Walkin' after midnight
Characters: Debi, Snitch, someone unexpected
Status: complete
Debi had barely hung up her cloak when Snitch began to whine. She gave the dog a rueful look and headed for the bathroom to pee and wash her hands. "Honestly. I walked you before I left - didn't Mrs. T look in on you?"
Snitch whined again and skittered toward the door, then back to Debi. She looked almost desperate, and if she could have crossed her legs, she probably would have.
Debi heaved a huge, martyred sight, and joined Snitch at the door. "Why couldn't you have been a cat? Stop fussing, we'll go out, but only for a few minutes, it's too late to be out for long - "
This time she wore a Muggle jacket (Zach's because her own wouldn't zip, even if the arms were way too long). She was almost over her nervousness about going out alone after Bellatrix's attack, but she still tucked her pepper spray into her pocket and had her wand in her right hand.
The post-opera crowds had thinned out, and no one noticed her heading for the park. The moon was waning, so it was a darker than she'd realized as they reached the grassy area and Snitch squatted down to do her business. She shivered (it was probably the temperature, she was not afraid) and hoped the dog would finish quickly so they could go home.
She was so focused on the dog that she didn't notice a thin dark figure in black entering the park.
