"You'd be a great boyfriend. Anyone would be lucky to date you."
"No, anyone would be lucky to date you."
"Like anyone would turn down the coolest, best athlete hogwarts has ever had."
"And no one could resist a date with the prettiest punk rocker the world has ever seen."
Frank rolled his eyes at the two younger teens that had joined his table in the library and had not yet said a single word to him, "why don't you two just date each other?"
The two mocked throwing up, staring at each other in utter disgust.
"James?" Sirius grimaced, "I've never once seen him shower in all the years we've lived together!"
"Well you eat like a dog and I bet you'd kiss like one too!" James threw back.
"At least I can look at a light without freezing up!"
"Well whoever dates you would end up getting fleas!"
"Better than getting woken up cause you're boyfriend's started growing prongs out of his bloody head."
Frank huffed, closing his textbook, "What are you two on about?"
James ignored him, looking at Sirius, "I pity whoever ends up somehow falling for you!"
Sirius stood up from the table, "Well it'd be a miracle if you ever got a date!"
James suddenly pouted, "It would be! Lily's never going to like me back."
Sirius instantly went round the table to James' side, "No! She'd be a fool not to fall for you. You're the best looking lad here!"
James snorted in laughter, "You're the best mate ever."
"I'd have to be to keep up with you", Sirius grinned, sitting down half on James' lap as James wrapped his arm around Sirius' waist.
Frank pointed his quill at them, "What just happened there?"
James looked at him, "Oh hey Frank. We wanted to know if we could have an hour extra quidditch practice tonight."
Sirius groaned, "he did. I was hoping for an hour less; I've got a potions essay due tomorrow morning."
Frank banged his head against the table before looking at the two in exhaustion, "Practice will be the same length as normal. And Sirius, just do the essay now."
They wrinkled their nose, "That's the worst thing you've ever said to me, Frankie."
"How dare you suggest that?" James added, shaking his head in disappointment, "We're going to tell Alice and she's going to dump you."
Frank leaned back in his chair and stared at the two, "Leave. Now. I'll see in four hours."
Both sprang up.
"Fine, fine!" Sirius said, hands up in surrender."
James doing the same, "We're going, we're going!"
Frank opened his textbook back out as they started walking away, "Wait, actually don't tell Alice about that!"
The two turned around in a creepily synchronised manner, and pressed a finger to their lips.
"We solemnly swear!" Sirius shouted, for some reason making James burst out in laughter.
Pince chased the two out, and Frank felt the beginning of a headache coming along.
Well... that's just going to get even worse after practice.
