they say eucalyptus deglupta is the rarest thing on earth. remus lupin wholeheartedly disagrees; the rarest thing in the world would be quiet evenings when sirius black and james potter are your friends.
every day there would either be a slytherin with a new hair color or him having to shoo away broken hearted girls from their dorm. but this day, this once in a blue moon day, was quiet.
so he decided to spend it with his two favourite girls, lily evans and ophelia greengrass. he and lily often hung out, much to james' dismay, but it was rare with ophelia. the three of them were in an abandoned classroom in a hallway no one goes to because if someone did spot them together, well let's just say that and mr and mrs greengrass wouldn't be too happy when they find out their perfect daughter is friends with a muggleborn and half-blood.
"so, how are you and regulus?" lily says, sipping the tea that ophelia made minutes prior. that said blonde girl couldn't help but smile at the mere mention of the boy, and the two gryffindors noticed it.
"i don't know," she lets out a chuckle as she tucked a hair behind her ear. "i like how honest i am with him and how i can be myself around him. i really don't know how to explain," she said after pausing. "but enough about me though, remus you mentioned you have news?"
the lycanthrope blushed at ophelia's mere words and the two girls look at him curiously. "well, you see, uhm," lily nor ophelia had ever seen him this nervous, not even when he told them he was a werewolf. "mark, the 7th year ravenclaw, asked me on a date! this saturday!"
lily let out a happy sound as she wrapped her arms around remus' shoulder whilst ophelia's smile fell. she wanted to tell him, she really did, but then remus looked at her. and, merlin, the look on his face broke ophelia. he was so happy that she couldn't bear to ruin it. so she smiled at side-hugged him as well.
it would be later that day when she thought about it once more. a few minutes before their rounds, ophelia lied on the couch while her head rested on regulus' lap.
"hey, art, can i ask your opinion on something?" regulus, who was playing with her hair, lets out a hum in agreement. ophelia nods before she speaks, "so let us say a friend of yours was asked out by the douche-est person you will ever meet. like douche times douche, type of douche, you know? but then they are so happy to have this douche person ask them out but you know that douche person is gonna hurt them. what would you do?"
"well," regulus starts, evaluating the situation. "i suppose it depends. it depends if i know my friend would be able to handle me telling them the truth or handle the heartbreak this douche would give them. it can also depend on how i feel if the roles were reversed." he said. "why? who is the friend and douche person anyways?"
ophelia hesitates before speaking again, "remus and mark hannagan."
"hannagan?! wasn't he the reason why mulciber was forced to come out?"
