CHAPTER TWO
"Lily-"
"No."
"But-"
"No Potter."
"Lily-"
"NO!"
"Why n-"
"Because."
"I-"
"Save it."
"Love-"
"ER! POTTER!"
You."
"STOP IT!"
"Why-?
Yes, the all too familiar fight between James Potter and Lily Evans.
And this was only breakfast.
"But-"
"I'm serious, STOP!"
"If you-"
"Really, shit up!"
"WOULD YOU JUST LISTEN TO THE MAN?" Sirius yelled over the two.
"Geeze Pad, what's got your knickers in a twist?" James asked.
Sirius slammed his head on the table, making the goblets shake.
"Lily, can you at least let him finish his sentences?" Candice begged rubbing her temples.
"Better yet," Emily smiled, "you could TRY to get along!" She finished.
Lily laughed evilly, "Me and Potter? When hell freezes over Em."
Sirius faked a whimper. "Aww, Sirius are you okay?" Candice asked sincerely rubbing his back, playing along with his act.
Sirius lifted his head, "No. My head hurts." and laid his head back on the table.
"Do you want me to kiss it and make you feel better?" Candice asked and then laughed when his head shot up.
"I'm waiting." He said. She laughed and kissed his temple. He smiled, "I've had a sudden recovery."
"Come on love birds, let's get to class." James said standing up, backpack in hand walking out of the Great Hall.
"Love birds?" Candice questioned. "Just look at Remus and Em." she laughed.
"Hey!" Emily said offended. "Just because I have a boy-"
"I don't want a boyfriend for the millionth time!" Candice said.
Remus seemed amused by all but the conversation short by saying, "Whatever, Let's get going."
"WELCOME! To Defense Against the Dark Arts. I will be your teacher and you will address me as-"
"Mr. Conceded?" Sirius said aloud seeing all the pictures of him along his desk.
Candice snickered next to him. "Like you're the one to talk." she said. Everyone laughed.
"You know you love me babe." He said putting his arm around her.
She rolled her eyes. "Oh yes Sirius. I am madly in love with you." She said sarcastically.
"Really?" He asked.
She looked at him like he was crazy. "No." Everyone laughed. Classes with Sirius and Candice were so much fun.
"Okay everyone, let's settle down." the professor said. "Like I was saying my name is Professor Lockhart. Now, please pay attention to the slide show for our first lesson." As if on cue the projector came on. "Now, Werewolves-"
Remus looked back at his friends sitting in the row behind him then back to the screen. "Can anyone tell me some features about it?"
At the same time, Remus, Emily, Sirius, James, Lily and Candice all raised their hands.
"Yes, Mr. Lupin?" He asked.
"The werewolf has extraordinary hearing." He said confidently.
"Good for eavesdropping." Sirius whispered.
"Yes, Ms. Evans?"
"They don't have a choice to turn into one or not."
"What else? Mr. Potter."
"The werewolf also has very good hearing."
"And Mr. Black?"
"Before the full moon, the person will feel pained and tired and snappy." Sirius said recalling all the times Remus had snapped at him.
"Ms. Brown, what have you to say?"
"The werewolf turns back into human form when the sun rises."
"Yes and last but not least Ms. Jameson?"
Remus looked at his long term girlfriend. She had not been bothered by the fact that he was a werewolf. "People often mistake the werewolf to be a dangerous creature."
"On the contrary Ms. Jameson." The professor responded. "The werewolf is incredibly dangerous."
Everyone could see the anger in Remus rise. "How?" he asked.
"Well, they will bite you any chance they get and then you'll be a werewolf. We wouldn't want that would we?" He turned to the screen. "Now, let's focus on the Werewolf Rebellion."
Remus couldn't hold it in. "It's not their fault! They've been bitten by one, and as a matter of fact they have no choice, you know that!"
The professor sighed. "Well Mr. Lupin, they have no self control therefore they are dangerous creatures and should be treated as such."
All 6 friends were astonished. How could he discriminate against Remus? He must have known he was one. Remus' breath became faster. "How would you like it if you had to go through what a werewolf does?"
"Well Mr. Lupin everyone has views on this subject, let's please watch the slide show." He said carelessly. Remus sat down as Emily tried to calm him.
"There werewolf transforms as the full moon is set. Most go out into woods or something. If a person is bitten by a werewolf-" Remus turned his arm over and looked at the scar. "they have no choice but to accept it. In the earlier years, people led a rebellion against them. Ah look! There's me!" He said happily.
Everyone took a moment to look at the picture. There were people, hundreds of them it holding signs. To Remus it felt as if every Witch and Wizard was against him. He looked closer and found the signs said, 'KILL WEREWOLFS' and 'LOCK THEM UP' and in the professors hand, which was his favorite by far (eye roll) was one that said 'DANGEROUS ANIMALS WHO SHOULD BE SLAUGHTERD'.
Remus had enough, picking up his things he left in a huff. Emily took a deep breath and left as well. James looked at the next slide which showed men in cages, who he assumed were Werewolves. He and Lily got up and left in disgust.
Sirius on the other hand had another plan. Candice was ready to leave until he put up his hand. "Excuse me Professor?" He said.
"Yes, Mr. Black."
"Those people in the cages, can you tell me something about them?" He asked. Candice smiled. Sirius always was the one to debate.
"They are all Werewolves Mr. Black."
Sirius sighed, "I see people." he was surprised by the voice next to him. Candice had finally spoken up.
The professor smiled, "Well Ms. Brown it isn't a full moon."
"I know." She said.
Sirius on the other hand had another plan. Candice was ready to leave until he put up his hand. "Excuse me Professor?" He said.
"Yes, Mr. Black."
"Those people in the cages, can you tell me something about them?" He asked. Candice smiled. Sirius always was the one to debate.
"They are all Werewolves Mr. Black."
Sirius sighed, "I see people." he was surprised by the voice next to him. Candice had finally spoken up.
The professor smiled, "Well Ms. Brown it isn't a full moon."
"I know." She said.
"Are you trying to start a debate with me?" The professor asked.
"Well that depends." She got up and walked up to him. She said, "Will you offend another student?"
"In a debate everyone gets offended."
She said only for him to hear, "Will you offend a student, who's a werewolf?" His face went blank.
Candice walked back to her seat and grabbed her things walking out the door, Sirius close behind.
"HOW COULD HE DO THAT?" Candice winced at the loudness.
"Not good." She said. Sirius tried to run ahead to catch up with Remus who they could vaguely see at the end of the hall.
"No." Candice said holding him back. "Let's let him be." she said.
Sirius sighed. "You're right."
"Want to take a walk?" Sirius asked seeing a doorway.
She laughed, "Why not? I have nothing else better to do."
Sirius led her to the lake and sat down. "So, what do you want to talk about?" He asked.
She took her shoes and socks off letting her feet dangle in the water. "What do you want to talk about?"
Sirius lay back placing his hands behind his head. "Family."
She laughed, "Sirius, you know about my family."
"Not really. I only know the surface. I want to know anything and everything. I want to know everything about you." He said.
"Everything?" She asked. "That might take a while."
Sirius smiled, "We've got time."
She laughed, "Okay then. Well, you know about my family. pure blood maniacs. Um…I have a sister, Eve."
"You have a sister?" Lily said coming up behind them, with James.
Candice laughed. "Would you two like to join us? I'm ready to tell Sirius my life story."
Lily smiled and sat down next to her. "Sure." James sat down with his back to a tree.
Candice continued, "As I said, I have a sister who goes to Drumstrang."
"Why don't you go there?" Lily asked.
"Wasn't invited. They said that I wasn't worth it."
"Arn't you a pureblood?" Lily asked.
"Yes but even purebloods have their predjdice." She sighed. "Anyways, when I was seven, my mom left." Candice continued.
Sirius smiled, "I loved her. She was the nicest woman on earth."
Candice smiled, "She was. She wasn't into the Dark Arts or anything, she spoiled me rotten."
"Remember when we went to Zonko's? She practicly bought out the whole store." Sirius asked laughing.
"Yeah and then we pranked Muggles!" She laughed.
"It was great! She was laughing the whole time." Sirius said laughing with his eyes.
Candice thought more about her mother and soon her smiled faded and her mood became dark. She immideatly perked up and said,"Anyways, my sister is a total bitch. But I love my brother." She stressed. "He was the best!" she laughed. "He used to take care of me so much"
"Used to?"Lily asked.
"Well, he died." She said shortly.
"Mind if I ask how?" Lily said.
"He was playing Quittadge and got hit in the head with a bludgers. Lost his memory and never seen him since." She said.
"Well then, why is he dead?" James asked.
"He's dead to the family." She said.
"Oh." Lily said shortly.
"That's how I learned to play you know. From Sean." Sirius said. "He bought me my first broom."
Candice laughed, "He even shrunk down the equipment so he could play."
"I tried to tell him I didn't need him too, but he wouldn't listen." Sirius sighed while the rest of them laughed.
"And thenmy dadmarried." Candice sighed and laid down.
"And?" asked Lily.s
"And the rest is history." Candice said with tears in her eyes. Everyone fell quiet and she smiled. "Sorry, but I just don't like to talk about it."
Sirius sighed; he never should have brought it up. "Well, let's go inside. Classes should be over by now."
Candice smiled, "So?" she asked. "You are a Marauder. Isn't skipping classes one of your specialties?" she asked.
"We can't! I'll loose my badge!" Lily complained.
"Yes, that is true." James said with a michevious glint in his eyes ignoring what Lily said.
"We'll get in soooo much trouble!" Lily complained.
"Should we tell them?" Sirius asked James ignoring Lily as well. James smiled and stood up.
"Let's go." He said.
"Wait! We're going to get caught." Lily said.
Finally Candice listened to her, "Lily, it's James and Sirius. How much trouble can we get into?" she asked like it was nothing.
Lily looked at her blankly, "Did you just say what I think you just said?"
Candice laughed and grabbed her arm dragging her along behind the boys. "Just let go for once!"
"Mr. Lupin" Said Dumbledore as Remus and Emily walked in. "And Miss Jameson nice to see you."
"Nice to see you too Sir." Emily said.
"Sir, today in-" Remus started.
Dumbledore raised his hands, "I'm already aware of that Mr. Lupin." he took a sip of his tea. "Professor Lockheart didn't know about your condition. It was all taken care of."
"So that's it?" Remus asked.
"Yes Mr. Lupin. You cannot punish someone who did not know. Now that will be all. You have classes to get back to."
Remus and Emily smiled thanking him and walked out.
"Having fun yet Lils?" James asked throwing his arm around Lily.
Lily looked at him is disgust. "No. Get your arm off me and don't call me Lils!" she demanded.
James saw the look in her eye and immeadly took his arm away. "Hey, it's getting cold. You guys want to get a Butterbeer?" he asked. Lily nooded in response.
"Candice and I can stick it out here for a while longer." Sirius said pulling her close as if she was his. Candice laughed and siled.
"Okay then." James said walking away with Lily.
"So, what do you want to do?" Sirius asked smiling at her.
Candice laughed, "Cause trouble of corse!" she said.
Sirius smiled wider and pulled her closer, "I knew you were good for something!" he exclaimed walking down the streets of Hogsmead.
