((Third person POV))

"I take it the date didn't go well?" James asked, watching in amusement as a dark haired boy paced up and down the dorm.

The boy stopped, held his hands to his head and sighed loudly. "Why is this girl so frustrating?!"

"Maybe if you actually listened to what she was saying instead of letting jealousy get to your head?" Remus pointed out. "Oh, and James, you owe me a gallon."

Sirius scowled at the two. "You seriously bet on the date?"

They grinned in reply.

"How about we talk about this somewhere else?" Peter said nervously, eyeing a sleeping Frank Longbottom, the other boy in their dorm.

Meanwhile, in the girls dorms, Avery was fuming.

"What makes that idiotic fool think that he has the right to-"

"Avery, shut up." Erin said strictly.

"You only saw part of it! You have no idea how fricking-"

"Shut. Up."

"What is she going on about?" Lily asked Amelia, who looked to be in a state of 'are you kidding me right now'

"It's nothing for you guys to be concerned about." Avery muttered, turning towards them.

"Merlins beard Avery your cheek is covered in blood! What happened?!" Lily asked.

"I-it doesn't matter. I'm gonna go to the kitchens." Avery sighed, walking out the door.

"The... Kitchens?" Lily asked, watching as the brown haired girl left.

Avery exited the portrait of the fat lady and almost immediately ran into Severus.

"Sorry-"

"Actually, Avery, I've been meaning to talk to you."

"I'm in a bit of a mood so if you could just-"

"I don't think we should be friends."

"..."

"..."

"Are you kidding me? For Merlins sake I'm just having a great day aren't I?" The girl yelled sarcastically, pushing past him and taking many turns too get to her destination.

Avery stopped and faced a painting of a fruit bowl. She reached her hand out and tickled the pear, which turned into a door handle.

She pulled it open, walking inside and avoiding the pots and pans and headed to the back, until she heard voices that's he recognised.

She stayed where she was, hidden by a counter and a few pans.

"You were going to hit her?!" James asked.

"No- I just-" Sirius tried to protest.

"You were going to hit her." Remus stated.

"Sirius Black, you tried to hurt her! You made her cry!" James yelled.

"Why?" Peter asked.

"She mentioned something about my mum and-"

"Because she said something about your mum?! You tried to hit her because she said something about your mum!?" James continued to yell.
