Lucian, a Slytherin 7th year, walked with the other students on their way to Hogsmeade thinking about how he could sneak away from his friends. Lucian had a date with Eleanor, a Hufflepuff 7th year, at Madam Puddifoot’s Tea Shop despite her knowledge that it was not his favorite place. They had been dating for a few years but Lucian was always awkward about it due to his friends’ insistent teasing, however, he had a plan to spice things up with his adorable pet. He raced to the Tea Shop after telling his friends that he had forgot that he needed to do Christmas shopping and that they could go on without him.
Eleanor blushed as she saw Lucian sneak into the shop and carefully walked over to their table. “I am missing out on looking at a new broom for next Quidditch match,” he says with a slight smirk sliding into his seat. “And yet you decide to spend time with me,” she jokes with a wiggle. A waitress comes up and places some sweet tea in front of them along with some biscuits (cookies). She smiles brightly and immediately grabs a biscuit to eat at which time she looks up and notices a devilish look in Lucian’s eyes. The conversation switches to how they may continue in life together; ranging from potential jobs to where they would like to live to whether or not they would like to get married. Lucian refused to admit that he would actually want to spend the rest of his life with a muggle-born Hufflepuff girl.
