Using his thumbs, Remus brushed the tears away from her face, gently kissing the newly dried spots. "I want her gone too." He sighed. "The decree just came out. Registering buys us time to figure out how to act. It's easier to plan something when you don't have to worry about getting caught on top of everything else."
Remus looked down at Dora and gently brushed his lips over hers. "The term is done in a few weeks. Once it's over... we could go away together... if you wanted..." his voice trailed off, getting softer and softer as he spoke, unsure if she wanted to get away alone or with him.
