Chapter 3

"I'm so bored I could probably jump off the astronomy tower and have a good time," Bea groaned, throwing her head back whilst Remus couldn't help but laugh from where he sat across from her, spread across the couch decorated in red.

"I think that's a little extreme, Bea," Remus scoffed, watching as she lifted her head to glare at him, furiously shaking no as she done so.

"It's not, really," Bea mumbled, "are we just going to sit here all day?!"

"Well I was planning to," Remus smirked, seeing her annoyance was always highly amusing.

"This dress is too lovely to sit about in!" Bea huffed, pushing herself up before grabbing Remus' hand, "come on, we're going somewhere!"

"Where?"

"On a mission to find fun!" Bea grinned, pulling a reluctant Remus towards the door.

"Woah, Woah, Woah," Bea almost groaned as she turned her head, seeing the three boys known as Remus' friends making their way down the stairs from the boy's dormitory, "where do you think you're going with our moony?!" asked Sirius, watching Bea raise her eyebrow.

"My brother and I are going on an adventure," Bea huffed, "and if any of you were invited it'd be Peter."

"What fancy him or something?" Sirius asked, nudging James who couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"No," she scoffed, "no offence, Peter, but he is the only tolerable one out of you three when you're together," she added, a quick glance at James who managed to catch it.

"Right in the heart," Sirius gasped, clutching at his chest.

"Don't you have some girl to flirt with?" Bea grumbled.

"I'm looking at her."

"I will end your life, Black," she snapped, grabbing Remus' wrist and pulling him out of the common room, irritation running through her when she realised that the boys were following them.

"So, done any pranks lately," Bea asked, trying her best to ignore the three followers trailing behind them, turning to Remus who looked down at her with his eyebrow raised.

"You're interested?"

"Course I am," Bea grinned, "doesn't mean I approve, though, but I like to know what my big brother is up to."

"Well we did prank this one guy, it was a bit random though," Remus shrugged, "funny, though, in your year as well."

"What's his name?" asked Bea, frowning as she done so.

"Anthony," Remus spoke after a few minutes of pondering, "James' idea, wasn't it?!"

Bea couldn't help but turn her head, her eyes catching James who finally nodded, "yeah, it was," James mumbled, shrugging his shoulders but evidently brightening when he saw the small smile wide on Bea's lips.

"Good choice," Bea commented, quickening her pace and gesturing for the four boys to follow her.

"So, you want our company now?" asked Sirius, his eyebrow raised as he threw his arm around her, watching the glare in her eye as she roughly elbowed him, pushing his arm off her and quickly moving so that she was walking next to James instead.

"You are still free to leave," she snapped, "y'know, Sirius, I'd actually tolerate you if you weren't so bloody annoying!"

"How nice," Sirius muttered, "where are we going?"

"Hogsmeade," she replied simply, shrugging, "I need some more jelly slugs."

"You're going to turn into a jelly slug," Remus scoffed, rolling his eyes as he turned to her, eyeing James quickly who had turned to stare at her but soon did Remus' eyes trail to her, seeing the grin on her lips.
