"Merlin, Ro," James raised an eyebrow. It was the evening before the full moon and they had just finished their homework in time for dinner. "If you don't slow down, you're going to choke."
She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand after placing her fork down. She cleared her throat, "Sorry."
James laughed slightly, "You don't need to apologize. Just try not to die, would you?"
"Yes, Romi," Sirius agreed, an amused expression crossing over his face. "You're scarfing it down like a wolf." Before he could say anything else, an apple was thrown at his head.
Remus's hand stuck out within seconds and he caught the fruit before it hit the boy in the head. He turned it over in his hand and looked over at his sister, "Really?"
She shrugged, "He was asking for it." Romi looked up, "Redhead in three...two..." The door to the Great Hall opened to reveal Lily alongside Marlene.
"I still can't get over how awesome that is," James announced in awe.
"All I have to do is time the number of steps she takes with how loud they are," Romi pointed out. "If you had enhanced hearing, you could do it too."
"Remus can't," James pointed out.
"He could if he tried."
"Gives me a headache," Remus muttered with a mouth full of food. He swallowed, "Aren't you going to ask her out?"
James shook his head, "Already did this morning. If you think Ro's aim with an apple is impressive, you should see how well Lily can aim her Herbology textbook at my head."
"That's because Romi's been helping her with her aim," Remus pointed out.
James turned to Romi in surprise and she just sent him an amused grin in return, "She asked how I get you to leave me alone."
"I thought we were friends."
"We are," she shrugged, "But I like Lily more often than I like you. She gives me chocolate."
James narrowed his eyes, "I give you chocolate."
"You give me Wizarding chocolate," she corrected. "Lily has muggle chocolate."
"Muggle chocolate is far better than Wizarding chocolate," Remus agreed with a nod.
"Have you ever had a Reese's?" Romi asked James. "They put peanut butter inside chocolate! It's salty and chocolatey and..."
"You want a Reese's now, don't you?" Remus asked.
"I really do."
"Why would you put peanut butter and chocolate together?" James asked in bewilderment. "How does one decide to do such a horrendous thing?"
"Horrendous?" Romi gaped. "You've never even had it before!"
"It's peanut butter and chocolate," he reminded her. "What more needs to be said?"
She narrowed her eyes, "Take it back."
Sirius placed a hand on James's shoulder, "You may want to let this one go. She's got the crazy eyes." His hands immediately flew to his face, "Not the head again."
Romi rolled her eyes before standing up, "I'm going to go eat the superior candy. You fools enjoy your stupid Wizarding World candy."
James watched the girl in confusion as she walked out before facing Sirius, "I still don't understand. Why would they put those things together?"
Sirius shook his head, "I have no idea." He looked down the table where the girls sat, "Oi! McKinnon, Evans!" The two girls looked over at them, "What is this Reese's Romi tells us about?"
