Hogsmead Village

She looked at him and shook her head. 'Do you trust him?'

"Well yeah! He's family!"

She nodded and turned away to hide her worry. She didnt trust him- but then again, she didnt trust many people. 'one thing, though. Dont believe what he says. Insult me and your dead.' She grinned.

"Well don't worry..." He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her with a roguish smirk, "Just because you're cute and clever, I won't call out your paranoia and borderline scary attitude..."

She turned in his arms and tapped his cheek lightly. 'Im calling my attitude a compliment, so your only going to die for one of those.'

"Oh yeah? So you think I'm bad don't you?" He stared at her with a smirk.

She laughs. 'It really sounds like yo want reasurance from me right now.'

"No, I just think you LIKE bad boys... why else would you chase after them so much?" He winked at her.

'I dont chase after them. I lock them up so i never have to see them again.'

"Lock them up? Woah, at least buy me a drink first.."

She rolled her eyes and moved away from him. 'Arent we meant to be cleaning this place? You wnt get much done if you carry on trying to flirt with me.'

"Trying? I'd say it's working..." But none the less he stepped back and carried on his duties.

She shakes her head, turning away from him. 'Its not working. It wont.' She says softly. 'even if your doing it just to prove a pint to me, its not going to work.'

"It only won't work because you keep saying it won't..."

'be truthful with me, Chimmy...why do you even try?'

He turned around and looked at her, "Try what?"

'flirting with me.' she looked at him, almost sadly. 'I mean....you dont really like me. S why? It is just to prove a point that you can?'

"Ohh.." Joachim looked at her with an odd amount of reflectiveness on his face, "Guess just.. it's what I do... I don't quite know myself... just you're really awesome and everything, so why you hang around a scumbag like me just..." He threw his hands up and keeps cleaning things off, "Fuck it, it doesn't matter..."

'it does matter. But' She shrugged, a small smile on her face. 'Your lost for words, i think. So ill stop with the questions.'

"Yeah... 'ppreciate it..." He gave her a thumbs up.

She walked into the next room and looked around at all the dust, starting to clean it. 'You should. its a rare thing to stop me asking questions.'

"Yeah I figured... just yeah, I don't get it anymore than you do..."

She shakes her head. 'Anyway. Wheres your uncle got to?'

"Probably off to buy the key component to bad decisions..."

'What bad decisions? I hope hes not going to do anything stupid while im around.'
