Another chapter here for you... What will happen! You will have to read and find out! :)

Remus POV

The months since Voldemort's return passed really quickly, it was already November and we had gotten almost nowhere with our plans. So far all we knew was that he was after a Prophecy in the department of mysteries. We didn't know which one and with Fudge not cooperating we were unable to get in to look.

Megan spent most of the time in our room, not really talking to anyone, even me. I wasn't sure why but it felt like she was driving a wedge between herself and the world, like she used to and, I know a year and a half had passed since I had found out about her breaking her promise to me and helping Sirius but it still really bothered me. I still didn't feel able to completely trust her and I didn't know if I ever would. I wouldn't say anything to her, there is nothing she could say or do to change the way things were now between us. I just had to hope time would heal that wound but was it too late, was our relationship coming to an end.

I leaned my head back against the sofa cushion and sighed just as Tonks came into the living room with a cup of tea in hand.

"Are you alright Remus?" She asked. I gave her a questioning look before answering her question with another.

"Why would you think I wasn't?" She sat down next to me and took a small sip from the mug.

"Just a feeling." She said after a moment. "Do you want to talk about it?" I sighed again and lent forwards, putting my head in my hands and rubbing my eyes.

"I honestly don't think it will make much difference." I muttered. "It won't change things."

"Sometimes it helps just to talk." Silence fell between us for a while as I considered telling her.

"I think I am loosing Megan." I said eventually.

"Why would you think that?"

"A couple years ago she promised me something, what it was isn't important now but she broke that promise and... I don't feel I can really trust her anymore." It felt weird saying these things out loud but in a good way.

"It was important to you." Tonks said and I nodded slightly.

"It also feels like... she is so caught up with what is going on at the moment, with Harry and You-Know-Who's return... It feels like she is distancing herself... like she used to." I thought back to how Megan was when I first met her, back when we were sixteen. She was very withdrawn back then, she wouldn't let anybody close, like she was afraid of getting hurt.

"Used to?"

"She used to keep her distance from people. I think it was to stop her from getting hurt. She didn't want to get to close to anyone and now she is staying in our room by herself, not talking to anyone, including me."

"That is what some people do." Tonks said, putting a reassuring hand on my leg. "We are in hard times at the moment. I think this is her way of protecting herself. Trying to make herself believe that she doesn't care so if the situation were to arise when somebody gets hurt or killed, it won't hurt her so badly." She took another sip of her tea. "She will come back to you Remus; it just might take a while."

Megan POV

Months whizzed by. I had initially begun to withdraw myself after the Boggart attack and I only got worse when I heard Harry had been attacked by Dementors. I couldn't face the idea of loosing someone close to me, like my sister.

I was no longer worried that it would be my fault that they were hurt but I couldn't shake the feeling that there was nothing I could do to help them. So I created a distance between us so that if the situation were to arise when someone I loved died, it wouldn't hurt so much. That was my theory anyway.

With each month Remus tried less to get me to talk to him. It was only getting worse but I couldn't help myself. It was June now and the only contact I ever had with Remus was when he kissed me goodnight. The last time we had spoken properly was a month ago. Don't get me wrong, I am still in love with him, losing him would end me, but I couldn't bring myself to speak. It was like I was stuck in the past, re-living my childhood, going through all of my losses over and over in my mind.

I knew Remus was going to get fed up of my behaviour someday and move on from me. But what could I do? I was just so depressed all of the time and not even he could bring me out of it like he used to be able to with such ease.

I had noticed his growing closeness to Tonks. I was grateful to her for being there for him while I wasn't. He deserved at least someone.

I hadn't even noticed when everyone had left the house. I didn't know where they had gone but when I went downstairs to the kitchen to grab something to eat, there was no one there. I buttered myself some bread and took a seat at the table. I was going to make a change. Things had gone way too far now. Remus needed me back.

Literally as this thought arose in my mind I heard the front door open. I stood up and ran to see who it was. Remus was first through the door followed by everyone else. I went over and hugged him telling him I was sorry for how I had been for almost the last year but when I stepped back and saw the grim expressions of everyone I felt my smile drop.

"I think you should sit down Megan." Said Remus, taking my hand and pulling me back towards the kitchen.

"Why? What's happened?" I asked, my voice was the strongest it had been in months.

"Sirius is dead." He said slowly as if still trying to wrap his own head around it. I couldn't take it. I knew something bad was going to happen. I was going to lose someone I cared about and right when I had decided that I was being silly, negative and worrying too much, the unthinkable happened. One of my closest friends was dead and I recoiled back into myself. Not saying anything, not doing anything, everything that someone said to me was just noise.

I could see my future before me, Remus would give up on me and my friends would all die in this hopeless war we were fighting. I would be alone and it would most likely be my fault, but as usual I couldn't help it... It's who I am.

So that was pretty much the whole of Order of the Phoenix in one chapter. Sorry if you were expecting more but I really wanted to get to Half Blood Prince. (I have my reasons)

Please review, the next chapter will be up very soon. :)
