Written for February Event: Teamwork on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry (Challenges & Assignments)

Prompt: (plot/action) Meeting a spouse/loved one for the first time


Fabian Prewitt was staring a little too much at Bellatrix Black during Potions Class. It was the only class where he could get away with not doing anything at all, and have his twin brother do all the work. Of course Gideon didn't agree with the arrangements but it was very rare that he would tell Fabian no. Her attention was focus on the questions that they had to fill out about what the potion did and the characteristics of it. There was a distinctive way she waved her quill slightly as she paused and muttered the question over and over again. Her hair was pulled into a messy bun and the way she was biting her lower lip...

Suddenly her body tensed and she turned her head to meet his gaze. Her dark brown eyes narrowed at him and Fabian quickly looked away with his face burning with embarrassment.

"Hey Fab hand me the quills." Gideon muttered.

Fabian blindly reached for the quills, before shoving them to a general direction towards his brother. The class passed by quickly afterwards and Fabian couldn't wait to leave the class but he was stopped by Bellatrix. She caught his wrist as he tried to get away and spun him around.

"It's you isn't it?"

"I-I don't know what you're talking about." He stammered.

"The one who writes the same card over and over every Valentine's Day." She explained.

He flushed. "What makes you think that I do that?"

Bellatrix rolled her eyes, "You're the only one that stares so much. It's not romantic, in fact it's quite creepy. You do realize there's laws against stalking?"

"I-I'm not stalking you-"

"Listen here Prewitt, I'll make it simple to you blood-traitor: Stay the hell away from me." She snapped before storming out the room.
