Characters: Jason Samuels and Open.
Setting: Ancient Runes corridor.
Rating: TBC.
Summary: Jason is deep in thought after class, but something (or should that be someone?) distracts him.
It hadn't yet occurred to Jason, as he was packing his notes and stationery away after the end of that day's Ancient Runes class, that he was by far the last person in the classroom. Even Professor Babbling had gone, having said something he hadn't heard about fetching some worksheets she'd left copying in the staffroom... his thoughts were so deep that he had stopped his packing mid-flow and currently stood at his desk, his folder in mid air and his wand about to roll off the table and under the cupboard where spare textbooks were kept.
He just couldn't decide. Yes, his mother seemed genuinely sorry about the Howlers, but his father's death had hit the whole family hard and choosing not to go home might make her feel bad. James and Cass were spending their first married Christmas alone together, and Catherine had made noises about going to her boyfriend's family for the holidays. Larissa, by far the closest to their mother, would go to South Africa without a doubt. But if he chose to stay at Hogwarts, how would that come across? He needed his alone time to think about the future, but his family might also need him.
He was really stumped, as Muggles might say, by this one.
