Typically James got the most presents of all 4 of us. Seeing as he is 'Gryffindor's most good looking Quidditch player' and all that, most of the girls hurried to give their presents to him....only to get rejected. James didn't even care much about the sweets he received, so me and Peter made sure to finish them off.
Poor James was so sad that Evans rejected him once more....! Don't take me wrong! The above phrase was said in sarcasm and not in concern! No, it's not that I don't feel sorry for my friend...it's just...well, let's say, he was asking for it.
He was practically stalking Lily Evans all day in order to give her his present but someone else would always get her alone first, giving her presents and flowers or simply confessing their love. Well, I had no idea Evans was so famous.
James got totally pissed off that others were trying to get 'his' Lily as he was calling her so he ended up chasing behind those poor guys and hexing them behind their backs.
Sooner or later the rumour about James hexing everyone that was around Lily Evans was spread and no one talked to her for the rest of the day. They were all too scared that James would curse them.
Of course, the rumour reached Lily Evans too! So when James approached her to talk to her and give her his present her reply was a very nasty spell that sent him in the hospital wing with some nasty smelling pimples all over his face.
Needless to say the both ended up having to serve detention tomorrow night, together. James is pretty much extatic about it cause he will get to spend time alone with Lily...even if it is detention time!
What can I say? The guy is hopeless....! But at least he was generous enough to let us eat the sweets he received. He said that since he didn't get any presents from Lily he didn't need the rest. He didn't forget to boast about how he got more than the rest of us though...!
I'm not complaining though...I had my own little mountain of sweets and presents as well. I don't care about all those 'admirers' but chocolate is always good! Remus returned every single present he received back to those who sent them. Some girls were in tears and called him 'mean' but he clearly stated that he couldn't accept the presents because he didn't feel the same about them. I also heard him saying something about being in love with someone else!!! I wonder if it is true or if he just said that as an excuse to get rid of the girls who confessed to him.
Hmm...no....I really can't imagine Remus being in love with anyone...except, perhaps, his books!
Of course, Remus, being the sweet person that he is, bought chocolate for all 3 of us (me, James and Peter)! He said that we are his best friends and the ones he loves the most and that he wanted to show his gratitude to us...or well, something like that. Peter and James said something about Remus probably thinking of me as a better friend than them since the chocolate he gave me was bigger and supposedly tastier. I don't understand...they all looked the same to me! Well, Remus said that this not true and that he loves us all equally. He said something about buying 3 pieces of the same chocolate for all of us but later losing one and having to buy a new bar....! But when he got to Honeydukes he couldn't remember what he bought the first time so he just bought this one for me....! Well, it was something like that either way. I offered to switch with James or Peter but Remus started blushing and saying that it isn't polite to switch the presents you receive with others. I don't see what the big deal was....!
Well, enough talk about Valentine's day. I don't particularly care about this day anyway. Maybe cause I have no one to celebrate it with! Not that I need someone...I have my friends and that's all that matters.
