Song:
Stop The World I Wanna Get Off With You (Arctic Monkeys)
"With the exception of you I dislike everyone in the room. And I don't wanna lie, but I don't wanna tell you the truth."

Remus woke up with a pounding ache on his head, events of the previous night coming back to him one after the other. He didn't drink often, but when he did, it was a lot. It was a miracle how he hadn't forgotten everything about his best mate's birthday with the amount of fire whiskey he had consumed. He glanced next to him, the sleeping figure of Callisto making a small smile creep up on his lips.

Her beige dress was crumpled from sleeping in it all night, the heavy blankets covering her legs that were tangled with his own. Her blonde hair was still curly, but not as fresh as it had looked the previous night and laid messily around her face and on the pillow. Her pink lips were slightly open and her eyes were closed, black makeup smudged around them.

"Stop looking at me, creep." Callisto murmured, her lips curling into a smirk. "Caught you."

"Lies." He smiled, watching as she rubbed her eyes, smudging her makeup even further.

"Okay then." She sighed, motioning to get up. Remus immediately caught her arm, pulling her back down next to him. Her breath hitched in her throat as she felt his arm wrapping around her waist, holding her close to him.

"What's that for?"

"I stayed, so now you have to do the same." Remus stated. "It's only fair."

"Not my fault you were too smitten to leave."

"On second thought, bye Claire!" Remus sighed, shaking his head. "Do y-"

"Pepper up potion?" He shook his head in agreement. Callisto pulled up her dress slightly, revealing a small pouch strapped to her thigh. Remus tried to avert his gaze from her legs, feeling his cheeks heat up. He could remember all the times he had run his hands over the soft skin, gripping and leaving small marks that wouldn't fade for days.

Merlin, it was too early for this.

"Hold this." She mumbled, pulling out a hairbrush. Another hairbrush got pulled out, followed by a pack of cigarettes, lipstick, gum, a knife, a hair clip, a teddy bear and a few vials filled with potions.

"Wound cleaning solution? What for?"

"You think yesterday's party was wild, Rem?" Callisto laughed, watching as he downed the Pepper-Up potion. "It was a lot of fun, but on a scale from 1 to 10 with 1 being very tame and 10 being batshit wild, that party was a generous 6."

"A six, huh?" Remus teased. "Well, excuse me for not commiting murder during a party, Listo. Won't happen again."

"There's no murder!" Callisto answered, although a bit unsure. "Durmstrang parties are just very different. I mean, there is not that much illegal shit going around. The bathroom is actually quite decent and nobody is undressing on top of tables."
