Andromeda wasn't feeling OK on Valentine's Day, after Malcom and Cordelia left, Cissy had been setting up double dates for her and some possible future husbands approved by mother and her and Lucius who were the most in love arranged couple she had ever seen, like not even Bella and Rodolphus liked each other that much, they liked their evil cult leader more than they loved themselves or each other, it was disgusting to even think about it. Lucius and Cissy actually seemed in love and really enjoyed each other's company.
On Valentine's Day Andi's lucky date was Benedict Nott they were all supposed to meet in Hogsmeade
"hey Nardie, there's your sister, now where is Nott, he should be here by now" Lucius said
"this date needs to go well, you'll be leaving Hogwarts in two years, you need a husband to continiue the bloodline" Cissy said
"why do I? Bella is already married and you are so in love with Lucius, and while is pretty certain Sirius won't marry anybody approved by our family, Regulus seems like he will produce the beloved heir to the house of Black, I am not necessary for carrying on the bloodline right now" Andromeda said with a bored tone
"don't discourage yourself Andi, you're as much part of this family as everyone else, you need to do your part too" Cissy said clearly trying to make Andromeda feel better but she had no idea of the real reason why she was upset, she didn't want to be a part of it, as she said her sisters and cousin would carry the torch, is not like every other member of her family was going to die or realize the whole blood purity thing was nonsense.
Moments later Benedict arrived and he was pretty annoying like all of the other "dates" and the moment she found an excuse to leave she did.

Sirius and James went around spying on people to prank on Hogsmeade, they were lucky that on that weekend they didn't have detention, they didn't have a special someone to celebrate Valentine's Day with either, so they took it out pranking on the happy couples that were having a special date that day like Arthur Weasley and Molly Prewett, Frank Longbottom and Alice Fortescue, and their next victims Lucius Malfoy and Sirius's cousin Narcissa Black, next to them were a boy named Benedict Nott, another pureblood snake, and Andi looking bored.
The boys splashed a bunch of magical paint upon them, it changed color everytime they tried to wash it off, just the correct spell could take it off Narcissa, Lucius and Nott ran back to the castle and proably the Sytherin common room to try to wash the paint off before they would find out they couldn't. Andi on the other hand went to talk to the boys
"thank you from saving me of that bore of a date, when you need help with the next step on your secret mission, tell me" she said to them before walking away to stumble on Ted Tonks and she walked with him towards the castle.
"did we just ruin a date and created another date?" James asked
"I think we did, so much for our goal ruining Valentine's day for everyone" Sirius said
"There is someone who's Valentine's Day we haven't ruined yet" James said with a suspicious grin
"Snivellus? you want to have Lily Evans yell at you for Valentine's Day?, you are so crazy for that girl Prongs" Sirius said
James rolled his eyes before spotting, Lily, Snape, Diana and another Griffindor girl on the distance going near the forest and decided to follow them with James's invisibility cloak.

"So, you say you can actually cast a corporeal patronus charm? in your third year? some people can't do it in their entire lives" Charlotte Lewis said
" we saw Potter and his gang of prank marauders practicing the spell, and we thought if those 4 are up to anything with that spell we better be ready, so we decided to practice the spell our selves" Diana said as she casted the spell producing a cute little fox
"What about you Lily?" Severus said with a slight uncomfortable tone in his voice
Lily casted the spell as a doe came out of her wand
" once you figure it out the first time it becomes easy to do it again" Lily said
Severus and Charlotte looked in amazement to the fox and the doe made of silver light, but Severus's face showed a bit of jealousy.

" did you see that James? Diana and Lily actually spied on us when we were on our Patronus practice sessions, I see we move ahead with operation moonlight Prongs or they will get too involved and we must find a way in which either them or the teachers will find out" Sirius said
James was a little distracted but still answered
"yeah we will have to figure that one out, and it would be cool to avoid our pranks being found out, but it was pretty cool seeing them cast the spell" James answered
"oh, I know what's happening, you are thinking of Evan's Patronus, a doe, a female stag, legend says those with the same species of animal as their Patronus are soulmates, but its just a legend James Evans hates you" Sirius said
"have you heard that from hate to love there is just one step, oh Sirius, today wasn't such a disappointment after all" James said

Andromeda was on her secret room with Ted trying to figure out how to take the magic paint off
"for the girl who is always clean and organized, a splash of magic painting is pretty nice" Ted said
"Says the most disorganized boy in school, who's always spilling something, at least the prank gave me the perfect excuse to get away from that stupid double date with Benedict" Andi said
"you weren't enjoying your date?" Ted said
"of course not, I never do Ted and you know that, all they ever talk about is the Dark Lord and blood purity, and at my suggestion of getting some candy at Honeydukes, they looked at me as if I was acting like a child and they didn't want to be bothered in their high talk"
"maybe you deserve to have some fun today"
as he said it a radio appeared in the room and started playing music, muggle music, a new band Ted had told her about The Beatles why muggles put insect names to their bands was beyond her understanding, but the music was pretty good, Ted started dancing, sometimes he stepped on her feet, various songs played from both Wizard and muggle bands, Andi was having so much fun that she didn't notice when she tripped over Ted and both fell to the floor.
Resting in the floor of the room both stared at each other thinking of all the time they shared on that room their special place as the radio started playing a romantic balad, in a moment's noticed Ted kissed her. Andromeda had kissed Malcom before he left, it was nice, but it never felt like that, without even thinking it she kissed him back and they stayed like that on the floor for the next hour, when Andromeda realized it the paint was gone.
