Disclaimer: I don't know if you haven't noticed this but....I'm not JK Rowling. Far from her, actually...so do you really think I'd claim her characters? No...I do own Roz.

AN- Correct me if you disagree with this story, I don't care. I like the idea, and I didn't know anything about his family...so I made it up. Including his mother and father's name...of course, if anyone DOES know their name, I'd appreciate you telling me! Thanks! And...does anyone know a good beta? Btw, Sorry I forgot to tell everyone...but at the begging of the first three chapters...there were flashbacks. So, to clear things up, I'll explain. Flashbacks are italicized...everything else is Christmas break...Roz is 15, in her fifth year..The marauders are 17 in their 7th. Also, I may change the rating...sorry, no this will not be NC-17. The R rating will just be decided on what's going to happen in london...wiggles eyebrows Oops, I said too much!

Chapter 5: Off To London We Go

'Each year at Christmas, Grandmama asks us to visit. I love my grandmother, don't think I'm a selfish brat who doesn't want to visit her relatives. It's just that over at Grandmama's I'm considered a better...child than Remus. This is probably due to his lycanthropy. I know what you're thinking. I should love going over there because I'm not thought of a lesser child to my brother. But, you wouldn't love it if you had to come home hearing all kinds of insane theories about your favorite relative.

And by insane theories, I mean the things Remus says. Just becuase I'm held on a higher pedastal than he is over there. Oh, and Grandmama doesn't approve of Remus hanging around anyone out of the Black family. She thinks they're bad news.

I don't really know what to think of his friends. They certainly have the ability to hold their own opinion about me, instead of believing everything Remus tells them. If anything, I really like his friends. James is sweet, and always treated me equally. Hell, he's saved me from Remus quite a few times.

Sirius, on the other hand, is a bit more difficult to get around. He can be so sincere and the sweetest human being ever to live, and then he could pull a 180 and yell and curse your guts out. He's never done this to me, but I've seen it happen..

Oh, and Peter is nice. A bit shy, but I've nothing against the guy. He's just trying to be somebody, and if he thinks he can accomplish that by sticking around James, then so be it.

So, now I've admited that I don't mind Remus' friends...Ugh!'

Rosalyn slammed her diary shut and threw it against the wall. It fell to the floor behind her vanity, where it usually always stayed. She didn't even know why she started writing in it.

Journals were for...girls with boy, makeup, or parent problems. Since she wore no makeup, hardly, or paid much attention to boys, she felt no need to keep one. 'So why did I write in it?' She tapped her chin and rolled over on her back.

Staring up at the entricate carvings on her ceiling, Rosalyn gave a loud sigh. She did miss Grandmama. And torturing Remus would be sort of fun. In fact, it would be the highlight of her Christmas break.

Roz swung her legs over to the floor and reached over to her nightstand to grab a ponytail. She pulled her brown hair up and placed her feet in her shoes. Just as she glanced to the mirror for a quick look-over, someone pounded on her door. "Come on if you want to go." Remus barked, making his sister roll her eyes.

She jerked the door open, shoved him away from her, and started down the hallway. "Oh no. I hope you realize your mistake."

Roz turned to stare over her shoulder, her green eyes narrowed into slits. "I realize the mistake in having you as my brother, if that's what you mean." Her voice was low. From over Remus' shoulder, she spotted his friends coming out of their guest room.

In three quick strides, Remus had crossed over to his sister and shoved his hands against her shoulders. She stumbled back and hit the hallway wall with her back. Wincing in pain, Roz stared up at her brother as he pushed his finger in hre face. "When we get there, you don't even think about following us. We're leaving at 6:30 and if you're not with us, you're walking home...alone."

"Fuck you." She growled, pulling her hands up to defend herself. She only managed to slap his hand away.

"What?" He asked, his eyes widening slightly.

"You heard me, mutt. Get out of my face before I scream bloody murder."

"Go ahead and try." With a quirk of her eyebrows, Roz opened her mouth and let out a piercing scream. Sirius, James, and Peter slapped their hands over their ears before Remus had a chance to shut the girl up. Roz grinned into her brother's hand as he quieted her. "I-mome-noo." (which turns out to be 'I told you') She said cynically, sliding her tongue across his palm. He instantly jerked his hand away.

"Ugh, you're sick." Remus looked over his shoulder and waited for his friends to catch up. As soon as they met up with him, Roz fell in behind. She was beside Sirius and behind her brother. She had the small urge to step on his heel, trip him, or shove him down the stairs, but she quickly thought against it.

It would be hard to explain his murder to her parents. As the stairs curved, Sirius jerked Roz's hand, keeping her back with him. "Why are you being like this?"

"Being like what? He's the one that threatened to leave me on the streets of London alone by my lonesome."

"I mean, why are you blackmailing us? We both know that you wouldn't do anything like that." Roz narrowed her eyes on the boy. It was true, she did know she wouldn't ever turn them in. But, why was Sirius so sure of it?

Dropping her eyes to the stairs, Roz shrugged. "Remus doesn't know that."

"Remus...he does have a lot to deal with you know?" Sirius sighed and ran his tongue over his bottom lip. He gave a quick glance around the bend of the stairwell to make sure Remus wasn't listening. "He thinks you hate him."

"HAH! That's where you're wrong. I don't hate him...HE hates ME. From the day I was born, he was an asshole to me. Ok, so maybe that's over-exagerating a bit--"

"Sirius?" Remus called up the stairs, making the pair jump in surprise. Sirius gave Roz one last glance before smiling and bounding down the stairs. Roz stared after him with a slight smirk before she too descended down to the first level. Despite the fact that Remus was being an especially nasty today, she could already tell that this trip to London was going to be one to remember.

AN- Please review! This story will be sort of long...and it's just all about Roz and how hard it is to be Remus' sister. Also, there's a bit of romance involved...but I'm not revealing anything. Thanks to my reviewers: WickedFaith, Trinity Cloud, hunni07, FemmeLoki, chitana, Katriana souless, and kiwi 36!! this one's for you!
