Summary: Just another day at Obscurus Books, until the storm hits and traps people inside.

Gareth looked around the bookshop with pride. Children were sitting enthralled by Marigold and her husband as they performed flashy magic tricks. Logan was hosting a small cooking class, teaching everyone from housewives to retired Unspeakables (though Gareth though it was highly unlikely that there were actually such a thing as retired Unspeakables) how to bake enchiladas. His Maddie was graciously signing copies of her latest best-seller Emerald Isle, and open mike poetry night would start in a half hour, followed by a rousing karaoke contest. All in all, Thursday was shaping up to be a wonderful, and profitable, night for Obscurus Books.

"That's excellent," Terry said returning the grin. He could tell that Roger was pleased he'd noticed, and made a mental reminder to keep up with the scores. It was a simple thing to do, and it would make Roger happy which was a good thing. "When's your next match?" He leaned forward a little and his tone would let Roger know that he was really interested in hearing more about Quidditch.

Terry nodded and made a small face at the reminder of being sick. "Until you've had kids you never realize just how disgusting it is to clean up after sick people," Terry said with a grimace. "But, I'm not busy now, and you're not busy, so that's nice, right?" He picked up his mocha and sipped at the hot beverage, licking away the last of the whipped cream to get to the caramel chocolatey coffee goodness that was hiding underneath. He may have moaned a little, but hopefully Roger wouldn't tease him.

"In a about a week or so," he replied, not quite remembering the exact date. Mostly because he'd been distracted at the last team meeting when they'd discussed it, but really, he thought he ought to owl and verify the date. That way, his coach wouldn't want to slaughter him anytime in the near future.

"It is," he replied, a smirk appearing when he noticed that Terry was moaning over food again. Well, over drink, but that was basically the same thing. Settling his arm along the back of the couch, he leaned in a bit to add, "you're starting to make me regret coming here, you know. I'm a little sorry that I can't pin you down to the couch for a snog here." He leaned back again, however, after completing his comment and shrugged.

"But yeah, the team's doing well this season. Might have something to do with the non-stop practices."

The Prophet listed all upcoming games, Terry remembered, so he'd take a look and see when Roger was playing next. That way he could send either a congratulatory owl, or offer a sympathy snog. Well, a congratulatory snog wouldn't be out of place either, he amended.

His eyes flew wide and he felt his face heat up instantly in a blush at Roger's next comment. He blinked once or twice, and then felt his lips quirk up in a pleased grin. "Well, that could be arranged for later," he said softly, reaching out and tracing his fingers over Roger's arm lightly. He couldn't deny that the thought of being pinned down and snogged was a very pleasing one. "When there's not so many people around."

He leaned back and was glad when Roger turned the conversation back to Quidditch. It allowed him a few moments to get his breathing back under control, and Quidditch was easy. "Well, all the hard work shows, doesn't it? When you win?"

"It does," he replied, with a grin. "I've no problem with working on plays into the night if it results in a win." None at all. Roger was in love with the game, couldn't usually handle the thought of not playing for long periods of time. The year or so between school and his first time on a team for professional Quidditch? It had nearly killed him, spending that much time without playing in a properly competitive way.

Snatching another piece of fruit, he popped it into his mouth. Mmm. Considering he'd failed to eat dinner so far, it was definitely nice to consume something of tasty deliciousness. Hopefully, he'd be able to snack on things til he was full.
