-back to Lily Luna's POV


"I guess I'll go to sleep now." I didn't question him about the kiss. I guess I better let it be.

"Uh, yea sure. This way." He gestured to the eccentric-looking staircase-I'm guessing Aunt Luna is behind it.

I stepped on the second floor landing, Lysander closely behind.

"So which is yours?" I stare at the seven or so doors ahead of me.

"The last one on the right." Lysander was almost whispering.

"Are your parents asleep?"

"Yup. I guess so anyway…" he was tip-toeing now, so I followed him.

"Your brother?"

"Dunno."

"Oh hey, Lily Luna!" I heard someone, who I suppose was Lorcan, exclaimed as I pass a seemingly empty room which have its doors open.

"Oh, h-hi." I was startled.

"Lorcan Scamander, if you haven't already know…" Lorcan smiled and offered me a handshake. "Staying for the night, I reckon? This way please." he gestured towards the room beside his own. Lysander just shook his head while trying to hide his smile.

"Why thank you." I smiled and play along with the act.

"Uhm, I guess I'll need to grab some snacks and turn off the lights downstairs. See you guys in a second then." Lysander said while walking backwards towards the stairs.

"Careful!" I said when I noticed that he was inches from tumbling down the stairs.

"Whoops." he turned around and levitate himself for a moment before letting his feet touch the ground again. I then faced Lysander's room and found that Lorcan was already sitting on a very comfy looking chair, looking very comfy in it himself.

"So did he kiss you?" Lorcan, like his brother, is very outright about what he's going to say. It's a fact I both enjoy and dread at the same time… Especially then.

"What?" I decided to play dumb.

"Well he told me he would… So he didn't?" Lorcan looked at me skeptically. "I told him he won't have the guts." He started to pace back and forth in the room, all the time looking at the floor.

"He did actually." I don't know why, but I was laughing.

"He did? Woah." Lorcan was now staring at me. "Really?"

"At least that's what I remember."

"So?" He demanded.

"What?" and this time I'm not playing dumb.

"Hm?" he won't explain himself as he sat back down.

"Wha- OH! No, no… We're not in a relationship or anything… I haven't even sort this other problem I have."

"That other problem with Scorpius? But there won't be any problem with Lysander!" I guess Lorcan was being supportive for his brother. "I mean, even if the problems between us and the Malfoys is now like water under the bridge, it's still there, we can still see the traces, and I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon." Lorcan frowns.

"I don't know, Lorcan." I don't think me being honest is any help at all.

"Just think about it, okay?"

"Yeah sure." I smiled.

"You guys we ran out of snacks." Lysander came as if out of nowhere.

"No worries, I'm going to bed anyway." Lorcan jumped off the chair and went right outside and to his room.

"Right. Me too then." Lysander said.

"Night." I sat on one end of the bed and smiled up at him. "and thanks for lending me your room."

"No problem." Lorcan winked. "Sleep tight and don't let the Nargles bite."
