Something in Me [Elaine]

❊ BACK TO NEVERLAND ❊

Everyone has a sweet tooth. Sometimes they fight it and walked away from the temptation, but other times they cave and get some sugary treats. That's the battle one auror was currently fighting. She could walk away from the store and continue on with her shopping. She could, but why would she?

That's how Victoire ended up with two big bags full of candy while she ordered a butterbeer at a table in The Three Broomsticks. Funny looks from students walking in didn't phase the girl. She could lie and say she was going to spoil her brother and sister with candy when they would show up. But why do that when she can proudly admit she has a huge sweet tooth that gets the best of her when she should be shopping for potion ingredients?  Victoire reached into the bag closest to her and took out a chocolate frog. She around her and slowly opened it. Maybe she should have participated in Quidditch. The chocolate frog jumped out of it's box and hopped onto a third year student who shrieked and ran out of The Three Broomsticks. The blonde bit her lip and mouthed a "sorry" to the student's friends, who laughed at their scared friend.

Victoire looked down at the card and sighed. "Another Harry Potter? God Uncle Harry, you're more common than Dumbledore now." She threw the card back in her bag and pulled out another chocolate frog. As she opened it, Victoire quickly grabbed the chocolate frog and bit  the head off. The candy stopped moving and her hazel eyes met a new card in her collection. "Hermione Granger! You're more rare than the founders!" She soon realized she had yelled throughout the tavern and took another bite of her chocolate frog before checking out the new card.

One might not be able to tell from looking at the admittedly tall and scrawny looking young woman (she was 5 foot 9 and only 140 pounds) -- but the girl loooved food. She liked to eat. What could we say? She loved the homemade meals her mom made the best but she couldn’t always get that as much as she hated to admit to it. And most of the time to food at the great hall was…all right. But by no means was it the same. Whoever or whatever made it really didn’t have the concept of homemade and good down…probably because they had to cook for so darn many. But that was beside the point. The point was she was getting sick of that food right now. And so she was off to find something better. Not that anything was going to top mom but there had to be something better.

And thus why she found herself at the three broomsticks. A place she didn’t come to very often—for all of the other people (it was what she was taking to calling any halfblood or mudblood here lately) that were hanging around. Ugh she could not stand them sometimes…err all the times actually. They did not belong here! She screamed this in her mind as she saw a group of them all at a single table—laughing and giggling like the fools they were. The only thing that kept her from lashing out sometimes (other than the trouble she knew it would bring onto her head) was just the fact that soon enough she would soon show them all. She would show them all just how much they did not deserve to be here. And what a mistake they had made by coming here.

She was thrown out of her thoughts by a third year who screeched before getting to her feet and bolting out of the door. What in the hell bit her? She heard a croaking sound and looked down to see the probable cause of the problem – a chocolate frog. Elaine blinked a few times. Seriously? All that fuss over a bloody frog of all things? How frivolous could you really get?
The Slytherin girl reached down and picked up the frog…and hmmed as she tried to figure out who it had come from. She heard the outburst from the other table as someone was clearly looking through wizarding cards and so that must mean that she had frogs and so this hunk of moving candy was her’s. She didn’t recognize the other yet—as a ministry worker—but that was beside the point. Elaine cleared her throat as she walked up towards the woman frog in hand,

”Excuse me? I think this is yours.”

❊ BACK TO NEVERLAND ❊

Victoire had finished off the chocolate frog as she examined her new card. "It looks better in the flesh," she commented on it. Soon, she threw the card back into her back and grabbed another box. "Maybe I'll get another rare card." As she was about to open her third box that day, a dark haired young woman approached her. In the stranger's hand was the chocolate frog that she had ...lost earlier. By now the chocolate frog wasn't moving in the woman's hand, having the charm worn off. ”Excuse me? I think this is yours.”

That it was. Victoire examined the young woman closer. She didn't look familiar, looked about the same age as James. "Yes," she took the chocolate frog from the girl. "Silly me forgot how quick they can be. I wasn't a Quidditch player for a reason, I suppose." She chuckled and stuck the chocolate frog in her bag. "Sorry about that. If it weren't for the cards, I don't think I'd buy the damn things." The blonde looked down at her unopened box and looked back at the other girl. "Why don't you take a seat and open this one, never know what card you might find." She motioned the seat across from her and laid the box in front of it. "The name's Victoire, by the way."
