Lumos ⤳ sirius black

Chapter 43, Healing.

*Lucys POV*

I woke up to Padfoot next to me, and Peter leaving. I'm assuming to get food, but I don't really know.

"Hi." I weakly said, "Hey." Sirius replied. "How are you feeling?" "My back hurts, but other than that I'm fine." James entered.

  "Hey Lumos," He said, "How are you feeling?" I rolled my eyes and told him the same thing I told Padfoot. Sirius laughed and said he was going to talk to Peter.

"We asked Minnie," Prongs told me, "She already knew of course, from the beginning. She seemed alarmed but said that you would be ok, but you would gain wolfish traits."

  I groaned. "Why is it always me?" I asked him, "Cause you're the bravest one." He said with a smile. "Thanks." He coughed, "Lily wants to see you, do you want her to come up here?"

  "Yeah of course." James opened the door and Lily came bustling in. "I'm sorry! This is all my fault and thank goodness you're alright!" She said hugging me a little too tight.

  "Lily," I said breathlessly, "The wound." She released me in an second, "Right of course." She asked me the same things everyone did, how I felt, blah blah blah.

  "Ok. Well I have to leave, I have Charms first today. Bye!" And like that she left. I was trying to get up, when Prongs pushed me back down. "You're staying here, whether you like it or not."

  "Why?" I whined. "You said it already! Your back hurts!" "But other than that I'm fine!" He sighed, "Look, just stay here, Pads said that he'll stay here but I don't know where he is. Plus, you need to take care for the Quidditch game. Bye Lumos."

  He closed the door and left me alone with my thoughts.
Shit. I've got a Quidditch game in two days.

  I mean, I'm not going to Madame Pomfrey, of course I'm not that stupid. I mean, I could sneak in and get something or, or.

"Lucy!" I said, and in a second, She appeared. "Hello Mistress!"  She said waving at me. "Do you know what could help a werewolf bite?" She looked alarmed.

  "It's for a DADA assignment." She thought for a little bit, "Well, I guess you could get hil—" "Great! Could you get me some!?"

  "I knew Mistress was hiding something! Did a werewolf bite you?" I thought about what I should tell her. "Look, I'll tell you right now, but I forbid you to tell it to anyone. Even Dumbledore." She nodded and said she'll be back.

  Lucy brought me the painkillers and I explained everything. She knew that there was a werewolf around but she didn't know who it was. Apparently she heard a student and Dumbledore talking about a werewolf. She eventually left, and I went to sleep.

  "Should we tell him?" I heard a voice ask, "No, not yet. Moony has more than enough to deal with." Prongs responded. "Then how do we explain that?" Padfoot asked him.

  "I still don't know, but we've got about a week to figure that out." Prongs said and then I heard Wormtail come in.

  "Remus is still in the hospital wing, he looks pretty bad." Wormtail told them, "Of course," Padfoot said. "What did you do exactly?" Prongs asked him, "Well, he needed to calm down so I did somethings."

  "Like?" Prongs asked impatiently, "He had to distract him." Wormtail replied, "Exactly!" Padfoot said, his tone saying everything he needed to say.

  "Don't fight in front of me." I said opening one eye. "Yeah, yeah, but how do you feel?" James asked me, "Lucy gave me a painkiller so that was nice."

  "Do you think you'll be able to play in the match?" Wormtail asked me, sitting in a stool next to my bed. "I hope so, I've only got a week, plus like James said, we shouldn't tell Moony about what happened."

Prongs laughed, "Ha! I told you!" He said, pointing at Sirius. "Shut up James." Sirius said, clearly annoyed.

  "I'm gonna take a shower." I said leaving for the bathroom. My thoughts came racing back to me as soon as I went in.

What if Moony finds out?
How would he react?
What if Minnie or someone else finds out?
What if a student found out?
Would Remus be expelled?
Would I go to Azkaban for being an unregistered animagus?
Would we go to Azkaban for being unregistered animagus?

I shook the thought off, I had enough to deal with right now.
