Before last year Daphne never had a reason to enter the library, whenever she needed a book she usually owled her mother to send it to her. However, since Professor Slughorn took over the Slytherin Head of House she's found him very understanding of her need to have a permanent pass to the restricted section. On top of that, she never realized this but Madam Pince kept a very clean, and organized library, and she made sure it was always quiet. Furthermore, it was a brilliant excuse to escape the Slytherin common room.
Today, Daphne was seeking out a book and an excuse to leave the common room. After explaining the book she sought to Madam Pince, the woman pointed her in the proper direction before running off to intercept a group of third years who decided to eat chocolate while doing their homework. Steps were quiet, as she slipped down one aisle, blue gaze skimming the titles of the books as she walked past. Reaching the end of the aisle without success, she figured the book must be on the other side of shelf.
Rounding the shelving slowly, gaze settled on a sight that Daphne never expected (and after everything she has been through, there wasn't much that she didn't expect anymore). She remained quiet, as she stared at Nikolas Vaisey and Lucy Elkins snogging in the library. A finely sculpted brow arched as she could feel the prickling of jealousy on the back of her neck. It started in a low rumble at the pit of her stomach, and instantly flared up and coursed through her body. Daphne knew the feeling very well, but for once she couldn't place WHY she was jealous.
She didn't realize it, but her nails were digging into the spine of a book, and she decided it was time to announce her presence. Tipping the book off the shelf, it crashed to the floor with a loud BANG. Head lowered as gaze flickered into a piercing glare. If looks could kill this one would be the death of them both.
"Huh." She stated, ice laced in her tone, as she looked at the pair.
