ch2; the plan

Marina woke up in an unfamiliar room. She was confused, but when she looked to her right everything came back to her. She couldn't help but smile when she saw Remus sleeping, he looked absolutely adorable. Unintentionally, she bit her lip as she recalled last night's events.

"Good morning" she suddenly heard Remus say in a raspy voice.

"Oh I didn't know you were already awake."

Remus rolls over and buries Marina in a giant hug, while mumbling into her neck "I wish I wasn't"

She giggles as she kisses his forehead.
"You're cute"

Remus smiles,

"You're cuter"

After a while of just cuddling, they decide to get up. Remus is in the kitchen making tea while Marina is trying to find her shirt. Eventually she gives up and just puts on one of Remus' sweaters and just her underwear, seeing as she's not in the mood to wear jeans.

When she came into the kitchen she saw the cutest thing, Remus was dancing while dipping a tea bag in the teapot. In the background, the Beatles were playing and he was singing along. She lent against the door frame with a smile on her face, how can a man she had just met make her feel so happy.

When Remus finally looked up, he froze a little bit. She was wearing his sweater, his old and shabby sweater. But for some reason she looked so good in it. He felt a little guilty that he didn't have something better for her to wear, but the smile on her face said enough.

"Here"

He handed her a mug. He couldn't help but stare at her as she wrapped her hands around the mug and closed her eyes as she breathed in the scent of earl grey. She was so beautiful, even though he barely knew anything about her. He knew things like how she wanted to go to Argentina and Greece. Or that her favorite book was Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen. But he didn't really know her, he didn't even know her last name. Yet, he had slept with her. He had slept with a random girl who is probably ten years younger and as much as he tried, he couldn't feel guilty or sinful. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, inside and out, and even if they were to never see each other again, he would be content.

His thoughts were interrupted by her soft giggles, she said

"What are you smiling about?"

"You"

They made eye contact and within seconds they were back into a passionate kiss. After a few minutes, they finally parted to catch their breaths.

Marina looked into his eyes with a certain vulnerability that would make anybody melt as she asked
"Will I ever see you again?"

She didn't know why, but the idea of never seeing him again scared her. In the short time of knowing him, she had grown to like the way he touches her. She didn't want to loose that.

"I would love to, but I need to be honest with you. I am in no state of a serious relationship. I got a new job far way, which will start at the end of summer."

She looked at the ceiling for a few seconds, deep in thought.

"Hmm, how about this? We just have fun together for the next two weeks, no feelings involved."

Remus was hesitant for the plan, because he knew he had already broke the no feelings rule. But, deep inside, he couldn't find the power to say no as that would mean he would never see her again.

"Okay, it's a plan."

With that, he picked her up and ran to the bedroom. Marina didn't know what was happening and was giggling like crazy. She was happy, even though she knew they'd have to say goodbye, they found a way to postpone that.
