A/N This is an AU Harry Potter
fanfic set in Remus Lupin's Hogwarts days. What about it is AU? This
focuses on their school days in a “What if?” setting, if
there had never been any dark lord. Gryffindor and Slytherin still
have a long standing hate for each other, dating back to Godric and
Salazar's feud when building the school.
This is slash people and it does not
follow any time line.
The sandy haired
teenager rolled over onto his stomach. The drapes that hung around
his bed fluttered as cold, winter wind blew through the crack in the
open window. A tap tap brought
Remus out of his thoughts. Quietly, the seventeen year old pushed his
legs over the side of his bed and slowly made his way to the window.
When he saw the owl there, he pushed the window open further so she
could get inside.
“Ello,” Remus whispered as he stroked the bird's silky
feathers. She lifted her leg, waiting patiently as the brown haired
boy removed the letter she had attached. “What have you got
here?” Remus gave the owl a treat, before walking over to his
bed. He set down and then looked at the letter in his hands.
It had his name on it written in fancy typing somebody had written
with a wand.
Opening the envelope, Remus
blinked a couple times at what he saw.
Dear
Mr. Remus J Lupin,
I
regret to inform you of this – Do to a error on my part and in
trying to develop a cure for your condition, a potion has backfired.
Mr. Severus Snape who was serving his detention with me for the
disturbance he and Mr. Sirius Black had caused, unwillingly had to
volunteer to be my assistant in making it. He is one of the best in
potions at Hogwarts as you might be aware.
The
potion should have been harmless and I still believe it to be
harmless to both your health, though maybe not mental health if
judging by the feud you and your friends have with Mr. Snape. The
potion we created was supposed to use the powers of wolfsbane and a
few other key ingredients to make your transformations less painful,
with the hopes of them becoming less often, until they stopped all
together.
When
the potion backfired, it exploded, coating Mr. Snape from head to
toe. In the potion were some very personal items of yours –
hair and fingernail clippings I had a house elf collect.
At
this very moment, Mr. Snape is passed out in the hospital wing being
fretted over by Poppy. When he awakes, I can not be sure what will
come to pass. Since Mr. Snape was coated in a very powerful potion
made up of some of your essence, I do believe you and Mr. Snape will
experience some sort of mind bond, though it should be temporary, for
how long, I have no idea.
Once
again, I do apologize. I was only trying to make your transformations
easier on yourself. Do keep this to yourself – Obviously
explaining why this has happened will arouse too many questions about
your condition. Mr. Snape already knows of your condition as you are
well aware from the actions of Mr. Black the other night with the
shrieking shack. He has agreed to keep it a secret. I would use this
opportunity to make friends with Mr. Snape. The feud between houses
have gone on long enough and I know that you have nothing personally
against him.
Just
some food for thought.
Respectfully
yours,
Albus
Percival
Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
With
wide eyes, Remus closed the letter and put it away with the rest of
his personal items. Mind
bonding, cure for my condition? The
teenager shook his head. Dumbledore
knows there is no possible cure... and now look what has happened.
Though
Remus couldn't help feeling a little pleased that the headmaster
cared enough to try and make his condition easier on him. But to have
Snape help?
It was true that Remus had
nothing against the Slytherin, though Remus knew that wasn't true for
Snape. Snape hated Remus just because he hung out with James and
Sirius and they always picked on him. Remus hated bullying and tried
to get his friends to stop, but they never listened. He even felt
pity for Snape, half wishing they could all get past the stupid feud
their houses had and be friends. They had known each other for almost
seven years after all.
Mind
bonding. Sirius would probably die if he knew. Godric how will Snape
react to this? Just how far will this mind bonding go? Will it just
be like telepathy, or will we seriously be able to hear everything
the other thinks and dreams? Will we hear every thought, or just the
thoughts directed toward each other?
Confused and nervous about what
tomorrow would bring, Remus laid back down and tried to go to sleep.
Severus woke with a start, his
eyes wide and wild. He looked around the room, trying to remember
where he was. Oh yes, he remembered. He had been helping Dumbledore
with a potion meant to ease Lupin's pain when he transformed. Severus
scowled, annoyed that he had to help the very person who had tried to
kill him.
That isn't true!
The
voice in his mind was so loud and painful that it made Severus yell
out in alarm. That was not his voice!
What
the hell? Lupin...?
Yes, Severus would be able to recognize Lupin's voice anywhere, even
if it was in his own mind. I
must be dreaming, but why would I dream about you?
If you're dreaming then so am
I. Dumbledore hasn't told you the side affects of the potion you were
making, had he?
I've
only just woke up, Severus
replied. He rubbed the back of his head. What was going on. Why could
he hear Lupin's thoughts? Why could Lupin hear his?
Quickly
he was told by Lupin about the letter he had received. All color
drained from Severus's face. You've
got to be joking. We're to share a mind!
I'm
not exactly thrilled by the idea either, came
Lupin's quiet voice. His voice just barely tickled at Severus's
mind and for some reason the raven haired teenager shivered.
Meet
me in the library, Remus
thought, knowing that whatever he now thought Snape would hear. It
was unsettling to say the least. Remus had more then one deep, dark
secret. Some would think it were just as bad as being a werewolf.
I
already knew that one, came
Snape's voice. A
idiot child would even be able to pick up on how you follow around
Black like a love sick puppy.
Remus
flushed. I do not follow
anyone around like a love sick puppy. You have no idea what you are
talking about. Though
Remus knew Snape probably did know what he was talking about and for
some reason the werewolf could feel jealousy coming from him and he
didn't understand why. I
see no reason why I should have to explain myself to you – I do
not feel anything other then friendship for Sirius.
Doesn't
change the fact that you're a ponce, does it? As
soon as Snape asked that, Remus had a very vivid image of them
snogging in the broom closet and he wasn't the one thinking about it
either.
“I'm
not the...” Remus stopped when he realized he was talking out
loud, though Snape probably clearly heard what he had thought. You're
the one who just thought about kissing me.
I did no such thing!
Whatever.
They set across from each other,
both glaring and though neither would admit it, blushing as well.
They couldn't deny what Severus had thought when the subject had been
brought up. The air around them was very awkward, neither seemed to
want to be the first to speak, though no words were really needed.
I
can't believe... he has a crush on me, Remus
thought, despite trying to keep his mind clear.
“I do not have a crush on
you,” Severus growled lowly.
“Then what was that?”
Remus asked. He glanced down at the table, obviously shy about the
situation.
I
don't know, Severus
answered, though Remus could tell that that wasn't the whole truth.
Looking up, Remus gave the other boy a gentle smile. It's okay. It
doesn't have to mean anything. We're teenage boys as simple as that.
You know hormones can run a muck when you're stressed... What's more
stressing then sharing a mind with someone you'd rather have nothing
to do with? That really wasn't true for Remus, but it seemed as
if Severus was never going to believe that he had not been apart of
the shrieking shack plan.
Severus wouldn't meet Remus's eyes and it was clear that he had heard
everything the other had thought, even the things that weren't
directed toward him. The dark haired Slytherin sighed. Finally, he
glanced up and let himself really study Remus's face. He was handsome
for sure. As soon as he thought it, he knew Remus had heard him,
though the brown haired werewolf was pretending to ignore what was
said. Severus sighed again.
“Truce,” Remus offered, holding his hand out for the
other. “I've said sorry I don't know how many times. Will you
believe me now?” He asked quietly.
Studying the hand for a few moments, Severus rolled his eyes, before
reaching out and clasping it. “Yeah, fine...” He grunted.
“Truce.” Your friends won't like it.
Remus's eyes sparkled. Too bad for them. He really did care
for his group of friend, but the ridicules rivalry between them and
Severus had gone on for too long.
I didn't start
it, Severus reminded Remus.
Remus
frowned. Yeah, I know.
