Dinner was nice in Remus's eyes, but he was still worried about telling James about what he was. Sirius saw this on his face, but he did not say anything to his brother as he took a sip from his Butterbeer. Remus looked at his new family and sighed. Then he nodded to Mr. Potter who nodded back as if he knew what the young werewolf was talking about. "You can do it, Remus," Remus sighed knowing he was right. Then he looked to James who did not seem to notice what was going on but when he felt Remus's amber eyes on him, he looked up to see the fear in Remus's eyes.
"Um, James there is something that I need to tell you," Remus said slowly as he looked at Sirius who nodded and sighed knowing what Remus was going to say. "Now you might hate me but that's okay, everyone hates me on what I am," James raised an eyebrow but allowed Remus to speak. Remus sighed and continued "Now, I'm a…. a monster, a werewolf. I said that you can hate me and that's ok. I hate myself too," Remus said not meeting James's eyes. James sighed but he did not say anything which made Remus tense but then James started to laugh.
"Realy you think that I will hate you because of what you are. I don't care that you're a werewolf. You're my brother. Don't call yourself a monster. That's not right to call yourself that, I think you should look past everything. I'm mean, your only a wolf on the full moon, right? It's not like you're a full wolf all the time," James said as he got off his chair and walked over to Remus's chair as did Sirius. Remus watched with tears in his eyes as this happened.
"Remus, I know that you're not a monster. I know that I have known you for two days, but I know that you're not one," Sirius said with a smile. Remus smiled back at him and nodded.
"Your right Sirius you too James. Thank you. now can we eat and stop talking about my life hardships?" Remus said with a smirk which made James and Sirius laugh but James's parents did not, but they were glad that the three boys were getting along.
After dinner, Mr. Potter took the boys to show their rooms. Remus was scared of this part but then again, they did not care about what he was, so he was not all that worried. However, that worried feeling that Remus felt inside went away when he opened the door to his room. Remus's green eyes filled with tears when he saw the room. Books lined the walls and on his bed frame. Tears filled the werewolf's eyes as he turned around and smiled the biggest smile ever. "Thank you. Thank you. Wait, when did you get all of this and how did you know all of this?" Remus asked as he wiped the happy tears from his eyes. Mr. Potter smiled and said:
"Well do you remember when you and Sirius went out for ice cream?" Remus nodded and looked at James who gave him a look. "Well, while you were doing that, I went to get all of this. I did the same for you to Sirius," Sirius smiled as did Remus. "Well, while do we see your room, Sirius," Sirius nodded as Remus stayed behind in his room to unpack his things.
Sirius also had tears in his eyes when he saw his room, only his did not know what to do with this feeling, be loved. I mean Regulus loved him, but not like this. "I love it," Sirius said quietly with a small smile, but he was hiding his happy tears in his warm gray eyes. Which Mr. Potter saw but he smiled it anyway. Sirius looked around the room. Just like Remus's the walls were red and gold, no snakes. Which made Sirius happy, he hated snakes. There was a small desk by his bed which was bigger than Regulus which made him even happier. Like Remus's room, Sirius had books and shelves but unlike Remus, he did not have many. "Thank you, sir," Sirius said quietly again. Mr. Potter smiled and then said:
"You can call me dad if you want. Or Ben," Sirius nodded liking the idea that he does not have to call him father or sir like his old father and mother. The Black heir smiled to himself at this which Ben saw. "Well, why don't you and the others hang out before you go to bed," Sirius and James nodded as they walked into Sirius's room more. Remus walked in a few minutes later.
"What do you guys what to do?" Sirius asked as he took a sip from his butterbeer. James smiled at his new brothers; he has two new brothers. He could not wait to do things with them and go to Hogwarts with them. He can't wait to get to know them. James looked at Sirius and then at Remus who was looking at a book. Then he cleared his throat and said:
"I think we should get to know one another. I know that sounds stupid but…..." Remus laughed as did Sirius.
"We don't think that James," Remus said as he put his book down. James smiled and then started to talk about flying again soon Sirius joined in with Remus listening but not talking about it. Then Sirius looks at Remus and stared at him until Remus looked at him and asked:
"What? Oh, sorry I'm not used to talking with people sorry," Remus put down his book and sighed while Sirius and James nodded knowing why but they did not push him about it, not yet anyway.
"So, Remus, why don't you like flying? I mean you feel free in the air with the wind blowing. You don't have to worry about anything noting at all. I love the feeling," Remus nodded in understanding, but he just did not feel that way. He, however, felt that way when he was running or reading. The young werewolf sighed and said:
"I understand Sirius. however, I think I feel that way when I'm reading or running through the woods as a human, not in wolf form you know. Also, I like to get lost in a different world," Remus was looking out the window. James smiled and nodded as he listened to these kids, kids of his age that had been through so much. James smiled again when he thought of that redhead that he saw when he was shopping. Sirius saw this and laughed.
"Thinking about someone you like?" Sirius asked in a sing-song voice that made Remus laugh.
"Who are you thinking about James?" Remus joined in not thinking about how childish that sounded but the young werewolf did not care. Soon all four boys started talking about Lily, the girl Sirius and Remus meet while they were shopping. This, of course, made James yell:
"What! What is she like? Tell me, please," Remus rolled his green eyes and laughed so did Sirius.
"She's nice," Remus said in a dreamy voice that made it sound like Remus liked her too, but he does not. "I'm going to bed. Last full moon is still getting to me," James and Sirius nodded as Remus left the room. Soon James left the room and all three boys where asleep. Two in their new house and one with two new brothers.
