"have you seen the way marina looks at the fantasy books she reads?" remus was asking as he paced around the dormitory. "she looks at them with so much passion that you wanted to be nothing but the character she had so insanely fallen in love with."
james groaned. "moony, will you shut up about marina?" he asked. "like you're any better with lily." peter, who was doing his herbology homework at the desk, snapped. "i don't talk about her like we are in some romantic book!" james said defensively, sitting up from his bed and tossing his duvet aside.
"i'm just simply saying what i'm feeling, because if i don't i might pour them all out to her and i can't do that. i really can't." remus explained. sirius rolled his eyes and stood up from the ground where he was writing a letter. "mate, i don't think it would be a bad thing if she found out how you felt." he stated. remus looked at him, flabbergasted.
"yes it would! i don't know how she feels about me. i don't even know if she likes me as a friend right now." remus argued. the boys in the dormitory groaned. "dude! she's in love with you!" james practically shouted.
"not this again," remus muttered. "i get the self worry, moony, i really do. but it's useless! pointless!" james snapped. he walked over to where remus was standing and put his hands on his shoulders. "she likes you." he said.
remus was about to argue back when they heard a scratching at the window. the four boys looked over and saw an owl with a letter in it's hand. "who's owl is that?" james asked as peter got up and opened the window, letting the owl in.
"no idea, but it's for remus." peter said, grabbing the letter and handing it to remus. peter petted the owl before it flew away. "it's not going to the owlery. it must be from someone not at the school." peter informed them as he watched the owl. it seemed to hit everyone at that moment.
"marina." they said, looking at remus, who just stared down at the letter. "open it! open it!' james said excitedly. remus ripped open the letter and unfolded it, reading it in a matter of seconds as the other three boys scrambled over to him.
"she knows?" james asked. "she knows what?" sirius mumbled. remus looked up at them, a horrified expression on his face. "what if she knows what i am?" he asked, his voice quavering.
"no, no." james mumbled, shaking his head furiously. "there is no way! she's too oblivious for that."
remus tossed the letter onto the desk. does marina know? what would she think of him now? would she tell everyone?
"maybe she knows your head over heels for her?" sirius suggested. "that's it!" remus said, pointing at him. "i told amelia bones i fancied her!" he said. "why on earth would you do that?" james asked. remus shook his head, ignoring him.
"she must have told her!" he concluded. "well, that would be hell of a lot better than her knowing about your litter furry problem." sirius sighed. james snorted loudly.
