Sure, Peter is friends with Sirius Black, James Potter and Remus Lupin but oddly enough he never felt apart of the group. He always felt distanced, the group always looked so close while Peter was the one following behind them and not getting any of the inside jokes. Peter was the one nobody would tell plans to unless he asked because they ‘assumed he didn’t want to go.’

And after a bit of this happening, Peter gave up and stopped asking. He stopped asking to be included, and he truly realized the group didn’t care as much about Peter as they did about themselves. Now, Peter sits silently in the common room while the rest are out doing something, probably walking around and causing mischief.

Peter reads silently on the dark red couch in front of the fireplace, his knees pulled up to his chest as his one arm is wrapped around his legs. He’s the only one in the common room, every other Gryffindor is either sleeping or out, Peter usually doesn’t mind being alone, but lately he’s been alone for to long.
