Small fact:
Being friends with Pandora was the weirdest thing Regulus ever experienced because it was the first time he had felt loved and cared for, he never knew what love felt like. (Platonic in this situation)
This began all over again when he fell in love with Diana, because that love was different.
When she arrived, he was already there. She looked around the room confused, it looked different from what they normally had.
Sure, there was a fireplace and a comfortable couch in front of it, but there where only two bookcases to the side of the room.
The room was also smaller then normal. Regulus was at the end of the room, there was a window there.
By the window stood a comfortabel looking bed, where Regulus sat, reading a book he had taken from the sides of the bed, where small bookcases decorated it.
He looked up at the sound of the door opening and smiled at her.
"It looks different," She spoke and he shrugged. "I was rather tired when I arrived, I think the room supposed I needed a bed." He joked making a giddy smile appear on her face.
She walked over to the bed and also climbed onto it, laying down and relaxing for a moment. A few seconds later she kicked off her shoes and climbed further on.
Diana closed her eyes and felt Regulus' arms around her waist, pulling her towards him. She mumbled something inaudible among the lines of "I love you," Making him mumble it back.
They laid there for a long while, both not wanting to get up because they where to comfortable.
"Barty wanted you to come over this evening." Regulus eventually grumbled. "Said he wanted to see you." He didn't seem all to happy to remember it, having rather stayed in the room for the remaining of the night.
"Guess we'll have to go then." She whispered, slowly starting to get up and dragging Regulus with her, even though he was protesting.
As she walked to the door, he stopped her by grabbing her waist and pulling her towards him, leaving small kisses in the crook of her neck.
"Come in, Reggie, we can't stay here all night." She whispered, making him sigh, before kissing her cheek and letting her go.
The two of them walked to the Slytherin common room with their hands locked together. They let go of each other when walking inside, not wanting any rumours to spread as they had already been a bit to obvious at the party.
When they entered the dorm, everyone was there, Barty laid on his bed diagonally, his head upside down and he grinned in satisfaction when he saw the two of them enter.
Dorcas and Pandora had occupied Evans bed and Evan sat beside Barty on the ground.
"Kitty!" Barty said happily, standing up to make his way to Diana. "Hey, pause," Evan said a bit irritated. "I'm completely fine with the babe or baby thing, but this is going a bit to far." He stated.
He got an "agreed." From Regulus who was glaring daggers at Barty. "What- no, that's not what I meant- Diana come on, do it again!" He pleaded and she grinned before turning into a cat, leaving Evan and Regulus speechless.
Barty happily picked her up and showed her off. "Isn't she cute?" He held her in front of Regulus' face who took her from him.
"Since when could you do that?" He asked, rather upset she hadn't told him. "Oh, just since a few days, we're the only ones that know, she just wanted to wait a while before telling." Pandora explained.
"Yeah, I mean, me and Barty found out on accident, and she needed Dora to help her with the potion." Dorcas explained.
Diana let out a small miauw and Regulus couldn't help but smile -which caused Barty to make a huge deal out of it, as he didn't smile to much- and Diana purred as he petted her slightly.

It was night and Diana sneaked trough the castle with James, Sirius and Peter, all on their way to the shrieking shack where Remus was currently waiting for them.
"Alright, so when we get there, Peter will-" James started explaining and Diana interrupted him. "Push the button, then we transform and get inside and we'll be with Remus, if he has a bad reaction to me I leave, otherwise it's all fine." She finished, as James had said it about one hundred times.
"Yes, right." James nodded and they carried on walking as they listened to Sirius complaining about some girl that was all over him at the moment, making Peter and Diana share a look before both rolling their eyes.
When they got outside, Sirius immediately became a dog and ran of, making James do the same and chase him around.
"Morons." Diana shook her head while Peter just laughed and cheered on James.
When they arrived Diana changed to a cat while Peter turned into a rat and ran of towards the tree.
When it stopped moving, the cat, the dog and the stag quickly made their way to the entrance and entered the long path that led to the shrieking shack.
"Stay behind me, Diana." James said, making her feel rather weirded out as he didn't really say it but more as thought it, making her question how that worked.
She followed James and they eventually entered a room that seemed empty -appart from a bed- at first, before she noticed the big wolf that was resting in the corner.
"He seems rather calm today, d'you suppose we could go outside?" Sirius looked at James who looked at Diana. "Not today, not with Diana here, maybe next time but let's get her used to this at first." He answered.
She wanted to protest, but on the other side, he was right.
So just like that, they spent the night mostly hanging around while Remus just sat in the corner watching them.
He did get up at one point and approached Diana, making James get to his feet, ready to step in.
Remus sniffed Diana for a moment, circled her, sniffed her again and then let out a howl.
She was gobsmacked and looked over to James and Sirius. "Don't mind him, he's a bit weird sometimes." Sirius said.
Remus proceeded to turn around and look at Sirius as if he had heard him.
The remaining of the night continued smoothly and when the first daylight arrived, James announced that they had to leave as otherwise Madam Pomfrey, who came to collect Remus, would run into them.
They of course, visited him in the hospital wing the next morning.
I just want to say that it's rather difficult to write about how those nights go where Remus is a werewolf, so I'll mostly avoid writing about those.
Except for one specific night... I need to want you that it's coming... and it's going to be bad.
