His crutch clattered to the floor as she kissed him. It felt better than she remembered. Mary wasnāt certain how that could be but she didnāt question it. Instead, she just kissed him a few moments longer. She had fallen so desperately in love with this person Mary wasnāt even certain who she was before him.Ā
He pulled away and she stared up at Al.Ā āYou were frightened, we all say horrible things when weāre scared. I was no treasure either. I was being selfish and thinking this was only about me. I think I understand now,ā She still held herself close to him as she spoke.Ā āI wonāt do it, I wonāt put my name on that list.āĀ Mary waited a moment for his reaction hopeful that it would be good.Ā
āIāll be a real outlaw.ā She pressed one more small kiss onto Moodyās lips.Ā āIāll help the Order full time.āĀ
He took her face between his hands, staring at her in astonishment.Ā āI- are you sure, lass?ā he asked, uncertain. Heād been about to say he understood her registration was herĀ choice, not his. He never expected...
A smile broke through Alastorās face.Ā āMary, you donāt know how happy it makes me to hear that!ā He kissed her again, still smiling. Now, at least, she wouldnāt be an easy target for the deatheaters. The ministry he could handle, but the thought of loosing her to one of those extremist freakshows was unthinkable.
āWeāll have to get you a leather jacket or something,ā he joked,Ā āOr a particularly dramatic cloak.ā
āBut you can do what you think is right,ā he said, for good measure,Ā āIām just glad youāre home.ā He hugged her to him tightly until he became aware of the doorpost digging into his back and looked down at the fallen crutch.Ā āEr. Darlinā, as much as I love holdinā on to ya...ā he said, nodding to the floor,Ā āIf you would.ā
