mint was the dress
her mother sent her.
She loved the dress
already without wearing it,
she liked the little details on it
and how beautiful the color was.
It reminded her of little lollipops
from her childhood.
She always took the mint one.
Luckily it was Saturday,
that meant she could wear it.
It was hogsmeade-weekend, but she didn't really thought of going.
She just wanted a little bit time for herself.

She dressed herself and let her hair just like it was, wavy and uncontrollably.

Then she left to breakfast with Lily,
a good friend of her,
though Lily hated her brother.
And she understand that.

At breakfast she felt as if someone stares at her, but when she looked around she didn't find someone who did.

Little did she know it was Remus,
who suspiciously had pink cheeks.

After Breakfast she wanted to go somewhere quiet so
that she could read there.

But someone interrupted
her in doing that.

Remus wanted to spend his time with her, and she said yes to him.
Something she didn't said to James when he interrupted her alone-time.

But she liked his presence,
it was calming.

He didn't want to go to hogsmeade either, he rather wanted to spend time with her.
He didn't said it,
but he loved her look today.
He loved how the mint-dress
symbolised her innocence.

The Silence was comfortable.
Really.
But Remus wanted to talk to her,
to laugh with her.
He stared at the book she hold.

"I know that book, its quiet cool.",
he said then.

"Oh you know this book?"

"Yeah, the end is such a plottwist.", he said smirking.

Her reaction was so cute, he thought.
Her eyes widen a bit, then she said
"Are you serious?"

"No, he's at hogsmeade.",
Remus grinned.

First she tried to be angry
because of that pun,
but she failed and laughed then.
He laughed along too, he was proud of himself to make her laugh.

They talked about god and the world,
she speaked more than she did usual.

And this was really better than hogsmeade for Remus.

He stared at her, she looked so happy.

He knew he should tell her about his feelings towards her, but not now.
He didn't want to ruin her happy aura.

Tomorrow they would leave for christmas holidays,
he would miss her so much.

Maybe he would tell her after the holidays about his feelings.
Maybe she had the same feelings.
Maybe she loved him too.
Maybe they would be a couple.
Maybe they would kiss.
Remus totally fell for her.
