you live your life just once, so don't forget about a thing called love.

"How's it going?" she said with a smile. Peering out his window at nothing in particular, she lowered her voice so that only he could hear. "I was...wondering if you needed any last minute help around the grounds? You know, before the school year came to an end and we all go home for a few months."
Chad narrowed his eyes suspiciously. She was being NICE. He had learned to always be cautious of the NICE. Especially when they were Slytherins. Sneaky little snakes. Some of them. Especially THIS one. Super suspicious stare!

Not really.

She wanted something to do? Now? So she was sneaky and liked getting points. Suuuuuper. Chad looked around, trying to think of what she could do.

At that moment, Mico the cat scooted past in hot pursuit of a magicked stuffed mouse. Lightbuuuuuulb.

"You could give my cat a bath?" Chad had been meaning to do that himself, but kept putting it off. How convenient and well timed!

Anyway, one day Jacob would be gone, so...Ellie smiled as well.

"Thank you." Because the 'Ravenclaws are doing rather well' was totally a compliment. To her. Totally.

Her grin widened when he looked back at the pictures.

Wait...say what? "You almost didn't?" she asked, slightly concerned. That also brought up another question, "Why?"

That could be 'why' to two things, though. Why did he almost not take the job (presuming that was the case), and why he was glad that he did.
He shrugged as he looked down into his mug of tea....and then drained the rest of it. "It would have been a big move again. I had already gone from England to France. Taking the job would have required moving back here. I am just lazy," he grinned.

"Plus it would be such a difference. From a Ministry Department Head...to a Groundskeeper. Top to the bottom." Almost. "It was worth it, though."
