A rose hiding thorns

Do you know how it feels to be pushed away? Looked down on? By your family? By your "Friends". Well, I do and My name is Willow Lupin I live in my brother's shadow and I'm sick of it. Here is my story...

{Morning}

"Willow, Darling time to get up we must get you and Remus to the Train!" My mother says as she wakes me up. I get up not wanting the pain it brings me to get out of bed when I am warm and comfortable. As I walk to the bathroom to shower and find a newfound excitement to go back to school this year I don't have the stress of O.W.L.S this year. Finally, out of the shower, I started to rush myself I threw a pair of muggle-tight jeans and a blue cropped shirt on. Waving my wand I did my hair and makeup quickly. Then I put my shoes on and grabbed my books and trunk and I was out the door.

"Morning Sis," Remus says while looking at me smiling

"Good morning Remus," I say back as I shoved him playfully

"Let's go you too we have to hurry," Father says as we grab his hands to apparate to the train station

{At the train station}

We waved goodbye to our parents and ran to get on the train. We handed our laugage over for it to be loaded I kept my snake with me and my charms book. Remus and I stepped on the train and went to find our friends. Well, his friends. We looked for what seemed like forever then we finally found them.

"Hey, twins!" Sirius says while wrapping his arms around my brother and giving him a hug

"Hello, Sirius," I say sitting next to the window

"How was your summer Moony?" James asked

"It was alright nothing happened very boring," Remus says while biting into a chocolate frog

I giggle as Stella wraps around my hand she's in a playful mood.

"Bloody Hell! Why do you have a snake?" Peter shouted

"She won't bite! Stella is a nice snake." I shout back to Peter

Remus, James, and Sirius all laugh at Peter's fear of the snake. Sirius wiped fake tears from his eyes "Ah Wormtail buddy do you always have to be a pansy?" Sirius asked laughing his ass off

I look at my watch "Shit" I say

"Remus we have to go for the prefect meeting Let's go," I say to my twin

He looked up at me and nodded. Lily followed they both were Gryffindor prefects. I wonder who will be the other Prefect for Ravenclaw? I questioned in my head. We get to the Prefect's compartment.

"Alright, since everyone is here let's get started." One of the head boys says

"Gryfinndor Prefects are Lupin and Evans, Slytherin Prefects are Lovegood and Snape, Hufflepuff Prefects are Kelly and Ginger, and Ravenclaw Prefects are Lupin and Campbell." The head boy spat

I look over at Ethan Campbell and nod as a form of greeting. I've known him since first year but never spoke to him but now that we are Prefects together that means we have to talk.

"Each one of you will get a partner of another house to work with." The head girl says while making us pull names from a hat

"Don't complain because we don't care. You will get your hall schedules tonight at dinner" They say and leave us to enjoy the compartment I had gotten Pandora Lovegood as my partner for watches she is a blonde witch with gorgeous blue eyes and pale skin. Remus had gotten Kelly one of the Hufflepuff Prefects and he seemed content but Evans looked uncomfortable. Evans had gotten Snape they were best friends in the first and second years but he called her the M slur and she broke the friendship off. "I think I'm going to get something from the trolly does anyone want anything?" I ask the group taking orders. I found the witch pulling the trolly around.
