*Peter Pettigrew Hogwarts years*
Setting: later the same night as the last chapter; a student party in Gryffindor common room, Periwinkle just outside the door...

"Ppperi-right?"she jumps at the sudden voice, then looks to find Peter next to her

"Yeah," she tells him

"What're you doing out here?"

"Sirius invited me to a party," she lies, "but he never told me how I'd be able to get in."

"I can let you in," he tells her with a smirk

"Would you?" she asks him

"..." he nods with an awkward & not every attractive smile

"That's so sweet of you," she tells him as she forces a smile, & struggles to keep chocking on her discussed for the boy that'll one day be her father

"..." he whisper the password as she forces herself to keep a fake, flirtatious smile on her face

"Thanks Peter," she says forcing herself to be demure, sweet & coy as she kisses him on the cheek

"..." he blushes profusely, scratch the back of his neck, while he's looking to the floor, Peri silently gags & wipes the germs from his cheek off her lips

"..." they both make their way inside before going their separate ways

Peri makes her way through the crowd of Gryffindors undetected, she does so due to how many of them are partying, not paying attention and thanks to her power of persuasion which she used on Peter. She carefully sneaks her way into the boys dormitory and starts looking for his his bed, which hold his belongings, eventually finding it, she starts rummaging through his things for the vile, food or drink holding the potion...

"What're you doing," a voice comes making her jump and turn to find James glaring at her

"Looking for something," she tell him simply

"Amongst Peter's things?" He asks arching a brow into his tamable hair, "you maybe his future daughter," he states, "but that doesn't give you the right to go through his things-how did you even get in her anyways?"

"I few through an open window," she lies, "I can turn into a bat after all."

"..." he gives her a dull look now, unimpressed by her reason, "What are you even looking for anyways?"

"Look," she sigh, "I can't tell you anymore than I already have," she explains, "but everything is not what it seem with him," she tells him, "and I need to prevent my birth-"

"Why would you want to do that?"

"I can't tell you that," she states again

"You have two choices," he tells her, "one being: you don't tell me what you're looking for and I go report you Minie," he says to her, "two being: you tell me me and I might help you look," he states, "your choice."

"..." she remains silent in thought

"Well?" He asks her after a minute

"I'm thinking," she tells him

"..." he rolls his eyes and continues to stand their waiting for her to answer

"Huh," she sighs out, finally deciding to give in, "fine," she mutters annoyed, "I'll tell you."

"Well," he says expectingly after another moment of her silence, "go on then."

"I'm looking for a love potion he's going to use on Karissa," she tell him, "which is how I'm born-"
