Meretricious | Professor Lupin

139. Dumb twat

"He isn't an auror or a defense teacher."

"He's qualified" she replied.

His magical eye turned and looked at her forearm, the glamored one.

She put her arms behind her, weirded out.

"I'd like you to sign up with Kingsley or Lupin."

"What, don't trust him?" she asked.

"Kingsley or Lupin" he said before walking away from her.

She stared at his back, then felt someone staring at her.

She knew it was Remus, "Andy?" she walked up to him.

"Yeah?" he asked, stopping his conversation with Sirius.

"Home?"

"Hey- no- I barely get to see you now that-" Sirius stopped his sentence. He cleared his throat, "you never come over anymore" he stated.

"Miss me?"

"Very much so" he nodded. "Besides, you're the only one that has the time to visit."

"Hey!" she shoved his shoulder.

Andrew chuckled, Spencer gave him a sharp look.

"What! It's true" he shrugged.

She rolled her eyes, "I can't come over, besides you have a roommate now. He'll keep you company" she smiled.

She knew Remus was hearing this.

"You should still come have dinner with me, like you used to" he reached for her arms.

"I don't know... Andrew's become a better cook now" she shrugged.

"Then Andrew can come too" he smiled.

"Andrew's my friend, not yours" she shook her head.

"I can share" he smirked.

"Ew do not make me imagine a naked Spencer right now for the love of Merlin" Andrew shut his eyes in disgust.

"I didn't say anything" Sirius shrugged.

"Andrew is mine."

"Not for long" he winked at him.

Andrew blushed slightly.

"Down boy" she pointed at Sirius. "Come on, let's leave" she told Andrew. "I told Max I could cover for him tonight."

"Thought you and Mason were heading to the festival?" Andrew asked, getting his coat.

"Yeah we were, but we'll probably go tomorrow or something."

"Blah blah blah- you're coming to dinner on Saturday, understood? And I'm throwing a late birthday party for Remus- you're also coming to that too- both of you. It'll be an order get together, you know, an opportunity to bond."

"Is Sev coming?"

"No" he rolled his eyes.

"Then it's not an order get together" she replied.

"Can you please come?"

They looked at one another, both smirking once they realized the second meaning the sentence had.

"Gross, I'll wait outside" Andrew left the two alone.

"Please?" Sirius asked.

She took a deep breath, "I don't like parties."

"The security guard at the bar in Mexico knew you by name, I'm sure this will be fine."

"Yes but-"

"I don't think you'll be taking your shirt off and getting on a table-"
