eyes narrowed at the flock of Ravenclaws that had—for all purposes—invaded Gryffindor
territory.
"Absolutely, kitten." Sirius grinned, the end of an unlit cigarette hanging from his
lips. "If I'd known the library was this much fun, I'd have started coming up here years
ago."
"You're not bothered by this?" James asked his sister.
Mia huffed, snatching the cigarette from Sirius and tossing it into a nearby bin. "I'm
bothered that Remus is being made uncomfortable. I'm bothered that Ravenclaws have a
habit of touching things that don't belong to them." She was thrilled to see that Marlene
McKinnon, at least, was not present.
Sirius laughed. "Remus is a thing now, is he?"
"Shut it. You know what I mean. Am I going to have to break this up by myself?"
She put her hands on her hips and glared at the Marauders. "Or are you going to—?"
"Leave our friend to the wolves?" Sirius offered dryly.
"That's one way of putting it." She narrowed her eyes and turned on her heel,
approaching Remus's table, sitting down across from him. She was followed by James,
Sirius, and Peter. "Hello, love."
Remus dropped his book and pled for her help with wide eyes. She smiled at him
and then turned her attention to the girls. "Is there something we can help you with? You
all look terribly lost."
"We were just saying hello to Remus here," a blond Ravenclaw said. Mia recognised
her as Callista Hitchins, one of the many girls who tried to poison Sirius with a love potion
on Valentine's Day.
"Oh, what a coincidence! Well, Remus was just saying goodbye to you," Mia retorted
with a cold smile.
Two of the other Ravenclaws gasped, and Mia rolled her eyes as she recognised
them: Sophia Buckley and Mirabella Ellis, an additional two members of the Sirius Black
Fan Club—they also happened to be members of the Cursed by Mia Potter Club.
"If you're here to try and slip him a love potion, you should know that he's smarter
than that and, subsequently, smarter than you."
"He may be smart," Callista declared with narrowed eyes before gesturing at Mia
and adding, "but he's clearly blind."
