RP The Three Broomsticks

Pub and inn.

Millie entered and found a table large enough to sit all of them.

Sirius and Amy entered and sat down.

Lily was sat at a table on her own, reading.

Remus, James and Evangeline sat down, too, the latter opposite Sirius. Just to make things harder for him. Wink wink. James was glancing at Lily every now and then.

R: What're we ordering then?

M: I'll have a butterbeer.

Millie sat on the end, next to Evangeline. She looked around, recognizing a few of her Hufflepuff friends, though not really anyone of interest.

S: Same.

A: Bet I can get a Firewhiskey.

J: No way you can get a firewhiskey.

E: I'll just have a gillywater.

Amy squeezed up her face, which aged considerably. Her hair shortened, turning brown.

A: I can.

M: That's pretty convincing.

J: Bet you a galleon you can't.

R: I'm gonna go order. So that's four butterbeers and a gillywater?

Evangeline nodded, yes.

J: Hey, order five.

R: Why?

J: Just order five and send one over to Lily's table, compliments of me.

E: Who says romance is dead? What a gentleman.

At this she gave Sirius a meaningful look that told him she thought he was anything but.

A: You're on.

She stood and walked to the bar.

M: I wish someone did that for me.

She sighed dreamily.

Remus went up with her and ordered their drinks, pretending not to know Amy.

E: One day they will.

A: One Firewhiskey, please.

Sirius kept glancing at Evangeline.

M: Hopefully. Better yet, send me a broom instead of a drink.

She grinned at the thought.

E: He'd have to really like you to send you such an expensive gift.

Evangeline laughed, fully aware of Sirius watching her and fully intending to ignore him for the rest of her life.

Amy walked back over with a Firewhiskey.

A: Galleon?

James scowled and slid a gold coin over to her.

J: Whatever, you look ugly old.

Remus came back with their drinks.

J: Did you send one to Lily?

R: Yes.

Lily looked at her butterbeer, then James. She looked a bit shell shocked.

Amy changed back and sipped her drink.

James smiled from across the room for a second, then went back to his friends. Evangeline sipped her gillywater quietly, thinking about what kind of charms had been used on the jumper.

R: So... everyone had fun today?

A: Yes.

She answered too quickly.

Sirius looked a bit miffed. He was finding it very difficult to not stare at Evangeline.

R: Is that the Firewhiskey talking?

Evangeline kept smiling secretively to herself.

Amy sipped at her drink again, and winced.

A: It's not. Good day.

Sirius pursed his lips.

R: You look like you're really enjoying that.

E: I've never been a fan of firewhiskey.

Amy shook her head.

A: It's... Nice.
