CHAPTER 1

Okay, yes, yes! I must admit, perhaps I've been rude, but come on, he really was an aggravating bonehead. He actually tricked me into acting the way I did. You see, you've got to admit that I am right, it was all Lupin's fault, not mine.

Well, I'll tell you about this morning, so you will see that I am not as immature as this dunderhead thinks I am.

I got up and I was actually in a pretty good mood. Then I got dressed and all that and I went downstairs, to the jerk named Lupin.

And I was on time, you know, on time and not in a hurry.

"Good morning," I greeted him and he gave me a smile which somehow reminded me of the features of a dog.

I just sat down to have some breakfast and I felt him staring at me. You know, I tried to ignore it, to stay cool, to just, well yeah ignore it.

"Today you have your first exam, don't you?"

I merely nodded, but come on, I did give a response.

"Have you used your study time wisely then?"

Hm, that's when I shrugged. You know, those were those tricky questions I hated. If I said yes and got a bad grade on my exam, I'd be in trouble for lying. If I said no he'd get sad and say how disappointed he was. So shrugging was the safest, honest answer I could give.

"Verbal answer please."

I kinda really found his voice pleasant, but it sometimes just seemed way to strict.

"I hope so, Sir." Oh yeah, I never really got out of the habit of calling him Professor Lupin or Sir, even though he said I could use his given name. Well, it just feels wrong to call him Uncle Remus or Remus or anything like that.

"Oh Harry, me too." His stare almost made me shrink. After that he said nothing for a while. Thank Goodness.

As soon as I saw him opening his mouth for the second time, I knew that the next talk would be even worse.

"Professor Snape asked for an appointment, he said it concerned you and Ron, perhaps you would like to tell me what this is all about?"

I went pale and felt the blood draining from my face. Which of the many things which I had done was I supposed to tell him? "I dunno, Sir. We might have had a little disagreement, but nothing really bad." Oh now, his face. "Come on, you know what he's like."

Now my new Guardian almost stared me into the ground. "Come on you know what he is like?! Yes I do, he is an elder, he is your Professor, he is one of my friends. I might have had and still have some difficulties with him now and then, but that is none of your are to treat your elders with respect."

My insides began boiling with anger. I have already been through school once. This weirdo made me repeat it.

"Come on, you know that I have my problems with Snape-",

"Professor Snape,"

I groaned. "Sir, I went through school already. I am eighteen stuck in the body someone who is barely eleven years old. But do you know what's the worst about that? You are all treating me as if I really were eleven. Yes I decided to deage myself, I know, but I wasn't expecting that even you would not see me anymore. You are just seeing the little new Harry, not the original one, not me. Nobody does!

Okay, I said I was angry. Sometimes I just explode. I have a temper, I know that. I just should have stopped right then and there and I would have been fine, but no... he still looked at me and I swear he smiled as if I were a child throwing a tantrum.

"And besides, this bloody git never even thanked me for saving his life. Never! He said that he by some miracle just survived. You know how that felt? Once I paid my debt and then he grants me nothing." Lupin looked at me with a fatherly look. You know, a loving but strict glare.

"Harry, firstly Professor Snape is not a bloody git, as you put it, and secondly have you ever granted him anything? Have you ever thanked him for saving your life? And he did it more than once, remember that!"

Okay, I never did that, but still. "Oh come on, you know how he treated me all these years! He still treats me badly. Nobody knows that I saved his life or he mine. So come on, why does he still treat me as if nothing ever happened?"

Lupin looked at me in surprise. "You never told anybody you saved his life?"

I just couldn't help it right, my bad. But I always thought that he knew me. "I am not like that. I don't want people always looking at me, the boy who lived, the savior of the wizarding world. So why would I tell them more than they already know? I want them to see me, not the bloody Boy-Who-Lived! Me, Harry! I want them to see me for my own merits!" Okay, maybe I shouldn´t have screamed at him. But you see, he forced me into exploding like that, he forced me into this situation.

"First; you don't ever scream at me again, ever!" He said this so calmly and quietly that it sent shivers of fear down my spine, the tone he used making it sound so threatening.

"Secondly, you are Harry, yes I see the 'Harry' in you. The eighteen year old Harry, stuck in the body of an eleven year old. Fighting with the emotions of an eleven year old, having the temper of an eleven year old but with the knowledge of an eighteen year old.

Thirdly, Harry you are the Boy Who Lived, the savior of not only the wizarding world but the Muggle world too. Get that into your head. That's who you are! That's what's made you the boy you are now!"

Well okay, he was partly right, but he was missing my point.

"Professor, its perhaps just our past. There might just be too much in the past for us to get along. We can't just put everything that happened behind us.

Remus merely laughed. "You see, that sounded like a grown up talking!"

Well you see, he hasn't been listening to me all along. "I am a grown up, God damn it!"

Okay, perhaps I shouldn't have jumped up and sent that chair flying back. Yes, but then as he looked at me the way he did, giving me an oh-you-shouldn't-have-done-that glare. I got up and ran to my room, which is where I am now.

Two Hours Later:

I missed my first two classes, but now I really have to go, 'cause if I don't, I'll miss my exam. But I'll have to go downstairs and he'll see me. I'll see him. But I have to go. You see, he would kill me if I miss my exam. Yes okay, I mean I was in trouble for missing History of Magic anyway, but if I miss my exam he'll for sure do more than ground me for a few days. So there I went. I did not look up as I went through Lupin's office, I kept my head down.

"Harry?"

I stopped dead but didn't turn around.

"I love you, pup, good luck on your exam."

I wanted to turn around and run to hug him, but that would be way to childish. Instead, I nodded and stormed out.
