“Where are you going?” Alice gave Bellatrix a pretty pout as she pulled away. She squirmed a little before she was pulled along. “You aren’t teasing me, are you?” Did Bella suffer like she had since they were interrupted the last time? Yeah, she was. It seemed like she was almost as regretful of breaking their embrace as Alice had been.
Alice smiled as Bella told her that she would get her surprise soon. Her smile grew when she heard Bella’s endearment. She had to wonder if she had heard her girlfriend right. It seemed she had. She took Bella’s hand and gave it a squeeze, resisting the temptation to tease her. Alice didn’t want Bella to not do it again…
She followed along, practically bouncing with happiness and excitement. “So, where are we going?” The bad feelings left over from her disconcerting encounter with Rodolphus were gone and things seemed to be great again.
