Thoreau waited for Pansy in the common room, twirling the rose he'd picked her between his fingers. Rider kept looking at him funny from the other side of the common room and he was hoping Rider didn't feel guilty and tell Pyxis and fuck up his friendship with her or something equally stupid. He looked like he was tempted to. He had a glint in his eye that said desperate to Thoreau.

Rider felt on edge. He kept dreaming about cock, which was fucked up. More than fucked up. He looked down at Pyxis and gave her a small smile, doing his best not to look at either of the Lestranges. Even if Rex was in his chair again. "Should we go?" he asked her. "We want a good table at the pub."

Draco didn't approve of Pansy going on a date wit Thoreau Lestrange, who he hadn't really heard of before the memories Charlie had shown him. He stood with Merlin, watching Pansy primping in his mirror. "What do you even know about Lestrange?" he asked, trying not to sound as petulant as he felt. "You really want to spend the whole day with him?"

June ignored the rest of Slytherin, walking through the common room and out the door, on her way to meet Regulus for their date. Her dad wasn't going to be very happy if he found out about it, but that made it even better. June was tired of her life being controlled. Plus, Regulus could turn into a puppy and play fetch with her. What wasn't to like?

"Orange cake with a buttercream frosting." Pansy smiled up at him. "But, that's only if I'm assuming you don't mean cheesecake. Because I love cheesecake. However, my mother tells me I can't eat it because it's too fattening."

"We are his friends." Pyxis pointed out as she looked up at Rider and frowned. "Honestly, could you be a little less rude, please? Have I ever given you a reason to be like this? Ever? I've been with you since I was four. Grow up, Rider."

Merlin sighed heavily and shook his head. "We've always been more than friends, Draco." He told him. "We've always been each other's worlds."

"What if you have a son with me?" Regulus arched a brow as they walked, grinning at her. "What if he's your son too?"

"Really?" Thoreau asked, raising an eyebrow at looking Pansy over. "You mother has seen you before, right? You're tiny. No wonder you're shivering in the cold." He smiled at her. "You can get cheesecake today if you want. I won't tell anyone."

Rider was not Luka's friend. He frowned back at Pyxis. "I'm grown up," he told her. "I see the way he looks at you. And I think I've made it pretty clear how I feel about someone from a school full of rapists looking at you that way."

Draco was pretty sure that was an exaggeration, given the memories Charlie had shown him, but he nodded. "You should show me some of your memories of us," he told Merlin. "It'll help me recover everything. Honeyduke's first today?"

June laughed. "It's a bit soon to be talking about our potential kids, don't you think?" she asked. "I guess if Paco is my kid too I'll have to hold back on the teasing. Try to be a good parent."

"My mother believes a woman is not at her best if she's overloads her body with sugar and unnecessary carbs." Pansy replied to Thoreau with a bit of an eye roll. "It's ridiculous, honestly."

Pyxis sighed softly and looked up at Rider. "Why are you being like this?" She asked him quietly. "Why are you being this way with me? What have I ever done to warrant this sort of behaviour? Why are you so on edge about everything?"

Merlin sighed softly and nodded. "Alright. Fine. I'll show you some of my memories of us. I just wish that you'd remember on your own." He told him, then shrugged. "If that's what you want."

"It's never too soon to talk about potential kids. You weed out the psychos when you do." Regulus pointed out, leading her into Hogsmeade. "The people who agree to have your child on the first date are the psychos."

"Has your mother never heard that women are made of sugar and spice and everything nice?" Thoreau asked, raising an eyebrow at Pansy. "Carbs fall under everything nice. If you order cheesecake today, I won't tell if you don't."

"It's not about you. It's about him and the way he looks at you," Rider told Pyxis, lowering his voice too. "He doesn't care that you have a boyfriend. He doesn't care that we're happy together. He just sees you as a trophy he could have."

"Thanks," Draco said, feeling a bit amused at how petulant Merlin seemed about showing him the memories. Was this what Pansy put up with from him all the time? "If it's too much work, don't worry about it."

June laughed. "Did I pass?" she asked. "Or am I psycho? I wouldn't be surprised if I was. I know where I come from." She looked at Regulus as they walked into the village. "Where do you want to eat?"

Pansy smiled at Thoreau. He was kind. She leaned in and kissed him softly on the cheek before nodding. "Cherry cheescake?" She asked, arching a brow at him, then grinning.

Pyxis looked up at Rider for a moment, then grabbed him and pulled him into a deep kiss. It lasted a long moment before she pulled back and searched his eyes. "I love you, Rider. I would never hurt you. Do you hear me?"

"It's not too much work." Merlin snapped and then took a deep breath. "Sorry. It's just that... it's really frustrating that you can't remember me. And you spend all your time with Pansy. Like you remember her and not me. And it's just... horrible."

Regulus looked up at her for a moment, then arched a brow. "What do you mean, where do I want to eat? Broomsticks, of course. Where else would we eat?"

"Sounds great," Thoreau said, leading Pansy into Hogsmede and heading for Puddifoot's. Hopefully it wouldn't be too crowded. "I've never actually been here before. There's never been anyone I wanted to take."

Rider looked down at Pyxis for a moment. He wasn't sure it was true, because he'd done something he knew would hurt Pyxis if she found out about it. But he nodded, touching her hair. "Yeah, I hear you," he said. He kissed her again. "Sorry. Just... Let's spend time not with him today too."

Draco eyed Merlin for a moment and then decided it was probably best not to tell him that was basically the case. "It's not like I'm doing it on purpose," he pointed out. "Your father says the memories will come back to me. Everything will work out."

"I don't know. Hogshead? Puddifoot's?" June grinned at Regulus. "I approve of Broomstick's, though. I want chips and a butterbeer and not to be surrounded by a lot of pink and really uncomfortable boyfriends."

"So I'm your first?" Pansy smiled at that. To think that she was the first person that Thoreau had ever taken to Puddifoot's made her feel very special. "I think I like that. I'll make sure your first experience is good."

Pyxis slipped her hand into Rider's and nodded, then kissed him tenderly on the lips. "I love you." She whispered, pulling back and slipping her hand into his own. She squeezed it and began to tug him towards Hogsmeade. "Just you and I."

Merlin sighed softly and closed his eyes. "If you say so." He told him as they headed towards Honeydukes. "More coconut?"

"I honestly didn't take you for a Puddifoots kind of girl." Regulus replied with a shrug as he led her to the Three Broomsticks, opening the door for her. "After you, Miss."
