8: Hogsmeade

{-2nd OCTOBER 1975-}

I watched from my seat on the fountain as everyone began walking off. James, Sirius and Peter waved sadly as they walked away.

They were all going to Hogsmeade, but because I'm an idiot, I forgot to have my dad sign for me to go. I'd sent Parker back home so he could sign it for next time.

To be honest, I wasn't really fussed about going to Hogsmeade. It'd been raining all week - pretty much standard - and I finally had some time on my own.

I was walking back up to my common room when I noticed someone sulking on a Defense staircase.

"Y/n? What's wrong?" I didn't hesitate to sit down beside her.

She turned her head to the side. "I didn't get permission for Hogsmeade. I really wanted to go."

"Can't you send an owl? Ask your dad to sign it?"

"He's afraid of owls. He offered to post it or telephone, but obviously it's a magic school, not a normal school." She exhaled. "I shouldn't sulk about it though. It's just that Narcissa Black kept teasing me about it, called me a... mudblood." She grumbled the last word.

"But you're not!"

"Well those snotty pure-bloods haven't figured that out yet. Not Sirius or Regulus though! Just Malfoy and Rosier and all them lot."

I frowned, before an idea came to me. I jumped up, holding my hand out to her.

"Come on! I have an idea!"

She hesitated, "You're not playing some insane Marauder prank, are you?"

"No! Well, not a prank."

She raised her eyebrow with a smirk, before she took my hand and followed me along the corridors.

"Let me just stop in my room. I need to grab some things." He turned around and pointed his finger in my face. "But you can't tell anyone. James, Sirius and Peter can't know that you know."

"Know about what?"

He smiled cheekily. "You'll see." He opened the common room door, looking around cautiously. He pointed his wand to his dorm and called out, "Accio map! Accio cloak!"

A piece of parchment and a strange patterned fabric flew to his hand.

He looked up at me. "You promise not to tell anyone?"

"I promise."

"If anyone finds out, they'll be taken away."

I chuckled nervously, "You're scaring me, Remus."

He looked at me one more time before touching the parchment with the tip of his wand.

"I solemnly swear I am up to no good."

Patterns and ink begun to form on the surface. In the centre, writing appeared, which read:

'Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs
Purveyors of Aids to Magical Mischief-Makers
are proud to present
THE MARAUDERS' MAP'

He unfolded the paper and a map of the school had appeared within. Footsteps moved around the hallways, names presented beneath.

My eyes were caught by mine and Remus' names, stood side by side.

"Rem... this is brilliant! How did you do this?"
