A Grimmauld Christmas

Hunter looked up To tonks and smiled to her as she babbled about her aplogies and self-degrading "Tonks.." he said again with a small gentle laugh "Please it's perfectly fine, no need to feel terrible," he shrugged unabashed by the accusations he probably got them alot behind his back, he smiled again "Relax Tonks," he shook his head with a smile "i'll see you later" he smiled then read his book for a moment before hearinf Ron Hunter got up instantly instintivly and looked around to see nothing then to follow Ron's gaze to the small spider, Hunter chuckled lightly and moved over to it taking the spider within his hand cupped, he headed to the window, opening it and dropped the spider out onto one of the bushes. before he shut the window again. and turned to hermione who now adressed him he shook his head "no harm done" he mused, and moved back to the sofa, and picked up his book resting it in his lap he then removed his glasses and looked to her "it's as i said perfectly fine, I no doubt get that alot, it's not something i do intentionally"

Pandora eased down the stairs, after hearing voices. She brightened up seeing Hunter had returned. Then seeing Tonks was there too.

"Sorry everyone..I had to have a lay down..not been feeling to well. Is everything alright? Not sure I can handle it if it's not", she laughed lightly.

"How are you Tonks", she asked making her way over to Hunter. "How are things", she whipered by his side?

Hunter lifted his head to see Pandora above him slightly he smiled "okay yes, Ron had a small go at a Spider, mis-communication was had, but now sorted, and Harry's just gone out briefly for fresh air, don't worry, he's safe i can still sense him slightly, he's just down the road." he smiled and marked his page again placing the book and his glasses ontop on the table, picking up his herbal tea he finished it off, but cupped his mug still for the small warmth. and he replied to Ron "no one, Harry wanted to be alone, so allow him that time, he's safe, he's within range, and he'll come back when he's ready"

Hunter looked to Hermioned and Ron "I'm sure Harry will be perfectly fine he has his invisibility cloak, he's in the park, if he goes any further i'd loose him but i can still jsut about sense him there" he added he didn't notice what looks where shared "Harry is capable you as his best friends should know that, give him time, he'll come back, he promised he would" he added then looked to hermione "no the best thing you can do for him hermione is to leave him be for the moment, trust me, i've spoken to Harry about this when he left before, he needs this time alone hermione you have to give him that" he then looked up to Pandora "don't worry.." he assured her and leaned up a fraction not quite reaching her lips so he kissed just under her jaw before he looked back to the other two "anyway, it's Christmas soon, what say you that we liven up this place alittle, christmas decorations?" he offer then smiled to Pandora, decorating was he knew Pandora's specialty, he then rose and took his empty glass out to the kitchen and washed it up, thoughful.

(i gtg people be good love ya all lol, night post tomorrow please pleaseeeee don't do to many posts lol thanks night!

Hermione looked back at Hunter and nodded.
"Ok.. I think you're right." She watched him kiss Pandora, shooting her a glare before picking up a random book and hiding behind it. Upside down though it was, the pictures were interesting, or so she claimed them to be.

[[ Hehehe. Byee. xxx ]]

Remus heard the shouts and needed to know what was going on. He popped hos legs over the side and pushed himself off the bed.

He made his way down and looked up and down the corridors ".. what is going on?" he asked half asleep and with a yawn after dozing off upstairs.

"..Hard to with all the noise" he said walking into the room yawning again ".. what happened?" he asked taking a seat next to her feeling a little uneasy about sitting with anyone else for the moment. ".. heard a lot of shouting.. " He closed his eyes for a moment before looking at his watch and seeing the time ".. getting late, is everyone staying here tonight?" he said looking back to Tonks.

"What happened this time, I am sure this isn't him, well there is something more to it than Harry just being stressed, we all are, this is the second war for me, have lost some many, but I am not biting peoples ears off, I think Dumbledore might know more than he is letting us know.. but.. well I think we will have to wait and seem.. but it doesn;t mean the others should be like him.. I am more upset with Ron and Hermione," he sighed and took his wand from his pocket and used it to accio himself a glass of wine and a few mincepies.

"..I am sitting down.."he said with a mouthful of mincrpie ".. well I forgive Harry as I know something is wrong with him, and he needs help.. the other two are another matter, they will have to see I was just supporting Albus and my friends who were killed.." He took another bit of another pie. "..I just want to get myself on track I am going to Hogwarts if they want me there or not, I need work, I need money and I need to prtect the students as best as I can.." He looked back to Tonks with some of the icing sugar on his tash. "Thank you for listening to me."

".. what do you mean you made it worse? what did you say." he asked looking confused and and concerned. "but yes I agree friends and family are what keeps us going, that is why I hate all this.. I have no family, but my friends are as good as, and I hate fighting with them.. I am sure you know me by now to know that... but I can only take so much."

He brushed the rest off with his thumb and brushed it off on his cardigan. "Sorry.. but I can never have enough of Molly's cooking, looking forward to Christmas.." he said licking his lips, clearing feeling better after thinking about food.

"I think I would have to of been down here to Understand it better, but after tonight and what them brats said.. I don't blame you for getting defensive, I am sure when Christmas comes around, things will be better, I am going to see if I can stay at Pandora's with them till I have things straight and once I calm down, and they do too.. just can;t take it here, and with the full moon coming, be best for all of us if I go for a few days..I will go to the Leaky Cauldron when I can, I am sure you will be welcome there too.."

"You are right about Molly's cooking being heavenly, I wish I could cook like her, it would get me working more instead of eating all her cooking and getting fat." he chuckled before having some more wine
