( Hermione can feel her entire body warm into a blush when he clarifies that she'd understood him correctly. In a span of only a few seconds, Hermione assesses her options.
Moving in with Remus would mean getting to be closer to him and getting to know him better by spending more time with him, all things she wants.
...but it would also mean he might hear her nightmares. It was one thing when Isaac heard them because she heard his, too, and eventually, they'd gotten into the habit of creeping into one another's bedrooms to wake the other up from those nightmares, give the victim some comfort, and stand guard so they could fall back asleep. With Remus, it might be awful for him to have to hear her having a nightmare. It would certainly be embarrassing for her, that's for sure.
He might see her horrible scar and then she might have to explain how she came to have such an offensive word etched into her skin.
Worst of all, he might actually notice the massive crush she's harboring for him in spite of the fact that it's probably completely inappropriate because he'll grow up to be her teacher someday.
And yet...the words come from her mouth before she can stop them. )
I'd really like that, actually. It's not presumptuous at all.
( Oh, for Merlin's sake, Hermione... she chastises herself. This is going to be equal parts brilliant and potentially the worst experience ever, she just knows it. )

If you're sure, that is.
