Early March 1978
Kelsey watched the owl fly away until it disappeared from her vision and into the horizon. The sight of her application to appear for the Muggle-relations department exam had her biting the inside of her cheek nervously.
What if she didn't even make the cut to even sit for the exam, let alone pass it? The voice inside her head told her.
Lost in thought, she felt someone nudge her playfully to distract her.
"Don't worry," the voice whispered in her ear, sending goosebumps. Spring was almost here, but every time they stood so close, it still gave her those shivers.
"I'm not." She put on her brave face and smiled at Sirius who looked at her in disbelief.

He chased her all the way back to the castle shouting how it was Kelsey and not him who had proclaimed their love, to any poor soul who made the mistake of meeting his eye. Many students were confused while some just nodded along vigorously. All while Kelsey evaded his hold.
That the couple needed therapy was the opinion of several Hogwarts students that afternoon. How had they ended up here- from being confessed to - to making students question their combined sanity? Kelsey needed to recap the events of a few days prior:
