3. Candy Cane
Words: 162
Character: Siofra McDowell; Slytherin graduate 2105
Feat: Julia Michaels (Zoe)
While Diagon Alley had not been a place she often frequented, since one attempted visit with Avery, Siofra had certainly come to make this corner of London one of her more frequent haunts. In particular, the Expresso Patronum - which thankfully survived one heck of a delicious tea that she liked to get.
From one particularly cute barista, too.
Striding into the little coffee shop close to Christmas, she joined the growing line - catching Julia’s eye and giving a little finger wiggle of hello as she waited for her turn to order. When she was to the front, Shay managed to behave herself from flirting too much, placing her order before slipping the barista a candy cane tip and a wink as she stepped back to wait for her drink.
Well, to wait for her drink and admire the pretty blush that bloomed across the brunette’s cheeks at the holiday poem and the request to meet her for dinner that night.
