WHO: Fleur and Roger
WHEN: evening September 25 (sorry for the backdate)
WHERE: pub near Wasps pitch
WHAT: Fleur does something really dumb with Roger
RATING: high

Fleur had entered the pub over an hour ago and had begun drinking heavily. She hadn't intended to get drunk, just drink enough to forget a bit, to ease the pain. His brother was more important than she was. After all his arguments about them needing to be the most important thing to each other, when she was ready to cave, when she was ready to take down the final barrier, he shut her down.

He had refused her, in the end.

Fleur downed another whisky, not appreciating the fine taste and aroma. She needed to feel appreciated, desired, and currently, she wasn't sure she cared who gave it to her.

Now Roger was entirely conflicted. Morals told him not to do anything, yet clearly she wanted to talk, needed certain reassurances. He downed his drink, not even mindful of the hypocrisy of it, given his earlier admonishment of her for doing the same. Anything to not notice the feelings brewing at the feel of her hand upon his. Even now, her touch was intoxicating in a way that he hadn't felt since that night in the garden during the Yule Ball.

"Thinks can't be that bad," he said, pouring another drink. "Sure, everyone goes through rough times. But if they really care, they work it out." But was that the same here? If she was at this point, had they slipped so far? "Everything's become routine. You just have to rediscover yourself is all. Take a moment and step outside of your comfort zone, and do something that would normally seem irrational. Go see a muggle picture,or the opera. Spend the afternoon tossing coins in a fountain. Anything that's not routine. Don't be yourself. You'll rediscover yourself, then go back, have a right royal shagging, and... and you'll feel much better."

Least, it sounded good to hear it. It had always worked for him, but then his situation was different than hers. Maybe it wouldn't apply. In which case, well, he wasn't certain what to do, given he really wasn'tqualified for this. Who did healers go to when they needed healing?
