He was willing to bet that one of the Slytherin prefects were in charge down in this part of the dungeons. Thank Merlin Hady was irresistible; no one could say no to that pretty face.
No one could say no to giving Hady bear bugs too. When she told him that he could hug her any time he wanted, he took the opportunity to do so. BIIIIIIIIIIG HUUUUUUUG. This was the best. The prefect did his best to ignore the light footsteps that were steadily approaching.
But Frankie did eventually let go of his girlfriend. It was getting late, Hady had homework, the Gryffindor had a designated place in the castle he needed to be, and those footsteps were getting louder. Why was departing always so bittersweet? "I think our time here is running out," he said with a heavy sigh. But he was quick in moving his face closer toward Hady's for a quick kiss. "Goodnight, Hadleigh Lynch."
Gah, that grin! Every time the blonde grinned at her like that she couldn't help but smile up at him. If helping to persuade a prefect or two into swapping patrol areas with Frankie meant having more time to see him made him grin like that she wouldn't have any trouble at all.
The huge unexpected bear hug took her by surprise and made her laugh softly. She hadn't always been a hugger but over the years it had grown on her and she had no problem with it. Hady hugged the taller boy just as tightly in return burying her face in his chest momentarily paying no mind to the light footfalls of whomever was coming their way. She wasn't quite ready to let him go just yet...just a few seconds longer.
No, no. Why was he moving away? Couldn't whoever was coming their way go the other way? Hadleigh sighed softly letting her arms drop from their place around Frankie's waist to her sides.
"It seems so. I'll see you tomorrow at breakfast." As was routine if one wasn't to caught up with whatever they had to do. A small smile tugged at the corners of lips at the welcomed kiss however quick it may have been.
"Goodnight, Franklin Paton," she whispered leaning towards him once more to quickly brush a kiss to his cheek. With another small smile directed at the boyfriend she grabbed her bag off the ground where it had dropped earlier and made her way into the Slytherin common room.
Tomorrow couldn't come fast enough.
