Description
Remus Lupin always found himself enthralled by the girl with a dreamy far-off look, yet her nose was always stuck in a book, making him wonder if she would ever come to notice him. However, he was well aware that he transformed into a hideous beast on nights of the full moon and perhaps it was for the best that she didn't notice him. Yet, unbeknownst to Remus, the girl, by the name of Belle Devereux has noticed him from day one. It's hard to ignore the boy who always looked as though he had been in a fight in a thorn bush, always with scratches on his face and a tired look on his face. She's left curious, but at the same time, she can't help but feel a sense of pity when she sees him sitting alone on the occasional mornings, looking worse than usual. Taking it upon herself, Belle begins to break the ice between them as she offers him a cup of a tea and a slice of toast every morning. It becomes an unspoken agreement between the two, Belle brings over the tea and toast, but each time, Remus fails to say something. But finally, he works himself up to speak with her and it's the start of an adventure into the great wide somewhere. The two uncover secrets about one another that they never saw coming as they begin a tale as old as time.
