James stared at his Professor. He didn't even realize Dumbledore had
talked until Harry started waving his hand in front of James face.
"Profess-Albus just said that maybe you should get back to class." Harry stated. James stared at his face, close up. He had one bright emerald green eye, a most peculiar shaped scar on his forehead. they were the two most obvious things. The scar before had looked fairly normal, but there seemed to be some sort of warning emotion springing from it. And his eye. it had a patch.
The werewolf!?
No, Remus would have told them, wouldn't he? Yes, Remus WOULD have told them. James hoped.
James backed out of the study, for some reason, unknown to himself, he walked all the way to the Common Room backwards, before he finally realized why he had been on his way to the Headmaster's office anyway.
He left, this time walking the right way round, and went to the Headmasters study. Half way there he came across Harry who was muttering to himself about Death Eaters and Drongo's.
"Oh Hello James." He said when he saw James. "What seems to be the problem?" He asked in a very un-sixteen year oldish voice.
"Oh, I had to see Dumbledore, that's why I wasn't in class." James answered hesitantly. "I uh, I was just going to deliver him a message that's been bothering me." He continued, not quite sure of what Harry's reaction would be. He did tense a little.
"Oh? What's the message, if you don't mind my asking?" Harry asked.
"Oh" James recited what he could remember of Trelawney's acting up.
Harry's reaction was rather alarming. He tensed up and clenched his fist. A wind seemed to come from in his robes somewhere (No it isn't a fart) and made his robes swirl around him, a tightly leashed power seemed to be bound through him.
"Sir, are you OK? Do you know what she was talking about, I mean about the Defense teachers that is?"
"Fine." Harry answered, his voice low and dangerous. "Keep out of harms way, James. We can't have anyone getting hurt here."
"Why me?" James asked, Harry sounded extremely sincere and seemed worried that he himself would be in trouble.
"Because, I just want you to keep out of harms way. I'll know if you try and sneak out, so don't try it." Harry said.
James blew up (Not literally.). "WHY?! You're sixteen, surely you know what it's like being my age!" He raged.
"I am your age, yes, but I only ever snuck out of school." Harry trailed off seemingly abashed. "Anyway, I was never in any danger, Voldemort wasn't a threat where I lived."
He was lying. James knew it. There was no way he was telling the truth! "You're a hopeless liar." James said dryly.
"Mr. Potter, I am going to be forced to give you a detention." Harry said. Remus came skidding around the corner. "James! Guess what?! The joke worked, Snape just went storming out of DADA because his hair is clean, and pink, but that's not .. the. point." Remus trailed off as he noticed Harry who was chuckling a little. "You too Mr. Lupin. I'm sorry."
Harry walked off.
"Me too what?" Remus asked, clearly bewildered.
"You just got a detention, I think I just riled him up a little bit more than his liking." Harry poked his head around the corner he'd just turned. "Tonight the DADA room. 8:00, after you've finished tea." He left again.
"Damn." Remus said, cursing his bad luck. "Why was he laughing then?"
"I don't know, but it is a teacher's duty." James said. He, however, was becoming rather suspicious of Harry.
So that night, after tea, James and Remus walked towards the DADA room. As they neared, loud angry voices could be heard.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry was stunned. A member of the Order of The Phoenix from the future had turned up at the castle, that was two in the last week! Dumbledore must have remembered her.
Sirius and Harry were now in a loud fight because of it.
"Holy BaJebus Sirius! She's only fifteen! What if she gets hurt?! Huh, Tell me that!" Harry demanded of his godfather.
"She's quite capable of looking after herself, and all those around you are safe, you make them safe. She wouldn't be too happy if she found out that you were trying to get me to get Dumbledore to send her back." Sirius explained calmly. He was quite used to Harry having a bad temper when it came to putting his friends, however close, in danger.
"But she's Ginny! What will her family think?!"
"Bill, Charlie, Molly and Arthur already know, in case you haven't figured that out yet."
"What about Ron?! Huh? He's my best friend!"
A tentive knock from the door bought them out of their rage and Harry paled. It was time for that detention and he wasn't wearing anything to conceal himself. Then again, both James and Remus knew a little of what he looked like.
The door opened slowly.
~*~*~*~*~*~
As soon as the duo had knocked, silence reigned. The two arguers, who James and Remus had realized was Harry and Professor Reid, shut up.
Remus opened the door.
Professor Reid stood on one side of the classroom, a look of relief on his face, he was by himself though. Harry wasn't anywhere to be seen.
"Oh, sorry, Professor. Harry gave Remus and I a detention." James said. " So, here we are."
A moment later another door opened and in walked a young girl, obviously younger than Remus and James, with fiery red hair and chocolate/honey eyes.
"Siri-" She stopped and looked at the two Marauders. Her eyes seemed to bulge for a second before she composed herself. "Mr. Reid," she continued, "where did that boyf-I mean Harry go?" She asked.
Was she about to say boyfriend.
"Don't ask me where the dratted Auror is. James, Sirius, this is Professor Ginny, Harry's fiancé." He said.
"Don't they have last names? Either of them?" James blurted. He couldn't help it. Surely Harry would have taken Professor Ginny's name. "OH! Her last name IS Professor Ginny?" He mentally smacked himself. How doughy could you get?
"Aren't you and Harry a little young to marry?" Remus asked, seemingly over the initial shock.
"That's why we're engaged." Professor Ginny said, looking at her feet.
Harry materialized before the four of them, breaking all line of questioning.
~*~*~*~*
Harry had decided that he shouldn't risk it, so he'd turned himself invisible. Phew, it was only James and Remus.
Harry blushed as the three, now four, of the people in the room talked. What right did Sirius have telling them he was engaged? Huh? Tell him that!
Actually, he had a lot of reasons.
He materialized himself in front of them again.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Remus jumped!
Harry was wearing no hood at all. How very odd. He had scars all over him, of course, he'd seen them before, some whilst in his werewolf form, others whilst in DADA, but now, up close, it was surreal.
"Huh?" He asked stupidly as Harry questioned something of him.
"I asked if you were ready for your detention." Harry repeated, smiling slightly. James was nodding, albeit hesitantly. Harry's gnarled face had a look that Remus did not like.
So did Professor Reid, actually. Ginny was looking confused.
"Huh?" She asked, repeating Remus earlier bout of stupidity.
"Don't worry missy." Harry said, he ran a finger down her nose, then kissed it lightly.
Remus raised his eyebrows and turned. James stared.
"Problem?" Harry smirked. James shook his head and Remus turned around, grinning at his friends antics.
Ginny shook her head at the lot of them, waved goodbye, and she and Professor Reid left.
"Alright, I realized a while ago that it was probably unfair of me to give you a detention, so I'll just say sorry, and you can be off."
"But I thought you sai-" James was cut off.
"Don't worry about it."
"Well, I'm sorry for getting you angry. Did you tell Professor Dumbledore?"
"Oh, yes, I did." Harry's eyes had a faraway look and Remus knew, whatever it was, Harry hadn't told Dumbledore. "You may go, oh, and Remus! Could I have a word?"
Remus nodded as James left muttering "I'll wait for you."
"What is it Professor?" He asked.
"I'm not a Professor." Harry grinned. "I just wanted to see how you went after that little hiccup the last three nights."
Remus grinned as well. "Why didn't you tell me the side affects of the Potion?"
"I've been using it since I got my bite about a year ago and am used to the potion, so I forgot to tell you about it." Harry said sheepishly. "You didn't embarrass yourself too much did you?"
"No, not to worry sir."
"That's good. You may go."
"Just a minute, I couldn't help hearing you and Professor Reid talking. Why did you call him Sirius?"
"That's his name." Harry said. "Sirius Reid, he's just never serious so we usually call him something else."
"And, why didn't you want Professor Ginny to come here, to Hogwarts? It's the safest place, right?"
"Well." Harry looked considerably uncomfortable. "I guess you could say that. But well, some Death Eaters are after Sirius, Ginny and I, so I wanted her to stay somewhere no one would think to look."
He was lying.
Remus left.
