She noted that there was someone sitting in the waiting area and looked behind her, wondering if anyone was around to help the guy. Sigh. No one around. That meant Ashley had to step up, yeah? Putting on her best smile the blonde approached the man and held out her hand. "Hi! Welcome to Accidents and-" O_O It was him! "You." Wow. Nice way to make him feel welcome. "I mean, you're here. You work here?"
As the minutes went by, Derek got more nervous and uncomfortable. He wanted to find out what to do and actually hide in some sort of office or wherever he would be working. Safe and away from people he didn't know. That is, pretty much everybody.

Shaking his leg and still tapping his fingers on his knees, he kept staring at the floor when suddenly he heard a voice. A familiar one, actually. The person was welcoming him. He saw a hand being held out towards him and looked at it before looking up at-

'You'. Why, that was a nice way to be greeted. Smooth. He raised his eyebrows and leaned back on his seat, looking confused and surprised. The Quidditch lady! He quickly gazed from Ashley's face to her hand about three times. She looked surprised to see him. That made him wonder whether she was still expecting him to shake her hand or not...

Then she asked if he worked there. He frowned. Why would he be there if he didn't? The Ministry was no playground or central park. "I am here and yes, I work here too." That felt weird. He worked in the Ministry now. In the Ministry! That was... quite cool. Since she had come out of the offices, he concluded she also worked there. "What do you do here, exactly?" Nothing Quidditch related, he was sure.
