(Platonic) Raine Whispers x Child!Reader

Raine couldn’t help but laugh when the child in front of them squirmed. Raine’s hands weaved through (Y/N)’s hair, trying to make it at least look presentable for the day.

“Raine!”

The child began to protest when Raine began weaving (Y/N)’s hair into a braid.

“Sh.. Stop fussing. I’m just braiding your hair.”

Raine said with a slight laugh

“It hurts!”

(Y/N) replied angrily, swatting Raine’s hands away when they were done.

Stitches (Part 2)

Remus Lupin x f!Reader

Part 1

Summary: Remus is still trying to find a way to confess his feelings to (Y/N), but for now he's focused on having fun.

Its been a few weeks since (Y/N) stitched up his favorite sweater for him. Now it was a haunting reminder that he was to weak to express his feelings. All he wanted todo was hold her... Too love her... To help her...

Which was excactly what he was doing now. "Remus! Hellooo?" (Y/N) voice invaded his head. Remus looked startled for a moment, flustered at his previous thoughts. Especially when the girl he was just thinking about was right in fornt of him. "Sorry, (Y/N).." The boy awkwardly said in front of her "Youve been spacing out a lot today.. What ya thinking about?"

Remus' face flushed "Nothing important.. What did you say you need help with?" Remus tried avoiding the questions and it seemed to be working. "Everything!" (Y/N) cried, suddenly reminded of the god forsaken missing potion assignments in front of her. The boy sitting next to her chuckled, pulling out his own potions book from his bag and setting it on the table with a heavy thud.

(Y/N) groaned hearing the thud of the book, knowing todays study session was not going to be fun. Part of that might be just because of the fact that (Y/N) has about 20 missing potion assignments. Maybe she shouldnt have claimed that 'she was going to make the greatest comeback ever seen in Hogwarts history' to James. Now she actually had to live up to that claim.

It was the end of the second semester, a.k.a. when grades start to actually matter. All (Y/N) was really committed todo though, was only do enough assignments to pass the class. Remus skipped through a bunch of pages, only gping through the chapters that were important.

Then (Y/N) and Remus started slowly chipping away at her work assignments. A few hours later they were finally finished, answering the last auestion on the last paper and setting it in the pile of other finished papers. "Yes!" (Y/N) cheered as Remus let out a sigh of relief.

"We can finally leave!" (Y/N) smiled happily "Hey do you want to go to the lake later?" Remus asked, glancing over at (Y/N) as he put his things away "Sure, whose all gonna be there?" she quesntioned, pulling her backpack on her shoulders. "Sirius, James, Peter, maybe Lily as well." "Alright, meet you guys there!" (Y/N) grinned before walking away from Remus.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Y/N) kept her word for being there, at first Remus didn't think she was gonna show up. That was until he saw her in the distance. It was late afternoon, the sun was still in the horizon, but it was sure to turn dark within the next few hours. Remus sat near the water reading his latest book. Although he discarded of it momentarily to greet (Y/N). "There you are, I thought you bailed on us." Remus spoke, almost ashamed of thinking that of (Y/N).

(Y/N) gasped dramatically, "You think your bestfriend would bail on you?" (Y/N) questioned playfully as Remus put his hands up defensively "Hey-! You were the last one to show, as usual. What else was supposed to think?" Remus shot back rolling his eyes slightly. (Y/N) laughed, which was interrupted by James coming over and dropping a fish in front of the two. "This is the fish pile- ill be back" James ran back into the water, leaving the pair very confused of their friend's intentions with his 'fish pile'.

"Why do we need fish?" Remus questioned (Y/N), hoping somehow she'd have the answer to this question. "Its James. That's why." (Y/N) answered, slipping her shoes off. Turning her attention to the water in front of her, she saw the rest of their friend group Merlin-knows-what. The only true answer to that question was that they were causing havoc, as always.

Remus had his book in his hands again, looking up at (Y/N), expecting her to be in some sort of bathing suit. Instead she was walking towards the water in the shorts and t-shirt she came in. "These things need to stop surprising me.." Remus muttered to himself.

Remus then heard another pair of feet crunching in the sand behind him. Turning his head he saw Lily, James beloved crush, which Lily and basically the whole school knew. "Hi, Lily." Remus smiled at his friend as Lily did the same "Hey Remus! I see the others are already at each other's throats.." Lily commented, looking at the commotion coming from the water. Turning his attention back to his chaotic friends, he sees what is obviously James and Sirius going at it, probably something about James's 'fish pile'.

"Just as usual.." Remus sighed slightly thinking of all the times he's had to break of fights.

Remus' eyes wandered to (Y/N) as they usually did. He wanted so badly to have told (Y/N) his feeling for her when she was stitching up his sweater. To have her close to him like that again, to feel her hand in his. Remus wanted nothing but to tell (Y/N), to have his feeling out there. He wanted to shout and scream his feelings, in hopes that (Y/N) would just know they were for her.

Even with these emotions that get bigger by the day, Remus didn't want to ruin their relationship. He didn't care if he never gets to tell (Y/N) his feelings for her if it meant their friendship would stay how it is forever. The worse fear Remus has is (Y/N) breaking his heart and then breaking apart their friendship.

"You should tell her." Lily suddenly pipped up. Remus jumped a bit, forgetting Lily was there. Instead of standing, she was now sitting next to Remus. "Why don't you?" the girl questioned. "I don't want it to end our friendship." Remus answered, it was the simplest answer he could think of. He didn't say how he was scared he didn't know how to live without (Y/N), he didn't say how he was worried how it would effect his other relationships, how he was scared all of his friends would shun him after confessing his feeling to (Y/N).

Although, all of it lead to one thing he dreaded admitting. Remus was scared of loneliness. When (Y/N) left, he didn't want her taking a piece of his own heart with her. That wouldn't happen if (Y/N) didn't know she had a piece of Remus' to begin with. Sure there was the possibility of his other friends not leaving, but (Y/N) was different than them. She's been Remus' friend as long as he can remember!

"You guys could still stay friends if she rejects you." Lily pointed out. "Things would be different after.. Awkward." Remus replied like it was the most obvious answer in the world. "I still think you should tell her." Lily gave Remus a reassuring smile before standing up again. "Now. I'm going to go see what those loons are arguing about." Lily announces, taking off her jean jacket and shorts, revealing her red polka-a-dot swimsuit.

"You do that, at this rate they might end up drowning each other before they even finish their spatter." Remus joke d, earning a laugh from Lily as she walked away. Remus picked up his book again, enjoying the sound of his friends in the background.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It had to be at least a few hours before (Y/N) returned to Remus' side. Her hair was dripping wet, her clothes were as well. Remus snickered "What, were you trying to end up being on of the fish in James's 'fish pile'?" Speaking of the fish pile, it had grown since they first started, there had to be at least twenty fish now. The only reason that is though is because Sirius and James decided to band together and catch fish while Peter sat with Lily, trying to subtly scare the fish away.

"How could you! Personally I think I'm beautiful " (Y/N) sarcastically said, flipping her wet hair in Remus' face. "Ew- get your lake water infested hair away from me!" Remus pushed (Y/N)'s head away, laughing at the girl's antics.

"Moony, you wanna walk back with me?" asked (Y/N) "Your done here? Already? You don't want to stay and see James' and Sirius' fish pile grow?" Remus playfully questioned "No, honestly I'm getting kinda sick of seeing them hunched over in the water like that." (Y/N) cringed a bit, it did look a bit puzzling, the two boys watching the water so intently look for fish. Their backs were for sure going to hurt in the morning. "Yeah, lets go." Remus agreed standing up, making sure to grab his book.

Remus had to wait a minute so (Y/N) could put her socks on her wet sandy feet and then put her shoes on. The girl then jumped up "See ya later fish boys!" (Y/N) shouted so they could hear from the distance they were at. They didn't even spare her a glance, to busy watching the water "Pricks.." (Y/N) muttered as Remus snickered.

The two then began walking back to the castle, "So, what book are you reading this week?" (Y/N) broke the silence.

This.

This is what Remus didn't want to loose.

A Song For Little Ears

(Platonic) Raine Whispers x Child!Reader

Summary: Raine finds a child and deicides to care and raise them.

The day Raine found young (Y/N) was cold and dark. The isle was on a verge of spitting up another one of it's nasty storms of boiling rain. As Raine ran down the streets of Bonesborough, they already saw fellow witches outside casting protective spells on their homes in hopes to protect it from the hurtful weather.

As Raine ran past an alley, almost to their house as the rain started to fall, they heard a noise. This wasn't just any noise, but a cry. From the sound of the cry, it was obvious that it had to have been an infant or young child. Raine looked around cautiously, making sure this wasn't anyone's trick to lure witches in. When they decided it was safe, they slowly and carefully walked down the alleyway. There they saw a woven basket on the ground by a stack of crates.

Getting closer, Raine saw a infant in which couldn't be more then a year old. The small child was covered in a blue blanket, which had beautifully stitched stars and constellations. It wasn't an uncommon thing for mother's to put their children up for adoption, but just abandoning them was abnormal.

Raine knew that it would start pouring soon, hurting both them, and the small child. With that in mind, Raine made the decision they thought was best in that moment. That was taking the small child with them, planning on taking the child to the emperors coven after, in hopes of finding someone to take care of the infant.

At this time Raine didn't particularly want a child holding them down, but they had to admit. The child they now held in their arms was very cute. Raine could never forget when the baby looked at them for the first time. The boiling isles seemed to stop, for just a moment when they looked in the child's eyes.

That was one of the few reason Raine decided to keep young (Y/N). There wasn't many good reasons for Raine to keep a child at such a young age, but they had their reasons that were more important then any logical reason Raine should not adopt the infant. Raine didn't even know how to take care of a baby, but that didn't stop them. Hell, Eda didn't even think it was a good idea, and she was the queen of making bad choices!

There was much trial and error with (Y/N), but Raine fought through every one. Weather that be sleep deprivation, colic, and even worries for (Y/N) when their small body falls while trying to sit up for walk. Although there's all those little happy moments that make up for the big bad ones.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was early in the morning. Raine had just awoken from a hard night, (Y/N) had been crying almost all night long. Raine had no clue why, they were stuck by (Y/N)'s crib, trying to figure out why she was still crying. Eventually (Y/N) did fall asleep, although so did Raine. Raine had fallen asleep next to (Y/N)'s crib sitting in a rocking chair, the top of his body hanging over the top of the crib.

Raine, still halfway asleep, felt something pulling on their hair. Well, a certain someone pulling on his hair... Opening their eyes, they saw the precious face of (Y/N). Raine smiled as (Y/N) tiny fingers weaved through Raine's hair. They thought that this would be a cute moment, that was before (Y/N) pulled on Raine's hair rather harshly for a baby. The combination of a tight grip and surprising strength for a baby was not good in this moment.

Raine immediately pulled back at the pain of having his hair pulled out by a baby. Raine held the part of their head that was brutally assaulted by baby hands. That was when they heard the giggle of (Y/N). Raine glared at (Y/N) slightly, hearing the baby's laugh. (Y/N) giggled more at Raine's look, it was almost insulting!

Looking at (Y/N)'s face, Raine knew they couldn't stay mad at them. Raine sighed, the frustration leaving their body hearing (Y/N)'s giggles. They smiled, picking (Y/N) up. As soon as Raine had done this (Y/N)'s hands were on his face, squishing Raine's cheeks. Raine laughed holding (Y/N) close.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Raine's all time favorite memory of them and (Y/N) was one night when (Y/N) woke up in the middle of the night, wailing. Raine sighed hearing (Y/N)'s cries, "Looks like its gonna be another hard night.." Raine said to themself. Raine dragged their feet to (Y/N)'s crib, picking (Y/N) up and mumbling comforts.

Raine rubbed (Y/N)'s back, hoping (Y/N) would just go to sleep. Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Raine's head. Raine sat (Y/N) back in their bed. (Y/N) wails grew louder when Raine sat them down. Raine summoned his violin, beginning to play soft melodies. (Y/N)'s crying ceased, sniffles only being heard now.

Raine played a common lullaby, humming along with it and closing their eyes. They continued playing for a few minutes, until the song finished. Raine opened their eyes, they were immediately relieved to see (Y/N) asleep. Making their instrument disappear, they leaned into the crib kissing (Y/N)'s head before going back to bed themselves.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love parental Raine so much, might just be because of my own parent issues but ill take it.

Stitches

Remus Lupin x (F)Reader

Summary: (Y/N) helps Remus with a hole in his favorite sweater. Which leads to somewhat unexpected feeling almost coming out.

Part 2

Sitting on the common room couch, (Y/N) silently did her potions homework. She hadn't had much luck with potions this year, potions currently being one of her hardest subjects.

Well, she was working on potions homework until a certain group of rowdy boys came into the common room. James and Sirius were squabbling about something, which wasn't uncommon for the two. One might even think they were a pair of sibling fighting over the last cookie, or who gets to sit on mom's lap.

(Y/N) was getting rather bored of her potions homework, so she welcomed the distraction when James and Sirius came to her to settle their dispute.

"(Y/N)! Toffee, the obviously better choice." James says, sneaking the snide comment about whatever the other option was.

"Or Carmel, the actual better choice" Sirius finishes, glaring at James slightly. (Y/N) thought for a moment, before giving them their long awaited answer. Most likely going to end their dispute.

"Neither." (Y/N) answers the two "I think chocolate is better then both of those options." She remarks as James and Sirius groan. "That doesn't solve anything!" James huffs. "Then maybe next time choose an option that's actually good." (Y/N) rolls her eyes at her two childish friends as Remus sits besides me.

"What are you working on?" Remus questioned, looking at the unfinished potions homework in (Y/N)'s lap. "Its my homework. Decided I should probably try to get a good grade." (Y/N)'s mind wandered back to how angry her parents were with her grade first semester.

(Y/N) then noticed the book Remus held in his lap. "What book are you reading?" (Y/N) looked at Remus curiously "Oh! um.. Romeo and Juliet.." Remus answers sheepishly, still harboring some excitement from the questioning him about his reading. A hobby Remus has shown to take very seriously.

Remus showed me the cover of the book, that's when I noticed a hole in his maroon sweater. It wasn't too noticeable from far away, but as you got closer it was easier to see. "Oh, Remus you've got a hole in your sweater.." (Y/N) exclaims, taking Remus' arm to look at the hole in his sweater clearer. Remus must have snagged it on something.

At this comment, Remus' examines the sleeve of his sweater, finding the impurity on his sweater. "Awe, this is my favorite sweater!" Remus groans, obviously saddened at the event of his favorite sweater noy being so perfect anymore.

Suddenly (Y/N)'s expression brightened "I have a sewing kit in my room! I can fix it right up for you." (Y/N) smiles, standing up and pushing her homework to the side. Probably to never pic up, touch, or look at again. Taking Remus' hand, (Y/N) leads him up the stairs to the girls dormitory. Opening the door of my room, Remus looks around like he's just found a new land.

(Y/N) leaves Remus' side to go find her sewing kit. Digging around a few drawers (Y/N) finally found it. After looking around and finding the "Lost treasure", (Y/N) sits on her bed motioning for Remus to sit besides her. Opening her kit, she threads her needle, bringing up Remus' arm to sew up the hole. Taking another little piece of fabric, almost the same shade as the sweater is, (Y/N) stitches it over the hole of his sweater. She cuts the thread, finally finished.

(Y/N) looked up, seeing Remus staring at her intently. When he realized he had been noticed he quickly avoided eye contact, a blush covering his cheeks. "Thank you." 'No problem!" (Y/N) quickly replies. (Y/N) puts the items she used to stitch up Remus' sweater back in the bag containing her sewing equipment. "(Y/N), I need to tell you something." Remus pipes up, seeming very nervous. (Y/N) turns to him, about to put her sewing kit away in the drawer she found it and forget about it again until needed.

"Yes, Remus?" (Y/N) asked, curious to what her friend had to say. Remus seemed to freeze up looking at (Y/N) before adverting his gaze to somewhere else, anywhere he was able to avoid (Y/N)'s. "Never mind.." Remus murmers standing from (Y/N)'s bed and quickly leaving the room.

Although (Y/N) didn't say anything, she knew how Remus felt about her. She didn't say anything.

Thinking about making a part 2 just to get me started on here for a bit.
