𝕾carlette sighed heavily as she collapsed dramatically into one of her favourite arm chairs in the Hufflepuff common room besides her best friend, who happened to be sat under a blanket, staring down at her palms.

She's been spending her Tuesday nights up in Dumbledore's office working on her fire and charm with the older wizard, and she can tell she's fairly close, it's just an inch from her grasp. She's unbelievably proud of her for trying for the goodness of the Wizarding World, if it was her in Willow's position, she'd use her fire selfishly to either burn Sirius when he's been annoying, aim fire at Lord Voldemort, bonus points for his nose, or scare the first years by trotting around with flames in her hand. But that's Scarlette, not lovely, sunshine, lemon Willow.

"Hello, my pink panther" I greeted, putting on a snobbish, breathless accent as I looked up to the brunette, a flat expression on her face when I cackled, giggling to myself, her eyes rolling as she deadpanned with a sarcastic wave,

"Hello, my purple panda"

"No, no, no, pink panther is a— you know what? Nevermind" I waved her off, her eyebrows knitting together confusedly, though shrugging it off and beginning to twirl her curled hair around her finger, murmuring,

"I thought we were just doing some alliteration thing to be honest....I payed that game with Sirius. Ended in an argument because he wanted sexy but I said sexy Scarlette sounds better than sexy Sirius, right?"

"Oh yeah, definitely. Remus and I have them arguments......all the time" I hummed, biting my lip to stifle my laughter, the girl reaching over and swatting my arm with a playful glare,

"Come to think of it, have you and Rem ever had a proper couple fight?" She queried, leaving me to ponder for a few moments, opening my mouth to speak before closing it, narrowing my eyes suspiciously as I asked,

"What classes as a proper couple fight? Because if you're talking about when you chased Sirius around the castle with a pocket knife screaming bloody murder at him.....then no"

"Okay but in my defence, he said I looked so ugly I would make the blind kids cry, proceeded to take James' glasses off and make him cry by looking at me by shoving an onion in his face. It was completely justified, don't make me sound like a raging psychopath Wills" She defenced, raising her hands up, a snicker falling from my lips as I nodded in agreement, remembering the day vividly. Sirius and Scarlette's relationship sure does provide us some entertainment, and they know it.

"We have had a few arguments here and there, the first one being the day we kissed we were shouting at each other technically. Oh— there was the time we argued because he took the last piece of chocolate and also the day he was being an absolute prick on purpose, remember? We had a sleepover and kicked them out for the day" I replied, her lips pursing together as she blinked at me, Amos chuckling from a few chairs away after hearing me and seeing Scarlette's reaction,
