Chapter twelve: Secrets Are Easily Found Out

Remus strolled into the library, it was so peaceful and relaxing compared to the madness in his dorm. He collapsed into a chair and began reading once more, until another book banged down on the table in front of him, "Werewolves: Vicious Beasts or Merely Misunderstood?". He looked up and smiled,

"Thanks Lily, I didn't-"

"Remus Lupin. You're quite the mystery man! The quiet isolated type. You have many friends whom you spend some of your time with, but prefer to go to the library. It's your haven. Your light in the dark hole they call school. A place to go to relax. Very intelligent too...Scarily intelligent, but unlike a number of smart people I know, you don't like to gloat. Very modest. Wouldn't dare treat anyone wrong either. Can't imagine the thought crossed your mind..."

Remus looked at Lily in alarm,

"I'm sorry? Lily, what are you getting at?"

"Let me finish!" Lily snapped. She took a deep breath, "Sorry Remus, I didn't mean to snap at you."

Remus nodded understandingly,

"That's quite alright Lily, continue."

Lily smiled,

"Always forgiving. But there's something Remus Lupin keeps locked away from the world. Something that causes him to disappear every month. Infact, the disappearances have interested me for quite some time. It couldn't be your grandmother like you claim every time. No, I think. No I think I know that the reason for you disappearing has something to do with this book..."

Remus paled,

"What?"

"Remus, you've always had a weird fascination for werewolves. In the beginning I thought it was just an interest, maybe you wanted to help those infected? Because that's the kind of guy you are, always helping. But somehow everything else seems to fit! Remus Lupin, you're a werewolf aren't you?"

"I-I don't know what y-your- I got to go!" Remus grabbed all his books and ran from the library, for the second time that day.

"Okay Sirius...What did I say to you before we left the Dorm?" James said slowly and carefully as Sirius, Harry and he walked down to dinner that evening.

"Prongs, don't stress! I know, don't tell anyone. No one. At all."

"No one."

Sirius waved his hand dismissively,

"Yea got it!"

Peter walked past,

"Guys! I was looking-" He stopped mid sentence and looked warily at Harry, "What's he doing here?"

Sirius looked thoughtful,

"In this time or-"

James kicked him and gave him a stern look,

"Well Wormtail, we've decided to get over our differences and be friends."

Peter looked confused, (Well more so than usual),

"But that's the mature thing to do..."

James nodded,

"Yes, and we're very mature people."

Peter stared at him,

"No your not!"

"Yes we are!"

"No, your not!"

"We are!"

"No..."

"Yes!"

"Nuh-uh, you guys are definitely not mature, I know first years that are-"

"We are dammit!"

"But-"

"Shut up Peter," Sirius said interrupting the argument, James went to open his mouth, "You too James. Lets go get some food before all the good stuffs gone..."

They began walking once more, with Peter struggling to keep up with the other boys wide strides,

"So what did you guys get up to?" Peter asked.

Sirius grinned,

"I found out I'm a godfather!"

"Sirius!"

"-To a...Hamster..."

James kicked Sirius and hissed,

"How many times did I tell-?"

"So...Your nice to him now?" A cold voice interrupted. All of them spun around and came face to face with Lily, who had her arms folded and looking mad. Peter cowered, he was afraid of Lily and for good reason...

"What business is that of yours Evans?" Sirius said equally cold.

"Don't rude to my future Mrs.!" James whispered.

"Would you like to share that with the rest of us Potter?"

"Uhh...No..."

"I didn't think so. Smith!"

Harry stood up straight,

"Yes ma'am!"

Lily's face softened,

"You've been avoiding me too long Harry! I insist you come with me to Hogsmeade!"

"What?"

"C'mon, I swear I don't bite..."

James and Sirius exchanged panicked glances,

"Uh...Uh..." For once Sirius Black was speechless.

"He can't!"

Lily glared at James,

"And why's that?"

"Because!"

"Because why?"

"He's...Uh...Coming with us!"

"So?"

"He just can't!"

"Potter, for god sake get over your little school boy crush on me! We all know you like me because I'm the only girl not falling at your feet. Well get over it! Smith's coming with me to Hogmeade and we'll kiss like hell just to piss you off!"

Harry looked as though he was going to pass out.

Lily walked up to Harry and kissed him on the cheek and whispered in his ear,

"I'll see you at Hogsmeade..."

Harry's eyes grew round as Lily walked off to dinner,

"Oh and tell Remus I need to talk to him..."

As soon as Lily was out of earshot Sirius cursed. Peter looked at James worriedly,

"Your going to hate him again aren't you?"

"Nah, Harry's his son, why should he hate him? He can't-"

Peter gasped.

"Sirius!" James moaned.

"What?"

"Keep your bloody trap shut!"
