"It sounds like a French Bella."

     "Vulpecula —"

     James Potter didn't even get to finish his sentence when Vulpecula Black snapped her head towards him with a glare as she heard his call.

     James rose his hands in the air in a fake surrendering fashion as he sat down next to Peter. "Whoa, sorry. Not my fault your parents had to name you after stars."

     "Technically, my and Regulus' name are stars while hers is a constellation. " said Sirius.

     Vulpecula rolled her eyes, "What do you want?"

     "Well — Vela — I just wanted to ask where my future wife a.k.a. Lily Evans at."

     "Yeah, I was wondering where is Marlene too." said Sirius, turning to Vela as well.

     "It's not my job to fill you intel about my best friends." she said as she grabbed a grape and popped it in her mouth. "But if you must know, they got breakfast early and headed to Herbology. They had to do something for Professor Sprout."

     The two men nodded and they continued on eating their breakfast in silence, only occasionally having small talk. The four of them looked up though as Remus arrived. His hair was a mess — yet, Vela could not remember a time it was brushed — and he looked like he still wanted to sleep but nevertheless, still looked sexy — at least to Vela's eyes.

     "Good morning, Moony." said Vela with a smirk, eyeing Remus as he sat down next to Peter.

     "Not now, Vela." he grumbled.

     "Oh, I love it when you say that. It sounds like a French Bella." she said, faking a flirtatious tone making James laugh out loud but was ignored by Remus who only piled his plate with sausages in silence.

     Sirius faked gagged. "Can you not in-front of me? It feels weird seeing your twin flirt."

     Vela and James laughed while Remus only rolled his eyes. Vela and Remus never takes these things seriously. Remus knows that Vela is just messing with him like always. And Vela just loves his face when he's pissed — she found it oddly adorable.

     "I still don't get it though —"

     Vela, Sirius, James and Remus expressions changed in a flash and all groaned exasperatedly — James even mumbling curse words — as they knew what Peter was going to ask.

     "If you're twins, how come you don't look alike?"

     "For the very last time, Wormtail," said Sirius through gritted teeth after a sigh. "We are fraternal twins. Meaning we were in the same womb, at the same time and given birth at the same date making us twins. But we don't have to look a like to be twins. That's why it is called fraternal."

     "And I swear, if you ask one more time I will fucking —"

     Sirius hurriedly cupped his hands to cover Vela's mouth and to prevent her from speaking the threat that would surely scar fragile Peter Pettigrew for life.

     "So anyway," said James after Sirius had let go of his sister and they've continued eating. "Does Lily like Gardenias? Or would she prefer Lavenders better?"

     "Lily hates flowers." said Vela nonchalantly.

     "Damn."

     "Hey guys," the four looked up to see Frank Longbottom arrive. His little boy look cut neat as always and his robes pinned to perfection. They greeted him as he sat down next to Vela. "Have you heard?"
