A/N: I don't know much about hospitals and stuff so this is my interpretation on how it is most commonly portrayed. Also italics show what someone is thinking, bold means an author's note, and POV is always Remus unless I write otherwise.

P.s. the song at the top is called Skin and Bones by Marianas Trench

Lily's POV

Where is everyone? The halls are empty as I run through them looking for a nurse that can check up on Re. Suddenly, I hear noise coming from behind the door in front of me. Yes finally someone who can help us. I walk to the door when suddenly a stretcher being carried by multiple doctors followed by a boy who is crying and Damn he is pretty hot...WAIT no Lily don't think like that right now.

"GET OUT OF THE WAY GIRL!" I hear someone yell. This pulls me out of my thoughts and I get out of the way just in time to stop myself from being run over by the stampede. Well, at least I know where some doctors are. Turning down into another hall, I nearly run face first into a nurse.

"Watch where you're walking girl," the way she talks seems like she is ready to leave this place but Rem needs help if he wants to get out of this hell so she's my best bet.

"I'm sorry ma'am but Remus Lupin in room 274 was brought here last night unconscious and just woke up. I was told to get a doctor to run tests as soon as he had woken up," I try to be polite and somewhat calm as I speak to her but damn, this lady really should find a job that doesn't involve talking or interacting with other people.

"Yes,yes right away," she still sounds bored but whatever. I lead her to Remus's room and she asks me questions on the way there.

"How long has he been awake?" she asks.

"About 10 minutes," I reply.

"Why was he brought here?"

"He starves himself and if he eats he will throw up whatever it is he ate." when she heard this, the lady perked up.

"I see. You said he was unconscious when he was brought here, I assume he fainted?"

"Yes ma'am, when I found him he had thrown up and I assume he fainted from that."

"How are you related to him?" at this question I start to lose my confidence. I know that we aren't related but they can't let his family here they will kill him even with multiple witnesses but if I lie then we could be in even more trouble.

"Miss? I asked how you were related," she says startling me from my thoughts.

"Er...um yea he's my brother? He moved in with me nearly a year ago," I still try to sound confident but my answer sounds more like a question than anything.

"Alright then, here we are" the lady sounds unconvinced.

Remus's POV

After a while I hear someone open the door and I hope it's Lily.

"Remmy?" Lily's gentle voice comes from the doorway then I see her walking towards me with another lady following her. Her eyes are filled with fear.

"I'm ok Lils you don't need to worry."

"I know, I know just look I got someone who can tell us when you can leave" she gestures to the lady standing next to her.

Finally the lady speaks, "Yes, I am Nymphadora Tonks, assistant nurse to Dr. Pomfrey"

She has bright pink hair that kind of reminds me of bubblegum Ugh bubblegum, just the thought of it makes me sick. Nymphadora must be younger than me she looks fairly useful and she's pretty cute, despite her horrid hair color.

̈"H-hello, I-um- I am Remus Lupin" dammit, why did I just stutter?

"I just need to run some tests to determine how stable you are. Is that ok with you?" she addresses the question to both me and Lily but when Lily sees my confusion she speaks up quickly.

̈"Yes, that it quite alright with both me and my er... brother," brother? She was smart to tell the lady that we were related if my family found me here...I can't bear to think of what might happen. Nymphadora looks at me and I nod slightly and she turns back to a cart with supplies on it. When she finishes her tests, she looks back up at me and says, "Dr. Pomfrey will be here in a moment she will be more help to you than I can be at the moment." That slightly worries me but hopefully it doesn't mean anything. I smile and nod, "Ok,thank you Nymphadora."

"I prefer Tonks if you don't mind," wow this lady has a problem with her attitude. She leaves and Lily and I are left alone.

"You like her don't you?" Lily asks.

"Her? With that repulsive hair color and horrid attitude, definitely not," I lied, but Lily saw right through me.

"̈Yea, sure you don't" of course Lily doesn't believe me the girl knows me better than anyone else in the world.

A/N Sorry this took so long I've been super busy on break and didn't know how to finish the chapter. It's a bad ending but next chapter will be better. I need help deciding between making this wolfstar or ronks I have a plan for both and if anyone has ideas for small filler chapters message me please.
