She was cute when she focused like that. In fact, he was pretty sure he could watch her focus (and bowl) like that all afternoon and not get bored.

As the sparking lights and bells and whistles went off, Teddy clapped. "Much better! I doubt I could do better," he said with a laugh. "I think your cute little nose wrinkle really helped. Very intimidating." He felt a slight stiffening in his ankle, but tried to ignore it. He was teasing, he mentally told the curse that affected him, not lying. There was a big difference. He shuffled forward, the slightest limp in his step as he retrieved a shrunken head. It tried to bite him and he gave it a small shake. "Shall I try? Do I get another kiss if I beat you?"

After receiving her answer he stepped up to the lane and bowled the head. it bounced down the lane looking very much like it would hit the head bottle, but at the last minute spun and only took out three bottles.
Aurora knew she had surprised Teddy in a good way by kissing him right there in the public eye. She had if she was honest, surprised herself a little too. After Sebastian she hadn't thought she could feel love again but Teddy gave her hopes. Refocusing on what he was saying she asked curiously. "Is the apartment near where I live with the kids?" Silently she was pleased. If he had bought an apartment then he was staying put in the UK. "Have you find a job too? I can always hear in the ministry if there are openings if you fancy working for a certain department." If Teddy didn't say creatures then she wasn't going to be upset.

Smiling sunnily over her shoulder at Teddy she said "I thought it was my intimidating stare, but I'll take whatever makes the bottles and vials fall." A nose wrinkle didn't work when you had to take command in a job crisis though. Laughing Aurora gestured "Try and see!" as she watched Teddy limp a little on his way to throw the shrunken head down their lane. He hit down three bottles. Clapping her hands she called "Not bad, Teddy! Now it's my turn..."Picking up a new shrunken head ball Aurora walked past Teddy and gave him a peck on the cheek before she took her position in front of the lane. Aiming, she concentrated and threw the ball and watched as it rolled down towards the vials and bottles. This time she made 5 bottles and 3 vials fall.. A success...
