TW: Sexual Content Towards The Middle Of The Chapter

It was two days until September first, so Edith and Remus decided to do some last minute shopping at Diagon Alley. It was actually their last attempt of alone time before they had to be stuck in a dorm with three boys for months.

They'd planned to meet up with everyone (including Severus because Edith didn't give them a choice) at a muggle bar for a night of drinks. But until then, the two mates would wander around the Alley.

Edith had on a corset top and trousers with a basic robe. As much as she liked muggle fashion, her specialized robes allowed her wings free range if something happened. Remus was in his usual sweater, trousers, and a cloak. They looked like your average wizarding couple.

But to the public, they were anything but. They were The Phoenix and some boy. They did their best to ignore the stares from passersby as they walked arm in arm.

The Prophet's headlines about her were getting worse. Someone had let slip that she was made for Voldemort himself. Who did, they have no clue. But now there were extremely mixed views about her.

Of course, she'd saved plenty of lives, but there would always be conspiracy that it was all an act and she was actually a double agent for the Dark Wizard.

Edith and Remus had just walked into Obscurus Book Store. She'd picked Remus out a newer edition of Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. After purchasing it, she even added a little note at the end.

Species: Phoenix Hybrid
Only Known Being: Edith Féinics
Usually Found: Hogwarts or Being Followed By A Lycanthrope With An Affinity To Chocolate

When Remus had read it he gave her a bit of a side-eye and she laughed. "What! It's true!" She defended. Remus rolled his eyes playfully and put his arm back around her shoulders, placing a kiss to her hair. "Sugarplums Sweets next? I owe Petey some Bertie Botts."

"Wherever you want, Cariad." The young couple made their way back down the alley towards the sweets shop.

"Oooo Welsh. You know the things that does to me, Mister Lupin." She grinned with a hint of mischief.

A low growl left his chest, "There will be no instigating me in Public, Miss Féinics. You know I won't hesitate to take you into a dark alley right now." He spoke quietly into her ear.

"Is that a promise?" She raised her eyebrow up at him, a slight shiver sending down her body at the feel of his breath on her ear.

"Maybe one day." He nipped at her ear before turning his head back up.

She giggled as they walked into the sweets shop. They walked around, filling up a small basket awfully quick. Once at the counter, the clerk stilled.

"U-Uhm... I'm sorry you can't be here..." The meak girl just about whispered.
