Chapter 34: Waking Up

As I expected as soon as I started to wake up I was in pain, a lot of pain. I whimpered moving off my back onto my side bringing my legs up and hugging them to my chest.

I could tell I wasn't in the shrieking shack anymore, the bed I was in was softer, and I had a blanket around me. I inhaled sharply from the pain, I was sore all over; my shoulder was killing me, almost too literally.

Seconds after I felt a hand on my forehead "Piper…love," I heard him say.

I reached out for him needing him more then anything. I didn't care about the jolt of pain I got from moving my arm.

"Remus" I rasped. Was that my voice? It was so…horse.

"Relax Love, it's alright." He soothed.

I opened my eyes to find I was in Remus' bed with him kneeling on the floor beside me. He didn't look too bad so I guessed I was out for a couple of days.

I couldn't help wonder what he did after he transformed, and how I got here. He just stared into my eyes though from his spot on the floor.

"Remus…how…how did I get here?" I asked.

"…I brought you back up here...when I was able to." He answered but he was still staring at me like he wasn't really paying attention to what I was saying.

"How long…?" I asked my voice not getting any better.

"Almost 4 days" he answered.

I was curios now…what did he see in my eyes? Why was my voice like this…? And for the love of god why am I so hungry?

Ok I know I've been asleep for 4 days but I've never been this hungry before.

I wanted to get up looking around I wondered how I would accomplish this. I moved back onto my back wincing when I stretched my legs out.

"Why am I so sore?" I asked looking over at Remus, his eyes showed guilt and worry.

"…I'm sorry…Moony got…out of control." He said looking down in shame.

I thought about it…did he…when I was…he wouldn't. Moony said he didn't want to hurt me. Would he do that while I was sleeping, helpless?

"…did he…do anything to me…when I was out?" I asked licking my dry lips.

"What! Of course not…I wouldn't let that happen, he only laid with you…after you passed out. That's all; it was before that…when he was marking you." he said.

"That wasn't your fault Remus…" I sighed. I knew he would blame himself if I got hurt. Well when I got hurt.

"God I'm hungry" I said pulling myself up and leaning against the headboard (noticing I was still naked by the way) I put my hands on my hips feeling bad pains there.

He chuckled at my words getting up and going over to his desk he had in there. I quickly looked at my hips while he was turned away and saw huge bruises in the shape of hands. Shuddering when I remembered how I got them.

I pulled the blanket to cover me and looked over to see what he had. He was smiling as he carried over a tray of food.

A Lot of food! I grinned at him as he set it down over my lap and sat next to me.

"Wow…that's a lot of food. Are you going to help me eat it?" I asked it was piled with pancakes, bacon, hash browns, fruit, with a glass of orange juice,

"Trust me Love…you're going to eat it all." He said smirking like he knew something I didn't.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked eyeing him suspiciously.

"Well something those books you've been reading left out…werewolves tend to eat a lot after the full moon. Even though you have yet to transform, Dear, you are in fact a werewolf and it is after the full moon." He explained.

"…wait you knew I was reading those books?" I asked.

"Well yeah…you weren't as discreet as you thought" he said I glared playfully at him and threw a grape at him.

"You know you shouldn't do that with those eyes…it doesn't suit them" he said picking up half a toast and biting it.

"…what's wrong with my eyes?" I asked rubbing an eye.

"…they're white" he hesitated.

I gasped and moved to get up but there were two things stopping me, the tray…and the stupid pains. I could move slowly but that was it, a little bit at a time.

"Just lay back, relax and eat. I'll call Madam Pomfrey when you're finished eating so she can check you. I…I didn't let anyone near you…when we got here." He said sheepishly.

I sighed…I wasn't going to be moving anytime soon, I picked up a piece of bacon biting half of it while I glared at him.

"You do know I'm gonna have to get up and out of this bed sometime right?" I asked after I had finished all the bacon, it was so good! I couldn't believe how hungry I still was though. Remus reached over cutting a piece of an already buttered pancake almost drowning in syrup and holding it to my mouth.

"Strawberry syrup, you favourite" he said I looked at him wondering why he was avoiding my question.

I opened my mouth though, I was still hungry. Oh my god! These pancakes were HEAVEN!!

"Oh wow….these are…so good" I said drawing out the So.

"Are those chocolate chips in the middle?" I asked.

I knew the answer to that question though, Remus absolutely LOVED chocolate; it was his cure for everything so it stood to reason he would put it in just about everything.

"Yeah I asked a little favour from the house elves." He said winking at me.

"…so what's going to happen now?" I asked with all the reading I did…I still had no idea what I was in for.

"We need to wait for your eyes to return to normal" he said not looking at me and cutting my pancakes.

"It will take longer…if you refuse to take the Wolfs bane" he said.

"My eyes will go back to normal…what does Mooney say?" I asked. I knew I still had to worry about the wolf also and if I didn't listen…well lets just say there is a reason there isn't that many female wolves.

"He doesn't want you to take it. Your eyes will…from now on for maybe a few decades have white flecks in them. They won't be too noticeable but they will be there" he said.

"Alright…so my eyes, my voice…what else?" I asked there had to be more then that.

"Well…I don't know much about female wolfs, your hunger is going to be…substantial" he said with a little smirk as he looked down at my plate which was almost empty.

"Shut up" I said putting the last of the pancake in my mouth.

All that was left now was a toast, a few hash browns, and a little bit of orange juice.

"Ok…is it at all possible for me to go to that bathroom?" I asked.

"It all depends if you think you can make it there?" he said taking the tray away.

"Or if your ok with me carrying you" he said standing by the bed.

I was about to nod when the bedroom door burst open.

XOXO
