A/N: Merry Christmas Everyone!! I had THE best Christmas ever!! haha except for the fact that I have a colossal hang over right now, so if this chapter doesn't make much sense, blame it on Tequila!! All right?

By the way I'm so sorry it took me so long to update but I just got in from this Unbelievable rave I mean it was Awesome!!! Oh, and I know Remus' birthday is in May but I just Had to have a birthday chapter.

Day Six - 06/02 - Remus.

What is that sound? It sounds very far away, but then again, everything is far away when you're in a deserted island right? Hmmm coconuts, I think I'll have another one. "Sirius give me another coconut please, Ooh Sirius stop it! You're tickling me!!"

There are those voices again. What are they saying? I think they're calling my name.

Yes! The voices are gone, so now Mr. Padfoot can feed me some strawberries thankyouverymuch.

The voices returned, what is that?? They said something about…water?

Oh no, Oh No!! A wave of freezing WATEEEEEEEEEEERRR!!!!!!!!!

"AAhh!!!" Remus gasped and fell off his bed when he felt the stream of cold water fall over him and three boys winced at the same time as they saw the mass of wet sheets and Remus that was on the floor.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOONY!"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Remus was shivering madly and he looked extremely irritated. It wasn't because they startled him, threw him out of bed and soaked him with freezing water, it was because they woke him up from a very nice dream and Sirius was feeding him strawberries!!

"Remmy don't go all Lily on us, I hate people screaming, and we just wanted to wish you Happy Birthday but we couldn't wake you up! You were mumbling something about Sirius and coconuts?" Answered James grinning like an idiot, throwing Remus a knowing glance

"So you wanted me to have a happy birthday by giving me pneumonia, how nice of you" Remus gave them a murderous look and began to dry his hair with a towel, hiding his face to conceal his blush. Mental note: Put silencing charm on bed before sleeping

"But Moony, someone brought you breakfast in bed, and what was that with the coconuts?" Said Sirius wriggling his eyebrows sexily (or so Remus thought)

"Well I'm not in bed anymore am I?" Remus tried to sound upset but failed, and instead he sat back on his bed and grinned widely "My breakfast Padfoot" He added snapping his fingers once.

Sirius looked surprised for a moment but then he took the tray and put it on Remus' knees. "Here you go Sir"

Remus smiled benignly at him, bit a slice of toast and began speaking calmly "Since today is my birthday, and you three woke me up at an ungodly hour in the morning, with cold water, and interrupted a perfectly nice dream, you'll do anything I ask you to, ALL day, got it?"

The three of them grinned and arranged themselves in a horizontal line in front of Remus' bed.

"Sir, yes Sir!" Said three voices at once, maybe this looked ridiculous to anyone else, but Sirius, James, and Peter knew Remus liked his birthday to be a big deal, even if it was only amongst them. Very few people knew Remus well enough to remember his birthday; it was not that they didn't want to know him better, it's just that Remus never let anyone get close to him, except for the Marauders.

Remus then saw that the usually small note that came with each of his presents was rather large today, he took the parchment and unfolded it.

Happy Birthday Gorgeous

I made Breakfast myself

Today a surprise is in order

Do you like chocolate cake?

Please wear this robes today, they make you look perfect!

Your Secret Valentine

Gorgeous? Well that's a first,thought Remus as he glanced briefly at the foot of his bed and saw a simple black robe. He frowned but shrugged and gave James a side-long glance. "James, pass me the robes"

"Sure Moony Sir" James took the robes and tossed them over to Remus; he caught them and stared at them for a long time until he decided there was nothing wrong with them and put them on.

After he was done with his breakfast and ready to go to lessons, he went down to the common room; there were only a few people there, and as he turned around to open the portrait to get out, all the people that were sitting there went over to him and congratulated him for his birthday. He shook his head and left the tower thinking. That was weird.

Oh fantastic! I'm late for my first lesson of the day.

"Mr Lupin would you care to explain why you're fifteen minutes late?" Uh-Oh McGonagall does not look happy.

"Of course Professor, you see, the thing is all this people stopped me to hug me and stuff"

"Huh?"

He tried gesturing with his hands but they were full, so he twisted around to put his books on his desk, his back to McGonagall.

"Oh Happy Birthday Remus!"

What the-? "I - I'm sorry Professor what was that?"

"I'm sorry Remus I didn't know it was your birthday today, come here and give me a hug!"

A what?!Remus didn't even try to move, but he didn't have to, since McGonagall and almost everyone in the classroom stood up to hug him and kiss him (in the cheek of course, by the girls). Remus simply blushed and thanked them quietly. He sat next to Sirius, behind James and Peter, and turned to them with a questioning glance. "That was weird wasn't it, how did she even know it was my birthday?"

He looked like a lost puppy and James bit his lip to avoid laughing in his face, instead he bent down under his desk. "Have to tie my shoelace" he managed before he collapsed in fits of laughter. At least Sirius had the decency to cast a silencing charm very discretely so Moony wouldn't hear him.

"But your shoes don't even have laces!"

When James came out from under his desk his face was all red and flustered.

"You look like you just snogged someone down there mate"

"Well maybe he was having a good time with his shoes" Said Remus with a smirk on his face "You know, James likes to snogg the weirdest things."

"That would explain Lily of course"

"Shut up Padfoot!"

Sirius looked confused and Peter snickered. "Oh yes, I remember that day we forgot him in that closet, I heard he wooed a muggle biology book."

Like Sirius hadn't heard the story before, he couldn't control himself; that was enough to drive the other two to the edge and soon they were clutching their sides from laughing so hard.

"James, I know… you like bookworms… but isn't that a bit too… much?"

"Oh har har Sirius, and if I recall correctly I'm not the only one who likes bookworms"

Sirius fell quiet immediately. "That, is none of your business!"

"And leave Lily out of this!"

"Well then leave Re-" Sirius stopped himself before he said something really stupid and something tugged at Remus' memory.

"And leave Lily out of this!" "Well then leave Remus out of this"

The voices rang in his head like church bells. They'd had this argument before. That night in the common room, when he was sleeping he thought he heard them, he dismissed the whole conversation as a dream, but now, this was real, and maybe it was real back then. But what could they possibly be talking about lily and him? Someone who likes bookworms. He felt something like a big realisation was going to take place, if only he could get the thoughts to the front of his mind, he was so close. And then the bell rang. And all possible realisations were forgotten. Damn.

This sort of weird behaviour towards him was shown by all of his teachers and most of his friends, and not only when he was in classes, but also in the corridors, at lunch, people hugged him everywhere. It was as if this morning, every single student at Hogwarts received a memo reminding them it was his birthday and asking them to please congratulate him.

When he was walking, surprisingly alone, to the common room after being hidden in the library all day after lunch, since Dumbledore thought it wise to give him the day off because of his birthday!! What is with the world today? thought Remus as he opened gave the Fat Lady this week's password and climbed to the portrait hole.

"SURPRISE!!!"

Remus almost fell out of the portrait again from the shock but someone caught him right before he hit the floor. There was a huge banner at the end of the room that looked hand made. The furniture was pushed to the walls, so there was plenty of space to walk around; only a large rectangular table with a big chocolate cake on top and Sirius was standing next to it. After everyone wished him happy birthday again, Sirius cleared his throat loudly and raised his bottle of butterbeer.

"I'd like to make a toast, for my friend Remus, who is the most amazing person I've ever met" "He's caring and selfless, and he always knows what to say and when to say it. don't think that means he's boring, though, all those times you've seen him in the library, he's probably just finding some spell for one of our pranks" He winked at Remus and the room laughed. "You're the best Remus." Their eyes locked for a second. He raised his glass and looked around the room.

"Happy Birthday Moony"

The house echoed Happy Birthday and they resumed with the party. Remus was getting a little sleepy by midnight, and with this party he had almost forgotten that Sirius forgot to get him a present, after all he threw him an amazing party. He began to say his goodbyes when a hand grabbed him by the elbow and steered him to a dark corner.

"I hope you didn't think I forgot you present Moony"

Sirius was smiling sweetly and Remus felt his knees go weak. Sirius pulled a small velvet box from his robes and handed it to him carefully. Oh my god an engagement ring!!

Stupid mind!

When Remus extended his hand to take the box, his fingers touched Sirius' and he felt electricity run through him. Shivering slightly, he opened the box and saw a moon shaped pendant, it was made out of the same material as the chain he got from his valentine.

"It's, y'know if you get tired of that amber thing"

When Sirius spoke he realized he'd been quiet for almost a minute. Without thinking he launched himself at his friend and embraced him tightly. "Thank you so much, It's perfect" When they pulled apart there was an intense look on Sirius' eyes and Remus was sure he mirrored it. Their faces began to get closer and closer, their noses were only a few inches away and Remus felt his heart was going to explode.

"Yo Moony, Padfoot what'cha doin'?"

Remus turned away abrubtly and he felt so embarrased of what he had almost done he escaped quickly from the scene, claimed to be tired and went up to the dorms. Of course, he didn't hear how Sirius screamed at James and beat him up with a party hat.

All in all, when Remus returned to his dorm that night, he thought he might've gotten more hugs today than in all his life put together; it was a little annoying, but it was, nice; people greeting him all over the castle and his friends bringing him stuff or entertaining him at dinner 'at his request'. It was a very nice birthday indeed.

When he was changing into his pyjamas he realized there was something stuck to the back of his robe; holding them at arms length he saw that it was words.

'Today Is My Birthday!! Was written in a messy scrawl but were quite visible. Realising this was why so many people congratulated him he felt a huge smile grow on his face; so this was the famous memo, every time someone looked at his back they hugged him. Down on his bed was a mall piece of parchment as well.

Sorry gorgeous, I just couldn't resist. See how many people love you? If only you would let them in Remus.
