Everywhere seems to have its own personality about it. America and the city Lars had been living in over there wasn’t bad in anyway but it just didn’t feel right to him as he was there. He didn’t feel like it was home no matter how hard he tried or his family attempted to convince him otherwise. They kept saying he would get used to it or find something he enjoyed but in the few years he spent in America it just never did become home. Yet he had only been back in Europe a few months and everything just felt right. Possibly because he never connected with anything in America that made it feel like where he wanted to be. Europe was where he wanted to be and even if he was hiding that from himself while with his family, the notion was still in his heart.
In the few months that seemed to fly by he just didn’t find much time to do anything besides get life sorted out. It began with him not telling anyone he was coming back to Europe in fear he would just end up going back to America is he couldn’t find a Quidditch team or a job. Once he did thankfully join a team he had to find a place to stay and get everything sorted out there. In the whirlwind of moving and meeting his team was practice and practice games. Life was as hectic as could be but Lars enjoyed every moment of it. Telling himself he would owl everyone he was back when he actually had time. Still it was always on his mind, he missed the people he had considered friends since he left Europe. He just didn’t want to tell people and not have time to spend with them.
Lars was currently in Diagon alley, it wasn’t much of a break from running around either setting up his home or training. Yet he had found sometime to relax while he ordered new Quidditch gear. He hadn’t been paying attention to much as he sat near the Quidditch shop. Yet Lars did notice people kept looking at him, he was possibly looking too serious again and thought he was giving them a dirty look. Yet that thought was quickly abandoned after he smelled the faint hint of menthol cigarettes. It was a rare scent in the magical world as not to many in this community seemed to smoke. Lars’ mind wandered to Dana as that was the type she smoked when she would hide away during his seventh year. He laughed at the thought that it might be her, doubting it till he saw a familiar blonde walking down the alley smoking and he smiled to himself for a moment.
Lars decided to follow and once he was closer finally spoke up. “Miss, are you aware smoking is bad for you?” Lars attempted to tease for a moment but it came out in his serious tone as always. Prepared for if she might remember his voice or get annoyed at a stranger till she noticed it was him.

Things seemed to take a toll on the Knox girl in recent events. From her job, to her frequent visits to her younger brother all up to the events and drama that England were filled with. Usually Dana would brush things to the side – not really seeing them as big problems and more of a problem that can be fixed. But with a deadline pinned to her group’s next research piece around Pluto and the magical moons and realms around it, what could the astronomer do apart from stress? Nothing. So that’s how the blonde found herself in Diagon Alley, a menthol cigarette wrapped between her index and middle finger.
For months Dana stopped smoking, listening to the advice from her mother and friends like Lars for instance. But at times like this when neither person was around to calm her anxiety the killing drug helped out. The Knox had no idea in mind but followed wherever her feet took her, her hand performing one action and one action only. To lift the deadly thing into her mouth and drop by her side again. Lift, inhale, exhale, flick, repeat. Pretty simple. With the months reaching into the chilly season, Dana’s other hand wrapped her coat gently around herself as the wind brushed lightly, pushing blonde locks to the side.
A small smile crept onto her lips as Dana felt nostalgic. Aside from the casual smoking, she recalled the times she’d walk through the Alley with her friends; in search for a new wand or even just a casual day out during the holiday terms. Though, while Dana was still a Hogwarts student, she remembered not leaving her muggle-home for some time during her parent’s divorce or even leave the hospital after the incident. It was a tough time to reminisce on, but the thought of it showed how stronger the Knox had become. But with the sound of a stranger pulling her out of her thoughts caused the blonde’s brows to furrow and her lips to scowl.
”Are you aware smoking is bad for you-?” Dana didn’t need to hear the entire sentence before the topic angered her. The Knox knew that not many people smoked in general but she used it as a stress-reliever. Excuses. With a huff, Dana flipped some of her hair over her shoulder, bringing the cigarette to her lips once more as her head turned slightly, blue eyes catching sight of the person’s lower-half. As of lately, she felt hesitant to look into other’s eyes; fearful of their judgement, especially with the muggle item in her fingers. ”And are you aware it’s none of your-“ Just as she was about to finish her sentence; her eyes glanced upwards taking in the familiar face.
”Business…” She said in a whisper. Her mouth hung open while blue eyes were met with rimmed tears. When had he returned? Dana thought to herself. ”L-Lars.” The sight of her friend and even old crush brought a rush of memories to the blonde’s mind. But here, she found herself lost for words, filled with a stir of emotions. Before the Hutton boy left for his trips in Europe after graduation, Dana remembered holding a letter with her confession behind her back – cheesy but better than an owl or a stutter-filled confession. She never handed it over to him.
”What are you doing here? I last heard you were in…Paris?” | |

If anyone had asked their option of Lars just on first glance he always assumed people would say he was a very serious person. Lars knew he was most of the time but there was rare moments he enjoyed being silly or doing something dumb. Lars knew Dana’s reaction would be one of being annoyed at a stranger talking about her smoking but he hoped for it. It would be a funny moment and would possibly be a better way of breaking the news that he was back. At least one way of being an ice breaker and if fate was going to have her walking by he might as well take it. As she flipped her hair for a moment he could tell he was going to get just the reaction he wanted.
Lars smiled as she started saying he should mind his own business. As she got to the last work she realized it was him. “Oh? I guess I should get going then?” Lars teased, something he was never good at but with Dana and a few select people it felt natural. “Hello Dana.” He replied as she said his name out of pure confusion he assumed. It wasn’t everyday people just showed up out of nowhere. She asked what he was doing here and how she had heard the last place he was at was Paris. “Paris was just a small trip before my family and I actually moved to America. Like a vacation of sorts.” Lars explained skipping the part where she asked why he was here for a moment. “America was fun and all I suppose.” He paused there for a moment knowing full well that was a lie, America had been rather boring for him. “Yet I missed Europe and my friends here. Enough about me, how have you been?”

Dana couldn’t help but crack a smile at the Hutton’s lame jokes. It was something he was known for and something the blonde truly enjoyed. As he spoke, the Knox girl found herself dropping her half empty packet of cigarettes into a nearby bin, the small devil inside of her that craved the minty nicotine crying with agony. For Lars, she didn’t mind doing anything. She couldn’t help but notice the shift of attention from himself to her – something that led to confusion washing upon the blonde’s face. ”Moved? To America? I thought you always hated the States?” she questioned. Dana was one of the many few that disliked her America heritage; the idea of America being a boring place screwed into her mind.
The blonde blinked a few times, her eyes widening slowly as she tugged at the skin of her arm, leaving a small mark revealing where the girl pinched herself. With her old-school crush standing before her Dana wanted to confirm that it was in fact reality and not just a fantasy. ”I’m okay.” she said with a breathless smile, blue eyes watching the other, a wave of warmth building within them. The stir of emotions Dana felt only continued to increase – as if someone stirred a pot inside of her. The Knox was confused and unsure of what to feel or even think – fearful the Hutton boy could even read her mind. As impossible as it seemed.
”I’m an astronomer now.” She finally stated, speaking up about her own recent events. ”Noah’s slowly waking up, he still twitches but continues to make progress.” While he didn’t ask about her family, Lars was one of the few many people who helped Dana and her family through the tough moments, words of inspiration pushing them to do better – for the sake of Noah too. From the pause he had taken, Dana could only assume his true intentions – to genuinely live here once more.

Dana questioned him for a moment asking about America and confused thinking he had a problem with the states. “I wouldn't say hated but it wasn’t a place I saw myself going. Then my parents decided they wanted to uproot everything since my father found work in America.” Lars explained, as there wasn’t much more to it than his parents just found work overseas. “I could have stayed in Europe but between my parents and siblings asking me to come as well. I didn’t really feel I had much of a choice.” He said with an almost embarrassed laugh that he had pretty much beenguilt tripped into coming or his family would miss him. “I Had a job with Macusa for a bit but that got old pretty quick.” Lars waited while she began to talk about how she had been, he hadn’t had much of a send an to owl Dana so he could only hope she had been doing well. she explained that she had been okay, which wasn’t as reassuring as he had hoped for while she paused for a moment. “Just okay? Well, you still look amazing as always.” Lars said complimenting the blonde, people had always accused him of flirting when he compliment people especially Dana. Yet he just thought he was being nice and didn’t take those notions too serious.
“That’s wonderful, I guess all that staring off in space is finally paying off.” He let out a small laugh as he attempted to tease Dana for a second. “Still you did always love planets, the moon all that stuff so it’s perfect.” Lars added as Dana turned the conversation toward her brother. Who had been bedridden for the most part since the accident years ago. Lars was amazed to hear that Noah was making some progress in healing, when he left there hadn’t been much improvement. “I should stop by whatever hospital he’s at some time and visit. If he’s awake I doubt he’d remember me since I only saw him a few summers but still. It’d be nice.” At the same time he needed to make time for a lot of things in his life but once things quieted down it would be less of a problem to find that time.
“That’s the plan, I’ve actually started playing Quidditch again. Well I never really stopped after I left school but now I’m on an official Quidditch team.” There was a proud tone in his voice as he explained and confirmed that he was in Europe again for good. “So maybe someday when you’re not too busy watching the stars you can come watch me in the skies.”

Dana couldn’t help but stifle a laugh, she remembered the owls Lars had sent to her of the trips he had made in Europe and how much he enjoyed each place, so to hear he moved to America – a place he felt unsure about somehow made the blonde giggle. Though as he complimented her, her laugh cut short and a flush of red washed over her face and her entire body. Even her small ears were red too. Turning her head to the side slightly to avoid his gaze, the Knox girl mumbled a ”Thanks” while her fingers pushed some of her locks behind her ear.
In the hand that a singular cigarette remained, Dana dropped it to the floor – crushing it gently with the front of her shoe. ”That’s offensive!” she giggled, as he teased her. ”I never stared off into space…Just preoccupied in my thoughts.” She added, defending herself. As the Hutton commented on visiting her brother, she couldn’t help but smile softly – the thought of the three of them being together reminding her of better times. ”He’s at St Mungos. Long story short, he should have been there to start with but Mom had hope in the Muggles.”
The sound of the word Quidditch brought a smile to the Knox girl’s face. Lars was the entire reason Dana had a passion for the sport, as well as the reason she was grateful for him, since she heard word that Lars played for her while the blonde mourned for her family. So, to hear he would be playing again brought excitement. ”That’s amazing!!” she beamed, coming closer towards the Hutton. Though his last comment led to a soft blush creeping onto the Knox’s cheeks, warming her face with a light red glow.
”I’d like that. Although I’m never busy anymore, our intense research project ended a few days ago.” | |

Dana laughed as he mentioned how he found himself in America and Lars couldn’t blame her. It was a weird situation but he couldn’t say no so easily to his family. Especially with the idea of his siblings going off to a new land alone. He’d rather be there than anywhere else. As he complimented Dana she stopped laughing for a moment and he noticed she was blushing. He couldn’t remember if she always got so red when he said something like that to her, he felt like she did just a little. He chalked this up to embarrassing her by the compliment, still that never stopped him before. Dana got out a thanks and he just laughed a little quietly yo himself.
As they talked Dana had proceeded to both throw away her cigarettes and crush the one she was smoking. Lars hadn’t meant what he said as some kind of urge for her to stop smoking yet he wasn’t going to say anything against it. It was bad for a person after all and he never wanted to see Dana get hurt from it. “Uh-huh, sure if that what you want to call it.” Lars continued tease for a moment and it felt just like back at school for a moment. Just Dana and him going back and forth. Dana explained that he brother was actually at St.Mungos which was a surprise but a welcomed one even if her mother hoped he would just be a muggle. “That’s excellent. Muggle medicine is great and all but he’ll do much better at St.Mungos I can only imagine.” Lars was happy to hear that magic could be helping her little brother even if muggle medicine wasn’t doing the job.
As Lars explained how he was here to stay and playing Quidditch once more Dana cheered him on, stating it was amazing. “I know.” Lars agreed with a pause as it felt great to finally tell a friend what was happening in his life. “I’m seeker, obviously.” He paused as he teased for a moment, as if he would play any other role if he didn’t have too. “I’m playing for the Wimbourne Wasps, I’ll make sure to save you some tickets just don’t resale them.” Lars teased for a moment knowing she never would.
After which Dana explained how she wasn’t as busy as she normally was due to just finishing a project recently. “I’ll have to steal you away so we can hang out sometime. After my life can stop being so busy. Between moving in and practices I haven’t had a chance to do anything else.” Lars explained with a laugh as that was the honest truth of his life at this moment. He had only been lucky enough to run into Dana today.

Blue eyes filled with excitement burned in Lars’ direction as he teased her around the moments the Knox girl would dose off. Sometimes within Hogwarts she felt more tired than normal, leading her to daydream and eventually nap. Dana truthfully had no clue how she passed her classes. As Lars commented on his brother’s condition and how Noah would be better off in St Mungos, the blonde found herself nodding, a small frown upon her lips. She began to explain of the healer she had met – Callisto and the budding friendship they had. While Noah was unconscious, Dana knew deep down he was listening in.
Though as the topic shifted, Dana’s smile returned – forming into a beaming grin. ”Seeker? For the Wimbourne Wasps? That’s honestly amazing Lars. Congratulations.” out of instinct from her own excitement, she couldn’t help but reach out for Lars’ hands, squeezing them lightly. Throughout the time they knew each other – and even with her other friends – Dana seemed to rely on touch. It was a good way for her to portray her emotions and reassurance. ”Why would I resell them.” she questioned, giggling. ”Viktor is more than likely to do that over me.” Ever since graduating herself, Dana hadn’t seen Viktor but spoke through owls, questioning on how each other was and if they heard from their mutual friend: Lars.
”Your life doesn’t seem busy as of right now.” she teased, dropping Lars hands from her own grasp and folding her arms – her grin turning into a smirk. ”You could potentially steal me away…right now.” the blonde added with a shrug. Dana knew today must have been a sort of break for the Hutton, but the excitement that laid within her just couldn’t believe the two were together once more. ”That is, if you want to? We could go…grab lunch?” Dana arms soon dropped to her side, while one hand lifted, pushing her locks behind her ear once more.
The blonde found herself fiddling with her hands yet again – pushing her hair behind her ear – reaching out for Lars – the smallest actions were ways that Dana prevented herself from fumbling with a cigarette resting in her pocket within its small box. She knew it was a nasty habit; especially when she picked it up in Hogwarts as the same thing would happen. Dana just needed to keep her hands busy. | |

Dana questioned him for a moment about both his role and team before congratulating him. Lars assumed she just repeated those out of shock. He had just shown up out of no where and with news that he was on a professional team. If this hadn’t been happening to him he would have been surprised as well. “Thanks, paper work never suited me. Even if my mother was hoping I’d do something in law with the Macusa or even the ministry.” Lars joked about the subject even if he knew it was true. Still his mother had three other siblings to push those dreams on, one was bound to follow them. In Dana’s excitement she reach for and held his hand. Lars just smiled, when they first met he hadn’t been that into random physical contact. He still wasn’t with strangers but he had grown used to and enjoyed it with Dana. It’s just who she was and he had grown to like it.
Dana giggled out a response to his joke of reselling the tickets, bringing up another friend he hadn’t seen in some time. “You know, I don’t doubt that as long as the money would be more than the entertainment of watching the game.” Lars laughed in agreement, even if it was just a little harsh teasing on someone who wasn’t here at he moment.
It was hard to disagree as Dana pointed out how he wasn’t too busy right now. This was true after all, he was free for most of the day since he was just waiting for his new equipment to come in. “How can I disagree if you’re just going to offer?” He replied with a small laugh as she suggested they could go get some lunch. Which didn’t sound too bad at the moment. “Lunch sounds perfect, anywhere in particular you want to go? There’s the leaky cauldron or that tea shop around here, they have little sandwiches I suppose. Anywhere is good with me.” He explained as he wasn’t sure what was actually open still or new, he hadn’t explored Diagon alley fully yet besides the quidditch shop and knowing the leaky cauldron could almost never be closed.
It wasn’t hard to see that Dana was fiddling with her hands for a moment. Either avoiding the urge to smoke or just nervous and not knowing what to do with them for the moment. Lars just smiled for a moment before offering his hand, anything to ease the stress on a friend. “This way I can't just disappear again, you pick where to go and it’ll be my treat. How about that?”

A soft laugh left Dana’s lips as she nodded in agreement to the comment about his mother. While Lars and herself met up quite often during the time spent away from Hogwarts she had never really met the Hutton’s family aside from the few times she had saw his sister’s and the one-time Dana had met his father. As Lars responded to her comment about using their current free time together she couldn’t help but grin, her hand pushing her blonde hair behind her ear once more as she replied with: ”You can’t disagree because you know you don’t want to.”
Lunch was Dana’s favourite time in the day – something she had definitely shared with Lars while the two attended Hogwarts together. As they were both within Slytherin, Dana always hoped to spend lunch with him and a few of his friends or even vice versa. Though the thought of eating lunch together on their own as adults brought a blush to her face. The blush that rested on her cheeks only deepened in its hues as the Hutton offered out his hand to which she responded by sliding her palm against his. ”’That tea shop’ is fine by me.” she stated, mocking him teasingly.
As they began to start walking, Dana was interested in what exactly Lars had been doing in his time away. Clearly from the amount of traveling he had done, he must have been doing a lot. Though, the Knox girl still remained curious – especially within his love-life area. But it seemed strange to bring up such a strange and deep topic to create small talk, so instead she remained quiet, her blue eyes glancing up at him every so often and down at their joint hands. Dana knew Lars wasn’t one for psychical contact but somehow, she still managed to change his mind.

Dana moved her hair once more before claiming he also couldn’t disagree because she knew he didn’t want to either. “You might have a point there.” Lars replied with a laugh as she was correct. He couldn’t think of anything he’d rather do in this moment. Spending time with Dana was always a highlight of his during years at Hogwarts. The time apart just made that even more obvious to him. He didn’t like to admit it and attempted to ignore it back in America but he missed Europe and the people he knew more than anyone could have imagined. Yet he always just put a brave face on for his family. “Still. I can’t just just admit that so freely. Lord knows you might just let it go to your head.” Lars added teasingly for a second.
Of course she would pick the tea shop as she held his hand once more, it wasn’t a bad choice but it was just... a tea shop. It was hard enough explaining that he was going to madam Puddifoots just to meet a friend. Tea shops always seemed to be associated with couples. “Tea shop it is.” He replied and they started to make their way down the alley toward it. Lars knew how it might look holding hands with another person to a stranger and while he knew it was just with a friend he couldn’t have cared less what the opinion or thoughts of others might have been. “So how is the astronomy business? Mars still in the same place it always is and all that?” Lars asked teasingly as he attempted to talk about Dana’s job. She was one to love the moon and stars. Lars on the other hand just thought they looked pretty and didn’t really get much deeper than that.

Dana couldn’t help but laugh lightly as the two of them walked side by side through the alleyways to the Tea Shop. While her ego had been large and strong once before, her ego soon took a hit after the accident and Dana soon gave up on trying to impress people or focus on her looks. Although with a lot of undergoing recovery and a new-found thing to focus on, Dana’s ego and socialness was back on the rise – soon to reach sky high. ”Oh trust me. It’s already there.” She shrugged, letting out a giggle.
While the Tea shop was known for being an exclusive place for couples – Dana didn’t see it that way. Sure, the both of them were adults, possibly both single and Dana had a huge crush for Lars – that didn’t change anything. The Knox girl knew there would come a day when she would be ready and able to express her feelings to the Hutton she knew today just wasn’t that day. Especially with their reunion being the same moment. With their hands entwined, Dana believed it to be rather platonic and simply normal. Friends must do this all the time…Right? she thought to herself. ”Mars is in the exact same place.” She said, rolling her eyes as a smile touched her lips. ”Not much progress on the small things, but we’re discussing Pluto’s status again. She’s a planet – I just know it.” Astronomy was one thing that got Dana riled up – especially when discussing her favourite planets. ”Aside from moving and all that chaos…What about you? Your mom? Dad? Sisters? Are they all well?”

Lars laughed as Dana claimed her being correct had already gone to her head. “Well then it’s already like old times I suppose.” He teased for a moment while they continued down the alley hand in hand toward the tea shop. It already did feel just like when they were back in school if he was being honest with himself and he enjoyed that. It was nice to already feel past any awkward reunion and just be friends again with someone he had missed for sometime.
He just laughed as Dana played along with his teasing about mars noticing her rolling her eyes at his question. Astronomy wasn’t even close to an area of his expertise but getting things obviously wrong or playing a little dumb about it was always fun just to see how Dana reacted. She had always been obsessed with the stars and planets, especially Pluto so it hadn’t been too much of a surprise that she had become an astronomer. “Have you asked Pluto how it feels about it? Maybe it’s fine being a baby planet and not a full sized one?” Lars teased once again while they walked, it was amazing just how free it felt to talk to Dana again. Most people he was rather quiet with at first or in general. The conversation soon turned to how he and his family were doing, something he had expected. “My parents are both good. They both seem to love it in America, no idea why really but whatever works for them I suppose. My sisters took some time to get used to the move but they are good, since Ilvermorny was attacked they are actually getting tutored at home for a bit.” Lar attempted to explain, if his parents knew that he would be moving to Europe they might have had them go to Hogwarts like most of the other students. “They weren’t too thrilled at first but it’s just how it is.”

Another eye roll was expected of Dana Knox but instead she found herself lightly hitting Lars’ arm while a laugh left her lips. It was always natural of the Hutton to tease her, especially when it came to the things she loved – or the things she loved to do. Which was usually eating or dreaming of space. ”Pluto wants to be reinstated; thank you very much.” She stated, tilting her chin up and ‘humphing’ like a child, before laughing out of habit.
Though as the conversation topic shifted to his family, the blonde found herself nodding, out of understanding and confusion. She was aware of the attack on Ilvermorny but was rather confused as to why his entire family just didn’t move back to Europe – to attend Hogwarts instead. But it was a question she would rather not ask. ”Maybe they love it because it’s something different than to England. You know? Less drama and chaos.” In the events that had panned out recently, why would anyone want to be here anyway? ”Your sisters have always cute, even when they complained.” Dana smiled, remembering some small memories of when she last saw the two. ”Unlike somebody, who always complained at the smallest things.” She added, in a teasing tone.
As they turned the corner, the bright colours of the tea shop were the one thing that caught the Knox girl’s attention, followed by the cursive writing of the sign that Dana thought was always a little extra. To the blonde, it felt as if the tea shop had gone under many changes, especially with an addition to the large frilly bows as well as an increase to the amount of couples around. Dana found herself blushing lightly as she watched as couples bundled next to one another, holding hands as well as other various…couple-like-actions. But she knew it wouldn’t be a problem with Lars, considering how carefree both of them were.

Dana lightly punched him after he had teased her on her determination that Pluto was a planet. Explaining that indeed Pluto did want to be a planet once more. “Hey, it’s an important question. Some people are proud to be short. I just figured it was proud to be a smaller planet than the rest.” Lars explained, teasing obviously but unable to help himself. Especially if Dana was going to play along but he shouldn’t have expected anything different as this was just how it always was. “Well if you need me to sign some petition to get it reinstated, just ask.” Lars added with a laugh.
She explained that possibly his parents liked it over there because there was less drama and chaos. Which till the damage done to Ilvermorny was certainly true but compared to what had been happening in Europe, the damage to Ilvermorny was nothing. “You might have a point but they both enjoy their new jobs there too much to leave. It was just boring to me over there, office work just isn’t for me.” Lars laughed after that but it was the truth, he gave it a shot to both just say he had a job and to attempt to make his family proud. Yet it wasn’t something he could nor wanted to see himself doing for the rest of his life. Dana called his sister cute even when they complained unlike someone else who complained about even the smallest things. He laughed for a moment as Lars was well aware that she was talking about him. “That’s pretty rude, are you saying I’m not cute when I complain?”
As they turned a corner of the alley it didn’t take his eyes long enough to lock onto what he could only imagine was the tea shop. Lars would like to have imagined it was because he was a seeker and was trained to find things he needed to find but the shop didn’t make it hard. It was brightly colored and didn’t attempt to hide its attempt to be a cutesy tea shop. As they got closer the number of couples increased till they got to the tea shop. “It’s not too late to pick somewhere else.” Lars teased as they got to the door of the tea shop. Knowing full well she wasn’t about to change her mind Lars held the door open for Dana, “after you.”
