You woke up to the loud sound of birds chirping. You opened your eyes, and you were obviously still in the forest. You looked around you, and you were back at the tree where your stuff was. And then you realized...you weren't just laying on the ground.

You were laying on a blanket, with nothing but a large robe wrapped tightly around you, cuddling and tangled up with....REMUS!?

Your head was resting on his bare chest, your legs entangled with his. His arm was around you, holding you close to him, as he slept peacefully.

You didn't move an inch. You just laid there in utter shock. You didn't know what to do. You slowly reached over him, and checked your watch. 11 AM!? OUR FIRST CLASS STARTED TWO HOURS AGO.

You put the watch down and shook Remus to wake him up. "Remus! Remus, get up!" you said, and he groaned, and opened his eyes. He immediately froze and tensed up, as he realized where he was and what he was doing. He shot up, and practically gasped. "Wh-what happened?" he said.

You looked at him, worriedly. "I-I don't remember." you said, not remembering a single thing from last night after you had touched noses with that other werewolf. "But the last thing I remember is-" you stopped talking. "Wait..but..you-you.." you stopped talking, and stood up, clutching the robe around your body. You didn't have ANYTHING on under it, and you were freezing.

"You-" Remus said, but you interrupted him. "I remember you walking into the forest, and I had told you to leave...then the moon came up a-" you froze in shock. You felt a shiver run down your body, as you came to realize the truth. "You're...a werewolf. That's why you were so upset.." you said, looking down.

He turned to look at you, and sighed. "You too.." is all he said, burying his face in his hands. You nodded, and you both stood there, not knowing what to say or do. "So we don't remember what happened at all last night, because I don't know if-" he paused for a second. "Nope, never mind I don't wanna know." he said, walking over to his bag.

"Our, y'know, werewolves must have taken over..." you said, awkwardly. He nodded, grabbing his extra clothes from his bag. All he was wearing was a robe around his waist. Your eyes shot to his chest, and you stared at his abs, before quickly looking away when he looked up. He noticed, and smirked.

You turned around, flustered, so he could get dressed, and he did the same for you. You checked the time again, and it was almost 12, now. You guys packed everything up, and headed back to the castle.

You bursted into the Gryffindor common room, both of you letting out a breath of relief, as you didn't get caught. You knew people would question why you weren't in class, but you weren't ready for people to know. But you were still in shock, not being able to process that this whole time you've been here, REMUS has been a werewolf as well, and you didn't know.

You practically threw yourselves down on the couch, and then you heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Well, actually several footsteps, that sounded like they were sprinting down the stairs. You and Remus both turned to see who was there, and you saw Lily, Sirius, and James running over to you.

You both groaned, as they immediately plopped onto the couch next to you guys. "Finally, you're back! We skipped all of our classes waiting for you!" Lily said. You rolled your eyes, burying your face in a pillow. "So...what happened?" Sirius said, smirking. You looked up at Lily, glaring at her.

"What!? I had to tell them once both of you had gone down there. They were going to find out eventually." she said. You and Remus both rolled your eyes, and you were practically falling asleep again.

"We don't even remember what happened, to be quite honest with you." Remus said. "All we can remember is seeing each other in the forest, before the moon came up, and y/n was telling me to leave, then we had both turned. Then we woke up, and we were both snuggled together. And covered up." he added at the end.

Sirius and James, being the childish boys they are, starting giggling like little girls. "OoOoo you guys woke up together?" James said, smirking. You rolled your eyes, and sighed. "James, keep talking and I'll break your nose." you said, glaring at James. He looked
at you, slightly worried.

"Wow, you've got yourself a feisty one, Moony." Sirius said, grinning. Remus turned to him. "Shut up Padfoot. I'll break your nose, as well. Then you and Prongs can be twins." he said. You giggled, yawning loudly.

"Looks like you two didn't sleep much." Lily said. You both glared at her, as her eyes widened. "Not like that! I just meant in general, like you two should rest." she said, awkwardly.

Remus put his arm around you, and laid down with you next to him. You snuggled up with him, burying your face in his neck. This time, Remus yawned, and it sent shivers down your body, as his face was right next to your ear. "Whatever, just let us sleep. I'm tired." Remus said, and they all laughed, walking out of the common room.

And before you knew it, you were both fast asleep, with you snuggled under Remus's arm, buried in his warmth.
