Sirius Competition
I don't own HP. J. K. Rowling does.
The next morning the group met up at that lake again.
"So Sevvy is out." Sirius said, grinning.
"Sevvy?" Lily questioned. She wasn't in the mood to stand up for Severus, who wasn't even there.
"So it would be his turn, but he didn't do it. Lily, ask away." Remus said.
"Um... Remus- truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Um... what's you're biggest secret?" Lily asked. "I'm sorry, it's kind of a girlyish question-" She stopped when she saw Remus flush.
"Moony-" Remus whispered then groaned.
"What?" Lily looked confused.
"It's not for your ears, Evans." James defended. Lily looked shocked at what James had just said.
"James-" Remus said, warningly.
"Ask another question." Sirius said, looking worried.
"Err... is that allowed?" Lily said. She was pale from what James had said to her, and how he called her Evans instead of Lily.
"YES, JUST ASK." James bellowed.
"Why-?"
"Evans, must you know everything? Some things are meant to be secrets. They have reasons so just ask a new question!" Sirius said, attempting to be calm.
"It's okay." Remus spoke clearly but slowly.
"Wha-Moony?" James questioned.
"I think she'll understand." Remus whispered.
"You don't have to, Moony." Sirius said, gently.
"But I will."
"Really? Are you sure it's- okay to tell?" James asked.
"It is."
"Okay. If you're okay with it." Sirius said, bewildered. Lily had never heard Sirius or James speak so supportively to anyone.
"Umm... Lily, I'm a werewolf." Remus paled again. Lily burst out laughing.
"Nice charade," She laughed. "Remus could never be a dark creature like a werewolf!" She continued to laugh as Sirius raised his fist. Remus held him back. Remus himself was on the verge of tears. Sirius lead Remus back inside, James trailing behind. He glared at Lily, who had just stopped laughing and was wondering what was going on.
"James?" She called. James was already inside with the others.
"She thought I was lying." Remus said, between sobs.
"What does she know?" Sirius said.
"She said that werewolves were d-dark creat-tures!"
"She doesn't know a thing about werewolves," James said. He now hated Lily.
"You just have a furry little problem, that's all." Sirius attempted to smile.
"Once a month you turn into our cuddly best friend!" James smiled. Remus also smiled a watery smile.
"Here have some chocolate." Sirius gave Remus a piece or Honeydukes finest chocolate.
"Thanks guys." Remus was glad he had such supportive friends.
The three marauders had missed dinner (they snuck into the kitchens that night to get some- Sirius would never skip a meal!) and Lily was worried. She grabbed her book and ran to the Gryffindor Common room. She couldn't find them.
"Where they serious? Is he a werewolf?" Lily thought. "No... that is impossible." She had many, many questions. She sat on the couch to see the Marauders walk in, covered with chocolate. "Hey guys!" She called. They didn't even look at her. They just went into there room and snacked on chocolate. She decided to eavesdrop.
"Ahhhh, chocolate is amazinggggg." Remus moaned.
"BEST NIGHT EVA-WHOOO!" Sirius called.
"Yeah... best night," James said.
"Is little Prongsie still mad about this morning?" Sirius asked with fake sympathy.
"No but Lil' Mooner is!" James looked at Remus's sad face.
"Lil' Mooner? I like it!" Sirius said, trying to cheer Remus up.
"Then you can be Baby Padtoe." Remus said, smiling again. He nibbled on more chocolate.
"Ewww... padtoe?" Sirius said with dislike.
"I LOVE IT!" James laughed.
"Hahaha, me too!" Remus giggled.
"Of coarse you do, Lil' Mooner!" James said.
"Mooner? Why Mooner?" Remus whined.
"Well, you are Moony! And when you were little you would moon everyone." Sirius said.
"No I didn't!" Remus said over James's laughing fit.
"Whatever you say!"
I'm so sorry about the wait! It took me /forever/ to finish my project so I had to put this of. I will try and update every couple days (as in 2 or 3 days). Thanks for reading and keep reviewing!
