Scorpius Pov
'So, back with McKinnon?'

Things had been pretty tense between him and Remus after his kiss with Charlotte.
Remus had finally agreed that he had slipped and it was just for the sake of new years..

But Scorpius knew it was more than that.

'Yeah.' Sirius said.
'What changed?'
'Well, we both got ended up at her new year's party's said James.

'And James landed a girl in his bed.'

'Um.. No, I didn't.I left the room before anything happened-'

'James.' Sirius sighed. 'Evans is not going to happen. Just .. leave it.'

'Why wouldn't it- god, you are the worst friend of eternity, black.'
Sirius shook his head.
'The things which sound harsh and cruel are real. The thinks which sound good and you want to be real are too good to be real..'

'Easy for you. You got Marlene.'
Sirius sighed. 'Just leave her. It's not going to happen.'

James huffed then left the room without glancing back.

Scorpius Pov

He was in the common room alone with.. Peter.
The others were no where to be seen.

'So um Peter.. what's up?'
'Nothing' he muttered.

'I never really have talked with you personally-'
'Yeah, you have ignored me like the others. I can see that.'

This was awkward.
'Uh sorry..? Want to talk about something?'

'Bacon?'
'Anything other than bacon, please.'
'Socks?'

Scorpius stared at him.
'Who, just who talks about socks?'
Peter sighed. 'I don't know, then. Anything other than the number of chicks you banged.'

'Wha- Fine. Want to play wizard socker?'
'Huh?'
'No.. that's not a good enough name. How about.. The three socketeers?'

'Nah'
'We can decide the name later. Its just a sock game I came up with.'

'You come up with sock games? How weird is that?'

'Hey, I am doing this for you. Attitude, man.'
'Fine. What's the prize?'
'What prize?'
'There's gotta be something to the winner. Or what's the point?'

'Fine. The prize is.. the opponent's plate of bacon next morning.'
'Count me in.'

Scorpius was staring at the top of his bunk. Nobody was in the dorm except him.
Pettigrew was in the common room and the others were nowhere to be seen...

And just as he was about to sleep, he was woken by a howl.. a wolfish howl which he had never heard before.

He bolted upright on the bed.
He thought if he was imagining things.. must have been hallucinating.. Yeah, he was just tired-

And then he heard the howl again.
He opened the window.

The moonlight blinded his eyes and it took him a second to adjust his eyes.

He looked up. It was a full moon.
Things started to click..

Full moon.. Marauders Era.. Howl.. He had heard stories of a werewolf professor his father had.. who had died during the second wizarding war...

James, Sirius, Remus were missing..
Could one of them be a werewolf?
Last full moon came rushing back to him.
They had lied to him about going to remus's house or something..

Black was about to end in Askaban.. and Potter was about to be killed by voldemort..

Which meant..
Remus Lupin was a werewolf..

'Holy Crap' he muttered.
No.. he couldn't be scared of Remus.. this was Remus.. his bro..

A brorewolf as he would say.
Damn it, why did he have to think so much.. things were nice the way they were..

But he had to come back into reality.. all the relationships he had had here could have completely changed the future..

And for the first time a dark realisation sinked in.. All these people would probably die in the first or second world war..

Scorpius felt a pang in his heart.
Was he feeling sad for them?

He had always been an emotionless bastard but could things change..?
