'The difference between friendship and love is how much you can hurt each other.' Meet Remus Lupin. Best friends with fellow Marauders Sirius 'padfoot' Black, James 'Prongs' Potter and Peter 'Wormtail' Pettigrew. He comes back to Hogwarts, expecting a relatively normal fifth year.

For the first time in his life, a girl had made him smile, and he's willing to take a chance on the secretive girl. But there's just one problem. A problem known as Severus Snape; the moody dark haired boy, who has stolen her heart without even realising it. Both boys have flaws, secrets and lies. But she has a couple of her own. But the question remains: who will she choose?
