"Go on." Sirius challenged, glaring at the werewolf. "What more did you say?"

"I basically called her an idiot." Remus continued. "In multiple ways..."

"There's more, Remus."

"And then I called Regulus a death eater; more than just once." Remus admitted, glancing up at James, whose expression fell by the second. "And..."

James' eyes widened, "There's more?!"

"And then I said," Remus sighed, leaving the bloodied paper towel on the bed. "At least I'm not fucking a death eater while wanting his brother. For all I know, you could be turning into one."

"Hold on." James muttered, obviously confused. "Sirius?"

"Well, isn't it fucking obvious?" Remus spat, anger rising in his chest again. "She told me she wants to stop hooking up because she's in love with someone. Someone I know very well, according to her. And you two are basically attached to the hip, so who else could it be?!"

"For someone so smart, you really are daft."

"Why are you even trying to deny it?" Remus insisted, his voice becoming louder. "I saw you two skipping class to go to the Room of Requirements on the map. Conveniently enough, you forgot all about Monica after that! You couldn't shut up about her before!"

Sirius could barely restrain himself from punching Remus again, "Are you suggesting I slept with Callisto?"

"I'm not just suggesting it." 

"Why would you even care, Remus?!"

"Because I'm in fucking love with her!" Remus shouted. "And you're fucking with her when she has feelings for you!"

Silence fell in the ward, both Gryffindors staring at Remus with similar shocked expressions in their faces. They both had suspected that Remus had feelings for Callisto, but they thought that when the time for him to confess his feelings came, it wouldn't be as sudden and in the Hospital Ward.

"I would never hurt her on purpose." Remus mumbled, all the anger dissolving at the revelation. "And now I fucked up completely..."

"Callisto isn't in love with me, Moony." Sirius stated, the mere thought of him and Callisto dating making him gag slightly. "This is practically spiritual incest."

"But you went to the Room of Requirements." Remus insisted. "She skipped class for you. And you completely forgot about Monica after that."

"Yes, because Monica is apparently insane." Sirius explained, trying to hold back his laughter at how ridiculous it all was. "Callisto and Monica used to date last year, Moony. She was trying to warn me about her."

"Wait, what?" James blurted out, staring at Sirius like he spoke a foreign language he had never heard of before.

"Callisto."

"Yes."

"And Monica."

"Got it."

"Kind of gay."

"That explains so much..." James pondered, humming in agreement. "Why was she trying to warn you though? What did she do?"

"Land her in the hospital." Sirius vaguely answered, not wanting to get into specifics about Callisto's health issues. "Monica is a vampire and there was biting involved. She showed me everything with a Pensieve. That relationship was screwed up."

"If Monica and Callisto didn't end well, then why was Monica trying to help me get with her?" Remus asked, trying to process everything.

"Look where her advice got you." James commented. "Maybe she knew you two would end up like that."
