Hogwarts RPG Name: Secret Snape First Year | You can quote, disagree with, glorify or vilify me But about the only thing you can't do is ignore me I couldn't sleep. Every time I fell asleep, I had nightmares about that night, when took the scars. I stared into the fire, wishing, wanting them to go away. That night scared me, physically and mentally. That morning, I boarded the train, and I sat in the carriage, curled up on my self. My scars still hurt at times, but I was getting used to the pain. I looked to see a bunch of kids.
'It's rude to point.' I said and a small boy hurried off, followed by everyone else.
I sighed, feeling alone.
'Hey.' said a voice.
I looked to see Fred.
'Oh, hey.' I said, looking back out the window.
'I got you something. I think you missed the Witch with the trolly.' said Fred sitting next to me and pulling a chocolate bar out his pocket.
I smiled and accepted it.
'Thanks.' I said, nibbling the edge.
'You'll be okay. You know Remus didn't mean to do it.' said Fred, putting his arm round me.
'Yeah.' I said, feeling better.
'Wasn't there anything they could do about your scars?' asked Fred gently.
'Nahh, but I don't regard them as Scars. I just say, they're something to be proud of.' I said, a smile on my face.
Fred gave a smile.
'It's good to see you Smile.' he said.
'Nice to see you smile.' I said, as the train pulled into the station.
I got off, ignoring my Aunt. I couldn't see Remus anywhere. I started to Panic. What is he never showed up? What if I had to go back to the Malfoy's? Bugger that, I would rather sleep on the streets.
'Oh Where is he?' I whispered.
I went and sat on a bench, my trunk next to me, praying he would turn up.
'Where are you Remus?' I whispered.
'He's not turned up?' asked a voice.
'Oh No, not now Draco, I can't take any comments.' I said, head in hands.
Draco sat next to me, and instead of nasty words, his words were gentle, and almost caring.
'Don't worry, I'm sure he'll turn up.' said Draco softly.
'I hope so.' I said.
'Hey, if not, I'm sure Fred will take you in.' said Draco.
'Why hasn't Remus turned up? Is he ashamed, of what he did? I told him I didn't care, he couldn't stop himself as a were-wolf.' I said, my voice wobbling, my eyes becoming blurry.
'Hey hey, It'll be alright.' said Draco, putting his arm round me.
'Draco mate, have you hit your head?' I asked.
'No why?' said Draco.
'Because you're being so nice. Ever thought of trying it more often?' I replied.
'Hey, we're family. Even if we hate each other sometimes.' said Draco, pulling a tissue out and wiping my eyes.
'Yeah, you got a point there.' I said, a small smile on my face. I felt for Baylee. She had a point. Where was Remus?
'Baylee? You alright?' I asked, walking over.
She looked up.
'I'm fine.' she said, wiping a tear away.
I looked round, for Remus, or even Sirius, one of them.
'Has he not come?' asked Fred coming up.
'No, and I don't understand. Where is he?' I asked.
'Could be anywhere.' said Fred.
'Remus promised he'd always be here for her. So, where is he?' I repeated.
'I'd like to know.' said Fred.
He looked back at Baylee.
'I hate seeing her like this.' he said quietly.
'You really care about her, don't you?' I asked.
Fred was silent for a moment.
'Yeah, I do.' he said finally. 'You could even say, I love her.'
'She likes you as well.' I said.
Fred looked at me.
'She always brings you up. Fred this, Fred that. I surprised she hasn't got tired of talking to you.' I said, a smile.
'Just the Weasley charm.' said Fred with his grin.
'I will have to say this. You hurt my sister, in anyway, and I will hurt you.' I said.
'I would never dream, of hurting her, take my word for it Rylee. said Fred.
