I have decided to do the chapters in the future in the main point of view
because, for one, I think it is easier and two, I wanted to establish the
feelings of the two central characters and I think I have sufficiently done
that so I thought I would just get on with the story from now on. I think
now you know how the characters feel about each other, and you will see it
through their actions as well.
Chapter 11: Disturbing The Peace
Main POV
It had just turned three in the morning when Accalia and Remus awoke to a loud thumping on Remus's door.
"What...?" mumbled Accalia not fully awake but then groaned at the loss of contact as Remus's arm suddenly disappeared from around her waist.
"Who is it?" called Remus sitting up. He then quickly grabbed his dressing gown and wrapped it around his body.
"Harry," came a voice from outside the door.
Accalia sat up quickly and locked eyes with Remus as he turned to look at her.
'Harry?!' mouthed Remus, eyes wide.
Remus glanced at the door and back at Accalia before saying,
"Just a moment Harry."
"What are we going to do?" whispered Remus staring around at the clothes strewn across the room.
"Accio Clothes," whispered Accalia. Hers and Remus clothes flew into her hands. She then pulled the curtains shut that hung from the four-poster bed. Remus stood surprised before Accalia stuck her head through the curtain.
"What are you waiting for? Go and answer the door!" she whispered smiling.
"Glad you're keeping a straight mind, I was panicking..." whispered Remus.
"I could tell..." Accalia smiled as Remus quickly kissed her and opened the door.
Harry stood in his Quidditch pyjamas and robe, breathing slightly faster than usual and looking rather worried.
"What is it, Harry?" asked Remus when he saw Harry's expression.
"Professor Snape has got everybody in the castle up and out looking for Accalia. She's gone missing," explained Harry.
"Oh..." said Remus smiling.
"You don't seem very concerned," said Harry suspiciously.
"Come on Harry! She's mature adult, I am sure she's fine," said Remus.
"You're probably right but still...You should come and help us look for her. You know what Snape is like," said Harry.
"Okay, let me get dressed and I'll meet you in the great hall," smiled Remus.
Closing the door Remus turned back into his room and Harry walked off down the corridor.
"I didn't think Remus would sleep in the nude..." thought Harry before shivering at the thought.
"That was close..." sighed Remus before stopping abruptly...
"Not really,"mumbled Accalia climbing out from the curtains, doing up the buttons of Remus's shirt that she had slipped on.
Accalia did up the last button of the shirt and looked up at Remus. Remus was smiling slightly lustfully, his eyebrows raised and his eyes looking Accalia up and down.
"What?" smiled Accalia innocently.
Remus's shirt hung loosely over Accalia's petite but perfectly curved figure. He swallowed hard and then advanced on her, engulfing her in his arms and kissing her passionately.
They both fell back on to the bed, Remus's hands travelling all over Accalia's body.
"Remus!" exclaimed Accalia in surprise, "What's got into you?"
"You. You've got under my skin, into my mind, heart and soul," breathed Remus gazing into Accalia's eyes.
Accalia smiled as Remus's large hand glided up her thigh,
"Remus...You are supposed to be getting dressed to go and find me..."
"Mmmmm,"agreed Remus, his hands resting on Accalia's middle," What are you going tell Severus?"
"Well, I could..." began Accalia smiling, circling her finger on Remus's chest, "I could tell him that the one person he dislikes the most," Accalia kissed Remus on the lips, "has had his evil way with his innocent little sister."
"Don't you even dare," smiled Remus, "Plus you're hardly innocent."
"I know it, you know it but I don't think Severus even noticed I was a grown woman until he saw my bra on my bed the other day! He probably thinks I'm still a virgin!" laughed Accalia.
"We both know that's definitely not true!" smiled Remus wickedly.
"Come on," said Accalia sitting up, "Time to face the music, as they say."
"What?" exclaimed Remus sitting up, "You mean tell people? About us?"
"No! Not just yet. I want to keep it our little secret until we're ready, now's not the time," reassured Accalia finding her underwear and pulling it on, "But until then, I thought we'd have some fun."
Remus stood up behind Accalia and once again enveloped her in his strong arms. He softly kissed her on the neck. Accalia turned her head and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"Come on," Accalia repeated handing Remus his trousers, "Let's go."
--
Remus and Accalia walked to the great hall both a little apprehensive, Remus for having to explain why it took him so long to get there and Accalia to tell, or rather lie, about her whereabouts.
"What are you going to say?" asked Remus.
"I'll deal with it when the time comes," replied Accalia.
"Right...Better come up with something quick then," said Remus uneasily as they walked through the large doors of the great hall.
Severus Snape stood at the front of the hall, the whole teaching staff and the fifth and sixth years standing around him.
"I want the entire castle and the grounds searched. No place left unturned," announced Snape.
"I don't think that going to be necessary," called Accalia over the crowd.
"Accalia? Accalia!" exclaimed Snape making his way through the circle of people.
Snape wrapped his arms around her. "Where have you been? I have been so worried. Where were you?" said Snape in one breath.
"Severus...I...I can't breath," murmured Accalia, her voice muffled by his chest.
There was quiet laughter heard from the students. They were surprised by how a normally wooden, unemotional Professor Snape was capable of showing such... affection.
"Sorry, but I was so worried, you just disappeared," explained Severus, "Where were you?"
"I went...for a walk and before I knew it I had walked to the border of Hosmeade. You know how I get, I loose track of time. I got back...and saw Remus by the entrance of the school. He told me what was happening. I didn't think you would get so worried. I am a grown woman, you know?" clarified Accalia.
Snape eyed Accalia and Remus suspiciously before saying,
"Sorry for the inconvenience Albus, the students can return to their beds now."
"Right, everybody back to bed and have a good nights sleep...well what's left of it," said Dumbledore ushering the sleepy and rather annoyed students out of the hall.
"At least its Sunday tomorrow, we can have a lie in," said an exhausted looking Ron.
"Yeah," agreed Hermione yawning.
Snape watched the students and the teachers, including a reluctant Remus, leave before turning back to Accalia,
"Right, I want the truth now. Where were you?"
"What? I already told you Severus," said Accalia.
"I know you're lying. Accalia, this is very out of character for you. You wouldn't find me doing anything like what you have just done in front of the whole school," ranted Snape.
"The WHOLE school wouldn't have known about me being 'missing' if you hadn't woke them up at three in the bloody morning!" shouted Accalia becoming infuriated.
"I was worried! Can't a brother be worried about his little sister?" snapped Snape.
"Not when his 'little' sister is a twenty-eight year old woman! I can look after myself!" fumed Accalia.
"Maybe so...Then I have just made a fool of myself getting everybody up in the middle of night! Just because you go off in a...in a huff!" barked Snape sitting down on the steps up to the teachers table.
"And once again I successfully make the great Severus Snape look bad!" sneered Accalia.
Accalia stopped and looked at her brother. Snape sat, not moving, breathing softly with his head in his hands. She sat on the steps next to him.
"Severus," whispered Accalia quietly, "I know you're just being a caring brother but you have to admit you can be a bit overbearing and overprotective..."
Snape looked up at Accalia. He was about to argue when Accalia started speaking again,
"I know we have hardly seen each other since Mother died, but I'm not an eighteen year old girl anymore. You've got to let me get on with my life, let me make my own mistakes."
"Look what happened to you when I wasn't there. I could've..."
"You couldn't have done anything to stop what happened. I've always believed even from the start, even through the hard times that it was fate that that werewolf bit me. You may not want to hear it but I know it was meant to be."
Snape smiled slightly, placed his hand behind Accalia's head,
"I really can't believe you're my sister. You're so brave, kind, caring, clever..."
"You sound surprised!" joked Accalia
"...And beautiful! You are too lovely to be my sister. You deserve to be loved by a good young man who appreciates you. Not somebody like...like..."
"Like Remus..." sighed Accalia.
"Promise me Accalia you'll not get involved with him...Promise me!" pleaded Snape.
"I'm not going to stop being friends with him. He's such a lovely bloke if only you gave him a chance. You have to forget the past, you're not teenagers anymore.
"I can't promise anything," sulked Snape reminding Accalia of when they were children when her stepfather told him off.
"Well, at least be civil to him," said Accalia pulling Snape in to a hug. Snape stayed stiff for a few moments before settling in to the embrace.
"You really should warn before you do that!" smirked Snape.
"Time for bed I think," yawned Accalia, "Oh, by the way, do you know where Tonks is? I thought she was staying here but she didn't come and look for me, did she? Some friend she is!
Accalia eyed her warily brother as he went a shade of pink at the sound of Tonks name.
"Um, no...I think she went to stay at the Three Broomsticks for the night," explained Snape uneasily.
"Right..." murmured Accalia doubting her brother's sincerity. Something told her that she would have to start asking Tonks some private questions next time Accalia saw her.
Well that was an interesting chapter... sort of. Well what I mean is that there wasn't much Remus/Accalia stuff was there? I promise there will be a lot more in the next chapter and it will be longer as well so I hope you all will be happy! Oh and some interrogation of Tonks as well. I wonder where SHE was that night?
As always please R & R and of course any ideas are always welcome.
Thanks
