My Own Personal Therapist

                                    

                                          
Today was the day I had detention with Lupin. I knew it wasn't gonna be bad and the only reason he gave me detention was because I was sleeping and if he didn't then other kids would think he's a pushover. I walked over to his classroom gently knocking on the door to let him know I arrived "Come in" I heard from the other side of the door. I turned the knob and walked in, I went to my seat I normally sit at and waited for him to tell me what to do.
                          
"So wanna explain what that was in class today?" He asked walking over to me and setting my work assignment on the desk. "No clue what you mean" I lied beginning to do my work. "Why were you sleeping in my class y/n?" He asked "I didn't get much sleep" I admitted "And why not, we're you guys partying again?" He asked, "No, well not the whole night" I defended
                          
"So what kept you up? I've noticed you've been spending most nights with Ron, does that mean you finally asked him out?" He asked "So everyone knew I liked him?" I rhetorically asked "I don't know about everyone but most the professors did, we even had a bet going for some time" he answered. "A bet? About if we'd get together?" I asked "Not if, when, it was only a matter of time" "So who won?" I asked filling in the questions on my parchment. "None of us, we didn't think it'd take that long" He sighed "When did you guys bet and what was your answer?" I inquired.
                          
"We did this 4th year, I thought he was going to ask you to the Yule ball, when did you guys get together?" "This year, on Halloween but it was official on new years" I said "Shit, I owe Trewalney 20 galleons" he replied. "Are you supposed to be cursing in front of your students?" "As long as they don't tell" he laughed "Is he who gave you that ring?" He asked pointing to the ring Ron gifted me for Christmas "Yea, I mentioned it one day and he got it for me for Christmas" I explained.
                          
"Ok enough gossip, what I was leading to about the dorm thing is sometimes spending the night in others dorms can be distracting" he said hinting to something else. "Professor Lupin, I'd prefer if we didn't talk about what goes down in my boyfriends dorm at night" I said "Fair enough" he sighed "But you still have to pay attention in my class" he added
                          
"Yea I know, I'm sorry" I said sincerely "Alright you can go once that papers finished" "Already done" I replied holding up the finished paper. He gave me a hand gesture telling me to go and I began packing up my stuff to leave. 
                          
"Y/n in third year you guys promised not to tell anyone I was- well y'know, you can tell me things without fear I'll say something" he informed. "But I feel horrible for what happened" I admitted " You can tell me about it" He encouraged "Ok" I breathed.
                          
"I had a really bad dream where I really hurt Ron, technically I also hurt someone else but I really don't care about them. I feel like a monster and I want to be around him all the time but I feel guilty and then I feel guilty if I'm not around him, almost as if I'm letting him go without it being offical" I gushed needing to get that off my chest.
                          
"Maybe you should talk to him" He suggested "About guilt over a nightmare?" I asked because I already did that "No about everything" Lupin stated. "What do you mean?" I questioned "Y/n It's obvious there are some other issues at play, and they may not all be because of this relationship. Being a teenager isn't easy, schoolwork we give isn't a piece of cake" he said
                          
"Maybe it's just stress and if that's what the blockage is here then you have to tell somebody these things, you can't keep everything bottled up, you'll stress about things more frequently if you do" he added.
                          
"I don't keep everything bottled up" I defended "Do you talk about your parents?" He asked "It's not particularly my favorite party topic" I whispered looking down at my hands I was playing with. "Maybe you should talk to Draco" he suggested "What! Oh no fucking way is that going to happen!" I replied.
                          
"Going from having a brother who's your best friend for 11 years of your life and then losing him so suddenly is going to cause damage, my guess is that you don't express how you feel about the situation" he said. "Professor Lupin I really don-" but he interupted me "My job as a professor here isn't just to assign work, I want to help kids with issues outside of my class"
                          
"Your good at giving advice" I complimented "Well my second job choice was to be a psychiatrist" he joked and I chuckled a little bit. "You can go now, but give some thought to what I said" Lupin got up and walked over to his desk in the front of the room. I walked over behind him and placed my paper on his desk "here take this" he took my hand placing a piece of chocolate in my palm, I nodded and walked back over grabbing my bag to leave.
                          
"Professor Lupin, thanks for the advice, and the chocolate" "Anytime y/n" he winked before I left closing the door behind me. Never knew Remus could make me rethink everything, I know most likely half of his advice would go to waste but I at least wanted to listen to some of it. 
                          
I was walking back to my dorm tonight, I was just gonna stay there and see Ron in the morning. When I opened the dorm and Hermione and Ginny were in there I greeted then and then flopped on my bed, groaning because of how tired I was.
                          
"How was detention n/n?" Ginny asked "I think I just got a therapy session" I answered "Why are you in here?" I asked Ginny "Hermione was tired of sleeping alone, I personally think she's scared of the dark" Ginny joked "She doesn't sleep in here alone, she's always in the twins' dorm" I said "Y/n" Hermione warned and I laughed 
                          
"Why are you in here?" Ginny asked "I just feel like sleeping alone tonight" I shrugged. "Good we can all sleep in here, it can be like a sleepover, we haven't all been in here in a while" Hermione insisted.
                          
"Yea ok" I said "I'm down, but y/n before you go to sleep go check in on Ron, it was really bad timing for you to say Remus was hot and then get a detention with him" Ginny laughed "Oh god, what did he think we we're doing it on the table" I said partially kidding "Actaully yes, that's exactly what he thought, he was getting really descriptive with it too so go clear that up" Ginny said.
                          
I groaned getting off the bed and walked to the door. "I'll be right back ladies" I said and made my way to Ron's dorm. I gently knocked on the door and waited for him to answer "Harry come in!" He called, I slowly twisted the door knob and pushed it open. He was pulling his shirt over his head "Oh hey it's you" He smiled "I missed you" he added "Yea well who wouldn't" I joked walking over to him.
                          
I wrapped my arms around his waist and rested my head on his chest exhaling at the safety I felt. He placed his head on mine hugging me back "Are you ready for bed?" He asked "Actaully Ron, I'm just gonna sleep in my own dorm tonight" I looked up at him to see his face contort into one of confusion "What did I do?" He asked panicked. "Nothing don't worry, the girls and I are just doing a little hang" I explained.
                          
"Just tell them your not feeling it, I can give you that surprise tonight" he whispered that last part in my ear. "As tempting as that is I already told them I would, plus I think a night away is gonna be good for us" I said.
                          
"Good for us? What exactly does that mean?" He asked "Well just that we'll have some time apart, I won't be smothering you for a night" I answered. "Is this about what they we're saying? I don't think your clingy" he defended "I just want to give you some space, ok now I have to go" I said hurrying to the door.
                          
"Wait, kiss" Ron said and I turned around walking back towards him, I brought my lips to his and kissed him gently, "Ok you can go now" he stated "Good night Ginger, I love you" I replied walking back towards the door.
                          
"Have fun, and don't trash talk me too much" he laughed and I closed the door behind me walking back to my own dorm. When I got back Hermione was doing Ginnys makeup. Hermione wasn't all there which was confusing until I saw the bottle of tequila in her other hand "Y/n your next" Ginny said excitedly. "Oh great" I sarcastically replied. We are gonna be fucked up tomorrow
