Yet another chapter! They just keep coming! Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 13: Fireworks: Good and Bad
Accalia left the hall early after breakfast and walked down the corridor to her classroom when she heard footsteps behind her. She stopped suddenly and turned round.
"Who's there?" she called apprehensively, "Show yourself!"
She suddenly felt a presence behind her. The attacker's arm appeared around Accalia's neck. Accalia stamped on the person's foot, which loosened his grip on her neck and she elbowed her assailant hard in the stomach. As her assaulter stumbled backwards Accalia held him to the wall, her hand wrapped tightly around his throat.
Accalia breathing hard looked at her attacker before quickly letting go of his neck in surprise.
"Malfoy?" breathed Accalia.
"Didn't see that coming..." said Malfoy.
"How dare you? You can't just attack people like that!" fumed Accalia.
"I thought you liked it rough," drawled Malfoy.
"What?" exclaimed Accalia in disgust at his words.
"I've seen you with him, skulking about. Other people might not notice but I've seen or rather heard you with Lupin. It's disgusting!" snapped Malfoy.
"You're the one that's disgusting! Creeping around the castle, sticking your nose into other people's business!" snapped Accalia back.
"Come on, you know you are too good for him! You need a real man!" drawled Malfoy backing Accalia against the Transfiguration room door.
"Remus is a real man..." spat Accalia.
"Who's half wolf!"
"If you're not forgetting I am too!"
"Yeah," whispered Malfoy pressing his body into Accalia's, "But you are so much more appealing."
Accalia groaned in revulsion and moved out from beneath Malfoy. Grabbing her arm Malfoy spun Accalia back around to face him.
"Nobody walks away from me!" snarled Malfoy.
Accalia raised her hand to slap him but he caught her wrist. Accalia was strong but Malfoy seemed to find the strength to stop her.
"I don't think so," drawled Malfoy.
"Let go of me!" snapped Accalia.
"I will but first answer me a question," smiled Malfoy evilly, "Do you actually enjoy doing it with Lupin or do you just fuck him cos you feel sorry for him?"
"I don't... fuck him, we make love because I love him and he loves me," whispered Accalia slowly.
Malfoy stepped backwards away from Accalia.
"What?" whispered Draco losing any colour that had been in his pale cheeks.
"I'm in love with him," hissed Accalia intrigued by his reaction.
"First I find out you're a werewolf and now...now you're in love with the person that Professor Snape hates the most in the world," smirked Malfoy.
"So what are you going to do, tell everybody? Tell them then! I don't care anymore! I'll gladly let everyone know that I am in love with the most fantastic man! And as for being a werewolf...I don't need other people's approval...or even their sympathy. So fine, go and tell people..." spat Accalia boldly.
Malfoy stood on the spot staring at Accalia in disbelief.
Accalia walked over her classroom door and turned the handle.
"And Mr Malfoy," said Accalia turning her head to him, "I really don't think you should reveal my 'secrets' because I don't think your parents and Dumbledore will be very happy to hear about how you tried to attack a teacher."
Malfoy looked at Accalia angrily, his nostrils flared and his face turning red. He knew she was right. Malfoy turned on his heel and left, fuming.
Accalia rushed into the room slamming the door behind her. She leaned back against the wall and holding her head, fell into tears.

Remus passed down the corridor, girls giggling as he passed. Not that he minded but he wasn't about to get big headed about it. He had all he wanted in Accalia. He'd never felt like that about anyone and he never going to give it up. One thing he needed to find out though, why was he looking and feeling young again?
He walked up to the entrance to Dumbledore's office and said the password. He entered the office that he had entered so many times as a teacher and a student.
"Remus. What brings you into my company this lunchtime?" enquired Dumbledore biting into a cheese sandwich.
"I wanted to talk to you about...well you've probably noticed how I've changed over the last week," murmured Remus.
"I think everybody has, especially the young women around the school," smiled Dumbledore sipping his tea, "So, what do you want to know?"
"Why?" said Remus, "Why have I started looking and, well feeling younger?"
Dumbledore didn't say anything but rose from his seat and walked over to his large bookcase that went around his office. Running his long fingers along the spine of the books that seemed to quiver under his touch.
He suddenly pulled out a thin book with the title, 'Legends of the werewolf.' The book looked hundreds of years old, nearly falling apart in Dumbledore's hand.
"This is an old muggle book Minerva gave me one year for my birthday. If I remember correctly it may shed some light on what is happening to you," stated Dumbledore.
He set the book down on the desk and flicked through its pages.
"Aha! Found it!" exclaimed Dumbledore.
Remus sat forward and listened intently as Dumbledore began reading from the page,
"According to legend if a werewolf finds their true love then it is said that they begin to discover they undergo significant changes. Werewolves find that they feel less tired after transformation and begin to look their age again, even look younger..."
"How come I have never heard of this before?" said Remus overwhelmed.
"Like I said it is a muggle book, nobody in the wizarding world would not have taken any notice of it. Plus there was no proof, it had never happened before...till now," smiled Dumbledore knowingly.
Remus stood up and walked to the door.
"Remus? Is there anything else?" asked Dumbledore.
"No...No I don't think so," grinned Remus happily as he left.
Accalia sat her desk as her sixth year class wrote down notes from a book.
"This is so boring!" she heard Colin Creevey whisper to Ginny Weasley.
"Shut up, Colin!" hissed Ginny, "I don't think she feels very well."
Accalia stared out at the mid-morning November sky, tapping her quill on the table.
"Um, Miss?" came a voice. Ginny stepped up to the desk.
"Hmmm? Oh! Yes Ginny?" murmured Accalia.
"I've finished," smiled Ginny.
"Well done Ginny," smiled Accalia wearily.
"Are you alright, Miss?" enquired Ginny.
"Yeah. I'm fine. Just a bit...tired, I suppose," lied Accalia thinking back to her confrontation with Draco Malfoy.
Accalia glanced at her watch. It was the end of the lesson and she dismissed the class.
Remus suddenly appeared from the behind the door.
"Accalia? Are you alright?" said Remus as Accalia looked up at him, tears in her eyes.
"Remus..." whispered Accalia. Before she knew it Remus arms were around her.
"What's happened?" whispered Remus smoothing Accalia's hair.
"Malfoy...He knows...about us," sobbed Accalia, "How does he always find out?"
"Because he's a rotten, meddlesome little bastard," soothed Remus, "Is...is he going to tell anyone?"
"No...I put him off...I said that Dumbledore wouldn't be impressed that he attacked a..."
"Attacked who?" asked Remus pulling back to look at her, "Attacked who Accalia?"
"Me," murmured Accalia.
"What!?" fumed Remus standing up, "He attacked you? I'll kill him!"
"No, Remus don't! Please...don't," pleaded Accalia, "Just leave it. He's not worth it!"
"I...I can't. He's hurt the woman I love. I'm not going to let him get away with it!" raged Remus pacing the room.
Accalia grabbed Remus's arm. Remus stopped and looked at her.
"Please Remus. I just want to forget about it. I won't let him ruin anything. Believe me he'll get what's coming to him, sooner or later," smiled Accalia.
"Okay," smiled Remus wrapping his arms around Accalia.
Remus wiped the tears from her cheeks with his large hands and kissed her forehead. They stood there silently until Remus suddenly remembered his news.
"Accalia I have some remarkable news," began Remus before he explained to her what Dumbledore had told him.
"Wow!" whispered Accalia smiling as Remus finished his story, "It's sound like something from a fairy-tale."
"It kind of does doesn't?" laughed Remus.
All of a sudden something passed or rather flew past the window, casting a shadow over the whole room. A loud roar and a thunderous thud followed, the floor and walls shaking.
"No...He wouldn't..." exclaimed Accalia hurrying out of the classroom.
"Who wouldn't do what?" asked Remus rushing after her.
--
Accalia dashed outside to see a forty-foot black dragon settled on the ground.
"Yes, he would..." sighed Accalia shaking her head.
Students and teachers were leaning out of windows and piling out of doors, pushing each other out of the way.
"Accalia, is that..." began Remus as he ran up behind her.
"Yes," sighed Accalia, "Yes, that's my father."
Dismounting the great beast by a long ladder hanging from it's back was a man with untidy shoulder length black hair, splashed with grey. His eyes, hidden behind round, blue rimmed glasses, were a deep green, his nose had a slight in the middle where it had probably been broken a couple of times and a thick bristly goatee beard framed his thin lips.
The man wore a shabby, black robe and cloak covered with small holes, patches of dark fabric and seemingly singed by fire. His brown leather boots were terribly worn and the once thick soles were worn down to within an inch of their life. Although he looked no more than forty-five, Accalia's father was well into his sixties.
Suddenly the man lost his footing and fell five foot to the ground. Accalia ran over to him and helped him sit up.
"Father, are you alright?" asked Accalia handing him his glasses that had fallen off.
"Accalia?" muttered the man placing the spectacles back on his face, "Accalia!"
"Why on earth did you decide to ride Lorcan all the way here?" exclaimed Accalia helping her father to stand up.
"I wanted to make an entrance," he smiled.
"You've certainly done that!" said Accalia.
"Here he comes," sighed her father glancing behind Accalia.
Severus Snape appeared through the crowd that had formed. His expression was halfway between anger and total embarrassment.
"Greetings Severus," called Accalia's father.
"Greetings Cassius," sighed Snape shaking his hand.
"Cassius?" whispered Remus to Accalia.
"Severus refuses to call him anything else. My Mother and my Father never got remarried after Severus's Father died. I suppose that's why my last name is Snape, not Nix," whispered Accalia back.
"Accalia Nix..." whispered Remus under his breath.
"Come on Father, let's get inside. It's freezing out here," smiled Accalia.
"Everybody get back inside...Now!" barked Snape.
"What about the dragon?" asked Remus as they began walking back to the castle.
"Lorcan will find somewhere in the forest to stay," said Accalia, "Oh, Father? This is Remus Lupin. He teaches Defence Against The Dark Arts here at Hogwarts."
"Good to meet you Remus. Cassius Nix's the name, taming Dragons is my game," said Cassius shaking Remus's hand.
"Good to meet you Cassius," smiled Remus laughing nervously.
"Remus! Where are we going?" laughed Accalia as Remus dragged her up the ever-changing staircases.
"You'll see," grinned Remus cheekily.
They finally reached a door that led to the Astronomy tower. Remus stopped outside the door and took hold of Accalia's small hand.
"Close your eyes," whispered Remus turning the handle.
"Remus..." whispered Accalia suspiciously.
"Please," pleaded Remus with puppy-dog eyes.
"Fine!" smiled Accalia closing her eyes in trepidation.
Remus led her through the door.
"Keep your eyes closed," said Remus as he let go of her hand.
Accalia heard Remus whisper incantations under his breath. Accalia could sense light appear around her. Remus came up behind Accalia, his hand settling on her upper arms.
"Can I open them now?" asked Accalia.
"Yes, I think so," whispered Remus, his warm breath on Accalia's neck making her shiver.
Accalia opened her eyes to see the room covered with twinkling candles, from floor to ceiling. A large couch sat in the middle of the room facing the main large window.
"It's wonderful Remus," smiled Accalia.
"I thought we could watch the fireworks in peace, just the two of us," breathed Remus as they sat on the couch.
"Won't people wonder where we are? By people I mean my Father and Severus," asked Accalia resting her head on Remus's shoulder.
"Your brother will be too busy shouting at the children and your Father seemed to be deep in conversation with Albus," chuckled Remus wrapping his arm around her.
"I suppose," whispered Accalia.
"Talking of your Father, does he know of your lycanthropy?" asked Remus.
"Um, no, he doesn't," said Accalia thoughtfully, "I'm going to have to tell him haven't I?
"I should think you'll have to," said Remus, "Let's not think about it now though."
Soon the fireworks began lighting up the dark sky with colours, red dragons soared through the sky and blue fish swam through the clouds.
Remus watched the colours play over the pale but perfect skin of Accalia's face, and smiled at the way her mouth curved up at the corners as she watched the fireworks.
"I love you," whispered Remus resting his head on Accalia's head.
"I know," breathed Accalia.
Accalia felt Remus pull away slightly. She sat up straight and looked at him questioningly.
"What's the matter?" she asked looking at the rejected expression on Remus's face.
"I said I love you and you just said 'I know'!" sulked Remus.
"That because I do know that you love me and you know I love you...don't you?" said Accalia sincerely.
Remus didn't answer.
"There are so many ways you can show that you love someone without having to say it. Like you doing this for me..." whispered Accalia glancing around the room.
"I always want you to know that I love you, I'll never stop loving you," explained Remus.
"I know...I love you too!" grinned Accalia, "What do I have to do...Do I need to show you?"
"Depends on what you had in mind," smiled Remus audaciously.
Accalia sat astride of Remus and moved closely into him, her chest pressing into his. She leant down and kissed him slowly. Accalia ground her hips into his steadily. She suddenly felt his arousal rise between her legs.
"You like that, huh?" whispered Accalia into Remus's ear.
"Yes..." breathed Remus gruffly his hands sliding up Accalia's back.
Accalia's hand slid down to Remus's excitement that was heavily restrained by his trousers. Remus moaned deeply and slipped his hand up her skirt as Accalia slid her hand up and down his length.
"Don't ever leave me," whimpered Remus kissing Accalia's collarbone.
"That'll never happen, I promise," sighed Accalia her hand in Remus's hair.
As the fireworks soared through the ebony sky outside, other fireworks were made inside.
Another chapter finished. Did you like it? Just starting a new chapter. Should be up soon as I have more time cos I have just got one more exam left, Graphics! This chapter is one of my longest yet...I think! Over 2500 word! Right, next chapter. Interesting talks with Cassius, more Remus/Accalia and maybe another confrontation with Draco! Just thinking, it's November in the story so we'll be getting close to Christmas. Something tells me there'll be a stay at Grimmauld Place in store. Oh, the fun and the drama to be had!
Thanks again,
