Chapter Six: Waiting
"Oh, god. Oh, god." Sirius was panicking and pacing. Remus groaned as he bled on James' bed. "Oh, god..."The black-haired boy wouldn't stop pacing. He wouldn't stop mumbling.
"Shut up would you?!" James yelled irritated. He was trying to concentrate on healing the fatal wounds that he had inflicted on his friend. His mother was a Healer and had the medical tools but they weren't labeled.
"Where's you mother?" Sirius asked and collasped into a chair. He felt hot tears burn his eyes. 'Why had I never said anything to him? Oh, GOD! MOONY IS DYING AND STILL ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IS YOURSELF!' He felt a surge of self-loathing and then he let the tears flow freely. He was going to lose Moony. And even worse...Remus was going to lose his life.
"Wait...I think..." James pulled a cork out of a bottle with his teeth. "God...please...I'll do anything..." Slowly, he titled Remus's limp head back and poured the red liquid into his mouth. He let his breath go. Now all they could do was wait.
Sirius put his head in his hands. "I can't...stand this." he said through tears. The light of the fire danced on Remus' pale face. James sat down next to him.
"Is he going to be all right?" Sirius asked, anxiously. James studied his face. He didn't want to tell Sirius what he thought. His doubts, his fears and his hopes waged a war inside of him. "All we can do is wait." he answered gravely. And rubbing his temples stared ahead into the fire.
