This is my first story originally posted on Death-Curse.

A/N: I think that chapter three might say chapter two still but it IS chapter three just forgot to change the heading.

Both Sides of Life

Chapter Five: Classes

At breakfast in the Great Hall the next morning, Isobel and Remus kept throwing glances at each other across the hall. He caught her eye and she blushed and turned away.
"Hey Moony! Earth to Remus!"
Remus snapped back and turned to his friends "Huh?"
James snickered "I asked if you wanted to help us with the transformations again... or are you too busy with your new girl for your friends?"
"No, no. It sounds like a good idea. When are we going to do it? Tomorrow's the Hogsmeade trip." Remus said returning to his cooling breakfast.
Sirius threw him a look "Sooo, are you two going to be going to Hogsmeade together?
"Shove it, Padfoot." Remus shot him a look back "How about Sunday? We can work all day on the transformations. You wanted to join me on the full moon right? Well it's less than two weeks away." The other boys grinned. Moony was back and better than before.

Isobel followed the action over at the Gryffindor table. The Marauders were fighting over something. She let out a sigh.
Ursula looked at her from across the table. "What's up? Miss your guy already? Oh, come it's only been one day, not even! Get over it!"
Isobel pushed Ursula out of her seat "Oh, shut up! I am not pining over Remus." She glared at the rest of them after the comment "Are you pining for the fjords?" She looked evilly at them "Don't any of you start."
Titania playfully pushed Isobel "Oh come on. There's no need for that. We aren't going to harass you."
"Much." Isobel shot back.
Titania rolled her eyes "No, I have much more important things to do, like setting up the other Marauders." She looked over at the Gryffindor table. The boys were getting up to leave the Great Hall.
"Hey, don't we have class with them first?" asked Medea noticing that all the Gryffindor 5th years were leaving.
"Bloody Hell! We better get going." Titania cursed jumping up from the table. They all ran after the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw 5th years.

The Gryffindor and Ravenclaws sat semi-quietly as Professor Cadabra drone on and on about different dark creatures they were going to start studying over the next two weeks. "Boggarts, Grindylows, Red caps, Kappas, Werewolves," Remus gave a slight spasm at that "Vampires, Giants, and lastly...Faeries." All The Ravens jumped slightly at that and a few Gryffindors did too. "Now, now students, there is nothing to fear from them. At least not in here. There are no faeries here." Professor Cadabra placated
Titania exchanged glances with the other Ravens. One Gryffindor sitting beside Adrian gave a small smirk. Isobel gave a sidelong glare to Robin Goodfellow. He was Adrian's best friend, but that didn't mean she had to like the little toad. She then slid her glance over to Remus. He seemed busy writing something. 'I bet he understands what it feels like right now. Being called a dark creature! Poor Remus.'
Remus scribbled down his note to Isobel quickly then passed it under the desks toward Isobel. The Gryffindors threw puzzled looks over to Remus and the Ravenclaws threw puzzled looks to Isobel. Isobel pulled open the note:

Isobel,
I want to know if you'd come with me to Hogsmeade this Saturday. Please answer back.
Remus

Isobel smiled down at the note. She scribbled back her answer and passed it back. Remus broke into a wide grin when he read her answer. 'This weekend is going to be great!' He was still grinning an hour later when they headed down to Potions.
"What are you so happy about?" Remarked a cold voice.

Remus looked up to see Snape standing outside the Potions classroom alone.
James and Sirius exchanged glances. "Why hello Snivellus! What a surprise to see you here!" James bellowed. All the students looked over, they could tell a fight was about to begin. Snape pulled out his wand quickly but Sirius had already begun his spell "Expelliarmus!" Snape's wand flew from his hand and caused a group of Gryffindors to scatter to avoid being hit. Snape scrabbled over to his wand but as he went to reach for it "Impedimenta!" cried James causing Snape to fly back hitting the dungeon door. He hit the floor stunned. The door flew open hitting Snape in the head. "MR. SNAPE WHY ARE YOU SITTING ON THE FLOOR? AND WHAT ARE YOU ...CHILDREN DOING OUT HERE? IT SOUNDS LIKE AN EXPOLSION WENT OFF! Get in the class and stop misbehaving! Ten points from Gryffindor..." The Slytherins smiled at this and the Gryffindors groaned. "And Slytherin." With that Professor Screaver walked back into the class and the two groups walked in after him.
The Marauders sat down in their seats and all turned to look at Remus "So..." whispered Peter.
"So what?" he whispered back.
"What did Isobel say?" asked James.
Remus shifted uncomfortably "Um, well..."
Sirius leaned over "Well... Don't leave us hanging."
Again Remus shifted around in his seat. "She said... yes."

The boys sent up a little cheer. Professor Screaver glared at them.
"Why didn't you tell us? You sly old wolf! See it's not just me and Jamesie that can get the girls." Sirius remarked.
Remus rolled his eyes "Gee, thanks there Padfoot. You're such a help you know. We're going to Hogsmeade together tomorrow." Remus turned back to his caldron.

Isobel stood in Care of Magical Creatures, next to Hagrid's hut looking at the unicorn. The Ravens hung at the back not paying attention to Professor Kettleburn "Well what did he write?" Undine asked slyly.
'Stop talking about it. Not everyone needs to know.' Isobel hissed over their connection.
Titania rolled her eyes. 'Well what happened? We know about the closet. So fess up!'
Isobel sighed. 'He asked me out Saturday.' The girls gave a little squeal.
'Well girlfriend we're going to have to get you all prettied up then.' Isobel rolled her eyes and focused back on the professor.

The Ravens headed back to the Ravenclaw common room before dinner to drop off their bags.
"What's the plan for tonight?" asked Ursula in a whisper to Titania.
"Well Adrian and I are having a picnic tonight under the stars so I'll see you guys tomorrow." With that Titania gave them one last smile and headed back out.
Isobel collapsed on one of the snow white sofas. She had no sooner laid down when one of the fourth year Ravens appeared hovering over her "What do you want, Rowena?" she asked looking up into the upside down image of the girl's angry face.
"I want you to do something about Professor Cadabra teaching Faeries as Dark Creatures!" she spat.
"Not this again!" cried out Medea.
Rowena turned to her "You've had other complaints?"
Ursula came over "Yeah, Lydia in Slytherin, The Hufflepuff Merchant Society and of course the wonderful Mr. LeFae."
Rowena looked pissed "Well are you going to do something?"
The girls shook their heads "No take it up with Titania, but Milady and Milord are on a date sooo, wait 'til tomorrow." With that the three girls trooped out of the Common room to dinner.
Down in the Great Hall all the Houses were in a dizzy. The Ravens had people from all the Houses common up to them to complain about Defense against the Dark Arts. Isobel looked up to the teachers' table where Dumbledore sat talking to Professor Cadabra. 'It'd probably be too much to hope that he's telling him off now isn't it.' She thought mirthlessly.
