I take my head out of my hands "You think?" I ask.

"I know." I reassure her. "I know for sure."

"I know it's a lot to ask but will you...will you help me. Next full moon i mean?" I ask quietly.

"Of course. We're in this together, alright?" I smile reassuringly.

"Alright." I say and give him a weak smile. "What does it feel like?" I ask afterwards.

"Painful." I say honestly, not wanting to go into more detail so I wouldn't scare her at all.

I wince slightly at his answer "How painful?" I ask.

"Very." I say, again with the honestly. "Probably the most painful thing you will ever experience. Bodies aren't supposed to change like that, so when they do-..." I shake my head bitterly. "It hurts."

I bite my lip, scared. "Do you ever get used to it?" I ask quietly.

"I would like to say yes. But I've been living with this for 10 years. Sometimes I still dread the full moon, it still hurts everytime it happens, it still hurts for about 2 days afterwards. Everytime." I say sadly, wishing I could say something to make it better, but at the same time desperate to keep what I was saying honest.

I bite my lip harder in fright "Is it okay for me to be absolutly terrified?" I ask.

"Yes. I wish you wouldn't be, but I understand that of course you're going to be."

"A week and a half."

"I better prepare myself then." I sigh.

"There's not much you can do, in all honestly. Just try not to think about it all the time, and carry on as well as you can."

I nod slowly and silently.

"Don't worry, Izzy." I say quietly. "Please, don't. I know I'm not the most reassuring person to talk to about this, but please don't worry. It'll be okay. Cliched as that sounds, it will be."

"I'm just scared Rem, scared of the fact that i'll have no control over what i do. What if i hurt someone." I say.

Post by Remus Lupin on Apr 27, 2007 13:52:14 GMT
"The lack of control is the worst thing." I admit. "And if you hurt someone-..." I pause, the screams once again filling my head then carry on. "Then you better pray they're alright or you might never get over it."

"I don't know if i could live with myself if i hurt someone." I say quietly.

"You will." I say. "I did. And it's very hard, but you'll keep going and it'll get better and it'll geat easier, even if it seems like it won't."

I nod slowly again, still terrified. But i was glad i had someone to talk to about it, someone who had gone through it all before, someone who understands.

"Thanks Rem." I say and smile weakly "I don't know what i'd do without you."

"Probably be a lot less bored." I laugh weakly. "Without me going off into textbook mode."

I laugh slightly "No i would melt and burn from the stress of not having anyone to talk to."
