"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

"Her eyes, they're so.. green." James smiled dreamily. Sirius smirked. "Yeah, you're definitely going to win her over with eloquent phrases like that." - Olivia has hated James Potter for as long as she can remember, and she is sure that the feeling is absolutely mutual. There is no way in hell that they are ever going to fancy each other, or at least that's what she thinks. As they enter their last year at Hogwarts, everything starts to change. One thing leads to another, and the both of them will soon realise that the lines between love and hate aren't as clear as they seem to be.

After being expelled from Ilvermorny for a particularly daring prank, Thalia Scamander finds herself having to readjust to life at Hogwarts. Lucky for her, she hits it off with a group called the Marauders...evidently she hit it off with some more than others.
