Remus was constantly fighting the wolf within himself. A subtle voice in the back
of his head that crept up every now and then demanded that he take her, kiss her, pin her
up against a wall and ravish every part of her. It was that same wolf that would peek out
from time to time and snap at her bitterly when she would say or do something he did not
like too close to the moon. He was in constant worry that he was on the verge of
dramatically screwing things up with her.
So he understood what Sirius's concerns were and promised his friend that he would
keep his secret.
The secret of Sirius's virginity—or sudden lack thereof—did not last long despite
Remus's efforts. Once the final line had been crossed, Sirius threw caution to the wind as
he buried his personal issues—and himself—inside any girl that would have him.
When Mia had found out, she had scolded him profusely about being disrespectful
of himself and others.
Sirius had then tried to crawl into her lap to have her pet his head—something that
was incredibly funny now that the Marauders knew what form Sirius would take as an
Animagus—but Mia had shoved him off of her, much to Remus's amusement.
They were all quickly growing up, and Sirius was trailing behind.
"What?" Remus blinked, brought back to the Forbidden Forest and his three
friends.
James cleared his throat. "I said, you would know better what to buy Mia
than I would."
"You still haven't got her gift? You're the worst boyfriend ever." Sirius laughed as
he began using his massive paws to dig in the ground, a sight that actually caused Remus
to laugh out loud.
"I meant to, but the last Hogsmeade trip was cancelled because of how The Magic
Neep was attacked."
It had not been widely publicised, but the morning after the attack on the
greengrocer's shop, Dumbledore had not been at breakfast. Rumours circulated around the
school that the Muggle-born who owned the shop had been assaulted by wizards in dark
cloaks and masks.
