James was scared, he didn't want to have to be the one to do this. But he had too. He took a breath and started shaking Sirius gently. "Padfoot, Sirius, come on! You gotta wake up for me mate!" He said still shaking the other boy.  The transformation had been going to plan untill something came over Remus, he had just gone crazy, he almost killed sirius. Luckily he didnt but he did do something that was in James's opinion far worse, and James was left to have to break the news to both of the boys.

"Come on Sirius! wake up!" James said a bit louder shaking the him again, being careful not to hurt him.

Slowly Sirius stirred, groaning and swatting away at James. Everything hurt and he wanted to be asleep again. Finally he blinked up at James with a frown. "What happened?" he asked. He moved to start sitting up but that hurt more than he thought it would and he decided to settle for just lying there. "Am I in the hospital wing?"

James nodded "You've been asleep for 2 days Sirius. I needed to talk to you...To tell you something" James took a deep bre

"Two days?" Sirius asked. He tried thinking back, memories slowly flooding back in. "It was the moon, right?" he asked. "We were out in the forest and.." he frowned. "Something was wrong with Remus. I guess he scratched me up a bit? Is he okay?" Sirius tried sitting up again to see if he could spot Remus. If Remus was already conscious he'd be beating himself up right about now.

James felt awful, it was going to hurt him almost as much as it would hurt Sirius but he had to tell him. "Remus is still uncontious but...but he attacked you, and you...well you thought that he had calmed down enough to transform back, just so you could fix your arm were it got cut. We tried to stop him bit it was to late" James James held Sirius arm out in front of him, a red mark was cut into it. A very distinct mark. James's voice was choked up and he felt Sick. "He...he bit you Sirius" he said swallowing tears and trying to stay strong for Sirius..

Sirius stared at the bite mark, taking a moment for it to sink in. "He bit me," he murmured. They'd always known that it was a risk but none of them had taken it seriously. "So.. I'm going to be like him." His mind was racing now, thinking about all of the different implications this carried. "We can't tell him," he decided finally.

Jamess eyes widened. "Sirius, we HAVE to tell him, he will hate himself but we have to. When full moon comes again we need to be...prepared, we have to work this out! Remus has to know!"

"I can stay in the Shack," Sirius decided. "We'll.. figure it out. But James.. he will never forgive himself for this if he knows," he said seriously.

"But Remus will be in the shack Sirius, how are you going to explain another werewolf just sitting there when he is as well. He will forgive himself, it wasn't his fault, what if he sees it? The bite? What will you do then?"

Sirius hesitated. "Fine. We'll tell him there was another werewolf that night. Say we don't know where it came from but it bit me."

"You really think he'll buy that? That there is another werewolf in Hogwarts, that just so happened to be were we were? Sirius, I'm sure he won't hate himself, for a bit yes but he can help you! You don't want to go through this alone"

Sirius ran his hands over his face. He wasn't ready for this. He saw how badly the moons affected Remus and he didn't want to be going through that as well. "Who knows already?" he asked.

"Only you, me and Pete, I didn't know wheither to tell a teacher. If I do then I'll have to tell them everything" James wrapped his arms around Sirius "I'm so bloody sorry Sirius, so sorry"

Sirius leaned against him. "Pomfrey hasn't figured it out?" he asked. Could he really hide this from everyone, even the teachers? He wanted to but that even Remus had certain teachers who knew. It would be harder to hide for Sirius.
