Unwind a little --- Belle and Aurora
Aurora had made a friend, or so she had thought she made one. A few months ago she had stumbled across ( or more like it had simply appeared ) the room of requirement. Once inside she met another female, one of beauty and grace — One that simply wouldn’t leave her mind. After that night, talking and simply getting to known one another away from all the stress of the world outside that very room, Aurora felt close to someone for a change. It was odd, yes, but she enjoyed it.
To her, she would do anything and everything within her power for the girl — Be there for her until the end like a loyal friend ought to be. Though people would question it, her being a Slytherin and the other a Ravenclaw. The match didn’t seem to go together, but she overlooked it and was happy nonetheless.
As she wandered the halls with a bottle of firewhiskey in her hands, she could sense the other girl — Smell her really, as if she had just walked right where Aurora had stepped. The strong scent of flowers and vanilla mixed together became slightly intoxicating to her soul, giving her reason to search for her friend further; Almost knowing exactly where she might be.
Alas ~ There it was again — That big beautiful door that knew just when you needed it. Inside, she knew the other had to be there. Following her instincts she pushed the door open, peeking in only to allow her eyes to rest upon a beautiful figure sitting alone on a chair off to the corner. “Belle?” She spoke softly, stepping in a bit further so she could close the door behind her, giving the two of them privacy from the rest of the castle and all who occupied it.
Her lips tugged upwards into a small smile as she inched closer, her hand gently running over the girls back as soon as she was nearer. Something was off — Ari could tell. With furrowed brows she knelt down, setting the full bottle of whiskey off to the side. She looked tired, probably stressed with all the tests that they were studying for and the rest of the schoolwork that seemed to keep piling up on everyone, including herself. Aurora wanted to ask, but she knew she wasn’t having a good day. It was obvious. Instead she sat down in front of the girl, reached over for the bottle of firewhiskey and wiggled it in front of her face.
“Why don’t you unwind a little with me?”
