Chapter 8
"Finally our classes are over. Where did you say Rayna was again, Lily?" Peter asked as Lily, James, Sirius, and him walked back to the Gryffindor common room.
"Umm, she was ill last night so she is in the hospital wing," Lily lied. She promised Rayna she wouldn't say anything and she was going to keep her promise.
"Well, why don't we go check on her. Maybe she is feeling better now," Sirius voiced.
"No! I mean, no, I don't think she would want to see us right now. I know when I am sick I don't want to see anyone."
"Well, all right. We can go check on Moony then." They all agreed and went to the boy's dorm.
Once they got up there, they looked in the direction of Remus' bed, his curtains closed. Sirius walked towards the bed, on his way to opening the curtains.
"Sirius! Let him sleep!" Lily uttered. Sirius didn't listen to her.
"Moony! Wake u---Whoow!!!" Sirius yelled when he opened the curtains. The others ran over to see what he yelled about. Remus and Rayna were both sitting up in bed, blushing, though not very much because of their pale faces. James and Lily looked shocked and then started laughing. Peter was outraged, but tried to stifle it.
"Wow, Moony! I thought Sirius would be the one to do it first, but I guess I was wrong,"James said, still laughing.
"It's not what you think, James," Remus said, still blushing.
"Sure, Remus," James said sarcastically.
"No, really! It's not," Rayna said, trying to defend herself and Remus.
"Why were you in here, then? Lily said you were sick."
"Well... I am."
"Wait a minute!" James said. "How did you know that Remus was in here?" All eyes turned towards Rayna.
"It's okay, guys. I told her," Remus told them.
"What?! Why? How do you know she isn't going to tell everyone!" Sirius bursted out. Rayna looked at the floor for a moment before saying:
"Because I know what he goes through every full moon. I know the torturous pain and suffering--"
"Your a werewolf too!" Peter blurted out.
"Yes," Rayna said, looking ashamed. " I am."
"It's obvious now," James concluded. "Rayna didn't look very well for a couple of days and then they both disappear last night. It makes perfect sense. Lily, did you know?"
"Sure did."
"Well, why didn't you tell us?" Sirius asked. "You know we would have been perfectly fine with it."
"Because Rayna didn't want me to tell anyone and I do keep my promises, just like I told you, Rayna," Lily said, grinning. Rayna just smiled back.
"Sirius! Look at the time!" James yelled.
"O great! We're late for dinner! Now our prank will never get to be seen in glory to all of the school!" Sirius cried, looking at the clock. The clock said six o' clock.
"Well, Padfoot, I guess we will just have to wait until tomorrow night," James said, looking disappointed.
"A whole twenty- four hours!? How will I be able to last?" Sirius said in a dramatic voice (which he used quite often).
"Come on, you two," Lily said while dragging Sirius and James to the door.
Peter stayed for a moment looking at the two werewolves in front of him. He didn't pay attention to Remus very much, but sure did stare at Rayna, memorizing every feature of her pale face. Rayna noticed his constant stare.
"Um... Peter? Aren't you going to go to dinner?" she asked. Peter snapped back into reality.
"What? Um.. yes. I am. I just.. well. See you tomorrow!" he said before going quickly out the door, slightly tripping on the carpet. Remus and Rayna looked at the door as if Peter was still standing there.
"Is he all right?" Rayna asked.
"Yeah. He's fine. He is just really shy around girls. He'll open up sooner or later," Remus replied.
"Okay," Rayna said. Remus looked at her and yawned.
"Well, I'm going to go back to sleep. Cheers," said Remus before gently laying his head on his pillow and falling fst asleep. Rayna looked at him for a moment. She laid her head on the pillow next to his and fell asleep, dreaming of two wolves dashing through a forest.
