Rp: A strong shoulder to cry on
Date: 14 September 1997
Characters: Janelle Dorny & Caleb Warrington
Location: Leaky Cauldron
Status: Private
Summary: Janelle lost her job and Caleb offered her a shoulder to cry on.
Completion: Complete

It was still early yet to receive word from any of the few resumes she had dropped off on Saturday, and she was sure there would be a checking of blood status for good measure, after all they didn’t want some muggleborn working for them under their nose with the way the Ministry regulations were going. Janelle needed company she needed someone to cheer her up and who better than an old friend and housemate to the job.

Janelle had arrived to the Leaky Cauldron a few minutes before their meeting time. She found them a table and placed her order for a glass of wine. She even asked for a clean glass, as she felt it necessary and didn’t care if it was deemed as impolite. She waited at the table for Caleb and her glass of wine in a clean glass.

	He shrugged uncomfortably. "I do certain things. I'm a good brother and son. I'm hell on a broom. I listen well. That's about it. Being anything more than the helpful one to witches is not on that list. And neither's approaching pretty girls on a non-platonic level." He paused to eat a bit more. "Unless drunk, of course."

	"And why isn't approaching a pretty girl on a non-platonic level not on your list?" Janelle was now interested to hear why. "Do you not want to be involved with anyone at all?" Janelle wanted to marry one day, but maybe that was just a female thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Again with the uncomfortable shrugging. "I'd also like to sleep in again one day, but that's not happening any time soon." He needed more than just a pint to be having this conversation. In fact, why was he having this conversation? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You know you should relax a little bit and let things happen," Janelle munched on her salad. "Of course I cannot push you to do anything and I definitely cannot help with the sleeping in thing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He rolled his eyes up to look at her. Yep. She meant that to sound just the way it sounded. "Janelle," he sighed, "don't tease a poor, hard-working bloke like that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	false_dorny 2008-12-16 02:06 pm UTC (link)
	"How am I teasing you Caleb?" She raised her eyebrow him, she could help the smile that was creeping on her face. "You know you really should just let things happen and live in the moment." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He shook his head at her, a wry answering smile crinkling the corners of his eyes. "I make no promises, Dorny." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well as long as you attempt to relax then my job is done," she laughed a little sipping more at wine. "Who knows if you just relax you could get yourself laid and maybe get a good night sleep, even if it isn't long but I am sure it would be a satisfying sleep." Janelle smiled smugly as she started to eat more of her salad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"And when did this conversation suddenly become centered on my sex life or lack there of," he sighed. Go to cheer a girl up and this is what you get. "I'm sure I'd sleep like a rock once this mythical event took place." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hey I am sure saying it is a possibility," Janelle laughed, "We do not have to speak any more of your sex life, or lack there of. Of course it is a shame that it is a lack thereof." Janelle laughed weakly before finishing off her salad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yeah," he said dryly, "a real shame." Who knew that when they said you'd have no life but the Ministry when you joined the Hit Wizards Training Corp that they were being serious.

He swallowed another sigh. Even if Janelle was being serious, he doubted he could take her up on that. She was a friend, not a random one night stand. So, it would be best to change the topic.

"So, how about those Falcons?"

Janelle just rolled her eyes as she placed her fork down on the plate and smiled. "It is," she mumbled softly. How someone who looked like Caleb had a lack thereof sex life was beyond her but then she wasn't going to push the subject.

"Ah yes the Falcons," Janelle smirked a little and rolled her eyes. "They are pretty good," she grinned a little. "Now dessert any idea what you want?"

	He gave her a Look. Pretty good? That's all she had to say about the most arse kicking (literally) team in the League? Caleb scanned the menu. It all looked good to him. "Whatever you want is fine. I was serious about never meeting a dessert I didn't like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well I guess the choice is up to me." Janelle scanned the dessert menu trying to decide on something she would like. The thought of something chocolate was definitely sparking her interest. "Perhaps something chocolate? Any input?" If she was not the only one eating it and when the other person was a friend like Caleb she would like to get some input. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You can't go wrong with chocolate." It really didn't matter to him, but she seemed to want some type of answer. "We need to do this again," he said out of the blue. "You know, for reasons other than job loss." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Alright I am going to go with chocolate cake, how does that sound?" Even if he said no her heart was set on it now and that was what she wanted. She wanted to just down good chocolate cake with some whipped cream.

"You know I completely agree," Janelle needed to get out more and if that was with Caleb it would be even more of a treat. "Yes, like just going out for the sake of going out."

	"Cake is good." He grinned at her. "Going out for the sake of going out. I like the sound of that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Alright cake it is," she waved Tom over to get his attention and turned back to look at Caleb. "I am glad you like the sound of it Caleb cause I think you need to get out more." Janelle was quite serious about that statement he really did need to get out more.

When Tom came over she looked up, "Chocolate cake please with two forks." She turned back to look at Caleb with a smile, one fork would just not do.
