A/N-Okay, so…here we go. WARNING; OotP spoilers. Review please!
ABOUT THE TITLE: I thought about naming this 'Remembrances' or 'Reflections'…but I thought that this title would explain everything better.
DISCLAIMER: I own nothing.
SUMMARY: Remus reflects upon the death and betrayal at least in Peter's case of his friends. Sad-ish mood.
I am the lone Marauder.
I remember back in our Hogwarts days, everything was so carefree, so innocent.
I remember our laughter, our jokes, our friendship.
I remember everything.
Why did you leave me? Why did you leave me to cope all the dangers in the world, alone, cold, and friendless?
Are you so heartless just to leave me here? Do you find enjoyment watching me cry alone at my windowsill at night from up above, wishing for everything to be just right again?
I remember you, Peter, you traitor. I remember how you betrayed our friendship to join Voldemort. I remember your sweating face, your beady eyes, your nervous disposition. I remember how, after the trust and faith we placed into you, you just blew it all away in our faces. I remember you, you rat.
And I remember you James, I remember how you were the kindest person on the side of this earth, despite your outer layer of arrogance. I remember how you thought of Sirius, Peter and I as your best friends. I remember your jokes, your deep laughter, your twinkling caramel eyes. I remember the day you died. How I was broken up inside, how I felt like my very existence was being torn away from me. I remember you, best friend and fellow Marauder.
I also remember you, Sirius. I remember your cheery attitude, your carefree disposition, how you thought us four were the greatest friends in the history of Hogwarts. I remember how you pulled the record for most detentions and for giving McGonagall an astounding number of grey hairs. I remember how you always stated that you would be with us, no matter what. I remember the moment you fell through the Veil, how torn up and grieved I was to lose you, friend. I remember how I never forgot your passing, to this day. I remember you, best friend.
I remember you all. I remember everything. Every day when I wake up, you three are the first things that come across my mind. My grievances have taken their toll on me. No longer am I joking or laughing. No longer am I happy. I have a black hole inside of me, for I am nothing without my best friends. I remember you all so clearly and vividly.
I remember you all, and I will never forget.
I am the lone Marauder.
