Reading Between The Lines ~ Remus Lupin ~ Book 1

chapter 18

Saturday, 11 December 1976

"Are you sure you don't want to come?" Zoë asked as she, Maggie, and Ava walked out their shared room to leave for Hogsmeade.

"Yeah, I'm sure. I think I just need a bit of a lie-in and then I'll feel fine later.

"Alright, feel better, Lena," Zoë said.

"Thanks, Zo. Have fun!" Lena called as her roommates closed the door behind them.

Contrary to what she told her roommates, Lena was feeling perfectly fine. Lena loved a lot of things about Hogwarts— the people, the rooms, the grounds. One thing that she didn't love about Hogwarts was the lack of privacy. With roommates and shared bathrooms, there was not a lot of time for privacy and all Lena wanted at the moment was some privacy. She was in need of some self-love.

Lena locked the door and placed a silencing charm on the room. She walked over to her bed and pulled back the covers to the end of the bed. Lena took off her shirt and shimmied out of her pajama pants. She was left standing in just her panties.

Laying flat on her back, Lena rested her head on her pillow. Lena slowed her breathing to relax herself. Lena closed her eyes and began to graze her stomach and hips with her fingertips, sending chills throughout her body. She let out a breath as she moved her fingertips over the sides of her body. Lena inched her hands up her body, placing her hands on her breasts, feeling their warmth. Lena waited for her nipples to pebble under her palms before she began to knead her breasts. Lena lightly ran her fingers over her nipples and flicked them. She let out a moan as she began tweaking and pinching her nipples, making them harder.

Lena kept touching her nipples with her right hand as her left hand traveled down her stomach to rest on her panty-covered mound. Her panties were already slightly damp from touching her breasts. Lena squeezed her thighs together and moved her hand up and down over her pussy. She stopped moving her hand and began to trace her middle and index fingers over her covered folds. Lena lifted her legs and removed her now soaked panties and tossed them to the floor. Lena continued running her two fingers through her folds until she couldn't take it anymore and started to rub her clit slowly. Her breathing got shakier as she started rubbing faster and more aggressively. She slid her right hand down her body and began to rub her clit with that hand. Her left hand traveled further down her pussy so her fingers could play her entrance. Lena slightly curled her index finger and pushed it into her slowly. She began to ease her finger in and out of her as she continued rubbing her clit. She arched her back and lifted her hips as she moved her fingers faster. Her breathing got heavier and she began to moan. Remus' name fell from her lips as she moaned. Lena completely stilled. She pulled her fingers out of her. She did not mean to say his name, or think of him, while she was fingering herself. She felt so guilty, like she was violating him somehow.

Lena needed a cold shower.

Lena looked at her roommates, who were all fast asleep even though it was only eleven o'clock on a Saturday. They were absolutely knackered from their day in Hogsmeade. Lena rose from her bed and plaited her hair. She slipped into her trainers as she pulled a blue jumper over her night-shirt. Lena quietly made her way out of the room and tiptoed down the stairs. Lena internally groaned as she scanned the common room. Nearly all seventh years were in the common room playing drink games, no doubt celebrating their last Saturday ever at Hogwarts before winter break. She really did not want them to see her sneaking out and assuming she was about to meet someone for a midnight tryst. Sighing, Lena got on all fours and crawled behind the couches, shielding herself from the seventh-years view as she made her way to the common room's exit.
