“I can’t believe we were so close to finding love, Potter. Don’t I love a boy who can impress me with his honesty.” Eyebrow raised, Alecto had her arms folded over her chest. “I wanted to call you so much more, but I didn’t want you to know. But since we’re here…” Voice dropping to the conspirator’s whisper, “…I thought you were as stupid as a Niffler.” Looking at him intently, the Ravenclaw didn’t have to think twice (even though his touch sent a surge of information to her mind, facts that would never even be in her mind in the first place); with a look of mock sorrow, she had to reject James. “I’m afraid our parents will never let it be. My brother would be against it, and I cannot ever disappoint him.”
“Your family be damned!” James banged a fist on the table, garnering the attention of several nearby students who looked on with curiosity and confusion. “How can you deny these-- these--” He struggled to look for the proper word, glancing around before landing back on Alecto’s eyes with a smile. “These passions. Run away with me, Alecto. Say you’ll be mine.”
