Characters: Dorcas Meadowes & Remus Lupin
Setting: Back dated: Friday, September 25, 4 P.M., Entrance Hall & The Lake.
Content: SFW
Summary: Dorcas and Remus take a walk.

By the time the end of the week had approached, Dorcas was looking forward to the peaceful tranquility that the lake always seemed to offer her. After being out with Narcissa at all hours the previous two nights, Dorcas found herself a little worn out and restless, and the idea of spending time with Remus was more than appealing. Whenever Dorcas found herself spending time with Narcissa it was always done at one hundred percent, with their friendship there was no such thing as simply soaking in each others' company. So, regardless of how much fun she did have during the past week it was nice to have a little break from her Slytherin friend.

After Remus had agreed to take a walk with her she had tucked away her journal and quickly made her way down to the entrance hall. She leaned against the wall next to the window, occasionally smiling at some of the students she knew before slowly letting her eyes linger on the activities outside and the students. There had been no breakthrough regarding everybody's current hair situation and Dorcas was finding it a little tiring. Sure, it had been fun the first few days but tomorrow would mark the one week anniversary of her blueberry hair and something irked her about the idea of getting used to seeing students with bright pink hair.

She moved her eyes towards the staircase awaiting Remus' arrival, hoping her blonde hair would return before the weekend's end.

"Oh yes, all rainbows and pretty things," he smirked. Dorcas was brave, that was for certain, or maybe just had known Narcissa long enough to know better than that. "Most of the time, course her ugly sign is nearly as scary as...well...it's a woman's fury, I don't think there's anything worse than that."

Winter was always Remus's least favorite time of the year. Everything about the cold made things more lonely and depressing than ever. His nights spent in the shack were the worst yet; the nearly frozen wooden floors, the rattling of the panels of glass in the shack. It made him shiver.

"I know, I know, back to reality," Remus sighed, wishing they could stand down on the banks of the lake for the rest of the day. Especially with Dorcas around. But his stomach growled and he knew they needed to head back in. Without thinking about it too much he held out his arm to her and smile.

"Shall we, m'lady?" He was just being silly, or really meant it, or both. He wasn't sure.

Dorcas shrugged and matched Remus' smirk with one of her own. Maybe he was right. Dorcas never really saw any other side of Narcissa apart from the one she knew. But she had heard some talk and whenever Narcissa's name was said around some of the younger students the look on their faces were priceless. They also didn't suggest that Dorcas' Narcissa was the same Narcissa everybody knew. "Suppose I can see how she could be a little scary.."

Dorcas bit her lip lightly, smiling at Remus' silliness. She hesitated for a moment before a huge grin spread across her face. She raised an eyebrow before playing along. She did a small curtsy, laughing again realizing how silly she was being. "Kind sir," she said playfully, her head slightly tilting to one side before linking her arm with his. Her head dropped slightly as she chuckled to herself. She could only imagine how ridiculous they looked, her with blue hair and his lavender but she didn't mind seeming ridiculous to any onlookers. She also didn't mind because it was Remus, she was starting to realise how completely comfortable she was around him. Her smile grew as she started to realise this, not wanting to read anything into it in fear of what it could mean.

Remus figured he could stop trying to help Dorcas see the rather scary side of her friend. After all, what happened between girls was a completely foreign topic to Remus. In fact he almost preferred Dorcas never saw that side of her friend; it would be like Remus seeing any of his mates from an outsider perspective, something he liked to turn a blind eye to.

Her curtsy followed by linking her arm in his made Remus grin broadly, his stomach doing a tiny flip. Her blue next to his lavender made him chuckle, but for a few moments he didn't care. Right now, Remus's arm was linked with Dorcas as they made their way up to the castle. If he thought about it too much, well, he was terrified of what all of this could and would mean. But each time he looked at her it got a little easier. They were baby steps, but they were steps in the right direction.
