Sirius had taken Mercy's comment to heart. She was right. If he made any further advances, then it could ruin their friendship if she didn't feel the same as he did. Sirius wasn't sure if he fancied Mercy, but he knew he felt a desire to protect her from the likes of Rosier and Crouch.

In reality, she only said that because she didn't want him to know that she wanted to shag him. She never thought about Sirius in ways other than shagging. It was all the girls mentioned in their daily discussions. Mercy wanted to shag Sirius, not date him.

Another popular discussion between the girls was Lily and James. Lily was opening up to James. After his so-called prank on Snape and her insult toward James, he had stopped being so forward with his actions, which Lily appreciated very much.

Meanwhile, Remus was back with the Marauders. After a full moon alone, he realized how much it sucked to be alone. He was still afraid of hurting his friends, so he didn't mention it. When the next full moon rolled around, his friends were there, ready to help, and he was glad.

Mercy and Sirius were a hot spot of gossip between the Marauders, especially since Sirius was confused about what to do with Mercy.

"You fancy her," Remus told him.

"Huh?"

"You fancy her," repeated Peter.

"I heard what he said," muttered Sirius. "Are you sure?"

Remus rolled his eyes. "I can't be the one to decide for you, Padfoot. I'm just saying what I think. You don't have to take it so seriously."

"You're the smart one," Sirius informed.

"You all are smart. I just have common sense," he retorted.

"I take offense to that," James called out.

"As you should. You pined after Lily for five years and she's just now acknowledging you as a human being," Remus retorted.

"So it's true? I fancy Mercy?" asked Sirius.

"Saying you do fancy her: what do you like about her?" asked Remus.

"Well, she's cute. She's a crybaby, but I like it. She's kind to me, but isn't afraid to smack me around. She's terrified of Rosier and Crouch, and yet, always looks at me for help. It's something she does whenever something bad happens. She'll try to find me."

Remus spread out his arms before leaning back, falling onto his bed. "What did I say, boys? Sirius fancies Mercy."
