Remus's Lunette(Remus Lupin mate Harry Potter Fanfiction)

First Day

The next morning I woke up early. I was so excited,Today was officialy my first day at Hogwarts. I looked around the room,everyone was still sleeping. Classes start at 8:15,it is currently 6 am. I didn't think the girls would appreaciate me waking them up so that I could have company,so I decided to take a nice long shower,wash my hair and take the time to blow dry my hair. Thankfully I saved up enough money to buy myself a cordless hair dryer last year,because there is nowhere to plug anything in around here. which makes sense since electrical appliances doesn't work here, our bedlamps are powered by magic. I bought a book on using magic to power appliances at Diagon Alley,after I read the electrical appliances section in Hogwarts a History, during the summer,Hermione gave Harry a copy for christmas,but he never read it,so he gave it to me, I learned the appliances spell and enchanted my hair dryer,because there was no way in hell that I was going to walk around with wet hair,in Scotland in Autumn. After I finished drying my hair, I changed into my uniform and brushed out my long waist length black hair. I decided to leave my hair down. After I finished getting ready it was 7 am, so I decided to go down and have an early breakfast, and see if I can find my brother and Ron anywhere. There were a few people at breakfast,unfortunately Harry and Ron were not among them,and neither was Ella,Astoria or Ginny. Hermione was sitting alone at the Griffindor table reading,so I decided to go and join her. "Hi Hermione,mind if I join you?" I asked her. She looked up and smiled when she saw me. "Hi,Lucy,no not at all." she replied enthusiastically. I sat down across from her,grabbed a bowl and dished myself up some oats with butter,sugar and milk,and grabbed a plate filling it with scrambled eggs,bacon,sausages and an omlette. I started eating,everything tasted so good. Hermione and I started talking about classes,so far transfiguration sounds the best,but i'm also really excited for potions, even though everyone i've met says that Professor Snape is a nightmare, I still found the subject fascinating. After about a half hour, the great hall started to fill with students,including my brother and Ron. "Hi Harry,Hi Ron, how was the flying car?I hope you didn't get in too much trouble." I asked them. They smiled and sat down,Harry next to me and Ron next to Hermione. " Hi Lucy, the flying car was pretty cool." Harry answered. "Yeah,until Harry nearly fell out of it." Ron added laughing. Harry just rolled his eyes. I shook my head at them. "You two are idiots ,you know that if for whatever reason you missed the train, you could have just owled the school,and they would have sent someone to get you?" I asked them. They just looked down ashamed. " I told them that last night,they did'nt know." Hermione answered for them. " We got detention for a month,and they're writing to our parents,becausewe were seen by muggles." Ron answered my second question."Well that's not too bad,besides I highly doubt the Dursleys will even open a letter from the school. they are going to spend the year pretending we don't  exist." I reassured Harry. harry just nodded. "Speak for yourself,it was my dad's car I stole,Mum will be furious, but iguess it could have been worse ,we could've been expelled,so i guess that's a bonus." Ron replied. "Oh Lucy congratulations by the way for being sorted into Ravenclaw,sorry i wasn't here to watch you get sorted." Harry told me apologetically. " Thank you Harry,it's fine,no big deal I understand why you could'nt be here." I replied with a smile. After chatting with the trio for a bit Ginny ,Ella ,Astoria and Luna came into the great hall. I waved them over,they came to sit by me. "Hi girls,how are you?" I greeted them."Hi Lucy,we're good thanks." they answered. I then proceeded to introduce them to the trio, well everyone except for Ginny since they already know her. "Guys,these are my friends,Luna Lovegood,she's one of my dorm mates,Astoria Greengrass and Ella Diggory,you guys already know Ginny. "Girls this is my brother Harry and his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger,Ron is also Ginny's brother." I introduced them After a round of Friendly hello's, and polite conversation, we excused ourselves and went to go sit at the Ravenclaw table. I finished my breakfast and kept the girls company while they ate. After breakfast we headed to our first class which was transfiguration. Professor McGonagall Transfigured herself into a cat, which was really cool,after that we just copied notes off the board and she gave us homework,write a two page essay on the history of transfiguration. After transfiguration we had charms, Professor Flitwick mostly just lectured us on the dangers and rules of charms and what it can be used for we also had to levitate a feather in the air,using the spell leviosa. I could already perform all the spells,in the curriculum since I spent two summers memorizing them from Harry's textbooks and then practising them once i got my wand. I was the only one in the class who was able to levitate the feather. I recieved 20 points for Ravenclaw and Flitwicks praise,I was also excused from the homework. After Charms we finally had potions. Upon our arrival in Potions Professor snape read off our names in the registry, we had to raise our hands and say present,so that he can see where we are and mark us present,the other professors did it as well with the first years. Professor Snape just glanced boredly at each of the children whose names he read and marked them present,but when he arrived at my name, the strangest thing happened, he looked at me,but instead of glancing over me boredly like im not even worth his time like with the other children,he stopped dead at my name and stared at me with a mixure of shock,pain,sadness and guilt. It lasted for about 10 seconds before he seemed to pull himself together,and continue with the registry. Afterwards he gave us a speech about how potions isn't for everyone and that he can teach those with the gift how to bottle fame,brew glory and even put a stopper in death,which I found to be very funny and overdramatic. At least i'll never be bored in potions class,since Snape seems like a very entetaining teacher,with his overdramatic speeches and gestures,and he even dresses like an  overgrown bat to go along with the act. I couldn't tell if it was just an act that he put on to engage his students and make the class more interseting and entertaining or if it is his actual personality,if it is I pity him,because he must not have many friends. He also seems sad about something and it also seems he feels guilty about something. perhaps he lost someone he cared for and did wrong by them somehow and never got a chance to make it right,it would explain the bitterness. Judging by the way he looked at me I Must remind him of it somehow,perhaps I resemble the girl,or remind him of her,perhaps he lost his daughter or wife or someone close to him. After his speech he asked the class a few potions questions.  I was the only one it seems who knew the answer, since i was the only one who raised my hand. Professor Snape had no choice but to pick me. I gave all the correct answers since i've practically memorized the textbook, but i didn't quote the textbook word for word, I said it in my own words, the way i understood it. Professor Snape seemed impressed and a mixure of pride and sadness,The person he lost must have been smart as well,I felt bad for him. He praised me and awarded me house points."Very good miss Potter 10 points to Ravenclaw." After that we all had to write the answers down and copy a few other instructions from the board,everyone exept me got a 4 page essay to write about the answers that I gave and the content on the board. After potions class I we had a free period before lunch. I decided to stay behind and talk to professor Snape. After everyone was gone i went up to his desk where he was busy grading papers for another class. "Excuse me professor ,may i ask you something?" I asked. He looked at me with an unreadable expression on his face."Yes miss Potter?" He asked. " Forgive me professor perhaps it is none of my business,but i seem to remind you of something or someone that makes you sad, i wanted to inquire who or what it was and ask if you are alright." I said as kindly and respectfully as i could. He seemed shocked by my question,either because i had the nerve to ask him about it or because i am intuitive enough to have guessed exactly rigtht,perhaps both. He did not address it and to my surprise he actually told me. He said "You are correct miss Potter",then added with a sigh and a sad smile "You remind me of your mother." He said. "you knew my mother?" I asked surprised. " Yes we were childhood friends,we went to school together,we had a falling out during our fifth year, it was my fault, I never made it right with her." He answered. "Oh, im sorry you never got to make things right." I said. "Tell me about her?" I found myself asking. I know practically nothing about my parents,Aunt Petunia won't tell me,and i've never met any of my parents friends or other relatives, I saw them for the first time when harry brought home that little photo album last year,aunt Petunia locked it up with Hrry's trunk,so we didn't have a chance to look through it entirely inthe summer, Harry gave it to me,but i've been to busy to look through it. "Alright." Professor Snape agreed. I spent my entire free period listening to stories about my mother, I only left after he told me to leave to go have lunch,and promised to tell me more about her after classes have ended for the day and i have finished the little homework that I have. After that day it became sort of a tradition,I would go to Professor Snape after classes and we would talk,sometimes I would go hang out with him on weekends when my friends were busy and i had nothing to do, we became very close,he became almost like a father figure to me,something that i've never had.
