James and Sirius decided to confront Remus the next day and they would not leave him alone until he gave them a definite, honest answer. They had debated for a long time whether or not they should tell Peter. Peter had proven countless times what a horrible liar he was so if anyone was going to blurt it out in front of everyone it would be him. On the other hand, he was their friend and he was just as concerned about Remus as they were so he had a right to know.
They told him before breakfast with the threat that if he so much as breathed a word of it to anyone they would attack him with the most creative jinxes that they could think of. Sirius even went so far as to describe one of these particular jinxes to Peter in great detail to make sure that he got the message.
Together they walked into the Great Hall, spotted Remus and walked over to him. James and Sirius sat on either side of him while Peter sat across from him to minimise his chances of escaping.
"Hi guys. You ready for Transfiguration this morning?" Remus asked, disturbed by how they were all staring at him.
"Remus we know," said James.
"Know what?" Remus looked confused.
"We know," James tried again.
Remus still looked as though he had no idea what they were talking about. Sirius glanced around making sure nobody was paying them any attention and then said, "We know you're a werewolf."
"What?!" choked Remus. He looked terrified. "What are you…….how could you…"
"We figured it out," said Peter loudly, looking quite pleased with himself until Sirius kicked him under the table.
"But-"
"Why didn't you tell us Remus?" James looked genuinely hurt as he said this which shocked Remus more than anything else.
"Are you joking?" spluttered Remus. Sirius, the first to sense danger, got up pulling Remus with him.
"Come on," he muttered. He walked out of the Great Hall and into the first empty classroom he could find; still pulling Remus along in his wake with James and Peter following.
Once the door was closed, they all turned to Remus who looked as though he were bracing himself for the worst.
"I suppose you all hate me now," he mumbled.
"What?" asked James assuming that he had heard wrong.
"Well who would want to be friends with a….a….you know."
"Why the hell would we waste our time getting house points knocked off and sitting through endless detentions for someone we didn't want to be friends with?"
"You mean…" Remus didn't dare say it; he wouldn't let himself believe it.
"Of course we still want to be friends with you. You idiot!" said Sirius. Remus looked as though Christmas had come early.
"Really?"
"Yep," Peter said happily. Remus turned to him and saw that even he was standing there resolute.
"The only question now is: how are we going to manage to sneak out with you?"
