband. They are killing me telling me don't forget your parents. I want to kill somebody."

Harry watched her. Her lips are so full and waiting for me to kiss them if she would only allow me the chance.

Ron moved further away. I want her to scream my name as I bring both of us to the top I want her to scream I love you all night long to me.

She grabbed her things; she hated when the boys started thinking that she loved them or wanted them to touch her, and walked to the Head Girl dormitory.

Hermione was lying on the couch in front of the fire reading a book. Dressed in her school uniform that she unbuttoned a few buttons and allowed her the pleasure of feeling pretty when no body was around her she looked relaxed and calmed down. The fire's made her once frizzy hair glow.

She looks beautiful like an angel.

" Don't tell me that I have teachers looking at me too." She turned and faced Remus. She loved the way his hair looked in the dim light of the fire.

" Don't tell me you reading minds like Dumbledore." Remus turned his face from her body and knowing eyes.

" Only the strong thoughts I am afraid. I can pick up on little things if I try hard enough. Why are you here; let me guess you're teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts? I knew you would return it just took you long enough." She closed her book and sat it on the coffee table.

" What is your problem?" He leaned over and caught a glimpse of her lovely mounds that called his name.

" What do you mean?" She looked at his bluish green eyes with wonder.

" I saw how you were treating Harry and Ron and the table."

" There is no way you could have understood what is was saying."

" Your not Hermione are you? You know I can notice what you say easily; I am a Freak a werewolf or did you forget. My senses are ten times what a normal human is. You know what I become every month and animal a freak."

" I forgot. Professor Lupin I am sorry. You're not a freak or a animal you're a human being." She smiled. "Just because the world does not see it doesn't mean that it is not true."

" You saw what happens every month. How can you sit there and tell me I am not an animal. I don't need to be here but I am doing Dumbledore a favor, I don't need to be near kids. Would you believe that the parents wanted me to teach their children? They said ' He went to school with us as a werewolf and no body got hurt.' They don't care but they don't know what it is like."

" Come sit down." Hermione sat up and patted the place be side her and she moved her long toned legs.

" How can anybody be near me? People won't hug me or smile at he. They are scared that I am going to bite them." He moved and sat by her on a near by chair. He felt his wolf side call for her loving the wolf wanted Hermione

" Sometimes a bite can't be to bad." She smirked, "Can I ask you something?" She reached out and moved a stray bang from his face.

When did she start acting like that? " Yeah." He closed his eyes as she touched his scared face with care.

"Can you have children and not turn them into werewolves?" She pulled away and smiled.

" Yeah. The only way you can become a werewolf is if they bite you, but nobody will ever marry a werewolf yet alone have their children." He moved from the back of the chair and sat by his student.

" You will find somebody. I promise that you will find somebody." She turned and faced the flames of the fire. She wanted to feel his body next to her and hold her like she wanted.

" You think?" He sound excited at the thought.

" I know so. You're a good man you will find somebody." She moved he leg.

" Now can I ask you something?" He caught him self-wanting to slide the skirt of her leg and touch her where she knew she would enjoy the touch of a man.

" Yes." She turned and faced him.

" What was your problem at dinner?" He noticed the softness of her skin.

" My monthly problem." They both just broke down and laughed.

Just then Remus stopped, looked at the door and sniffed the air. " Its just Harry." Damn and I wanted her to my self. Stop it Remus she can read your mind and you are her teacher you do not do thing like that with a student. But she is of age and she can make her own decisions.

Hermione looked at him as she fought with her self " How do you know? Now that was a stupid question." Just then, Harry walked in. "Remind me not to try sneaking up on you."

" Trust me it can be done but you have to know how." He looked at Hermione at his eyes flashed bright amber and looked at Harry. " I will see you Sunday."

" Why don't you visit tomorrow night?" Harry asked.

" Two words, full moon. Good night." That girl has grown into a lovely woman.

Hermione didn't say a think she just smiled and whispered. " You're special."

She watched him leave and walked to her bedroom. " Where do you think your going?"

" To bed." She snapped at Harry.

You love him. Harry thought to himself.

" Maybe."

" Just don't break his heart. He doesn't need it right now." Harry walked to his room knowing that Hermione would never be his.

The pain in his body gave him the want not to get up from bed but he knew the quickest way to heal was to move. The light slowly filled his eyes as he pulled him self from the covers. He knew that she stayed in the closet waiting for him to wake up. She smelled so lovely as she waited for him. He hated the early stages of the transformation.

Remus pulled himself from the bed, " Hermione come out of the closet now I know that you are getting cramped. What are you doing?"

" Seeing if I can sneak up on you." She opened the door and stepped for the closet.

She looked beautiful with her long hair pulled from her face. The black top hugged her growing chest and slim waist. Her hips flared from her waist that she showed the male population that she was a female. The muggle jeans hugged her muscled thighs and flared at the bottom and her high-heeled boots ended her attire. She wore the faintest makeup that made him smile even more.

" Have you lost it?" He covered his lap with the heavy blanket. He wore no shirt that showed off his scares that he earned over the years.

" I wanted to ask you something?" She started to pace the floor.

" Let me guess you want to see me as a werewolf again. The answer is no." He crossed his arms to make his point

" And why not you have been taking your potion. So I don't see any problem with it." She acted like her old know-it-all self.

" I don't like people seeing me change or being around me." Remus pushed his wolf side to the back of his mind.

" What the Marauders saw you." She moved closer knowing that his body wanted sex.

" Your impossible. They had to see me so I won't hurt any body. Now I can just curl beneath my desk and sleep I don't have to worry about any body hurting me or hurting any body. Decisions ended and don't ask again." Remus moved away.

" Why are you scared that I may scream and run away never talking to again. I have seen you at your worst and I want to see you when you're calm. Please you already have me has a friend and I am not going to think anything of it."

" One time that is it one time then leave me alone." She is pretty when she argues.

" Thanks." She smiled for both reasons.

" Meet me here before the sun goes down. Oh get permission from Dumbledore so we won't get in trouble."

" Already have it." She held the parchment in her hand.

" You're good." He smiled and lay back down and smiled as the door clicked shut. The man that catch her needs to hang on to her

She walked away smiling.

" You have to be kidding he is letting you stay with him to night." Ginny screamed and the Great hall looked.

" Yes now keep it down. He knows what we are talking about."

" How he is at the teacher's table."

" Watch this Ginny." Hermione bent down and whispered, " Remus looked at Ginny would you."

Hermione watched Remus turn his head to Ginny and smiled. His eyes were bright amber instead of a dull brown.

" He knows that you called him. I don't see how he can pick your voice out of a bunch of students talking about him. His eyes they're a creepy color, I thought he didn't turn into a werewolf until to night."

" Ginny werewolves have a side affect from wolfsbane. People think that they are going to kill you by looking at you. To me they can be wonderful creatures. Yes they can be deadly but does he look like he is going to kill a student, maybe Professor Snape but not a student." She watched him spit his pumpkin juice all over Snape.

Good one girl that was a good joke and your right I would rather kill Snape than a student. Every body was looking and laughing at the teacher's table.

Every body was looking and laughing at the teacher's table.

" He knew what you said."

" Yep, I want to talk a walk want to come?"

" Why not." Ginny jumped up following Hermione not far behind. Ginny missed the smile Hermione gave Remus.

See you tonight Hermione. Remus thought as looked at Hermione.

" Are you going to sleep with him?" Ginny didn't take her eyes of the lake.

" That was totally uncalled for. I don't know the answer to that question I feel something towards him. Do you think that he will ever marry somebody?"

" Yeah." She just smiled.

" What?" Hermione narrowed her eyes. She could not read Ginny's mind.

" Can't read my mind." Ginny just smiled.

" You know how to block me out don't you." Hermione grinned at her friend's ability

" Yeah. Thanks to my boyfriend." Ginny waited for Hermione's reaction.

" Speaking of boyfriends who his he? Do I know him?" Hermione noted the time of the day and hoped that it would hurry up.

" You know him. He is very well know bother in the Wizard world and the muggle world." Ginny walked a little faster.

Hermione's just fell. It couldn't be him could it? " Black."

" Yep."

" Why didn't you tell me? When did he return, but didn't he die a few years ago? Where has he been staying, who all know, when do I get to see him?" Hermione wanted answers.

" Slow down with the questions. I didn't tell you because you would run to Harry and Sirius doesn't want the world to know about him just yet. He came back last summer he didn't die. He has been staying with me. I have been keeping him with me; every thought that he died so when I brought home the black stray dog and nobody thought a thing. Only the three of us know and he is over there." Ginny pointed to the Forbidden forest enough he stood the not so famous Sirius Black.

He was standing in rags but there he stood. He looked better but considering what he went through he looked good. Hermione ran to him knocking him down. " Why didn't you write me I would have keep my mouth shut?"

" Same old Hermione I knew years ago. How about you two take me to the head master. I want to see Remus and from what I here you are going to watch him change. How you talked him into it I may never know." Black looked at Ginny and smiled.

"So you have finally decided to show your face here and ask for help." The old man crossed his fingers and stared at Ginny and Sirius. They're in love, Hermione.

She didn't say a word she just looked at Professor Dumbledore, Yeah. They are perfect for each other, but what do you thing Molly will do to Sirius when she finds out. "What I am thinking what is she going to do to Remus when she finds out the plans I have for him.

"I have decided to allow Sirius to say here under one condition please be careful and use protection." The both of you! "You have plans tonight Hermione so you may leave but the two of you need to stay." He waited for Hermione to leave the room. " The both of you need to inform Harry and Ron and your mother Ginny. Now you two can rest assure I won't say anything unless I feel I should. Now promise me that the two will be careful." His eyes just twinkled and a grin came upon his face the two of you may leave and your new room is beside the Head Dormitories."

The both shook their heads and left the room that they would be sharing from now on. They walked side by side with Sirius as a dog and Ginny a girl in love with a good man. They would work through the problems and hopefully make a good family.
