Samantha's mouth fell open a little. "Uhh-"
"Correct!" The Fat Lady said. "In you go." she finished as she swung open to reveal a cluttered Gryffindor Common Room.
Sam looked back at James. He gave a little smile, then Sam walked in.
A few people said "hey" or "how was your summer?" to her as she passed, so she quickly responded, desperately wanting to find Remus.
Sam walked around the common room cutting through groups of chatting students, people playing games, and pets on the loose until she came across a boy with scars across his face sitting by the fire, staring into it.
Sam walked up next to Remus and sat down next to him, looking into the fire as well. She rested her head on his shoulder and said. "You're amazing, you know."
A small smile flickered on Remus' face. "Is that a yes?"
Sam brought her head up and looked Remus in the eye. "Most definitely."
Remus smiled. "I love you." he said.
"I love you, too."

The next 2 months flew by, and it was quickly the end of October, today being the 31st. Halloween, the Ball, and a Hogsmead trip.
Remus took Sam's hand as they walked down the stairs to the Great Hall.
"They're holding hands, can we hold hands?!" Sam heard James say to Sirius.
"No!" Sirius yelled. "Are you serious?!"
"No," said James. "I'm James!"
Sam, Remus, and James all laughed while Sirius kept a straight face. "Not funny! How would you like it if I made fun of your name?"
This just made them laugh harder.
"Wanna head into the Three Broomsticks? I really want a Butterbeer." asked Remus. For October it felt more like January, and both Sam and Remus were shaking.
"Yes!" said Sam, through her chattering teeth.
They walked the few more feet to the entrance, then Remus held the door open for Sam.
Sam rolled her eyes. "Stop being such a gentleman. It's weird."
"But-"
"Please? I'm just another human." Sam said.
"Actually-"
Sam glared at Remus. He let it drop, then she grinned broadly. "I think I just won."
The rest of their day they spent in Zonko's and Honeyduke's... well, until the ball, of course.
