You wince as another scar on your face knits itself together, a strangled gasp leaving your lips. Regulus stands in front of you, wand in hand as he slowly heals the worst of the scars left after your attack.
His gaze is troubled, and you can still feel the blood he had scourgified off of your skin. Your hand is being held in Lilyâs shaking ones, you can tell itâs taking all of her energy to hold herself together for you.
Youâre too tired to do anything other than stare blankly at Regulusâ stormy expression as you tune out Lilyâs shaking sobs that she attempts to muffle in Maryâs shoulder. Youâre unaware that Regulus is done healing you until he takes a step closer, dropping his arm to his side.
âDo I look that bad?â you joke weakly, and all Regulus does is inhale sharply, âYou look beautiful,â he says angrily. You know not to take it personally, heâs angry at the situation.
You, Lily, Mary and Regulus were sent on an Order mission to scope out a potential death eater attack hours prior from when it was intended to occur. Greyback had caught the end of Maryâs robes as she was about to find her stakeout spot.
He had cornered her, alone and in fear, she had dropped her wand. You had been the nearest to her at the time and heard Greybackâs snarling voice as he taunted her.
You didnât think to call for backup in fear of being too late to save Mary, so you had thrown yourself in front of her as you threw multiple curses in quick succession. Your failing grace had been a well timed stupefy by Greyback that had you hesitating for a short period in which he had time to attack.
It was horrible, you can barely close your eyes without seeing the looming monster above you, amber eyes illuminated by the darkness of night. You can still feel the agony of his claws slashing into you as his manic grin burns your eyelids.
Mary had been able to escape and intercept Lily and Regulus as they looked for the two of you. According to her she was a mess of tears and snot as she recalled quickly what was happening and that they needed to hurry to help you.
They had found you exactly where Mary had last seen you, mangled and in a pool of your own blood. Regulus had confessed in a plea to keep you conscious as soon as they arrived to base that he had thrown up before coming to his senses to help.
Regulus looks less pale as time passes and you start to show signs of healing such as moving without wincing. You gift him a small smile before the moment is interrupted by a slamming door and three unmistakeable sounds of loud footsteps.
Your boyfriends rush to your bed in haste, before all three stop in their tracks at the sight of your torn clothes and scars littering your skin. You think you hear Remus let out a whimper at the sight but youâre all too consumed by the grief permeating the air.
Exhaustion floods your bones as tears fill your eyes, sobs wracking through your body that have Lily, Mary and Regulus shuffling out of the small room. Remus, Sirius and James hesitate for a moment before clambering clumsily to encompass you from all angles.
You can feel the three of them shaking in sorrow and anger. Your body shakes in their hold before one wince from a badly timed squeeze has the three of them jumping far away from you in fear.
You cower away from them at the sudden movement, closing your eyes and wincing, Â before you peak one eye open to see them look at you in varying stages of despair.
âIâmâŚokay,â you offer hesitantly, eyes shining and pleading with them to believe you. Itâs Remus who breaks the silence with a scoff that has both James and Sirius looking at him incredulously.
âDonât lie to us, not about this,â he says finally, his heart breaking as he watches you cave into yourself. Thereâs a building insecurity in your chest that you know heâs aware of, all too well.
âDo I lookâŚbad?â you ask, your voice barely above a whisper. Siriusâ smile is wobbly when you look at him and your gaze catch his shaking hands as he shuffles over to the bed to cup your face softly, the same youâve seen him do to Remus after a full moon.
âI think youâre the most beautiful girl Iâve ever seen,â he offers through a warbled tone. Your eyes shine again as tears line your vision. With a sniff and a quick kiss to his palm you smile at him, loving and trusting just as you did before you had left for the mission.
âCan I hug you?â James voice cuts across the quiet room, heâs shuffling on his feet, wringing his hands as his eyes swim with worry. You know he needs to touch you to fully grasp that youâre okay and not stuck bleeding out in a random alleyway.
You offer him a small smile and a nod as you shuffle to the side of the bed, opening the covers for him to get in. He wastes no time, clambering towards you in a clumsy haste, tugging you delicately into his arms as a breath of relief leaves him.
âIâm right here.â you murmur into his chest and with a small sniffle he presses a deep kiss into your hair as his arms tighten around you in acknowledgement. You can see out of the corner of your eye, Remus shuffling into Siriusâ awaiting arms.
You lift your head slightly to catch his eyes over Siriusâ shoulder and he clenches his eyes in pain. You know what heâs thinking and before you can think better of it, you sit up slowly with maximum effort and a small wince.
James scrambles to help you as he adjusts himself to lie against the headboard, tugging you again to lie backwards against his chest. His hands rub calming circles on your hips as you breathe deeply through the pain.
Sirius and Remus watch you both in agony. You hold your hand out, eyes locking with Remusâ. He looks hesitant but with one sharp look aimed at him, he concedes and shuffles to the sit next to Jamesâs leg, hand holding yours.
With your hands intertwined, you pat your other side for Sirius to sit down, which he does with minimal hesitation, only hesitating before asking he can lay his head in your lap.
You roll your eyes fondly before nodding, heâs gentle in a way he never was before and some part of you aches for the normality youâve lost.
You lock eyes with Remus before taking a deep breath and murmuring for the three of them to hear, âHe didnât turn me.â
Sirius and James both stiffen but Remus only nods, his gaze guarded. âItâs not a fullâ he explains for Sirius and James, eyes still locked on yours. âDo you hate me?â you question weakly, and Remus immediately looks horrified as Sirius and James squawk in protests and indignation.
âHate you? Because you were attacked?!â he asks appalled. You shrug, looking away in shame before he grasps your chin in his palm, tugging your gaze back to his.
âWhy would you ever think I would be upset with you for this?â he asks, eyes pleading for you to explain. You want to close your eyes again, let the tears roll down your cheeks again because no part of you wants to have this conversation.
âYouâve never necessarilyâŚliked being a werewolf, which is okay!â you rush out before clenching your eyes shut and looking down again. âI understand you donât like this part of yourself, that you will never fully understand that James, Sirius and I love you, including your wolf side. I just thought,â You huff out a broken laugh.
âI just thought youâd hate me too for becoming something you hateâ you confess, voice cracking as insecurity coats your bitter words.
You hear Remus let out a shaky exhale, looking back at him to see tears trailing over tanned scarred skin. âI didnât mean to make you cryâ you rush out and all he can do is shake his head jerkily before leaning forward to place a deep kiss to your lips.
âThere is nothing in this world that could make me stop loving you,â he mumbles into the kiss. James and Sirius echo his sentiment, though the static in your brain seems to switch off when Remus detaches from you.
âI hate what Greyback did to me, and I will never not be thankful that you do not have to carry this burden, but even if you were turned, that would have never changed the love I hold for youâ he says seriously, unflinching and calm as he looks at you.
You laugh a little hoarsely before nodding, squeezing his hand and shuffling deeper into Jamesâ arms as your hands card through Siriusâ curls.
âYou do look pretty badass with the scarsâ Sirius adds through the silence which has James snorting into your hair, murmuring a soft, âsubtle.â
âNow you and Moony match, Prongs and I look so boring next to you guysâ Sirius continues which has James reaching over to flick his forehead in annoyance.
âSpeak for yourself Pads, my muscles are completely badass,â James smirks and flexes his biceps around you. Sirius scowls looking at him before turning his puppy dog gaze to you with a pout, âLovie, you think Iâm badass donât you?â he asks with a saccharine grin.
You shrug with a sly look that has Sirius gasping dramatically and huffing in offence. âIâll have you know if anything Iâm the most badass out of all of usâ he proclaims.
