Poly Marauders Quote Prompt #1:“We’re going to have you in the end, you know?”
[Warnings: Yandere Themes *Obviously*, Hogwarts University AU 18+, Manipulation, stalking, possessive tendencies, slight violence/mentions of medical things but loosely.]
Previously you spend most of your spare time with the guys, but lately things had seemed off to what you had come to expect from them.
They didn’t like you hanging out with other people in a romantic capacity before but now they were having issues letting you hang out with your other friends.
Constantly showing up and effectively ruining any conversation that had been happening previously, thrusting themselves into your personal space.
Before they would just claim that the person wasn’t good or right for you, but how could they make that excuse about your friends, the people you had known since you were young, having no reason not to trust them.
All of this was weighing on you, and any attempt to talk to them about it would weld no lasting results beyond a day or two.
So instead of confronting them yet again when they forced their way into where you were sitting at dinner that evening, even though you had promised to sit, eat, and study with some of your classmates you decided it was best to distance yourself.
Slowly you began avoiding them the best you could, offering to help teachers after class at the end of the day so they couldn’t figure out when you were going to be available.
Even asking your roommates if they would distract them at times so you could get to your dorm without encountering them, and for a while it worked.
What you weren’t aware of was they were questioning why you seemed to be so busy all of the sudden, asking your dormmates if there was something wrong, to which they were left without solid answers.
Finally having enough of it one day so they decided to track your every movement with the map, able to see where you were at every given moment with it.
Waiting for you outside of your classroom when you were finished thinking you had once again left them in the dark when it came to your whereabouts.
Immediately you realized they were there awaiting to speak to you, unsure of how they figured it out since it wasn’t even the teacher you had last, it was one of your earlier classes of the day.
Trying to hide all traces of nervousness you greet them, attempting to shake off any demanding questions as pure coincidence, you had just had an increase in extra credit opportunities and you needed all the help you could get.
Instantly Remus was suspicious since you never talked about needing any help prior to this, and he was the go-to tutor for most of the classes that you both shared.
Inquiring as to why you didn’t come to him if you were struggling, he would have aided you with enthusiasm since the two of you were so close, mentioning that it kind of hurt a little that you didn’t trust him.
Feeling a pang of guilt in your stomach you apologized claiming that you didn’t want to bother him especially with exams coming up really soon, figuring that he needed to do his own studying.
While to most it would be believable, unfortunately they could read you like a book at this point, able to tell that you were hiding something from them, and they did not like it at all.
Sirius gives you his typical puppy dog eyes asking if they did something wrong, even laying on a tiny bit thicker by letting crocodile tears start to form as he looks into your own.
James added a soft apology if they did offend you somehow, they just truly cared about you and wanted to fix things, hating that you didn’t seem to want to be around them as much anymore.
Once again you brought up the issues you had been having with them for a while now, asking that they give you space at times when you need it.
Of course they eagerly agreed despite knowing that they would never actually keep to that for the long haul, simply just to appease you in the current situation.
Talking through it further they seemed to really understand what it was that they had done wrong, and at first it seemed they were determined to do better by you.
That is until you were asked to Hogsmeade by someone as a date and you accepted, not notifying them, only overhearing about it from Lily and Marlene when they were mentioning how happy they were for you to each other.
Continuing to stand nearby until they heard the name of the person who had tried to steal what was clearly theirs, agreeing that they would learn to regret it by the time they were finished with them.
Going into action they started planning all sorts of pranks to play on them to scare them away from their intentions of taking you out, some more cruel than others.
First they put dye in their shampoo turning it a bright pink color embarrassing them and garnering them detention even though they didn’t do it purposefully.
That delayed the date by a week, giving them more of an opportunity to plot out the next one which ended up being slipping instant boil potion into their pumpkin juice, causing painful lumps to form on their face again making it so you couldn’t go out.
At this point you had a pretty good idea of who was torturing the poor person, but you couldn’t exactly prove it, and you highly doubted they would be forthcoming with the information if you were to ask them.
Deciding to try anyway, approaching the situation with calmness knowing that going in with hostility would make them shut down instead of open up.
Plainly asking but not being accusatory, if they had anything to do with the misfortunes that had befallen your new acquaintance, adding that you wouldn’t be mad you just wanted to know why.
Looking back and forth at each other Remus admitted that they had romantic feelings towards you and were hoping to dissuade you both from dating so they stood a chance.
James gazed at his feet afraid of what he would see if he were to view your features after the admission, which was incredibly truthful but ultimately devious.
Replying that you were flattered but you still wanted to attend the outing and if things didn’t go well then the conversation could be revisited, you were an honest person who kept their word so this wasn’t exactly surprising.
Adding that you wanted them to leave the other party out of it, and let it happen naturally without any outside influence from them.
Sirius scoffed, rolling his eyes which caused you pause as you wondered where he got the audacity to act like it was okay to treat people like they were subhuman just because they liked you.
Opening his mouth making a statement with absolute certainty that you will never forget as long as you live, likely because it was about to affect the rest of your life from then on.
“We’re going to have you in the end, you know?”
Inside James and Remus were screaming in their heads that he was taking things too far, and letting too much of their tendencies show, but at the same time it had been getting harder and harder to hide it as their obsession with you grew.
Wide eyes were stuck on Sirius as your mouth dropped open, unable to actually believe that you had heard him correctly, beckoning him to repeat what he had just said.
Once again he reiterated the sentiment, dread filling you from your head down as you had no idea how to respond to that, noting how sure of those words he seemed as he clearly enunciated each one with precision.
It was then that you knew you were in danger, and there was no one in the world that would be able to save you once they had dug their claws into you.
It was far too late in the end, you belonged to them whether you wanted to or not, there was not a single thing you could do about it, helpless to your own cause.
[I changed the prompt to a plural, but I couldn’t help but think of my boys when I read it! I hope that you all enjoy, and that you find this as engaging as I did writing it! <3]
