Chapter 28

Sirius

McGonagall believed the story about Remus not feeling too good because of the full moon. Though it wasn't exactly a lie. And I stuck to what I had said that morning, and checked on him between classes. When I went up before my last class – potions –, I opened the door quietly. Remus got tired before the full moon sometimes, and I did not want a grumpy werewolf on my hands. But he wasn't asleep. He was sitting on his bed staring at the keys I had given him last night. He had one of the rings of one of the key chains around his middle finger, so the keys rested in his palm. His mouth was turned up in a small smile, I loved his smile. That sounds stupid, yes, but it's true. His other hand was resting near Paddy, who was curled up next to him, asleep.

"Hey, you ok?" I asked.

Remus jumped about a foot in the air placing the keys back in the box quickly, and placing the box in a draw in a flash. I couldn't help but laugh. With all the moving around, I was surprised he hadn't woken Paddy up.

"Sirius, bloody hell, you scared me half to death!" Remus sighed, slumping slightly.

"I'm sorry love, I didn't mean to." I replied, surprising a smirk.

Remus smiled, shaking his head, as I walked over and sat down next to him. I pulled him onto my lap, so his back was against my chest, and leant back against the headboard.

"You didn't answer my question." I told him, resting my chin on his right shoulder.

"I'm fine." Remus chuckled. "Feel a little sick, but I'm fine."

"You sure?"

"Positive."

"Alright. Any reason why you were looking at the keys?"

"No reason. Just wanted to."

I smiled slightly and kissed his neck.

"Oh no, if you're going to do that, you can leave." Remus told me, his voice serious.

"What did I do?" I asked, genuinely confused.

Remus turned, on my lap, to the right and pulled down the collar of his shirt – he had changed into joggers/sweat pants and a t-shirt. And then I saw the mark that I had left him with last night, the mark that was part of the reason why we had to semi-lie to McGonagall that morning.

"Oh, right." I said, as he turned back around in my lap. "Sorry about that."

"No you're not, I know you're smirking." Remus replied.

"How would you know?"

"I know you; therefore I know what you do. Plus, I can feel it."

"Damn you."

I tell Remus was smiling triumphantly. He always did when he proved someone wrong, but I was the only one that knew that.

"I have a question." Remus said.

"Go on." I replied.

"Are you planning on going to your last class?"

"Nope, James can manage it without me. Anyway, you're much more interesting than potions."

"Oh, I can see where this is going."

"Clever boy."

Paddy didn't wake up until James came back from class, to get rid of his books. James practically slammed the door, which caused the poor puppy to yelp and almost fall off of Remus' bed. Luckily, Remus caught him and placed Paddy beside us before he fell. But Paddy kept trying to climb onto Remus.

"Thanks for leaving me in potions mate." James grumbled.

"Sorry Prongs, I got a bit preoccupied." I smirked.

"I swear you're worse now than you were before you two got together."

"What can I say, Rem's changed me."

"Oi, don't being me into this." Remus said, picking Paddy up. "I'm innocent in all of this."

"Rem, you stopped being innocent the night we shagged."

"Pads! Really!" James yelled. "I didn't want that mental image!"

"Well tough, you have it now."

I dodged the pillow James threw in my direction, while I hit him square in the face when I threw it back. Remus just shook his head, as he went to get Paddy more water. But he did look considerably redder than before. It was very easy to embarrass Remus. Well, very easy for me anyway. When Remus knelt down to place Paddy and Paddy's water bowl back on the floor, I saw James' eyes go wide for the second time that day.

"Moony?" James asked.

"Yeah Prongs." Remus replied, standing up properly.

"Why is there a bite mark on your shoulder?"

"Sirius, I'm going to kill you."

For the second time that day, James burst into hysterics. I, on the other hand, tried to escape the dorm. However, I had no such luck, with the full moon so close, Remus was faster than normal, so the exit was blocked instantly.

"Er...I love you." I smiled.

"Love you too, but that won't save you." Remus replied, matter-of-factually.

To be honest, I was quite worried. I think anyone would be though, because this side of Remus rarely made itself known.

"Dude, you're in for it now." James cackled.

"James. Leave." Remus growled.

"See ya."

James pranced out of the room – well, he didn't actually, but hey, that's what I'm going with. Remus locked the door behind him, both manually and with magic, and I think he put a silencing spell on the room too, but I wasn't sure.

That night, Remus didn't go down to dinner, he didn't feel too good and fell asleep rather quickly. But that didn't mean he hadn't had time to 'make me pay'. Oh, but what a way to make me pay. I mean, if that's the 'punishment' I got, then I would do anything within my power to get that to happen again. Yes, I'm weird, I know. Oh well!

"Hey Pads, you ok? Moony didn't seem too happy." James asked, as we sat down.

"Yeah, 'm fine. Perfectly fine." I grinned.

"What happened?"

My grin grew, almost making me look just as insane as I actually was.

"Um, Jamie? I don't think you want to know." Lily told him.

"Why not?" James asked.

Then he caught the look on my face.

"You know what, never mind." James replied, his voice going slightly higher. "Thanks Lils."

"No problem Jamie." Lily smiled, giggling with her friends.

"You had to ruin all my fun." I sighed, dramatically.

"If I had ruined all you fun, then I would have walked into your dorm a few minutes before you decided to reappear in the common room."

"Touché."

"Wow, such a big word for you."

"That's exactly what Remus said during the Christmas holidays."

James and Lily laughed. The only thing that would have made this night better was if Remus was down here with us. Damn moon. You know, if I did end up doing anything useful with my life, I hoped it would be finding a cure for lycanthropy, and hopefully that would be quite soon after we left Hogwarts. But I could only hope that one day that would happen, just so I could spare Remus the pain three times a month. Just so I could make him just that bit happier.

Anything that you think would fit well in this, please let me know :) as long as it's nothing sad or bad, that would be great XD
