Hannah rolled her eyes.
"What about Beauty and the Beast?" She asked
"He's still a Prince."
"Remus if you don't shut up, I'll wear leather to the Halloween ball!"
Remus looked at her and she gave him a warning look as if to tell him to shut up.
"Are you gonna help me with my essay or what?" She flashed him a dazzling smile, which he always gave in to.
Remus smiled back and rolled his eyes. Even though she already knew all of it, she still wanted him to help her with it, as it was "his area of expertise". They got halfway through when a kiss stopped them getting any further.
"What was that for?" Remus asked
"Do I need a reason for kissing you?"
He shrugged
"Maybe it was just to prove a point, to prove that I love you no matter what – Werewolf of not." Hannah said, "Or it might be for the simple fact I wanted to."
She could see something in his eyes; something that she only saw when that was mentioned and she kissed him again, but on the cheek.
"I love you." She whispered, running her fingers through his hair "Even if you do have random grey hair."
"Hey!"
"I'm joking." She giggled, leaning her head on his shoulder, "There's nowhere I'd rather be than in your arms and no-one else I'd rather be with. You may just be one person to the world, but you're everything to me."
Tiptoeing carefully into the Common Room, Sirius had hold of Lily's hand and lead her to the boy's dormitory, stopping slightly at the top of the stairs to kiss her, backing her against the wall, leant in and kissed her tenderly at first but slowly became more passionate, he lifted her up and carried her to the dormitory, closed the door behind them and tipped them onto his bed, kissing each other like they were out of control. It was everything Lily had ever wanted but for some reason she stopped Sirius from going any further.
"I can't." She whispered to him
"Sirius looked at her and understood
"I want to but I don't think I'm ready for it." She added quietly.
"No offence Lily, but you kinda tease Hannah about being a virgin, yet you're one." Sirius said.
"But they think I'm not." Lily explained, "I had this little whirlwind romance on holiday summer before last and when I got back they asked if anything happened and 'cause I didn't answer, they assumed I did lose it but I never corrected them even though I should have."
Sirius didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say. She was his girlfriend and it wasn't as if she'd lied to her friends about it – well not in so many words anyway. He loved her and he wasn't going to make her do anything that she wasn't ready for.
There was an owl knocking on the window and Carolyn went to open it and retrieved a note from its beak. She opened it and it said.
I wanted you to know how much I love you and how much you mean to me, although it doesn't seem like it sometimes I notice you more than anyone else. You're beautiful.
"What's it say?" Clare asked
Carolyn sighed for a minute, and read the note over and over, no name, no sign of who it was from, she couldn't help but wonder who it was who had sent it. Did they really think she was beautiful? Someone noticed her? She didn't know what to make of the note but it suggested a secret admirer.
"Well?" Clare Asked impatiently
Carolyn passed the note to Clare, who read and just shrugged her shoulders.
"So you've got a secret admirer. Big deal!"
"It is to me!"
"Whatever Caz!" Clare teased, "I'm going to bed anyway."
"Night."
But Carolyn did the same and flopped onto her bed and thoughts of who her admirer could be consumed her dreams.
She felt his arms tighten around her and he kissed the top of her hair. She fell into an uneasy sleep, leaving her essay unfinished, so Remus put a charm on her quill so it wrote whilst he dictated. He loved Hannah more than anything, but he was scared that he would lose her to some other guy. He saw a piece of parchment scrunched up in her hand; he slowly prised it from her hand and read it.
Every textbook I've read and every teacher I've asked have all said that werewolves in their human form are aggressive and short tempered; yet I know and love a werewolf and he is the kindest and most gentle person I've ever met. But there are times where I wish that he wasn't, because I've seen the pain it causes him, I can see the pain in his eyes when someone mentions the full moon or the fact that he's a werewolf. I don't understand what it's like, I can't even begin to imagine but I sometimes just wish that he wasn't one, just to see the pain disappear.
A single tear trickleddown the side of his face and he saw a little bit underneath
Not relevantHe looked at her and remembered when she asked him about the fact that he was a werewolf.

"Why didn't you tell me?" She asked, "I'm meant to be your best friend!"
"You don't think I wanted to?" He answered, small tears trickling down his face.
"But why didn't you?"
"I was afraid alright!" He retorted, "I was afraid you'd turn against me."
"Turn against you?" She asked, "I'm your best friend! If anyone understands you it's me!"
"It's okay for you – you've got loads of friends to turn to who understand you, I've only got you!"
"But you're the only family I got."

Remus remembered that she had lost countless number of boyfriends because of him, because she kept defending him. She'd said that he had been the only guy who had ever told her that she was beautiful and meant it, even when she had had to wear a plaster cast around her nose for a week and looked like a complete idiot, he had still told her that she was beautiful. He looked at her now whilst she was sleeping, and she reminded him of when she was a little girl – vulnerable and innocent. He let the soft sounds of her breathing slowly lull him to sleep and he had a small smile on his face.
I'M SO SORRY IT'S TAKEN SO LONG TO DO THIS, I'VE HAD A LOT TO DO – EXAMS AND I'VE HAD WRITERS BLOCK AS WELL SO AGAIN, I'M SORRY.
