"What's Fred said now?" Remus asked as we got to the classroom

"He's said things. Things that he'd never say about me. Things he knows I'll never do." I said

"Hey hey." Remus dropped my bag to the floor and pushed my hair out of my face looking at me

"He doesn't understand. He never will. I don't know how to make him understand physical contact is hard for us. I can't make him understand that I'm too insecure to sleep with someone. I don't know how to make him see it my way." I felt tears running down my face

"Hey. No sweetheart don't cry." Remus stepped closer and opened his arms for me.

I threw myself into his arms and broke down completely. Crying then sobbing.

"Shh. It's okay. He's still your friend. I know you'll find a way to make him see reason. You can do it. If anyone can do it you can." Remus whispered

I nodded not trusting my voice to stay steady.

Remus held me until I cried myself out. I took a step back and dried my eyes.

"I'm gonna have to talk to him tomorrow. It's the only way I can get this to stay contained."
I sighed

"I don't think Fred's the type to spread rumors." Remus said

"He's not. Someone could have easily over heard though. From what Lee said he was pretty upset. He gets loud when he's upset." I shrugged

"It's gonna be okay. You can get it all figured out.We'll get everything settled once you've got some sleep okay?" Remus smiles

"Sure" I nodded

"Do you want to have a shower?" Remus asked

"I think I should." I sighed

"I'll pick up a book and let you have your shower. If you need me shout." He smiled and picked up my bag for me
