Author's Note: Thanks for the reviews. Sorry I haven't updated... VERY busy! Enjoy.

One late night, it was a few days before the full moon I listened into an interesting conversation. Well, parts of it were.

"How could he!" Aphrodite exclaimed. "That bastard lied to you!"

"Lower your voice," my mother said softly. "I know he lied. And yes I'm very angry at him. I wish John could just go away. I just can't belive she's here. Alive and well. I wonder what happened. Where she was living and all. I should of looked more. Oh Aphordite I feel horrible now! I'm a terrible parent."

"Don't say that! You did you're best. You don't know where she ranaway to. You did the best you can do. And now she's back. You're a great parent Diana. I mean most parents wouldn't do what you did." What Aphrodite meant about that was that Diana didn't abandon Remus when he was bitten (like most parents did at that time sadly).

"Yeah I guess. I don't know. I'm so tired. So you're staying here tonight I guess?"

"Why would I leave? Christmas is coming and why would I want to go home? There's no one back at my place. No cats to take care of,"

"You're thinking of becoming a cat lady? Oh Aphrodite too many surprises in a day!" Diana laughed.

Aphrodite laughed. "I know where my guest room is. Good night,"

"Night,"

That was my cue to go back to run back into my room. It was a plain looking room. I didn't have time to decorate. I looked outside and the moon was almost full. A bit of the moon was gone but tomorrw it would be full for sure. I sighed and crawled back into bed.

I wandered though the mysterious mansion with so many doors ajar leading to more clues. I had so many questions and not enough time for them to answered. The day of the full moon I walked passed a new room I never saw before. There was some furniture surrounded by dust. One of the pieces that caught my eyes was a small bed with faded pink bedding. Some teddy bears were lying on the bed. The walls were also a different shade of pink.

Then it hit me. This was my room… the room so innocent and child like. On the wood dresser there was a picture of John and a younger me. He was giving me a piggy back ride and I was laughing and waving to the camera.

"He really did love you," said a voice behind me. I jumped around to see mum. Her robes were worn out and she looked so tired.

"This was my room wasn't it?" I said dumbly aloud

"Yes it was. I kept your furniture because I thought. There was a chance that I could get you back. I didn't want to believe that you were dead…." Her voice trailed off. "Then as the years passed I kept the stuff I couldn't bear to sell or part with in this room. No one comes in here except for me sometimes to think," Diana went to one of the drawers in the wood dresser. She picked up a gorgeous ring. It had a large diamond in the middle and two rubies on the size, but it wasn't ostentatious, it was elegant.

"This was my engagement ring. Another thing I couldn't part with…" she sighed and then took out another ring. It wasn't as large as the other ring but it was still as beautiful. Instead of a diamond or a ruby it was just a simple pink stone ring. "John gave me so much jewelry. These are the only two pieces left."

"Oh," I said. I looked inside the dresser to find some adorable picutres of John and Diana and their friends that haven't been opened in ages. "Can I have this stuff please?"

"I was planning on giving you one of the rings. I thought Remus could use the other one to give to a girl if he ever got married." She said the last line with hope. "Oh but that other stuff, sure you can have it. Might have a lot of dust though,"

"OK thanks," I hugged her tightly. "Thanks for the chat!" I ran out of the room carrying three heavy photo albums.

Most of the pictures were the magic kind (some were the muggle kind since the people didn't move). There was Diana with her best friends at Hogwarts. I met only one of them--Aphrodite. On the back of the picture someone who has messy handwriting wrote "Diana, Athena, Hera and Aphordite in their 5th year." The girls were waving, their smiles bright. A few pictures later was a younger verison of mum with a good looking man holding her. "Diana and John (18)." Only one picture later was Diana again but this time in bed holding a baby boy and trying to not be seen with the camera and John is grinning. "Diana, John and their new baby boyRemus John." The same messy handwriting was on the back of most pictures.

"Rachel dinner!" Aphrodite called. I had no clue that I spent all this time looking at photos.

"Coming!" and I ran down to find Diana cooking and Remus and Aphrodite sitting at the kitchen table.

"Did you enjoy looking at the photos?" asked Diana handing out plates with food... yum.

"Yeah." I said. "It was interesting seein you as a teenager. Very pretty, both of you were. I saw most of Remus' lovely baby pictures. Nice naked bath tub one." I grinned. Usually if it wasn't close to the full moon he would of reacted and maybe laughed but no that didn't happen. His head was on the table and asleep.

"Remus! You need to eat before you go into the basement!" Diana poked him and he eventually woke up.

"No thanks." he yawned. "Can I sleep?"

"You need something in your stomach Remus," Aphrdoite said.

"Sure. Fine. Whatever. I think I'm going to go to the basement a bit earlier ok. Bye," Remus could be how do I say... very moody before the full moon.

"Ok then,"

Diana made this really good chicken. It was nice to have food that was acutally cooked and not frozen foods that you put in a mircowave thing.

"This is sooo good!" I said.

"Glad you like it." said Diana happily.

"Is Remus always that moody?" I asked and took a sip of water.

"Yeah, but more moodier than ever." Diana exclaimed.

"He's 13 now that's why." said Aphrodite. "He's a teenager now and most teens can be a bit moody."

"Like Athena," smiled Diana

"Athena is another story," Aphrodite laughed. "She had her own catagory of moodiness."

"What happened to her?" I asked.

"She died," said Diana "She had a muggle boyfriend and they both died in a car accident,"

"Oh that's terrible," I said. Aphrodite gave Diana a look and Diana gave her that look back.

"Since Remus is down there early I should go down and lock the door." Diana said. She took some chicken on plate to see if he changed his mind.

"Can I come with you?" I asked.

"You're sure?"

"Yeah."

I followed Diana to the basement. The basement had this cave like creepy feeling. We stopped at this sturdy metal door. It had to big locks that you can only lock from the outside. Diana opened the door to find Remus lying on the floor.

"Hey," he said looking at the ceiling.

"Here's some food if you want it," Diana said and handed him the food.

"Thanks," Remus said and had a few bites. "It's almost time. You should really go."

Diana gave him a hug and wished him luck (which yes he needed). We walked out of the small room and Diana locked the two locks.

"Can you hear him from here?" I asked.

"Yes and you can hear the howls from most parts of the house," my mother replied sadly

A little while later I heard it. Oh it was horrible. Even now if we don't have a Wolfsbane potion it's so terrible to hear the screams and howls.

"Why you stupid moon why?" I asked it. I was in my bedroom sitting on my window seat. It gave me no reply (if it did then we should worry) it just kept shining back at me.

Please review.
