Chapter 7

It was early in the morning way before school hours; the birds were chirping, the sun was slowly starting to peak out and luckily for me the marauders were fast asleep. I snuck up the boys staircase and slowly crept into their room, shutting the door as quietly as I could and looking for James's bed. My eyes scanned the room and easily found the boy with messed up hair. I grinned and moved towards the trunk of his bed, slowly opening it and grabbing what I needed.

The invisibility cloak.

I slowly shut the trunk and like a mouse I quickly got out of there. I wrapped the thin material around myself and exited the common room making my way to the library. The hallways were deserted and I was sure that the only ones that were awake were the ghosts and probably- Argus Filch the caretaker with his annoying devil cat.

'Alohamora," I muttered when I reached the locked library door. For once in my life, the odds were in my favor because it suddenly unlocked. I let out a sigh of relief, thankfully Madam Pince wasn't smart enough to put a charm on the library to keep students out. I moved towards the restricted section, the section that you were only allowed to enter if you had a note from a professor.

My eyes scanned the shelves, I saw books I had never knew existed before and many books about the forbidden dark arts. My eyes landed on the book I needed to find the most. The book about werewolves, I opened it slightly to see if it would start screaming at my face but fortunately for me - it stayed quiet. But before I had a chance to read it, the light flickered on and Madam Pince walked in. My eyes widened and I quickly took the book and hid it under the cloak.

"Who's in here?!" Madam Pince screeched. She then proceeded to walk around the library trying to see who it was that cast a spell on the lock. She was about to cross into the restricted section but thank Godric, she chose not to.

"Stupid kids.." Madam Pince mumbled to herself.

I looked at the clock on the wall, it was five o' clock. I remembered that for next time I tried to sneak in here, I took the chance to point my wand at my feet and mutter the silencing spell so when I left, she wouldn't hear me. Madam Pince sighed frustratedly at the pile of work on her desk and got up, making herself a drink. I took this chance to leave before she noticed one of the books were missing.

I had never run so fast in my life.

"You know the funniest thing happened when I woke up today." James voice said as he sat down next to me in the great hall, I put a piece of toast in my mouth and nodded.

I swallowed, "I don't want to know."

He rested his hand on his cheek and laughed sarcastically, "No, no you'll laugh. I woke up and guess what I didn't find? My cloak. Isn't that hilarious?"

Oh no, I still had the cloak in my bag.

I laughed awkwardly, "Wow, isn't that just the strangest thing?" He knew.

He narrowed his eyes at me and gave me a mistrustful look. "What did you do?"

I scoffed, shooting him one of my innocent looks. "Excuse me? I am offended James Potter! You assume that if something goes missing it must have to do with me? That is incredibly rude." I said, getting up to leave before he gently grabbed my arm and sat me down.

"Winnie don't play dumb. I know it was you- you're the only one who's bothered enough to wake up that early. Now what did you do?" He shot me a concerned/amused look.

I touched the loose strands of my hair. "Ask me in a couple of hours." I said blankly.

He raised his eyebrow, "A couple of hours? why?"

"Let's just say that I am the best friend any friend could ever have." I said smugly.

"What does that have to do with anything?" He gave me a confused look.

"Just wait and see, Potter. Wait and see." I took another bite of my toast.

"Godric, you're weird. How am I even friends with you?" He asked, mostly to himself.

I laughed and then remembered something important, "Oh! could you tell the teachers that I'm sick with the flu?"

He chuckled, "Alright, can I ask why?"

I took another bite of the toast. "You can but you're not going to get an answer."

"I thought as much." He shrugged.

I grabbed my bag and swung it over my shoulder then I proceeded to pat him on the head, "Thanks Potter. See you." I said and winked. James Potter just shook his head and smiled.

Once I was out of hearing and seeing capacity I carefully and swiftly took out the invisibility cloak and made my way to the potions cabinet, the private cabinet that belonged to the school where all the ingredients were stored. I opened the (surprisingly) unlocked door and grabbed the ingredients that I needed.

I found myself in the astronomy tower once again! The werewolf book open in front of me as well as the ingredients to make wolfsbane potion. Wolfsbane potion was a potion that werewolves took every day a week before the full moon to relieve the symptoms of lycanthropy or as I like to call it 'wolf disease' basically the potion allowed the user to have more control over what he was doing and also prevents a werewolf from going insane. Basically I was doing this for Remus, because despite the fight we had- he was still one of my best friends and he was still suffering each month. I felt like it was my moral duty to at least help him in some way.

I glanced at the book infront of me, "Monkshood..ashwinder eggs..mandrake and moonstone." I said, reading the ingredients out loud. The potion was incredibly complex, but I had nothing to lose. Except my life of course.

I carefully and skillfully added the ingredients, I had never been so detail-oriented in my life. The potion suddenly changed into a lavender color when I had finished. My eyes widened, wasn't it supposed to turn blue?! A moment later a faint blue smoke rose from the potion and thankfully, it had turned light blue. Like it should have.

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding, "YES!" I said grinning.

I carefully put the potion into seven vials and kept the rest in a large jar for next month, a wide smile attached to my face - the sort of smile that made you look like you had a hanger in your mouth. I looked up and realized that the sun had gone down, how long had I been here? That didn't matter all that mattered was that I had finished the potion.

Finally, I could actually help.

I skipped into the common room happily, but was surprised when I couldn't find the boys between all the students there.

"Anyone seen the boys?" I asked no one in particular.

"They're upstairs apparently Remus came down with a cold." a short red-head said.

I smiled and thanked her politely before I ran up the boys stairs. Oh no, he had already began to feel tired - one of the side affects of lycanthropy. I knocked on the door twice and waited. Nobody came to the door, I rolled my eyes and just walked in, unfazed. They were all sitting around Remus's bed, chatting quietly and looking very..serious.

"Hey everyone!" I said happily before I took in their expressions, "Whats wrong?"

"Remus is acting like a baby." Sirius said crossing his arms.

He laughed bitterly, "Yeah, sorry I can't toughen up and be like you mate."

He narrowed his eyes at him. "Whats that supposed to mean?"

"Guys- stop." James said warningly.

"No, if you've got something to say Remus. Don't be shy - spit it out, then." Sirius said fiercely.

I decided it was time I interfered, "You'll be happy to hear that I have found a solution to your problem, Remus." I said loudly, getting their attentions.

"What? you found me a cure to stop me from being a werewolf?" He asked spitefully.

I sat on the edge of his bed, "Yes and no." I took out one of the vials from my bag. "Remus, I found you something that can alleviate the symptoms. Something that won't cure you but will make it a lot easier to deal with."

"Wolfsbane." He said breathlessly and sat up, taking the vial. "Where did you get this?"

"I- um I made it." I said nervously, tucking a curly strand of hair behind my ear.

His eyes looked like they were going to fall out his face. "You made it? How?"

"Is this what you took my cloak for?" James asked.

I nodded at him and turned to Remus, "It doesn't matter how just take it please. It'll help, I promise. But if you die, it's not my fault!"

He took it all at once and then made a disgusted face, "That's repulsive.." he said making everyone laughed. His gaze then fell on me. "I don't know what to say Winnie, honestly. I-"

I cut him off. "Okay, save the sentiments for another time. I'm just- I'm just glad I could help." I said the last part shyly.

"You didn't just help, Winnie. You saved his life." Sirius smiled softly at me, putting his hand on my shoulder.

"Yeah, good on you mate." James grinned.

"Good job." Peter muttered and avoided my gaze.

"Thanks a lot, Winnie." Remus said, with a smile.

I felt myself grow hot from all the attention I was getting, "Thanks guys -Oh!" I suddenly remembered and took the six vials out of my bag and handed it to him. "You have to take these for the next six days, alright? If they work then you can sleep through the transformation."

"I can sleep through it?" He asked, his tone was a mix between happiness and shock.

I nodded, "Yeah."

Sirius looked between us and said, "I don't mean to ruin the mood here or anything but I'm starving- anyone want to go to the kitchens?"

James looked like he had been awakened, "Yes! finally, lets go." He said, grinning and then turned to Peter. "You coming, Wormtail?"

Wormtail nodded and followed them out of the room then paused and mumbled a quick goodbye to me and Remus. I wasn't sure if Sirius was actually hungry (probably) or if he was trying to leave me alone with Remus. I figured it was a mixture of both.

"Winnie, I just want to tell you how much this means to me." Remus began. "I know you'll call me a sentimental idiot but just hear me out, okay? You're probably one of the best people I have ever met in my entire life. I mean, two days ago we were fighting and you still- you still made me this. How many people do you know would do something like that? You have no idea what this means to me, Winnie. I-just thank you."

I was touched, he had never said anything so honest and meaningful like that to me. I wanted to say something- anything! But I didn't really know how to behave in emotional situations so I just gave him a big hug which he quickly responded to by wrapping his arms around me, the hug was warm and peaceful - a bit like him. After a long minute, I pulled away and gave him with a smile and said:

"You're welcome, Moony."
