Hogwarts RPG Name: Sloane Aubrey Knott Slytherin Fifth Year | Quote:

"Why would I want to go and do that for?" A hint of a smirk tugged at his lips now, his tone also bordering on teasing. He knew he wasn't late and that she couldn't have been waiting for him for more than a couple of minutes tops.
He hardly had his coat off when his eyes flickered over towards her at her movement to get up. "Yeah, sure." The offer of a warm drink wasn't one to pass up right now, plus it might take his mind off of sitting here like this. A hand ran through his damp hair in an attempt to keep it from falling down into his face as he he waited for her to return. He could ‘Hmph’ as much as he wanted but the fact remained that she didn’t scare easily, least of all by him. The rare smile, whilst not unnoticed, didn’t warrant a reply from the younger Knott. Smiles are saved for special occasions, and not just for handing out like sweets to someone who’d just bought a 20p pick and mix. Much like his smile, his answer also didn’t warrant one, at least, not until she got back with his butterbeer. “wELL, if you want to meet me here again, you’ll be on time or you may find you’ll be here alone,” her tone as cold and cutting as ever, something he was used to or slightly out of practice with.
Sliding his butterbeer over to him, taking care not to spill any, she took her seat and took a sip of hers before looking at him. Despite her frosty tone and general sense of standoffishness, she was actually happy to see him. She’d missed her big brother. Sure, they were in the same Hogwarts house but they didn’t live together, and his absence was missed. “What are you doing this year for winter break? Are you staying at Hogwarts or…” Referring to wherever he was staying as home wasn’t something she felt comfortable doing, even if it was his home now. |
