"It's three in the morning and all I want is your lips on mine. It's the same as yesterday at dinner, and last Thursday at noon."
"You need to stop."
"It's the same as every hour, every minute, every second since I've met you."

THERE WAS A SILENCE BETWEEN THE two sixth years, Sebastian not quite sure if he understood what she was saying. Her hand was still in his and neither made a move to untangle their fingers.
"So let me get this straight," the boy said, taking a step towards her, she stayed still, "you want to act like we're together? Like we're happily engaged and can't wait to get married?" he asked, receiving a nod in return, "even though practically the whole of Hogwarts knows that you despise me and everything the Sacred Twenty Eight believes in?"
"Correct," Lora nodded, "when we're together in the public eye we act lovey dovey, as though we couldn't get enough of each other, but in private we figure out a way to get out of the marriage," she explained, "I know that you want to be with me, and genuinely I do think that you're a great guy despite the beliefs that got forced into your brain, but I can never see myself staying in the pureblood lifestyle, it's done more harm than good to me my entire life," she told him, grabbing his other hand in hers and looking up at him with a pleading expression.
Sebastian stared between her eyes, going back and forth between them before he finally sighed, "fine," he agreed, causing a smile to slowly take over her features, "but if we're acting like a happy couple than we're diving head first into it," he told her, lifting their hands and using his finger to point at her, "which means that if I kiss you then you can't slap me afterwards and you can't give Black longing glances."
Lora nodded at his terms before adding hers, "then you can't be mean to my friends or hurt younger students," she said pointing right back at him, making him nod, "but also, try not to kiss me right away please. I know that my lips are pretty irresistible but I just caught my boyfriend cheating on me."
Sebastian laughed at the request, finding it funny that she actually thought he was the type of guy to kiss her right after breaking up with someone else, "don't worry, I wasn't planning on it," he told her.
"Thank you," she smiled softly.
"So what should I call you? Lora? Lee? Love?"

A couple weeks had passed, Lora and Sebastian making sure to keep appearances up any chance they could, which was a lot apparently, considering that Marlene had taken it upon herself to mark a week on Loralie's calendar of "Lora time".
