Lily couldn’t really decipher the emotion in Mary’s words when they were in written form and she hated it. So she looked at her face, looking for anything that would tell her how to act around her with this topic. As much as she refused to give up, they were running out of ideas, books, spells, charms, potions and anything that they could try. And she needed to know if she should be hopeful and demanding or a bit calmer if Mary was growing frustrated. She was afraid of driving her to a point where Mary herself wouldn’t want to try anymore. “We can’t do that. It’s way more risky. He’d definitely notice that much stuff going missing if he already haven’t notice the small amounts we’ve been stealing.” she sighed. “It’ll work, Mary.” she said with a small, cautious smile and squeezed her hand. “I have faith in this one. And I promise, I’ll give Professor Slughorn a pet fish or something if this works.” she chuckled.

What Lily said made alot of sense, but at the same time if they kept traipsing down to Slughorns pantry there was a higher chance they would get caught sneaking in again. “Alright.” she said with a nod of her head, trying not to feel to defeated. Before any other feelings could sink in and send her laying in bed for hours she stood up from where she sat on the floor. she brushed her hands over her butt making sure her skirt was where it was supposed to be. “A fish?” She asked confused as she turned towards the girl still sitting on the bed. “That seems like a weird present but I can’t stand Slughorn so I wouldn’t be the person to think up a gift for the man. All I know is I am ready to get this over with. Shall we go?”

Lily jolted up from the little scare she got from Mary’s quill. One would expect her to get used to it after weeks of that nonsense but no, more often than not, she’d be caught off guard. She read the words in the air and sighed. “Only two potions.” she said as she shut  A Collection of Above Three Hundred Receipts in Cookery, Physick, and Surgery. “We are missing three ingridients though.” she sighed again. She was getting hopeless but she also didn’t want to show it to her friend since Madam Pomfrey already gave up on the poor girl. Lily was determined to fix it. Why was she a witch if she couldn’t heal her own friend’s hearing? “Come on. We need to break into Slughorn’s, again.” she rolled her eyes. She couldn’t believe how usual this has gotten for her ever since the two of them were trying to find a cure by themselves.

the words Lily spoke sprawled through the air with delicate strokes. It was the one things Mary loved about this quill. she could get lost watching it move. One good thing with about a million bad things connected to it. “Two potions huh?” she asked trying not to put much hope into her words. She had tried so many things and nothing had worked. If not for Lily she probably would have given up by now. As much as she wanted her hearing back, it was getting rough trying to find a way. Madam Pomfrey had thought she found a way, even before Mary had left the hospital wing but it had failed. Though she had complete faith if anyone could find it, it would be Lily. “Again?” She asked with a sigh. As much as she loved when Lily broke the rules for her, it was getting kind of tedious. Sooner or Later they were going to get caught by the professor. “Let’s just take a shit ton of stuff and cover all the bases. that way we don’t have to go back when this doesn’t work.” she said feeling more pessimistic then usual.

A groan escaped the brunette. She had been reading her transfiguration book for hours. Her eyes hurt from the strain of trying to comprehend the words in front of her. She still didn’t understand the days lesson any better. She tossed the book across the room as irritation flooded her. She was done trying to study, hopefully Lily was too. she flicked her wrist and send her magical quill to life. She tilted her head up to look at her friend who sat on her bed. “I am so bored. Have you found anything interesting?”

Can you hear my apology || Jary

When Mary MacDonald was at the hospital wing, James Potter spent a lot of time by her side. Not when she was awake, never when she was awake. But he had been there with his useless apologies which meant nothing, the useless apologies she couldn’t even hear anymore. And once she was finally allowed to return to school, he spent the majority of him time avoiding her, trying to figure out the best way to go and talk to her but nothing really came out of it because there was no good way to do this and what he had succeeded in was only to waste a whole lot of time. Late that evening when the common room was almost empty and Mary sat alone by the fire, James finally found the courage to go and talk apologize to her. “Mary.” he mumbled as he sat down next to her, taking her hand in the hopes of making his presence known to her.

Mary couldn’t sleep. Sleep hadn’t really been coming to her much since she left the hospital wing, she couldn’t really explain it. she wasn’t scared or traumatized, she just couldn’t sleep well with the silence. Lately she had begun picking up new hobbies. She tried drawing but she just didn’t have the skill to make something out of nothing so that night she was reading. Strangely enough a book not for school was actually keeping her attention. she had curled up in a chair by the fire, letting the heat warm her as her eyes devoured the words in front of her. She was so caught up and invested she didn’t notice the movement near her. When a calloused masculine hand gripped hers she jumped slightly, dropping her book in her lap. “James.” She said with a surprised smile. She had seen James several time since she woke up, but only through like crowded classrooms, never this up close and personal. She held up a hand before his lips started moving and she would irrevocably end up missing what she hoped would be a stimulating conversation. She riffle through her bag and pulled out the quill she had charmed, some parchment, and her wand. with a flick of her wrist the quill and parchment sprang to life. “You can speak now, sorry about that...”

Immediately, Remus’ smile fell when Mary looked confused at the words on his board, even upset. Did she not feel them back? His own worries hit him first, unsure what to do. He didn’t want to upset her. Instead of saying or doing anything, Remus sat still and waited for the girl’s scribbled words before crawling over to her. On his knees, he cupped her cheeks, her head tipping up as Remus looked down the girl. “Mary, I love you,” he said softly, hoping she’d understand his words he’d swear were truth. Gently he let go of her cheeks and sat down in front of her, pushing back a strand of her hair. Afterwards, he handed the female the parchment before adding, “I’m sorry you can’t hear my words but I’m not lying to you about them. I really do love you.”

Mary watched with intense eyes as Remus came closer to her. Her breath hitched in her chest when his hands cupped her face. She could feel his skin against hers, she could feel his warm breath against her face as he spoke. This had to be real. It had to be... She wished she could hear him say the words, those three little words any girl wanted to hear from a boy she fancied. He let go of her face a little too quickly for Mary’s liking. She wanted him to keep touching her like that, to be close to her. She could feel the tears drying up on her face as she read the parchment he handed her. She didn’t even read it before she launched herself across the empty space between them, entwining her arms behind his neck and pressing her lips against his. She tried to put all of her love and admiration into that kiss. She wanted to convey everything she had been feeling since they broke up into that single kiss, just in case she never got the chance to do it again. “I love you.” She said running her fingers through the hair at the base of his neck, only pulling back enough to speak. Forgetting again that he couldn’t hear her through the ear plugs. “I fucking love you, you idiot.”

He couldn’t help but smile when he read the words off her chalkboard. His eyes met hers for a moment, taking note of her facial expression and memorizing it. He quickly scribbled something down on his board, smiling as the words he has never uttered stare at him. Quickly, Remus stole a glance at Mary, his grin widening. He had to tell her. If she rejected him, he would deal with it. Slowly, he turned around his board, revealing the three little words that he had felt ever since 5th year. “I love you,” he said, grinning at Mary as she read the words he spoke.

Mary couldn’t help but lower her gaze as Remus stared at her. It felt intimate and she was still struggling to put all that behind her. she lifted her gaze just once it was difficult to refuse herself this. Soon enough she’d be back to using that parchment and she’d miss being able to look at him and converse. It was amazing the things you took for granted when you had them. She fidgeted with the purple chalk in her hands as she waited for Remus to turn his board around, wondering what the boy would like to talk about now. She had not expected those...words. The smile that had been plastered on her face, fell. Her brows knit together in confusion and for a second she thought she had died and this was all just some weird sort of hell. “WHAT?!?” She said, her eyes filling up with tears before she remembered he couldn’t hear her because of those stupid ear plugs. She scribbled furiously on her board, trying not to cry. ‘Is this real?’ Her board read as she whipped it around for him. She had no other words. Maybe this was hell. Remus was finally saying what she wanted only she couldn’t hear it with her own ears.

Marlene crossed her arms, giving her friend a stern look, something Marlene was not known for. “Mare, you literally just got out of the Hospital Wing, and I’m not going to have you back in there in less than twenty-four hours. And if he were here, Mason would agree, or kill me if I let you do anything but go back to the dorm.” She said firmly, though she knew her tone didn’t carry over to the parchment. “I’ll get answers myself. Plus, my mum sent you a fucking congratulations basket and if you don’t get to it, I’m pretty sure Lily’s going to eat it for you.”

Marlene’s firm gaze might have made a lesser girl back down but Mary actually missed it while she was reading her friends words. “I’m not some breakable thing Marlene, and I’m not about to back down from things just because I got hurt. You should know me better then that.” She said with a sigh. “I JUST WANT TO BE USEFUL!” She shouted, all the pent up feelings exploding out of her.

He grinned at the girl, unsure what she was saying after he put the ear plugs in. After sensing her confusion, he spoke, picking up one of the chalkboards off the floor. “I can’t hear you, Mary. You’re going to have to write to me,” he said with a smile, handing the raven haired girl a piece of chalk along with the other chalkboard. Once she took hold of these items, Remus scribbled ‘hello” with a smiley face next to it on his and held it up for Mary to see, smiling brightly.

Mary laughed as she grasped the chalk and chalk board from Remus. It was such a small thing but it felt like the world to her. she bit her lips as she read the word Remus had scribbled on his chalkboard. His smiley face was lopsided but it was the prettiest thing Mary had seen in a while. She scribbled on her board, her hand writing precise and neat. As she turned it around she made a face at the boy seated beside her. ‘You are a dork...’ It read and underneath a bit smaller. ‘And I love it.’

It was obvious that Mary had failed to read his lips and a very slight frown appeared on his face. He can tell it frustrated Mary more though and he watched her go back to reading from the parchment.So this was how it was going to be for now on… Remus had to get on board or pursuing Mary and he knew he wasn’t going to do the latter. So he put on a brave face and intertwined their fingers together as they headed to the room of requirement. “I like your thinking. Let’s save that one for next time,” he smiled at her, watching her read the magical paper before stepping inside the room. The room itself was rather cozy, a fireplace set up in the back of the room with lots of furniture lying around.  On the carpet near the fireplace laid chalk boards, chalk, parchment, feathers and ear plugs. Remus laughed a bit when he spotted them, picking them up to shove into his ears. “I was thinking if there was a way I could make you feel normal … Looks like the room has a sense of humor.”

Mary hated this. She wanted to be able to look into someone’s face when they spoke to her, she especially wanted to look into Remus’. She liked the way his eyes lite up when he laughed. If she couldn’t hear his laugh she at least wanted to be able to see it, but with this solution to her hearing problem that was just as improbable as him... beat someone to death. She didn’t take her eyes off the parchment again, even as Remus laced his fingers with hers. He was so warm and welcoming. Her grip tightened slightly on his hand as the stalked down the hall towards the come and go room. She laughed loudly, unable to tell just how loud she was. At least his sense of humor towards her bad ideas hadn’t changed. Mary wasn’t sure what she had been expecting when they walked into the room, but it certainly wasn’t this. The fireplace was warming the entire room, and a pang of disappointment rocked through her at the thought that she’d never hear it crackle. she turned her gaze away from the dancing flames and focused instead on the things in front of the fireplace. her eyes darting back and forth between the parchment just to make sure she didn’t miss a word Remus had said. She ignored most everything else when she saw the feathers. confusion on her face. she picked one up and glanced back towards the parchment, seeing out of the corner of her sight as Remus put in a pair of the earplugs. What the hell? Her eyes scanned the parchment and she smiled sweetly. “What are you doing?” She asked not sure if the earplugs would cancel out every sound she made. “Can you still hear me?” she asked waving one of the feathers in his face.

He watched her talk to the parchment with a slight frown. Were they destined to forever talk so out of sync with one another? He still could enjoy the sound of her voice but they missed the connection of the conversation for her eyes glued themselves onto the paper that would write down the words he spoke. His hand gave hers a squeeze before tugging on her arm slightly, trying to get her attention. When she did look his way, he smiled. “It’s okay,” he said slowly and pronounced his words dramatically so she could read his lips. If only he could do something for her, something that could repair her hearing or make life easier for her. “C’mon, let’s go,” he said, leading the way to the room of requirement. There in that room – it must conjure up something useful, no?

Mary didn’t want to miss a thing, not a single word or expression, but she was now stuck in a world where she had to miss one or the other. There was no way around it now, and as much as she wanted to watch his expressions they would mean nothing without the words that went with them. So she watched the parchment and waited for him to treat her like... something else. She felt the boy squeezing her hand and waited expectantly for his words to pop up in front of her eyes. She finally tore her eyes off the page when he pulled on her arm. Her attention on his heart-melting smile, his lips moved and her brain worked overtime trying to understand what he was saying to her. For a moment she thought he said something about an acorn but that made no sense in this situation. It just made her feel even more agitated  Her brows furrowed and a frown touched her lips for a moment before he started to drag her down the hall. “Let’s do something fun, I think we could both use it.” She said with a shrug of her shoulders as she tried to put on a brave face. Her voice soothing and calm. “We should have started a food fight in the great hall or something..” She teased.

“Good,” he grinned at the girl, taking her hand in his. It was a brave move, he’d admit, but after all that has happened, Remus was going to be less scared of things like hand holding. If the incident taught the boy anything it was that time is fleeting and he wasn’t going to lose Mary without having her know how much he cared for her. He looked back at the raven haired girl, offering a small smile as he led them to the secret room. “How are you feeling today?”

Since leaving the hospital wing Mary felt like people were treating her differently, no it wasn’t just a feeling. she knew people were treating her like she was some breakable thing. And it annoyed her to no end. She just longed for some normalcy, but when Remus took her hand in his she decided normalcy was over rated. She stared down at their hands intertwined and missed the fact that his lips were moving. It wasn’t until he looked at her expectantly that her eyes went back to the magical parchment floating at her side, but his words faded away. “I’m so sorry,” she muttered feeling foolish that she had missed his words. she couldn’t help but feel a whole in her chest at the loss she suffered no longer being able to keep conversations like she use to. “I don’t know what you just said. The parchment is useful but I haven’t found a way to keep the words around for longer then a few seconds...” She explained her gaze locked on the parchment. There was so much she could miss, just trying to have a conversation with someone and it was irritating.

Mary hadn't expected to run into Remus in all the chaos. At least while she was looking at the parchment spelling out his words she wouldn't have to look directly at him. "Yes." She said despite herself. She shouldn't want to be around him right now. "Let's get you away from anyone who might want to know your deep dark secrets." She teased to off set what she felt like was a desperate plea to spend time with him.

That day at Potions, Stefan sat at the front of the class by Lennox’ side as usual, flipping the pages of his book absently not exactly sure which potion they were to be starting today. It didn’t matter which though, he was perfectly capable of brewing every one of the potions listed there, even a few beyond NEWT levels. He looking up from his book as Slughorn began to speak, turning to his girlfriend and rolling his eyes when he said they were going to have to switch partners.

Stefan’s luck had been pretty rotten the past few weeks and it seemed nothing had changed yet because of all the people he could possibly be paired with, it was Mary MacDonald who was picked to be his partner. He had had a bad enough day at Hogsmeade, trying to put up with her and here he was again having to endure another hour. Lennox grumbled something and took off, and Stefan searched the room for he dark haired girl, a smirk growing on his lips when he spotted her. He knew exactly how much she hated potions and he knew, despite everything else, this was going to turn out to be hilarious. “Like what?” he questioned, looking obviously amused as she took the seat which Lennox had just vacated. “Like I am going to enjoy watching you fuck shit up more than humanely possible?”

Spending that day with him in Hogsmead had been, tough to say the least, but at least she had the possibility of being a little tipsy. Now she was cold stone sober and dealing with his smug face was a bit more then she really wanted to deal with. His biting words as she sat down didn’t exactly help things. She had to fight the urge to wipe that smile off his face.... with her fist. “Bite me.” she said between her gritted teeth as she unpacked her potions stuff. Second hand cauldron since James blew up her last one, and a tattered potions book that had almost fallen apart when she tossed it at the wall last week. “I’m not going to fuck up, if only to spite you. So you can get your jollies off somewhere else, jackass.”

Marlene quickly spun when someone grabbed a hold of her. She hadn’t known Mary was out of the Hospital wing, but it was not a relief in this situation. Any other time, she would have hugged the girl and welcomed her back, wondering if she wanted to have a drink, but there wasn’t time for small chat. “Someone spiked dinner with veritaserum. If I were you, I’d put the quill away and get back to the dorm without anyone asking questions.” The blonde said, taking her friend’s arm and pulling her towards the exit of the great hall. If she could make sure Mary was safe first, then she could go off and use this incident to her own advantage.

If this was a different time Mary might have been appreciative of her friends protectiveness but everyone had been treating her like she was some breakable thing since she had woken up in the hospital wing. she was sick of it. “Hell no. I don’t have any secrets Marlene, at least not any that will ruin lives.” she said thinking about Remus. As much as she would hate for that to get out it wasn’t important considering what Mary thought Marlene was going to do. she knew what a situation like this would mean to the girl. “Let’s use this to get some answers about Mason.”

“Mary!” Lily exclaimed upon seeing her friend. She didn’t know she was supposed to leave the hospital wing today but she was glad nonetheless. She gave a hug to her before anything else. She had so much to say yet she knew it was useless since Mary couldn’t hear a word she would speak so she pulled back with a sigh and read the words in the air. “Someone spiked the drinks and put Veritaserum in it.” Lily explained, waiting for the quill to finish writing. “It’s an awful thing to say but Mary, you may have gotten hurt at the perfect time for this to happen.” she said with an apologetic smile. “You can’t answer if you don’t hear them.” That was a bit dark sense of humor for her. “All students are to go to their respective common rooms. Go now, I’ll meet you there.” she said with a smile and left so she could get other students in order. *** When Lily was back, her first mission was to find Mary. “Hi there.” she said, waving her hand. She waited for Mary to took out her charmed quill. “It was a mess down there.” she shook her head. “How are you holding up, Mary. We were really worried.”

Mary let out a small gasp when Lily wrapped her arms around the girl for a quick hug. Amid all the chaos that seemed to be going on- a hug was the last thing Mary had expected. As soon as Lily had pulled back, Mary’s eyes were drawn to the floating parchment beside her, writing Lily’s words as she spoke them. “Veritaserum?” she said sounding astonished and appalled, but it quickly passed as she took in the dark joke her dorm mate made. she couldn’t believe she had said something like that to Mary. It should have infuriated the girl but she was just glad that Lily wasn’t treating her like some sort of invalid. “Okay, see you up there.” Mary said turning to make her way up to the common room. She snatched her charmed parchment out of the air, so no one could ask her any questions on the way up.

***

Mary picked a seat in the far corner, She felt consumed by the silence and jumped a mile in the air as Lily waved a hand in her face. With a wave of her wand the Quill came to life. “I bet it’s crazy everywhere. I mean people basically have free reign of getting all their questions answered.” She said thinking about Remus for a moment. She had some questions for him but didn’t dare seek him out. “I’m not fine,” she admitted despite herself. well fuck, apparently even reading a question would make her answer it truthfully. “but I’m trying to be. I just don’t really want to talk about it. I’m more interested in what you’ve been up to... and how James is doing. I haven’t seen him much.”
