Imagines- Harry Potter

Puppy | R.L

Prompt: Listening to them while they vent.

"No, and get this.-"

Remus had been ranting for the last ten minutes on the common room couch. The flames gave his face such an ethereal glow. His usually pale face looked a pale orange, and his brown eyes turned golden. Pale pink scars turned white and looked breathtaking.

"-he's such a bastard, lemme tell you." Remus continued about Professor Flitwick, "I tried and tried to tell him! But nope, apparently 'dogs don't exist at Hogwarts; therefore, it isn't true'. Little does he know a dog is living in the Gryffindor tower right under the daft idiot's nose!"

Y/n could barely withstand to hold back her laughs, "All this because Padfoot thought it was funny to eat your Charms essay?"

"Yes!" Remus exclaimed in frustration, "Bloody idiot."

Remus sat hunched forward now, elbows on his knees and hands rubbing his eyes; Y/n began scratching his back, "I couldn't even use the full moon excuse because that isn't till 'nother two weeks."

"I'm sorry, babe."

He sighed, "No, there's nothing you could've done about it."

Y/n continued to scratch his back, not knowing what else to do. After a couple of minutes, Remus' back started to ache, and he laid his head on Y/n's thighs, back now facing the couch. Her hand didn't stop, though but instead migrated to his hair. Sometimes she'd hit that sweet spot behind his ear, making him whimper in pleasure.

Meanwhile, he was utterly entranced with her beauty. Merlin, the golden flames made her look like Aphrodite herself. He was sure - 100% sure - that if Aphrodite were to come to earth, she'd take the form of Y/n. Her eyes were filled with an orange hue, and her hair was silky.

Y/n had picked up her book the minute Remus' head his her thighs, knowing that he didn't like moving once comfy. He got a perfect view of her expressions as she read, the sadness, the confusion, the anger, the giddiness. Sirius and James would've teased him had they been in the room, but Remus couldn't help it.

Eventually, she caught onto his stares, "What's on your mind, Moony?"

Godric, he remembered the first time she called him Moony. It melted his entire being. He couldn't remember the nickname being so sweet coming from Sirius, James, or Peter, but from her, it was covered in the sticky coating. It made a pink color flush on his cheeks, and a soft smile appear on his face when she called him the nickname.

"Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?" Remus questioned, cupping her cheek, "Indeed you have, Rem."

Her cheeks were pink too, "You look like an angel. No- no- that's not right. It isn't as accurate."

Y/n adored this. His thinking face, trying to come up with the perfect compliment or metaphor. Remus' thinking face always showed up in class, planning pranks, reading, writing, and she absolutely loved it. The way his nose crinkled just the slightest bit and his eyes would squint just barely.

"A puppy."

"A puppy?" Y/n repeated, confused, "Why a puppy?"

"You have that playful glow, yet you're jaw-dropping. People stop and stare to admire, yet you're so waggish." Remus explained, "And how I'm so grateful you chose to be my puppy."

Her stomach erupted with butterflies at the nickname, "Your puppy, huh?"

"All mine." Remus whispered, pulling himself up to kiss her.

His puppy, all his. Remus relished in the feeling of her lips on his. So gentle, so soft. Y/n's hands ran through his sandy-colored hair, and he deepened the kiss. Letting his tongue run along her bottom lip gently. Y/n responded, immediately opening her mouth for him, allowing Remus' tongue to taste the sweetness inside her mouth.

As they pulled apart, a string of saliva connected them. Y/n's cheeks were flushed a brilliant magenta, and so were Remus'. His hair disheveled from her hands running through it. His stomach fluttered, and his heart was racing. Carefully Remus nuzzled his nose against hers before laying back down on her thighs.

His girlfriend picked her book back up as Remus shuffled to get comfortable. After five minutes of shuffling, he found a place of harmony. Y/n grabbed a blanket from the back of the couch and placed it over him. Her free hand went to his hair and scratching behind his ear, pulling him to sleep.

"Get some sleep, Remmy." Y/n murmured, "Be here when I wake up?" Remus asked softly, almost falling into a deep sleep.

Y/n smiled, "Always."
