boredom had become especially present the first week back at hogwarts, dreading the next prank of the marauders, you had decided that abusing your newly obtained converse was the best method to cope. of course they were already pretty beaten, but had only gotten worse (or better, depending on who you ask) over the week.
meanwhile, remus' pair of doc martens were still stiff, being decently new, and instead of wearing them in, it seems he had chose stealing a certain boy's conveniently–same–sized converse seemed like the better option anyway. not that it mattered all too much, it wasn't like they were the only pair of shoes you owned. however it was quite obvious he when had began, yet, for the sake of it you decided to pretend to be ignorant merely to see just how long he'd continue.
now, it had been maybe a month or two, yet you could still catch him ocasionally thieving your shoes. not in such frequency, he had suspected you caught on rather early and he had worn out his boots by now, yet now it seemed remus just did to bother you.
