Chapter 9

AN: Hello. I'm glad to say this story is back and running and I will hopefully have my next chapter up by the end of the week when I finish editing it. Enjoy. xXxXxXx

Recap:

Hermione looked between Sirius and Ginny before looking at their hands again; she gasped and jumped up to hug Ginny. Both girls screamed as they jumped up and down embracing each other.

Lily looked up to see the commotion and when she walked over to the girls with James following close behind and asked what they were shouting about, she soon began jumping and screaming along with them.

The three marauders looked on in bewilderment, not knowing why the girls were jumping up and down screaming.

Remus looked over at Sirius with a frown and said, "You're a bad influence on them."

"Me what about you and Hermione, snogging on the chairs, with no consideration for anyone who would like to keep their diner where it belongs. In their stomach." Sirius shot at Remus playfully.

"Do you guys know what the hell is wrong with these girls?" James asked looking really scared at the screaming girls.

"Nope, no idea Prongs." Remus said also looking really scared.

"I do, I think. I asked Ginny to go out with me and she said yes."

The marauders stared at Sirius shocked, he had never settled into a serious relationship, sure he had girlfriends but at most they only lasted a day or so before he got bored and moved on. Remus and James were curious as to how long the relationship between them would last considering they were getting on pretty well in the time that they had been there so far.

James walked over to Sirius and clapped him on the back in congratulations and telling him that he wished he and Ginny had a good relationship while they were together.

Remus on the other hand just offered his congratulations from the coach as he watched Hermione, Lily and Ginny talking excitedly on the other side of the common room where they had moved for a little more privacy to talk. He could feel the jealousy rising up in his chest, as Hermione hugged Ginny tightly; he wished it was him she was hugging and not Ginny. He of course knew these feelings were just the wolf acting up since Ginny was Hermione's sister.

Pushing the wolf down he looked over at his two friends who were engaged in a rousing game of wizard's chess in which James was loosing badly. Sighing Remus decided to help rescue one of his closest friends from the slaughtering that their other friend would undoubtedly bring if he did not interfere on the there game soon.

Over on the other side of the common room Hermione was talking excitedly with Lily and Ginny, she was happy that Ginny had finally gotten together with Sirius even if it was expected some time or another. She wanted them both to be happy, after everything Ginny went through and Sirius will go through they deserved a bit of Happiness in their lives.

Hermione looked over at Remus, and noticed he had just looked away from her, he looked really frustrated, she knew he was probably trying to control the wolf's jealousy, she had felt the exact same way earlier when she had seen Lily and Remus talking briefly. Sighing loudly she turned back to her friend and sister and began gossiping on how Sirius had asked her to go out with him, she was trying her hardest to keep he mind off the next full moon she knew Remus was worried as well since they would be alone together again, and if they decided to mate not even their friends would be able to keep them apart no matter what their human sides wanted.

It was three weeks until the next full moon and Remus was apprehensive about what was going to happen while they were together, they had agreed to putting off having sex for as long as possible while they were in their werewolf forms. They wanted their first time together to be special and not just a midnight tryst with two rampaging hormonal werewolves. They had agreed with the other marauders and Ginny that they could try and keep them apart as much as possible but if they became too much to handle they were to leave the two werewolves alone together.

Remus knew something would happen it was bound to, and Hermione knew it too, neither could control their minds while in the wolf form so how could they control their emotions.

After James and Sirius finished their games of wizards chess, which James lost catastrophically no matter how much help he got from his fellow marauder, Remus collapsed on the couch with his eyes closed he was planning on taking a small nap to ease his tiredness. He knew it was in the evening and he had no more classes so he could just go to bed, but it was still to early and he was just not tired enough to be able to fall into a deep sleep.

Minute's later small snores could be heard from the couch and Hermione looked over seeing Remus splayed out over the couch thoroughly exhausted to the point of un-consciousness, she smiled to herself realizing she was the only one who had noticed he fell asleep, Ginny and Sirius were engrossed in a heated discussion about Quiditich, while James was sitting in a corner with Lily talking quietly with the odd bout of laughter coming from Lily.

She quietly tip toed over to Remus on the couch, being careful not to attract any attention to herself as she went. When she reached the couch she sat down beside him snuggling u to his sleeping form while wandlessly accio'ing a book to read for a little while.

When the book reached her hand she opened to the page she had last finished and continued reading, a small smile graced her face at the low dominant growl that emitted from Remus throat as he wrapped his arm around Hermione's waist dragging her closer to him. Hermione realized that had anyone else heard that growl coming from Remus, even Ginny or the Marauders they might have found it threatening, she simply found it to be a claim to Dominance that she was his and nobody else's and what made Hermione smile was that he done it un consciously as if it was the most natural thing in the world to be protective of her.

Soon Hermione was lost to the land of dreams along with her boyfriend, she had not noticed the common room slowly empty of people as they headed up to bed for the night, or went to the library to finish last minute homework for tomorrow morning's classes.

The next morning Ginny woke early, she wanted to spend some alone time with Hermione before they were crowded with people, they never really got to talk alone for long any more and they wanted a chance to speak to their grandfather before breakfast about something concerning the future. Ginny dressed quickly and looked over at her sister's bed finding it empty she figured Hermione was already up and about in the common room. When she walked downstairs to find Hermione and Remus both asleep on the couch she smiled fondly at how well they seemed to be getting along together. Ginny knew Hermione had a crush on Remus from back in her own time, but it was impossible for them to be together considering Remus's fear of being with anyone because of his Lycanthropy.

Hermione walked over to the sleeping couple waking up Hermione first, she shook her shoulder for a moment to try and wake her up and when that didn't work she shouted in her ear knowing her senses were heightened. Both Remus and Hermione woke with a start and looked around to see a grinning Ginny looking down at the pair.

"What the hell was that for?" Hermione asked groggily, her voice laden with sleep.

"Eugh… what time is it, is it morning yet?" Remus asked from beside Hermione.

"You two spent the whole night down here together and classes will be starting in two and a half hours so I suggest you two get up now." Ginny said with her hands on her hips.

"The whole night, Merlin I didn't think I was that tired." He said yawning.

"Neither did I." Hermione said as she stretched standing up, she looked at Remus and noticed he was staring at her and she blushed slightly causing him to turn away.

Ginny stared at the two amused, they still blushed when they caught each other staring at them yet they had no problems waking up naked in the same room once a month, she would never understand them. Quickly pushing Hermione up the girl's staircase and into the bathroom to get ready she shouted a good morning to Remus over her shoulder who only chuckled in reply.

Twenty minutes later Hermione and Ginny emerged from the girl's dormitory ready to start the day, they noticed that nobody was in the common room yet; they were undoubtedly lying in bed waiting until the very last moment when they knew they HAD to get out of bed.

Walking out of the portrait hole ignoring the drunken gargling of the Fat Lady and her partner in crime Violet, as they went. Upon reaching the great hall they were relieved to see that a few students were there at least. They both marched over to the Gryffindor table and began piling small amounts of everything onto their plates, and started eating. Ginny and Hermione talked about everything except the full moon, every time Ginny brought it up Hermione would change the subject or distract Ginny from the previous conversation. Hermione had asked Ginny countless times over breakfast why she kept asking if they had already agreed on what had to be done as a precaution.

They were saved a while later by Lily and Remus joining them at the table, Remus and Hermione locked eyes and flushed, while Ginny and Lily rolled their eyes at the bothersome couple. They always seemed to make things difficult for themselves. Happy for the change in company Hermione turned away from her to talk to Remus while Lily and Ginny talked excitedly.

Their was a quiditch match coming up soon Gryfindor versus Ravenclaw and Hermione had decided she wasn't going to go, she usually got roped into going to the pointless game every time the Gryfindor's played a match.

When Hermione an Remus were finished talking Ginny tried to get Remus to talk to Hermione about the full moon and what exactly they would be doing if the marauders could not keep the two apart. Hermione glared at Ginny seeing Remus's flush face from beside her at the Gryfindor table, Ginny Knew Hermione was starting to feel the pull towards Remus, and knew Remus was feeling it as well she was just pushing her luck trying to get them together before the full moon.

Even though the pull was small and easily ignored with the help of a good load of homework to think about, or a nice book to get lost in, they both knew it was there and would be getting stronger as the weeks progressed and the new moon drew closer, the only thing they didn't know was how hard it would be to resist.

Later that day, Hermione was spending some well deserved alone time with Remus, they wanted to spend as much time together before the full moon since they would need to be kept apart during that time period to prevent mini Moony's from running around the place.

They were standing in the middle of a dark abandoned corridor, it was well past dinner time and everybody had headed back to their dormitories for bed.

Hermione was pressed against the wall with Remus's body flush against her own the heat of their bodies igniting the fire in the it of her stomach as Remus ground against her agonizingly slow.

Hermione groaned, she and Remus were trying to limit contact with each other as much as possible before the moon, but try as they might it was impossible, they just couldn't keep their hands to themselves.

Remus pressed his hardened member into Hermione relishing in the moan that escaped her beautiful plump cherry colored lips. She was slowly driving him insane with her presence; he ran his hands up and down her body as their lip met in a fierce and passionate kiss. His hands slowly moved up embedding themselves in her hair as he pulled her closer, desperate for as much bodily contact. He felt Hermione pull him closer and slowly wrap her legs around his waist, he lifted her up, pressing her harder against the wall to support her weight, not that she weighed very much. His mouth came in contact with her neck, and he trailed small butterfly kisses along her neck, finding a suitable place on her neck he began massaging the spot with his tongue, sucking and nibbling on her neck.

Hermione knew exactly what he was doing; he was preparing her for marking. She felt his teeth sharpen slightly as he sucked on her neck and waited for him to break the skin on her neck marking her as his. She didn't have to wait long before a shot of pain flashed through her neck quickly followed by a wave of pleasure as he massaged the mark with his tongue making sure it wasn't going anywhere any time soon. Pulling apart they looked at each other panting, they had never experienced something so intense with each other, usually just a quick snog between classes. Remus looked sheepish as he looked down at Hermione's flush face, he knew it was their werewolf hormones taking affect, but they should have been able to control themselves it was still three weeks till the new moon, and the pull would definitely get worse as time wore on.

"Hermione I'm so sorry, it's these damn werewolf hormones I…" Remus began.

"Don't apologize Remus, we are dating, we are both werewolves, and it's not as if anything got out of hand." She said looking down at his now extremely visible erection making Remus blush.

"Your right Hermione as always, Come on lets head back before something does get out of hand." Remus said as he grabbed her hand dragging her down the corridor with him and back to Gryffindor common room.

A few moments later Hermione and Remus were standing outside the common room panting heavily, they both tried to catch their breaths and compose themselves before facing their friends.

When they entered the common room the only people up were Lily and Ginny who were sitting on the couch in front of the fire with curious expressions on their faces at the sight of the dishelved couple. Mumbling something and Kissing Hermione goodnight Remus headed upstairs away from his girlfriend where he would hopefully be able to control his urges.

Sitting next to her friends on the couch Hermione looked between the two grinning figures and frowned at them. She backed away slightly feeling scared as they moved closer, Ginny had a puppy dog look on her face and lily was batting her eyelashes at Hermione.

Hermione knew they were looking for something, since this was Ginny's way of getting her to give in and she must have made lily join as well, Sighing she turned herself completely around so she was face to face with both of them.

"What do you want Ginny." Hermione asked getting annoyed.

"What makes you think I want something sister dear?" Ginny said looking scandalized.

"Yeah Hermione were just being friendly you know." Lily said holding her hand over her hearth in mock hurt.

"Ok, if you're not looking for anything I think I'll go to bed now." Hermione said smiling and standing to leave.

She was forcefully pulled down again by both girls who were looking pleadingly at her for her to stay with them. Groaning in frustration she motioned for them to continue with what they were about to hook her into.

"Spill it."

"Lily wants to become an Animagus." Ginny said.
