Loony Loopy Moony Lupin: A Remus Lupin Love Story
Chapter 1
"James! Let's get a move on! You're-I-mean we are going to be late!" I shouted down the hall.
Instead of going to Beauxbatons, which is my usual school, I would be attending Hogwarts. My parents finally let me go under my real identity and everything. When I went to Beauxbatons I went under the name Juliette VanHuesen but now, I was Jayde Potter again.
I went under a false name because I am a very "special" person. Put nicely, I am a freak. Mom says I'm not but I know I am. I have been told enough at Beauxbatons. I can still hear them now… Freak girl! Freak girl!
I could move things with my mind and tell the future and even have my wishes granted! This was not normal. James wasn't even allowed to tell his friends, "The Marauders" about me so I am pretty top secret. But this year it is all about to change. James popped his head in my room. "I'm ready, come on!" and like that his insanely messy hair was back down the hallway headed toward the door.
I brushed out my dirty blonde hair one more time and followed my brother through the trap door and out into the entrance way. I don't get out of my room much. I am not allowed because Sirius, Remus, Peter or even this Lily girl who James always talks about might pop in. I doubt she would though, James is always telling me about how she always rejects him. James and I are very close. He is the only "friend" I have. That's pretty sad considering I am a 15 year old girl but maybe I'll have friends at Hogwarts. Maybe I might befriend this Lily!
James watched my float my bags down the staircase and then me sliding down the railing. "I can't wait to introduce you to Sirius, Remus, Peter and Lily!" James said, grinning like the Cheshire cat.
"I can't wait to meet them!" I said back matching his excitement. James took my bags as I couldn't float them out to the car because muggles could see. I couldn't risk that. I walked outside for the first time in months. My skin must have been rather pale. I collapsed into the back seat of the car and soon James joined me after he had shrunk my bags and put them in the trunk. I gave a little squeal of excitement as my parents jumped in the car and we started down the driveway.
"Excited Jayde?" My mom asked.
"OH YEAH!" I said back my livid blue-green eyes bright with excitement.
For twins me and James look nothing alike. I got my hair from mom and my eyes from dad while James got his hair from dad and his eyes from mom. "Now Jaydie, if you get put in Slytherin you will be disowned"
James told me sarcastically. "I'll try my best to get put in the house of The Marauders or whatever you call yourselves" I said and smirked.
James smirked back and said "The famous Marauders! Who wouldn't want to be in a house with them?" James exclaimed.
"Not me!" I shouted back as we pulled into King's Cross Station.
Me and James jumped out of the car, resized our luggage and waved goodbye to Mom and Dad. "Bye Mom and Dad!" I shouted and James just waved.
"Have fun kids!" Dad shouted back and sped off down the highway.
James grabbed my wrist and dragged me into the station. We ran through the barrier onto the platform I had longed to be on for ages. I looked at the scarlet train that had a sign that read "Hogwarts Express". Me and James made our way over to the train and gave the conductor our tickets. "Come meet the marauders!" James said running down the hallway.
"WAIT UP JAMES!" I sang out and he ducked into a compartment.
I sauntered over to that compartment and walked in. In there was James, a very good looking, black haired boy with piercing grey eyes, a blonde, mousy looking, pudgy boy and a boy with light, hazelnut coloured hair and warm brown eyes. "Hello" I said and James stood up.
"Guys I have something to tell you" James started and motioned for me to sit down next to the brown haired boy with his face now unburied from his book.
"What Prongs?" the boy with the grey eyes asked while James sat down next to the pudgy boy who was now sitting in between James and Sirius. I was sitting across from James. "Guys, this is my twin sister Jayde. She was in hiding before because she has amazing powers but now Dumbledore said she should come to Hogwarts because he thinks it will be safer for her" He said all in one breath and heaved at the end.
All of the boy's eyes were wide with astonishment. "Dude, you have a sister?" The black haired boy asked.
"Yeah. Jayde this is Sirius" he introduced pointing to the dark haired boy.
"This is Remus" he said pointing to the boy next to me.
Our eyes locked for a second then we looked away. The Remus boy looked very comforting and warm. "And this is Peter" he finished, pointing to the pudgy boy between him and Sirius.
"Hi everyone! It is great to finally meet you!" I said.
James got up. "Well, I am going to go find Lily. Have you already been to the prefects meeting Moony?" he said on his way out and Remus nodded.
"Why did he call you Moony? And why did Sirius call him Prongs?" I asked Remus.
He bookmarked his page and put the book down. He then turned to look at me. "We all have nicknames for each other. James is Prongs, Sirius is Padfoot, Peter is Wormtail and I am Moony" Remus explained.
"What about me? What can my nickname be?" I asked.
Peter finally piped up. "You can't have a nickname! You're not a Marauder!" he squeaked out.
James walked through the door. "All in favour of making Jayde an official Marauder?" he asked while walking in.
James, Sirius and Remus raised their hands. Peter squeaked out words again "But she's a GIRL!"
"So?" I asked.
No one else cared! Sirius said "Well, Peter, I happen to enjoy girls very much. Especially the beautiful blonde one in front of me" He winked at me and I am sure I blushed a little.
"NO HITTING ON MY SISTER!" James yelled at Sirius.
"Hey Prongs! Just having some fun! Don't get your knickers in a twist!" Sirius said defensively and put his hands up.
"JAMES POTTER NO YELLING ON THE TRAIN" screeched a female voice from the doorway.
I looked to see a beautiful red-headed girl with green eyes like mine except hers were darker. "You're one to talk Lily-Love" James replied, coolly.
"I AM A PREFECT! Hey, who's this?" she asked finally noticing me.
"Hi, I am Jayde Potter" I introduced myself and shook her hand.
"Lily Evans" she said.
"So you're the famous Lily that James has 17 photo albums of at home" I said back.
"That was private!" James told me through a very loud whisper.
Lily giggled. "I think I might like you Jayde" Lily said and laughed.
She joined me sitting next to Remus and begun a heated argument with James. Sirius begun playing Exploding Snap with Peter so I leaned over next to Remus and asked "Hey Remus, what are you reading?"
He looked over at me. We were pretty close and our arms slightly brushed against each other. I hadn't had much experience with boys since I went to Beauxbatons but this felt nice. "A muggle romance novel called 'Romeo and Juliet'"
"When I went to Beauxbatons I went by the name Juliet but I spelt it J-u-l-i-e-t-t-e"
"It's a beautiful name"
"What is the book about?"
"About forbidden love and stuff like that"
Remus inched closer to me. "Read me some?" I asked.
Remus nodded and put an arm around me so he was holding the book with both hands and I could see. I placed my head on his shoulder and he read to me…
He jests at scars that never felt a wound.
JULIET appears above at a window
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!
I slowly drifted off to sleep in Remus' arms and nothing could feel more perfect…
