"That helps too." she said with a smile. Remus' compliment didn't make her blush like Atticus' did, but she didn't think that was a bad thing. She definately felt more comfortable talking to Remus than she did Atticus, who made her feel nervous, and a bit self concious, which fro a part Veela was absolutely ridiculous, 'Veela don'tget self-concious' her grandmother used to say.
"That's not being dumb, that's being honest. That's a good thing, don't be embarrassed about it." Jaimi took a piece of gum, the sight of it reminding her of Sirius and how he always smelled of it. "Yeah, of course," she said, shutting the book and putting it in her bag. "Anything in particular?"

He smiled at her words and nodded. "Well, I'm glad you think like that. Most girls would have blown me out of the water for such a sloppy compliment." He laughed. "I suppose I get a bit self conscious around girls. But you're different. I find you easy to talk to. I usually feel intimidated, but not by you."
He closed his book and leaned across the table, clasping his hands together in front of him. "Well, I was having problems with some of the more complexed Transfiguration spells. I mean I can transform inanimate objects into other inanimate objects, but not Transfigure inanimate objects into living things."

"I'm not most girls." she said simply with a shrug, the was for definite, most girls weren't part Veela with an abusive twit for a Father, bully for them. "I don't see the point in being intimidating, you push all the nice guys away just by being two faced, and nice guys will at least make good friends even if they aren't interested in you."
She listened to what Remus was asking her, her brain flicking through the theory of what he was asking as he spoke and she considered her reply. "What wand movement are you currrently using, and are you consistent with what you're doing?" she asked, deciding to get a little more information before deciding how easy it would be to help him.

Remus smiles a little at what she says. He shifts a little in his chair and considers whether she thought he was a nice guy. "I guess you're right. I like your way of thinking, and you're definitely not like most girls." He smiled. When she asked him about what wand movement her was doing he discreetly took out his wand and moved it through the air with a circular motion, then pointed it He looked at her expectantly.
"I know I'm doing something wrong. Maybe if I just add a flourish to it or something?" Remus liked to get things right. He was of the opinion, that if it's not worth doing well, then It's not worth doing at all.

Jaimi watched as Remus shifted in his chair, considering what she had said. She decided to leave that conversation where it was, hopefully they would be spending more time together and could continue it then.
She watched as he made a circle and jabbed the air with the tip of his wand. She smiled, "What you're doing is basically fine, but try to make the transition from circle to jab more fluid." she pulled his parchment towards her ignoring whatever else was on it, and picked up his quill. "Like this." She drew a circle and as she swept the quill into the centre it left a soft trail of ink, and the dot in the middle was perfectly central, and had no more pressure behind it than the circle. "make the movement smoother, and don't bring your wand forward of the circle for the jab. "Try it." she said pushing the parchment and quill back to him.

He watched her draw the diagram and listened to her instructions. He nodded his head and looked at the diagram, as she moved it closer to him. He picked up his wand again and tried to copy the diagram. "Like this?" He asked, as he made the movements more fluid. He did the action a few more times, as he tried to perfect it, before he put his wand down again. "I will practice that more. Can I keep the diagram?"

She watched as Remus made the wand movement, and nodded at his question. Each time he did it the movement became smoother and more natural. "That's much better," she said with a nod.
"Of course you can keep it, it's on your parchment." she laughed softly "Anything else I can help you with?"

He grinned and blushed. "Oh yeah. Sorry." He was happy though that she was pleased that he was getting it. He looked thoughtful, as she asked him her question. "I don't think so?" He said slowly. "Maybe though if I do need help with something...I could come ask you?" He looked at her a moment, before picking up his wand and putting it back in his pocket.
He would like to be able to talk to her again, even if he didn't really need any help with anything. He fiddled with the hem of his jumper. "Um are you going into Hogsmeade this weekend Jaimi?" He paused a moment, before he continued. "Only if you are, would you like to maybe meet up at the Three Broomsticks?" He said the last part a little to quickly. "I mean I'll be with the others but if you felt like joining us, you could...If you want to?" He sighed heavily.

"Sure, that's not a problem. As long as you promise to return the favour if I need help with Defence Against the Dark Arts." she said with a teasing sparkle in her eyes, and watched as he fiddled with the hem of his jumper. He seemed to be steeling himself to say something.
"Well I got the form signed, and I hear it's a god day out." she waited for a moment, then grinned at him. "Remus, relax. I'd love to meet you, I haven't met the other two yet. Besides, I like spending time with you, we'll be fine as long as Sirius doesn't get jealous." She laughed softly.
"What time do you want me to meet you, I'm sure you've got Pranks to plan before I get there, just do me a favour and make sure I'm not the subject." Her eyes sparkled as she smiled mischeviously across the table at him. It was nice to have an intelligent conversation with a guy and not feel awkward. Being with Remus felt natural, it was definately something she could get used to.

Remus smiled and rubbed the back of his neck. "Yes of course I'll help you out with anything." He said quietly. His face brightened as she agreed to meet him and when she mentioned Sirius getting jealous, he frowned a little. "Oh has he asked you out?" He didn't want to tread on any toes. He liked Jaimi and felt slightly put out that Sirius had asked her first. He was pleased though, that she seemed to like him, as much as he did her.
He laughed at the suggestion of pranks. "Well there aren't any planned at the moment, but that could change. I'll make sure you don't get caught up in anything though." He smiled. "About twelve? We were thinking of getting some dinner and a Butterbeer about then." He smiled again, he loved the way her eyes sparkled when she smiled.

"Thanks." she said sitting back in her chair, relaxing slightly, sitting up again when Remus frowned and asked his question. "Sweet Merlin, no. But when it comes to be he doesn't always see sense, and he can be very over protective. I'm sure it'll be fine, we'll just have to ease him into the idea that we may be seeing more of each other." she laughed, "I have however warned him that if he tries any of it I will lock him in a broom cupboard and leave him for Filch."
Having got his assurance he wouldn't let her get mixed up in any pranks she picked up her bag off the floor and stood up. "Sounds great, I'd better take this book out officially I suppose," she said pulling it out of her bag. "So, I'll see you Saturday...?" she said and smiling across at him.

Understanding dawned on his face, as she explained about Sirius. "Oh I see now." He grinned and his eyes shined at the prospect of seeing more of Jaimi. He laughed at her threat to Sirius. "Well, I will probably have a word with him, now I know the situation, and I think, like you say. It will be fine."
He nodded as she got up and started to go check out her book. "Yeah, Saturday. I look forward to it Jaimi, and thanks for the help, and the peek at your book." He smiled back at her before reopening his own book and began skimming the pages.

"I hope so." she said with a shy smile, glancing at Remus through her eyelashes, the most typically girly thing she had done throughout the entire conversation.
Jaimi grinned and turned away with a quiet, "I'll see you then." and hurried off to find the librarian. She felt like there was a warm glow inside her chest that was slowly expanding with her excitement, Remus was a very different person to some of the other guys she had met at Hogwarts, he was calm and clever, but there was something about him that she knew she wasn't getting. Some secret that he was hiding, not that she could expect him to spill his when she wouldn't spill hers.

Remus caught her look and he lowered his eyes a little, a blush forming in his cheeks. He couldn't help feel that surge of excitement and warmth you feel when you really like someone. He hoped that she felt the same. Remus was new to this and wasn't sure how to be, it had kind of took him by surprise that he felt such strong feelings for a girl. Let alone one he'd just met. There was something special...different about her.
Once she'd gone from the library, he shut his book and put it away, before going to the common room to seek out Sirius.
