The message on her phone had brought a smile to the normally perky little blonde’s face. It was nice to know that after all of these years salty still called her gumball girl. It was their special little names for each other.

She had to get there quickly.

With a POP! she had apparated to the vendors and couldn’t help but smile when she saw him. ”SALTY!” she squealed as she practically ran toward him and thrust her arms around him in a hug.

Merlin, consent. She didn’t ask. ”s-sorry I just needed that” she gave him a small sheepish smile as she stepped back – her eyes weren’t as manically bright and sparkly as they always used to be…but he made her feel all the more happy. ”where are we?” she asked as she turned to look around the crowd and then she saw them….”you think they’ll end up falling in love?” she asked as she nudged him with his elbow.

For a second she stood there watching the people before her eyes flicked to the popcorn and she began to tear up. ”Ssss Chase? Can I get a hug?” she asked her eyes all watery again.
