A reason to love the library

Remus sat alone in his favorite section of the library, surrounded by books on every subject. Most regular people would consider sitting alone in a dimly lit room, with numerous piles of homework for advanced classes irritating if not down right depressing. Remus however considered the situation a wonderful way to spend his Thursday night, you might even say it was his favorite way to spend his time, period (besides hanging out with the rest of the marauders of course).

Despite his friends constant complaints about Hogwarts library being dull and horrifically boring, Remus found it to be the exact opposite. To him the library was heaven, a magnificent Utopia filled to the brim with books and memories. Tales of fiction and guides of fact, heck, the only thing that could possibly make it better was if there happened to be a shelf full of chocolate. Speaking of chocolate...

Remus peeked out from the sanctuary that was his novel and glanced forward in the direction of the intoxicating scent. There, just two tables away from his very spot sat a girl. Not just any girl, the most beautiful, eloquent looking girl Remus had ever laid eyes on. 'Gorgeous' could not describe this.. this piece of art.

By the looks of it she was a fifth year (like himself) Ravenclaw girl with a slender body and a face that seemed to light up the room. She had ocean blue eyes and full red lips, her face was framed by flowing brown locks that seemed to shimmer from the light of the few lanterns in the corners of the room. Scattered around her were multiple rolls of parchment, a few books on transfiguration, charms, arithmancy and care of magical creatures. And to her left was a large bar of Honeydukes best chocolate which was currently being unwrapped by gentle fingers and bitten, she then put it down and continued her work. Remus watched, transfixed by her very presence. He tilted his head for better view and continued to stare in awe, when a pair of siren like eyes met his own and she waved while smiling a flashy grin. He was suddenly awakened from his trance by the friendly gesture then pointed to himself mouthing 'Who? Me?'

The girl nodded and beckoned him over. He awkwardly rose from his char, grabbed his books and stumbled over to join the mysterious Ravenclaw. Once he was seated at the table the mystery teen wasted no time in introducing herself. "Hello, I'm Geniveve Adolfo" Geniveve beamed. The lycan shuffled his feet underneath the table and glanced nervously at his library companion "I-I'm Remus Lupin" he managed to choke out.

"Oh I know who you are Mr. Lupin. Everybody knows who the Marauders are" she said brightly flipping some hair from her eyes before continuing "I just wanted to acquire as to why you were staring in my direction?"

The wolf wracked his brain trying to think of a more dignified response then 'Your pretty'. He began stuttering "W-well you see- I-I mean... Oh bugger! You must think I'm very strange at the moment don't you" It came more of a statement then a question. Geniveve batted her eyelashes and shook her head "No, not at all. I often stare at things for no reason. Especially the night sky I find that it brings a great sense of tranquility"

Remus didn't know what to say. Just how would one respond to that?

"Would you like some chocolate?" Miss Adolfo kindly asked bringing the teenage boy out from his second reverie.

He stared hungrily yet hesitantly at the treat in her outstretched hand hearing a light giggle.
"It's not going to bite, you know" she laughed.

Lupin reached out and took a large bite from the piece he was given, making a small moaning noise when the delicious substance entered his mouth, as he always did when given chocolate.
She laughed again before taking yet another book from her satchel and opening it to a random page closer to the back.

"What are you studying?" Remus asked taking out his own homework supplies.

""Well I consider it to be more pleasure reading then anything, but it is for 'Care of magical creatures' Professor Kettleburn assigned us the simple task of writing an essay on our creature of choice, one roll of parchment minimum" the brunette explained.

"Oh I already did mine, it was on the 'Erumpet'" he smiled. Though he loved his friends dearly, he rarely ever got to have an intellectual conversation with them, so this was a blessing.

"That's nice, I'm doing mine on Werewolves" she smiled.

Remus felt as though his heart had dropped into his stomach. He swallowed nervously, if he didn't speak soon she may grow suspicious, or just think he had a rare case of Lycanthrophobia.

"Why?" he could of smacked himself at that moment, the best response he could think of was 'why?' Stupid.. Stupid.. Stupid...

"Why?" she mimicked "Because they fascinate me, that's why! I think they're amazing, my friends say I'm obsessed. I wish I knew one, I have so many questions like, If theres something blocking the moon, say.. a cloud or something.. would they still transform?"

Remus chuckled inwardly "No, they have to see the full moon before anything happens" he answered absentmindedly.

Geniveve's brow furrowed thinking about what he had just said "Oh. That's interesting, are you into Werewolves as well?"

Lupin bit his lip trying to suppress a giggle at the irony. "I guess you could say that"
