{-AUTHOR'S NOTE-}

If y'all have any cute ideas, lemme know, because I don't have a plan for the next chapter 😭

Also, how do y'all say Remus? I say it Ray-mus but I've seen people say Ree-mus.
Anyway, prepare for angst!

"Y/n? Is something wrong?"

It was dinner. Everyone was chatting excitedly about one thing or another.

Except for Y/n.

She sat, just staring at her plate, eyes almost glazed over, pale as a ghost.

The table went quiet when I asked, and she finally raised her head.

"You haven't eaten anything," I stated.

She glanced down at her plate, this time actually taking in the sight of her cold food.

"I'm not hungry."

"You said weren't hungry at breakfast either," Lily frowned.

"Are you feeling okay?" James asked.

"I-I..." Her eyes flitted over all of our faces in a panic. Her chest began to rise and fall rapidly and I watched as the colour drained from her face completely.

"Y/n," I said softly. "You wanna go out into the corridor? Just you and me?"

She nodded, placing her hand on her chest.

I guided her carefully out of the Hall, nodding to our friends as we left.

"Are you feeling okay?"

She nodded distantly, eyes fixed on the ground.

"Need to go to hospital wing."

"Want me to come with you?"

"No. You can't."

"What?"

{-Y/N L/N-}

Need...
Need to...
Need to get away.

"Y/n, what's wrong? Why can't I help?" He pestered and pestered.

Need...

"I need to go, Remus." I said.

"You look like you're gonna be sick. Can't I help?" Pester pester.

"No, please, I need..."

Need.
You know what you need.

"What? What do you need?"

I realised he was behind me.
I must have walked very fast.

My legs could have given way.
But they didn't.

Because I needed to...

"Y/n, you know me. You know my secret. Why can't I help?"

"Please get away!" I insisted.

But he pestered.

"I want to understand. Explain in one word, you can elaborate later. Please?"

His footsteps stopped behind me.
Good.
They were far too loud.
Like knives against my ears.

"Need." I explained.

"Need? What do you need?"

I turned around.
I couldn't stop myself anymore.
He just stood there.
Idiot.
