Chapter Thirteen: Midnight Surprise 2


Hermione's legs were intertwined with Remus, and her head lay on his chest. She listened to his steady heartbeat and felt a warm feeling in her stomach. His arms were wrapped around her and she had never felt this happy. She felt the hardness of his body beneath her and she began to feel herself becoming aroused once more. She turned around and began kissing him and he was startled by the assault. He gripped her shoulders and positioned her over him. She slowly lowered herself onto him and he heard her make small moans as he filled her up for the umpteenth time that night. She was hot and warm around him and her sheath gripped him tightly. They began moving in a slow and steady rhythm until she began chanting his name and dug her fingernails in his back. He released his essence into her and she cried out once more and collapsed on his chest. He kissed her forehead.

"I love you, Hermione,"

"And I love you, Remus,"


The night seemed to go on forever. They made love, ate food, drank wine, slept, and talked. It was perfect. She felt like a princess, she felt as though she was in a dream. She never wanted to wake up from this dream. It was her perfect life, but outside the enchanted bubble was her real world, which was falling apart, and the only thing that held her together was Remus. He was the only person who loved her for everything.

"I hate my grandmother," she said softly. He pushed away some hair from her face and sighed.

"I know, Hermione,"

"I really wish that she could disappear…" she murmured. She was once again wrapped in his arms.

"I wish the whole world could disappear so I could have you all to myself," She smiled.

"Me too,"

"Hermione?"

"Yes, Remus?"

"Do you regret being with me?" he asked quietly.

"Never, Remus, you've changed my life for the better,"

"You have done the same for me,"

"Can I ask you something?"

"What,"

"Do you think we will ever have a family?" she asked wistfully. He sighed.

"I hope, with every fiber in my being that we will have a family," he said. She nodded.

"That's good enough for me,"


Hermione was back home, sad that Lupin was gone, but happy that they had shared so many intimate moments only a few days ago. Her grandmother was still getting on her nerves, but she tried to keep her cool for a while and keep her mouth shut.

Hermione and her parents were sitting to a meal when her grandmother came in.

"Mother," her father said warmly. She smiled at her son and then cast cold glances towards her daughter in law and her granddaughter.

"Hello, son," she said pulling a chair out to sit down. "I've been meaning to ask you," she began.

"Ask what mother?" he asked.

"Did you get those divorce papers fixed up yet?" Hermione felt as though someone slapped her in the face. She saw her mother's hand tremble. Her father clenched his fork tightly in his hadn't.

"We're working on it mother, it's not something you should be worrying about," he said. She sighed.

"Yes it is something that I should worry about, when will you get rid of these things?" she asked scornfully. Hermione clenched her teeth but said nothing. Her mother's eyes welled up with tears and she rose up.

"Please, excuse me," she said. Hermione saw her father open his mouth to stop her but one look from his mother shut him up. Why was he so afraid? She wondered. Her mother left the dining room and Hermione sighed. Her mother was going through so much now, and her stupid father wasn't even helping one bit. She loved both of her parents, but they were both just acting so ridiculous. This whole idea of divorce was ridiculous. She sighed and looked over at her grandmother, wishing she could punch her in the face. She looked at her father and sighed inwardly.


Hermione had a splitting head ache. It came out of nowhere, and she cursed.

"Damn," she muttered. She had just woke up and was brushing her teeth when the pain began screaming in her brain and immediately she ran for the medicine. After she took two pills she decided to go downstairs and make some coffee before she headed out to work. She saw her mother sitting in the kitchen and her father sitting across from her. They seemed to be in a serious conversation and when they saw Hermione, they both looked up.

"Hermione," her father said cheerily. She managed a smile and went over to the stove.

"Morning guys," she said.

"Morning," her mother replied. Her father cleared his throat.

"Your mother tells me that there's someone special in your life now," he said. She turned around and looked at them.

"Yes, there is," she replied. Her father smiled.

"Well, dear, I'm happy for you, when will we meet him?" he asked. Hermione sighed.

"I don't know exactly when,"

"Why don't you invite him for dinner tonight?" her mother asked.

"With grandmother around?" she asked. Her father shook his head.

"Yes, with grandmother around," he said. She sighed. She had no choice.

"Fine, I'll call him and tell him," she said. Her father nodded and smiled.

"Good,"

"Oh dear," she muttered under her breath. This was going to be an awkward night.
