Breakfast For Scoundrels (Adrian)

[Deleted]

Addie Lee was racing to the Great Hall. She had woken up late... again. It was her own fault as she had a nasty habit of staying up late to work on her sketches... among other things. She had managed to sleep through the other girls waking up and getting ready, and only opened her eyes as the last of them were leaving. She quickly woke, showered, got into her school clothes. She fed Nightshadow and gave her cat a quick pet before racing out the door. She then once again recalled the worst thing about living in the dungeons- almost everything else in the castle was upstairs.

She made her way into the Great Hall huffing. She stopped, caught her breath, and sat down among some friend. She quickly fixed her plate- pancakes, bacon, and eggs, along with milk and orange juice. She had just enough time to eat without choking on her food. She looked over to make sure none of the Professors were giving her dirty looks. It didn't appear so.

"Bloody hell, why do classes have to begin so early?" she muttered before stuffing her mouth with a piece of pancake and some bacon.

Adrian had woken up early that day and hit the quiddich pitch for some flying. He had been missing the chance to just fly about in the sky on his broom. While he liked quidditch, he also loved to just enjoy the feeling of just flying without having to think about the snitch and catching it. He might be the seeker of his house team and the seeker of attention from others, but at times he just liked to relax. And today was one such day, and having been on the air for about an hour or so, Adrian realised that he would be late for his classes if he did not return to the dorm soon. After a quick shower, the redhead decided to hurry up and go to the Great Hall if he wanted to have some breakfast. He was not going to, and never even think of skipping his meals. He can be rather strict on that rule and thus, he found himself sitting at his house table and cutting down his bacon when a certain raven haired slytherin walked in hurriedly. He watched on amused as she piled up her plate and began to eat her breakfast rather fastly. If he was honest, he thought that she would end up choking, from the way she was eating.

Adrian could not help but wonder what exactly had happened for Addison to be late for breakfast. At her words however, he looked up and said "they are not early Addi, you are late.. which makes me wonder what you've been up to last night"he asked her with a smirk, his eyes glinting with a teasing look.

Addie Lee liked Adrian a lot. He had been one of her first friends at Hogwarts. He was cute, fun, nice, talented, and all the wonderful things a friend could be. She enjoyed his company a great deal, and hoped to be engaged in it as much as possible. However, neither Adrian nor anyone else made her feel too happy when he teased her this early in the morning. As she munched on her food, she gave him a mock "death stare". Once she washed her food down with her milk, she gave him a response.

"Now what's that supposed to mean?" she said. "What had I been up to last night? I was working on some sketches, playing with my cat... and I might have been enjoying a nip of firewhiskey that I sneaked back in from Hogsmeade...." Okay, he was her friend, so she had to be honest with him. Addie Lee was a lot of things, but dishonest wasn't one of them... most of the time. "But it was just a nip. I mean... it obviously didn't make me pass out. Otherwise, I would have slept a lot better." She then ate a few more bites and washed them down.

"I take it you're well rested, Mr. Star Seeker," she joked. "What's your plan for the day... aside from really early classes?"

At the death stare being directed at him, Adrian threw up his hands in mock surrender and said "ooh someone is really hot today" he said and one can see that he had on a smirk one his face. He knew that this time he was asking for it, and knew that she would retaliate at him with something more than a glare. But that was what made her a great friend to him. While you wont' see him running around declaring favorites, he definitely knew that Addi was one of his best friends, and he had made it known to all a long time ago. And thus he knew that he was in for it. But that never stopped him before, nor would it now. He often enjoyed teasing her, and she knew it well enough that it was all in good fun.

As she began to speak or rather list out what she had done the previous night, Adrian listened to her in a casual way, until she spoke the last part which promptly got his attention. Looking at her with mock betrayal in his eyes he said "you had firewhiskey and didn't share with me or even tell me? Addiii..."he dragged the last word as he poked her with his fingers as he put on his best lost puppy look and said "how could you do it??" As she mentioned about her sleep, he raised her brow a little and said "a lot better as in you would have missed classes till lunch or anything else?" Usually when people mentioned about sleep, he often thought that they were facing trouble sleeping may be nightmares?! Well no need to get ahead of himself and worry over something he is not sure of.

Adrian ate his own bite of bacon as she asked about him, to which he paused and gulping down his food, he spoke up "I had good sleep, yes. And I've already been to the pitch today and flew for some time"he said with a hint of pride in his eyes. He often felt that he was among the few who still continued on with their practice of flying, not that he knew about the others, but that does not bother him much. In his eyes he was the only one, and that deserves some applaud. As he asked about his plans, he gave a slight shrug and said "nothing much really, I have only three classes today, charms, muggle studies and transfig"and then with a thoughtful smile he continued "you are with me in two classes, but what about the rest of your schedule for today."

Addie Lee smirked at Adrian's reaction. He had definitely set himself up for a witty response.

"What are you talking about?" she said. "I'm hot everyday." She gave him a joking wink before she deposited more food into her mouth. Adrian was another guy she could casually flirt with. She appreciated the guys who understood that it was all in good fun, given she wasn't in a hurry to have another boyfriend. Adrian was just good people in general.

Addie Lee then rolled her eyes about not sharing the firewhiskey. She really should have let him have a bit in the common room, but it was tough with people wondering about. That's why she sneaked it into the girls dorms and had the bed curtains closed.

"I just had a nip," she said quietly. "There's plenty left, and I can't finish it alone, so I'll let you know when I make use of it again. Don't think I've forgotten about you when I plan my drunken escapades."

Addie Lee then chuckled about sleeping in and missing classes.

"Well... yeah... good point," she said. "Hence, the nip. Guess I'll hold out on the rest until the weekend."

Addie Lee then listened to how Adrian had already been out to the Pitch. How the heck did he do it? Did he have a coffee-making spell?

"Bloody hell, even on the days I wake up on time, I'm still snoring when you're out there," she said. "I'll never understand how someone can be such a morning person." Schedules were then discussed, which mean Adrian was probably up for some hanging out. Excellent.

"Art Club, but after that I'm free until dinner," she said. "Unless you want to come in and pose for us. Best do so with your clothes on. Last time, we had a Hufflepuff bloke pose in his underwear and a few of the ladies in one of the paintings fainted and later reported us."

And just as he expected, Adrian got a smirk from her and the death glare vanished on a fraction of second. He knew her well enough and that was how he mostly evaded her glares by saying something or the other which would make her forget. As she replied back to him, he rolled his eyes and said "cocky much?" though he wouldn't admit that her words were true. She definitely is one of the hottest girl, at least that's what he could hear from the other males. And Merlin, he hates to hear them talk about her at times. She was his friend for crying out loud. But he never minds flirting with her, as he knew that they were friends first.

At her response that she only had a nip, he nodded and said "of course you only had a nip, or you wouldn't be here now" and smirked back at her. Oh how he loved to tease this girl. At the mention of drunken escapades, he was grinning upon remembering a few times they both had too much of the firewhiskey. They were partners in crime for a very long time after all.

At her reply, he too chuckled and was glad that there wasn't anything that bothered her. Or at least he thought. When she mentioned weekend, he nodded and said "weekend it is. And we definitely need it, what with the exams coming up" he said as he gulped down his pumpkin juice. At her next words however, Adrian couldn't help but laugh. Trust her to pick the fact that he woke early and not that he went flying. He just shook his head and said "well let's agree that you sleep way more than me". At her comment about him being a morning person, he rolled his eyes and said "you're forgetting that I am a dedicated person when it comes to flying, and hence waking up. Else I would be in the bed too".

When she mentioned at club and posing, Adrian found himself being a little too interested. "Ooh art you say? Let's say that I can be persuaded" and winked at her. As she went on to mention about a Hufflepuff guy, he rolled his eyes and said "what did he think this place was? An art studio..." and shook his head chuckling at the poor guy who caused the ladies to faint. "Didn't get into much trouble did you?" he asked her with a casual smile.

Addie Lee grinned when Adrian asked if she was cocky.

"Always," she said. She was well aware of how attractive she was, and she liked to play off of it for laughs. She didn't let it completely go to her head though. Sometimes being beautiful was not what it was all cracked up to be.

Addie Lee laughed a bit about not being here if she had drank more. It wasn't the first time she would have been hungover on a school day, though every time she was, she hoped it would be the last time.

"Oh I'd be here... I'd just be utter rubbish to be around," she said. "And I'd be drinking a lot more juice and eating a lot less pancakes."

Addie Lee nodded about needing the booze that weekend. She did want to have some casual time with her old friend.

"It's a date then," she said. She then shook her head about the whole sleep thing. She couldn't help it. She loved her sleep. Sleep was amazing. "Well you do kick arse on the Pitch, so I guess I shouldn't be too harsh on you being an early bird."

Addie Lee sighed about the Hufflepuff.

"Well, it wasn't really his decision," she said. "Some of the girls and I sort of... paid him. Well, he was gorgeous." She then shrugged about getting in trouble. "Day of detention, nothing special."

Adrian just shook his head at her reply, it was very much what he expected of her. In fact, had it been him in her shoes, he would've said the same thing. He was handsome and he knew it, and at times it did not bother to play that aspect out. After all, a person should know his strenghts to play them well and not look like a fool. As she listed out her hungover self actions, Adrian chuckled and then added "oh andn ot to forget that you would be muttering over and over that it would be the lat time you would get drunk" and gave a chuckle. Not only her, even he too was similar in that aspect. While he enjoyed the drink at that moment, the next morning makes him feel the opposite. And each time he would think of not drinking again, but in the end he gives into the pleasure.

"A date it is" he said mentally noting it, so that he would not forget it. Not that he would. Besides, it was not something he would ever end up forgetting. At her reply, he nodded and said "exactly, I have to be on the pitch, i cannot afford to be out of my practice " and then with a smirk he said "else no chances of winning the cup next year". If Adrian took anything seriously it was Quidditch. The redhead would live on his broom if one permits it. He just loves to be up in the air.

At her reply of paying the badger, his eyes widened and said "my my... you paid a guy to strip down and model for you witches'... damn". Not that he would be bothered by it nor would he end up complaining about it. He was far too sneaky when it came down to information like this. "I think you can manage a single detention, right? Hope it isn't on the weekend though" he said. He hated it when he had to serve a detention on Saturday or Sunday, not that you would ever see him in a detention. He was far too sneaky for his own good and would often escape being caught.

Yeah, Adrian got Addie Lee there. She had promised herself a number of times she wouldn't drink again. She had broken that promise a good few times, and part of her wasn't proud of it. That part of her wasn't around when the opportunity came again.

"So, I'll make it my New Year's resolution next year... like I did this year... right after I woke up from that mad New Year's Eve party..." she said.

Addie Lee smiled about how hard Adrian practiced and him looking to win the cup next year. That was be a nice thing to happen in their Final Year. Part of that was just having one of her best friends enjoying that moment. She always wished the best for Adrian though, despite how much she joked with him.

"You'll kick major arse out there next year, and I'll be front row, cheering like a crazed fan," she said. "I'll even bring your favorite beverage to the celebration party."

Addie Lee laughed about paying the Puff. She loved the look on the boy's face when they gave him the money. She wished Adrian had been there to see it.

"Turned out he was willing to model for free," she said. "But I didn't have the heart not to pay him for all the magnificent sketches before we were caught." She then shook her head about the detention being on the weekend. "Nah, I try to avoid getting into trouble before the weekend. I think my Professors have picked up on that."
