Who: Eve and Veejay What:Date. Friends-time in Hogsmeade When: February 16 Where: Great Hall, Hogsmeade Rating: PG Status: Incomplete
Evie rapped her fingers nervously on her thigh, tapping her foot on the cold stone floor as well. The noise went unheard through the great clamor in the Great Hall, what with nearly the entire school preparing to head down to Hogsmeade. Evie reached up to adjust her cornflower blue knitted cap once again as she craned her neck for Veejay. She saw a girl she vaguely recognised in a corner and opened her mouth to call hello when a tall boy approached her with a smile and a hug. Must be her date, Evie thought, and was struck by a sudden wave of panic.
The reason they are going on a date is that they are going to Hogsmeade just the two of them, Evie worked out in her head. But Veejay and I are going...just the two of us...does that mean this is a date?! She looked down at her outfit, a royal blue jumper under a tan coat, cornflower scarf to match her cap, and a pair of dark and rather frayed blue jeans. This isn't what you're supposed to wear on a date! Evie spent the next few minutes struggling with her flight urges, trying to convince herself that she ought to just go back to the Hufflepuff Common Room and never come out again when a silhouette appeared at the edge of her peripheral vision. Turning, she looked not at him but at her feet and murmured an almost incomprehensible, "Hi."
