Alone

A/N: This continued scene is rated
a strong R for graphic sex.
He went to bed, finally, after proving
to himself that Old Odgen's Firewhiskey could not erase the thoughts of her from
his mind. She was stunning, dressed in dark red velvet--so graceful, so beautiful,
especially in contrast to the obvious attempts by the students to seem so. When
she had taken his arm, his heart had stopped in his chest.
And when he had seen her dancing
with another man, his heart had broken.
This was madness, he told himself.
It wasn't as though he hadn't known they were together
But somehow the sight
of them, dancing together at the Valentine's dance, willing the world to
know that they were in love
In love. She loved someone else.
He had known this, but tonight he had let himself believe it.
Getting back out of bed, he poured
himself another shot, tossing it back and flinging the empty glass into the fireplace.
Trying not to think about what they
must be doing now, he pulled the covers up to his ears and willed himself to sleep.

He woke once, sometime before dawn,
from a dream of her. It was too late to stop; he frantically stroked himself to
release, moaning her name.
No, this was wrong
this
he
shouldn't think of her this way. It was torture, it was
Shaking the last of the dream from
his mind, he rose and went to the bathroom. He gazed at himself in the mirror
for a long time. It was ridiculous. A crush he had encouraged for too long, a
fantasy that he had no hope of making real.
If anyone had told him the year before
that he would have passed on the chance to begrudge Severus Snape anything, he
would have laughed, long and loud.
But she loved him, and he clearly
loved her. And somehow, they belonged together. They were right for each other.
He was what she needed. What she wanted.
But gods, how he loved her
needed
her
wanted her.
He swallowed down a vial of hangover
remedy and returned to bed.

He woke again once the sun was up,
a little later than usual. He had dreamed of her again--dreamed that they were
dancing, that she was leaving the dance on his arm.
His head was more than a little fuzzy,
but did not ache; his penis was half-stiff with a morning erection. He sighed.
He should opt for a cold shower; he couldn't let himself think of her again while
he
But he wasn't strong enough. If this
was all he was ever going to have of her, he could not give it up without indulging
himself completely one last time.
He trailed his hand along his ribs,
over his stomach, causing his cock to twitch in anticipation. He let himself remember
every detail of her appearance--hair pulled back to fall in those luscious curls,
the hint of gloss on her lips and rouge at her cheeks, the drape of that rich
material across her neck, and the teasing glimpse of creamy skin where the dress
plunged ever so slightly down her back
He let his hand wander lower, bypassing
his hardening shaft to find his balls. He cupped them, and then massaged gently,
rolling them between palm and fingers while his other hand teased at his inner
thigh.
As he imagined the music, imagined
the feel of her in his arms, her breath on his neck, her whisper in his ear, he
felt himself begin to leak. His hips moved against the sheets of their own accord,
and the feel of the fabric against his hard on caused him to groan. He blindly
groped at the nightstand, opening the drawer to find the small jar of lubricant
he kept there.
Rubbing a small amount of it between
his hands, he tried to imagine her here, with him, wanting him as much as he wanted
her
Finally, he let his hand encircle
his cock. He held still, not wanting this to be over too quickly, and ran his
thumb along the head, coating it in fluid.
His thoughts of her became vague
impressions, fleeting images of tongue and breasts and hands, as he began to stroke
himself. Slowly, deliberately, his hand moved up and down. He forced his hips
into the bed to keep from thrusting.
Finally, he could resist no longer.
He imagined himself moving inside of her, surrounded by her heat, her wetness,
and his hand began to move in earnest. He tugged harder
she would whisper
in his ear, "I love you, Remus," and he would kiss her deeply as her
own orgasm began from deep inside her.
Thrusting into his hand, his grip
almost painful, he reached the edge. He slowed almost imperceptibly, torturing
himself with the feeling. With his other hand, he reached down to squeeze his
balls, to run a finger along his perineum
"Hermione!" he cried out,
coming hard, coating his stomach and wetting the sheets with his semen. His hand
continued to move, pulling gently until every drop had been wrung from his body.
He turned onto his side, burying
his face in the pillow.
"Hermione
"
A/N: Actually, Auror Borealis
made me want to try my hand at this (so to speak). See her stories "Satisfaction,"
"The View," and "Snake Charmer" for my inspiration.
