Who: Arthur & Declan
What: Going for a walk?
When: December 29th, early afternoon
Where: Diagon Alley
Declan had been nothing short of astonished at how quickly his impression of Arthur had changed over the past few months - right along with how quickly his feelings had run past friendship towards the prospect of something more. He found himself constantly thinking about the other boy, so much so that even his father had noticed his distraction.
He wanted to be better because of Arthur, for Arthur, and he'd never felt that way before. Frankly, it was frightening.
Asking if he could see Arthur before the New Year's Eve party had been a whim, and as he wandered over to Fortescue's to wait Declan felt himself getting uncharacteristically nervous. But better they have time alone before they were stuck in the middle of a crowd of their classmates. Stopping in front of the ice cream shop, Declan glanced around the street in search of a familiar head of curls and waited. He was dressed in muggle attire, a decision he was becoming more uncertain of, and shoved his hands in the pockets of his coat to stop himself from fidgeting.
