Alex's attention jumped to the ceiling as Warren stomped on the floor above her. She stared for a moment, wondering what was going on before just choosing to ignore the fact, especially as the footsteps disappeared.
As she waited for him to come downstairs she briefly wondered what he was like anyway. He had mentioned knowing Layla, but that didn't really give her much to go off of. And she was wondering what kind of power he really had. From his words he didn't seem like a wizard, but she never knew with all the randomness that went on in the wizarding world.
A knock at the door brought a smile to her face and she decided to mess with his mind a little bit. In addition to the book she held in her hand, she grabbed a rations bar and whispered "This rations bar is now not, an ice cream cone should fill its slot." An ice cream cone filled with vanilla ice cream appeared in its place. That should throw him for a loop. She walked to the door and opened it. Licking the ice cream cone, she held out the book to him.
