after taking a quick shower and changing her clothes luna-rose headed back over to hogsmeade. she was rather excited it was a friday and her shift, which she switched with a friend for an earlier one, was done with. she was free to do whatever she wanted and all that was racing through her mind was freedom and enjoying herself. humming a cheery, random tune the girl continued to walk about without a care. it did not matter where she would end up, all she knew was that today was going to be a good day.
she not only finished her work early, but she had no home-work and her last prank had gone off without a hitch. what could make this day better? something sweet. the moment her mind thought of sweets, luna-rose turned herself toward the direction of the infamous sweetshop. while browsing the shop the cheery expression the petite girl never faded. it did not matter how many odd concoctions and treats she passed, the fact that there were enough of her favorites about made the weird stuff fade out of view.

James was having one of those hazy, sort of unfocused kind of days. The kind of day where one can't help but float around not, really paying mind to most things, and most people for that matter. James Knew that all attempts at virtually Anything would be in vain today. He had just been snapped out of a daydream that he could not quite remember afterward by the sound of his own rumbling stomach, he hadn't eaten since breakfast and was growing hungry. But what to eat? He was definitely in the mood for something sweet, maybe something to help wake him up a little. Honeydukes, he would be able to get his sugar fix there. He thought of how Lily would react if she knew that he was planning on have candy for lunch. The thought of her saying "Jamie, why don't you eat some real food!" made him snicker as he made his way to the candy shop. Good thing she wasn't there, because James knew that if she tried she could get him to eat a "good meal". She could get him to do just about anything by pulling the cute little sister card out on him. And though he usually didn't mind, sometimes he wished really he was more indifferent toward her, more like was toward his brother. The shop was less busy than usual, but not completely void of patrons. The one who stuck out most to James was Luna-Rose, a petite Ravenclaw from his year who he had taken somewhat of a liking to; he rather enjoyed teasing her at any given opportunity. As far as he could tell, she hadn't noticed him walking in. He quietly walked up to her from behind her and rested his chin on the top of her head. Mostly Just to show of how much taller he was than her. Th"Hey there, Rosey. What're you up to on this fine day?" He said a little sleepily, and though he knew she couldn't see his face, he smirked.

internally cringing at the nickname luna-rose commented, stop calling me rosey, you know i hate that nickname. the only man who got away with calling her that was her father and he even knew never to call her that, especially since she had the habit of ignoring her father afterwards. but rather than thinking about the horrid nickname she said, shopping for sweets, you jamie?
a slight pout appeared on her face as she noted how much taller james was. being a girl who was only 5' 3 ½" who weighed only 109 pounds, which was rather tall considering how her mother was only 5' 2 ½" while her father was 5' 11 ½" but she took after her mother more than her father unfortunately, she often found herself asking in a slightly childish, pouty tone, jamie do you have to rub in how tall you are?
instead of pushing james away though luna-rose kept still while trying to grab a rather large plastic bag, but kept on failing. a soft frustrated sigh escaped the black-haired female. biting her lower lip she awkwardly poked james in the side with her right hand while innocently asking in a slightly singsongy voice, jaaammmmiieee, wanna do me a favor? would you mind grabbing a large plastic bag for me and holding it during my entire sweets shopping spree?

James could hear the irritation in the girl's voice and smirked even more, he had accomplished his goal "Oh, right. Sorry. Would you prefer loony?" and there was her new nickname. Was there any end to Jame's cleverness? No, he thought not. "shopping for sweets, you jamie?" James tried to imagine the look on her face at that moment, because she was no doubt making some cute little pout, the way she usually would when he was annoying her. Which by Jame's estimation, was always. "Well, it just so happens that I am here for that exact same reason. I honestly never would have guessed that two people in Honeydukes would both be looking for sweets!" his sarcasm was evident jamie do you have to rub in how tall you are? James Chuckled at the girl as she tried and inevitably failed to reach something above her "Yes. Yes I absolutely do. What can I say? It's one of those things, I wouldn't expect you to understand." He said said focusing on Luna-rose's attempts to reach one of the bags that were just out of her reach. James thought the sight was absolutely the most hilarious thing. It was made even more amusing when she gave up, poked his side, and practically sang "jaaammmmiieee, wanna do me a favor? would you mind grabbing a large plastic bag for me and holding it during my entire sweets shopping spree?" He gave a small laugh as he easily reached one of the bags. How could he refuse an offer like that? The answer: he couldn't "I mean as long as you don't mind sharing. I'll buy." he offered looking around the shop, eyeing each of the many sweet splendors "But where to start?

scowling, even more luna-rose than before which currently seemed impossible but some how james sirius potter made it possible, no. i'd like to be called luna-rose , the parents my mother and father gave me, thank you very much.
giving james another awkward poke she said in a frustrated tone, oh you know what i mean jamie. the frustrated faded as she found herself pouting like a little child, hmph! well you would never understand the pain of a shorty's life. the only beneficial thing about being short is you can hide, a lot more easily, but really that does not make up for the fact that i have to basically grab a stupid stool to grab everything at home or at hogwarts or even while shopping. seriously, stores, schools, and home should be more short-person friendly!
a bright smile appeared on her face as she turned around and gave the dark-haired boy a tight hug, but not before adding, we can split the price, i have my tips from work thanks to an early shift and mikey switching shifts with me. it was not that she was touched by james' offer, it was more that she would of felt guilty had he actually bought everything, especially since she knew she was going to fill the entire bag to the top.

James ignored Luna-Rose's Protest against her new nickname, and rolled his eyes as she went on a tirade about the woe of being a short person in a tall person's world. James always seemed to say thing the exact right thing to send her into these annoyed rants. It almost made him regret his comment, almost but not quite. He was actually surprised when the girl turned around and hugged him tightly; he would never really understand the way she could go from being funny and naggy to being cutely affectionate. It was just something that he had to accept, this girl was nuts; especially when it came to her candy, apparently. However, he was not surprised when she offered to pay for half. One of those "independent woman" things he guessed. His sister and mother were the same way, so he supposed it wasn't weird. On the other hand, he couldn't say that the women in his family weren't weird, or the men for that matter. He pushed the train of thought out of his had before he could go on an internal rant about what normal even was. He nodded in agreement "Though I was planning to be a chivalrous gent, I suppose half and half would be fair enough."

biting her lower lip luna-rose attempted to hide her bright smile before commenting, considering how i'll be filling the bag to the top, the least i can do is pay for my share, but i'll remember that you offered to buy me and share with me candy, that goes a very long way with me. candy was something she enjoyed and loved.
it was the very thing that managed to get this girl through not only work, schoolwork, practice, but her social life as well. sure she also had the benefits of caffeine in the sodas and sweet coffee, never bitter because she despised the taste of bitterness that black coffee had, but without the extra sugar candy gave her she knew she would most likely collapse from a lack of energy.
as she looked about the store the bright grin never faded that was until she noted the cockroach clusters. cringing a little she gagged while saying, just…don't get cockroach clusters. anything that is shaped like a vile cockroach or named after should never be sold, ever.

James laughed "And exactly how far is a very long way?" he asked, he knew she hadn't meant it in that way but couldn't resist "Maybe I should offer to buy things for you more often. Or does it only work with candy?" he laughed again, watching as Luna-Rose scanned the store with her eyes. The look of excitement on her face briefly turned to one of disgust "just…don't get cockroach clusters. anything that is shaped like a vile cockroach or named after should never be sold, ever." he hadn't been planning on it. He didn't actually like them that much, but again he couldn't pass up the chance to annoy Luna-Rose, even a little "Aw, but those are my favorite!" he lied, and considering that grin painted on face, James guessed it was pretty unconvincing. "Okay, whatever. But we need to get at least some chocolate frogs. Those aren't too gross for you are they?" he asked, there was basically nothing to him than plain old chocolate. It was simply good.

rolling her eyes luna-rose responded in a teasing tone, i don't know, maybe you should try to find out yourself. as she looked about the store she began listing the things that made her eternally grateful to anyone, candy, stuffed animals, mangas, and anything cute. but the gleeful tone she once held disappeared as she heard the joke.
scrunching up her nose a look of disgust appeared as she swirled around out of shock before commenting, ew! no one's going to kiss you if you eat those foul things! but the moment she saw the rather large grin instead of a frown, she poked james, properly, in the side before asking, why do you insist on teasing me?
biting her lower lip an excited expression appeared as she said, chocolate frogs are okay, everything is okay, just no cockroach clusters, ever. actually…no. take that back, the gross flavors of bertie bott's every flavour beans are another thing i despise candy-wise. anything and everything else is amazingly epic.

"ew! no one's going to kiss you if you eat those foul things!" James laughed, it was almost like she was begging him to tease her "Was that an offer?" he smirked and leaned down a little to look her straight in the eyes "Because it's fun, and I will stop insisting on teasing you once you stop insisting on being so funny when you pout. Deal?" he said though he sort of hoped she wouldn't take him up on that deal, he straightened up again and walked over to where the chocolate frogs were "chocolate frogs are okay, everything is okay, just no cockroach clusters, ever. actually…no. take that back, the gross flavors of bertie bott's every flavour beans are another thing i despise candy-wise. anything and everything else is amazingly epic." he was only have listening as he took a hand-full of the candies and put the in their bag. "What? You don't like the gross Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans? And here I thought they were only reason people bought those!" he said making sure to lay the sarcasm on extra thick this time "Dirt's my favorite!" James walked over to the Betie Bott's and tossed a couple small packs of beans into the bag.

a faint blush appeared at james joke. being uncertain how she would sound luna-rose instead just shook her head while gently poking james in the side. but her embarrassed, shy side disappeared at his following comment. sticking her tongue out at james she huffed, in a child-like manner, i do not look funny while pouting jamie. grabbing a hand full of fizzing whizzbee luna-rose smiled before commenting, of course, i wanna eat a jelly bean that tastes like vomit, of course. but the sarcastic tone in her voice changed as she saw another chocoballs, chocoballs! rushing over to the stand she began cheerily doing a little dance, she did not care that she looked like a little kid. she could not help herself, candy brought this childish side out of her.

James smirked, and had to hold back a laugh as Luna-Rose poked him again "i do not look funny while pouting jamie. "I didn't say you looked funny, I said you were funny. There's a difference, you know." James then watched as Luna-Rose collect hand full of fizzing whizzbees "of course, i wanna eat a jelly bean that tastes like vomit, of course." James doubted that she even heard him laugh when she practically screamed "chocoballs!" of course this just made him laugh even harder "Just so you know, You're making a very similar face to that thing on your jumper." he said pointing to the monster like thing on the front of her hoodie before taking a few hand fulls of chocoballs and putting them in the bag.

[/b] biting her lower lip the girl continued to gleefully dance until she heard the comparison. a small pout formed as she huffed, but in a rather overly-dramatic manner, ohhhh, you're a big meanie jamiekins and his name is domo thank you very much. though it was not the best of insults, she could not help herself it was something she just wanted to say, especially since she did not really mean it which was evident when she continued to smile brightly. but what added to the bright grin was the fact that another one of her favorites was right next to the chocoballs, sugar mice. grabbing a couple of the cute little mouse-shaped sugar luna-rose excitedly said, the candy we're getting right now will last me will last me a week or two, hopefully.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/ul]

James ignored the girl's complaints, as he usually did "ohhhh, you're a big meanie jamiekins and his name is domo thank you very much." this was too much though, and James let a loud laugh "Well, excuse me. And Jamiekins? Really I'd say that's worse than Loony!" even if she had just been joking, James found the fact that Luna-Rose could make up any terrible nickname for him that she wanted rather hypocritical since he was not allowed to do the same to her. Of course that didn't stop him, she could nag him about it until they both died for all he cared. As she went back to filling the bag with candy, sugar mice to be more specific, James took a second to realize just how awesome his life was at that moment. It was something that his mother always reminded him to do every once in a while "the candy we're getting right now will last me will last me a week or two, hopefully." this comment sort of snapped James out of this pleasant stupor, similar to the one he had experienced earlier that day. He really needed to get some sugar into his system, ASAP "You sure? I would have guessed less judging by the fact that you're practically always off the walls. Like, a week, maybe less." he wasn't actually sure if Luna-Rose's hyperactivity was due to a constant sugar high or if she was just a naturally cheerful person.

[/i]. if you cannot take it, do not dish it![/b] a pout, more like scowl, appeared as she stuck her tongue out at james before huffing, humph! i’m not always off the walls, i’m only like this when i’ve had sugar in my system or i’m excited about something, jamiekins. though it was hypocritical of her to call james a horrid nickname while saying he could not, she could not help herself. she wanted, no needed, something to hold against him especially since he had not only loony but rosey against her.
