Hestia Jones can charm the pants off of you. (hastyhestia) wrote in wished,
Often throughout their friendship, Hestia and Charlie often spent time just one upping each other. They were a relationship filled with witty remarks and casual retorts. It was how their friendship worked. Though, if Hestia took a moment to sit back and think about it, she would realize most of her friendships were like that. But mostly because it was easier for Hestia to poke fun than talk about things seriously. She usually had a problem talking seriously.
It was hard enough to maintain some sort of professionalism at work. She didn't feel like working with her friends, too.
At the exact moment Hestia was about to say something biting in response to Charlie's remark about getting kicked out, Charlie went on to ask her a question she never thought would come out of his mouth.
"A boyfriend," Hestia repeated, her eyebrows rising slightly. "Merlin, no. If I had a boyfriend, you'd know about him-"
Or, better yet- be him. But Hestia would never be able to admit that to Charlie. Ever.
