This is in Remus' p.o.v. Yay!

I had been walking through the library, searching for anything that could tell me when the next full moon was. I had to make sure I made it to hogsmeade by then. I thought that I was the only one awake, but I was proved wrong when I heard someone crying in the corner. I slowly made my way over to the corner before realizing something. It was Y/n. She had a unique cry that made it sound like she was trying to be quiet about it. 

"Y/n?" I asked and walked over to her. She didn't notice me, so I sat next to her and put my hand on her leg. This made her look up. Instead of wiping her tears away, like I expected her to, she wrapped her arms around me and started sobbing into my shoulder. I hugged her back and waited for her to stop. After her cries slowly died down, I let go and looked at her. "What's wrong?" I

"Just a bad d-dream... I'm okay now, though." Her voice was shaky and I could tell by how red her eyes were, that she had been crying for a while. "I'm gonna go back to the dorms to sleep." 

"Want me to walk with you?" I asked. She hesitantly nodded and stood up. 

The walk to the dorms was mostly silent, until we parted ways at the end and said goodbye. 

I slowly slipped into the boys dorms, and fell asleep in my bed. 

Back to the normal p.o.v.

You ended up waking up late the next morning, which was okay because it was still a weekend. You were frustrated though, because you had missed breakfast. 

You ended up changing into a long-sleeve shirt, pleated skirt, and tights, before walking into the library. James was sitting, reading a book with a plate full of food next to him. When he saw you, he smiled. You sat in a chair next to him, and he put down the book. 

"Hi! I saw that you missed breakfast, so I brought you some, I hope that's okay with you," he said and pushed the plate towards you. 

"Yes! Thank you. I was hoping that I could have something to eat. I just didn't know how I would, because I slept in," you replied, and took a a bite of a piece of toast. 

"Heh, glad I could help." You faked a smile, and finished your food. 

The rest of the time till lunch, was spent with you and James talking about life. His home seemed completely different from yours, so you tried to keep the topic about yours limited, so you wouldn't have to lie too much. 

When you got to lunch you, sat next to Remus like usual and slowly started eating some tofu(my friend suggested this) You dipped it in chocolate. 

"How can you eat that stuff?" Sirius asked. James elbowed him in the arm. 

"At least she's eating!" Sirius rolled his eyes and shoved a blueberry into his mouth. You laughed and finished the tofu. You suddenly felt something dripping down your arm. 

"Shit," you mumbled. The cuts must have opened while you were eating. Remus looked up at you, curiously. "I just remembered I have something to do, so bye!" You stood up and ran to the bathroom. You sat in the stall a grabbed a piece of toilet paper and dabbed it across your arm, to try to get it to stop. It just wasn't working. You sighed. There was one person who you could tell, and ask for help. Remus. You walked out of the bathroom to find Remus patiently waiting for you. "Remus, could you h-help me?" He smiled, and pulled out some bandages. "How did you know?" 

"I could tell," he said. "Here, give me your arm." You slowly gave him your arm, and he wrapped it up. "Make sure to tell me, if you ever feel you need to cut again." 

"O-okay." No you wouldn't. That would be too awkward. He seemed satisfied with your answer and started walking away. When you were about to walk away, too, he ran back to you and hugged you tightly. you tensed up, before melting into the hug. He pulled away a second later and said,

"Ah, um... Sorry, it just felt right." He scratched the back of his head and walked away. Wow, Y/n you couldn't even hug someone right. You must be soooooo ashamed of yourself. You such a worthless loser. You should just kill yourself. It would make life easier for everyone. 

Hi! Sorry that this chapter is so short and so late, I have been busy working on schoolwork since I'm failing most of my classes. By peeps.
