Time flew fast and the first full moon of the year arrived. The boys had finally grasped their transformations, Remus finally agreed to let them go with him. I glanced at the full moon out the common room window as I sat with Debbie.

"I wish we could be there with them" She said as I looked out the window

"Yes but we can't, it too much of a risk" I reminded her

"Unless.." Her eyes shone bright

"Unless what Debbie?" I asked

"If they can do it, we can!"

"Debbie its complicated"

"They have half the brains we do, we can do it. It'd be a surprise" My best friend stared at me for a while waiting for my response. I knew if I didn't do it with her she'd probably attempt to by herself.

"Fine but we have to be quiet about this" I hushed her as she started jumping with excitement


The next morning we sat eating the table quiet for once, peaceful. Lily looked at me "The boys not joining you today?"

"No idea, just enjoy it while it lasts" we both laughed a moment two soon as the four made their way through the doors. They sat struggling to keep their eyes open.

"Late night I assume" She remarked as she watched the boys practically asleep at the table "I'll talk to you later Amy" With a hug she left to talk to other friends

"When did you get back?" Debbie asked

"About an hour ago" James yawned

"You sure class is a good idea?" I asked them

"If we don't go we'll get detention again, we'll just go and sleep in it" Peter answered rubbing his eyes

"Okay, I'll make extra notes" I smiled at them answered with cohesive thanks

We walked to class the boys sluggish behind us "How's the Matt situation?" Debbie whispered peering behind to check no one was listening

"I like him, he's a sweet boy" I also looked back at the boys "I just don't want them involved yet"

"Bit late babe, they see the way you smile when you're with him" My cheeks went red "Look you'll have to tell them at some point, they won't do anything they just tease"

"What about you then?" I asked hesitantly, I saw her gaze other her shoulder "I know you really like him, just tell him"

"I just don't think he's ready for one girl" Debbie looked away from Sirius and back to me. She'd bottled up her feelings for some time, nearly a year in fact, listening to him go on and on about other girls.


Luckily Potions was not a interactive lesson but rather Slughorn talking through the dangers of many potions. After his lecture he left us to work among ourselves as he approached me

"Miss Lawrence, if you're not aware I hold a dinner each year for selected students, I'd very much like to invite you, this Friday evening" He informed me

"Thank you sir, I'd love to" I replied with that he walked to the next student, Lily of course!

"So you're in the slug club now?" James joked as we all walked back to dinner, the boys finally regaining their energy

"I expected it, Matt said his favourite students always get invited" They all gain a cheeky grin at the boys name "Oh stop it will you, he's just a boy"

"Yes, dear Amy, but not just any boy is he" Sirius wiggled his eyebrows

"Okay, I have a slight crush on him and what?" They all stared at me smiling I knew the thoughts in their heads "Not yet okay"

"Oh come on its been a few weeks ask him out" James pleaded, I just shrugged in response.

"It needs to be the right time" I looked over at the blond sitting with his friends. As we walked back to the common room I felt a hand grab mine and pull me away. Those beautiful green eyes stared down at me

"I heard you got invited to the party Friday" Matt asked his hand still holding mine

"Just this morning" I replied cheerfully "Why?"

"Because I shall also be attending" My heart fluttered "I'll pick you up from your common room at 8"

He let go of my hand and ran to meet his friends, I stood in shock for a second thinking it over, suddenly reality snapped into place. Fuck, my friends had disappeared so I spirted to catch them. Luckily no one had noticed my absence

"Are you serious? We can't go sneaking out for her birthday" Debbie told James, obviously talking about my birthday

"No I'm Sirius" Sirius replied "It's a Friday no one would care"

"Erm, my birthday and I say no" I stated as they turned to look at me Sirius and James had disappointed expressions

"Why must you ruin the fun?" they said grumpily

"Amy come with me" Debbie ushered me away from the boys with no questions asked after some walking we stopped "I found somewhere to practice" She pointed at the wall

"You know that's a wall, right?" I questioned

"Ah but wait" She turned to the wall, magically the a door formed in the stone work I stared in shock. We walked into the room, it was filled with bookshelves and chairs "Welcome to the Room of Requirement"

"How did you-" I began

"I asked Peter where they went, and he told me, he's clueless" Debbie answered with a smile "This is hidden, no one can find it unless they need it. It's a secret. It turns into whatever you need it to be"

I stood in wonder of the large room, this place was perfect. We sat studying the evening away learning about the transformation. I knew it was dangerous, but the books only made it seem worse. I became reluctant to carry on, but I couldn't leave Debbie to do it by herself, she needed a helping hand.
