Adena and Regulus came back to Grimmauld Place and climbed up the stairs until the last floor. No word was said, not even a sound was heard. He brought his broomstick back where it was before then turned to the girl.

"Are you still sure? I won't do anything if you aren't totally sure." He tried to speak in a soft voice, only wanting to reassure her.

She nodded her head. "Yes. I am completely sure. But... do you want to?" she now asked, suddenly unsure.

"Yes. Don't worry." As he said these words, he approached her slowly, almost timidly, smiling just a little.

"You can always tell me to stop or anything, you know," he said his voice imprinted of seriousness.

She nodded again and Regulus next placed his hand on her cheek, bending forwards for a kiss. It felt soft, so soft, to Adena it felt even gentler than usual maybe. And she loved this. She loved every second of that kiss, she loved every movement and every gesture coming from Regulus. She loved the way his hand fell lightly on her hip, barely brushing against it as if he did not want to be too hasty, but all Adena wished at the moment was to be closer to him. Her arms were around his neck, her fingers lost in his silky curls. It was nothing different from their usual kisses, but their usual kisses would always take her breath away as well. The sensations in her body were just as good, the heat and tingly feeling in her stomach, the weakness of her legs, her crazy heartbeat; she always got it with Regulus.

When he parted away, leaving his girlfriend as breathless as him, she only tightened the grasp she had around his neck, bringing her body closer. He gazed at her face that looked so pretty illuminated by the moonlight coming through the half-open curtains. Her hazel eyes were still shining brightly in the dark. He could even guess the pinkness of her skin and the redness of her lips after kissing. She was beautiful under every light, and he couldn't keep his gaze away. He wanted to savor every moment of that night.

The boy eventually bent his head forwards again, placing soft kisses on his lover's face, slowly letting his kisses follow her jawline before diving into her neck when she tilted her head to the side. Nothing could be better than the feeling of his warm lips on her skin. Adena adored that. And as she could guess, Regulus loved that just as much, never getting enough of tasting that sweet flesh of her. The brunette's long sighs were the only things breaking the total silence of the room, sometimes added by the sound of Regulus' kisses.

She remarked again how much cleavage was exposed when he trailed down to her collarbone, but it only felt better, making her legs going weaker. Unconsciously, she stopped Regulus by bringing his face up again.

With a frown placed on his features and worried eyes, he asked her, "Is everything okay?"

"Yes... it's just... can we go to the bed?"

"Sure." He took a hold of her hand and closed the short distance between them and the bed. "There, sit... or lie..."

She chuckled a little and decided to lie down, her head angled towards Regulus who was still standing. She reached out her hand, silently asking if he could join her, which he did. The boy lied by her side, but his body was turned towards her. He looked her in the eyes, before kissing her again, more passionately, with more fervor as well. After a while, the boy let go again. His warm breath went to tickle her skin which made her shiver and then, he restarted his kisses. He was kissing every inch of her exposed skin, Adena couldn't deny she enjoyed the affection even though it wasn't rare coming from Regulus.

"Wait..." she whispered, and he instantly stopped. "Could you remove my dress?"

She wasn't sure, but she might have discerned his cheeks turn pink in the faint light of the room.

"Okay, I'll do it." He grabbed the edge, starting to bring it up and then above her head, but finding some difficulty which made them both laugh. She ended up getting rid of it by herself. Adena who was usually very tidy, let the cloth fall on the floor as she was more focused on her boyfriend's reaction. He just stared at her, his mouth slightly agape, then meeting her eyes after a while.

"You want to continue?"

"Yeah. I won't stop you," she said, smiling at him and he smiled back, offering her a small kiss.

"Just...I think I should remove this as well," he said, and started unbuttoning the shirt he was wearing. When he let it fall on the floor as well, something caught the attention of the girl. The mark on his left forearm. That skull with a snake going out of its mouth, all over the inside of his forearm. It was hideous, she hated the sight of it.

"Adena. Don't look at it."

Her eyes met again the grey ones of her boyfriend. It felt more comforting now.

They were both in their undergarments, but nothing felt strange or awkward, they only started kissing again before Regulus' lips could continue their way on her body. By now, she could admit she was completely addicted to his kisses. Every one of his touches felt like nothing she had sensed from him before, but she liked how new it felt. She couldn't even hide how much she loved his gestures; her skin was forming goosebumps after each kiss.

"You like..?" asked the raven-haired male, a little unsure, as he stared back at her.

"I love." And her eyes showed so much sincerity that his heart beat faster by that look.

Not long after, they found themselves naked under the sheets and Regulus still wouldn't stop his kisses. It seemed like he really wanted to touch and taste every inch of her milky skin, which was becoming redder and redder with each kiss he planted on her body. She had never witnessed such gentleness from him, nor had she received that much sweetness from anyone.

"Are you ready? You can tell me to stop whenever you want, okay?"

"I know, I trust you..."

They looked at each other for a while, pure love and fondness reflecting in both their gazes and maybe a hint of lust. Regulus was gently caressing her warm skin, he loved how soft it felt under his trembling palms, he couldn't help it.

For the next minutes, none of them would stare away, like they were hypnotized by each other's gaze. And maybe it was what was happening. From the moment Adena had noticed the care and comfort in Regulus' grey eyes, she knew she didn't want to look away just for a second. Just like what was happening now. She could stare forever in his eyes, but forever would not even be half the time she wished to spend with him.

"You're so pretty..." he whispered in the silence of the night, his eyes fixed upon her. By these words, he meant she was in fact beautiful, a rare beauty he had never ever witnessed with his own eyes before, but he also meant that she was a beautiful person, with a beautiful soul. He wanted her to realize her true value. Her arms brought him close, leading them to break eye contact. She was holding him gently against her chest. She loved feeling so close to him, it felt like it was where she had ever wanted to be; in fact, she was meant to be in his embrace, she knew it. She finally felt like living when he was giving her so much softness, love, and pleasure at the same time. Adena felt truly alive in his arms when he made her feel so many intense emotions at the same time. She finally felt completed now that they were connected to each other; even their hearts were dancing together.

"I love you..." said the girl between sighs of pleasure she would let out just by his ear and he felt like he was going insane.

"I love you too," he said against the soft skin of her chest. And Adena really felt loved at the moment. She felt special in his embrace, under his every word and gesture, under the pleasure he gave her.

And he loved her even more every time her soft voice said his name. Nothing could sound more beautiful than his name said by the person he loved, especially in such a special moment. It sounded more perfect. For him, no other thing could be heard as he focused on her sweet voice, driving him to a new form of happiness.

At the same time, an incredible sensation of light euphoria spread through her. Regulus was making her feel that. Regulus was always the one to make her feel every positive sensation. Without realizing it, tears started falling from her eyes. But her lips were smiling.

She was letting out quick breathes, Regulus doing the same, and she could feel his head rising up and down the way her chest did. She had no doubt he could feel her frantic heartbeat. But she didn't care, she wanted him to know how much effect he had on her, how he made her feel.

The girl's fingers started gliding through the hair of her boyfriend and he looked up to see her face, realizing with shock she was crying.

"Are you, okay? Did I hurt you?" He was giving her a panicked stare as her eyes remained calm, all bright because of the tears.

"I'm just so happy... Reg you make me so happy..."

Her tears flew down some more and the boy gently took a hold of her head, slowly kissing her tears away.

"I love you very much you know." He had brought her close to his own chest, his hands caressing her brown locks and she was holding onto his waist, wanting him so close, like she wanted to melt and hide into him.

"I know... thank you, you make me the happiest, and not only today." Her tears had calmed down, but her voice cracked a little as she spoke.

"Adena, you can't imagine how happy you make me as well," said the boy as he continued giving her comforting gestures. The young girl, felt so good and so at ease in his comforting arms, enveloped by his sweet scent and against his warm skin. She would never forget such a passionate and intense moment, where their emotions were raw, their hearts open to each other, and their bodies melting into one. The sensation couldn't be felt forever, but it would remain a precious memory.

"I will never forget that moment Regulus."

"Me neither," he murmured, placing one last kiss on top of her head.
