(Skip to end of year exams) Camille's POV

"Five more minutes!" Professor Flitwick calls. We're in our final exam of the year, Defense Against the Dark Arts theory. I sat two chairs to the right of Remus and the others were somewhere else. I finished my exam five minutes earlier, but wasn't allowed to leave. So I start to doddle on a spare piece of parchment. The sound of Professor Flitwick broke me from my thoughts.

"Quills down, please!" he squeaked. "That means you too, Stebbins! Please remain seated while I collect your parchment! Accio!" He calls and all the tests flew towards him. Knocking him over and a few students in the front row helped him up as he said thank you. I join the other four as we leave the hall.

"Did you like question ten, Moony?" Sirius asks my brother as we emerged into the entrance hall.

"Loved it" Remus replies briskly. "'Give five signs that identify the werewolf.' Excellent question" he states.

"D'you think you managed to get all the signs?" James asks him mock concerned voice. Making me giggle as Sirius wraps his arm around my shoulder.

"Think I did" Remus says seriously, as we joined the crowd thronging around the front doors eager to get out into the sunlit grounds. "One: He's sitting on my chair. Two: He's wearing my clothes. Three: His name's Remus Lupin . . ." he says making us laugh.

"That's only three dear brother, not five" I say laughing.

"I got the snout shape, the pupils of the eyes, and the tufted tail" Peter says anxiously. "But I couldn't think what else" he adds.

"How thick are you, Wormtail?" James asks impatiently. "You run round with a werewolf once a month" he says.

"Keep your voice down" Remus and I tell him. We reach a tree by the lake I kiss Sirius gently on the lips. Then hug Remus telling them I was going to hang with the girls. I head down to the lake and sit beside Lily removing my shoes and socks. Then deep my legs into the water. Alice was laying beside Frank as they look up at the clouds.

"Do you think you passed?" I ask Lily.

"I think so" she says. We continue to relax enjoying the warm breeze and cool water. When we suddenly hear a commotion. I sigh in annoyance taking my legs out of the water and drying them. Before putting my shoes and socks back on, Lily following my lead. They couldn't lay-off for one day I think as I grab my wand.

We see Sirius and James bullying Snape again. Remus ignoring them as Peter cheers them on with the gathering crowd. "Leave him ALONE!" Lily and I snap loudly. They turn to face us as James ruffles his hair.

"All right, Evans?" James asks in a deeper, more mature voice.

"Leave him alone" Lily repeats. She was looking at James with every sign of great dislike. "What's he done to you?" she demands.

"Well"James begins appearing to deliberate the point. "it's more the fact that he exists, if you know what I mean..." he finishes. The bystanders laugh and shut up with a glare from me.

"You think you're funny" Lily says coldly. "But you're just an arrogant, bullying toerag, Potter. Leave him alone" she tells him firmly.

"I will if you go out with me, Evans" James tells her. "Go on... Go out with me, and I'll never lay a wand on old Snivelly again" he states.

"I wouldn't go out with you if it was a choice between you and the giant squid" Lily tells him.

"Bad luck Prongs, at least I have my dream girl" Sirius says winking at me.

"Keep this up and I won't be yours for much longer" I threaten him. But we all know it's an empty threat. I love him to much to leave him forever. Not that we've ever said the three words to each other before.

Snape broke free of the impertinent jinx and had directed his wand straight at James. There was a flash of light and a gash appeared on the side of James's face, spattering his robes with blood. James whirled about; a second flash of light later, Snape was hanging upside down in the air. His robes falling over his head to reveal skinny, pallid legs and a pair of graying underpants. I look away as Lily draws her own wand.

She got James to stop harassing Snape only for Snape to call her a Mudblood. James tried to make Snape apologize and Lily yelled at him. Lily and I then storm off back up to the castle. Remus follows me not wanting to be there anymore either.
