WHO: Lily and Scorpius WHAT: Their honeymoon is over and they now have to move in together WHEN: Early evening, tonight WHERE: The Greengrass cottage RATING: TBD
Their joyous honeymoon was finally over, and now it was time for Lily and Scorpius to return to the real world, and each other. It had been almost blissful how easy it was for Lily to avoid him, and avoid eating, but now they were being forced to live in a small cottage. Apparently it had been in the Greengrass family for generations as a small retreat, but it was now to be their primary residence, as ordered by Lucius. The owl seemed terse and frustrated to Lily, and she assumed Scorpius had seen it as well, because by the evening, Scorpius had arrived at the cottage as well. Lily tried to act as though she didn't see him, which was surprisingly easy considered she was starting to work her way through a second bottle of wine in the past hour. Her low tolerance, combined with the fact that she hadn't eaten in days made the alcohol affect her much faster than it should have, and by early evening Lily was well onto her way to being drunk.
When Lily realized that there was nothing left in the bottle she had been holding, she walked out into the kitchen, her gait more relaxed and sultry than it usually was. She was slightly surprised to see Scorpius there, but was more surprised by the fact that he seemed to have gotten more attractive in the past few days. "Hi," she said softly, approaching him slowly, and stopping only a few centimeters away from him. She looked up through her eyelashes, eying him closely, and wondering how she hadn't noticed how fit her was before.
