Ted Tonks was too tired to think properly. He almost fell asleep head first into his cereal bowl that morning and turned beet red from embarrassment. Studmuffins don't fall asleep in their food. Thank God, he saved himself the utter embarrassment even though he SWORE some girls were laughing at him when he almost did. Those girls were ugly any way.

Except for the one on the right. She was a pretty fit.

But now his chances were ruined since he decided to be an idiot and have the curse of eternal sleepiness. He couldn't show his face in the castle. Some fresh air would wake him up. Going out onto the grounds was perfect! Ted received a new winter coat for the school year too. A great opportunity to show it off!

Now, why was it so bloody coldBy the lake, in the bloody cold and nothing could warm him up ( ... )

When a person sat by the lake for long periods of time, fantasizing always happened. It was a relaxing by the lake given. So, while Andromeda was singing herself a little birthday song, she was imagining what life was going to be like from now on. She was walking down the halls with her head held high, hair bouncing back and forth. New friends were waving at her and she had just made plans to eat lunch with the Hufflepuff Quidditch team tomorrow! She turned a corner, on her way to Astronomy and there he was.

Ted Tonks.

Gorgeous, the most perfect person she had ever seen. He smiled and said “Your Birthday? Happy birthday then. Anyone give you cake yet?"

Wait... she hadn’t fantasized that. Slowly cracking one eye open, the figure of Ted Tonks loomed above her. Oh. My. God. OH MY GOD. She WASN’T ready to engage in conversation with strangers and she REALLY WASN’T ready to engage in conversation with TED FREAKING TONKS. Maybe if she closed her eyes he would vanish, maybe she was imagining him ( ... )

Little slow, but still very cute. Ted had concluded and hey, if the girl was not on the brightside, the better! Right? At least, that's what he thought all those magazines said. Eh, whatever. Still cute. And that's what mattered.

"Lately? No." Ted frowned, reminiscing the great joys of cake around his own birthday. He especially favored chocolate cake with blue icing. God, cake would be excellent right now. A great shame that this girl lacked it. "We could get some from the house elves. I mean, I know the way and all, of course."

Oh yeah, Ted was so suave.

Andromeda could only stare. Stare at his smile, his beauty, his unbelievable charm. He was still talking to her even though she was talking like a right fool. That meant the new clothes and the new hair and the lack of thirty pounds was doing her some good. THE stud, the stud of her DREAMS even, Ted Tonks, was noticing her. This was going to be a good birthday after all!

And... was he... did he just.... he wanted to get her cake from the house elves? Take her, to the kitchens, to get birthday cake?! Andromeda smiled like a girl had never smiled before. This was too good to be true! “That would be nice of you to take me down there. I’m... I’m Andromeda, by the way.” Good! You managed to stand up, form a full sentence, and introduce yourself without tripping over anything!

Now, could she keep the not tripping up on the long walk to the kitchens? People didn’t understand how hard talking and walking could be.

Andromeda? That chubby girl? The one who was related to those unbelievably gorgeous Black sisters in Slytherin that Ted had no chance with, because they hated his guts and wanted him to die? THAT Andromeda? Ted stared, open mouth and all. Gawking. That was what he was doing. Gawking. Not that being Andromeda was a bad thing, but WOW MEGA CHANGE, WHAT WAS THIS?

"Andromeda. Andromeda? Andy? You're in my year, right?" There wasn't another hotter Andromeda that he didn't know about, was there?

Talk about a bizarre day.

Ted shook his head. "I'm...um...Ted. If you didn't know that, but I think you DO. Andromeda, right?" I sound like an idiot, oh my God, oh my God.

The walk was quiet and Ted wondered if perhaps he DID have a foul odor keeping Andromeda away from his personal being again. He walked quickly, feeling like a complete wrecker of situations that could become something so much better. Ted wanted to be suave again. He remembered a time in which he was suave and would then be smacked across the face at least five times a day. Ted could do without the smacking, but this silence seemed almost worse in some way, some how ( ... )

This would go down as the strangest birthday ever. Andromeda would relive it every year in its awkward, twitchy glory. How many times had she almost died of heart spasms and stair traumas? Her life had been threatened too many times in one day... and it still wasn’t over. There was still a trip to the kitchens for cake consumption. Somehow, that would go horribly wrong too. She could feel it. The house elves would poison her because they didn’t like her shoes or something ( ... )

Ted felt like he was just smacked across the face when he saw that Andromeda had also changed her outfit for the occasion. He was very self-conscious of his own clothing choice. It being very plain and worn after all. Andromeda was a pureblood witch, though! Her family name was infamous and…where did she get muggle clothes again? Oh! Someone probably let her borrow them. She was a big name after all.

Then again, Ted had a difficult time remembering her ‘big name’ at the lake.

“Um, yes!” She is the birthday girl, Ted. Say something suave. “I…like your, um, shoes!” And now she probably thinks I’m a poof. He was just failing at everything that day.

After taking a relaxing breath, Ted exited the Hufflepuff common room and entered the halls once more.

“This way, I think!” Ted said, pointing toward the desired location.

Shoes? Her shoes were not that impressive. Just regular chucks, bought and hidden from her very pureblood family... most people had them. But still, he was complimenting HER chucks, not anyone elses. It was cause for a bit of blushing, of course. "Well... thanks. I... I mean, you're shoes are just... spiffing... as well." Okay, spiffing? What was that! Who said 'spiffing ( ... )
