After saying goodnight to her father, Ana gets ready for bed in her favorite silk pajamas and lays down in her bed. She decides to read some of her book, The Great Gatsby, before drifting off into a deep sleep.

The days fly by, and Ana has really nothing to do since the order doesn't have any more missions for now. She's asleep when she hears a pick on her window.

"Just five more minutes," she mumbles.

Pick, pick, pick

"Jesus, what can you not understand with five more minutes?" She runs to the door and opens it, annoyed to find

"Nothing?"

She looks around the room and sees Ginny and Hermione still sleeping.

Pick, pick, pick

"Mary!" It's you. You've been gone for quite a while now. It's about time.

"Gurrr"

"I know it's not your fault. Go and rest, you look exhausted.".

Ana waits and rips up the letter to find the handwriting of "YES, SPENCER FINALLY".

Dear Ana,

I am so sorry for responding this late, but hey, I'm responding now, so don't come at me. I miss you so much as well. Spending the summer without you and the Weasleys for once was horrible. And wait! Remus Lupin, our fucking seventh-year DADA teacher? Ana, you little naughty girl, you totally have a crush on him, and I know you're going to disagree, but, oh, Ana, no. I'm looking forward to coming and visiting you as soon as possible, and then I'll tell you about this boy that I met the other day. He's so cute.

I love you so much, Ana.

xoxo -S

What? Me having a crush on my former teacher is absolutely disgusting and so not true. Spencer and her theories, and of course she's got another boy. That girl used to attack every boy in school, and it clearly has not changed since. Ana is so happy to soon get to see her best friend and can't wait to tell her all about the order and show her everything.

"Oh, shoot, I need to tell dad!"

Ana quickly puts a robe over her silk pajamas, sprints down the hallway to her father's room, and bursts inside.

"Pup, what are you?"

"Sorry, I forgot how early it was, but I really need to ask you something, and I can't wait".

He sits up in bed "Pup, you're scaring me".

"Oh no, dad, don't be scared. I just wanted to ask if it was fine that my best friend Spencer Cornwall came to visit me here".

"I mean, it's kind of your house too, so why not? When was she planning on coming?"

"I'm not sure, I'll write her a letter though".

"Alright, now I would please like some more sleep; it's 7 a.m".

"Sorry, I'll let you sleep now, and thanks again".

Ana doesn't bother her father anymore, and she shuts the door very quietly. Once she is awake, she cannot fall back asleep, so she quickly drops off her robe in her room and goes down for a cup of tea.

She quietly walks down the stairs, scared to take anyone up, and enters the kitchen.

"Fuck!". Ana quickly covers her mouth.

"Watch your language, Ms. Black".

"Excuse me, you just scared me to death. What are you doing up anyway?"

"I mostly wake up around this time and grab a cup of tea. Would you like a cup?"

"Yes please, it seems from now on we will meet a lot early in the kitchen".

"I never met anyone else in the kitchen so early".

Remus moves behind Ana and gets very near—so near that she can feel his shirt on her lower back. She turns around and looks into his green eyes. She feels a bit intimidated by his tall figure, but also so oddly comfortable. He leans down, which causes a bit of his hair to tickle Anas Face. It lets a shiver run down her spine.

"Excuse me, the kettle is in front of you, Ana, do you mind?"

"Right, sorry". She moves out of the way and watches him make her tea.

"Would you like milk and sugar?"

"2 cubes of sugar, please".

"Coming right up," he says.

Ana takes a seat at the table, waiting for Remus to have her tea ready. About a minute later, Remus walks up to Ana and hands her the tea.

"Thanks".

He takes a seat on the opposite side of Ana and takes a sip of his own tea. Ana can't believe how incredible he just looks with his white shirt and grey sweatpants.

"So what are you up to today?" Ana asks him.

"I'll have to head to the ministry, I have some uh stuff to take care of there".

"Oh, something about the order?" she asks.

"No, um, no, not quite anyway. Look at the time. I'm supposed to be there in 30 minutes, so I'll go get ready. Excuse me".

Ana is very confused by his behavior. Why won't he tell her why he has to go to the ministry and why is he just suddenly leaving?

"Oh, and by the way, those are some nice pajamas you've got there".

Ana quickly looks down her body and realizes that she is wearing her short and black silk pajamas. How embarrassing, but before she can think about it, he has already exited the kitchen.

"Thanks for the tea," she whispers.

Ana is left a little confused about his behavior but understands that he can't and, of course, doesn't have to tell her everything. Overall, they don't know each other that well.

Ana drinks up her tea and heads back upstairs to get ready for the day. Back in her room, she takes a quick shower, applies some makeup, puts on some jeans, a black tight top, and finishes up the look with a cute hairstyle, hoop earrings, and favorite over-the-knee high heels.

She is about to be finished with getting ready when Kreacher screams something.

Ana quickly heads down the stairs to see what he has this time and lets out a scream, although this is a happy one.

SPENCE!
