WHO: Lavender and Marcus
WHERE: At the Leaky
WHAT: Lavender is stressed after a long day at work and she needs a drink.
WHEN: Tonight. About 8pm
Just looking at the girl sitting at the bar, one would easily be able to tell how stressed and tense she was, even from behind. Her shoulders were pulled up and her neck, visible under the messy, gathered bun of blond hair, was tight, her pulse almost perceptible. The grip she had on her wine glass made even the bartender look nervous, he was waiting for her to shatter the fragile cup.
Lavender took a long sip of her wine and let out a loud sigh. Today had not been a god day. At all. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong. She had tried to console herself by reminding her brain that she couldn't have changed anything that had happened, but it didn't help. She was mentally running over every mess up of the day. Lost children, escaped creatures, meddling family members......she'd seen it all today. She actually had been scheduled to work until 10pm but when an innocent patient had tapped her on the shoulder to ask her a simple question and Lavender had chewed her out, she decided it was a good day to clock out early. Lavender was embarrassed. She never let herself lose control like that. Her embarrassment only added to her tension.
This was why she was currently sitting at the bar in the Leaky Cauldron drinking her wine a bit faster than she should and mentally cursing St. Mungo's patients.
