The Cute College Boy

Remus-10

Best. Eighteenth. Ever. Remus had had the best time and had loved it. Honestly. Bowling and having a meal with his friends was the absolute best way to spend his eighteenth birthday. Everyone had been so happy and lively. Except Sirius. Well... Sirius had been alright and fun until he had to go and take that call from his family. He was worried about Sirius. After the call, Sirius had put on fake happiness and had quietened down. It wasn't fair. Remus had to make him feel happy and loved. And he knew exactly how to do that... All he needed was a bit of help from his friends.

Once Remus walked into the canteen that Tuesday, he instantly saw the others gathered around a large table in the centre of the hall, sat quietly eating and checking their phones. He smiled and went over to them, sitting down in between Dorcas and James.

"Wassup lads," He grinned, dumping his bag under the table.

"Hey Re," James said.

"Anyone know how Sirius is doing in his exam so far?" Remus asked.

"He said he had to do a two-hour written paper this morning and I can't remember what he has to do this afternoon," Alice said.

"Oh neat," James said, "What are we gunna do for his birthday?"

"Pub night?" Frank suggested.

"Na. Sirius isn't a 'pub night' kind of guy. He is more a long walk in the countryside person," Lily said, leaning back into James, whose arm was around Lily's shoulders.

"He loves the beach. Just saying," Dorcas said, looking up from her phone, "Like, that's his happy place."

"Yeah he does a lot of beach themed art. Maybe we could do a beach party?" Lily said.

"Yeah!" Frank's eyes lit up, "Like a barbeque and that?"

"Oh my gosh yes," Marlene said, "He would love that. We could have just us and Alya 'coz she's awesome and cool and maybe Reiny and Tom, you know the waitress we saw at the Leaky and their son 'coz Sirius is real good friends with them and go swimming and eat lots of barbeque food."
