Remus continued running

It was quite like when he was running away from that orphanage,

Except, he wasn't in pain while doing so,

He wasn't sure where he was running, or how long, but he suddenly got to a familiar looking place, based on the peaceful atmosphere, and the array of houses only the side, Remus recognized this place as Godric's Hollow, although how he got here, he had no idea,

He paused in the middle of the path, my breaths coming out sharp and quick,

Then, all the pain came washing back,

e collapsed on the ground, his knees hitting the hard, concrete path, causing even more pain to rattle through his body, every time he breathed it was like a knife was being stabbed into his stomach, his limbs felt numb and mouth dry, his head felt heavy, like someone had attached a weight to his head, he fell on the path, the concrete sending a chill through his cheek, he felt like all the energy was slowly getting drained from him body, everywhere hurt, every time he moved a jolt of pain would shoot up him, he could feel the dry blood caked on his face.

Then, his eyes grew tired, and he fell asleep.

"What are you doing here?" Remus heard a familiar voice pipe up,

Remus's eyes flew open,

His vision was still groggy and he tried to sit up,

Only for a sharp pain to piece through his ribs that sent him lying back down on the...couch?

Why was he on a couch-

His vision fully cleared and he could see his surroundings.

He was in a house,

Like, a really nice house,

Freshly painted red walls, and a high ceiling, the entire room was spotless, there was a window to the side, open and blowing small gusts of wind into the living room, an unlit fireplace stood before Remus,

He looked down at the poofy, red couch, it was spotless, not an inch of dirt on it.

That was probably until Remus somehow got onto this couch, now, there were flakes of dirt sprinkled along the couch, and some small leaves and twigs too,

Then, someone's face got shoved into his,

"Who are you?"

"Argh," Remus muttered and he slowly sat up on the couch, now that he started moving, he wasn't in as much pain as yesterday, like sure, his ribs still ached, his limbs still felt limp and flashes of pain went through him when he moved a muscle, but, it was bearable, after all, he'd felt much worse,

Remus looked at the boy, he almost jumped in the couch,

The boy was the James kid,

The kid with the Nimbus 1001,

His hair was just as messy as ever, although Remus couldn't really speak on that as his hair was in greasy clumps of brown hair, he still had the same glasses and was wearing some sort of cheap looking Chudley Cannons pyjamas, but nothing really changed that much about him,

James's eyebrows creased,

"Why are you here?"

"I-I don't know," Remus stammered, James eyebrows still remained in that V shape, his hazel eyes scanning Remus up and down, after about a minute of awkward silence between them, James eyebrows them raised in surprise, his eyes wide,
