A/N so this fic is going to take place in Chicago bc I live here and it's just easier so

"So, what made you guys move into the city?" Lily had been trying to keep steady conversation going so no one would get bored.

"Well, we lived in the suburbs and it was a bit boring and we didn't want to live on campus so here we are. We've never actually been into the city until these past couple of weeks." James responded.

James was sitting next to Sirius while Lily sat at the end of the table. Peter and Remus sat across from the other two boys. Sirius had been watching Remus carefully. He noticed how he pushes his food around his plate and how he starts a new conversation before eating.

"Perhaps we should show them around some time, Lily." Remus smiled slightly. "If that's alright with you guys."

The three boys agreed and they fell into calm banter once more. Remus noticed Sirius had been watching him from time to time throughout the dinner. They finished eating and they all began to clean up.

"You have a lovely home, its so, green." Peter stated. He had been observing their many plants while Lily and Sirius finished cleaning the table and Remus and James did the dishes. Remus chuckled.

"We love plants, clearly. They're kind of like our children. Quiet children who don't make any messes." James laughed at the boy next to him. "If we had a plant in our place, it would definitely die by the end of the week."

"So, James, what are you majoring in?" Remus asked. He was trying to get to know his neighbor as best as he could in one night. They were all really kind and Remus liked that.

"I'm majoring in photography. I always quite liked it. Capturing a beautiful moment so it can last forever. You know what they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. My dad doesn't think I can make a career out of it, but my mom told me if I'm doing what I love it doesn't really matter." James finished washing and handed Remus the last glass to dry. "What about you?"

"English. I love storytelling. I've always been kind of quiet and writing is my outlet I guess." Remus shrugged. "Lily and I have always had a thing for astronomy though. Neither of us wanted to take it as a profession though."

"Thats pretty neat. I guess we're all fine art majors. I know Lily mentioned she's studying art and design, Peter's in theater and Sirius is in film I think." They all made their way to the front door.

"We should get going now, thanks for having us we really appreciate it." The others agreed and they all gave Lily and Remus a hug. When Sirius got to Remus, he pulled him in a little closer than he did Lily. Warmth engulfed the two of them. Sirius let go and smiled, leaving Remus with a faint blush.

Lily opened the door for them and they made their way out. Sirius was the last one out. Remus left to his room while Lily stood there and stopped Sirius .

"Hey, could you give this to James for me? Its my phone number. For like emergencies or something. Remus' is on there as well." She winked while handing him a blue sticky note with their numbers scribbled onto it. "Well, goodnight then."

"Goodnight Lily."

This was a little boring but I wanted to get a little bit more about them and what they're majoring into this. I'll most likely edit this later on.
