"Oh, thank you. Maybe just one bite if you don't finish it. I have more than I can eat right now." She poured a cup of tea, added a touch of cream, and one half spoonful of sugar. After giving it a little stir, she took a long slow sip. "Mmmmm. I love the tea here too." Emmalyn took a small bite of scone before answering. "My weekend has been great so far. I love coming here, although I'm not sure how I feel about it being so close to Valentine's day." She shrugged her shoulders and took another bite of scone. "How about you? How is your weekend going?" She couldn't remember of Elissa had a special someone or not, so she didn't want to ask about it. Plus, she had found her sitting there alone, special someoneless, in a sort of romantic tea shop. She glanced around at a few of the couples in the room and decided that it was sort of a date destination.

Elissa smiled as Emmalyn took a seat. Dining with friends was so much more fun than dining alone! Her brown eyes scanned the plate of scones. They all looked delicious, but she eventually settled on a blueberry one. "Thank you," she said, breaking off a small piece to nibble. "Mmm! So good!"

She laughed, making a mental note to save Emmalyn a bite of cake. "I've had that problem before," she said. Part of the reason why she stuck with a simple slice of cake this time. "I was tempted to order a cream tea too, but I'd never be able to finish it by myself!" She was quiet a moment as she remembered sharing cream teas with her sister every Hogsmeade weekend during her first and second years, and she suddenly missed Gianna. It was weird being at Hogwarts without her sometimes!

She didn't have much time to think about it before Emmalyn spoke again, and her smile returned. "I'm good; glad your weekend's going good so far," she replied. "I know! It's so nice to get out of the castle for a while, and this trip couldn't have come at a better time. My sister's birthday is next week; I'll have to get a present for her while I'm here- well, not here here, but here in Hogsmeade." She looked around the room at the couple's sitting nearby.
"Yeah, I'm not crazy about Valentine's Day," she said with a slight frown. "I mean, romance is nice and all, but why do we need a holiday just to rub it in single people's faces?"
