Lucy never thought herself to be an angel by any means. However, the fat cherub that had just serenaded her in the middle of a rather busy corridor certainly seemed to think so. Her cheeks were a furious beet red as she escaped the dreadful scene that she had just been the star of. She pushed her tortoiseshell glasses further up her nose in an attempt to hide behind them.
"I hate Valentine's Day," Arielle declared irritatedly as the two turned the corner as swiftly as possible. "It's literally a made-up holiday!"
"Agreed. Romance is definitely not a little fat man singing to me in a diaper," grumbled Lucy, untucking her hair so that it could cover her flushed cheeks more.
The two entered the dusty Charms classroom to see Theo gazing curiously at the two with a glint of laughter in his eyes.
"That cherub was sure smitten with you," he grinned to Lucy as they sat down in the row behind him.
"I felt embarrassed for you, Lucy," added Pansy with an empathetic look upon her usually sour face.
"I, for one, found it hilarious," Blaise announced smugly, earning a smack on the shoulder from Arielle. "Good lord, woman—Oi, mate—!"
Lucy glanced behind her to see Draco stride into the classroom with a cool expression on his face. His stormy eyes collided with her chocolate brown ones and softened. He slid effortlessly into the seat on the other side of Lucy.
"What's so funny, Blaise?" he snapped, placing his Charms textbook on the desk before wrapping an arm around Lucy's shoulders.
February had arrived, and Theo and Draco seemingly were getting along now. Part of this had to do with Theo's new girlfriend, Daphne Greengrass. Daphne was a fifth-year but kept Theo busy and stopped his excessive flirting, much to Malfoy's relief.
"A cherub serenaded Lucy in the corridor," Theo piped up, stifling a laugh of his own.
"Oh, yeah?" Draco mused as Professor Flitwick bustled into the classroom and clamored to the top of his stack of books.
"Ha ha, very funny you lot," Lucy snapped scornfully as she folded her arms against her chest and glanced over at the tiny teacher.
"Good afternoon class!" he squeaked atop the books. "Today we will be turning vinegar to wine! Look in your textbooks for the incantation. I shall be coming around the class to help!"
The short man waved his wand and glass flasks full of potent vinegar appeared before each student. Immediately, Crabbe dared Goyle to drink the vinegar.
"Everyone ready for Quidditch tomorrow?" asked Theo after waving his wand to place a Silencing Charm so the group could converse in peace.
