A.N. This is my Remus Lupin/Other Character Story. It is a work in progress, so bear with me for now. I would love it if you could tell me what's wrong with it and what fits and what's going right with it!
Thanks,

Prologue –Journal Entry-
I was seven when my life went downhill, well it hit rock bottom. My life before then wasn't special either. My parents were either working or taking a vacation, but either way they never paid any attention to me. I learned not to ask for or expect anything. I fended for myself for the most part. We did have a few people who would come over and look after me when they left for one of their important meetings.
One week after I turned seven, there was one of their important meetings. They left for the meeting with their Black Hoods and their White masks. Oh how I hated him for stealing my mother away from me. My father came back from the meeting with my mother limp in his arms. When I asked 'what was wrong with Mommie?' he said 'go back to bed Sweetie'.
After that my Father became more of an alcoholic and would stay out for hours on end. And then he would come home and blame mother's death on me, meaning he would beat me senseless and occasionally yell at me. I started to believe that it was my fault, When your seven and getting blamed you're don't have much thought on the matter.
I had hoped that things would change when I got my letter. But nothing changed. I went into my first year at Hogwarts with a few scars and bruises. After being sorted into Gryffindor, I knew I was in for Hell when I went home for the holidays. You know what's even worse; I'm in the same grade as the Bloody 'Golden Trio'.
Like Granger, I was one of the smartest people in our year, but no one really cared. Oh How I hate Granger. I go unnoticed, Granger is always called on. Every time a teacher asks a question I happen to know the answer to, I raise my hand but Granger is always a second before me and they call on her. I wish just once somebody would notice me, eve if it is just to make fun of me. At least I would know I'm alive and not a ghost or invisible.
There was one and only one reason why I liked Potter; he got our house points every time he risked his neck.
I am now in my third year, and oh my, our new 'Defense against the Dark Arts' teacher is really cute, I mean Hot. My Dad is going to kill me for thinking that.
Reviews? Did you like it, hate it, think it was the worst thing I've ever written, what? I need to know what you guys think...
