It's two days before Valentines and Regulus Black hasn't asked me out yet. I wonder what's taking him so long. He's always been very punctual with other things. Perhaps he's busy with school work. Perhaps he wants to surprise me. Oh, how romantic.
...On the other hand, he might be waiting for me to make the first move. Hm. Very well. It might not be very traditional, but perhaps it's for the best.

Regulus,
Let's stop pretending. I know you're attracted to me, as I am to you. This coy game has to stop. We can only play hard-to-get for so long.

So many things happening at once! I have recieved a letter of internship in the Ministry of Magic under Undersecretary Bones, how exciting! How about it, Kingsley, Frank? We'll be office mates. I should write to father at once.
