A/N: Ok, taking a mental break from exams here and thought I would work on getting this chapter up. Chapter 7 is already written and Chapter 8 is already in the making. The muse has really struck me, and the creative juices just flow. I guess that's enough of my ramblings, on with the fic. Oh yeah, don't worry Guin Remus is the focus of this chap.
A tired shadow-eyed Lupin walked out of the infirmary, and started the long walk to the Gryffindor common room. All he wanted to do was go up to his dormitory and sleep. Last night had been a rough night. Remus walked for what seemed to him hours but in truth was only fifteen minutes. Just as he reached the stairs to the Common Room he was stopped.
"Remus," called James as he, Sirius, and Peter rounded the corner, "Where were you?"
"My Aunt died, I had to go to the funeral."
"Another?" asked Sirius.
"That's the second one this year!" piped in Peter.
"Geeze, Remus a lot's been happening with your family," commented James.
"I – I don't want to talk about it," stammered Remus trying to quickly get away from any inquiries, "I just want to go lay down."
"What about lunch?" asked Peter who was almost inseparable from food explaining his pudginess.
"I don't want to eat, I want to go to lay down. Now will you guys stop bugging me?" snapped Remus extremely tired and frustrated. All he wanted to do was sleep and everyone seemly had to bug him. Remus then headed up the stairs to his dormitory.
"Boy is he ever moody," remarked Peter.
After sleeping that Saturday afternoon away Remus felt better, he still had dark circles under his eyes though. The sun was going down now signifying that diner was ready in the Great Hall. Remus had an over powering hunger and headed down the stairs into the Common Room. There he saw James, Sirius and Peter sitting on the floor playing Exploding Snap.
"Hey, we thought you'd never wake up," called Sirius looking up from the game to see Remus.
"I was just tired," explained Remus walking over.
"You want to join in?" asked James after his play.
"Actually . . ." started Remus suddenly being interrupted by the explosion of the game.
"Well, we can forget about that game," stated Sirius, "How about some sup?"
"You read my mind," answered James.
"Great!" agreed Peter getting up, eyebrows severely singed.
"You coming Moody?" asked Sirius.
"Hey!" objected Remus.
"What? You are!"
"I know," consented Remus, "I kinda blew up earlier today."
"Think nothing of it, Sirius was just giving you a hard time," answered James as the four walked out of the Common Room and headed for the Great Hall.
A/N: I know this is an extremely short chapter sorry but don't worry chapter 7 is already written and 8 is well under way.
