It's already an honor to have you follow me but do you want me to be your new friend??? I'm so happy, you're a doll 💖

ahhhhhh! @jennieasfrance my darling! im so sorry, i don't know what happened with your ask but i couldn't find it in my inbox anymore! thank god, i saved it on another doc - im sorry you can't read your ask to see how i included things in my response but i hope this is okay for you! (this post included my original reply to your ask below...)

it’s more than okay that you participate with a cupcake request as well, darling, im just sorry that i delivered this so late for you, nevertheless, i hope you enjoyed my ship and thank you so much for participating in my 1k milestone celebration!

i ship you with … James Potter

i. james loves attending your boxing sessions and sometimes even gets involved in them by being the person to hold up the padded gloves for you to aim a strike at. he says very encouraging words every time you strike a good hit. “ooof! good one babe! you’re so powerful!” it always helps you calm down even more to see his encouraging smile and hear his supportive words. He joins you to meditate as well but it takes him a little while longer to settle down than most since he’s always so energetic but when he gets into it, he gets into it — he’s a great partner to have for both activities and you adore him for wanting to spend time with you even when you weren’t feeling the best. but all he knows is that it’ll make you feel better and that’s why he does it.

ii. you’re also there for james whenever he trains for quidditch or has a quidditch match, cheering him on with a big smile on your face, even when you’re in a huge crowd. it doesn’t bother you much because you were there for james and he appreciates you so much for it. he also has a knack for spotting you in the middle of a crowd and when you asked him how he did it, he said “i could never miss those beautiful hazel eyes or your pretty brown hair,”. you were there for him especially whenever he gets severely injured because quidditch is an incredibly brutal sport; you never leave his bedside and tend to his every need. he insists that he doesn’t need to be babied but you can tell that he loves to attention and special treatment so you ignore his claims altogether with a soft smile on your face instead. 

iii. he knows you’re very introverted but he thinks it's so adorable. You two started off as really good friends, he was the extrovert that adopted you, you were his introvert and he helped you get comfortable enough to talk to other people, sometimes even complete strangers and whenever he sees you do it, he always has the proudest grin on his face. back when you were just friends he’d simple clap you on the shoulder with a beaming smile on his face to tell you, you did well but now that you’re together, he pulls you in for a loving kiss and whispers how well you did. 

iv. you two discover taylor swift together and quickly become swifties, saving up together so that you could, one day, attend one of her concerts. that isn’t the only instance james has discovered something to love through you because if it wasn’t for your love of japanese cuisine, he doesn’t think he would have had the chance to fall in love with the food and culture as well — consistently bring beautiful and amazing things into his life and he’s so grateful for every single one, in return, he makes sure to shower you in your favourite chocolates and books. 

v. he was curious as to why you didn’t wear the skirt for the school uniform and found out about your insecurity with your legs. and, although he thinks every single aspect of you is beautiful, he respects your want to cover your legs and doesn’t push you to wear skirts or dresses, compliments your legs every chance he gets and brings spare trousers around for you to swap into if the ones you were wearing accidentally catch fire…because of a prank he and the marauders were trying to pull off… he still begs for your forgiveness to this day despite you insisting that it was an accident and you had already forgiven all of them.

Thank you so much for taking a little bit of your time to write something for me. I'd like to start by saying that you caught me right in my James era, I've been consuming a lot of his stuff lately and you can't imagine how happy I was when you chose him.

i - I LOVE it when I am encouraged in boxing classes and it would make me extremely happy. He's definitely very energetic so I imagine it would be difficult at first but then he wouldn't stop talking about how much meditation helps him sleep better

ii - when I like something I simply support it as much as I can and there is no doubt that I would not only be at every game, but I would be at every training session too, shouting at every victory

iii - This always happens to me, I am adopted by extroverts and the feeling of having someone who wants to help you fit in is very good

iv - I love imagining that one of our favorite things to do together is go out to dinner

v - imagining that there is someone who would think of me with so much love and affection and who would respect my every decision makes my heart melt

I loved everything you wrote, once again thank you very much and congratulations on this great achievement of 1k ❤️

PART ONE

“Nice try, Moony,” Sirius pats his pitiful friend’s shoulder with an apologetic smile. It didn’t start off like this. In the beginning, when Remus first started trying to approach you, whenever he was able — in the great hall or in the corridors —, Sirius laughed at his friend’s miserable attempts but now… now it was just sad. 

“She called me pretty,” Remus sighs sadly, “so why is she always running away from me?” 

“Maybe you’re just too pretty?” Peter muses, scratching the back of his neck bashfully, “I know I wouldn’t dare approach anyone I thought was too pretty,” at his comment, James comes up behind the blonde to wrap an arm around his shoulders and give him a comforting squeeze. 

“Thanks Pete,” Remus musters a weak smile but it isn’t enough to lift his mood. His focus is nowhere in particular as he contemplates the karmic reasons for his current circumstance in love. It was even more difficult to approach you because you were a year younger and a Ravenclaw, meaning that you already spent little time together atop not being in the same year group. 

“At least you two have something in common,” Sirius sighs, his voice straining slightly as he stretches his arms up. 

“Yeah?” Remus prompts, flashing Peter a small smile as he watches James ruffle the dirty blonde’s hair affectionately. 

“You’re a pair of bookworms,” Sirius points to you entering the library with an impressive pile of borrowed books in your arms. Having followed the direction of Sirius’ finger, Remus smiles fondly at your charming mannerisms. A bookworm chasing another bookworm, how fitting. 

Despite his complaints, Sirius became the sole reason Remus spent even more of his spare time in the library — just to catch a glimpse of you. Studying, writing, reading for pleasure or for classes, he’s seen it all and he knows that you know he has. 

Ever since you’ve had that run in with Remus in the hallway, where you embarrassingly called him pretty before running away, he’s been appearing everywhere. It was so sudden, you didn’t know what to do. And he keeps making eye contact with you as well. It’s so flustering that you can’t help but run away. In the beginning, you weren’t able to register any of the emotions behind his eyes but after meeting his gaze so often…

“He’s looking at you the same way you look at him,” your best friend giggles into your ear and earns a shove to the shoulder that only makes her laugh even harder. It makes you frown before the librarian makes her way over and quickly reprimands her. Now you’re the one giggling. 

Remus sees all this and can’t help but sigh, a dopey smile on his face. You just look— ‘so pretty… I want to make her laugh like that all the time…’ Remus thinks to himself. 

“He’s in love…” Sirius gags to his right, his expression pulled into a look of repulsion “it’s so disgusting,” 

Remus rolls his eyes and continues to stare at you, “I’m not as bad as James,”

“Hey!” 

“True…” Sirius muses and is slowly followed by James grumbling pathetically as Peter rubs his back in comfort. 

Just as Remus rolls his eyes and turns his gaze towards you once more, you lock gazes; instead of immediately running away, Remus sees the beginnings of a smile on your lips before your face disappears behind a book. It took an entire month but he’s finally got his foot in the door! He could start singing if he wanted to!    

You weren’t running away anymore so Remus had some confidence that he could finally speak to you and have a proper conversation, he just needed to have the right entrance. 

“Is this seat taken?” Remus asks, holding his breath as he sees your grip on the book cover tighten. You don’t answer and simply stare up at him with your mouth agape so he sits down anyway, not too close but not too far away, “There weren’t any other seats, sorry,” you look around and immediately notice several free seats that he could have sat at. 

“U-Umm…”

“What are you reading there?” If there was one thing Remus learned from Sirius, it was that gentle persistence was key.

“...Standard book of spells, grade 5,” you reply in a soft voice, avoiding Remus’ eyes by focusing on the book in your hands. It seemed like you were both back to square one again since you completely avoided his eyes but he won’t be deterred. 

Remus has seen the large amount of parchment surrounding you when first approaching and now that he’s had a closer look, it’s easy to suspect why, “you have exams coming up?” you affirm his speculation with a hum and a nod, “would you like some help?” 

Whenever Remus saw you studying at the library, he’d take the nearest available seat and tutor you willingly, never taking ‘no’ for an answer— not that you could ever say ‘no’ to him, he wasn't even coercive; he always addressed you with the gentlest tone and with the kindest, most patient eyes you’ve ever been witness to. You were practically a puddle of gloo in the palm of his hands. That didn’t jeopardise your studies, however; Remus was an excellent teacher, better than half of the teachers in the school put together and your performance in class was skyrocketing.  

You saw Remus almost every day for three weeks and your exams were quickly approaching but, rather than become anxious over the approaching dates, you only grew excited at the prospect of proving yourself academically — it was the true Ravenclaw in you.

“Good job,” Remus praises and offers a square of chocolate that you immediately brighten at. These were one of the many highlights of your study dates with the older Gryffindor, he always carried bars of the sweet, creamy treat with him and loved conditioning you into thinking that the taste of academic success was chocolate. You had no complaints, however; you love chocolate and gave it your full, undivided attention whenever given a piece for a job well done. 

Beside you, Remus rests his chin on his palm and smiles in adoration of your precious appearance. You look too adorable eating your prized chocolate for Remus to not lovingly stare at you. It makes you all the more loveable to him and he’s grown addicted to the warm, fluttering feeling in his chest whenever you do something so lovably sweet — happily indulging in his many offerings of chocolate were one of those things. 

“Your exam is tomorrow, right?” Remus muses as you finish up your square of chocolate. 

“Yup!”

“You don’t seem worried,” lifting your gaze up, you find Remus smiling at you with such an admiring stare that you have to look away. You don’t think you’ll ever get used to such affectionate attention from someone that gives you butterflies. 

“I’m pretty confident,” 

“If you get a good grade, I’ll treat you to a butterbeer in the next Hogsmeade weekend,” his promise catches you off guard; you believed that your little ‘dates’ were restricted to school work only so his proposal and all of its implications warmed your chest like no other, “if not, then I’ll treat you to anything you want at Honeydukes,” 

“R-really?”

“I wouldn’t lie to you,” his eyes told you everything you needed to know to trust in his words. 

With a shy nod and a soft, “alright,” the date was set; both of you knew that you were going to pass with flying colours so there wasn’t any need for such a condition — Remus should have just asked you out plain and simple but… he gets shy around you too. In a spontaneous act of courage, however, Remus leans over and presses a gentle kiss to your forehead, holding your chin in between his thumb and pointer finger. 

With mutually hot cheeks, you two look into each other’s eyes with awe, “I really hope you get those grades,” he whispers just as a small assembly of gasps, encouraging shouts, shoving and hitting could be heard in the background. The marauders sat across from you, on a separate table, and saw the bold move Remus just made. And, of course, it was their job to embarrass him as much as possible by purely uplifting his romantic venture. 

“Way to go, Moony!”

“Scored a date, did ya’?! Lucky bastard!”

“Save some forehead kisses for us too, okay?” As Sirius flutters his lashes dramatically, Remus takes the book in his hand and whacks them all upside the head as you remain seated with your racing thoughts and pounding heart. 

“Shut your trap, we’re in the library,” Remus scolds, voice stern and eyes cold, a contrast to his usually soft demeanour around you. It was quite attractive seeing a different side to him. And, like clockwork, you begin to daydream of the brunette, eyes still fixed on his tall, broad figure when he turns to face you with a smile, as beautiful as can be.

You really hope you get those grades too… 

A/N : this was highly requested and was also requested for my recent 1k milestone event. i'm sorry this took such a long time to write, the request was for a first date scenario and i suppose the do go on a date (several dates) in this part but it's not official, i think a third part is on its way for their real first date
