Dodge The Cupids

[Remus J. Lupin]

<sup>The halls were lined with red, pink, and yellow, and tiny little Cupids fluttered around whacking random people over the heads with their Love Arrows. Quite something that one wished to dodge. Were you to go and take a look at all the food in the Great Hall, you might as well throw up. Everything was pink, red, or yellow, and in the shape of love hearts. Take the toast for example- its pink, and in the shape of a love heart.

Remus Lupin was walking down the empty corridor, humming something random beneath his breath and making sure that there were no Cupids coming his way. Someone, who was a Christmas person at heart, had placed Mistletoe up as well, but I guess it really does fit in with the whole Valentines’ deal.

In truth, Remus felt lonely. He was utterly confused about what was going on with his ‘Love Life’. First, there was the whole Sirius incident, then the Lily incident, and Anya’s love for him. The poor boy just couldn’t take any more of it. Then there were the odd Slytherins who had heard about the Sirius incident, and were saying that Remus wanted to be ‘Sirius’ Bitch’. How nice.

He stopped, leaning against a marble wall and sighing. Auburn locks were strangely ruffled- due to having sprinted so fast out of his bed, out of Gryffindor Tower, and down to these random corridors. Why? Well, there were several Cupids dancing around the Boys’ Dorms, and Remus now pitied anyone who woke up to find Cupid whacking them over the head.

All in all, Remus was beginning to hate Valentines’ Day.</sup>

SIrone had been wandering the hallway's for about an however now seriously bored hiding from the rather scary crowd of girls looking for Sirius Black. She saw Remus and smiles. 'Better than talking to myself' she thought walking over.
"Morning Remus" she said smiling "How are you on this frightful day of pink and red clashing hearts?" she asked.

[Remus J. Lupin]

^{Remus glanced at her; lean frame still leant against the wall.
“Awful,” he answered, chuckling softly as a small smile tugged at his lips. “And I bet Sirius is getting hundreds and hundreds of Valentines’ from his fan club. The poor sod.” He sighed, wishing he hadn’t brought up the subject of Sirius on such a day as Valentines. But it was too late now- his fat mouth had spoken.}

"Lucky Sirius" she said rolling her eyes in a sarcastic matter. "So you didn't get any cards I'm guessing" she said. SHe realised she sounded rude and blushed slightly "I didn't mean it like that it's just what you said made it sound like you didn't" she blurted out embarrassed.

[Remus J. Lupin]

^{Remus smiled at her, shaking his head a little.
“Don’t worry about it. And no, I didn’t. I don’t really mind that much. I don’t usually get cards or anything, so it’s not big deal.” He shrugged lightly, merely lifting and dropping one shoulder. Jewel-like amber eyes glanced around the corridors, still searching for any lurking Cupids that could be coming their way.
“And, hopefully I’m not being rude, what about you?”<br>}

[Sirone Solis]

"Nope none for me but you get used to it after the first two or three times" she said smiling. "So what are you doing hanging aound here?" she asked trying to make conversation. Sure she didn't mind talking to Remus but they didn't really know each other so it was hard to know what to talk about with him.

[Remus J. Lupin]

^{“I was escaping the Cupids,” He chuckled again, beginning to hum softly beneath his breath. “They were dancing around the Boys’ Dorm- waiting to hit one of us, I expect. Valentines’ Day isn’t the safest day of the year.” Remus paused, shrugging again.
“Are you going to the Dance tonight, then?”<br>}

[Sirone Solis]

"Yeah but I'll probably be hiding in a corner all night so if you fancy a chat you know where to find me" she said smiling. "And no between being trampled by Sirius fans and cupids it isn't safe" she said laughing.
((g2g for now will be back for the 'dance' lol))

[Sirone Solis]

She smiled " so are you going or are you hiding away from the evil arrow wielding cupids?" she asked. Remus was really ok despite the company he kept. Why did he hang around with Peter. Sure she disliked James and Sirius feeling they were rather big headed but she had taken an instant hatred toward Petigrew.
