May was one of Remus' most favourite months of the year. He loved the smell and sight of it, the growing warmth, the growing trees, the growing flowers... the growth of everything. Getting close to summer, but it still had the crisp delicasy of soft green leaves, a light chill in the wind and the brightness of spring flowers.
He loved it and thought it one of the most beautiful season as well. And he loved taking walks to enjoy it. Normally he would've done so around his cottage in Wales, but he spent less and less time there, except from the weekends with Teddy and the full moons with Severus. Now his home was in Hogsmeade, with Severus, in every sense of the word. Things weren't easy by far, but they were good. Better than he'd thought possible. And that added to his joy over this season, making his soft smile a little wider as he wandered along the edges of Hogsmeade with no true goal in mind.
He did finally end up at the Shrieking Shack though, and he paused at the path that led up through the old destroyed gate, up to the equally old and derilict house. Even with spring blooming up around it in the wanton way only an old garden gone wild could manage, the place still stood out as bleak and dark to him. Too many memories were connected to the place and even if some of them were good, most were bad. Remus stuck his hands in his pockets, still standing and looking at the house, for a while lost in those memories.
