Chapter 37: adorable (PPOV)
When I woke up I was back in Remus' room, alone this time. I sat up...with much difficulty and looked around the room. I was still kind of sore but the only place that was actually hurting was my neck and shoulder now. Agh I wonder where he went? I really need the bathroom...wonder if I can make it? Deciding I definitely couldn't wait I flung off the covers and slowly got off the bed trying not to use my right arm too much.
My hips were still sore but I was able to walk...okay, more like limp towards the bathroom. I had yet to truly see myself since everything went down, I actually haven't really thought about it. Remus had told me what my eyes look like, and I had seen my bruises on myself already. Once I got to the bathroom all I really cared about was peeing, so I took care of that first. I took a deep breath and stepped in front of the mirror.
I could barely recognize myself...my eyes where white-ish tinted blue a little bit actually, it looked like I just had contact lenses in. The bite on my neck was even better now, it was just slightly red but it was all just scarred now. I pulled my hair down and let it fall around my shoulders successfully hiding the scar. Besides the way I looked right now...I actually didn't feel any different, I had thought I would feel more...animalistic...
My stomach growled...huh, I completely forgot I needed to eat. Rubbing my poor empty stomach I walked back into the room and towards the living room. I know Remus told me I had to stay in his dorm...but I was starving! I wonder if he has anything to snack on here.
Walking around made me realize my freaking legs hurt like hell still, and my hips were slightly sore, but I could handle it. Sure I was walking slower and limping slightly...but it was nothing compared to how much pain I would've went through if I lost Remus. Really all I wanted was some food and my life would be wonderful right now.
I didn't know what I was expecting to find in his few cupboards he had in his dorm...it was a dorm by the way. He didn't eat in here, we never cooked in here anyways...he always got the house elves to bring us something if we didn't want to go down to the great hall. This was something I didn't know how to do yet, Remus always called one of them through the fireplace.
I had successfully found quite a few chocolate bars (my boyfriend had a major problem...he was addicted to chocolate, and I found his stash), there was a package of chocolate chip cookies, and there was a bottle of wine in the very back of one of the bottom cupboards.
I grabbed the cookies and the wine and went to sit, sliding down on the couch so my feet can reach the coffee table, I started eating and I unscrewed the cork and sipped on the wine when the cookies made my mouth dry. I knew he had to have some wine glasses in here somewhere...but I was too lazy to look right now. I laughed slightly at how I must look, and wondered what Remus will say when he see's I finished his cookies.
By the time I was almost completely done the cookies, and the bottle of wine was almost half way gone, the fireplace lit up in green flames and magically grew as my new mate stepped out. I couldn't stop the huge smile that graced my face when I saw him; my heart skipped a beat when he let out a laugh as he walked over to the couch I was slouched over on, surrounded by crumbs from the cookies, and half an empty bottle of wine.
"Got hungry, little one?" he said grinning at me as he came and sat beside me, just feeling him beside me now gave me this unbelievable feeling inside that I couldn't even begin to explain.
"Sorry I finished your cookies; I was starving when I woke up! Is this how you always feel after a full moon?" I pushed the box and crumbs off of me and to my side and handed him the bottle so I could sit up more and move into his waiting arms. I gave a content sigh when his arm wrapped around my shoulder and I snuggled into him, rubbing my face and cheek on his chest and taking in his scent.
"You're adorable my Love, and yes...you're gonna be pretty hungry for a while, for the first few moons. It slows down eventually but we'll have to be careful while it's like this...can't have you going out and terrorizing the village" I could tell her was trying to make this a joking matter but I could feel how he was upset with himself over all of this.
"You smell so wonderful; I can't believe I didn't notice before. I don't want you to ever leave my side Remus, I need you here. Forever." I understood his needing me now; I knew exactly how he felt when he was around me now...it was incredible.
