Disclaimer: I own pretty much nothing.

Brunette89: I'm glad you like it! As for why it was removed, well, I'm more concerned about why my entire old account was removed. So, I have no idea.

Eleonora1: Yes, I am trying to make it look like I'm writing it all the time, when in fact, I have the first 7 chapters (I think) already written. He he, I'm sure Rem with his cute looks and sweetness could stop anyone from becoming evil!

Jadwiga: Ha ha, Remus' reaction towards his Christmas presents is a play on my reaction. I always sit there eagerly on Christmas eve staring at the presents, willing them to open :-D

Danielle: Don't worry, their first kid or their first girl will be Danielle, like I promised. Glad you still like it!

Warning: A 17-year-old wanking further down.

Chapter 4: Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Remus sat down behind the broom shed, still in his Quidditch robes. He wiped his eyes as the tears threatened to come forward, he had just found out his grandmother had died and now his boyfriend had just dumped him.

He pulled his knees up to his chest and stared at the forest in front of him, he ignored the voices of people putting their brooms away after the Quidditch match, Slytherin vs. Gryffindor.

"Bloody Gryffindors! Why do they always win?!"

"They practise more than we do. Potter's new regime."

"Bloody hell! Well…why don't we practise more then?"

"I am the Head Boy, I don't have time to practise so often."

"Make time then."

"Do you want me to hex you?"

Remus rolled his eyes, Knott and Malfoy bickering again. Of course, hearing them just upset him more, Robert Knott was the one that had just dumped him, although, Remus did actually have a bit of a crush on Lucius Malfoy. Not that he would ever admit that though.

"You were so close to the Snitch. Why'd you let Lupin catch it?"

"Cause I felt like it now piss off!"

"Fine…"

Remus heard someone's footsteps crunching away on the leaves then he heard an angry voice and someone hitting the broom shed.

"Fucking idiots!"

Remus sniffled and looked down at the ground, it wasn't until he saw a shadow that he realised he wasn't alone on this side of the shed. He looked up and saw Lucius Malfoy watching him. Was that concern? "What do you want?"

Lucius shrugged and sat down next to him, "I heard sniffling, thought I should investigate. Don't see why you're crying, you just won the match."

Remus rolled his eyes, "Not that it's any of your business, but my grandmother just died and I was just dumped by my boyfriend." He sighed and stared back at the forest again. "I hate people."

"Likewise."

Remus looked back at Lucius curiously, "Why? You have everything."

"Doesn't mean I'm happy." Replied Lucius honestly. "And anyway, happiness isn't something that comes with being a Malfoy…or a Slytherin."

Remus couldn't believe it, he was having a civil conversation with Lucius Malfoy, someone who he had always thought hated him. "Fair enough…just before we get too involved in conversation, why are you being nice to me?"

Lucius quirked his eyebrows, "Unlike the rest of Slytherin House, I happen to like the occasional Gryffindor. Especially cute ones such as yourself."

Remus nodded and then stopped when he realised what Lucius had just said, "…You're gay?"

Lucius laughed quietly and shook his head, "No, I like both sexes."

Remus eyed him a moment, "Why do you like me?"

Lucius stretched his legs out in front of him, "Well, can I call you Remus?" Remus nodded. "Well…I've had a bit of a soft spot for you since you were sorted back in your first year."

Remus raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

Lucius smiled and nodded, "We're not all bad you know?"

Remus smiled, "I know, I've been dating Slytherins since I was thirteen." Lucius raised his eyebrows. "Robert Nott is the most recent."

"He's the one that just dumped you?" Questioned Lucius.

Remus nodded, "Yeah…I don't mind so much, I'm just upset because it happened straight after I was told my gran had died."

Lucius frowned, he checked his watch. "Shit, I have to go." As he started to get up he spoke again. "We should talk again. I'd like to get to know you better."

Remus smiled, "I'd like that." Lucius ruffled his hair. "Hey!"

"See you soon then." Said Lucius standing up straight. "How about tomorrow night? I checked the Prefect roster and apparently I'm stuck with you."

Remus smirked and nodded, "Good to know you'd enjoy it."

"Oh I think I will." Lucius winked and left the young Gryffindor sitting on the grass.

Remus smiled, things appeared to be looking up for him already.

………

Remus awoke early Christmas morning and smiled, he loved that dream, it still surprised him at how nice Lucius had been. But then again, that was one of the reasons Remus had fallen for the blonde Slytherin.

Remus' thinking was soon cut off when the curtains around his bed were parted and Sirius' dishevelled head appeared. "You can open your presents now."

Remus yawned and smiled tiredly, "Oh goodie. Give me a minute."

"Okay." Sirius' head disappeared again and Remus could hear him going to wake James up.

"Get off Sirius!"

Remus snorted as he climbed out of bed, he found a warm sweater and a pair of pants to put on, and then he searched for some socks in his trunk. "I'll see you guys downstairs."

"Okay." Replied Sirius again. He shook James again and earned a smack around the head this time. "Ow…"

………

When Sirius had finally dragged James out of bed and downstairs, they found Remus sitting on the floor looking through a book which he quickly snapped shut when he saw them appear.

Sirius surveyed the torn wrapping paper; "You can't help yourself can you?"

Remus gave him the puppy eyes, "But I wanted to see what Luce got me."

James rolled his eyes and plonked himself down next to Remus, "And what did he get you?" Remus held the leather bound book protectively with a cheeky grin on his face. "It's dirty isn't it?"

Remus laughed, "Oh it's very dirty and I'm not letting you look."

James snorted, "S'ok, I didn't particularly want to look."

The three boys spent the rest of the morning tearing into presents, chatting and laughing. Before lunch Remus took his pile of presents upstairs, he dumped them on the floor beside his bed and placed his present from Lucius under his pillow, he planned to have fun with it later tonight.

After that, the boys headed off to the Great hall for Christmas lunch. Dumbledore, McGonagall and a few other students were already there.

"Ah hello boys. Merry Christmas." Said Dumbledore smiling; he was wearing a paper wizard's hat from one of the crackers.

The feast was a joyous occasion, everyone enjoying themselves and just having a merry Christmas.

That night, after James and Sirius had gone to sleep, Remus drew the curtains around his bed and cast a silencing charm on it. He opened the leather bound book from Lucius and read the note inside under the light of his wand.

Hey Gorgeous

I know how much you miss having me inside of you when I'm away, so I thought I'd send you a little reminder. Have fun with this present; I know I will with my copy.

Luce

P.S. I love you and I'll see you sooner than you think.

That last bit of the note confused Remus, what was his boyfriend talking about? But he decided not to think on because he wanted to look at the book.

The leather bound book from Lucius, was in fact a photo album, but not just any photo album. The entire thing contained wizarding photos of Remus and Lucius during their various sexual encounters. He wondered vaguely about how Lucius had managed to obtain all these pictures but he figured his boyfriend had set up a sneaky hidden camera.

Remus could feel himself getting hard just by thinking about the wonderful pictures in this album. He turned the first page and gazed at himself and Lucius making out, they were both half-naked and he had a very good view of their tongues gliding together.

Suddenly the material of his red boxers was becoming quite refining, he put the book down and got his boxers off, this was precisely why he had put a silencing charm on his bed.

Lucius came in his hand stifling his moan with his pillow. He had been thinking about Remus and looking at the wizarding photos he had sneakily taken.

Actually being out of the country and on the other side of the world, Lucius realised just how much he wanted Remus by his side, how much he really did love the young Gryffindor.

After Remus had cleaned himself up, he put his photo album in his bedside table draw and curled up under the thick warm blankets on his bed. He closed his eyes and soon drifted off to sleep, a small smile gracing his lips and thoughts of Lucius filling his mind.

………

It was soon the Welcome Back Feast after Christmas, everyone was soon seated at their House tables awaiting Dumbledore's speech.

Ever since Remus had sat down, he had had his eyes fixed on a certain blond up at the Head Table.

How come he never told me? Thought Remus, he figured Lucius must be there because he had taken the Defense Against the Dark Arts position. Oh well, this is a good surprise though.

Sirius was staring at the Head Table in disbelief; he turned to Remus and whispered into the werewolf's ear. "He may be your boyfriend but if he gives me a detention I'll prank him bad."

Remus snorted with laughter as Dumbledore stood to make the speech.

"Welcome back everybody." Said the old Headmaster. "I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas." There were various murmurs of affirmation from the student body. "Now, as you all know, our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Aspin resigned before the Christmas break. But, we were lucky enough to find a replacement, so please give a warm welcome to your new Professor, Lucius Malfoy."

The Slytherins all cheered loudly; Remus, Sirius and James all looked over to their table and rolled their eyes.

"He hates the Slytherins." Muttered Remus under his breath.

Sirius shrugged, "Yeah, but he's probably going to treat them like Eston does because he was a Slytherin and I know right now that he's definitely not going to show any favouritism towards the student he is fucking."

Remus gave Sirius a look, "Thanks, it is more than just sex though."

"Now let the feast begin." Said Dumbledore before sitting back down.

The tables filled up with food and hungry students started piling up their plates.

As Remus loaded food onto his plate he glanced up at the Head Table and saw Lucius glancing down at him, he smiled when he saw his boyfriend wink at him.

"You are so in love." Remarked James in amusement.

Remus just smiled and started eating his dinner.

………

When they got back to their dorm after dinner, Remus found a note on his pillow; he unfolded it and read it quickly.

Rem

I wanted it to be a surprise. My quarters are on the third floor behind that door next to the D.A.D.A classroom door. Come and see me at midnight. Please?

Luce

Remus smiled, Why not?…I thought that door was a supply cupboard, not the teacher's Quarters…Oh well…

About ten to midnight, Remus made sure James, Sirius and Peter were asleep before grabbing James' Invisibility, he threw it over himself and left the dormitory. He headed out of the Common Room and along corridors and down stairs to get to the third floor.

When he got to the door next to the classroom door he knocked on it and it soon opened on its own. Remus pulled the cloak off and stepped into the very spacious quarters that now belonged to his boyfriend. "Hello?" He jumped when the door closed behind him.

Lucius appeared from what apparently, was a hallway, "Hey you."

Remus smiled, he put the Invisibility Cloak over the back of a chair and went over to Lucius. "So you did think about this then?"

Lucius nodded and slipped his arms around Remus' slim waist, "Yes I did and I think it was a very good decision." He moved his head down and kissed Remus on the lips.

Remus slipped his arms around Lucius' neck and deepened the kiss; he could feel Lucius stroking his back and sides. "Mm…I've been wanting to do that since I got your present."

Lucius smirked, "I take it you enjoyed it then."

"Oh yeah." Remus kissed him again. "I loved it…you don't know how many times I got off on it."

"Hope you didn't spoil the pictures." Said Lucius grinning. "But I quite enjoyed my copies."

Remus laughed quietly, he gazed at Lucius for a moment. "I missed you."

Lucius rested his forehead against Remus', "I missed you too, much more than I usually do."

"Oh gee, thanks." Replied Remus in mock offense.

Lucius smiled, "But that's only because I realised just how much I want you…and need you." They kissed again, softly at first, but the kiss grew more passionate by the second and the two lovers soon forgot about what time it was or the fact that classes started again tomorrow morning, as they made their way through to Lucius' bedroom.

A/N: How was that? Yes I know, no sex scenes yet, don't worry though, you'll get them eventually, or perhaps not considering I've been deleted twice before, possibly because of those scenes.
