Oh, this was just too perfect. Dom grinned to herself, biting her lip to keep herself from giggling when Joe started to ask where she was. It was great! She fully appreciated the fact that he wasn't pulling out his wand either, that he was playing along with her in the dark. She moved a few steps away from him before whispering. "If I told you that, it wouldn't be any fun." Dom took light steps to the side, hopefully moving before he'd be able to reach her. She loved teasing people and she had a feeling that Joe would be a good sport, so why shouldn't she have a bunch of fun with it?
She stifled a giggle when she called her a creep, hoping his eyes still hadn't adjusted to the darkness like hers had. She stepped close, whispering into his ear, "Never been here before in my life," she muttered before sliding away quickly, touching his shoulder for half a second before moving in the opposite direction. "Can you catch me?" she challenged, sliding against the wall until she found a space in between two ... shelves, it seemed. Oh, this was just perfect. She settled down there, watching Joe move in the darkness, her eyes curious.

Hogsmeade Weekend
When Dom asked him if he could catch her, nudging his shoulder. He laughed. "Psh, yeah." he agreed to the challenge easily. "Whats my prize?" Joe asked, a flirtatious smile in his voice. Joe couldn't really feel Dom near him. He didn't know that she was hiding yet, but he was suspecting something. Reaching his hands outwards, he felt around.... nothing. Joe lunged forward, but straight into the wall, his body made a funny slapping sound as it made impact with concrete. "Ow." he rubbed his nose and backed up, "My eyes haven't adjusted yet." he whined with a laugh. It was pretty funny. "And I keep getting hurt hanging out with you.." Joe grumbled, overcompensating the 'annoyed' sounds because he wasn't really mad. Joe always liked pretending because people so easily believed him. Dom didn't seem like one of the gullible ones, but that was okay. She was suddenly being too quiet. "Are you trying to scare me? It's not gonna work." he called out, ending with a laugh. Joe shook his head as he carefully felt along the wall. MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOXOGRAPHY 2.0

He asked what his prize for finding her would be and Dom giggled softly. "How about we can figure that out once you deliver," she muttered before moving towards her hiding place. She was honestly having too much fun with this, but could that possibly be a bad thing? Joe was having as much fun with this as she was, she thought. In the very least, he was playing along with her.
She watched her from her spot between the shelves, unable to keep herself from laughing when he jumped into the wall. "What was that?" she teased, unable to resist. He admitted that his eyes hadn't adjusted yet and she giggled a little more, moving so she was standing just outside her hiding spot so if he did try to follow her voice he wouldn't be led straight to her hiding place, just close. She'd slip back in the second he was facing the right direction. She laughed again, "It's not my fault you're not good at watching where you're going," Dom quipped right back at him.
Joe seemed to be paying more attention now, so Dom slid back into her hiding nook between the two shelves. When he asked if she was trying to scare him, she had to stifle another laugh, but ended up knocking her elbow against the shelf as she did so, hitting something to the ground, where it broke. She froze, waiting to see if Joe would find her now or still struggle a bit.

Hogsmeade Weekend
"Deal." he laughed, listening carefully so that he could grab her at any moment if she attempted to scurry past him. Unfortunately, Dom had a clumsy moment. Something suddenly crashed behind him. Joe turned around on his heel, stepping toward the sound carefully. She was hiding from him! "It's not my fault you aren't watching where you're going..." Joe repeated after her in a sing song tone, stepping in front of her and reaching his hands out. His fingertips grazed a hand full of hair, and the skin of her neck. "Oh?" he practically squealed with surprise. Joe reached his hands out and pulled Dom in toward him, sliding her into his arms invitingly. "Got you!" Joe exclaimed, squeezing her into his arms so that she couldn't run away. @dominique MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOXOGRAPHY 2.0

Dom grinned to herself when he agreed to figuring out his prize once he found her. Yeah, there was no way she was going to make this easy for him. It would be much more fun to make him work to find her.
The only problem was, she hadn't meant to hit whatever-it-was that she knocked to the ground, giving away her position. Also, she was pretty sure that Joe's eyes adjusted enough that he'd be able to see her if she tried to slide out of her little hiding spot. Darn it. She made a face at him, but didn't say anything when he mocked her. Honestly, it was probably only fair that she had a clumsy moment since she'd witnessed a few from him today, but she was still annoyed. Dom wasn't clumsy. She didn't knock things over or trip. Maybe it had to do with the veela in her blood, but she was great at balance and grace and all that stuff.
She tensed slightly when he lightly touched her hair and neck. She saw it coming, but she'd been hoping that he'd pull back before making contact and prolong the game. It was wishful thinking though. The next thing she knew he was pulling her closer and Dom didn't fight it. He had found her. "I guess you did," she answered in a teasing tone. "So have you decided on your prize yet?" Dom quirked an eyebrow as she waited to see what he'd do now.

Dom didn’t pull away when he caught her and he was glad. Having her in his arms was a foreign but exciting feeling. When she asked if he had thought about what his prize may be, he chuckled, ”I have something in mind..” he teased playfully back, remembering what she had said earlier when he killed the spontaneous kissing moment by talking about it like an idiot. This time he knew what to do. Dom was a fun girl, she’d probably play along.. unless if she wanted to torture him. Which would be another game, either way he was willing to play with Dom, she was a lot of fun.
Now that his eyes had adjusted to the darkness, he could get a better feel of where they were. The basement wasn’t anything too interesting, the idea of the place was more scary than anything. Joe released the redhead girl before grabbing her hand to spin her in toward his body surprisingly coordinated in the dark. He dipped her backwards while his arm remained draped around her waist, enjoying the feeling of having her close in that moment. He waited a second before he made his next move, but it didn’t take much thought. Joe leaned in and slowly brought his lips to hers, pulling her closer in the process to share a heated kiss. He went in slow and steady so that he could read her body language, see if she tensed up or pulled away ultimately. Joe wanted to make sure that he wasn’t overstepping any boundaries since he didn’t know Dom like that, although he was definitely planning on changing that after today.

He muttered that he had something in mind and Dom chuckled. She liked his attitude and was excited to see what he was going to do. Of course, she expected him to kiss her, since they hadn't upstairs, but he'd more than earned it by being a good sport. Besides that, he was cute and fun to talk to and she was excited to get to know him better.
The last thing Dom expected was for him to let her go then. She frowned for a fraction of a second, but then he was tugging her hand and pulling her back to him with a spin. Dom squealed a little in surprise, which turned into a giggle when he dipped her. He was definitely being really adorable right now and she liked it. Dom smiled up at him expectantly, glad when he didn't wait too long before kissing her. Dom wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back, but not pushing him further into the kiss yet. She didn't want to scare him away, since they were both having such a nice time. Sure, Dom was impulsive and it seemed like he was too, but letting him lead probably wasn't a bad idea. She pulled away slightly, looking up into his eyes and smiling, "So how's that prize?" she muttered, unable to resist teasing him a little bit before she leaned closer again until her lips were almost touching his, teasing him.

Joe wasn’t sure how Dom would react to his forwardness, but he was glad that she welcomed the gesture. She melted into the kiss easily, their lips meshing in the darkness. The thrill made everything worth it.
When Dom pulled away and asked him how the prize was, her lips just inches from his, he smirked, his face twisting into a comical expression, ”I kind of need to refresh my memory...” he teased, his lips tugging upwards into a cocky smile. Joe bit his lip before pulling her in for another fervent kiss, taking in a hand full of hair as he caressed the back of her head. With how close her lips were to his she was practically asking for it!
Joe took a step back to steady himself after pulling her into him for a passionate kiss, arms dropping to her waist. In the heat of the moment, he bumped into something behind him, knocking it over with a loud crash. Joe flinched slightly, smiling against her lips, ”Opps.” he snorted, not really phased by the broken glass. The girl in front of him was far more interesting.

His idea of coming into the basement of the Shrieking Shack was definitely a good idea. She liked the darkness, liked the feeling of his arms around her, and liked how it felt when he kissed her. Of course, she hardly knew the guy so it didn't really mean anything, but she was definitely enjoying it. She liked the mystery and excitement involved.
She chuckled when he said he needed to refresh his memory, laughing against his lips as he started to kiss her again. He pulled her closer and Dom found herself doing the same thing, sighing as she let herself get lost in the kiss. He knocked into something and Dom jumped when she heard it crash to the floor. He stopped kissing her, but didn't pull away. Dom laughed softly, "Mmhmm sure. That was probably a major hint." Dom couldn't help but tease him now as she took a small step backward and quirked her head to the side a little. "I'm not quite sure I can ignore it," she added, taking another step away as she smirked over at him. Seeing the way he reacted to something like this would definitely help her get to know him a little more. She was a little surprised that she did want to know him, at least a little bit.

Joe cocked his head to the side with a slightly confused, but amused expression. ”A hint for what?” he asked her with furrowed brows, taking a look at her face before playfully shaking his head from side to side in disagreement, ”Probably a hint that the next place I’m heading is the hospital...” Joe teased, offering another kiss and lingering there for a moment. This whole experience was so exhilarating, he didn’t think he’d be having an adventure at Hogsmeade today. As he stepped toward her to lean in, glass crunched under his shoes, ”Worth it.” he said with a laugh against her lips, stealing another kiss before he pulled away this time.
His hands dropped from her waist, he finally had a chance to look around the basement for a moment. Again, nothing special. Joe head cocked to the side as he turned to Dom, ”So, what do you think? It’s a bit of a fixer upper, but up for a challenge?” Joe asked playfully, as if he were a professional real estate agent or something. He gestured and reached for a dangling piece of wood from the wall next to them and yanked it down with a thud, dust danced around the air while Joe smiled and shrugged.

Joe looked confused, asking what she was talking about when she mentioned a hint. Dom was about to answer him when he spoke again, telling her that the next place he was going was the hospital. Now she was the one who was confused. The hospital? But he leaned forward, kissing her lingeringly and Dom kissed him back, smiling as they kissed. She liked how he just acted, not really waiting for her to tell him to or make the first move. He just went for it, which was definitely the kind of attitude she could appreciate. He said it was worth it before kissing her again and Dom smirked. "Agreed," she answered simply. Kissing him was worth breaking things down here, especially since no one cared about anything in this basement. Dom was fairly certain no one had been down here in ages.
He released her, looking around the basement and Dom cocked her head to the side as she watched him. What was he doing? He asked what she thought, saying the place was a "fixer upper" and then asked if she was up for the challenge. Dom laughed, "What kind of a challenge? Are you saying we should fix it up or risk coming here despite the danger?" He pulled a piece off wood off of the wall and she shook her head, "Or are you saying we should break it down more? I'm not entirely certain where you're going with this Joe," she teased, stepping away from him as she took a turn to look around the basement. It was worn down, but what interested her here were the items on the shelf. They were old and half of them she couldn't even tell what they were.

Joe snorted at her question, as if the answer was so obvious. He shook his head before raking a hand back through his hair with amused smile on his face. He was obviously only joking about moving in. Joe shrugged his shoulders, still joking more than anything, "I was thinking we could fix it up, but breaking it down would definitely be more fun... " he mused sarcastically with a laugh, making a funny face. Destroying the house would have been something fun for him about a year ago, but he was simmering down from destructive tantrums like that. And he didn't really care to get himself all dirty.. He peered at the shelves that Dom was looking at, he squinted to get a better look at one of the jars. It had an animal floating in liquid inside it. All of the jars lined up had different creatures inside. He carefully pushed the jar away from the shelves edge with one finger. "Thankfully we didn't knock one of those down..." he laughed with a scrunched nose, unphased by the jars in reality, they were just old and kind of gross.
Taking a step backwards toward the stairs, he reached for Doms hand, more so that she couldn't hide from him again once his back was turned. He was already learning how sneaky and fun she was. All of this exploring had him growing quite the appetite though. Joe turned to face Dom, "Are you hungry?" he asked with a hopeful smile, before his lips curled into a smirk, "Come eat with me so we can start the official date now." he told her in a demanding but playful tone, waggling his eyebrows at her. He was enjoying that they could flirt and joke around with so much ease.

It was so interesting to see his response to her teasing questions. Obviously Joe wasn’t taking her seriously, which was probably for the best. Knowing that she was rarely serious was quite important when it came to knowing and understanding Dominique Weasley. She cocked an eyebrow at him with a playful expression when he answered her questions. “Being destructive is always more fun,” she agreed, “but imagine all the things we could do here if it weren’t a dump ...” Of course Dom didn’t mean it, she was just playing along with him. She chuckled when Joe mentioned that it wasn’t good they hadn’t broken one of “these” jars and Dom leaned over to see what exactly he was talking about. “Definitely,” she agreed with a firm nod before turning her attention to another section of the shelf.
She was about to tease him again by sneaking off when Joe reached over and took Dom’s hand. She looked over at him, her eyes glinting. She was impressed. He turned to face her, asking if she was hungry and Dom laughed. “I’m always hungry,” she told him. Anyone that went to Hogwarts with Dom knew that she had a big appetite and wasn’t worried about eating in front of people. “Ooooh a date? So that’s what this is ... all right, take me to get some good food then,” she agreed easily. What? Dom never said no to good food or good company and it looked like she was going to have both of those today.

This day ended up being so much more exciting than he anticipated it to be. When he ventured out to Hogsmeade solo today, he was expecting that he would end up coming back early with more quidditch supplies he didn't really need. That definitely wasn't the case. He met a new friend, explored a cool place, and they exchanged a passionate kiss. This was what he needed since moving to Scotland. He was seeking an experience to distract him from the recurring homesickness that hit him like a bag of bricks. Every day it got a little easier because it meant he was closer to completion of his wizarding education abroad and going back home to New York for good. Joe nodded his head agreeably when Dom spoke more about the house, loving that she was playing along still. "Yeah, and we can charge the spirits and demons living here rent." he snorted. Hopefully no one was listening to their conversation... Joe smiled when she said that she loved food, and winked when she agreed to the date, "It could be whatever you want it to be." he chimed, green eyes flickering with amusement as they started up the rickety stairs. She told him to take her to get good food and he turned back to smile behind his shoulder charmingly, happy to butter her up, "Your wish is my command." he laughed, leading her out of the house and hopefully toward good food. Honestly, he didn't really know Hogsmeade too well. -- end -- @dominique
