The Boys Are Back in Town

2- Fucking Quinn

The three friends had just finished getting ready for the party in the Ravenclaw common room. School had been back for a week and somehow Jesse was already the school slag. She and Blue had stopped everyone else from murdering Quinn, and she had talked to him. He swore he never said anything. Poor little Jesse believed him. Blue was in a short, structured purple dress. It had puffy shoulders and bell sleeves. She had paired it with a brown belt and brown heeled boots. "Do you think you'll make out with Roman again?" Carter asked as Jesse chuckled, remembering the last party of their 4th year where Blue disappeared with the Hufflepuff. "No, no way," Blue sighed. Jesse was wearing a short, sleeveless plaid dress that was black, cream and brown. Over the top she had an oversized light brown cardigan and she also wore brown boots and scrunched up cream socks. "Do you have a light?" Jesse asked as she took the cigarette from behind her ear, spinning it between her fingers before placing it between her teeth. "You don't?" Carter asked, searching her pockets for a lighter before finding one, holding it out for Jesse's cigarette. She took a drag before exhaling. "Remy took it from me, bloody bastard," she chuckled. Carter adjusted her long crocheted brown and purple dress in the mirror. It was sleeveless and came down to her calves. She was also wearing a white knotted cardigan over the top with long bell sleeves and brown heeled boots.

At the party, Remus and Peter were sitting on the couch with their drinks, watching as James and Sirius chugged back drink after drink. "Merlin, they're already drunk off their asses you know?" Barty said as he greeted the girls. "I don't doubt it," Blue laughed. "You three look exceptionally lovely," Barty smiled, handing Carter a drink. "What are you on about?" Jesse asked, the genuine compliment sounding out of character. "Nothing," Barty said, before he walked off, probably to get another drink. "SARIA!" James called. "Oh no," Jesse sighed as the tall quidditch player walked over to the girl. "Hi Potter," she said as he stumbled over his feet. "Having a good night are we?" she asked. "An amazing night, thank you for asking. You don't have a drink, I'm going to get you a drink. You need to get on this level," he slurred as he started to walk away. "Merlin, be careful!" the girl shouted as she laughed.

"Bluebelle," Roman said, finding the girl. "Hi Roman," she said, filling her cup with firewhiskey. "I thought about you all holidays," he said. "That's nice," Blue hummed, downing the whole cup before refilling it. The boy was confused as he thought they were in some kind of relationship. "Did you- um, did you think about me? I wrote you a letter," he said. "Listen, Roman. We aren't together. I hooked up with you once, last year when I was drunk of my ass. Get over yourself," Blue said harshly, trying to push away from the boy. "Come on Blue, you can't lie and say you don't feel anything for me," He said, grabbing her wrist. "Roman, let go," Blue said, when his grip didn't loosen. A Slytherin boy who had just been quietly sitting in an arm chair made his way over. "I believe the lady asked you to let go," Regulus said. Blue looked up at the slender man who was standing next to her. "Come on Black, just walk away," Roman said. "I'm afraid I can't," Regulus sighed. "You want to go Black?" Roman asked. "No Roman, but I do happen to know you are trying out for the Hufflepuff team next week, and I happen to know your captain. If you wish to try out at all you will unhand miss Delacour," Regulus said. The Hufflepuff loosened his grip and walked away. "You alright Bluebelle?" Regulus asked as he turned to face the girl who was looking up at him in admiration. "Y-yes. Yes, I'm okay, thank you Regulus," Blue smiled. "My pleasure, beautiful," he said charmingly before sauntering away.

"You got these off Sybil? Salazar, how much weed did she bring this term?" Carter asked, handing the joint back to Barty as she exhaled slowly. "Jesse said she grows them in their dorm, in little planters," Barty chuckled, taking a drag. "So then, who's your latest conquest?" Carter asked. "What do you mean?" Carter asked. "Please, it wouldn't be a first week party without you telling me all about your latest shag now would it?" Carter chuckled. "I don't know, I think I'm over the whole meaningless sex thing to be honest with you," he hummed. Carter snorted a laugh before looking at his serious face. "Oh, you're not kidding. Did somebody break your fragile little heart Barty?" Carter said, dramatically draping her body across Barty's lap and snatching the joint from between his fingers. Barty looked longingly down at one of his best friends and sighed as he examined her face. "Something like that," he said quietly.
