It was spontaneous, not like him at all. To so randomly invite a girl over. Not any girl either: it was Cho. There was something about her that he was attracted to, though, as irritating as she was.

He sat on his sofa, waiting for the knock on the door. One of the fresh batteries that she sent him was twirling in his fingers.

As requested, Cho had put on something nice. Maybe a soft jumper and skirt would distract Adrian from her red rimmed eyes. Cho ran a brush through her hair until it shone and apparated near Adrian's flat. Heeled boots clicking on the sidewalk, she hurried to his door. It was freezing! Cho ran into the building. She unwound a scarf from her neck while knocking on the door.

"Adrian! Let me in, I'm cold."

	Adrian promptly opened up the door. "I don't like hearing you, so don't shout." He replied, scanning her up and down. "Hmm. I approve." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That's nice." Brushing past him, Cho unbuttoned her coat. With the extra couple of inches from her boots Cho didn't have nearly the trouble hanging her coat up this time. "Well thank you. Impressing you is my own true goal in life." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You haven't quite reached it yet, then." Watching her hang up her coat, he cracked a little smile. "But thank you for the batteries." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"You're welcome. Merlin forbid you kick someone else out of your flat for something as simple as batteries." Cho tucked her gloves into the pocket of her coat before turning around to give Adrian a small smile.

He was a strange bloke and incredibly annoying. She wasn't really sure why she had agreed to come by. The odds of them arguing at some point were incredibly high. She hoped she didn't break down and start crying. Taking a moment to really look at him, Cho realised that Adrian was attractive. She hadn't really noticed that before.

Stepping into the living room, Cho sat down on the sofa and smoothed out her skirt. "I don't watch much television. What sort of things are on it?"

	He sat next beside her on the sofa, turning the television on with the remote. "A lot of things. Everything. Cooking shows, news reports, loud rock music, and the dramatic lives of Muggles," he flipped to a channel that was playing Monty Python. "This is my favorite. Muggles can be so stupid." He snorted.

	"I think I enjoy books more than I'm going to enjoy the television," she said and watched the screen for a moment. It didn't seem to make much sense to her. Historically speaking, the actors were completely off. Cho couldn't wrap her mind around what she was seeing. "Is this supposed to be funny?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Adrian barked with laughter as Napoleon randomly popped into a scene. "What?" He furrowed his brows impatiently. He thought the episode was hilarious. "You just don't know good television. Here. You pick something," he shoved the remote at her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He laughed? Cho didn't know Adrian had the ability to laugh. He looked much better when he wasn't glaring. Cho shook her head. "No, you keep it. I'm just getting use to this." Cho gently pushed the remote back towards Adrian. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Almost...shocked, he turned back to the television, shaking his head. Tilting his head slightly, he flipped the channels before landing on a cooking show. "What about this? Cooking's entertaining. Especially without wands. Look at them!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cholicous 2009-12-10 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	Frowning a little, Cho looked over at Adrian. "Do you watch this for any other reason than to make fun of Muggles? Is that really what you consider entertainment?" Cho didn't see what was funny at all about that. And, really, if that's all Adrian planned on doing she was going to leave. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notreallydead 2009-12-10 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes. What's wrong with that?" He returned her frown with one of his own. No, he didn't hate Muggles, but he did find their ways interesting. So he laughed at it once in a while. What wasn't entertaining about them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's insulting. And rude. And a little sad." Cho did not enjoy seeing people laughed at. She was sensitive to that sort of thing. "Just because you don't understand their way of life doesn't mean you have the right to laugh at them." Cho reached for the remote. She'd already had enough of television for the evening.

	Surprisingly, Adrian didn't reprimand her for such a bold move. He simply turned to face her and quirked a brow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wrapping her fingers around the remote, Cho took the remote from Adrian and muted the telly. "Does that look work on people?" Cho reached up and poked his quirked eyebrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Adrian's head jerked away at her poke. "You tell me," he replied. "One of my cadavers taught it to me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I know it doesn't work on me. I'm assuming there are other people it might work on." Cho smiled then, teeth and all. She found Adrian incredibly amusing at times. When he wasn't frustrating her to no end. "Anyway, there's no point in trying to scare me or intimidate me. It's not going to work." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Who says I'm trying to intimidate you? It might be something else entirely different." Adrian flashed his teeth at her, smiling doggedly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh? And what might that be? Because right now you look like the big bad wolf and I'm really not in the mood to be your Red Riding Hood." Cho grinned back at him, having forgotten about the television all together. Adrian was much easier to be around when he wasn't being such an arse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What are you in a mood for, then?" As irritating as she was, he couldn't help but find her incredibly attractive, especially as she was able to stand up to him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh no. It was your idea to invite me over," she said with a smirk. "It's terribly rude to ask your guests to come up with the entertainment, Adrian. Not that I'm surprised given how incredibly rude you ususally are." (Reply to this) (Parent)
