MARAUDERS.
Chapter 16.
╚═══════✧₊∘╝The first day of classes have exhausted out most of the students, their summer holidays made them too dependant on late night and even later lie-in in the mornings.
"I mean, having somewhere where we can chill out and have some fun at the end of the day is fun" Lorenzo says excitedly to his group of friends.
They're heading up to the Room of Requirement on the seventh floor, where Hera has the Four Founders bar set up for the students.
"Mate, don't pretend that you aren't just excited to see Hera, and beg her for forgiveness at how much of an arse you were to her last night" Mattheo taunts Lorenzo.
Lorenzo has been acting twitchy and nervous since Theodore mentioned coming to Four Founders this evening.
"Mattheo Riddle, I could set Hera on fire and feed her to a basilisk, and somehow you and Artemis would still look more toxic" Lorenzo informs Mattheo.
Lorenzo had felt like he wouldn't be able to get Hera to forgive him. Seeing how Artemis and Mattheo have been with one and other today has given him a lot of hope that he can be forgiven.
"You and Hera aren't toxic to one and other, you just can't make your mind up if you want to purse her or Penny Sweeting" Mattheo tells Lorenzo.
"Yeah, because you, Artemis and Imelda are a completely healthy love triangle" Lorenzo argues back to Mattheo.
"Is it a triangle? There seem to be a lot of people involved in this web of romantic entanglements" Theodore scoffs.
"That includes you as well" Lorenzo reminds Theodore. "You know, when Artemis dumped you for Mattheo?" Lorenzo had to live through the drama of it last year.
"Thanks for the reminder, Enzo!" Theodore growls through his gritted teeth, he doesn't like to think of his ex-girlfriend dumping him for his best friend.
"Hey, it worked out for the best, you're playing the field" Mattheo feels obligated to give Theodore a bright side to the poison of last year.
The three Slytherin boys stop before the wall of the Room of Requirment, and wait for the doorway to form.
"Lads, we've come to have a good time and unwind tonight" Lorenzo sighs to his two best friends. "How about we just have some fun tonight, and try not to cause any more shit with the girls?" Lorenzo feels like its an impossible task, but he's optimistic.
"Agreed" Mattheo and Theodore tell Lorenzo, neither of them are optimistic they'll have a night without drama.
Mattheo pushes his way inside of the Four Founders.
Hera and the Weasley twins have done a great job at decorating the place. It's a real hole in the wall vibe.
The bar is highly polished wood, and carved with all of the crests of the four houses. Behind the bar is large barrels of alcohol and other beverages.
A pool table spans across one of the areas, and students are bustling around it, intrigued by the muggle game.
The place is packed with students of all ages, mingling, spending their money on the drinks and snacks behind the bar.
And there is even a band playing in the corner, they aren't real (as they're a creation that comes along with the room), but they still sound good.
"Geez, this place looks amazing" Theodore chuckles. "I can definitely get used to this place" Theodore tells his boys. "Now let's go and see who's up for a good night" Theodore laughs.
