Mia POV

I was walking through the halls with Remus, now one of my best friends. We were heading to the library to complete an essay about greek gods. Me and Remus got really close since I found out about his... furry problem...

Flashback

I headed towards the forbidden forest to IM Piper, to talk a bit before she went on a vacation with my brother. I created a rainbow and sat down on a rock, watching an image of Piper appear. "Hey Pipes!" I said, excited to talk with one of my besties from camp. She jumped in fright before seeing me. "Mia! You have no idea how much I- everyone has missed you! It's just not the same without you!" We chatted a bit before she headed off, with the intention of packing her bags. I said goodbye and stood up, not ready to head back yet. I decided to go for a walk in the forest to clear my head from my trailing thoughts. Sirius, Matt,... I kept walking until I heard howling. I looked up to the night sky. A full moon. A werewolf. Suddenly it all clicked into place. The marauders all disappearing on the full moon, coming back all battered and bruised. Remus was a werewolf. I ran towards the howl until I was in a clearing. Then I saw them. A stag, a dog, a rat and.. a werewolf. The dog saw me and whined, running over to me in a protective fashion. I looked at it and saw Sirius's grey eyes. "Sirius... that's Remus, isn't it?" He nodded slowly. I looked up and saw the werewolf snarling at me, teeth bared. I took a deep breath and walked over, ignoring the whining and stamping of hooves. He backed away, snarling. I reached my hand out and placed it on his muzzle. His glowing yellow eyes transformed back to their usual chocolate brown ones. His body started cracking and he howled with pain, until.. there sat Remus, sobbing. "I'm a monster, I know! You don't want to talk to me now right?" I looked at the poor boy, my heart breaking. I knelt down and hugged him. He stiffened but slowly relaxed. "I would never think that.." I looked up to see the rest of the Marauders morphed back into their human selves. James and Peter were smiling whereas Sirius was seemingly happy but his eyes shone with jealousy. I wonder why... I stood up. "So you guys are Animagus?" They nodded, grins on their faces. I smiled, now I'm going to be pulled into their saga...

End of flashback

We got to the library and found a table, sitting down and taking out our parchment. I started writing the story of the gods and by the time I was done, I had largely exceeded the needed amount of information. I looked at Remus who had only just started writing. I stood up and told him I was just going to looked at the books a bit. I scrolled through the books until I came across one that the letters didn't jumble up. I pulled It out from the shelf and looked at it, blowing the dust off. I read it. "Greek and Roman gods" I raised my eyebrows in surprise. I needed to read this in case valuable information is in here. I headed back to the table, telling Remus I had to go. I booked the book out and headed towards my dorm, nose buried in my book. I turned a corner and rammed straight into someone. "Déjà vu much?" He said. I looked up and groaned. Even though James and Remus were my best friends now, I couldn't say the same for Sirius. I looked at him, rolling my eyes. He smirked and ruffled my hair, earning another eye roll. "Party tonight In the Room of Requirement." He said, smirking, "Wear something nice cause Disco!" He shouted, earning a few looks. I coughed awkwardly and he laughed nervously. "Sooo, imma go to the kitchens now.." he said going and ramming into a wall, turning towards me smiling, before walking off. "Kitchens the other way!" I shouted to him. He turned around and walked past me, "I knew that!" I chucked slightly before heading towards the common room. And, before you ask, I asked Hecate to wipe the girls memory about the accident a few months ago. I walked up to the fat lady, said the code and walked to the girls dormitories. I opened the door, nose in my book. So far, nothing too interesting. I looked up from my book to see Marlene dressing up for the party. I laughed, gaining her attention. "You know the party isn't for another 3 hours, right?" She looked at me like I was mad. "Exactly! We need to hurry! The other girls are in the bathroom so you should start getting ready!" I groaned and headed towards my closet, looking through my clothes. I grabbed an outfit, my hair curlers, makeup bag. As I was about to close my closet, I saw another picture of me, Percy, Annabeth, Matt, and the rest of the gang. I picked it up and placed it on my bedside table. I went to the bathroom, had a quick shower and put my clothes on. Then I did my makeup then hair. I looked in the mirror. My outfit consists of white jeans and a cold shoulder top with some sandals. My makeup was a smoky eyes and maroon lips. And finally my hair was in a waterfall style. I checked the time. 8:00 pm. 1 hour till the party. I groaned and flopped on my bed, carefully to avoid staining it with makeup. I watched as the other girls got ready, chatting. First one to finish was Lily, who then sat on my bed. "So," I said, "gonna talk to James?" She blushed. A few months ago, Severus Snape, a Slytherin, and also one of Lily best friends, insulted her while she was trying to help him. He called her a Mudblood, which is a terrible word for a muggle born. J-J flew into the rescue by punching Snape square in the face. Since then, Lily's feelings towards J-J have grown till the point where she doesn't call him an insolent toe-rag and blushes at his lame pickup lines. "Maybe.. What about you and Sirius?" Now it was my turn to blush. "No idea what you're talking about..." She grinned. "Mar, Alice, Mary! Come here!" A few seconds later the three girls were piled on my bed. "What should Mia be doing tonight?" She asked them, a smirk playing on her red lips. "Ooh! I know! Going out with Sirius!" Mar shouted, laughing. I bet a million drachmas I was a tomato right now. The girls continued to tease me until the Queen (if you don't like swearing please do excuse this bit, in this book there may be the odd swear word, but nothing too bad, only female dog) Bitch herself walked out of the bathroom, with the skimpiest outfit on laddened with makeup. She strutted over, smiling. I stifled a laugh. She had a bright pink lipstick stain on her tooth. "What are you laughing at, Freak?" I stopped laughing immediately and stood up. She laughed nervously and looked around the room. Her smile returned as she looked at something next to me. I turned my head and looked at the picture I had just placed. She walked over to it and gingerly picked it up, examining it. I glared at her, anger coursing through my veins. I didn't know why I was so angry. The girls on the bed looked at me nervously. Lucy a.k.a Queen Bitch started fawning over the boys in the picture. "Aww this guy is soo hot!! What's his name?" She turned the picture towards me and her finger was on Aquagirl. "Percy's taken Qu- Lucy.. By the blonde girl on the side, Annabeth.." Why did I just say that!!! She scoffed. "She looks like a usual dumb blonde! I bet Perry would leave her without a second glance if he saw me!" She said, twirling her fake blonde hair. I growled and lunged at her. She screamed and fell back. "Don't you dare call Annie a dumb blonde! She is the most intelligent girl I know! And don't you even try to break Percabeth! Even if you did, Percy and Annabeth have been through so much together and-" I was cut off by the girls pulling me off Queen-B. I let them drag me to my bed. Lucy stood up, dramatically coughing. I rolled my eyes in exasperation. She finished her fit and proceeded to explain how she was only kidding. I scoffed and checked the time. 8:57 pm. We stood up, leaving the Queen behind and sneaked to the Room of Requirement. I could hear the girls giggling behind me. I stifled one myself. We reached the wall and I proceeded to doing the ritual. The double doors appeared and we smiled to each other before Lily pushed the doors open. We walked in, earning a few wolf whistles here and there. I laughed and suddenly felt like crying. That argument with Lucy had reminded me of camp, making me miss my family. I ignored the sinking feeling in my stomach and plastered a smile on, heading for the crowd. I walked through it, earning compliments and invited to dancing. I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and smiled at the scarred sandy haired teen. "Hey Remus!" He looked nervous. "Hey Mia can I talk to you?" I smiled. "Of course you can! Whatsup?" He gulped. "I've always liked you, and not because of your looks, but because we both love books, and greek and roman myths and stuff..." I knew where this was going. "So I was wondering if you would maybe like to, I don't really know... Maybe go on the next Hogsmeade trip with me?" I saw the hope in his eyes when he asked. I bit my lip. His face fell. "Don't worry.. I get it..." He started to walk away but I held his arm. He looked at me surprised. I threw my arms around him, squeezing the life out of him. I let go after a few minutes. "Don't take it personally... I'm not a big fan of relationships.." He smiled and nodded. I thought for a second. "Hey Remmy! Go talk to Mary, she looks awfully lonely over there." He laughed and walked over, and I watched for a few minutes as they conversed shyly. I smiled softly. I walked over to the refreshments and looked at the drinks, raising my eyebrows. There was only alcohol. I was about to take some firewhiskey when I felt a tap my shoulder. I turned around and saw.. the Queen-B herself, her minions trailing behind. She had a large glass of the fiery drink in her hand as she stepped towards me. "I didn't appreciate the way you spoke to me before, Freak." I smiled bitterly. "Well deal with it!" I turned back to pouring my drink. I heard a scream of exasperation and clicking of heels as she stomped off. I chuckled and grabbed my drink, drinking it in one go. I laughed and drank another and another, till the room was spinning. I went to the dance floor and headed over to Lily, who was giggling profusely. She saw me and started giggling even more. We giggled together dancing. Then J-J came and ushered her away which made me pout. "J-J!! You're so mean!!!" I hiccuped, giggling. Someone held me from behind. I screamed and kicked. "Calm down Mia, it's just me.." I looked to the side and saw shaggy black hair and grey eyes. I hiccuped again, relaxing slightly in his strong grip. "Siwiussss... what are you doing?" I giggled again making him chuckle. "Taking you away from the alcohol.." I turned towards him, leaning in, squinting my eyes. "Your eyes are like Annabeths!" He smiled, "who's Annabeth?" He asked sitting me down on one of the seats. "Well...."

Switching POV to Sirius so you can see how drunk she really is...

"She's my one of my bessstttt fwiends at camppp.." She answered squinting. I smiled, she was soo drunk. "Really?" She nodded and hiccuped again. I sighed. "We should probably get you to bed." I stated, smiling at her. She pouted. "You're just like Matt! So overprotecting!" She said, waving her hands in the air. I frowned. Who was this Matt guy? I voiced my thoughts, waiting to hear her answer. "Mattttt was my boyfriendddd at campppp..." I frowned again. "Where is he now then?" Her eyes watered up. "He's dead! He betrayed me and our friends! Almost killed us all!" I widened my eyes, watching the disoriented girl sob into her hands. I pulled her into my chest, waiting for her to calm down. When she finally did, her eyes were puffy and her makeup was running. She sniffed and then hiccuped. I led her towards the doors, deciding to take her back to her dormitory. James, who was sober and dealing with a giggling Lily who was pinching his cheeks, raised an eyebrow at Mia who was singing "let it go" from Frozen now. I shrugged my shoulders, indicating that I was taking her back to her room. He nodded and turned back towards Lily, who was now playing peek-aboo with herself. I opened the large doors of the Room of Requirement and looked around. No sign of Filch or his new kitten, Mrs Norris. I dragged Mia to the tower and prodded the fat Lady, who begrudgingly woke up, swinging open once I told her the password. I was about to take Mia up the stairs to her room and then remembered that boys can't go up there. I sighed looking around. I finally decided to put her on the sofas around the fire. I led her over and layed the now sleeping girl onto the larger couch. I was about to head up to my room but felt a pull on my cloak. I turned around. Mia was lying there, clutching my cloak to her chest. I smiled fondly of the pretty girl. She groaned and turned over, pulling me closer to her. I lifted her up and layed down on the couch, Mia on top of me, her face nuzzled into the crook of my neck. I kissed her cheek and she smiled softly, eyes still closed. I stared at the ceiling for awhile, until finally sleep overtook me. Not before hearing Mia whisper something..

"Please don't leave me ever again..."
