Je suis continuer cette histoire pour le loup-garou brun. Parce que elle voudrais plus de Remus.

Because TBW needs some Remus goodness and I could not come up with any new ideas. Pour vous mon amie xx

Everyone else – I don't know where this will go or when it might be updated next. But it appears as these will be appearing in a monthly fashion. So just bear with me kay? Also, please forgive me for any OOC'ness. I do not usually write HP stuff, as some of my regulars can tell.

Nothing

He lay there for what seemed to be hours, but in reality it was only for about thirty minutes. He panted heavily and waited for the tears to dry up before dragging his now severely aching body up to its feet. He really wasn't built for this. His body wasn't made to withstand this kind of punishment, surely even Lucius knew that. But Lucius was a very cruel, and a very sadistic man. As Remus had already discovered, already having been blackmailed into doing Malfoy's bidding; Remus allowing his body to be used by him whenever Lucius so desired it. Or else suffer the humiliation of being named and shamed as a werewolf and kicked out of the school and sent away from his friends. He couldn't let that happen. He couldn't bring even more shame onto the Lupin family by being discovered. As if simply being a werewolf wasn't disgraceful enough as it is without everybody in the whole school knowing what he was.

He stumbled to his feet, walking over to the mirror hanging above the sink. God, he looked a mess. Tear stains were on his cheeks and his face looked pale and gaunt. Dark circles were underneath both of his eyes because he hadn't slept properly for days now. And this abuse from Lucius certainly wasn't helping the lunar symptoms either. In fact it was just making them worse.

He looked at himself, at his body in the mirror. He felt so filthy and dirty. So used. He just looked a complete mess. He didn't make a single noise when he stepped over to his clothes that were lying in a pile on the floor on the other side of the room. He had tried to run away from Lucius earlier, only to be slammed up against the wall and fucked against his will. Being made to scream and be in such a tremendous amount of pain that he couldn't bear it. He quietly pulled on his clothes and mentally told himself not to think about. Pushing all of the previous events to the back of his mind as he dressed and put his shoes back on again, only now realising just how cold he was. He took one last look at himself in the mirror and straightened up his hair and uniform to make it appear that he was the normal old regular Remus. The Remus that wasn't hurting or suffering. The Remus that always smiled and laughed with the others. The fake Remus. He took a deep breath and shrugged his shoulders, putting on the best false smile he could muster as he left, getting ready to make his way down to the great hall for dinner.

"Hey Moony! Where ya been?" James asked as a rather late Remus Lupin casually strolled over to the table and plonked himself down onto the seat next to Sirius, directly opposite James.

"Oh nowhere. I just took a nap and overslept, that's all."

"Oh well that's alright then." James replied, taking a rather disgusted look at Wormtail who was currently stuffing his face with corn like the scavenger that he was.

"You haven't missed much, just Wormtail stuffing his face." He said, referring to Wormtail, who seemed quite confused and thought he had missed something when he gathered that James was talking about him.

"Huh, what? Me?"

"No, nothing wormtail. Just go back to your corn cob." Sirius told him, just waving him off like he were a fly buzzing aound him before noticing Lupin's saddened expression.

"Remus, what's wrong?"

Remus looked up, quickly. Not really looking at Sirius properly when he replied to him. And not really wanting to either after what he'd already been through.

"Oh, it's nothing Padfoot. I'm fine."

"But you don't look fine." He stated, bluntly. He always had been concerned about Remus and his health, for he knew what time of the month this was, having glanced at the lunar calendar earlier. "Is something going on? Are you sick?"

"No, I'm not sick. Nothing's going on Sirius; I told you I'm fine."

Sirius glared seriously at him, because really Remus did not look well at all. Remus only growled back at him,

"Don't you look at me like that!"

Sirius sighed, quite confused at his friends sudden change in mood. He really only wanted to look out for him, they were friends right?

"Remus what the hell? Look, I'mm just worried about you that's all. You look really ill."

And that was when Remus just snapped at him, and started screaming and yelling at him. Because what he was saying to him really made Lucius' statements about them right, even though in reality there was nothing going on between them.

"Nothing is going on Sirius! I already told you I am fine! Stop asking me!"

"Remus, I –"

"Oh, fuck off Sirius!" he screamed at him, not really knowing or caring about the scene he was causing as he stormed out, or even thinking about the rumours that would fly around now. Simply because he was just too wound up and angry to even care. All he wanted was for people to stop worrying about him. He was perfectly capable of taking care of himself, even if he was being abused.

James just sat there and watched him leave, along with the other three marauders who were sitting there shocked and gob smacked at Lupin's sudden outburst. He sighed deeply before turning to Sirius again.

"I guess you better go after him."
