head over broomstick (with @crmalcolm)
@crmalcolm :
“wait, alec? like gryffindor quidditch captain, chaser, my teammate alec?” he asks suddenly, head jerking up in surprise. that’s more unexpected. and mildly awkward. “when the fuck did you fall in love with him?” this has to be a very recent development, right? “not saying he isn’t beautiful, but slow down there, squirt. no dying on my watch.” malcolm sets his fork down and leans forward. “have you ever spoken more than one word to him before falling in love or is this is a ‘spotted you from afar and now i’m infatuated’ thing?”
avis threw her hands up in the air. malcolm has been like her big brother and one of her closest friends since her first year in the castle but sometimes he could be SO THICK. “malcolm. of course. who the fuck else? and how could you say that?” she huffed and crossed her arms tightly across her chest. she was not infatuated with alec. she loved him. probably. “infatuation is such a rude word, i am deeper than that!!! of course, i’ve never spoken to him but i’ve seen him at parties and, like, in the great hall and the common room before - i even saw him in the library once okay obviously we’re not complete strangers, who do you think i am?” she paused to angrily stuff a piece of toast into her mouth. “besides. did you SEE how he walked off the pitch last night? oh wow.” avis allowed herself a small moment to reminisce. alec lee, jumping off his broom. hair perfectly windswept, quaffle under his perfect arm, laughing with malcolm about something - oh wait, malcolm, shit. he was still sitting in front of her, wasn’t he? she cleared her throat quickly, “... anyways, i know nothing about him and since you’re friends with him probably i need to know things because i am definitely hooking up with him at the after-party for the gryffindor-slytherin match this weekend which we are definitely going to win by the way because i heard some girls in the bathroom today saying that slytherin’s chasers haven’t been practicing well this week. i mean i don’t know who said it exactly but it’s probably true, besides you guys are better anyways so i mean like, there’s that.” she finished and looked up at him, eyes expectant.
