Remus walked in to the classroom, arriving early as always. He wanted to get a seat at the very front of the classroom. It was easier to concentrate when he sat close to the teacher. At the back of the classroom sat the louder students, writing notes to each other and whispering during the lessons.

Professor McGonagall gave Remus a kind smile when she walked up to her desk. She, like the other teachers knew everything about Remus' situation. They usualy gave him more time to return his homework after the full moons. But it was very rare that Remus needed it.

When more students entered the classroom, it filled with a buzzing noise of voices and people drawing back the chairs. Remus was looking down at his text book, browsing through the pages of today's chapter, when he heard a female voice beside him and then felt someone tap his shoulder lightly.

"Excuse me," said Lily Evans and Remus looked up at her. "Is it alright if I sit here?" she smiled.

"Ye- erm...yeah," said Remus and blushed when he had to clear his throat in the middle of his answer. It always got like this when he hadn't spoken in a while. Now that he thought about it, he realised that he hadn't actually said anything since last night.

"Thanks!" She sat down and placed her books on the desk next to his. Remus looked around the classroom. He noticed that there were lots of free seats so he wondered to himself why Lily would choose to sit next to him. He glanced over at her as she looked through her essay due in for today. Remus had turned it in three days ago, just to get it out of his mind. Lily noticed that he was watching her and she smiled at him. She didn't have time to say anything to him though as professor McGonagall started the lesson.

Xoxoxoxox

"Oh, I can't make this thing work!" complained Lily after her fifth try to turn her quill into a pocket watch. Remus had managed it on his second try. He now had a golden, perfectly detailed and ticking watch on his desk. He looked over at Lily's. It didn't look bad at all, the only problem was that it didn't work.

"Do you want any help?" asked Remus kindly, more than willing to help out as he didn't have anything to do now. Lily accepted his help and after he'd adviced her how to do it, she managed to make the watch work on her second try.

Remus enjoyed Transfiguration and he was pretty good at it too. He had always had the highest grade in it. What was less enjoyable was his next class. He had had problems with Potions from year one, it just wouldn't work for him. But that's not the worst part. This was the only class they had together with the Slytherins. It meant that he had to listen to them mocking him behind Professor Slughorn's back. And for some reason that Remus couldn't understand, both Sirius Black and James Potter were stunning in potions which made the whole thing worse. To Remus, that gave them an actual reason to tease him about his lack of skills.

He sat down at the table with Peter Pettigrew. It felt safer for him to have someone he knew by his table who also was at the same skill level as he was. As Remus predicted, the lesson had barely started, he was still reading through the potion instructions when he heard someone hiss behind him.

"Lupin!"

He turned around and glared at Black who was smirking at him. It was usually him or Potter who had a go with him. Potter was Black's best friend. They spend all their time together, pulling nasty pranks on mostly Gryffindors.

Remus sighed and turned back to his potion. He refused to give Black an opportunity to tease him. But he wouldn't have peace for very long. As he stirred his potion, which had an awful green color instead of blue, a note landed in front of him. He looked up to confirm that Professor Slughorn wasn't watching him and then looked down at the note.

What happend to you? Fell down the stairs, clumsy?

Remus stared down at the hastly scribbled words. He had heard them before but it still hurt to hear. It had been the full moon two nights ago and he wasn't fully recovered. He had several new scars on his arms and an awful one across his cheek. Remus didn't see himself as good looking, quite the opposite, but today it was even worse.

He swallowed the lump in his throat and pushed the note aside. He wouldn't let that get him down. He needed to focus. Right...the potion is supposed to be blue...he thought and looked down in his book. What could possibly have gone wrong this time?

Before he had time to decide what to do next about his potion, another note landed on his desk.

You forgot the Bulbadox Juice.

This made Remus turn around and stare at Black with a frown. Black met his eyes for a second then turned back to his own work.

"Clumsy," Remus heard him mutter quietly.


Well it's short but I'll make more chapters soon!
