Lily is going to fail her potions exam
Lily had been trying to study for hours, completely unable to focus since she opened that stupid letter from her stupid sister whose opinion had absolutely no bearing on her day!
She was definitely going to fail her potions exam.
“Lily, you’ve been here for hours.” Remus sounded quite concerned, his worry only growing when he saw the hopeless expression on her face.
“You’d think that after this long I’d feel like I’m in good shape.” She said, defeated.
Remus sat down next to her and began closing her books.
“Remus, what are you–”
“I’m cutting you off. The exam is in two days. Take tonight, get a good sleep, and I promise I’ll quiz you on all of this tomorrow. It’s not productive to keep going over stuff you’re too tired to retain.” Remus finished putting everything away and turned to her, raising his eyebrows: “We clear?”
Lily snatched her bag from him and stared in awe.
“I hate it when you get all preachy.” She finally said, standing up and ruffling Remus’s curly chestnut hair. “Tomorrow night at seven?”
“Wouldn’t miss it for the world.” Remus grinned up at her from his seat. James owed him big time.
