Chapter 10: Hermione Takes Remus Shopping

The week went by fairly quickly for Hermione, considering she was completely alone at night, and that Severus' students didn't behave exactly like she remembered she had while in his class. For a brief moment, she almost thought he had gotten softer in his teaching techniques, but realized that it would take a miracle for that to happen. She awoke Saturday morning to find a Ministry owl sitting on her wardrobe waiting patiently for her to wake.

My Dearest Hermione,
Unfortunately, I have been detained until tomorrow evening. I shall return around dinner. Please request something for the two of us to be brought to our chambers. Your pleasant company is all that I require. I hope you haven't had too bad of a week, and that my monstrous students haven't given you too much trouble. There is much to discuss when I return and I am sure you will be delighted with the news I bring. Take care of yourself until I return.
Eternally Yours,
Severus

"Well, that's interesting," she thought to herself. She had been planning on a shopping trip to Hogsmeade. She needed to buy a few pair of enchanted robes. Some that would expand as her stomach grew. She also had a few other items she wanted to buy, one item in particular. Ginny had shown her a catalog containing a few pieces of lingerie that she had bought to surprise Harry. There were some even made for pregnant witches, and were very tasteful, not repulsive. One item that caught her eye was a baby doll night gown that clasped just below her breasts. It was open the rest of the way down to her hips and had matching silver panties. Ginny had ordered the same item and said it fit very nicely. Hermione was looking for something a bit more colorful and Ginny told her of a shop in Hogsmeade that sold the lingerie in an assortment of colors and prints. She wanted to take someone with her to give an honest opinion, so she settled on asking Ginny to come along.

She threw some powder into the fire and yelled "Godric's Hollow!" In a few short seconds, her head was floating in Harry and Ginny's living room, where they were lying on the sofa.

"Hello Hermione! To what do we owe this visit?" Leave it to Harry to be so chipper this morning.

"Sorry to startle you guys, but I was wondering if you had any plans today Ginny? I need to go shopping in Hogsmeade and I wanted to get your opinion on a few *things*." Ginny took the hint and knew what Hermione was going to buy.

"I see. Sorry, but mum needs me to help her with a few details concerning the wedding. I promised her I would help her. I really am sorry I can't help you with buying those *things*." Harry looked at his wife, then at Hermione and realized what exactly she was going to buy.

Harry sat bolt upright and threw his hands in the air. "Don't even ask me. I may be your best friend, but I have learned to not put myself in situations that may or may not inflict bodily harm. Besides, I am needed at the Ministry. We are finishing up on Macnair's case and we all have to write our sworn testimonies as to what he told us. I am sure Severus told you?"

"Yes he sent me an owl. He said he has exciting news for me."

"I don't know about that. All I know is we're going to be held up until tomorrow afternoon. Such a shame it has taken this long."

"Well, I understand. I'll just have to wait until you can go with me then Ginny. There isn't anyone else I'd let see me in lingerie." Hermione was disappointed that she didn't have anyone to take with her. She really wanted to surprise Severus when he came home on Sunday night. But, it seemed it would have to wait. Harry on the other hand, had a brilliant idea forming in his warped brain.

"Hey. What about Remus? I know he would give you an honest opinion, and you wouldn't have to worry about him getting the wrong idea because he's gay! It's perfect!"

"What? You want me to let Professor Lupin see me nearly naked? And pregnant no less?" Hermione was so shocked at the idea that she didn't even realize she had let the cat out of the bag, so to speak.

"You're pregnant Hermione?" Her two friends chimed together.

"Yes! Isn't it great? I thought that Severus would have told Harry sometime this week."

"We're not exactly best friends Hermione."

"I know but I just thought— Well. Anyway, I am due around April 1st. That's Severus' birthday."

"We're both very happy for you." Harry was glad for them, but in the back of his mind, he couldn't help but wonder how the world would treat their child. His would be welcomed with open arms just because of it's last name. But the child, that was a different story.

"Have you decided on a wedding date yet? I am sure you'll want to be married before the baby comes." Leave it to Ginny to worry what people thought.

"Yes, but we haven't sent out any invitations yet. Just so you know, it will be on Christmas eve and held in the Great Hall at Hogwarts."

"Great! Another Christmas at Hogwarts! I have missed them so much." Harry always liked Christmas at school the best. He really had missed waking up in his dorm, Ron telling him he had presents. Then eating until he was so full he could burst. He stole a glance at the clock, and realized he had fifteen minutes until he was supposed to be at the ministry. "Well, I must be going. Hermione, I'll let Severus know I saw you and that you are absolutely glowing!"

"Thank you Harry. And don't tell him about my shopping trip. I want it to be a surprise for him."

"Don't worry. Good-bye darling." He gave Ginny a gentle kiss to her lips, and then apparated to the Ministry.

"Ginny, I must be going myself. I may take Remus with me. But I doubt I buy any lingerie with him there. Have a great day and tell your mother I said Hello! I'll be in touch."

"Good-bye! Hermione."

The flames turned back to gold and red and Hermione was gone. She quickly showered and changed, then headed down to Remus' and Sirius' chambers to see if she could catch him. Surprisingly, he was headed in her direction and they met halfway.

"Hermione. I was just looking for you. I thought about going to Hogsmeade today, and I was wondering if you would care to help me with a bit of shopping?" It seemed they were on the same wavelength today.

"I was just going to ask you the same thing. Sure I'll help you, but I may need help of my own. I'm not sure yet though."

"Certainly. Have you eaten breakfast yet?"

"No, I haven't. I thought I would wait until I got to Hogsmeade and eat at the Three Broomsticks."

"That's fine. I haven't eaten yet either. Let's go then. Do you need to get anything?"

"Nope. I have it all here. Come on, I'm starving."

~*~*~*~

After they ate breakfast and discussed what Sirius and Severus would tell them, they headed out into the streets looking for the shop Remus had told her about. You could get anything personalized in there, anything engraved, and he was looking for a present for Sirius' birthday. It was in two days and Remus wanted to get him something really nice.

They found the shop, which just happened to be next to Fred and George's joke shop. After buying a large amount of chocolate and jokes from the twins, they entered the dusty old shop, hoping that Remus was successful in finding the present for Sirius. A little old wizard that reminded them a lot of Flitwick greeted them and inquired as to what they were looking for.

"My companion's birthday is in a couple of days, and I am looking for something very personal. Not too flashy, but not too drab either. He has impeccable taste, and I wish to give him something of great significance." Hermione realized that Remus himself had impeccable taste as well. He spoke very eloquently and his accent was very sensual. She could easily see why Sirius found him irresistible. He along with her, must have a weakness for silky, seductive voices. All in all, Remus was a very attractive man. And Sirius was very lucky.

"Ah, I see sir. I think I have just what you're looking for. But it is in the back room. Wait here for just a moment." They waited patiently as the little old man returned carrying a few things. One was a pewter wand box, charmed so you could change the inscription daily. Another was a platinum pocket watch, and the last nearly scared Remus to death. It was a silver dagger, engraved with a list of names of previous owners. He nearly fell over when the man tried to hand it to him. Hermione, being as observant as ever, gently shoved the man's hand away, and stated that none of the items he had brought out would do. When he retreated into the back room once again, Remus took the opportunity to thank her.

"I want to let you know I appreciate what you did for me."

"It's really no trouble at all. I know what would have happened to you if you were to have touched that thing."

"I really should have been more explicit in what I am seeking." The little man returned carrying a platinum chain with a dazzling ruby encrusted in the square shaped pendant. Remus knew immediately that it was the perfect gift for Sirius. It was Harry's birthstone, and he knew Siri would love it.

"It's perfect. How much?"

"One hundred galleons, exactly." Remus being the bargaining man he was, was determined that he wouldn't pay over eighty galleons for the piece.

"How about seventy-five?"

"Sorry sir, I cannot take less than eighty-five for it." Hermione took the chance to butt in, hoping to get him to throw in the wand box as well.

"What about ninety, and you throw in the wand box." Remus looked at her as if she was nuts, then just shook his head when the man declared they had a deal.

"I'll just wrap these up for you. I'll be right back." The man retreated into a side room, as Remus asked her what she was getting at.

"Well, I'll throw in the fifteen galleons, and give him the wand box from Severus and I."

"Thank you Hermione. I just know he'll love them both."

"I know he will too." Remus gave her a warm hug, and for the first time in a long while, he felt he finally had a new friend. He knew from then on, he could confide in Hermione about anything and everything that may be troubling him. It wasn't easy living with Sirius Black, and being in love with him was even harder. He knew she could sympathize, she had to deal with Severus. Once the man handed him the gifts, and they both paid, they headed down to the lingerie shop Hermione had been avoiding. After the hug, she knew she could trust Remus wholeheartedly and she really did want to get the surprise for Severus.

"Are you sure you want to come in here with me Remus? I know it is a lot to ask of you, but if you don't want to come— Well, I understand." He took one look at her and realized he did want to go in with her. She had helped him find the present for Sirius, now he was going to help her find the present for Severus. Even if he was forced to go into a lingerie shop.

"Yes, I am coming in. Now let's go." Once inside the store, Remus at first wondered why he agreed to this. There were so many different items and designs, that he wondered how women even decided on something. He saw crotchless panties, many leather outfits with certain parts missing, bras with the nipples open, see through clothing, and something he did like. Edible underwear. In six flavors no less. He was even more surprised to see that they had clothing for men as well. He found a delicious looking pair of leather shorts for Sirius that laced up the front. Making a mental note to check the price, he searched for Hermione. He found her standing in front of the checkout, inquiring about a particular nightie set.

"Yes, Miss. I have it in a soft peach, with a buttercup design, a bright yellow with sunflowers, every shade of blue, and I even have it in a red satin. It is enchanted to custom fit itself to the wearer. It is a bit more expensive than most ur iur items, but it is well worth it."

"Can I see one of each design?"

"Why sure Miss. Right this way." Hermione followed the sales clerk to a changing room and she handed her each design. Remus took a seat outside the room where he could give her his opinion. The first she tried on was the soft peach design. Remus told her to try the sunflower design. The peach clashed with her skin tone and her hair color.

The sunflower print was a bit bright, and again clashed. She tried on light blue, midnight blue, powder blue and even a deep royal blue but they all weren't the right one. The last one was the red satin, and Hermione had began to lose hope. She felt the red was too much for her, but tried it on anyway. When she opened the door, Remus nearly fell out of the chair. She looked stunning. Her tiny belly was beginning to show signs of pregnancy and was accented by the open front. The red satin was a perfect color for her.

"That is perfect! I would not even try on anything else. No other style would look half as good. I promise you that. You are an honest argument to make me reevaluate my lifestyle. Honestly!" Hermione felt she did look good, but didn't expect such a statement from him. Judging by his reaction, she definitely would buy this one. If it made a gay man want to turn straight, she could only imagine what it did to Severus.

"Are you sure Remus? The red isn't too much?" She did try to act a bit apprehensive. She didn't want to seem too eager.

"I am sure. Buy it. If you don't, I'll buy it for you. Severus is a really lucky man."

Hermione felt all warm and fuzzy. Severus always complimented her, sometimes more than ten times a day, but it was nice to hear it come from another. "Thank you Remus. And Sirius is a lucky man too!" She quickly changed and followed Remus to the rack containing the leather shorts he wanted to purchase for Sirius. "Ooh, a little risqué don't you think?"

"I think he'll love them."

"Are you going to wear them or is he?"

"Well I'd thought about buying them for him."

"How about this. You buy them for yourself and wearing them will be for him." Remus liked her way of thinking.

"Very interesting idea Hermione. I shall get them." They paid the clerk and Hermione finished buying a few pair of robes and a more comfortable pair of shoes. They arrived back at the castle near three, and Hermione desperately wanted a nap. Remus left her at the dungeons entrance and they agreed to meet for dinner. She had an exciting day and was very glad that she and Remus got to take time to learn a bit more about each other. Harry was right, he was a wonderful person and it was a travesty that he had been bitten by a werewolf.

After dinner, they retired to the Remus' and Sirius' rooms to exchange a few books that they were discussing. She had a few muggle novels he hadn't read yet, and he had a few books of English poets that she wanted to read. Around eleven, she returned to her room and after a hot, relaxing bath, fell asleep reading one of the books she'd borrowed from Remus.

Sunday morning, she placed a dinner order with the elves and cleaned up the dungeons. She hadn't felt like unpacking all of her things since she'd moved down there, and she decided to do it to pass the time. After she had finished, she quickly showered and got ready for Severus' return. She pulled her hair up in a small clip, letting a few curly tendrils droop along her back. After slipping into her lingerie, she transfigured a pair of black flat dress shoes into satiny red slippers, with a puff of fur along the toes and a very tiny heel. She didn't want to take any chances on falling and hurting their baby.

She placed a warming charm on their dinner, and lit only a few candles in strategic places. She placed a classical record on Severus' treasured turntable, and waited patiently for her lover to return home. Just as she poured a few glasses of sparkling cider, she heard the door open. She quickly went to the doorway between the foyer and the parlor, and waited for him to notice her.

Severus placed his cloak on the rack and turned around to see a delicious sight. Hermione was standing seductively in the doorway wearing very flattering lingerie. "My, my. What a sight to return home to." He strode over to her and gave her a very long awaited kiss. "Someone has gone shopping I see."

"Yes, I did. Yesterday in fact. Remus accompanied me to Hogsmeade."

"I'm glad you weren't forced to go alone."

"No. We had a very nice day."

"Good." He picked her up and cradled her in his arms while kissing softly on her neck and earlobe. "Now, I must eat, I'm famished." He carried her off towards the bedroom, and she was a bit confused as to why they were in there if he was so hungry.

"I thought you were hungry Severus?"

"I am my dear. However, I seemed to have skipped the main course and went straight to dessert." He heard no more protests as he removed her very wet panties.
