Selena walked along the empty corridor talking in the night air. It was almost eleven o'clock but she didn't care. She was thinking, again, about the extraordinary marauders. They had, yet again, gotten into mischief today, except for Remus, and were doing detention with McGonagall this very minute. She turned a corner and decided that she would take a quite walk around the lake before she went back to the Gryffindor tower. As she walked she looked at the moon. Almost full. She would leave tomorrow to go home only to be locked in the back yard shed for her transformation. She only wished there were someone that understood her.Selena climbed through the portrait hole after mumbling the password. She decided to stay in the common room for a while before going to bed. She stared into the fire watching the flames flicker. Life for her wasn't good at all. But luckily most of her time was spent at hogwarts where there wasn't much time for friends, not that she had any. It was better than it would have been at home though. She was now in her six year and she was reflecting on if her life would be any less depressing if she didn't have muggles for parents. Just then the marauders, apparently just through with detention, walked through the portrait hole talking quietly to each other, but when they noticed her they went silent. They stole quick glances at her, but didn't say anything until they were out of earshot. Selena knew people talked about her, but she didn't care. It would give them something to do.
Looking out his window from the tower Remus saw Selena doing her rounds like every other night. Remus knew she was a werewolf. He had figured it out and then Dumbledore had confirmed it. He didn't think she knew about him, but he could only guess. He continued to watch her walk as she headed back toward the castle. Then his thoughts drifted to tomorrows full moon as he waited for the others to return from detention.When James, Sirius, and Peter closed the door to the dorm they all started talking at once. Remus gave them a curious glance James mumbled that Selena was in the Common Room as though that explained it all. It was then Remus decided he would talk to her sometime. She didn't have any friends and he felt bad for her. After the transformation and they both felt better he promised himself he would talk to her.
