[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He shuddered, looking to her. Damn that alcohol. Without it, he wouldn’t looking at her now and want to take her to bed this instant. Damn his physical reactions that showed those thoughts without his consent. “H-How can something wrong feel… so right?” He sighed, quickly picking her up and setting her down on the chair. It seems he could hear something coming, and soon enough, the door was knocked on and he greeted the person at the door, taking the two plates of steak and closing the door behind him. “Sorry, again, I was getting ahead of myself.” He grinned and set the steak on a nearby table by the chair, and then took a seat on the floor, nearby, looking up at her.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? His eyes widened even further and his hand from the back of the bench was removed very quickly. He stood up a bit suddenly and rubbed the back of his head nervously, looking around as if to see if anyone was listening. She was so open about… that. He didn’t know quite how to deal with it. Sure, he’d seen how James or Sirius would react, but he wasn’t them. And boy, he wished he could ask them for advice right now. “I – well, no offense, you are very pretty but I – I haven’t…” He looked off to the side as if embarrassed before he quickly shook it away. “I would… like to save that first… for someone special, you know? I mean… that’s… something old fashioned at this point, and I’m sure a lot of people would laugh at me. But… I don’t know. It’s the one thing I can control in my life, and I want it to be… memorable. With someone I love. We don’t… even know each other’s names.” His face had gone pink like a Slowpoke. His hands were shaking because well, he wasn’t used to this, this was so weird – someone actually liking him? Wanting to – to do that with him? Boy, usually it was Sirius or James the girls were fawning over. This wasn’t normal for him. “I uh, doubt that, honestly. When she doesn’t want to be found, she won’t be. She’s resourceful as well. I’m pretty sure any girl you would bring to me would very quickly get bored of me or run away scared when they really get to know me. I’m not a good man. I’m poor. I’m… dangerous. Both of those are red flags to anyone.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He waggled his eyebrows. “Why else would I be friends with such troublemakers if I wasn’t prone to trouble myself? Of course, the professors would never believe you if you told them.” He gave her a wink and shook his head with a small grin. His hands slid up her thighs and back down, then up and to her hips. He let out a deep breath, along with a small little low sound… was that a moan? It was short, but it surely was. What was wrong with him? Why was he enjoying this so much? He just met this girl, and here he was already ready to get with her so intimately. “Oh definitely. That would be very… unfortunate.” He pressed a kiss to her cheek, before he slowly began to trail his kisses down to her neck, and finally he bit down lightly at the crook of her neck, with a low growl. His eyes peered up from his position before he released her sensitive skin with a slight pop.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus sighed. It was true, he didn’t know much about Regulus himself. When he heard about him, it was always packaged with his parents. However, there was something Regulus didn’t have going for him. “I trust Sirius with my life, so yeah, I will take his word. Regardless if it is factually correct, it is his perception of the situation, and his feelings are valid. Somehow you made him feel that way even if everything he’s said isn’t completely true. The fact is, you were part of the problem or he wouldn’t have said you were. If you want me to think differently, you have to convince your brother differently.” His voice was even and he looked down Regulus taking in everything that he was. Watching everything, waiting for the slightest movement that could mean he was going to attack him. However, when he saw the look on his face, he could feel a bit of sympathy rising up inside of him. He was still at school, still a kid. Even he was still a kid in a way. Barely out of school thrust into this war. He could empathize with him. “Don’t apologize. We all have days like that.” His posture remained defensive, not letting his guard down, but he moved a bit closer to him, carefully, just so they weren’t quite far apart so no one would overhear them. His left fist clenched, his wand in his right. Severus Snape? What the hell was she on? Was she really thinking – had he driven her that far from him? She had to be doing this to get attention, a desperate cry for help, for him to come and sweep her off her feet and bring her back. How could she like a greasy haired git like that? He was one of the few people Remus was completely sure was a Death Eater, not far behind Bellatrix Lestrange and her ‘crew’. Why would Regulus be here? Wasn’t he friends with Severus? Wasn’t he one of their own? Why was he selling out one of his own to a known Order member – saying that his sister was sleeping with – or at least infatuated with him? That was just asking for him to storm over there and kill the little rat bastard. “Why are you telling me this? Why would you help me?” That was what didn’t make any sense to him.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? His eyes widened as her hand touched his knee. Oh gods, what was going on? Was she – Was she one of those… women of the night trying to get him to pay to spend the night with her? That would make sense why she had no plans, and she was all dressed up. He gently took her hand, lifted it off his knee and set it to the side, clearing his throat roughly. “Ah ha, well before you get too into… whatever this is, I don’t have any money to pay you.” Hell, he didn’t even know if this girl – woman – knew about magic. After all this was muggle London, though they weren’t very far from the Leaky Cauldron. There were his hands, shaking with nervousness. “A-And I’m pretty sure you can’t find my sister to let me talk to her. Or find me a girl who would accept someone like me and make a family. So, I’m pretty sure… you’re wrong.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus had been working for Rosemerta today, doing a few deliveries here and there, as he liked to help out when he had the time and didn’t have a mission to attend to. Having finished up helping her out, Remus strolled down the street with a bit of a smile. He was going to meet ‘Lily’ soon. However, he was still worried a bit from what Lily Evans had told him before. Warned him that she didn’t exist. He thought it was probably just a cover because she was in trouble, or at least some sort of trouble. And that was when Regulus strolled up to him, hands up showing he meant no harm. Regardless of the position Regulus had approached him in, Remus drew his wand, pointing it at the young boy, not trusting a Death Eater – or at least a sympathizer (seeing as they weren’t sure he was a Death Eater, not yet at least). Not only that, but Regulus’s assumption was correct, he wasn’t about to stand here without protection against Sirius Black’s brother, given everything he had heard about his friend’s family in general. “Why do you care? From everything I’ve heard, none of you really care about him.” He dropped his wand to his side, but he kept it at the ready, just in case. His reflexes were sharp, and he was confident he could beat him if it came to a standoff like the cowboys in the Old West of America. “What’s your game, Regulus? What do you want?”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus looked up quickly like he was playing some sort of jump scare game and placed his hand over his heart. “I’m sorry, I was lost in thought.” He looked over her and a confused look appeared on his face. Along with a very slight blush. She was all dressed up, beautiful, and she was talking to him? Why on earth would someone like her, associate with someone like him. Instinctively, his hand went to his face, tracing one of his scars as if to say ‘don’t you see these’ but he quickly dropped his hand. “Nothing’s wrong. Well nothing that can be fixed.” He shook his head and stretched out and laid a hand on the back of the bench. Well, she obviously had a night planned. It would be a shame if he interrupted that. He didn’t want to make her feel like he was holding her back because she was worried about some stranger. “You look like you’re dressed up for a night. Don’t let me get in the way.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He pressed a kiss to her neck, leaning down, his hands setting on her lap. “Dinner will be here soon, but who knows the kind of trouble we could get into before then, hm? I was thinking, maybe we could plant a peppermint bomb so the one who set it before gets hit… They likely would check their traps yes?” His eyes twinkled with mischievousness. Then they turned a bit darker and his hands ran against her thighs a bit. “Or, of course, there’s a lot of other things we could do.” What were you doing Remus? What was wrong with you? You already knew coming here there would be no lay tonight. Even still, he couldn’t seem to get her out of his head. This physical affection was really nice after so long of little affection. His mother died when they were born, and their father never gave him any sort of physical affection. Hell, he didn’t remember any time his father gave him a hug. Or even a friendly handshake.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Well, that made sense, he supposed. It was definitely much more likely then running into a random other werewolf at a time like this and getting along like that. Well it seemed they had even more in common seeing as she didn’t seem to eat as well as she should. He was always very bad about eating all he should eat. Rosemerta knew that too and seemed to take pity on him sometimes. Either way he waved at her and headed up the stairs. The room was usually empty anyways, so she always gave it to him either for a discount or for free. Might as well not let it go to waste. “Ah, well, its still a beautiful name. Your family shouldn’t define who you are. If my dad defined me, I would be a class 1 asshole.” He chuckled lightly and shook his head. Really his father was an asshole, and he never wanted to see him ever again. He opened the door and gestured to let her in like a gentleman. However, he entered the room and sat in the chair near the fire. He patted his lap with a questioning look. Would she accept his offer? “It’ll be the first time I don’t sleep alone in a long time. It… honestly is very exciting.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? His eyes widened for a second when she nipped at him and he just shook his head at her and chuckled. She really was a wild one. Maybe he had a type. A feisty, beautiful young woman. Then again, he never really felt like this about anyone before. Sure, there were girls and he had a slight crush on Lily he shoved away when he found out how much James really loved her. Otherwise, he never really had his sights on anyone – unless you counted Sirius. But that was far more complicated than anything else. “Anything at all, you have my word.” And his word was his bond. He wouldn’t break it – well – unless… “Well unless its to kill someone or betray one of my friends, otherwise, anything yes.” There we go, now he could live up to his word. He would still be honest with his word and he was pretty sure anything she wanted wouldn’t be one of those two exceptions, but he wanted to make that clear. He would never do anything of that – well he might kill if he had to. Remus grinned and shook his head. “I think she might like me.” He gave her a wink. “You like rare steaks too?” He narrowed his eyes and he looked to her for a moment with a very confused look. That wasn’t something he had seen in anyone besides himself and his sister – and they had something in common. Could that be what she was hiding? He shrugged it off and soon made their way into the building. “That would be great yes. You know what I like, uhm, but you could take her order. I doubt she’d like… my order.” He nods looking to Lily. He tilted his head while Madam Rosemerta called her Ms. Hope. Hm. That was his mother’s name. That was really surreal. “Your last name is Hope, Lily? That’s… interesting. And adorable. Lily Hope. My mum’s name was Hope.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He chuckled lowly as she wobbled slightly. Man, if only he knew this was his sister, this would’ve gone so much differently. He quickly wrapped an arm around her waist and held her against him after standing up to help steady her. “Careful there, tiger.” He smiled – he was able to hold his alcohol a bit better since he was a bit more used to it. However, he could feel some minor effects, like the bravery – from lack of inhibitions in his mind. That’s how he had the confidence to kiss her to begin with. “I really appreciate that. If there’s… anything you want at all, I’ll be here for you. I might be unable to do it, but I’ll try to make you as happy as you’ve already made me.” He sighed holding her close against him and started out of the bar, raise his free hand up to wave to Aberforth. He was sure that Dumbledore would hear about this, and hopefully it wouldn’t spread too far in the order about the girl he picked up in the bar. He would never hear the end of it. “She and I have a working relationship, I help her out sometimes, and she’ll help me out others. She makes the best steak.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? “Maybe. Gods you’re so amazing. It’s like… someone saw that I was having issues and shoved the perfect girl right into my face. I – I mean I know you have flaws like everyone else, but – but you know what I mean right?” He looked at her shyly, his head facing down but his eyes up towards her. “It isn’t healthy at all,” He sighed looking at his drink with just his eyes, and then they flicked back to her. “I don’t know why, but it seems to give me the confidence I need in some situations, but also makes me a complete and total idiot. Even if just for a second, it helps… forget about all my problems. And that’s worth a lot to me.” He sighed, reaching for the hand on his chin, gently taking it and pressing a kiss to the back of it. “But I think I might have found something even better. Instead of forgetting my issues, you make me happy and I feel like I can deal with them.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus sighed. He knew it wasn’t worth it to fight against Molly Weasley and her mom instincts. He might be young, but he wasn’t a kid anymore. Yet he never had a mother, and it felt a little… nice to have someone concerned over him in such a way. Fussing over him as if he were her own child. He’d gone so long without a parent like figure – his actual dad being a complete asshole. He followed her into the kitchen and got himself a bowl of the stew. He sat at the table and looked up at her. “I appreciate it. A lot. I really do.” He bit his lower lip before dipping his spoon into the stew and taking a bite. As always, it was delicious. She was one of the best cooks he’d met – or it could be the feelings of her taking care of him like she was his mother was seeping into his opinion of her cooking. “I – I’ve been wondering. You’ve been in love, obviously. Otherwise you wouldn’t be married to Arthur, that was stupid of me to say. But –“ He sucked in a breath. “What did it feel like when you realized it?”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He smiled a bit. “I can try. I can’t promise to change overnight.” He shook his head and sighed. “To be perfectly honest, I’ve been drowning in my own self-doubt and self-hate. I haven’t been improving myself, just… going through the motions.”Basically, he was saying that he hadn’t lived since he lost his sister. It was sad, but honestly true. He felt so lost without her. He felt like he wasn’t complete, missing a piece of himself. “… I don’t want you to if you don’t want to, I don’t want – want to manipulate you into it – but… I would… be happy to just… sleep together, nothing more than actual, just sleeping.”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus blinked a couple times. Boy, she knew how to read a man’s mind. She already knew he was going to ask to spend the night – or she was just going to tell him to anyways. He looked down at his stomach for a moment and chuckled a bit nervously. “Ah, no, I’ll be fine, Molly. I really appreciate the offer though.” He paused for a moment. He was so used to refusing anything that was offered to him. He didn’t want to seem a burden and it was enough that he already was going to spend the night. “I will take the nightcap. I was actually waiting to ask you if I could. I could maybe watch the kids one day as payment, to make it up to you. I wouldn’t want to intrude…” His stomach growled again, and he scowled at the traitorous organ. He gave her a weak smile. “It wouldn’t be any good if I got used to eating my fill. It’s much more likely that I won’t have access to food in the coming years, and it’d be better to not… to get used to it.” Excuses excuses. You just don’t want to feel like you owe her something – and like a burden. You just don’t like accepting things from others because it makes you feel weak and like you can’t provide for yourself. Because you can’t provide for yourself because of your condition.
