Annie heard the footsteps only moments before she was able to pull herself out of her thoughts. "Mhmmmmmmm?" She tilted her head up from the bowl. Ow, what a crick in the neck! Ow ow ow. The Headmistress rubbed the back of her neck with a frown, looking toward the door.

Oh! It was Javy, that pretty-faced man. "No, not a bad time at all. Come in, please." She stood up from her desk to beckon him in... and who was that there behind him? She had enough seating for both... and Gingy was at the cottage today, so no cats were taking up seats either.

"Thanks Annie," Smiling a little, Javy then looked back to see Piers.. attempting the pitiful face at him. Sigh. Yeah, he wasn't falling for that one especially after the seemingly long trek they had to make walking here. Taking a moment to physically tug Piers inside the office by his jacket sleeve, they was in now. As he let him go before sitting in one of the chairs in front.

"We- well, Piers and I.. have something to share with you." Javy didn't glance at Piers yet. Instead waiting to hear whether Piers would say or do anything or not beforehand.

Aw, darn, she invited them in. Piers was TEMPTED to run away, but he stumbled right through the door when Javy pulled him in by his sleeve. SIGH. "Hello, Annie." Piers nodded stiffly at the redhead and smoothed down his shirt and jacket sleeve that had been manhandled by Javy. Hmph. He had agreed to this, but that didn't mean he liked it.

Yes, yes, they had something to share with her. Piers folded his arms over his chest and waited for Javy to spit it out, but he didn't just yet. What was he waiting for, his boyfriend to EXPLODE? Piers looked at him and nodded his head towards the Headmistress, as if to say, 'it's all you, buddy.'

Javy and... oh, it was Piers. Immediately, the memory of him and herself sitting on a picnic blanket, high off the effects of love potion came to mind... all that stupid pensieve reminiscing had really not been the brightest way to start her day.

"Hello Javy... and Piers." Hadn't she just read something about those two, in that gossip rag still floating around this school?

Ahem. She'd best just avoid major eye contact with them for now. Annie smoothed out her skirt and resumed her seat, gesturing for the boys to do the same. Oh boy, something to share with her? "You're not having a baby, are you?" She laughed out loud, her blue eyes darting between them anxiously curiously. How odd would that be. First Fina, now... no, that was a ludicrous idea. They were people, NOT plants. They couldn't just pollinate each other!

As Javy attempted to get comfy in the chair. The chair was quite nice actually as he spread out his long legs for the extra room. His right knee accidentally brushed against Piers' making him turn his head to see him nod his head towards her. Yeah, me of course. That was perfectly okay with him.. You're not having a baby, are you? Making him turn his head to release the laughter that threatened his composure. "Ahem, erm.. No, we're not. But.." Airey probably was, but yeah, totally not them. In Javy's opinion.

"..We're together." There, that was it right there. Though perhaps a little elaborating was in order. Letting his knee reside against Piers'. It was a little warm. "We've been dating since the fifth and well.. hiding it couldn't be an option." ..Right Piersie? Turning his head to look at him again.

Yes, yes, he was sitting down by Javy. Was that knee brush intentional? Because Piers was staring at Javy now and he couldn't help but KIND OF grin when Javy lost his stone composure at the mention of having a baby. Bahah. Aha. Ahem. No, he wasn't laughing either.

Ahem.

Oh, Merlin, there it was. IT WAS OUT. They were together. The Aparecium didn't lie. Merlin's beard, why was he so nervous about this? It shouldn't matter what Annie thought, right? Unless of course, they weren't ALLOWED to date their colleagues. To be honest, if she told them that... well, that wouldn't stop him. Hah. So, instead of being stiff as a stone, Piers reached his hand over and grabbed one of Javy's.

Yep. They were together.

"Annie, what was it you said? 'Fuller is full of love and just needs someone to cuddle up to?'" Hmm. Piers shrugged in Javy's general direction. He found somebody, and it was this guy. His best mate.

Annie couldn't help it, she was gaping at them both. Her little red mouth simply fell open at the admission the boys --- HER boys, her FORMER STUDENTS --- were making to her. In the words of Marion Burbage...

"Goodness gracious!" The redhead quickly found words and clasped her hands together in front of her. "I never thought this day would come! Oh congratulations, congratulations." She beamed across the desk at them both. "Shall we summon some biscuits to celebrate? I don't know what to say, I'm surprised but happy for you, Piers... you too, Javy... I didn't think I'd be setting you two up TOGETHER by that piece in the Daily Prophet, but I'm not at all upset... I'm all for it, in fact, some of my best friends and favorite fashion designers are gay...."

It was the single women of this castle, like poor young Nessa and Cassie that should be upset by this though. Heh. Wow. Piers and Javy. Javy and Piers. "SO CUTE!" Bunz blurted again.
