Oh what a night!!
Date: July 23rd 2025
Characters: Riley Finnigan, Brigid Maccarthaigh
Location: Riley's flat, Diagon Alley
Private/Public: Private
Rating/Warnings: None for now
Summary: Riley invited Brigid over to share ice cream after work.


Riley smiled as he closed the enveloppe and gave it to his owl, sending it off to seek Brigid. He wanted to know if she would join him after work at Foretescue's for ice cream and some quality time together. He had moved into the flat with Ryan and had found it hard to be around his brother so much now that they lived together. Maybe he was starting to have trust issues or something, but it didn't stop him from moving in and gettng settled in his bedroom. He had not really had time to play much since, but he would get to it.

Once the answer was in, Riley grinned and almost ran all the way over to work, incredibly happy. He had honestly not been so happy in a long time, he knew that for certain. Being with Brigid was pretty much equal to playing his cello.

Riley's owl was a welcome distraction from all of her packing. The two bedroom flat above Flourish and Blotts was brilliant for her and Rose. They were moving in the first of the month and already she had some ideas for a welcoming classic cocktail style gathering once they were settled. Of course, she'd have to check with Rose first.

Once it was closer to the end of Riley's shift, she quickly changed into a denim skirt and sleeveless top and a fun pair of cowboy boots She used the Floo to The Leaky before strolling down to the ice cream shoppe. Standing in line behind a family of three, Brigid patiently for her turn.

When she stepped up the counter, she tilted her head one way then the other. "Excuse me, I'm looking for specific flavor, but I don't see it listed?" she teased.

Riley drummed his hand on the counter. "A chocolate sunday right up." He said as he noticed that Brigid was standing right behind the family he was serving. He smiled as he turned around to make the famous chocolate sunday and put two cherries on top, much to the little girl's delight.

Once Brigid stepped towards the counter and his smile turned into a grin. "Well, mind telling me what that would be? I could suggest it to Mr Foretescue, see if he wants to develop that flavor customers want next?" he offered just as teasingly, winking at her.

She bit her lip and leaned forward on the counter. "Well, the flavor I'm looking for is very sweet and I think it should be called Riley." While she wanted nothing more than to give him a quick kiss, Brigid knew she'd be better off waiting until his shift was over. "But I suppose I could settle for a cone of mint chocolate chip."

Riley tilted his head and bit his lower lip. He needed to restrain himself, he thought. The manager wouldn't like it if some affection was displayed right over the counter. He blushed slightly and nodded. "A cone of mint chocolate chip right away." He said, chuckling. He got her cone prepared and smiled at her as he handed it to her. "I'll join you soon, I'm almost done, someone's taking over in about ten minutes." he told her, taking her free hand and kissing her fingers quickly.

Brigid found herself enjoy the knowledge that she could make him blush. Taking the cone from his hand, she smiled. "I'll just grab a table by the window," she said as he kissed her fingers.

Crossing the ice cream parlor toward the window, she took a seat at an empty table. Since she had about ten minutes before Riley could join her, she pulled out a piece of parchment from her bag and began to write down some note about her cocktail party idea while slowly licking her cone. Before she knew it, she was looking up to see Riley's replacement taking over the counter.

Jordan came to replace him and Riley couldn't have been happier that his shift was over. He sure liked his job, but he didn't love it. Not nearly as much as spending time with Brigid. He brought himself a nice sunday and sat accross from her, smiling. "I'm glad to see you." he said softly, reaching out to touch her hand.

Taking a hold of his hand, she nodded in agreement. "It's good to see you too. How was work?" she asked. With her free hand she quickly shoved her parchment into her bag.

"Speaking of work, could you see if you could have the first Friday or Saturday night off?"

Glad to be holding her hand, he smiled at her and tilted his head a little bit to the side. "Work was just as always. Bunch of kids coming in with their parents for a treat, many people our age coming over for a chat over a sunday or pregnant women taking out 'Gargantuous Chilly'.. nothing special happened today." he said, chuckling.

"May I ask why?" Riley asked curiously, though he had a faint suspicion that she might be the one asking him out this time. "I actually only work daytime during week days. It might change when I go back to school though. But yeah, I'm free." He scooped some of his ice cream and took a bite.

Brigid nodded; it really took someone with a lot of patience to deal with kids who were high off of sugar. Still, she understood it was a job and beggars not being choosers and all that.

"I ask because Rose and I will be moving into our flat one the first and I plan on throwing a housewarming," she said. She stopped to take a lick of her cone before speaking again. "And I'd like you to be my date."

Smiling, Riley stood and offered his hand to help Brigid up. Still holding her hand, he brought her over to Twilfitt and Tatting's to access the stairs that would lead them to the flat. Quickly unlocking the door, he let her in first, then stepped inside the flat, calling out his brother's name. Riley figured it couldn't hurt to make sure Ryan was away before getting comfortable with Brigid. And by getting comfortable, of course he meant showing that side of his personality that didn't avoid someone's gaze because he was too timid to do otherwise.

"So, this is.." `The kitchen was a bit small but much cleaner than it had been when Riley had moved in. "Yeah.." There was still very little on the counters except for a cheap coffeemaker and some dishsoap next to the sink. "Over there is the living room." He brought her over to the combined living room and dining area, which only had Ryan's desk in the middle with 2 desk chairs. In the living room, there was a sofa and a bookcase. It wasn't much but for now, it would do. Riley had every intentions in the world to make this place comfortable and it would be done one step at a time.

Pointing to one closed door he stated that it was Ryan's bedroom, then there was the bathroom (duh) and a 'storage room. "Ryan has put his piano in there and I'm thinking of getting it out in the living room." He said softly. In the small room, it was confined and the sound was crap. Riley also needed that piano to write decently. "And the only furnished room in the whole flat is.." He opened the bedroom door to reveal a neat room that looked strangely like the one he had back home except that the paint up the walls was a bit different. Since the room was smaller than it was at his parents, he had decided on a nice cotton colored paint. "Mine."

As she took his hand, she collected her handbag and slung it over the opposite shoulder. He led her to a set of stairs above the pricier robes shop and into a small two bedroom flat. Brigid's eyes scanned over the sparsely furnitured place, nodding along as he pointed out some of the features.

"I think that would be nice," she replied to his idea of moving the piano into the living area. Following him past the loo and storage room, she smiled as he revealed his bedroom. It look very similar to the one he had at his parents place.

"It's very you," she said, stepping inside the small room. Brigid set her bag on the ground and out of the way as she slowly looked around, taking note of some of things she recognized from his previous room. "I have to tell you, my room will never ever be this neat," she confessed. "I'm not exactly a slob, but I have a lot of stuff."

Riley chuckle, not closing the door yet. He wasn't sure exactly what Brigid would want to do for now. Maybe they'd just sit down and talk, which didn't require him to close the door. He preferred open spaces. "Maybe you just don't have the room for your needs." he said, smiling. "Maybe all your need is a bit more closet space, a few more drawers or shelves." For him, it was all about organizing. You can organize when you have what it takes to help you with it.

He liked his room clean and organized. It was no good to Riley if he had to spend time to find a particular partition. "I just like to find what I need quickly." He closed the gap between them and he took her hand, bringing her with him to the bed. Sitting down, he grinned at her. "Come on, tell me everything since we last talked." They had shared owls, but in the end, he still preferred to talk with her.

She chuckled at the idea of more closet space; she actually shared a huge walk-in closet with her mother. "Trust me when I tell you there isn't a closet big enough to hold my shoes and clothes," she said. "I probably need one closet just for shoes and one for my clothing."

Using only her trunk during the school year was truly a tragedy in her mind. Of course, she'd have less space with her new place, but she wasn't too concerned. She could always visit Mum's closet. "I'll just have to pair down."

Brigid sat down on the bed next to him. "Not much has happened. Once Rose and I got the flat situation worked out, I've pretty much been packing and cleaning and helping out around the pub." Even though she didn't always like working at the 3Bs, there were nights she liked working.

"Mum's having a Celtic rock band play in a few weeks," she said. "You should come hear them play."

After tucking a strand of her behind her ear, she tilted her head and smiled. "Besides moving into your own place, what have you been up to?"

Riley gave her a small laugh stretched his legs, laying back on the bed, propping himself on his elbows. "Well, you could always connect two bedrooms together by adding a door. You turn the bedroom into a huge walk-in closet." he said smirking in a way that indicated that he had no troubles with that kind of indulgence. If it made her happy.. himself wanted to get a new cello once he'd have saved enough.

"I'm glad you've found a flatmate." He wondered how it would go between Brigid and Rose and could only hope it would be alright. "Tell me if you need help with the whole moving thing. I'm not all that bad with.. well I might not be Mr Playboy-who-can-lift-furniture-with-my-little-finger but I am somewhat decent when it comes to shrinking charms." Riley said, waggling his eyebrows. It was how he had moved his own stuff too.

He had been hoping that she would not be asking about what he had been doing lately. "Been working almost every weekdays, other than that I got settled." he said, clearing his throat. Riley knew he should have played more cello, and maybe even some violin and felt a whole lot of guilt about not having touched them at all in over three days.

As wonderful as that idea sounded, she didn't think Rose would go for sharing a room in exchange for a gigantic closet. "Maybe I will do that once I'm living completely on my own or after I get married," she said, as she shifted on the bed, so she was lying on her side, resting her head in her propped up hand.

"I am too. As much as I'm ready to group up and be independent, I really don't like the idea of living all alone," she confessed. Brigid smiled at his offer to help with the move. Wiggling her eyebrows back, she replied, "I guess, we'll just have to turn you into Mr. Playboy-who-can-lift-furniture-with-your-little-finger."

As she listened to him talk, she wondered if he had time to enjoy the newness of a flat yet; he seemed to be working more than she thought he would. "Do you feel settled yet?"

Riley chuckled. "Of course, once you are living on your own." He hadn't actually meant now. "I doubt your flatmate would like you much if you decided to make your own walk in closet out of her room." He added with an other chuckle.

He let himself fall completely on the bed, gazing at the ceiling for a moment before turning his head to look at Brigid. Gosh, she was so beautiful. "How do you play on doing that?" He asked teasingly. Turning him into a 'playboy' would be like turning a toad into a prince.

"I don't know if I feel settled. I just.." He swallowed and looked up. "I just don't know. Maybe it'll feel better once I get real furniture in here and learn how to cook." There were just so many nights he could eat cereals or toasts.

She chuckled along with him. "I think she'd prefer to have a library or office over a larger closet," she replied, based on her impressions of the other girl.

Brigid looked at him as he asked her how she'd go about turning him into a playboy. "First off, you'd have to shop at the robe store downstairs, spend less time with music and more time on physical fitness and begin dating every bird in sight," she said before leaning forward. She kissed him gently on the lips. "But since I like you just the way you are, you don't need to change a thing."

She brushed her lips against his one more time before pulling away. "I can help you with the cooking front. My mum taught me some basic staples. A beef stew, roasted chicken, chocolate cake."

"I'd prefer not to get to the point where you'll have to tell me to back off." Riley whispered, chuckling. Her back arched and his breath caught in his throat. She had brushed against him in such a way that it made him gasped, especially if she was kissing his neck like that. Unfortunately for him, Brigid's lips brushed against that perfectly sensitive area below the ear while turned his gasp into a moan, both his arms wrapping tightly around her to keep her close. "Brigid.. I.. I kind of like that.."

Brigid wished that as well. When they got to the point where sex came into the picture, she wanted them to both be ready. In her limited experience, she was usually the one who needed the most time before she was ready.

She heard his gasp turn into a moan before feeling his arm tighten. Smirking at his confession, she ran her tongue slowly from his neck to the spot right below his ear. She then pressed little kisses along the same path.

There was something about Brigid and what she was doing that just made him lose his composure. "Brigid.." he gasped when he felt her tongue running so very slowly up his neck to end up with plenty of little kisses that send shocks through his whole body. As his knees were about to give in, he tried to keep himself up by bringing her even closer, but it turned out to be impossible. Brigid was already so close, but for some reason it seemed like she wasn't close enough at all.

"I.." He breathed in sharply and bit his lower lip. "I'd like to do the same to you." To hear breathe his name, moan and.. okay that was it, Riley was losing his mind into this thing.

Resisting the urge to nibble on his neck, she let her fingers tease the base of his skull. Even though she was the one making the moves, his reactions made Brigid feel a slow burn. When he pulled her closer, part of her wanted to just crawl under his skin.

"What do you mean?" she asked, leaning back a little to see his face. "You want to kiss my neck?"

Her fingers were sending blissful shivers up his spine and Riley looked into her eyes as she leaned back to look up at him. "I mean.. I want to.." And that usually where Ryan would help him out find the words he needed to make his next statement more socially acceptable. Except that having Ryan in the room probably wasn't something either of them wanted at that moment.

"I want.. I don't know how to explain, I just.." Come on, say it! You want her to whisper your name and ask for more. You want to take her breath away.. He swallowed and kissed her cheek, then her jawline, figuring she would tell him if she didn't want it. Gently, trailed his little kisses along towards her pulso point and sighed. Damn she smelled good. "You smell really good.." Was he really unable to filter his thoughts now?

She found his inability to find the right words endearing. Just as she was about to tell him so, he kissed her cheek and then he kissed down her neck. Her body reacted on its own; he head tilted to the side, offering more of her neck for him to taste; her back arched, bring her hips tight up to his.

The warmth of his breath on her pulse point sent shivers up her spine. She wanted him to kiss, lick, tease, bite, breath in that spot. However, the words of what she wanted were clouded by the feel of him, so she simply whispered, "More."

Riley completely forgot that the door was still opened, mostly because that sort of thing had never happened before. Well not spontaneously anyway. The last time, back at his parent's house, he'd had time to close the door because it had pretty much been decided ahead of time that they were getting somewhere private to be alone.

He ran the tip of his nose along her neck. "You smell so good." he whispered before kissing the path he had recently followed. The way she was rubbing against him nearly short-circuited his brain.

Brigid felt a giggle bubble as he nuzzled her neck with his nose. However, when he began to kiss the same path along her neck, she shivered in response. It felt wonderful. With each kiss he stroke the slow burn of desire.

Her body begged to be touch. Her head tilted forward to capture his lips as her arms wrapped around his neck before swiping down his back. Her tongue swept into his mouth, taking control of the kiss.
