HEY!! Well, I was trying to fall 'sleep last night, and this story idea hit me. You hear so many James/Lily stories (not that I mind), and Sirius/randomhotgirl stories (LOL i like those too). But I haven't seen any Remus/randomhotgirl (SB/RL DON'T COUNT why doesn't Remus come first? huh?). So I've decided to right it, because smart werewolf guys are also cute guys who need a story!! :D
PLEASE REVIEW!! I LOVE REVIEWS... a LOT!!
DISCLAIMER: The only one I'm going to put up: WE KNOW JKR writes this stuff (although the random hot girl in this story is mine...)

CHAPTER 1
Remus Lupin was currently laying up in the Head's Dormitory, devouring the latest book he found in the library, Animagi and YOU. He was waiting for the current Head Girl (his best friend Parker) to come out of the shower and give him a turn.
Parker Johnson was Remus Lupin's best friend (besides the Marauders) and the only person besides them who knew about his 'furry little problem'. Remus and Parker had been best friends since before he was a werewolf, and they knew each and every secret about the other. Except Parker didn't know one of Lupin's : He'd been in love with her since their fourth year.
She was beautiful, with wavy brown hair halfway down her back, and big blue eyes. Her hair may not have been the tamest, her complexion the clearest, or her eyes the bluest, but she had the best sense of humor and personality of any girl Remus had ever met.
She was a complete bookworm like himself, and their favorite thing to do would be to sit near their fire in their dorm (only in the Head's dorm) and talk about the latest book they'd finished. Their own personal book club, she'd said.
"Remus!" she screamed, coming out of the shower and wringing her hair dry, "Your turn!"
"Finally," he said, "Is there still hot water left for me?"
"I dunno," Parker replied, "Maybe if your shower is three minutes long."
"Come on Parker, again?" cried Remus, "The werewolf's gotta be clean too!"
"Remus, chill." Parker put her hand on his shoulder, and Remus immediately relaxed.
Remus put his hand on Parker's opposite shoulder. "I am relaxed, but I want to smell good too."
"Then go shower, I'm not stopping you." Parker laughed, she knew Remus never got mad at her.
"You know, when I had to share a dorm with Frank and the Maurauders, this never happened." Remus said, ruffling her damp hair, and getting his clothes.
She ruffled his sandy-hair. "Yeah, but there's a slight difference. I'm a girl." She whispered the last part as if she was telling a small boy a little known secret.
Remus shook his head and rolled his eyes. "My word Parker, just go already."
"Whatever you say."
She left and as soon as she closed the door behind him, he sighed. They were the best of friends, but she would never feel more. She was the type of girl Sirius, or James went for. Well, thought Remus inwardly, at least James is too busy trying to get Lily.
Remus quickly showered, in cold water thanks to Parker, and got dressed. He gathered his school bags and checked the calendar beside his bed.
Only one week until his 'furry little problem' took hold. Again.
He sighed, and grabbed all his books. He ran downstairs toward the Great Hall, catching up with Lily Evans on the way. He could see why James liked her so much, with her red hair, and pretty looks. She even had a intelligent mind under all that. But he knew Parker was the only one for him, even if she hadn't realized it yet.
"Hey Lily," sighed Remus, "Finished the Potions' Essay yet?"
"Oh, of course, that was the easiest essay for me, the Transfiguration one was much harder. Animagi seems so difficult, don't 'cha think?"
"Nah, Animagi is extremely easy once you understand the basic theories." He laughed inwardly. Something Padfoot understood that Lily didn't. Was the world ending?
"Maybe you could help me out sometime?"
"Why don't you ask James, he actually gets it a lot more than I do." Remus tried fixing James and the girl before him together once again, but as usual, it wasn't successful.
"I'd rather ask Sirius for help, and that's saying something." Lily said sarcastically.
"Ok, ok. Point taken." Remus started laughing.
They were at the table for breakfast by then, and he sat himself down by James, and took some toast.
"Moony, hey, I'm so sorry for about what you're going to hear." James said, a worried look coming across hi usually happy countennance.
"What now? Padfoot land himself in the hospital wing? Or wait, Wormtail got kidnapped by Slytherins again?" Remus teased, worried afterwards, for James look still hadn't gone away.
"What is it, Prongs?" asked Remus, "Who is it about?"
"Parker."
Remus tried to act like nothing was wrong.
"What about her?"
"She's going out with Sirius, now, mate, Padfoot just asked her when they were down here for breakfast. They've already gone up to the Charms Classroom." James looked worried about his friend's reaction.
"So? Why would I care? She's just my friend. Actually, no, she's my best friend. I'm happy for her, she deserves a happy relationship. That last one with Betram Aubrey didn't go so well. I should know," Remus said, "She was crying into my shoulder for a whole night."
"I'm sure you're incredibly excited about it." James said dryly.
"Why would I care?"
"I dunno, Moony, maybe you like her? And I don't mean 'best friend' like," James said, using air quotation marks for the words 'best friend'," I mean, like you love her."
"I do NOT like her like that." Remus exclaimed.
"You can tell me if you do, Moony, I'm your friend!" James yelled at him, people near the Gryffindor table starting to stare,"It's not like I would tell Padfoot about it, or make fun of you!"
"I don't like her like that." Remus repeated.
"Ok, whatever." James had finally given up trying to coax his friend out of the secret he already knew.
Later on, in Charms
While everyone was working on the latest set of questions from Prof. Mandera, Remus was writing a note to someone else, while steadily staring at Sirius and Parker the whole time. Parker hadn't even bothered saying a word to Remus the whole class time.
James saw a piece of paper land on his desk. He looked towards Remus, who nodded towards the paper sitting there.
James read, "Ok, maybe you're right. Maybe I do like her, a little. Or alot. Or an insane desire."
James started scribbling on the parchment, then sent it back to Remus.
Remus stared at what he had written back.
"I thought so, actually I knew so. So, how do you plan on getting her?"
