Default Madame Puddifoot's

Madame Puddifoot's is a quiet tea shop where you can meet up with your friends.

The tea shop is laid out in a typical English tea room fashion. Lace doilies cover each table on top of the flower patterned table cloths. In the middle of each is a small container with a tea light candle, ready to be lit for those on a romantic retreat. The windows are half covered by fancy net curtains, leaving just enough room at the top to see over and down Hogsmeade's High Street. Little flower and heart covered cushions are on each seat awaiting your arrival.

Sapphira Puddifoot keeps the shop this way because she has to. But she has no desire to look upon all the fancy decorations herself, which is why you'll most likely find her in the back room. She'll come and serve you, but make sure you know what you want to order as she doesn't have all day.

One year. Can you believe it? ONE. WHOLE. YEAR.

... He couldn't really believe it either.

Grinning to himself, Alec made his way into Puddifoot's, clutching a box in one hand and a bouquet of flowers in the other. Because... word had it that these things needed to be celebrated. And properly. In the usual... romantic way. So that's why he was here.

And it turned out he was the only one here. BLINK.

Shrugging, the boy headed over towards a seat and sat down, placing the box and the bouquet on the table. Hopefully, Ells had gotten his note about meeting him in this shop. And hopefully, Astrid didn't get the note about this meeting. Or if she did, she'd have hopefully forgotten all about the wedding stuff and had left her planner back at Beauxbatons. ... Did she even have a planner for these things?

He reached up a hand to ruffle his hair, his blue eyes occasionally flicking over towards the door to see if anyone was coming in.

Paulie walked in to Madame Puddifoot's, his blue-green eyes skimming the interior. So frilly and flowery. He hadn't been here in ages, he thought. In fact, the last time he had been here, he'd been here as a Hogwarts student. With Tori, actually.

When he was shown to a two-person table, he took a seat, his long legs bumping the legs of the table as he scooted his chair in. He spotted 'Victoria Sponge' on the menu and a grin tugged at the corners of his mouth a little. Hmmm, maybe he should order that for Tori awhile?

One year. That was a long time, yeah? 365.25 days, if you wanted to look at it that way. That meant 365.25 days of dating Alec. Her Alec. Because he was hers and had been for one year. MEEP!

The blonde held the note Alec had left for her in one hand, a gift box in the other as she hurried towards the entrance of Madame Puddifoot's. She was smiling nervously as she peeked through the doorway to see that the place was pretty empty. Well, empty except for a certain boy that she sorta kinda loved a whole lot. Like...a lot a lot. BEAM.

And they just wouldn't talk about how relieved she was that Astrid wasn't here, yeah? Yeah.

Smoothing her dress, the sixteen year old approached the table and the corners of her mouth curved up into a broad smile. "Hey you!" And setting down the gift she'd brought, Ella opened her arms wide and gave the boy an expectant look.

Hugs please?

Alec's eyes glanced down at the box on the table and he tilted his head slightly. It was sort of weird to look at the end product of something and realise just how much panicking had gone into putting it all together. Because that's how Alec had spent most of his morning. Panicking.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Alec's head snapped up only to see that the person who had entered was a guy. Dude. Person. And definitely not his girlfriend. His eyes then flew towards his watch. Yeah... she should be coming sometime soon, right? And if she didn't get his message, he could always send another note back up to the castle. Maybe the shopkeeper had an owl-

Head!turn.

GRIN GRIN GRIN.

"Hey Ells!" GIRLFRIEND WAS HERE GIRLFRIEND WAS HERE. ... And she wanted hugs, yeah? He stood up and moved over towards her before wrapping his arms around her. "Happy anniversary, you," he whispered, "Erm... and you look beautiful, by the way." Yellow for Hufflepuff?

...

Also... "Oh, I have something for you!" he said, letting go of her and grinning some more.

Ella was nervous. Why, you ask? Because Alec looked really really nice and he'd dressed up and it hadn't escaped her notice that there were flowers on the table. And all of this plus the fact that he was smiling at her and walking towards her was a lot to take in.

Then hugs happened and Ella wrapped her arms around Alec, squeezing him gently. She pulled away after a moment but only a little. Only enough so that she could look up at him and smile. And stare at his lovely face. "Happy anniversary." She whispered back, blushing slightly at what he said next. "Thanks. I..I mean you look really great too." And she smiled as she reached up and tugged on his collar gently.

...

Blink.

"Yeah?" The blonde tilted her head and observed him curiously, noting how much he was smiling. It meant he was really happy, yeah? "I have something for you too." Nodnod. "Should we sit first?"

Squeezy hugs were nice! Much better than the one armed thing.

Alec squeezed her back before grinning down at her face. Because... she was shorter. Much shorter. But he liked that because it meant that he had an excuse to pick her up whenever he wanted. Nearly. He probably couldn't do that now since they were in the middle of a store. A tea store, at that. So instead, he just reached over and tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear.

ANNIVERSARY.

Yeah, he was really happy at the sound of that word. And even more so when she blushed at his compliment. "Anytime!" he whispered, "Oh... yeah? Thanks Ells!" So spending all that time looking for the right shirt and fixing his hair hadn't gone to waste. That was awesome to know. What was even more awesome was that no one had been there to see him panicking in the middle of the fifth year boy's dorm.

...

"Yeah!" You were meant to get gifts for these things, yeah? He was pretty sure about that. But if not... the girl could just have a random gift? "You do?" GRIN. "Sure, yeah!" With a couple of swift movements, the boy moved around the blonde-haired girl and pulled open the chair.

The tucking her hair behind her ear thing? Did Alec realize how much Ella liked this? Because she did like it. A LOT. It also caused her stomach to do flip flops but that wasn't an unfamiliar feeling. It tended to do that sort of thing when Alec Summers was around. Goofy smiling up at the boy continued, the blonde unable to wipe the grin off her face. She was just really happy right now, okay?

"You're welcome." Grin. She was only telling the truth and the truth was, handsome boyfriend was handsome. Lucky girl, Ella was. She resisted the urge to reach up and ruffle Alec's hair as it looked quite nice at the moment and she didn't want to ruin his hard work. Cause yes, she knew ho much Alec cared about his hair. That's another reason she liked him so much, y'know. They had the hair thing in common.

...

BEAM! "That's nice of you, y'know." For him to get something for her. Of course that was probably standard for anniversaries or something but Ella was far from an expert. And she didn't really need gifts when she got to have him. "I do, yeah." And they could just not talk about how long it'd taken her to pick things out. Or how worried she was that he wouldn't like it. ...He would like it, wouldn't he? Meep!

And then Alec was moving with impressive speed and had pulled out her chair for her. Blink. "Thanks!" How polite. The blonde took a seat and placed her hands on the gift box she'd brought, sliding it over to his side of the table. "For you."

Tori also hadn't been to Hogsmeade in like, 150 years. And definitely not with Paulie. Despite their weird schedules keeping them apart, the redhead in platform boots was rather excited to see her boyfriend today. She might have even had butterflies in her stomach, though she was keeping them at bay by popping her strawberry bubblegum nonstop.

She spotted him the instant she walked in, considering Paulie Foster was like, a foot taller than any of the other kiddos here. "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiii cutie," she popped up behind him and whispered in his ear, giving his cheek a little kiss before she slid into the seat opposite him. "I MISSED you!"

Look, she'd even gotten new highlights. Now to see if he'd notice. *beam*

...

"I... thanks! Isn't it normal anniversary behaviour?" Getting gifts and such? He was pretty sure it was, even in the dating department. And hopefully she'd know the answer to this because, well, it was no secret that Ella Bishop was smart. His smart girlfriend. His smart girlfriend Captain. Had he mentioned how proud he was of her? GRIN.

His eyes flew over towards the gift in her hand and he looked at it quickly before looking back at her. "Yeah? Well that's nice of you too!" Just saying. And he really wouldn't have minded if she didn't get him anything. Not at all.

"Anytime!" he said, moving around towards his own seat and sitting down again. There. Now this was starting to feel a little more... date-y. If that was a word, that is. "Me? I... thanks!" He grinned some more at the girl before carefully opening the box and taking a look inside. His eyes fell on the keychains first and he just... grinned. Because it had some boyfriend/girlfriend meaning to it, yeah? And it reminded him of pinky promises which his girlfriend was an absolute pro at giving out. But there was also a watch! A pretty awesome looking watch at that! GRIN.

"This is all really awesome, Ells!" Really. And did she want to tie the watch on him? ... Oh. Wait! "And these," he said, sliding the box and flowers forward, "Are for you!" Hopefully she'd like his. Hopefully.

Paulie was a bit too lost in the track of his thought to notice the sound of her boots, and so when he felt Tori's whisper at his ear, the chills down his spine were all the more noticeable to him. He hadn't gotten them in forever! Well.. probably just not since the last time he'd seen her. Which certainly felt like forever ago.

The dampness from her kiss lingered on his cheek and he succumbed to a cheesy smile. "I missed you, too." Gosh, did she have to make this so difficult? The entry, the dress, the... everything?! He'd been so back and forth about ending it or not ending it, and then he finally concluded it was best to end it, and now Tori walks in, and in a matter of seconds - no, MILLIseconds - he was already second-guessing himself. He knew it would happen.

Paulie felt his hands getting kinda clammy, so he slipped them under his thighs. "Did ya dye your hair? It looks nice." It looked much better than just nice, but nice was all he managed to say.

He looked at her for a few moments, probably creepy-long if he hadn't been her boyfriend, then abruptly directed his eyes down at his menu with a creased forehead that gave him the semblance that he was studying the items quite hard, when really, they were all just a blur.

"Uh, what do ya want to eat?"

He'd already lost his appetite.

A pretty awesome looking watch at that! GRIN.

"This is all really awesome, Ells!" Really. And did she want to tie the watch on him? ... Oh. Wait! "And these," he said, sliding the box and flowers forward, "Are for you!" Hopefully she'd like his. Hopefully.


She was really smiley. Really happy too. How could she not be when he was around? The blonde shrugged her shoulders before replying, "Well it's entirely your fault." Per usual. "You're really smiley too, by the way." Just the way she liked him.

...

Nodnod. "I guess? I've never had a one year anniversary before so I'm not exactly an expert." But from what she knew about these occasions, gifts were customary. The blonde smiled some more, perfectly content and it had nothing to do with gifts.

Grin. "It's no big deal. I actually wanted to give you this earlier but now seemed like the perfect time." And she fiddled with the package nervously, eyes traveling from it to the boy's face. Hopefully it wasn't too cheesy or anything.

"You're welcome." Ella said very quietly, watching with great interest as Alec began to open his gift. She twirled a lock of her hair absently around her finger, a nervous habit of sorts. And then he was smiling and the blonde smiled too, letting out a breath she didn't realize she'd been holding in. This meant...he didn't hate them, right? The gifts.

"I know it's sort of silly but the key chains reminded me of us. I mean, we do make pinky promises a lot, y'know? So..I figured we could both take one and be reminded... of the other when we look at them?" Gah. That was totally sappy, wasn't it? As for the watch, Ella bit her lip and reached over to pick it up. "This was my Granddad's." She said quietly, running her fingers along the leather strap. "I know it's...old...but it still works. He was just really important to me and so are you so I'd like for you to have it." And she tugged on her arm gently, removing his watch and placing the one she'd gotten him on instead. "It suits you, I think." Blush.

And then it was her turn for gifts and Ella picked up the flowers first, picking up the flowers and smelling them before smiling at Alec. "These are really pretty. Thanks." Next came the box which was green, her favorite color. Had he done this on purpose? Grin. Ella removed the lid and peeked inside, her green eyes widening a bit. "Alec, this is just...erm it's all really nice." Her hands moved to the necklace and she lifted it out to examine it more closely. "Thank you. For everything. I really love this." Really really. Boy had done incredibly well.

The dampness from her kiss lingered on his cheek and he succumbed to a cheesy smile. "I missed you, too." Gosh, did she have to make this so difficult? The entry, the dress, the... everything?! He'd been so back and forth about ending it or not ending it, and then he finally concluded it was best to end it, and now Tori walks in, and in a matter of seconds - no, MILLIseconds - he was already second-guessing himself. He knew it would happen.

Paulie felt his hands getting kinda clammy, so he slipped them under his thighs. "Did ya dye your hair? It looks nice." It looked much better than just nice, but nice was all he managed to say.

He looked at her for a few moments, probably creepy-long if he hadn't been her boyfriend, then abruptly directed his eyes down at his menu with a creased forehead that gave him the semblance that he was studying the items quite hard, when really, they were all just a blur.

"Uh, what do ya want to eat?"

He'd already lost his appetite.
Awww, he had a smile for her. Tori simply beamed back at him, radiating sunshine and daisies and happiness and all the good feelings she had for her boyfriend, nothing more. He was kind of eying her up, wasn't he? Heh. She didn't mind.

"I DID, I got some highlights," the now strawberry-blonde more strawberry than blonde though answered, flicking a bit of her hair over one shoulder proudly. "Thanks!" She was glad he'd noticed. Like boyfriends were supposed to.

Anyway, Tori had to finally glance down at the menu when he asked what she wanted. Oooh, the cheesecake sounded good... bit heavy for an afternoon snack though... "A banana split!" Tori declared as she read the item off the menu. She tapped its spot on the list with her manicured nails and looked up at him brightly. "Yes, that sounds perfect. Mm. Maybe we could split a split."

Heh, see, punny? Punny hunny? Was Paulie doing okay? He looked kind of... sickly. Maybe he should get his own split, if he was germy.

Yeah. Smiley girlfriend was smiley. And it was entirely his fault? The boy let out a small chuckle before responding with, "I'm not sorry?" Because she was smiling! There was nothing to be sorry about, yeah? "Yeah? Funny because that's your fault, you know." GRIN.

...

Oh? Oh... right. Her and Harvey hadn't been together for a whole year. But there was no need to mention the girl's ex-boyfriend so... let's keep this light and not awkward, yeah? "Me neither," Obviously. "But this doesn't seem wrong, yeah?"

She wanted to give this gift earlier? Really? So... this was probably really special? The gift itself, that is, because this day itself was really special too.

Also, that hair thing she was doing? Sort of distracting. He tried his hardest to keep his eyes on his gift but there was something about the way she was twirling her hair around her finger that was sort of... mesmerising? And he knew that if he looked up properly, he'd end up staring at it. And staring was creepy, yeah? Even for boyfriends.

Yeah, okay.

Oh, and she was launching into an explanation. So now he had an excuse to look up at her face. "It's not silly, you know," he said, grinning at the girl before picking up both of the key chains, "And... this would be really useful for during the holidays, I guess." Because they had that distance problem during the holidays, yeah? ... Oh. Her Granddad's. Alec blinked a couple of times at her as the girl then started placing the watch on his wrist. "I... that's..." Could he kiss her? Please? "Have I ever told you how amazing you are? And thank you for this, Ells. Really!" The hand that had the watch tied on his wrist then turned around so that it was holding hers. "You're right, by the way. It looks awesome!"

And now it was his turn to be nervous. He reached up a hand to ruffle his hair, a sheepish grin spread across his face. "Anytime!" And... he wasn't going to be cheesy and say that she was far prettier than the flowers, even if it was true. ... GRIN GRIN GRIN. "It doesn't have any significant meaning..." he said, stealing a quick glance at the watch she had given him before looking back up at her again, "But I thought you might like it?" Which... she did. "Anytime! And thanks for coming!" GRIN.

... Also... "Do you want to order something to eat?"

Heh, see, punny? Punny hunny? Was Paulie doing okay? He looked kind of... sickly. Maybe he should get his own split, if he was germy.
A banana split? The irony. At least it could give him a transition into the conversation because he was thinking the quicker he said it, the better.

"A banana split? Heh. Split a split.. good one." Paulie kept his eyes trained on the menu still, even though he could feel her bright and happy eyes on him. "Speaking of splits..." Now he chanced a look at her.

"Uh, so.. ya know." Air force, start with the RAF. At least he could BLAME it on that, right? Yes? ...No... not really. Maybe somewhat. He finally took a breath and looked at her again. For a little longer, at least. Then, the words spilled out like word-vomit. "So, the air force is gonna fund all my tuition if I go to university, and I thought I might as well go, and so there's one in America that I wanted to go to, and they accepted me, and-" He stopped short for a second. "I'm gonna go." He neglected to mention that the university was UCLA.

The anxiousness coursed in him. And he wasn't even done yet. What was she going to do? Was she going to be super mad or super sad? Or both? Neither were good, but he'd somehow prefer mad if he had to choose. ..If this was the right thing, how come it hurt so much?

At least his next words slowed to a more normal rate of speed.

"And I think.." Paulie swallowed. "Even if it's really hard right now, I think it'll be easier on us when we're apart if we.. split up.
"

Laughing Alec was just as nice as smiling Alec and Ella grinned sheepishly at him. "I'm not sorry either?" And that was their thing, yeah? The not being sorry and agreeing to disagree. Ella liked that, that they had things. Theirthings.

...

For two people who didn't know what they were doing, they seemed to be handling this pretty well. Ella nodded seriously before offering Alec a broad smile. "This doesn't seem wrong at all. This seems...kind of perfect." Just saying.

And Ella didn't quite have the willpower that Alec did because all she seemed to be doing was staring. She couldn't not stare. He just had a nice face, Alec did. And nice hair. And a nice smile...just nice everything, really. It made it really hard for Ella to look away.

The sixteen year old frowned slightly at the mention of holidays but nodded her head. "Yeah, that's what I was thinking too." The distance part was awful but at least they'd be able to look at the key chains and smile. Besides, they were pretty good at making plans to visit each other. BLUSH. And then he was complimenting her and holding her hand and the smile was immediate. "Thanks, Alec! And...you're welcome. I'm really glad you like it." Her voice was quiet and she looked down at their hands and squeezed his gently. This was really nice.

"I don't like it. I love it." She corrected him, glancing up at him before continuing to study the necklace. "And I love you too, in case you were wondering." Also, she wouldn't miss this, yeah?

Food? "Yes please. Anything. I'm starved." GRIN.

She wasn't sorry? Now why did that sound familiar? "Of course not!" he said before chuckling some more. They never were sorry about these things, were they? Which was awesome because they never got offended by it either. Not that there was anything to be offended by...

...

Kind of perfect. Alec really liked the sound of those words, actually. But mainly the idea of this being 'perfect'. "Yeah? I'm really glad it does," GRIN. Except... "Erm... you didn't have any other plans today, did you?" Because he had sort of just asked her to come along without checking if it was okay with her first.

Alec reached up a hand to ruffle his hair absent-mindedly, his eyes still on the box on the table. ... Maybe he needed to stop doing that. The hair ruffling, that is. There really wasn't anything to be ner- "You okay?" he asked, tilting his head to the side, slightly. Because, when his eyes tore away from the gift to look up at her, it was only to notice that the girl was looking back at him.

Nodnod. "That distance thing over the summer wasn't... great," ... It sucked, actually. And it was weird not knowing whether he could go over to her house or not. Whereas here at Hogwarts, he knew that if he saw her in the common room, he was more than welcome to greet her. ... He was, right? ... Moving on... "Anytime!" GRIN. "Yeah, I really like it! And I'll wear it all the time!" And the quietness of her voice only made him want to kiss her even more... but... instead... he gently squeezed her hand back. And grinned some more.

She loved it! Like actually loved it! Which was different to just liking something, yeah? "I'm really glad you do! Erm... do you want me to put it on you?" Unless she didn't want to wear it, that is. That was cool too. "I love you too, Ells!" GRIN.

... Food! Right. Alec nodded and looked down at the menu, scanning the list quickly. This... was probably something he should have looked at before. Yeah. Especially since there were a lot of things on the menu and the girl wanted anything. "Well... do you want to go with something to do with ice cream or something else entirely?" ... And was that apple crumble on the list? GRIN.

Ariana was sitting at a table in the back of the room,not for any perticular reason. Or anything there were just other people around the room and she didnt wanna seem rude or as if she was eavesdropping. She sipped her pumpkin juice watching the door waiting for Oakey, they were doing lunch here today and she hoped he disnt get lost or side tracked again, though it'd be ok cause he was cute and all he had to do was flash that smile at her and he'd be ok thats for sure. She fixed thebow in her hair before sipping her juice a bit more as she waited.. where was he?

And was that apple crumble on the list? GRIN.


Ella simply grinned at Alec as he laughed some more. So far so good, yeah? And no sign of Astrid which was promising.

...

Other plans? Ella tilted her head and eyed Alec curiously, wondering why he asked. Was he worried that she'd rather be somewhere else? Grabbing his hand, the blonde laced their fingers and shook her head. "Of course not. I wanted to spend today with you." Grin. "Can I tell you a secret?" And she stood on her tippy toes so that she could whisper in his ear. "You're sort of my favorite, y'know." But he shouldn't go around telling everyone. She didn't want to make the others feel bad.

The hair ruffling brought a small smile to Ella's face and she was itching to reach out and ruffle it too. His hair was just really lovely, Alec's was. Oh, and now she'd been caught. Caught staring at him with that goofy smile on her face. Well that was embarrassing. The sixteen year old's cheeks flushed and she nodded. "Me? Oh I'm um...good. Great, even. Why do you ask?"

"It was awful." The distance thing. Why couldn't they live closer? Every time Ella had complained about it her Gran had went on about how absence makes the heart grow fonder but Ella's heart was pretty fond as it was. No need for the separation bit. Anyway...on to happier things, yeah? "You will?" Something about seeing her Granddad's watch on Alec made Ella feel really really happy. And at home. That too. The blonde smiled at their hands again as he squeezed back, stifling the urge to get up and kiss him. ...Causeshereallywantedtodothat.

Put it on? Ella nodded and played with the necklace she already had on, unclasping it and placing it carefully on the table. "Yes please." And something about hearing him say those words made Ella's stomach fill with butterflies. Yup. They were flying all over the place in there.

Food. Hm. "Let's do something else this time." Grin. "How about...something pie-ish?" And could they have tea too? Tea sounded nice.

Anyway...on to happier things, yeah? "You will?" Something about seeing her Granddad's watch on Alec made Ella feel really really happy. And at home. That too. The blonde smiled at their hands again as he squeezed back, stifling the urge to get up and kiss him. ...Causeshereallywantedtodothat.

Put it on? Ella nodded and played with the necklace she already had on, unclasping it and placing it carefully on the table. "Yes please." And something about hearing him say those words made Ella's stomach fill with butterflies. Yup. They were flying all over the place in there.

Food. Hm. "Let's do something else this time." Grin. "How about...something pie-ish?" And could they have tea too? Tea sounded nice.


There was a lot of smiling and laughing going on. Which wasn't bad, actually. Nope! It sort of helped the sixteen year old brush off whatever his Divination tea leaves had been telling him. And he wasn't even thinking about that! Nope... to him, it was just them here right now. Which was more than okay.

...

The hand grabbing and the lacing fingers thing? That was really nice. "I'm really glad!" Especially since she could have been doing anything else but she had decided to spend the day with him. ... And then it got worse. With the leaning up and the whispering and just in the general way in which she was really close to him. Like really close. "Yeah? Your favourite? That's a big title, you know," he whispered back, "And you're my favourite too!" Just saying.

Yeah, you were caught in the act, Miss Ella Bishop. And it wasn't as if Alec minded her... looking at him? Or, well, whatever it was, Alec still didn't mind. Especially because of her reaction afterwards. "Yeah? It's good that you're great!" Really. And why did he ask? "Oh, well... your cheeks are sort of... flushed." And yeah, this fact made him grin.

Awful was a good way to describe it, actually. A very good way. "Agreed!" he said, nodding at her, "But maybe... maybe this'll help?" He hoped so because squishing his puppy!toy -- the very same one she had given him for Christmas -- didn't seem to help. Not as much as he'd hoped. ... "Of course! It's a really awesome watch and it means a lot to you so..." He really couldn't find any reason not to wear it. Nope. And she was doing that smiling thing too which was actually very contagious.

At the blonde girl's nod and words, Alec got up and stepped around the table towards her. Smiling, he took a hold of the necklace and bent down slightly until his face was almost level with hers. Erm... "Your hair," BLINK. "I mean... it's nice, really! Yeah... I just... need to..." And he held up the necklace as a sort of way of explaining. ... Way to ruin the romantic mood, Summers.

Something else? Something different? PIE?! "Pie-ish sounds great!" he said, scanning the list, "What about..." Scan... scan... scan... "Rhubarb pie? Or apple pie?" Unless she wanted, say, a pudding of some sort?

She fixed thebow in her hair before sipping her juice a bit more as she waited.. where was he?
Puddifoots. That's where he and Ariana were going to meet up for their date at Hogsmeade. Why couldn't they have come in together though? He shrugged the thought off and looked over the tea shop...Oh goodie there she was! All the way in the back, her vibant outfit was giving her away.

He moved passed a couple other younger classmates who were also here and stood beside Ariana fiddling with the orange bow in her hair."Sitting in the back with Bright colors still makes you noticable" His fingers curled around the loops of the bow as he continue to play with it. " But, y-you look good today." He liked her in bright colors a lot more, bright colors made him smile, even if he smiled a lot already.

Sip sip sip. Pumpkin juice was really good and this was better then the kind at hogwarts. That kind was... weird to say the least. She was blowing bubbles in it through her straw because ariana did not drink out of cups from resturants or anything cause ... GERMS you know. Anyway bubbles bubbles bubbles, then someone was TOUCHING her HAIR. her precious precious hair. She flinched, and swatted the hand away slightly as she looked up and....... oh ....... "Oh, Oakey, sorry! Hiii!" she said leaningover and givong him a hug as he went back to playing with her bow. "i didnt see you walk in. Sorry." she said apoligizing yet again. She felt bad that she swatted his hand away but she didn't see it was him,honest. He was aloud to touch her hair and her cute little bow all he wanted. "are the bright colors too much?" sure she never wore this much color all at once but she thought ahe looked great soo.. oh well.

Yikes! "Ow" Oakey said sort of pulling his hand back just a big before going back to playing with Ariana's bright orange bow. "It's okay, I should have said something before reaching at you. Hiii to you too." Oakey imitated how she always said hello to him. Then recieved a very tight hug from her that he returned ten fold. Wrapping his arms around her too. He sat her back down on her chair and pulled one up along side her. "Hmmm?" Oakey looked Ariana's outfit over after Ariana asked him if it was too bright. Giving him more excuse to stare at the Slytherin Girl beside him. "Nope it's just the right amount of bright. You should try on more Yellow too." Yup, Yellow. Cause Yellow was awesome and stuff.

"sorry" she said once more for good measure as his hand fiddled with the bow and she could feel it slipping out of place, but she didn't mind." I should have been watching the door for you." instead of blowing bubbles into her drink, like she was. She beamed at him as he pulled a chair next to her and she sipped more of her drink. " i'll tell you after drinking whatever they had at the school this stuff is great." like really, it was like Heaven in liquid form in her cup.. seriously. Looking down at her shirt as he commented she chuckled at his yellow comment. " there's some yellow in it see?" she said pointing to the OBVIOUS small amount of yellow. " though once it gets a bit colder I have a really cute yellow outfit i'll have to show you." cause it was cute, and she rocked that yellow shirt and yeah, she was awesome.. no doubt.

"Uh, so.. ya know." Air force, start with the RAF. At least he could BLAME it on that, right? Yes? ...No... not really. Maybe somewhat. He finally took a breath and looked at her again. For a little longer, at least. Then, the words spilled out like word-vomit. "So, the air force is gonna fund all my tuition if I go to university, and I thought I might as well go, and so there's one in America that I wanted to go to, and they accepted me, and-" He stopped short for a second. "I'm gonna go." He neglected to mention that the university was UCLA.

The anxiousness coursed in him. And he wasn't even done yet. What was she going to do? Was she going to be super mad or super sad? Or both? Neither were good, but he'd somehow prefer mad if he had to choose. ..If this was the right thing, how come it hurt so much?

At least his next words slowed to a more normal rate of speed.

"And I think.." Paulie swallowed. "Even if it's really hard right now, I think it'll be easier on us when we're apart if we.. split up.
"
It was a good one, right? Then why didn't Paulie seem to be the least bit amused? The ginger princess' grin and bubbly charm seemed to be fading the longer they sat here and the more he looked at the menu instead of at her.

Something suddenly felt very, very wrong about this meeting. Tori tried to quell the sudden bubble of fear that popped up in the base of her tummy. She tried to keep the focus on him as he spewed out a really long sentence about the air force and tuition and uni and America? A school in America? Um he couldn't really want to go there, right, because he knew how she felt about America and it was like, way too far to travel every day by portkey...

Tori's hazel eyes started to narrow, not with anger for once, but with anxiety. The fearful feeling grew and grew until it seemed to be coming up her esophagus, into her mouth, choking the air out of her nostrils, out of the whole room. Split up? Split up? Them? They? Fostbury? Split? What did he mean by that? What could he possibly mean by that?

And why?

Tori had no words, at first, to counter those terrible ones that Paulie had just slapped her with. She sat there looking like she was choking or dying or just not breathing, because that's what it felt like. Like an elephant had just sat on her face and sucked all the air out of her lungs.

"Noo... Paulie, nnno..." she choked on the last word and shook her head violently, leaning forward so he could see how she felt about this. "No. We can work this out. We can make it work. We can... I can p-pay your tuition..." Her crushed face was pleading him to change his mind.

"Nooo please."
