Two weeks had gone by, The Marauders had not once left the Infirmary unless it were to shower, of course professors said that their behavior was unacceptable but had no choice but to give them homeworks.
They had taken turns in staying with Remus. Whenever she isn't busy with class, Aurora would visit Remus and sit beside his bed, telling him about the lessons he missed and writing his notes for him while he rests.
Aurora had heard that Remus had finally got out of the Infirmary and can return to classes today. Transfiguration was somehow one of Aurora's favorite classes. She found it fun to learn how to use nonverbal spells, turn cauldron cakes into cabbages. Her Gryffindor robes was wrinkled, held in her arms as she tied her necktie. Walking out of the girls' lavatory.
The girls' lavatory was connected to the girls' dormitories. Aurora rushed to her dorm room to grab her books and bag, where as usual, her dormmates had already left. Olivia Lowe and Melissa Reagan were Gryffindor's gossip girls. That's why Aurora didn't like staying in her dorm room. She would rather sleep in the common room than her dorm.
Once Aurora got there. She made her way down the stairs, onto the common room — where the Marauders were waiting for her arrival. When she got to the common room, Sirius sighed loudly. Caught attention from others, the girl flinched at the sudden head turns.
"There she is!" exclaimed Peter — again stating the obvious. His loud voice beamed, even pointing to Aurora whose eyes immediately went wide, she ran to the door and never looked back. What was he thinking pointing to her like that? Now people are gonna look at her.
Not that she was anti-social. But Aurora was just used to spending her days, weeks, months and years going unnoticed — and all of a sudden. Because of four boys? She gets dragged into the 'known' society? Hell no.
The stairs moved. Aurora even almost tripped in attempt to run from the boys. This time — her way twisted, instead of running to the Great Hall for breakfast. She dragged her feet to walk to the library instead. But when she realized that the more she avoids the boys. The more they think she is capable of letting out their secret.
And Aurora being Aurora, couldn't have that. She couldn't have Remus overthinking for his safety. With a heavy sigh, Aurora turned her heels and silently walked back to the Great Hall. Halfway through the walk, she was met with four boys, all out of breath. Their hands on their knees. Immediately, their faces brightened when they saw her.
"Oh there you are!"
"That was a good run, aye?"
"Yea, it was. I almost fell on my feet, Pads!"
Remus rolled his eyes. Sometimes, his friends could really be dramatic. He didn't know why they weren't at the theaters acting their hearts out. He was the only one properly standing this time. Although Madame Pomfrey advised to not immediately tire himself — he wouldn't be able to keep up with his friends who ran to find Aurora if he didn't run himself.
