Happy Birthday Doe

Peter nodded at Doe as she agreed to get started. Though the way she’d smiled at him made him feel slightly more at ease, it didn’t completely take the edge off of his thoughts or nervous system. Maybe she wouldn’t bring up Agatha after all. Girls were supposed to be really perceptive right? Maybe Doe just knew he wanted to be the one to tell his mates. Right, everything would be fine, just a good duel. Duel. Realization hit him as he began to back up (stumbling over his own feet in doing so) so that they could take position to bow before beginning. The last Peter knew, Doe was planning on being an Auror. And if memory served him properly, she was bloody good at this sort of thing. While Peter wasn’t exactly terrible if he remained focused, he wasn’t always the best either.
He locked eyes with Doe once before doing the necessary bow (though one he imagined he’d never actually use in a real battle) and readying his wand. Knowing that Doe was so much better at him with duelling, he wasted no time shouting out the first spell that came to mind, regretting a second later for giving her the preparation time of hearing him yell out “Expelliarmus!” It would be too easy for her to deflect the red spell that sped in her direction. Nervously he gripped his wand even tighter with his now sweating hands. If he wanted to keep Doe on her toes he needed to do better than this.

Distractive Dueling || Doe & Peter
Peter made his way to duelling club on Sunday feeling embarrassed. The embarrassment in turn made him feel guilty. He shouldn’t have minded telling Doe that he was bringing Agatha as his date to her party. Date. That word still felt strange to Peter, as it was well known that Peter was the Marauder who generally... didn’t get much attention from girls. Really, he wasn’t even sure how he felt about Agatha. Sure he liked her as a friend, but he’d never really considered much more with girls before. When he’d told Doe about it, he felt so embarrassed, and even more so as he walked to duelling club, knowing she’d be there along with his mates, whom he’d still had yet to tell. He didn’t know why he hadn’t told them, though he readily excused it as having just formed the date earlier that day. The excuse felt weak in his mind, and deep down he knew he’d have to tell them eventually, preferably before the party to avoid further embarrassment. Shaking himself from his thoughts, he rushed the rest of the way to where the club was gathering, not wanting to miss anything.
Peter listened as Frank gave the instructions and rambled off the pairings. Heat rose in his face as his name was closely followed by Doe’s. He wasn’t sure how to face her, knowing she was the only person in the room that knew of his date. He sorely hoped she wouldn’t say anything, fearing his mates catching onto it. A moment later Frank gave the last bit of instructions and everyone broke apart going into their designated pairings. Peter scanned the room quickly, cursing his not-so-tall height before finally catching sight of his fellow Gryffindor. Eager to begin, and hoping to keep Doe busy enough with spells to avoid small talk that could result in his date being ousted before he could tell his mates, he headed over to her quickly. “Hey Doe,” he smiled a bit forcefully, pulling his wand out from his pants pocket. “R-ready to do this?”

Yeah, you should at least give her a few days to cool down... angry birds are right scary. Hm, I guess just do what feels right then mate. I'm afraid I don't have any experience with girls to help much with this... sorry. ...I-- I reckon once you start feeling better and demolish Ravenclaw next month they'll all forget your downward spiral and be swooning again.

Y-yeah she is really sweet, and nice.
I haven't side-alonged since I was a child, so I don't remember it too much thankfully. Yeah, I guess we do tend to get a little loud, don't we?

O-oh, good I'm glad. S-she well, it's uh-- Agatha Timms. From, you know, Hufflepuff.
Tumblr media
I can't wait to be able to apparate to Diagon Alley and everywhere else rather than using the floo now. It'll be so much easier. Uh, yeah I turned in September.

Oh. I know you did mate, you did even before Ma Potter... w-well. I guess it was all just a load of bad timing mate. James I don't reckon you can blame yourself for that. I'm sure you did, at the start... but... Ma and Pa Potter are a bit more important than a bird right now. If... if you two still have feelings, after all this is... sorted... maybe you can convince her try again? I dunno. If not, I'm sure you'll find the right bird for you eventually. Half the girls in Hogwarts would love to be yours, you know?
Tumblr media
No problem Prongs.
Oi, Prongs!

Although Peter first gained possession of his fathers gold watch after his death when Peter was six, he never wore it until his seventeenth birthday. It was lucky, if one could call it luck, that Peter's father never wore the watch to work. Until his sixth year, Peter kept the watch in a locked box hidden in his room for safe keeping. Knowing his mother likely wouldn't remember to send it to him, even if he requested it, he brought it with him to Hogwarts that year, never opening the box until the morning of the 13th of September. Since then he's worn it every day.

It is pretty nice to be of age... once we leave this year we can do whatever we want outside of school.

Did she... I mean... was there a reason? The last I saw her she looked... I just... that's really out of no where mate. I'm sorry. I'm sure she'll regret it later, I can't imagine she'll ever find a bloke better than you. Maybe she'll come 'round and change her mind... if that's, you know, what you want. I dunno if idiots the right word, but yeah... I guess so, just a bit. At least you see your mistakes now mate, you can still fix them. 'Course mate, s'not like I have much to do during the summer anyways. Y-you're welcome Prongs, it's what mates are for, right?

A-are you sure? I don't want to show up to your party empty handed. I'd feel like a prat. Are you excited for it?

 W-wait Annabelle broke up with you? Merlin's beard mate, I'm so sorry. I-- I can't speak for Moony or Padfoot b-but, I won't leave mate. You've just gotta promise that you'll work to put yourself together again. And let me help, or at least be there for you, alright? Prongs mate, all of us have been through things we shouldn't have had to by now I reckon. Ma Potter... she knows you have us to help you. If you want, I c-can come over this summer... show you a few spells and tricks for cleaning and cooking, yeah? I m-might not be the best at them but it's... something. I just know you can do this mate. Right, I'll uh, let you get some rest then?

Oh right. Uh well, I doubt the Slytherin's are all that upset about not being invited to a Gryffindor's birthday party Agatha. A-and really it's probably for the best. We don't really... get along. I doubt Doe wants her birthday to end in a duel. W-well I guess that settles it then. We'll go to Doe's party... t-together.
Tumblr media
Hmm.
I don’t know her personally, but she’s invited every house apart from the Slytherins’, which I do think is quite a shame. They’re not everyones’ favourite people, but they might be sad that they haven’t been invited. I-I’d really like that..Peter. For us to go together..

Oh yeah, I was fine... just hurt a bit to sit for the rest of the day. O-oh, you know Doe? I-it might be a bit different from normal Gyrffindor parties... More people I expect... but uh, if you want... we c-could go to that together.
Tumblr media
Hmm.
Oh- I uh, hope you were alright. Yes, it is. If you’d like to, I mean- that’d be really great. I- I heard that uh, Doe? Yeah, Dorcas; Is having a party next weekend?

Yeah... I actually had to get a new set of robes after... Well uh, yeah. Though it's still pretty noisy at times... I-it is? I-- Uh, I mean, I-- i-it is. S-so I'll l-let you know when the next one is?
Tumblr media
Hmm.
Ouch, it must have really hurt for it to stop all of the noise and such. Well- I mean, it must have hurt that much, that it made you guys stop making a lot of noise. Anyway… Yeah, I’m just rambling on. R-really, well this is just..uh- fabulous!

It can be. Oh er, yeah, you know... exams are getting closer. NEWT and OWL years are diving in and... if we get too loud well... you only need one blast to your arse to learn to be quiet. O-oh... w-well I-- I wouldn't... mind... i-it being a d-date I mean.
Tumblr media
Hmm.
That sounds just as fun. Calmer? Oh, well I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. Well, I-I uh, If you want it to be a date, it can be one.
