Sorry I haven't reviewed in a while. I have been having a bit of writer's block. I hope you are enjoying this story. Thanks for the reviews. This chapter will be more focused on Lily and Remus. I hope you enjoy. By the way thanks for the recommendations for a time turner fic but I'm not such a big fan of Dobby or Draco. I would still like to hear some more ideas though.

Chapter 7:Seventh Years and Full Moons

Remus' Pov

People were busy eating breakfast when I entered the Great Hall. James was talking to Minerva. Most of the students stared at me as I entered the room. I ignored the stares and the whispers. Professor Snape glared at me as I took the seat next to him.

"Severus can I collect the potion after breakfast." Severus nodded his eyes locked with a death glare. I sighed with relief, one I didn't want to do was transform without being under the influence of the wolvesbane potion. I grabbed the sausages and bacon and quickly wolfed them down. I needed all the strength I could get for tonight. The bell suddenly rang for lessons. James followed me as we took the stairs to my classroom.

The Fifth years were strangely quiet as we entered the classroom. I felt a bit apprehensive. I had decided against pushing the subject of werewolves to the last minute with this class. James noticed I was nervous and decided to introduce the topic for me.

"Today, we will be learning about werewolves as it is a commonly mentioned topic in OWLs examinations. Can anyone tell me how to identify a werewolf?" Angelina Johnson put her hand up as well as Fred and George. Most of the class looked clueless. I was suddenly composed and asked George to answer.

"Well they have some slightly different features to true wolves. They have different pupils, a different shape snout and a tufted tail."

"Yes, that's three signs to identify werewolves. 10 points to Gryffindor. Can anyone tell me how you can kill werewolves?" I hoped no one knew. Unfortunately someone did. Fred Weasley put his hand up.

"Silver and wolvesbane are normally used. Silver causes werewolves to be burnt but, if it enters the bloodstream it can cause a werewolf to be poisoned. Wolvesbane if in high concentrations near a werewolf can be unpleasant. This is because of their highly developed sense of smell. It can also harm them if the touch the plant directly."

"Another 10 points to Gryffindor. Know you will each write an essay on identifying and harming werewolves. Use the section from page 394 to help you write the essay. I want a foot and a half on the subject for the next lesson. Fred and George can me and James have a word with you. Class dismissed." The rest of the class left mumbling about the essay.

"Why do you know so much about werewolves?" James asked puzzled.

"Well we decided to look ahead and see if any of the topics were interesting."

"And we were bored with studying Hinkypunks. So we decided to read about werewolves."

"It's a lot more interesting. We also looked at dementors as well." I couldn't help but ask one more question.

"Why aren't you causing trouble in my lessons. I've heard from McGonagall and Flitwick about how you like to plan pranks in their lessons. Yet in my lessons you always pay full attention."

"Well you see, your lessons are normally interesting and we are usually kept so busy that we don't have time to plan pranks."

"You best be off then, after all we don't want you to be late." The twins smiled as they left.

"They seem like a real laugh Remus"

"Your right Prongs, they are a real laugh."

Lily's Pov

Hermione, Lavender and Parvati didn't mind me staying in their dorm. We had gossiped last night after I returned from the Shrieking Shack. Both Lavender and Parvati were obsessed with divination. Hermione agreed with me when we both said that the subject seems wooly. They were curious about what life had been like in France. I had to lie between my teeth. I tried to remember everything Remus used to stay about his childhood in France. Hermione stared at me with a look in her eyes that told me she didn't buy my story. Both Lavender and Parvati did however. Hermione suddenly dragged me to the bathroom.

"You have never lived in France, have you?" She asked, a smug look on her face.

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth, however you must promise not to tell anyone else."

"I promise."

"My real name is Lily Potter not Lily Lupin. I died in 1981. Me and my husband have both come back but we don't know why. He is Professor Lupin's assistant. Your right I have never lived in France but I do know someone who did. I'm sorry for lying but how do you explain that you have died but now you are alive. You can't." I starting crying. Hermione hugged me tightly. I mopped the tears away from my eyes and smiled a weak smile. I soon turned to leave, I had to get to breakfast to find Percy.

The Great Hall was nearly full when I entered it. I smiled as Remus entered the Hall. He smiled back at me. I wondered what happened between him and Sirius last night. Remus was busy talking to Severus but about what? Percy said he would escort me to lessons with Penelope, a Ravenclaw. I finished my toast quickly and headed to Charms with the others.

Professor Flitwick hadn't changed since I had left Hogwarts. He was still as kind as ever. The class was busy practicing non-verbal charms. Flitwick decided to talk to me quietly as I could do this easily.

"So Lily, how is it being a student here again."

"It's nice. I wonder how James is dealing with being a Professor's assistant? I do miss him and the others."

"Are the other seventh years treating you nicely."

"Percy is being really friendly even though his brothers are teasing him. I think I would have been friends with him if he was my age." The bell soon rang for the next lesson. Great potions. Snape seemed in a bad mood when we entered the classroom. He seemed to cheer up as he smiled at me. We were given the task to start brewing polyjuice potion in pairs. I was paired with Penelope. I read the instructions and then started writing a timetable for brewing the potion. We both followed the instructions and no one spoke in the entire lesson. The bell soon rang and Penelope and I cleaned up. Severus soon asked to have a quick word with me.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine Sev. Is that all you wanted to say?" I asked.

"You have Defence Against the Dark Arts next. Will you give this potion to Lupin. He seemed to forget to pick this up after breakfast." Sev passed me a steaming goblet. It was steaming slightly. I took the goblet quickly and rushed to my next class.

Most of the class was in the class when I entered it. I placed the goblet on Remus' desk and quickly sat down. He smiled as I sat down. James grinned at me. The lesson was on Dementors. I couldn't concentrate on the lesson. Remus was peaky and the shadows underneath his eyes were pronounced. He also seemed distracted. It was the full moon tonight. His lesson was apparently not as exciting as normal. James took control of most of the lesson. Remus sat back and took his potion. It seemed that the potion tasted foul as Remus' face screwed up as he swallowed. I took notes as I didn't want to cause any trouble over this Full Moon. It was getting hard to pretend to be a student when I knew most of the topics. I was getting bored in lessons. Perhaps I should talk to Dumbledore to swap lessons. Perhaps I was distracted because of what was going to happen tonight. Remus would become a blood thirsty monster incapable of human thoughts. He would lose his mind. He would also be in pain. I put my hand up and asked to be excused. Remus understood and granted me permission. This was the last lesson of the day. I headed straight to the dorm, got on the bed and cried myself to sleep, unaware that Remus would not lose his mind.

Remus' Pov

I could feel the moon's pull on me as I was teaching the seventh years. Lily seemed as distracted as I was. I was lucky Severus passed on the potion to her to give to me. I didn't want to lose my self-control tonight. I was lucky the lesson finished before moonrise. Lily left the lesson before the end. She was the only student aware of what would happen to me tonight. The bell rang and James passed me my cloak. James had decided that he would spend time with Lily. He thought that me and Sirius had some catching to do. I was very thankful. I rushed out of the castle before many of the students were heading to the Great Hall for dinner.

The Shrieking Shack was quiet as I entered. Sirius was napping in the bed. I still had two hours till moon rise. I climbed in and snuggled up to Sirius taking in his musky scent. He turned to smile at me. He started blushing slightly. He seemed to have become shy since Azkaban. I leaned in towards his lips. He held his breath. My lips met his. He responded by deepening the kiss. My head was spinning as his tongue probed for entrance. I allowed him in. This was better than the guilty dreams I had since Lily and James' deaths. Sirius was becoming more confident after every kiss, touch and bite. I was holding back my growls. I still felt a bit self-conscious. I soon fell the pull strengthen. My head was aching. I crawled out of bed. Sirius looked at me, a look of concern on his face. My body felt on fire. My bones were breaking and reforming. Fur was pushing through my skin. I was fully aware of the change due to the potion. Before the potion, I would feel my bones break but I was unaware of the reforming and fur growth. I hated the pain, but it was better to be aware of it and keep my mind, than to be unaware of most of it and not keep control. Sirius transformed along side me. He licked a spot behind my ear than Moony responded well to. Sirius was unaware that I had kept my mind. It did feel good. I licked Sirius back. I didn't want to remain in the Shack. I pawed at the door. Padfoot was shocked and followed me. We were going to have a real adventure in the forest.

I hope you enjoyed this. Please read and review.
