The group of Gryffindor students walked down the path towards the Quidditch pitch for the game between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. Estella was laughing loudly as Marlene and Dorcas linked arms and skipped along, almost tripping over their own feet.

They all made their way up the stands to the front so they would have a clear view. The crimson side roared as their team flew out onto the pitch and all Estella could feel was jealously.

She missed the cheers for her and the Scottish winds hitting her face making her hair flow behind her.

Both the crimson and navy blue crowd watched with anticipation as the players flew around swiftly in the air, going upside down drying to ridge the bludgers aimed at them.

The Gryffindor roared as James scored yet another goal for his team. And whilst the crowd screamed his name, he flew closer so Estella could see the proud smirk on his face.

Ravenclaw soon began to catch up and it seemed like they could beat Gryffindor; until the red player caught the golden snitch, ending the game and winning it for Gryffindor.

Sirius was singing loudly as the group followed the crowd from the stands, but as they walked along Mcgongall stopped Estella.

"Miss Lupin," Estella paused to think about all the things she could of gotten into trouble about. But she was taken back when the Professor held out a Gryffindor quidditch jersey.

At first she thought it was her old one, but her old jersey was at home in Yorkshire. "I believe this is for you, Miss Lupin." The crimson jersey had her number on as well as "Lupin" in gold writing.

"Professor?" She asked with furrowed eyebrows. "We need to win the Quidditch cup this year. I believe it can't be done without one of the best players Hogwarts has seen."

A wide smile grew on her face as she accepted the jersey. Her dark eyes then fell upon James who was standing behind the teacher with a smile.

"Thank you Professor." Mcgonagall nodded before following the path back to the castle. Estella shook her head and smirked at the arrogant boy in front of her.

"What did you do?" She asked, walking towards the boy. "I put in some good words." He replied as he leaned on a wooden beam. "Why? You won the prank war." She pointed out, her arms crossed.

"So you'd be in debt to me obviously." James smirked which made her roll her eyes. "And what do I need to get out of debt?" She asked with a mischievous smirk, the crowds disappearing leaving them alone.

"I haven't decided just yet." Estella scoffed and shook her head. "There you two are! Hurry, we're off to celebrate!" Sirius shouted at the pair.

The sun had began to fall behind the surrounding wall of mountains as the Lupin twins walked down the hallways of the castle.

But as they turned the corner, they scoffed at the sight of Lucius Malfoy and Severus Snape. "Aw, look at the Looney Lupins!" Malfoy hissed loudly, followed by his arrogant laugh.

"Fuck off Malfoy." She ordered sharply. "Or what?" The blond asked with raised eyebrows. "Estella, leave the pricks alone." Remus said which made the two stare at him.

"Careful. Wouldn't want that freak to touch you. Might get a disease." Snape snickered, his greasy hair shining in the candle light.

"Maybe daddy would finally like you if you weren't covered in those freaky scars. Don't you think Looney Lupin?" Malfoy laughed.

Estella's face burnt up ad she grinded her teeth together. Suddenly, she gripped onto his hair and dragged him to the floor. A loud thud echoed though the corridor soon followed by his cries as she continuously forced her shoe into his face.

"Estella!" Remus shouted as the Slytherin's face bled and went purple.

James, who was sent by Sirius to find Remus, heard the shouts and followed them down to that hallway. He couldn't help but be impressed by the sight of her beating the boy to a pulp but Remus was frantically trying to pull her away.

The Gryffindor boy hurried over and wrapped his arms around her so that he could drag her away. "You deserved that for being a cunt." Remus hissed before leaving the bleeding Slytherin.

James had dragged Estella out into the courtyard of the school. "Your lip. It's bleeding." Estella pressed her thumb on her lip before inspecting the ruby red blood. Lucius must of gotten a hit in but she hadn't noticed.

James let out a huff as she moved to lean on the stone wall. "You're a smart girl. So why do you do shit like that?" James asked as he pushed up his round glasses.

"Don't lecture me Potter." She ordered with a sharp hiss. "I'm just looking out for you." He stated as he got up and moved towards her. "You might get kicked off the team now."

"Then maybe you shouldn't of gotten me onto it!" She shouted, her face red with fury still. "You wanted me to!" James shouted back.

Before Estella could say another word, he pushed his arm beside her, pinning her against the wall. She feel silent as she felt his hot breath on her skin.

Slowly their faces got closer and closer. "Estella," He whispered as he stared at her rosey lips. "Shut up." Estella ordered before grasping onto his shirt and pulling him closer until their lips touched.

Their bodies curved together, like they fit together perfectly, as they gasped for air before slamming their lips together again. His hands moved to be grasping her waist as she played with his messy hair.

James then began to trail kisses along her jawline and down her neck which made take on short gasps of air. "James," He hummed. "James," She repeated.

"Get your words out, darling." He smirked as he stared into her dark eyes. "We shouldn't." He stood up straight with a confused look on his face. "Remus would-

"Oh fuck, Remus." James realised. A silence fell between them. Estella rubbed the back of her neck before clearing her throat. "I better head back before McGonagall comes looking for me."

But as she walked away, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back into his chest. "What he doesn't know won't kill him." Estella smirked. "No, if he does know, he would kill us."

The pair chuckled. James smirked at her red cheeks. "You're cute when you're flustered." He complimented with a grin. "Oh shut it." She laughed. "But seriously, that was it. I'll never happen again."
