Aurora glanced up at the sound of his voice. Yeah, she recognised it. Duh. Couldn't confuse it for anyone else... She dropped her frown and smiled at him - it was his birthday after all... and he had made the effort to come and see her because she had something for him...
"Hey..." she said. If it was anyone else she would have probably hugged him - it was his birthday after all... - but she didn't get the feeling that was on the cards at the moment... heh.
She stood up and emptied her pockets, looking for the box. Chocolate frog, empty chocolate frog, screwed up parchment... a button... aha! She pulled out the
small green gift box and held it out to him.
"Happy Birthday." Well it was his seventeenth so she wasn't going to
not get him a present... When he opened it he'd find a little
phial filled with a gold liquid. Mhmm... Felix. It wasn't labeled, but she was pretty sure he would know what it was... and if he didn't he could always ask. Maybe this would make him trust her just a tiny bit... because he needed to trust her before she could give him the thing waiting in the dorm... Mhmm.
He gave her something between a nod and a tight grin. It was the best he could do so far, at least, he wasn't frowning. His lips did stretch a tiny bit more when he saw the contents of her pocket. Was his gift that small? He took a step toward her to get a better view when she took out a small green box. Kennedy's curiosity spiked as he took it.
What could she possibly give him that required such a small sized box? He took it and stared at it before opening it.
O____O
A phial...?
The gold liquid was a quick give away. He's seen a replica of this in his godfather's study, but unfortunately, he wasn't allowed to touch it. He looked at Aurora.
"Felix Felicis." Of course she knew what it was, but how did she get it? Did her mother brew it? Well, that didn't really matter. What mattered was he was in possession of liquid luck. Do you know what THAtT means?
"Thanks...really," he said. Kennedy was sort of speechless. He's been a jerk to Aurora and she gives him THIS. Guilt flooded his happiness out. He placed the phial back into te box and slid it across the table to her.
"I don't deserve this." Though it greatly pained him to say that because he REALLY wanted it.
