Date: January 10th, 2027. Characters: Matthew Wood & Craig Lawson. Location: Diagon Alley. Private/Public: Public. Rating/Warnings: None. Summary: Matt closes up shop and runs into a familiar face!
It had been a relatively slow day at Quality Quidditch Supplies. He'd had a couple of people come in and browse but only two had bought anything. It had left him bored out of his mind for most of the day. And staring at Quidditch supplies all day was driving him mad. Matthew hadn't played Quidditch in what he considered a long time and he missed it. But he wasn't about to pick up a broom and make everyone think he was going for a team either. That was over and done with. Or so he kept telling himself.
As soon as it struck six o'clock Matthew packed his things and closed the shop. The wards were activated simply enough and then - he was free. Once outside Matt took a deep breath, relishing the fresh and cold winter air. He stood in from of the shop for a moment, trying to decide whether he wanted to head home or to stop by the Leaky for a drink. It wasn't a terrible idea, but he had always hated drinking alone. Instead he decided on a walk through the Alley. Eventually, he'd figure out what to do. He had no plans for the night. There was no rush.
