Who Daphne and Miles
What Meeting
When Wednesday Night
Where The gates to Hogwarts
Status Closed/Incomplete
Rating There is a rather chaste kiss, and that's it.
O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
And I'll no longer be a
In the last few days, Miles had had more moments where he'd felt ill-prepared or nervous or anxious than he'd ever had in any moment during the rest of his life. He'd been worried about getting the job, and now that he had it and had made plans to see Daphne, that was all he could think about.
Daphne.
When she'd first showed up at his door to help him with his bleeding nose he'd tried to be charming, but it was hard with a bleeding face. He'd tried again when he'd made her dinner, but even then he was unsure as to how to approach her. She was wealthy, she had everything, and he didn't. He was scraping to get by--and even this job in Hogsmeade wasn't the highest paying. He couldn't provide for the two of them, give her any kind of a future that she might be used to or deserve. He didn't know what he was doing.
Maybe, he thought as he stood outside the gates to Hogwart's school, maybe she just wouldn't show up. She'd put an end to this nonsense and let go of something that could never be what she wanted. Miles worried and hoped against her coming to those conclusions, but as the time ticked closer to when it was they were supposed to meet, he grew more and more concerned that she had.
