Chapter 6
got up early the next morning, the grogginess from being out so late still fogging my eyes. I slipped quietly out of my bed, careful not to disturb my dorm mates. They were actually pretty nice, just too preppy and clone-ish for me. I slipped on my uniform, and grabbed the long robe hanging from one of the posts on my bed. Walking quickly down to the common room, I was greeted by some of the guys who were on the quidditch team. The were always nice to me. I knew why, but I normally just greeted them nicely and left. That's the only reason I didn't like the schools in Europe. In America, they had muggle sports within the school. My favorite having been Lacrosse. A smiled at the thought of the violent sport as walked out the portrait hole. The dim torch light was a drastic change from the bright sun light in my room. STanding a couple yards away, was Remus, giving me a nervous smile. I smiled back, flattered that he came by. "What are you doing here thid early inthe morning?" He gave me another nervous smile. "Oh, I jus wanted to walk you to your classes, which also happen to be my classes. So I just wanted to walk with you." I smiled at him. He was so adorable, and such a gentleman. "Of course you can walk with me. Normally I walk by myself, my only companion my Ipod."Well, this works good for me." He bent down and gave me a small kiss on the corner of my mouth, careful not to be too displaysive, yet it was still closer than a kiss on the cheek. He pulled me into a tight hug, his shirt had the scent of his cologne, and I could feel my knees grow week. He let me go, but held onto my hand as we headed to class.
A couple minutes later, we arrived at the Transfiguration room. He walked over to the corner of the room where he and his friends always sat, and he pulled out a chair for me. I sat, thanking him, and looked around, never having been in this part of the classroom. "Don't worry, Lily will be sitting with us, so you won't be the only girl." I could only smile. I had met Lily once, but that wasd a long time ago, and I had never actually talked to her before. She seemed like a nice enough person, but just a little too pompous for my taste. Me and Remus talked for a couple minutes, then came in his friends. First was James and Lily, walking a little closer then friends would, which was still what they claimed to be. Peter was following them like a little servant boy. I was about to ask where Sirius when the door burst open, and the handsome young man came running in. He stopped suddenly, run his fingers through his hair, and looked around the room, appearing as if he was trying really hard to choose where to sit. He strutted over to our table, making sure he gave a charming smile to all the pretty girls, who swooned in reply. He came and pulled out a chair in between Remus and James, turning it around so he could sit on it backwards. Everyone greeted each other, except me of course. I hid behind my hair and pondered the idea of being able to get away. "Hey, Moony, who's your friend?" I heard Sirius chirp from his seat. "Every one," Remus said politely, a smile on his face, "I want you to meet Adrianna Arianrhod. My new, ummm, girlfriend I guess you could say." I blushed a violent crimson at the thought of him considering me his girlfriend. Every one greeted me politely, and I responded politley. Lily, though, looked like she wanteds to shoot me, her smooth voice betraying her true emotions.
Class seemed to drag on forever. There was a thick wall of tension between me and Lily the entire time, and even though Lily had James, she seemed extremely upset that someone could have Remus. I quickly gathered my books as the bell rang, and tried to get out before I had to face Lily. "Adri, where are you going?" Remus had a baffled look on his face. "Well, I wanted to get something to eat, and I was going to go put my books away, and..." He cut her off mid sentance, "Well, I can come with you then." He ran after her, his papers sticking out of his bag. Walking briskly down the halway, she took a left where he would normally have gone right, and he followed her, trying to say something, but before he could get words out she spoke, "I don't think she likes me at all." Remus was confused, "Who?" "Lily." He sighed, he knew this was coming, "Yeah. She's very...complicated like that. She's been my friend since before we came to this school, in fact she's my neighbor. She used to like me a lot, but I would never go out with her because...I'm a werewolf...I'm different. Now she thinks she has to approve all of my girl-friends, and she thinks she gets to decide my fate. I'ts rather annoying actually. I git her to stop before I started dating Evelyn, but she still acts like a bitch towards them. Just try to ignore her. Anyway, I think she'll come to like you." I sighed...He was so adorable, so perfect. "That's good."
