"Hermione" Remus said motioning her over to him as everyone was leaving the room. "I need to speak to you." He turned away from her and positioned some papers on his desk waiting for her.

Hermione left Harry and Ron and told them that she would catch up with them later. Butterflies leapt and spun in her stomach. It felt like it was doing flip-flops. Did I do something wrong? Oh, look at his beautiful chest. What did I do? Look at the way he moves his hair out of his eyes. Am I getting a failing grade? Her brain battled the troubling confusing emotions that moved from terror to passion and back. She wasn't sure what to think. "Yes Professor?" She asked quietly.

"I think that you are very intelligent, and if you wouldn't mind I think it would do you some good to be taught higher, more advanced spells" Remus said looking into her eyes, searching for some kind of reaction.

"I...I...I don't know what to say." Hermione said nervously.

"The spells and things I am teaching the other children are to easy for you. You need a challenge and I am sure that you would enjoy one." Remus said taking a step towards her.

Her heart fluttered as she saw him step closer. "I...I don't know" Hermione said slowly. Of course I know she thought I want to spend lots of time with him! Forget what I said before about him being my teacher and I have no feelings for him what so ever. Of course I have feelings for him!

Remus strode towards her and placed his hand on her shoulder, Hermione's knees weakened at his touch, his warm, strong, hand on her shoulder. "Hermione, please think about it, this would do you good. You are very smart and I know that you want to learn more."

Hermione grinned, knowing that she did want to learn more, and him teaching this would be an added bonus. "Alright Professor, I'll do it."

"Good" Remus said removing his hand from her shoulder and smiling brightly, "Meet me here around 7, I will be waiting. Bring your wand of course, some parchment and a quill."

Hermione started to walk out the door when she heard his wonderful voice once again.

"Oh and Hermione?" Remus said stopping her from leaving.

"Yes Professor?" She said turning back to look at him.

"Call me Remus." He said his eyes sparkling.
