AN: Yay, I'm back. A little sooner then expected, but it's all the same to me. Have a head cold right now. Rather annoying thing actually. I've taken some time to look over the previous chapters and all I can say, damn…didn't know I made them so short. Sorry bout that, I'll try to make them a little longer from now on if I can.

Very happy that you are all still enjoying this, I know I'm enjoying writing it. I had the idea floating around in my head for a long time, and now it's finally coming out.

And now, onto the chapter (a really fluffy chapter at that)

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Chapter Seven

(October. 10th, 1976)

Remus could never remember a time in which he was more happy. He had good friends, good grades, and best of all a Girlfriend. They may have only met a few weeks previous, but…they were apparently destined to be together (Lily had even went as far to call them Soul-mates). It had taken less then a day for the entire school to find out that Kit was his girlfriend, and under protective watch by his friends. Much like Lily, Kit seemed to have a problem with people being less then happy about her Muggle Heritage.

She spent more time at meals now, something that Remus was relieved about. The girl looked like she was starving from as little she ate (Sirius had pointed that out the first time she ate with them). Her small portions of food resulted in, Remus doing a very boyfriend-ly thing and heaping her plate full of food. Her unfinished portions always went to Peter.

Today, was the first Quidditch practice for James and Sirius. It might have been raining out, but Remus and Peter still sat in the stands to watch. Remus was fairly certain that Kit and Lily were off somewhere doing 'girl things'. At least that's what Lily said they would be doing after they declined James' offer to go off and watch the practice.

"They're good this year, going to pound Slytherin into the ground." Peter's voice interrupted his thoughts and musings. The slightly plump blonde haired boy was intently watching the practice. Peter was the biggest Quidditch fan in the world, and was always seen hanging around during practice. According to James this was because Peter's broom couldn't support his weight so he couldn't play no matter how much he wanted to.

"Like they did last year and the year before that." Remus finally said, glancing upwards to the figures that darted and floated around on broomsticks. "I don't understand how they can do that without getting sick." Ah yes, the reason that Remus wasn't up there on a broomstick as well. Flying made him sick, he couldn't stand it. Every time he went up in the air it felt as if his stomach floated away (not a very good feeling in his mind). It also didn't help matters that to fall off a broom usually meant broken bones or death, something that Remus wasn't a fan of.

A sigh would escape his lips, even if he and Kit spent hours at a time together being away from her made him slightly antsy. He didn't like it…she was so small and sad. She needed him there to protect her and make her smile. He liked that feeling.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

After Dinner, Lily had dragged Kit back up to the Gryffindor tower. Kit still wasn't that comfortable with the sixth year girl, or any other of Remus' friends…but that didn't seem to bother them. Lily had been all to happy about telling Kit about how she originally hated James' guts and wished he would have vanished off the face of the earth. She also enjoyed telling Kit that she had James' figured out all wrong, and when they actually got to know one another, things just…worked out. The purpose of her story, had been that no relationship is easy (even if at the moment Kit's relationship with Remus was a piece of cake). Lily told Kit, that her limp hair and pale complexion would have to go. No can do.

Thus the reason for going up to the dormitory…Lily was going to give Kit a make-over, and tell her all about the group of guy's that Kit was going to be hanging around all because she was dating Remus. Lily said that Remus came with 'baggage' and that 'baggage' was a group of really good friends. Lily was ecstatic that there was going to be another girl in the group.

Now, they sat on Lily's bed in the sixth year girls room; surrounded by a bunch of muggle make-up (because apparently Lily couldn't stand how wizard make-up felt). Lily had pulled Kit's hair out of her face with a hair tie and was now working on trying to get Kit's pale complexion creamy.

"I never really cared about looking good before, but being with James…I just want to look good for him." Lily explained, while dabbing some sort of cream on Kit's face.

"Doesn't he like the way you look without make-up?" Was the question that Kit voiced, not really understanding why a person should put themselves through hell just to make themselves look better for a boyfriend.

"Of course he does, but you have to admit that James is a very good looking bloke. Meaning that every girl in the school is after him, even if they know I'm with him."

"So, you do this to make yourself stand out?" Lily nodded with a grin on her face. Kit was really trying to hate this, honestly she was. However, it was far to fun. She had never really made friends before, and now she suddenly had plenty of friends just because she was dating Remus. At the thought of him, she wondered if he'd like her make-up, would he even notice at all?

"It's fun though, you can make yourself look different every day of the week just by the shade of make-up you choose. "

"Do you think Remus will like it?"

Lily grinned, and used a brush to sweep some blush on Kit's cheeks. "I think he'll love it. Won't even know what hit him."

The rest of the hour was spent talking as Lily finished off Kit's make-up and hair. The two girls spoke about everything, from the Muggle music they liked, to the fact that Sirius needed to get himself a steady girlfriend before his playboy ways caught up with him. Lily told her how cute of a couple that Kit and Remus made, and also went about gossiping about how a few of the sixth year Ravenclaw girls were jealous of Kit for snagging Remus.

Once Kit had relaxed a bit, she was pretty sure that there was nothing better then sitting there getting a make-over and talking about everything and nothing to Lily Evans. She finally felt like she belonged somewhere, and was pretty sure that this would be one of her best years at Hogwarts.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Remus was playing Wizards Chess with James, while Sirius was busy cooking up the groups next prank with Peter off in some corner. James was still a mess from the Quidditch game, but he didn't hesitate to bring out the Chess board, simply stating that Lily liked the wind-blown look of his hair. Although, James' wind-blown hair didn't help him from loosing horribly at Chess. So far over half of his pieces were chopped up off to the side of the table, with Remus's pieces were all doing a slightly odd victory dance that he had charmed on them.

Halfway though the game, James brought up the subject of their girl-friends. "I wonder what they are doing, I mean…what are 'girl-things' anyway?" It seemed that James was having snogging withdrawal, which for teenage boys wasn't that uncommon.

"They're probably gossiping or something…although I don't really see Kit as someone who gossips."

"Kit doesn't seem like the type to do a lot of things."

Remus arched a brow, watching for a moment as one of the tiny figures on the board that was left sliced into another figure. "What's that suppose to mean?"

"It's just…she is a tad, withdrawn don't you think?"

"Shy."

"Whatever you say…but still, something is wrong with her…don't get me wrong Moony she is a nice girl, and you two make a perfect couple. I just have the feeling that she's hiding something big." James said, collecting his smashed pieces in the palm of his hand.

"You really think she's hiding something?" Remus was concerned now, it also didn't help that James seemed to pick up on the fact before Remus did. He had just figured she was very shy, not withdrawn or hiding something…just shy. Could it be serious? Did she have a deadly disease or something? Was that why she wouldn't let herself open up to people?

"She acts just like you did before we found out of your…fear of the moon." With that, James shrugged. It was obviously to heavy a subject for him to want to think about anyway. "I'm sure it's nothing to big…I mean, we all know how dramatic girls can be…just last week Lily--"

"Lily what?"

At that, James simply just pointed to something behind Remus. There was a clearly stunned look on James face, and Remus wasn't sure if he wanted to turn around. Although, after about a moment of hesitation he did.

Lily and Kit were standing right behind them. Lily was her usual beautiful self, a large smile on her face showing off perfectly white teeth, and muggle clothes that fit her body like a glove. Kit on the other hand…

Remus hadn't been sure it was her at first, the only thing that gave it away was the fact she was so small. It was now apparent what 'girl-things' were. Kit had gotten a make-over, and a brilliant one at that. She stood there, with her hands clasped in front of her torso, a very unsure look on her face.

"Wow." Was the only thing Remus could say, in the past few weeks he only saw her with limp hair and a pale face…nothing to write home about. But now, while she wasn't a beauty queen…she definitely made his stomach fall to the floor and his heart to pound in his chest. Her hair was now curled in ringlets around her face, which was a pretty creamy color that almost shimmered if she turned her head just right.

"So…you like it?" She asked, teeth biting at her bottom lip, which upon farther inspection was covered in a frosty pink color. Remus nodded, and James behind him spoke up.

"I think you took the poor bloke's breath away, I can trust that my Lily did this?" Kit nodded, and Lily plopped down in James' lap.

"Your Lily certainly did do that, maybe I should get a job as a beautician…" The two of them bantered on, but Remus was only busy paying attention to one thing.

His Kitten looked very different, and thoughts of her hiding something and being shy flew out of his head. For now all he wanted to do was take her in his arms and drag her around the school pointing out to anyone that would listen that he was going out to her. Of course, he was fairly certain that would result in a trip to the nut-house. Although, a walk did sound good.

"Care for a walk around the castle while it's still light?" He asked, now finally able to form words in his mouth. Kit nodded, he stood up and offered his arm to her which she had accepted.

And then they were off. With James shouting "Have a good snog you two." behind them.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

They walked in silence, hands held together as they wandered around the grounds. The only way that it could have been better, would have been if the sky was clear and blue. At the current moment it was gray and looked as if at any second the clouds would burst open and rain would fall from the sky. Occasionally both Remus and Kit would sneak looks at each other. They were still in a state of shock about being 'officially' boyfriend and girlfriend, and honestly had no idea about what to do with themselves.

"It's a nice day." Remus pointed out as they headed around the lake, the giant squid waving one of its tentacles at them.

"It's cloudy and cold…" Kit pointed out, and then shrugged. "Although I suppose in some ways it is nice."

"Quiet."

"Serene"

"Indeed."

They grinned at that, and paused their walking under a rather large oak tree. Remus sat down on the cold ground first, and didn't hesitate when pulling Kit down on top of his lap. "You look stunning by the way."

"Thank-you, Lily did a good job…it was kind of nice too, talking to her I mean. She's actually a lot nicer then I thought she was."

"Not surprising, I'm sure she gossiped all about everyone and anything going on the castle, then asked if you finished your homework." Remus said, causing a small bubbly laughter to escape from Kit's lips. He grinned at that. "You should do that more often."

"Do what?"

"Laugh. It suits you." Remus told her, as he took her hands in his own, rubbing his thumb in the palm of her left hand.

"I'll keep that in mind. Although, I must admit I have grown fond of being called Sad Kitten by your friends." She told him, blue eyes flickering towards the lake for a moment before her body jumped slightly at the sound thunder rumbling in the distance.

"Do you want to go in? It will probably start raining soon and if we leave now we might make it in the castle dry."

Kit shook her head before, glancing into his eyes for a moment. "I have you to keep me warm if it starts to rain."

"Well, I won't do much good if I'm soaking wet too."

"True…but still, can we stay out here for a little longer?"

"As you wish."

A grin spread across her face, and Remus couldn't help himself; he moved rather quickly and before she knew it, his lips were on hers.

It was her first kiss. It was their first kiss as a couple.

They didn't even seem to notice as it started to rain, they were too deep in their own world.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Yay, another chapter said and done. This will be known as the chapter o'fluff. Nothing exciting other then their first kiss. Next chapter though, we can expect drama, action, crying, and other fun depressing stuff. Hopefully you enjoyed the fluff.
