And why would I know this??

CUZ YOU'RE THE CAPTAIN OF THE FOOTBALL TEAM. DUH!!

No, I'm not. Who is this??

HOW HARD DID LILY HIT YOU OVER THE HEAD THIS TIME??

SHIT!! SORRY MATE, WRONG NUMBER.

It's fine. Don't worry about it.

But how did you get my number exactly??

I MUST HAVE TYPED MY MATES NUMBER IN WRONG. JUST GOT A NEW PHONE YOU SEE.

Ahh. Right. The captain of the football teams number I'll take it??

YUP. I BETTER TEXT HIM AND FIND OUT IF I DO HAVE FOOTY PRACTICE TOMORROW OR NOT.

Alright. Make sure you actually text him this time.

LOL. NO PROMISES.

....Monday - Mid day....

So do you have football practice??

HUH?? OHHH. YEAH, I DO

SO WHAT'S YOUR NAME??

Ha!! Nice try buddy. I don't know you or your name. So why on earth would I tell you mine?? 

I mean, for all I know, you could just be a forty five year old perv.

WELL YOU CAN RELAX ABOUT ME BEING A 45 YEAR OLD PERV CUZ I'M A 16 YEAR OLD GUY.

Same here. But that doesn't stop you possibly being a perv.

FAIR ENOUGH. LOL. HOW ABOUT I TELL YOU MY NAME FIRST THEN??

Hmm....alright. Deal.

GOOD. BUT NO LAUGHING, OKAY??

...Okay??

PROMISE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Okay!! Okay!! I promise.

GOOD.

THE NAME'S SIRIUS BLACK.

Sirius Black....nice name.

REALLY?! THANKS.

MOST PEOPLE LAUGH AT MY NAME. YOU KNOW...CUZ OF SIRIUS AND SERIOUS. 

SO MANY JOKES CAN BE MADE.

Yeah. I like unique names.

I understand why people might do that - although they shouldn't. It is your name after all.

My name is Remus. Remus Lupin

REMUS LUPIN....I LIKE IT.

Thanks.

OH. BTW, MY FRIENDS CALL ME PADFOOT.

Padfoot?? Who came up with that name??

Wait. Don't tell me. You did, right??

I DID, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! 

MY TWO BEST MATES ARE THE ONLY ONES ALLOWED TO CALL ME PADFOOT THO. 

THEY'RE ARE CALLED JAMES AND PETER. BUT THEIR NICKNAMES ARE PRONGS AND WORMTAIL.

Em....okay??

WHAT?? THEY'RE COOL. THE PEOPLE AND THEIR NAMES.

HOW ABOUT I GIVE YOU A NICKNAME??

Lol. Oh god. Go on then.

Does that mean I'm allowed to call you Padfoot??

SURE. YOU SEEM LIKE A TRUST WORTHY GUY.

AND I'D LIKE TO THINK WE'RE ALREADY BECOMING GOOD FRIENDS.

Oh. Thanks. I'd like to think so too.

YES!! 

ANYWAY. TO HELP ME THINK OF A NICKNAME FOR YOU, WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE??

Hmm. Let's see....

I have straight light brown hair with a rather long side fringe. Blue eyes. Pale-ish skin. Four claw scratch scars going across my face. On the skinny side. I'm not that good looking to be honest.

OKAY. 1) DON'T DISS YOURSELF BY SAYING THINGS LIKE YOU'RE NOT GOOD LOOKING.

Just stating a fact.

SHUT IT!! 2) 4 CLAW SCRATCH SCARS?! WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?!

I went to a zoo when I was eleven and some drunk guy pushed me over the rails into the wolves habitat. The zookeepers got me out but the leader of the pack - the alpha - managed to scratch my face and it left some ugly scars.

WHOA!! WELL...I'M NEVER GOING TO A ZOO AGAIN. 

AND I BET THE SCARS DON'T LOOK THAT BAD. SCARS NORMALLY MAKE SOMEONE LOOK HOT.

Ha!! Please. Don't make me laugh.

WELL ANYWAY. I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN I COME UP WITH YOUR NICKNAME

Okay. Speak to you later Sirius.

YEAH. SEE YA REMUS

....Monday - Noon....

Okay. Okay.

Imagine I'm giving you a drum roll.

THANK YOU.

.............MOONY!!!

....Moony??

Hmm.....I like it actually.

OF COURSE YOU LIKE IT. I CAME UP WITH IT.

Lol. Yeah. Sure. That's totally it.

Thank you for the nickname Sirius.
