when i get you alone; victoire

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

School supply shopping was the worst, luckily this would be Jayson's last year of it. He didn't know how anyone enjoyed any sort of shopping, girls seemed to love buying themselves things, but he hated blowing his money and pushing through crowded shops. Especially the weekend before Hogwarts, it was always jam packed full of people. Numerous people had crashed into him today, in Flourish and Botts he had stopped to help a lady pick up about ten dropped books. It was just a bit too chaotic for his liking, he would love to have someone do it for him. As his last year though, he was actually beginning to let it sink in that he would never have to be here again for school supplies, or atleast not until he had little rugrats of his own, if he decided on having any.

Taking a seat outside Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour, Jay set his bags down under the table. With his hands finally free, he stepped into line for an ice cream. It was a hot day out, not to mention very crowded, this was the perfect way to cool down and take a breather. So pulling out his money, he bought himself a chocolate dish, sitting at his table and mushing around the ice cream with his spoon.

Jayson was thinking of how to make his last year special, it had to top every year at the school, he had to go out with a bang. Of course, he had promised himself a few weeks ago that by the end of this year, he would tell a certain someone he had feelings for them, but that wasn't going to be his big moment of the year. No, he needed something better.

victoire had been trying for years to do one of the final steps toward independence for a long time, and that going shopping for school alone. she wanted to do it separately from her parents, and show them she could actually doing things without them. this year, they let her do just that. there were conditions, however, like they had to go to diagon alley together, and meet up before going home to make sure she got everything. they did live in shell cottage which was a little ways away from diagon, but still. they should have trust in her enough to know she knows what she's going to need for school. besides, the only thing she didn't have specifically memorized was her book list, and that's what the list was for.

but whatever, right? vic was just happy enough to be able to shop alone. she was looking forward to it simply because she knew a lot of her friends would probably be there shopping, too. she smiled as she dressed that morning, slipping into a black top and black leggings, with hot pink sandals and matching bag that slung across her front and over her shoulder. she smiled in the mirror, used a quick spell to tidy up her hair into curls, and then rushed off down to the fireplace. using floo powder, her family hurried into the fire one at a time, victoire first. she waited on the other side for the rest of them, then was given money. at the sight of the money in her hand, she was off.

she walked peacefully down the streets, making her way through the crowds. she stopped in at magical menagerie to pick up ellie, her owl, a few treats for the year. she already had normal food, though, so it was a quick stop. victoire then pursued the collection of her various quills and parchment, then settled on the idea of grabbing some ice cream before getting her books. as she neared florean fortescue's, she noticed a familiar head of hair. victoire used an extension spell on her purse, shoving her bags in, then zipped it up and crept up behind jayson.

victoire put her hands over his eyes from behind and giggled, leaning over his shoulder. "guess who!" she asked, grinning. she was sure he'd be able to tell who she was right off the bat. hey, that was what best friends were for, right? still, she thought it was pretty humorous of a greeting.

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

Jayson’s parents were very laid back, his sister was fifteen and this would be her first year shopping alone. Of course, he was suppose to make sure she was okay, but he figured she’d live, his whole family was laid back. Plus, if they forgot something then it sucked for them in school and they’d face their consequences, so their parents weren’t too worried. Which worked out fine, he might not be the most responsible guy but he was very independent and everyone had confidence that once he finished school he would do fine on his own.

As he put a spoon full of ice cream into his mouth, he suddenly couldn’t see anything, just the weird red color you get from the sun shining against someone’s hands. With a grin, he held back a chuckle as a familiar voice told him to guess who. Taking the spoon from his mouth and dropping it into what he hoped was the bowl, he made a ‘hmm’ noise, as if thinking really hard. ”Merlin?” he asked, teasing, because it would be obvious that he would know her right away. Jayson knew her better than anyone, although he knew Teddy just as well. It was different though, he noticed different things about her, because if he saw Teddy the way he saw Victoire Weasley, well…that would be an interesting talk with his parents.

Reaching up to take her hands, pulling them down and leaning his head back so he could see her upside down. ”Oh darn, I had so many questions to ask him,” he teased, giving her a grin before sitting up straight again, dropping her hands so she could come and sit with him. Jayson hadn’t always felt this way about the girl, she use to just be a friend, for years he couldn’t picture her as attractive despite everyone knowing she was beautiful. During his fifth year, seeing her desperately plead for her brother’s life, it had hurt him so much and he never wanted to see her hurt again. Eventually he realized he just might love her, which was odd for him, he’d dated but always broke it off if they tried to get serious, he didn’t know how to deal with serious feelings.

”Want some?” he offered, pushing his dish of ice cream her way, the spoon had indeed ended up in the bowl and not on the table or floor. With another though, he looked around curiously, knowing something was missing. ”Your parents are around somewhere right? I mean, you could get stolen,” he teased, knowing her parents were always around when they went school shopping.

she was quite giddy when he suggested she was merlin. vic giggled, then chuckled at jayson's next statement. "you would," she said, rolling her eyes as she briefly noticed his hands were touching her own. she felt a small perk of her heartbeat, then shook her head. it was definitely not like that...was it?

victoire moved around him and took a seat at his table, smiling at him. "of course!"

[/color] she replied excitedly, taking his spoon from the bowl and dipping it into the ice cream. she danced in her seat, her head bobbing side to side. toire took a spoonful of the ice cream and it plumeted into her mouth. "mm! soo good,"[/color] she said, grinning sheepishly. she didn't really mind people watching her eat like a lot of girls, especially around her best friend jay.

then he mentioned her family and she shrugged. "they're around, but they said i could do my shopping alone today. besides, dom and i didn't get along earlier - she turned my hair green."[/color] victoire ate a bit more ice cream so she wouldn't start pouting pathetically. "weewhinds we,"[/color] she said through ice cold lips, meaning to say 'reminds me'. she swallowed, then continued on. "have you got your books, yet? that's one of the last things i have to do..."[/color] she said, contemplating. if he'd already got his, she'd need to find a guy she knew to come with her. she heard the books that year were brutal.

[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

Jayson was always happy to see either of his best friends, although Victoire made him a bit more giddy, he couldn’t keep a stupid grin off his face around her. He was thinking about how he planned to admit his feelings to her this year, but the school year had yet to start, so he didn’t have to now. Admittedly he was putting it off at the moment, then again it was such a public place and he refused to be embarrassed around so many classmates. Shaking his head slightly to get out of his thoughts, he chuckled at her excitement over his ice cream, knowing he wasn’t getting anymore of it. Hearing her say her parents let her go shopping on her own, he grinned, finding it amusing that she finally could go off on her own.

”You should have rocked the purple hair,” he said with a playful pout, slightly disappointed that she had turned it back to normal. He knew the two of them didn’t get along at all, actually it went as far as Jayson and Dominique having problems with each other because of how much the two sisters hated one another. He didn’t have problems with many people, and he would never tell Vic but sometimes Dom amused him, regardless he still didn’t like the girl simply because of his best friend.

When she said ‘weewhinds’ he paused, giving her a confused look, wondering if that was French for something. Then she continued on and he realized her mouth had just been full of freezing ice cream. ”Actually, I’m done shopping,” he admitted, while he hated it and would love to get out of here, he realized she was wanting him to go with her. ”I will help you though, since your parents left you all on your own,” he joked, willing to suffer through the crowds in order to help her out. He would do a lot to help her, shopping more than he needed to was proof of how much she really meant to him, how he would do just about anything to spend more time with her.

”Are you eating all my ice cream?” he asked, raising an eyebrow but mostly messing with her. ”Or can you share?” he added, leaning toward her and opening his mouth, clearly wanted her to feed him a bite, mostly because it would amusing.

toire shook her head, giving him a small frown. "um, no thanks!" she pleaded, her shiny locks bouncing back and forth as she shook her head. purple hair? no, that'd be worse than green. "worst part was that i didn't know how to reverse it. my father had to do that for me,"

[/color] she said, then mumbled something about jealousy under her breath. she didn't like admitting that dominique was jealous of her, but it was obvious. dom hated victoire for one reason and that was simply because she got the attention that dom always wanted. she was jealous of the attention.

"actually, i'm done shopping." this made victoire bite the inside of her cheek. "oh."[/color] her voice was dry and monotonous, definitely not her normal. he went on to joke and say he'd help her, but she felt back. "don't want you to feel like a pack mule,"[/color] she said, then looked up into his eyes and shrugged. " 'sides, you probably wanna get out of here anyway."[/color] she knew she'd leave too if it weren't for the fact that she had to get her school supplies. she probably should have thought about it earlier, but everyone in the wizard world seemed to wait til the last minute to get everything.

"oh, um, i think i can let you have some,"[/color] she said teasingly. victoire got him some ice cream and put the spoon in his mouth, waiting for him to clasp his lips around it. she giggled and shook her head, looking at him with a raise eyebrow. she then got an evil idea. toire took the spoon back once he was done with it, then got another spoonful. "open up..."[/color] she said, smiling. she went to go feed it to him again, then turned the spoon and pressed a little against his nose. she dropped the spoon into the bowl and leaned forward, burying her face in her hands as she laughed.


[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

Jayson was still thinking over her with purple hair, he really would like to see it, as strange as it would look. Hearing that her father had to remove it, he just shook his head with a small chuckle, wondering why Dom bothered being jealous of her sister. While he loved Victoire, they were two different people and if she wasn’t always trying to ruin Toire’s life, he’d personally like the girl. She was feisty and smart, a complete bitch but she pulled some good pranks at times. Still, he didn’t tell either of them such things, seeing as it didn’t matter because he would always take his best friends side.

He noticed her change in voice, he’d known her since his second year, of course he could tell when she was unhappy. Quickly shaking his head, Jayson gave her a serious look. ”I want to go, I think I forgot my potions book anyway,” he lied, knowing she would insist he leave, she was too caring sometimes, if he wanted to stay and help her he would no matter what she said. It was rare moments when he really thought to do something for other people, the only ones who got to see the generous side of him were Teddy and Victoire, otherwise he was mainly joking with everyone and acting somewhat cocky. Truthfully, if anyone else wanted him to go shopping with them, he would make up some sort of excuse, but even with one he wanted to go for her.

”Oh thanks,” he teased, as if he was thankful that he got to have some of the ice cream that he had bought. When she went to give him more, he opened his mouth, then suddenly his nose was cold and she was burying her face in her hands with laughter, god her laugh was adorable. His mouth still hanging open, it took him a minute to recover, before smirking. ”I’m sure you want some too,” he said, sticking his finger right into the ice cream, except there was a flaw in his retaliation. Vic had her face in her hands, meaning he took his opportunity to smudge ice cream down her neck, accidentally getting some into her hair. ”Oops,” he said, grinning even though he was serious, after having her hair purple she was probably not going to like ice cream in it. ”See what you started? Making messes,” he teased, looking around for napkins, which of course he hadn’t grabbed when he went to the counter, he hadn’t made a mess eating ice cream since he was eight.

she laughed as she heard him squirming around, looking for napkins. then, she felt something cold and wet on the back of her neck. vic immediately sat up, her mouth wide. "ah!" she said surprised, then made a fake pouting faec and shook her head. "just watch your back, abercrombie,"

[/color] she said meanly, then rolled her eyes and laughed. they were even...for now.

"yea, i'm pretty good at making them, huh?"[/color] she said, a raised eyebrow. victoire stood up and went inside, grabbing napkins. she wiped the back of her neck and then ran the napkin through her hair, trying to get it out. "damn, in my hair and everything. jeez jay,"[/color] she said, then nudged him with her elbow. she leaned in front of him, toward him, and wiped off his nose. "all better!"[/color] toire exclaimed, then put the napkin on the table and stretched, extending her hands to her toes.

she watched her blond curls fall in front of her, and smiled. "so, i kinda sorta really am not looking forward to next year,"[/color] toire said softly, then stood up. she put her hand on her hip and looked down at him, wondering if he'd catch onto what she was talking about.
[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

Jay laughed at her threat, shaking his head when she rolled her eyes. “Trust me, I’m very scared,“ he teased before watching her run off to get napkins. When she returned, elbowing him playfully, he grinned. ”I said oops! Not my fault you covered your face,” he said, jokingly putting all the blame on her. ”I just wanted to eat the ice cream,” he added with a small pout, looking at the little bit of melted ice cream remaining in the dish, until she brushed off his nose. It sort of made him feel like a little good, which made him scrunch his nose a little, he didn’t want to be a kid that she was looking after.

Picking up the napkins and stuffing them into the dish to throw out, he looked up at her now standing, raising an eyebrow curiously. ”As in once I’m gone?” he asked, making sure she meant next year and not this upcoming one. ”Because I’d be sad if I couldn’t see myself every day too, I’m pretty awesome,” he added with a smirk, still looking up at her, not sure if she was planning on heading out yet since she stood up. ”Who will be your dream date to Hogsmeade or the dance?” Truthfully, Jayson didn’t know what he was doing after Hogwarts, but he knew being away from her for an entire school year would be rough. The longest he went without seeing her was maybe a month during summer vacation, because even then he would visit with Teddy and Victoire. If he finally did get up the nerve to tell her how he felt, and she didn't feel the same, he would still cling to their friendship, because he needed her in his life.

He couldn’t help but think of how cute she looked with her hand on her waist, it reminded him of when she got angry, even though right now she didn’t seem mad at all. Sometimes when she was angry with him, he had to hold back laughter, she was so amusing when she was pissed off. Other times he had to hold back from grabbing her an kissing her, he always thought girls were hottest when they were angry. Although, every time he considered kissing her, he would always chicken out. After a minute, he took her hands in his, still sitting down as she stood before him. ”I promise I will not forget about you,” he joked, even though it was a serious statement. ”If you weren’t talking about the fact that I’m leaving, then I take this all back,” he added quickly, he wasn’t one to be embarrassed even if that wasn’t what she had meant.

toire squished up her nose as he did so, chuckling. "oh suck it up," she said jokingly, then smiled down at him. at that point, he'd taken her hands and was talking. "pft, really? i don't know if i'll miss you that much,"

[/color] she said, rolling her eyes. victoire grinned at him, though, knowing he could tell she was kidding. at least, she hoped so. she really was going to miss having him and teddy around at hogwarts. the trio was going to be split up, and she didn't want that to happen.

the blonde didn't really know how she was going to cope with losing them. they were her companions. however, vic tried to push that out of her mind. what mattered was that they would be there for the rest of the year. she raised an eyebrow at him and laughed. "you know, there are a few guys in my year..."[/color] she suggested. victoire winked, then laughed at herself and squeezed his hands. "better not!"[/color] toire said through a smile. she moved herself closer to him and hugged him tightly, then pulled away and grabbed his hands, yanking him upward.

"c'mon, let's go get my books."[/color] she smiled and began walking up the way. at least, until a guy walking toward her grinned at her, looked her up and down, and then proceeded to make an obscene gesture which implied that he wanted her. ew. victoire took jay's hand and swayed it back and forth, then looked up at him as they walked. "looks like your my pretend boyfriend for the day,"[/color] she said, then laughed. yea, she was not going to be hit on all day.

[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

Of course Jayson knew Victoire would miss him, or atleast he really hoped so, they knew each other since her first year. This meant she hadn’t been at Hogwarts with him and Teddy there by her side, and while being out of Hogwarts and unable to see her would be terrible, her situation might be a little worse because she would have neither of them there. Although, he had know ideas as to what he would do once he graduated, so who knows if he’d even be able to see Teddy. There was always the chance that he choose a job which involved a lot of traveling, or moving to another country. He didn’t know what Vic would do then, or what he would do with out her, it was a bad thought. Maybe it wouldn’t be so terrible though, time away from her would surely help his feelings to fade, or so he hoped, he’d never felt this way about anyone before.

”None that compare to me,” he pointed out with a smirk at her comment about guys in her year, then again in his mind he was better than mostly anyone else, he supposed Teddy ranked up there with him. As she wrapped her arms around her, he returned the hug, nuzzling his face into her hair a little before she pulled away and tugged him up. He quickly grabbed his bags with a laugh, moving to walk beside her. ”So bossy,” he teased, before curiously watching some guy and his jesters, trying not to laugh. He wasn’t much of the jealous type, but that could also be because he knew Vic would have no interest in that creep.

As she took his hand, he squeezed hers lightly, looking down at her as they walked with a smile. ”Pretend boyfriend for the day?” he said, letting her swing their hands back and forth, ”well then that makes me the luckiest guy here today.” He’d take the opportunity to be her fake boyfriend, although he’d prefer for it to be real he knew that was a long shot. ”Well, if I was here with my real girlfriend, we’d probably snog behind one of the bookshelves, just a suggestion” he pointed out with a joking wink her way, generally he hadn’t had real girlfriends as much as snog partners in the past.

When they neared the bookshop, he held onto her hand, weaving through the crowd to cut across and enter the shop. ”It’s really hard to hold hands in crowds,” he said thoughtfully, not use to holding hands with girls. He felt holding hands with a girl made it look like he belonged to her, he’d never belonged to anyone in the past, but belonging to Vic was fine with him.

she rolled her eyes and chuckled at jayson's comments. "oh yea, keep dreaming," toire stifled, then squeezed his hand again. she thought about it, and looked up at him, an eyebrow raised. well, he was rather attractive. she didn't really notice it before - well, she did, but not to the extent of what she was then. he probably would be great at snogging. the more she thought about it, she was having the urge to snog him then and there. oh jeez.

toire slipped away from those unnecessarily sexual thoughts and turned forward, noting that his next comment was very truthful. "yea, i think we can let go now. you'll just have to look around for me if we get lost,"

[/color] she said, then smiled and let go of his hand. she made her way into the shop, sure that jay was behind her. "oh! i forgot my list...damn. this is probably why my parents have made me go shopping with them before now,"[/color] she said, then squished up her nose.

"you can lead the way, right? you know which ones i'll need anyway,"[/color] she said, nodding. it was true. toire was taking basic courses, the same that jay had. he would know what was going to be required. at least...she hoped. then her whole spiel about being independent from her parents would be ruined. victoire flipped her hair behind her shoulder and tried not to distance herself too far from jayson. it was a little hard being pushed around by the many people in the store, though.

[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

”I will,” he added with a grin, until she said something about not needing to hold hands anymore. As she let go of his hand, Jayson frowned a little, he hadn’t meant that it was a bad thing, he would have preferred to have to weave through crowds in a complicated manner if it meant holding her hand longer. It wasn’t like he never go to be close to her, she always gave hugs and such, they had a comfortable friendship after six years. It was just that he could never get enough of being close to her, plus the illusion of being her ‘boyfriend’ just for the day was a fun one.

Following behind her, he looked around the store that he had been in not to long ago, it seemed a little less crowded than before. When they stopped and she mentioned not having her list, he raised an eyebrow at her. ”Someone is clearly not old enough to be on her own,” he teased with a small laugh, finding it amusing that her first time on her own and she forgot her book list. Jayson still thought she was ready to do things on her own, forgetting things was a way of learning what not to do next time. His fifth year he attended school without any sort of transfiguration or history book, he spent the year doing any work he needed out of Teddy’s, seeing as he didn’t do much work it went fine.

When she asked if he knew what her books would be, he shook his head. ”You expect me to remember when books I used last year? I’m not the smart one in our ‘relationship’!” Honestly, Jayson wasn’t sure what books he had needed, but he figured if he went to each section and look around a bit something might pop out at him. ”Hopefully the teachers didn’t change their list,” he added, before moving down to the book shelf holding potions books, looking around the area where he had gotten his for this year. ”I never even use my books,” he muttered mostly to himself, before slipping a book off the shelf and handing it to her.

Again he took a moment to think over his previous books, knowing he probably had them at home somewhere and would have offered her his old ones if it weren’t for the fact that he had no idea where he had put them. They were likely gathering dust under his bed or in the back of his cluttered closet, he wasn’t the most organized guy in the world, and books weren’t important to him in the slightest. Jasyon frowned, he was going to get a headache from so much thinking, after summer break he hadn’t been bothered to think of school at all. Wanting a minute of distraction, he moved to Toire, wrapping an arm around her shoulder and leading her to the next shelf. ”I think some guys were eyeing you up,” he said, although his playful grin gave way to him making this up, he hadn’t paid attention to anyone else at all. ”I honestly think we’d have more luck cleaning my room to find them,” he joked, looking through another stack of books, this time for charms.

when jayson teased her about not being old enough to be on her own, she scoffed. victoire shoved him and stuck out her tongue, though was sure it didn't help her case. instead of replying, though, she simply shrugged and continued to follow him around the crowded bookstore. she was convinced that she had made the wrong decision in waiting until the last minute to get her books. besides the fact that she didn't have her book list, this was sure to be a pretty horrid shopping experience. her parents might as well have walked in and caught her right in the midst of being in a predicament. sure she'd forgotten her list, but that didn't mean she couldn't get her books, right? she'd just have to figure it out, like grown-ups did.

"oh, not the smart one in our relationship? that's apparent," she said, then laughed and nuzzled her head against his shoulder. toire watched him pick up a book, analyze it, then hand it to her. she looked over the book while he went on about how it'd be easier if they just looked for his old books in his room. she looked up and raised both eyebrows, smiling. "that's actually not a bad idea!"

[/color] she cheered, then grinned. she looked back at the book, then back up at him. "plus, i'm sure your room could do with a bit of cleaning anyway."[/color] victoire had only been to jayson's house a handful of times since he usually traveled to their end - hers and teddy's, that was. still, the times she had been over and visited, she wasn't sure where his bed and laundry basket were separated.

"we'd just need to meet up with my parents and let them know i was going over...would you seriously be up for that?"[/color] she asked, eager now. toire was sure that she'd never been to jayson's without ted there. it'd be quite fun, really. plus, it meant that they'd be able to enjoy each other's company the remainder of the day and swiftly into the night. she hoped that he'd actually meant what he said, because victoire could feel excitement pulsing in her bones. he'd given her something to hope for. dealing with dominique and everything in one day was a bit hard, but if she went to jay's, it meant a couple more hours away from being stuck in a house with dominique until school started.

[/size][/color][/blockquote][/blockquote]

[JAYSON ANTHONY ABERCROMBIE]

At first, Jayson was surprised by her enthusiasm to venture into his room. Especially when she mentioned them cleaning it. He was pretty certain his sister’s missing kitten was lost somewhere in there, it was that bad. The only time he got straightened up at all was when he tossed half his trunk to go to Hogwarts with him, the rest stayed on the floor. When he went to sleep, he pushed everything off his bed onto the rest of the piles of clothing and other strange objects that he was certain were in there. ”Well, if you’re up for the challenge,” he said with a shrug. Of course he didn’t mind having her over, he’d never had just her over his house before, it made him grin. Of course he’d had girls over his house before, but never this particular one, which of course was the one he wanted most then.

Jayson knew she was only coming over to find the books, and together they would clean his room, but he still somehow lied to himself, making himself believe he just might find an opportunity to talk to her tonight. Problem was, he never could be serious, he was terrible at having any serious moments or conversations. His two best friends seemed much better at it, he was certain they comforted each other a lot, he rather attempt to cheer them up by goofing around. He couldn’t help that he just felt awkward explaining his own thoughts and feelings, he and Teddy were guys so they were suppose to just goof off, and when a girl cried Jay felt hopeless to fix it and had no idea how to act around them. Of course if either of them wanted to have a serious moment with him, he’d listen to them, but he would have no idea what to say, he was far from smooth with words in such situations.

When she said they’d have to go find her parents, he nodded. ”Of course, I’d hate for aurors to show up at my house claiming I’ve kidnapped you,” he teased, hoping her parents wouldn’t be that drastic, although they’d hate him if Victoire took off to his house without their permission. He wasn’t sure how her parents felt about him, he could be charming and plenty of people liked him, but sometimes hers were very protective. [ b]”Are you sure you can venture off to a friends house all by yourself though?”

[/b] he asked in a baby voice, ruffling her hair playfully before grabbing the book he’d given her and tossing it onto a random shelf. ”I have to worn you though, you might get lost in my room,” he admitted, not embarrassed by it, she knew what to expect, plus he wasn’t one to usually be embarrassed.

With that, he tilted his head toward the exit, signalling for them to leave and hoping she was walking out behind him. "Any idea where the parents are?" he asked, turning back to face her.
