Remus Lupin Part 1

Summary: Remus has a crush on you

House: Hufflepuff

AUTHOR P.O.V

everyone knew Remus Lupin was one of the sweetest guys there were in Hogwarts, he always helped everyone and was nice to be around, The criteria of classes came to him easily and his grades were good. he only had two things he struggled with, his lycanthropy, and the fact he had a crush on a girl that he didn't know how to approach.

he was getting his quiet time in the common room while the rest of the Marauders were out and pranking Severus Snape once again, well he thought they were at least because one of them suddenly came running into the common room yelling Remus's nickname "Moony!" he screamed getting the attention of every student in the room, Remus sighed and just wanted his book to suck him in so he could hide from the embarrassment. 

James plopped down on the seat next to him on the couch and grinned at his friend, Remus shut his book and put it down on the coffee table in front of them "What's wrong James?" he asked him but James just kept grinning which kind of freaked Remus out "I have done you a huge favor" the pride that he had was basically overflowing, Remus stared at him blankly "and what would that be?" he asked James.

"I asked Riley to help you out with getting closer to (Y/N)!" he exclaimed like it was a good thing. Remus froze before saying "You did what?" he hissed at him. James smiled and shrugged his shoulders as he leaned back against the couch, completely relaxed "You don't need to thank me" Remus punched his shoulder "I wasn't going to thank you, why would you do that?"

"you've been pining over (Y/N) since second year, we're in fifth now Moony, it's time you do something about it" Remus sighed and let his head fall in his hands while groaning "I haven't done anything about it because she doesn't like me back. I'm not her type" he went off of the two guys (Y/N) had dated in the past three years at Hogwarts, both relationships were short-lived but both guys were blond, were good at quidditch, and both were in Ravenclaw.

James rested his hand on Remus's shoulder "That's why I talked to Riley, she's pretty scary for a Hufflepuff by the way. She told me (Y/N) indeed likes guys who play sports" he seemed to wreck his brains for the answers the fourth year Hufflepuff had given him "right! she also told me she likes guys who dress well, and guys that take good care of themselves" Remus was on the verge of laughing "then you should ask her out, she's basically describing you. you would have more chance with her than with Lily" James's jaw dropped and he hit Remus across the back of his head, Remus hissed in pain and held the back of his head "Lily loves me, she just doesn't know it yet"

"even though I'm still not fond of you talking with her best friend about me liking her and asking her what her type is...thank you" James shot him a small smile and patted his back before standing up. Remus didn't even ask where he was going, he could already spot the redhead walking past them and to the stairs going to her dorm, he rolled his eyes, Prongs would never give up.

(Y/N)'s P.O.V

I walked around the quidditch pitch to go up to the stands since I was going to watch the tryouts for the Hufflepuffs. i turned the corner and bumped into someone. to my luck, I fell down onto the ground. the person I bumped into gasped "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you" The voice sounded oddly familiar but I was still very much surprised when I saw Remus Lupin standing in front of me in Gryffindor Quidditch gear. my brows furrowed, since when did he play?

Remus helped me up and took a step back from me "I didn't know you played" I told him as we began walking towards the stands, Gryffindor must have already finished their tryouts, Remus shrugged "I didn't but I wanted to try it out, do something different" "it's good to try different things...do you think you'll make the team" Remus sighed as he sat down on the bench next to me.

"so why are you not trying out for the team?" he asked me and I shrugged, I liked quidditch a lot and I did it back home on our homemade pitch but "I like playing it for fun and I know how serious some people can get and I don't want to put up with that" Remus started to nod ï get that, Sirius and James are always complaining about the other to me when they lose a match, they're like a married couple sometimes" he rambled on and a loud laugh echoed through the air, my laugh. 

"Riley's like that too sometimes" We didn't say anything else to each other and just watched the tryouts for Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw that followed after that, the silence surrounding us was comfortable and there wasn't a need to break it like any other time this happened with anyone.

Remus, I hadn't been able to get him out of my head for the past few weeks, he was cute and handsome, he had always been but something had put me off for the last few weeks after we spoke at the quidditch pitch.

he was nice and all of that, he even gave me chocolate that he bought at Hogsmeade last weekend, and from what I understood that was a big deal, I knew it was a big deal since Sirius and James made it their job to tell me right after it happened and Remus had left. 

i noticed one thing though, Remus had changed. he gelled his hair more often now, only not doing it when he was late for class, and he didn't wear his wool sweaters or the cardigans I knew his family had made for him, instead he just wore his uniform every day. 

it weirded me out, to be honest, I didn't like this version of him and I didn't understand why he would change himself in such a way in a few week's time. but I wanted to find out.
