“It was either that or fall asleep on my desk. Im sure Moody would love me for that.” Alice teased with a laugh. “Dinner sounds great. I got some chicken out of the freezer this morning…. or we have some tofu left over from last night”

“Ugh, I can’t believe you work with him. He’s terrifying.” Mary said with a laugh as she walked into the kitchen, getting a pan down from it’s place in the cabinet. “Chicken sounds good, I’ve got peppers and onions I’ll start them in the pan.”

“You’re not boring-never say that. Saying you’re boring is the first step towards actually becoming boring.”

He smiles graciously at the bartender and holds up two fingers.

“Weren’t you seeing someone a few months ago? Was that you? How’s that going?”

“Wise advice, I’ll never make that mistake again.”

Mary waited next to him for the drink always glad for a free cocktail.

“Ah yeah, didn’t really work out. Single again.” Mary said with a shrug.

“Not the first time I’ve been flat on my back in public.” Benjy says, trying to laugh but not quite able to catch his breath just yet. He stumbles to his feet with Mary’s help just as the song ends.

“I think I owe you a drink, yeah? And, lucky for you, I’ll throw in wing man services, for free.”

“How’ve you been, anyhow? I feel like you’re usually too busy being mysterious to actually tell me anything.”

“You do look good from this angel.” Mary said with a grin on her face and a hand on her hip. Helping him to his feet she wipes some of the dirt from his shirt as he speaks.

“I’ll take one if you’re offering. Free wing man service? Oh yeah, lucky me.”

“Me? I’ve been alright, same as ever.” Mary shrugged. “Maybe I’m just boring compared to a professional quidditch player?”

“Noted.” Amycus sighed, “Listen, sometimes you need a last-minute pianist for the christmas soirée and you know a girl, but it’s like the day before the party and she ends up having a dead-beat son in need of a job.” He shrugged as he walked over to the till to start the count for the day. “But hey, if he’s the one nicking things, that’s as good a reason as any to lay him off.”

He held up a hand, where the Carrow signet ring rested on his pinky finger. “Don’t think Alecto would let me if I tried. She insists she’s allergic or some shit.”

“Songs?” he asked, surprised, “Musically inclined, are you? Huh.” 

“A last minute pianist huh? Sound like an emergency situation.” Mary shrugged not really knowing these kinds of problems. “Can’t have the Christmas soiree ruined.” Mary continued to pull chairs down as Amycus walked over the till.

“Of course she wouldn’t. Well I’m here to educate you that cheap jewelry turns your skin green.”

“Yeah, I studied music for most of my life. Mostly play piano actually...And sing sometimes.”

thewrong-alice​:

“Oh…. Sorry….” Alice laughed, emerging from her room, rubbing at her eyes. “I had a banging headache, so I ditched work early to nap”

“You’re fine.” Mary said with a laugh. “Ditch work early, I love that. We should make dinner.”

amycus-carrows​:

Amycus hummed in agreement. “Definitely having Reg look at that then,” he said, as he started taking chairs and stools down from the tables, wipint them as he went. “D’you reckon it’s the new kid, the gangly one? He seemed shifty, but I owed his mum a favour.” 

He paused. “Interesting. Why the green finger? If I can ask?”

“Yeah, but the early evening shift.” He’d gone up to their (thankfully magically sound-proofed) appartment around eleven. “Your last shift was friday, right? How’s your weekend been?” 

Mary shrugged,“Trying not to judge to quickly but I think it started happening about when he started. Of course he’s a know somebody who knows sombody hire.” Mary walks across from him taking the opposite chairs down along with Amycus.

Mary laughed brightly. “It means it’s cheap jewelry, it’s the copper and the oil on your skin or something. Not exactly a scientist but it’s not magic.” Smiling she adds. “I take it you don’t wear fake jewelry often.”

“Pretty good, wrote a few songs actually.” Mary felt herself working up the courage to ask. A bit of expectation in her eyes.

“Merlin! Al, you made me jump I didn’t know you were home.”

seekerbenjy​:

“Mmm don’t worry, mine aren’t.”

He twirls her rather poorly and spills a bit of her drink on both of them.

“You’d think I’d be tired of people oogling me by now, but I’m really not. Bet you a drink he hits on us both.” 

Benjy twirls Mary again, which causes a large amount of her cocktail to slosh onto the floor-he doesn’t notice until his foot slips in the spill and he’s suddenly on his back, looking up at her.

Spinning under his arm Mary pays no attention to the drink on her dress.

“Why would anyone be tired of oogling, you’ve only gotten hotter?” Mary said through a laugh still dancing.

Mary’s not even certain how it happens but Benjy is flat on his back in half a second. “Merlin are you alright!?” She reaches her hand out to him.

“Do you even need to ask Bestie” Alice giggled, a smile on her face. She’d been feeling a little better lately, which was probably a good thing. “What better than dancing with my bestie?”

Mary grinned at her friends reply. It was good to see Alice a bit happier for now. Taking her hand a drink in the other Mary lead them onto the dance floor. “Do you have work tomorrow?” Mary asked speaking over the music.

“Alright, but only because you’re drunk and that’ll make my shite dancing look a a bit better.” 

Benjy takes her hand and grins at her.

“But it’s just a dance MacDonald don’t get any ideas, now.”

“You know that boy at the bar has been staring at us all night.” Mary said with a Grin as she pulled Benjy onto the dance floor with the hand that wasn’t holding a cocktail.

“Don’t worry my thoughts are pure.”

[xmaryxmacdonald]

“Come on dance with me? Please?” Mary held at her hand a wide smile on her face and a bit of rosiness on her cheeks as the drinks were clearly hitting now.

To say that Alice had not been in the best frames of mind in recent days was an understatement. She’d hadn’t been feeling quite herself since the break up. Of course, she didn’t blame Frank. She never would. The break up had been mutual. But she still found herself upset, and hurt. She’d distracted herself from the thoughts by burying herself in work. That wasn’t healthy either, but it kept her from crying too much. It wasn’t really working, and she was finding herself just crying at the worst moments.

The day had been long, and Alice had come home, and hidden away in her room. She was feeling sad, and was still avoiding Frank. Hearing the front door open, she did creep out, at least wanting to be a good room mate. Although she really hadn’t been a good one lately. She smiled at Mary. “I ordered pizza for tea…..” Was she trying to make up for being a less that good friend lately? Yes.

@xmaryxmacdonald​

It had been a longer day then Mary thought it would when she left mid afternoon. It nice to know that at least Alice would be home, she worked so much it was sometimes hard to catch them home at the same time. Not to mention that she’d been mostly closed off since Frank broke up with her.

“Pizza for tea,” Mary said with a smile as she threw her bang down on the table and hung her coat on the rack. Mary could tell Alice was still upset, the look in her eyes gave it away. Breakups were never easy and Alice was sensitive. “Sounds like the best kind of tea for me.”

seekerbenjy​:

Benjy sticks his lips out in an exaggerated frown.

“That’s all I get? Same as ever? No wild tales or excursions? Come on, I’ll swap you story for story. I might have hooked up with someone from the German national teeeeeam.” 

He lets his voice sing-song, which given his complete lack of singing talent, sounds rather frog-like. 

“Please humor me, I’m so bored that if I go home I’m just going to put Mingus in different costumes again until he bites me, and my hand just healed.”

He takes a heavy sip of his drink and he can feel the alcohol behind his eyes.

It was difficult not to laugh at his exaggerated frown. He was cute from time to time.

“What else do you want Benjy? I’m waitress.” Mary said with a raised eyebrow even though that was just the tip of the iceberg, they were much more friends now then anything. “Were you at the party here last week?” Mary hadn’t seen him but it was unheard of.

“They’re throwing a big bash here this month. I saw the contract earlier, that weird beauty brand.”

He narrowed his eyes at her and then pulled a ‘whatever’ face. “That’s smart,” he said, “Honestly, why not just rob the till? I’ll ask Regulus to put a temporary cam or charm or something in the break room. Might even get your shit back. What’d they take?”

“Especially early april. Should pick up soon, though. Could you do the glasses? I’ll put the tables out.”

“Once in a while I have a good idea.” Mary said with a short laugh. Shrugging her shoulders. “Less supervision in the break room.” Mary answered, at least that what she would think after working here so long. “Tips from two weeks ago ago and a ring that will turn their finger green.”

“Yeah of course,” Mary said staring to clean and set out the glasses. She watched Amycus begin his work. “Were you here last night?”
