Meretricious | Professor Lupin

31. Fate or Destiny

"Yeah" he replied looking out at the dinning hall.

"I remember she used to help out her 5th year teacher" she added.

"Oh?" he replied looking at the exit.

"Yeah, they were quite the pair. I actually think she got bullied because of it" she whispered.

"Hmm" he said thinking.

He remembered the poem he read in her notebook, but then he thought about how she's not at dinner.

Is she okay? I should be with her right? he asked himself.

"I actually bumped into Spencer at Hogsmeade" she replied.

"Interesting" he replied uninterested.

"Yeah and-"

"Sorry Maddison, I'm not feeling well. Would you mind if we continued this another time?" he asked getting up from his seat.

Kula smiled, "of course" she replied as he walked away not giving an answer back.

She looked back down and ate her food in silence.

Remus walked in a fast pace to Spencer's room, not wanting to be without her a minute less.

He opened the door and walked to her room, he smiled as he found her asleep with one of his shirts on.

He kneeled in front of her, kissing her cheek softly for her to wake up.

She shuffled for a bit and slowly opened her eyes.

"Remus" she said.

"Yeah" he answered.

She sat up and Remus moved to the bed, sitting next to her.

"You weren't at dinner" he said holding her hand.

"I needed a nap" she nodded her head, not looking at him.

"You okay?" he asked worried.

"Yeah just..." Spencer shrugged.

"Spencer?" he whispered.

"Mm" she replied.

"Can you look at me?" he asked, afraid of the answer.

She slowly moved her eyes towards him and gave him a small smile.

"Did I do something that you didn't like?" he asked.

"No-"

"Because If I did we should-"

"Remus no, you didn't" she cut him off.

"I just wanted to make sure you're okay" he added.

"I'm fine" she replied placing her other hand on his. "In need of a shower" she laughed softly, he chuckled at her response.
