This is an extremely short drabble I thought of after watching my new favorite movie, She's the Man. Any of my HSM/HP fans reading this... If you've seen the movie, and enjoyed it, I encourage you to write a story! This catagory is seriously lacking.

I'll probably make this into a short series. Just things that Duke wonders how he didn't notice. I also have two other STM fics in the making. Be on the look out ;)

Disclaimer: I love STM to death, but sadly I do not own it. Or at least the rights to it. I DO have the DVD and Soundtrack ;)


It's a wonder that I didn't know that Sebastian was actually Viola sooner than I did. See, Viola has this distinct smell. Lavender, I think.

I should have been tipped off the second "he" walked into the room, on the very first day. The room filled with the scent of Lavender. Back then though, I had some reservations about my new roomie, and I just wrote it off as another odd quality of his. And trust me. It's not like I make it a habit to go and see how guys smell. But this was unavoidable. "Sebastian" just exuded the flowery smell.

Then, at that carnival, I kissed Viola. The entire time, all I could think of was of how she just radiated the scent. Lavender had clouded my senses. Then, though, Justin was suddenly coming at me. My mind was still high with it, and I learned she was Sebastian's sister.

Lavender, I remember thinking. Sebastian's sister smells like Lavender.

Now Sebastian, he always smelled like Lavender too. He'd be dirty, muddy, sweaty, and gross, but there would always be that underlying scent. I always wondered how a guy could always smell like that. I knew that it wasn't possible.

Come to think of it, I should have known that day against Cornwall that it wasn't Viola/Sebastian playing in that #13 jersey during the first half. For the first time ever, Sebastian smelled like... guy. After half time, we were back out there, and I smelled that familiar scent once more.

But that's all over now. No sense-confusion. Because, you see, I know now that my room make does smell like guy. My girlfriend though... now she smells like Lavender.


Reviews make me extremely happy, and make me want to write more ;)
