Remus Lupin sat with his head in his hands. He was currently sitting the Prefects bathroom, hiding from his friends. He had jsut been to Madam Pomphrey to discuss an odd accurance that had happened the previous month. He hadn't transformed. He knew that certain types of sickness could do that to a werewolf. All bad ones. So he had ran down to the Med Wing after breakfast. What Madam Pomphrey had told him had made him want to die. He was pregnant.

And that was the reason he was sitting alone in the Prefects bathroom, trying to avoid human contact. Sirius Black would be the worst person to see. After all, he was the father of the baby. You see, Remus and Sirius had, well, "gotten together" after a Halloween party a month earlier. Remus has developed a migraine halfway through the festivities and said he was going back to the common room to sleep. Sirius had gone with him to keep him company. Well, they had ended up in romantic embrace on Sirius's bed, making Remus forget all about his migraine. They had never spoken of it again. They had both agreed the morning after that it was just a one time thing that would never happen again and that it didn't mean that either one was gay, even though Remus had known since third year that he was, in fact, gay.

The door opened with a creak and Remus heard footsteps heading towards the showers. He turned his head to see who it was a found himself face to face with fellow Prefect, Lily Evans. Remus and Lily had been friends since first year and they hung out a lot more now that Lily had started dating James Potter, one of Remus's best friend. Lily noticed Remus's bloodshot eyes and stopped where she was.

"Remus, what's wrong? What happened?" she asked, her voice filled with sincere concern.

Remus contemplated whether or not he should tell her. He decided she was trust worthy. "I went to Madam Pomphrey today, to ask her why I didn't tranform with the last full moon. And, and she told me...Lily, she told me I was pregnant."

Lily clasped her hands over her mouth and sat down next to Remus. She put one hand on his shoulder and looked at him with concern. She knew that he was gay, but she didn't know he had a boyfriend.

"Remus, I'm sorry. What are you going to do?" she asked.

"I'm going to keep the baby. I don't feel comfortable with aborting it." Remus looked at his hands. He wasn't sure if he could look Lily in the eyes and not start crying.

"Remus, who's the baby's father?"

That did it. Remus started crying and he couldn't stop. Lily wrapped him in a hug, feeling guilty that she had caused this. Remus sniffled and sucked in air. He was trying to calm himself down. He silently whispered Sirius's name.

"What?" Lily asked.

"Sirius." Remus clarrified.

"Black? Sirius Black?"

"Yes. Sirius Black. It was at the Halloween party, when I left early. He left with me and it just sort of happened. Lily, I don't know how to tell him. He'll freak out. He'll leave."

"Remus, Sirius is a good guy. He'll step up to the plate. He'll stand by you and by the baby. He will not leave you. And if he does, I'll hex him into oblivion." Lily smiled at the end.

Remus smiled as well. That made him feel a little better about the situation. But not a ton. He still had to tackle the biggest obsticle. Telling Sirius.
