A/N-
So, because nothing else really happens in the time Charlotte is at home (apart from her bitchy parents), i'm time skipping to the end of the time bc I can and you lot have to deal with it now <3

"CRUCIO! CRUCIO! You filthy girl!" Walburga had yelled, again.
That's mostly what Charlotte had heard in the past week. She was already packed up and ready to leave to go back to Hogwarts.
Poor Lottie was a crying mess on the floor before Walburga yanked her up by her arm forcefully. "Get a grip. Now, go make yourself presentable."
The girl scrambled upstairs faster than you could say 'quidditch' and immediately and accidentally saw herself in the mirror.
She has lost weight, drastically, and her appetite altogether at some points. Her eye bags were more purple and in dire need of concealer. That's what Charlotte thought anyway.
Her makeup bag was whipped out and concealer was heavily-handedly applied all over to conceal and not see the pain.
An hour later, she was ready.
Charlotte carted the her trunk down the stairs and got ready with for her parents to apparate.
"CRUC-"
"Orion, no! She's just got ready, you idiot. You know you can't Crucio her when she's ready like this. It'll be too obvious when we get to the train station." Her mother complained.
"You're right love." Orion groaned, grabbing his daughter's hand and her trunk, as Walburga grabbed the other hand.
———
They apparated to the platform as Walburga roughly fixed her daughter's hair and smoothed out Lottie's uniform.
"Now, go. Don't go meet your blood-traitor friends!"
Lottie knew that her friends had traveled in the train just to be with her on the train ride back, and smiled at the thought.
She put her trunk away and ran down to the infamous Marauder's compartment and swung open the door.
"Guess who's back!" She yelled in a sing-song voice, waving her arms around happily.
James and Peter were in the midst playing a round of a muggle game called 'UNO' but immediately stopped playing when their missing Marauder came in the compartment.
"Lycan!" They all yelled at the same time. Sirius immediately jumped up to hug her, immediately noticing how drastically slim she was.
James and Peter hugged her next, not noticing anything and then it was Remus.
"Saving the best for last I see." Remus remarked.
"Oh, shut it Rem." Charlotte said, jumping up to press a small kiss on his cheek before burrowing her face in his chest.
Remus' arms wrapped around the girl's waist naturally before his face froze.
She had never been this thin before. What happened?
The pair reluctantly let go of each other as Lottie went to sit down next to him, Rem's arm snaking around her torso.
"Merlin's tits! What happened to your face?"
Fuck.
