Selena let out a tiny yelp as she turned back towards the fire. She glanced nervously around the room trying to think of what to do and fast. She couldn't tell him what really happened. Not about Lucius! She covered every inch of herself that she could with her robe and prepared for the worst. Not even Lily could come up with a convincing story in this situation.
" Selena?"
He was closer… She could tell by his voice.
" Selena, what happened?" he said glancing at her pile of bloody clothes beside the couch.
She was trying to ignore him for as long as possible maybe if she ignored him he would go away. Maybe it would all go away. Maybe it would never have happened. She closed her eyes tight finally realizing he wasn't going to give up. When she open them she couldn't breathe. He was on his knees in front of her, his head slightly tilted and his eyes full of concern. It was the first time she realized she actually had people that cared about her. Her eyes filled with tears. Remus, noticing the tears, climbed up from the floor and sat on the couch beside her. He slowly wrapped his arms around her and just held her, but then after a while he began tracing circles on her back to comfort her. At first contact Selena shuddered, but then after a few moments she relaxed and began to enjoy the comfort. When the tears finally ceased she gathered all her courage and raised her head to look at him. Their eyes locked and she noticed his breath hitch. She looked away. He probably thought of her differently now. She was always being abused and now she had been raped. What would people think of her now? Nothing probably or at least that's what she thought.
"It was Lucius," she whispered.
His honey colored eyes reflected a look of hatred.
"You mean he…"
"Yes," she said cutting him off. She couldn't stand to hear it.
He jumped off the couch and stalked across the Gryffindor common room and up the stairs.
"PRONGS!…PADFOOT!…GET OUT HERE NOW," he yelled pounding on the door.
"Remus what are you doing!" she asked petrified. It was bad enough for him to know. And now he was going to tell James and Sirius!
He walked over to the very edge of the girl's stairs and yelled.
"LILY!… YOU TO."
"REMUS!" great now Lily too. Lily quickly emerged from the dorm. Apparently it wasn't every day Remus was screaming up the stairs at four in the morning. She took one look at Selena and went pale. Lily quickly rushed to her and looked her over.
"What happened,"
"Lucius raped her," Remus answered for her.
Selena flinched at the words. Lily, if it was possible, went even whiter. At this point James and Sirius appeared at the top of the stairs looking very annoyed. There hair was even more messy than usual and they looked tired. They hadn't been sleeping much. Most of the time they had been planning pranks or down at the kitchens. When they noticed Lily, as pale as she was, and Selena, bruised and bloody, they rushed down the stairs.
"What the bloody hell happened?" Sirius asked
Lily was to shocked to even glare at him for cursing.
"Lucius, he rap…" Lily couldn't finish. She burst into tears, but Sirius and James got the Idea.
"Remus, you and Lily get her to the Hospital wing, Sirius fetch my map."
Remus nodded and Lily just continued to cry. Selena knew what they were doing. They were going to track him down and then, well who knows what. She couldn't let them do that cause if they did who knows what kind of trouble they would get into.
"No, Sirius wait!" she yelled.
"We're going to track that bastard down." James said angrily.
"You'll get expelled!" Selena protested.
"It's damn worth it," said Sirius.
"Lets wait until I'm out of the hospital wing, lets plan something big, something he can't blame us for."
"Selena don't," Lily pleaded.
"Lily don't you do this, don't tell me I can't have revenge on someone that did this to me." Selena demanded.
"Ok," Lily sighed.
"In that case we can all escort her." Said Sirius.
They all headed out the Gryffindor common room. It seemed to take forever to reach the Hospital wing, but when they did James began to hammer on the door. After a minute Madam Pomfry opened the doors and on seeing Selena motioned for them to come in.
"Who was it," she asked after rummaging through the cabinet and returning with a tiny bottle.
"Lucius," Selena answered.
Madame Pomfry only nodded and told her to drink from the vial. Then Madam Pomfry went into another room and returned with a little basket of bottles.
Madam Pomfry must have noticed the expression on Selena's face because she some what smiled.
"The first was a pain potion."
"These are for other things,"
Selena knew she meant for not getting pregnant. Selena's eyes watered with tears and then someone squeezed her hand. She looked over expecting to see that it was Lily but it wasn't. It was Remus. Selena smiled at him and he returned it.
"Ok drink these three," Madam Pomfry said handing her more vials.
One, Selena, expected was for pregnancy and another was for sleep, Madam Pomfry had told her that, but what was the other one for.
"Ok, you four need to leave and let Ms. Alexander sleep. You can come visit in the morning."
Remus squeezed her hand again before letting go and the four of them turned to leave. After they left Selena soon drifted off to sleep.
DreamShe was in her room again back when she was eight or so. She was lying on her bed reading a book she had checked out from the library about werewolves.
"Selena!"
It was her dad. She tried to hide the book but only dropped it. It hit the floor with a thud. Her dad stood in the doorway.
"What's this?"
He walked over to where the book lay and picked it up. He threw it on her bed. He dad came towards her. She looked around the room and her eyes rested on the book. She remembered reading that chapter. She also remembered it filled her with fear.
End DreamSelena bolted up in her bed. Oh my god! Werewolves mate for life!
