10. Both of Us

"Remus! Hey," Y/N smiled at him as she made her way to the sofa he was sitting on.

His stomach did backflips when she said his name, "What have you got there?"

"This is a connie!" she chuckled, looking down at the animal, "Hagrid told me his coneys are hatching so I came down to help him and I decided to have one. Isn't it cute? I'm glad Hagrid gave me one as a pet because these are my favorite ani-" she suddenly looked up at Remus. "Sorry."

Little did she know, Remus loves to hear her voice. He loves it how her eyes lit up when she's talking about animals or how passionate she is when she's talking about something she loves.

He can listen to her talking all day.

"Don't worry, Y/N," he smiled and patted the seat next to him —motioning her to sit down, "What's the connie's name?" he asked, just wanting to hear her voice again.

"I haven't got a name for it yet," Y/N furrowed her brows at the connie, "I don't know if it's a male or a female. What do you think suits it?"

"What about Caravel?" he nervously looked at her, desperately hoping that she would like it because he doesn't want to get embarrassed right now.

"That's lovely, your name is Caravel now!" Y/N said to the sleeping animal in her palms. Remus let out a quiet sigh of relief. His palms were sweaty and he didn't even know why.

Though Remus would never say it aloud, seeing her getting so excited is the most adorable thing he has ever seen.

"Y/N I want to talk to you about earlier today," he felt his heart banging.

Y/N's throat became hot and her ears were turning red. She did enjoyed it, and she probably wanted it to happen since the start of the year.

"I'm sorry if that was too fast," he spoke.

"What? Did you not want to do it?" she asked warily. Just a mere thought of him regretting to kiss her swelled her heart.

"No- I do really," he said quickly. "I want to tell you- um something actually."

Y/N nodded slowly allowing him to continue.

"I discovered my feeling that I've got and I think it would be better if- I admit it a long time ago, but I like you not as a friend but as something more," he looked at his lap and fumbled with his fingers, "I hope you feel the same way."

"I'm really sorry, I have to tell you this because I don't know how long I'm gonna have to hide it. People failed to acknowledge that you're smart and kind and I want to make you feel how you deserved to be felt. And I'm going to try doing that, only if you'll let me."

Y/N breathed, trying to process what he said, "I like you too, more than friends!" she blushed at her eagerness.

"Will you be mine?" asked he, looking directly into her eyes. "It's completely okay if you don't want to, I understand- I mean I'm a monster, aren't I?" he said the last part quietly —feeling smaller by the time.

this is it he thought. If she says no, I'm gonna run and cry in my dorm.

Y/N has a wide smile on her red face —the smile that that gives him butterflies, "Of course I'll be yours," she grinned shyly. "And stop saying you're a monster or I'm going to change my mind."

Both of his hands traveled to her face and he stared into her eyes that are hypnotizing to him. He loves her, everything about her. He could feel his eyes glassing as the second passed.

Remus gently pulled her close to him, "May I?"

She nodded then she crashed her lips to his. They moved together rhythmically. Remus stroked her cheeks with his thumb while keeping an arm firmly on her waist.

"Okay now don't get too far," Remus' eyes widened. "There's a baby coney here!" Y/N gestured to Caravel.

The boy chuckled, keeping an arm around her as they sat in calm silence.

"You know, your speech is really dramatic. I would've said yes even if you only asked me through a paper," she smiled at his flushed face.

"If I asked you out through paper, that'd be less meaningful," said he.

A/N : yayy they're together now <3
