TW‼️ Awkward smut‼️

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

It was now March and it had been two months since I left George. The little hut was cosy and tight. We easily got annoyed at each other, but did our best to hide it. Tonks came and went as she had Order buisness to take care of, but Remus stayed all the time. It was hard to fill the time when the days were long and grey. I couldn't go outside, not use magic and I had to try and keep the ghosts away.

«It's not your fault that I'm here» Bernard shouted when I tried to chase him away. «Or wait. It is»

«I'm trying to chase you away!» I shushed him away from me. «I didn't call for you..»

«I didn't ask to come here!» He crossed his arms. «I have-»

«A wife» I rolled my eyes at him. «How many times are you gonna tell me that? I understand. You want to go back. Belive me, even if I kinda like you now, there is nothing inside of me that wants you to stay»

«Fine..» He muttered and disappeard into my room.

«Wait! Don't go in there without me!» I yelled at him and stood up to chase him.

Remus came running inside when he heard me shout. «Is everything alright?!» He frantically looked around him.

«Just Bernard being a dick head!» I called back and tried to slap Bernard even though he's a ghost.

«Right..» I heard Remus reply. It's not really normal to have conversations with dead people.

~2 weeks later.

Tonks returned and Remus was now making the food while she teached me selfdefense in hand to hand combat. «If someone comes towards you with a pocket knife, you do this» She grabbed the arm I held the knife in and the other one, pushing them towards each other when I swung my knife at her. She stopped right before I cut myself. «Now you do it» She encouraged me. She handed me the knife and I copied her every move. «Very good» She patted me on the back before sitting down in the couch.

«Thanks for the lesson» I smiled and sat down aswell.

Remus called for us and we gathered in the kitchen to eat lunch. «I wondered if I could go for a walk in the forrest. There's no-one here and you Remus have checked it a thousand times»

«Sure. Just be careful and not use magic. And most important, stay close to the hut and scream very loud if something happens..» He instructed me. «Don't go too far»

«I wont» I smiled at him.

«By the way, I met George the other day and there has been no report on spotted Death Eaters for a while. I thought I could bring you back for a couple of hours on my next 'mission'» Tonks told me which I was excited about.

But what if the Death Eaters showed up..?

«He said not to bring you, but you're old enough to decide that yourself and I thought it would be nice to get you some new clothes... and a proper shower. The lake outside isn't very... nice to take a bath in..»

Do I smell bad...?

I tried as subtle as I could to sniff my armpit.

I thought about it for a while and decided that I would go with her. We would travel under the radar. Remus agreed, but he told me to stay out of sight. «It's a really bad idea to bring you back, but a few hours in daylight when there had been no sign after Death Eaters in Diagon Alley for a while is probably alright»
