Scorpius Pov
'Which suit?'
Honestly, Scorpius couldn't see the difference between either suit.
'Whichever..'
'I am not joking. Tell me... Which?'
'This one'

'Surely that can't be your choice..' Remus wrinkled his nose.
'Fine that one.'
'You do realize that one suit is lucky and the other is unlucky.'

'Whatever.'
'Fine, I am wearing this but the stake's on you.'
'Fine.'
Scorpius wasn't really interested in remus's suit issues.

Remus POV
'Evans. I need to talk to you—'
'Why?'
'Um I seem to have a thing for Charlotte and.. I don't know if I should try once again.'

'I don't think that you should.'
'You think I will be heartbroken?'

'Yeah.'
'Oh .... And just one more thing.. what the hell is going on between you and Drake?'

'N-nothing.'
'Lily, I can read through your lies.'
'How?'
'Maybe because you stammer when you lie?'
'Drat.. I thought I had got rid of it.'
Remus chuckled.

'Fine. Two weeks.. I guess , ago he asked me out. Well, kind of.'
Remus's eyes widened.

'And?'
'I rejected him.'
'And?'
'He's been hung up on me ever since.'
'And?'
'Stop that. That's it.'
'Woah! I need to talk—'
'You are not going to tell anyone. Especially not Drake, Black, Pettigrew and Potter.'

Remus shrugged but promised anyway.
'Is this suit any good?'
'I think you look handsome..?'
'Thats me. What about the suit?'
Lily grinned at him 'I honestly don't care.'

Remus huffed and walked away.
What was it with people and their attitude towards his suits..?
All he wanted was a little appreciation for his suits..
***
The party was over.
He looked as the clock struck one.
Drake was sitting alone.

'Hey handsome'
He couldn't tell who it was because of the dark.
She sat down beside him.

And through the glimmering moonlight he saw her face.

'Charlotte?' he asked confused.
She cut him off with a kiss.

He hesitated but gave in.
She was definitely drunk.

It was another two minutes before he sprang apart.

'This is horrible.' Scorpius muttered.
'Yeah.. Wait.. the kiss or the situation?'
'The situation. That was one heck of a kiss.'
'Why do we end up drunk together everytime?'

'Everytime?'
She smiled but didn't explain.

'Don't you have a boyfriend?'

Charlotte Pov
'Don't you have a boyfriend?'

This should have woke her up.
But here she was cheating on Lorcan with someone from 47 years ago.. Or that's what she thought.

'had. We broke up.'

No, they hadn't.

'But- but.. Remus would kill me if I- you know. The poor guy's in love with you.'

'Then we keep it in secret.'

'Or what if— nothing happens? We remain friends?'

'Or we sleep with each other and call it a deal.'
'No.'
'Seriously?'
'I can't— fine.'

Scorpius Pov
'That was so—' Scorpius started.
'I didn't want to tell but I told you so, Drake.'
'But.. it felt a bit familiar–'
'–like it happened before?'

They both grinned too drunk to know what they were talking.

'I think we should sleep now'
She nodded.
'I meant in our own dorms. And remember Stephens...This never happened..'
'Sure.'
--------------------------------------------------
Scorpius woke up drenched in cold sweat. He heard Remus snoring in the top bunk.

After sleeping with Charlotte the day hadn't ended..
He just had a dream which didn't even make sense.

All he remembered was two lines.
'All I wanted to say was that I really love you and don't want to lose you, Lily.'
'I love you too, Malfoy.'

This dream certainly gave him mixed signals.. Was this a glimpse of the future?
Did Evans know about Scorpius and his time travel..?

Did Evans love him back..?

This was messed up and he wasn't even close to how messed up his life was going to be in a few weeks.

First McKinnon. Then Evans. Then Stephens.

He had three great friends and his love life tangled with all three love's of their lives..

Two words. Messed up.
