WHO: Eddie and Verity
WHAT: A bad day for Verity
WHEN: Backdated-- Tuesday morning

Eddie didn't expect the shop to be empty. Where was George? Where was Verity? Where was Audrey? Didn't they live upstairs? He had broken into the office early, before the sun came up, and sneaked upstairs to see if he could catch them unaware. But they weren't there. They Eddie had waited around, rifling through their things, for someone to come into work.

Was the shop closed because of him?

Eddie finally settled into the chair behind George's desk and started to go through the drawers when he heard the bell ring up front. He picked up his wand and moved behind the door to the office, waiting.

	Verity wasn't paying much attention to what was going on in the shop. She came through the front door, rifling through her purse, and tucked her wand away absent-mindedly. It only took a few long strides to get across the shop to the back where she pushed open George's office door and wandered inside. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Eddie wasn't sure if he should take off and come back another day. Then an idea struck him. She was Oliver Wood's wife now, right? He was sure he had read that while scoping out the street in a disguise the week before. She was George's little sidekick and she was married to a very important man.

Eddie had an old wand-- his school wand-- that he had taken from his father's house. Eddie had bought a new, more expensive wand when he had gotten out of Hogwarts. This wand wasn't as nice of a wood or as good looking, but it still worked beautifully for him.

"You'll do," he said before pushing the door shut behind her. He flicked his wand quickly to disarm her.

	Verity nearly jumped out of her skin at the sound of his voice. She spun around as the door was closing, dropping her purse and fumbling for her wand. It went flying out of her pocket, between her fingers, and off toward Eddie for him to catch. "What-! What are you doing here?" She asked, her heart thundering now with shock and fear as she realized who it was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He caught her wand and twirled it in his fingers. Eddie had a very confident swagger. "Isn't it obvious? I was looking for Georgie Porgie Puddin-pie, but he seems to be out. Did you close the shop on account of little ol' me?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Verity frowned a little. "I suppose that depends on who you ask. And if I transfigured you into a quill, would that change things?" She asked, narrowing her eyes and trying to keep from shaking. He wasn't about to feed her a love potion, was he? She'd had enough of those to last her a lifetime. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eddie took her face in his hand. She was attractive. She was exactly the type of girl he would have gone for before it all fell apart. Blonde, full lips, thick lashes. He could see why Oliver Wood picked her to strap on the ball and chain. "Doesn't matter now, does it? I've lost my freedom, might as well have infamy. And you're going to help."
