A small, dirty blond boy walked into his dorm, already occupied by 3 other boys. One with long, black hair, sprawled upon a bed, reading over the shoulder of a boy with brown hair and a scarred face. The last boy with messy hair and glasses was on his own bed, lying down and playing with a yellow, flying ball with wings.
The minute the door opened, everyone dropped what they were doing and stared at the smaller boy, who started backing up, like prey – realising it walked upon its predators.
Quickly – the boy with the messy hair and glasses, closed the door behind the blond boy, trapping him inside.
Like a documentary, when the prey gets caught and is about to be eaten, the boy’s Adam’s apple bobbed, as he nervously gulped.

“You weren’t about to run, were you?” Sirius asked, walking closer to Peter.
“N-no,” Peter answered nervously, shaking his head.
“We’re waiting for an explanation, Pete,” James smiled at him, but his eyes stayed the same – predatory.
An outsider watching in, would have never guessed that these 4 boys were actually best friends.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Peter feigned innocence, aiming for his bed, avoiding the conversation.
“You know, we won’t leave you alone, until you tell us,” said Remus.
The dirty blond boy looked up at the three faces staring at him, and sighed.
“Okay, let me explain.”

“A cologne ? You’re doing all this for a cologne ?” one of the boys spoke up through their laughter.
“And I will do a lot more , if I have to!” Peter said, with a chuckle, causing the other three to break out into laughter again.

Gilderoy was quite popular, if you were to ask him. He was smart, funny, and he always got compliments for smelling good.
His life was quite normal, a routine repeating. Until Pettigrew decided to turn his life upside down.
When a nice, blond boy with a pretty face asked Gilderoy what cologne it was, Gilderoy’s mind started working at high speed.
Because at that moment, he realised many many things.
- he liked the attention he was getting from Pettigrew
- he never wanted it to stop
- Pettigrew said, he'd stop talking to Gilderoy the minute he told him the name of the cologne
therefore
- Gilderoy cannot ever, ever, tell Pettigrew what cologne it is.
But Pettigrew was persistent. He kept talking to him, and coming up with weird intricate and complicated plans just to get the name of the cologne.
Gilderoy wasn't stupid, he knew the attention that was on him, wasn't on him , but on the cologne he used.
Yet he still liked it. He enjoyed attention, of course, but he found out, he enjoyed the attention he got from Pettigrew more than from anyone else.
It was weird. Gilderoy didn't understand it. There just was something about the boy, the persistence to find out the name – it was admirable.
Pettigrew’s determination to find out the cologne, therefore talking to Gilderoy constantly, caused a few rumours.
Dating rumours.
Gilderoy knew it wasn't true, he didn't like that people believed something that wasn't true. He tried to clear up the rumours, but nothing worked.
The rumours were just as persistent as Pettigrew.
And just like with Pettigrew – Gilderoy didn’t mind them as much as he should.

As Gilderoy mentioned before – he was smart. He knew Pettigrew was after the cologne..
But
Why
The
FUck
Was Pettigrew flirting with him?
That was so not going to help the dating rumours.

“Soo, you’re going to the huge party today?” Peter inquired.
Lockhart just shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know, maybe..” he said with a bored voice.
If there was one thing Peter learned by talking to Lockhart so much, it was that he was very nonchalant. Wayy too nonchalant for it to be real nonshalantness.
“Cool cool cool. I assume you’ll get ready before going, yeah?”
Lockhart side eyed him. “Ehm what?”
“You’re going to use the same cologne? The one you always wear.. what was the name…” Peter pretended to try to remember.
“I told you, I don’t remember, go away Pettigrew,” Lockhart waved him off, like a vermin.
Well he was a rat.. but still.
WAIT
THAT’S IT!
