Robyn Morrow was a legilimens and when it came to Remus Lupin's big secret...she didn't have to be told.
Reading was Robyn's only escape from the countless thoughts running through her head, that was until a certain lanky, scarred, chocolate-loving...

"You're gonna be fine, sweetheart."
"NO I WON'T! I'M NOT AS SMART AS YOU, REMUS YOU PERFECT SON OF A BITCH!"
"No, you're probably smarter than me, beautiful. I have full faith that you'll ace these exams."
"NO I WON'T! I'LL DO REALLY SHIT AND BE KEPT BACK ANOTHER YEAR AT HOGWARTS AND I WON'T SEE YOU FOR TWO YEARS AND YOU'LL GET BORED AND FIND SOMEONE NEW!"
"You'll pass at the top of your year and will have the option to go into whatever future you choose. And I will never want someone else, Ro. I only want you."
"WHY ARE YOU SO AMAZING! I'M TRYING TO BE ANGRY AND NOW I'M BLUSHING!" Robyn pouted up at her boyfriend who was chuckling softly as he tenderly stroked her upper arms. They were sitting in Remus' bed and Robyn was due to take her first O.W.L. in 15 minutes. Remus had skipped Transfiguration to reassure his girlfriend before her exam and he didn't seem to be doing a very good job.
"I'll be waiting as soon as you finish and we can get some food and you can tell me all about how good you did." he took a hold of her hands and Robyn visibly calmed down,
"I'm sorry I shouted at you." she mumbled sheepishly and Remus let out a laugh,
"Well, you sounded angry but you called me perfect and amazing so I didn't think you were angry at me." he smirked and Robyn rolled her eyes,
"Why does the first exam have to be Charms!" she groaned and leant forward, resting her forehead on Remus' chest,
"Oi! I have taught you very well, my little lovebird. You'd better excel!"
"REMUS!" Robyn leant back and smacked his arm, "DO. I. LOOK. LIKE. I NEED. MORE. PRESSURE?!" she slapped him with every word and Remus laughed loudly,
"I'm joking! I promise you'll be amazing!" he held her wrists softly to stop her smacks and she glared at him.
"Ro? Are you in here?"
"Are you clothed?"
"Rory!"
"What, Ara?! We're walking into her boyfriend's dorm and I want to make sure there's nothing there that we don't want to see! I'm sure you wouldn't like it if Robyn barged into my dorm when-"
"I can read your thoughts, Rory. I know when you're...clothed." Robyn smiled as her best friends walked through the door, Ara rolling her eyes and Rory smirking wildly,
"Remus gets it." the boy offered his hand for Remus to high-five. The lycanthrope chuckled and went to do so when Robyn pulled his arm down, shaking her head,
"That doesn't deserve a high-five, Remus."
"Of course not, sweetheart." Remus agreed.
"Ready for the exam, Ro?" Ara grinned and Robyn stuck her tongue out at her as she got up from Remus' bed,
"No, but let's go." she kissed Remus goodbye and he wished her luck as she linked arms with Ara,
"Rory! Heel!" Arabella shouted as the two girls left the room. A slap was heard and Rory sprinted after them,
"I GOT THE HIGH-FIVE! HAHAHAHA! FUCK YOU, ROBYN!"
------
"OH THANK FUCK! WE'RE FINISHED!" Robyn flopped down on the sun-warmed grass where the Marauders and Nathan were sat, Rory and Ara not far behind.
"How did they go?" Eloise asked and Robyn sat up, leaning against Remus' chest as she sat in between his legs.
"I excelled." she flicked her hair and Remus wrapped his arms around her waist,
"Told you." he whispered and kissed her cheek.
"GET A ROOM!" Sirius threw grass at them and the pair looked at him with raised eyebrows - Eloise was sat on his lap, facing him, and his hands were dangerously close to her arse,
"Hypocrite." Robyn pointed to him and Eloise giggled, turning around on Sirius' lap so she was sideways and curled into his chest.
"How about you two, how did your exams go?" Nate asked Rory and Ara and the pair shrugged, telling him they did alright.
"I'm just glad they're over, to be honest." Ara leant back on her hands and closed her eyes, soaking in the early summer sun. "It's God's birthday present to Robyn." she joked.
"Birthday present? It's your birthday?" James asked and Robyn looked up at him,
"Yep. Sweet sixteen." she smiled and Rory and Ara were confused to see that everyone looked surprised, even Remus.
"Why didn't you tell me?" the boy muttered and Robyn shrugged,
"It never came up." she responded and her boyfriend frowned, moving so she wasn't leaning on him anymore. Their friends sensed tension and went silent,
"Robyn...It's your birthday and I didn't get you anything." he gently tilted her chin so she was looking at him,
"I didn't want anything."
"I'm your boyfriend, Robyn." he sounded hurt and Robyn frowned, she didn't think it would offend him if she didn't tell him it was her birthday.
'Why didn't she tell us...she didn't even tell Moony? Did something happen?'
'Oh no, I feel so awful! Birdie got me a wonderful present and I didn't get her anything at all!'
'So now Lou is going to drag me to Hogsmeade tonight...brilliant.'
"I'm sorry. I didn't think it was a big deal." she frowned when Remus looked away from her. He took his hand away from her face and stood up,
"Elle." he gestured with his head for the girl to go with him and she got off Sirius' lap. Remus started walking away and Robyn stared after him. Eloise tutted and bent down to give Robyn a hug,
"Happy birthday anyway, Birdie. I'll get you a present as soon as I can." she promised and Robyn nodded, attempting a small smile but continuing to watch Remus' retreating figure, "Don't worry about Moony, I think he's just confused." Eloise squeezed Robyn before hurrying after Remus. Robyn's mind whirred. Was Remus really upset because she didn't tell him it was her birthday? She didn't not tell him. She didn't have to ask Remus' birthday because she could just read his mind..she hadn't thought about her own birthday. Though maybe it was slightly odd, not letting him know. Robyn was filled with guilt. Did he think she didn't want to spend her birthday with him? Well...she knew that's what he thought because she had heard it. Knowing everything was a blessing and a curse. And at that moment, she knew she fucked up.
