♕ 4th Queen♕

While I'm sure nobody will care. I'm just letting everyone know that I wont be going to Hogsmead this weekend.

I'm really in no mood for frivolous traipsing about in the local town to be quiet honest. And I will very much enjoy the silence of the tower being quiet.

It will let me catch up on my writing. It's not like I wanted to go out anyway.

I'm not going either. Got a whole lot of homework to do myself, and I'd rather practice Quidditch anyway.

[Filtered]

You keen on more practise sessions?

I have practice all Sunday apparently.

But I wouldn't say no to some on Saturday. If that's no trouble of course.

Sounds goods. Would the afternoon be alright with you? I've still got some homework I need to finish up, and at the rate I'm going I don't think I'll be able to get it done until noon.

That would be fantastic. Thank you.

On the field, or somewhere else?

The field's good I think. Unless you'd like somewhere else?

No, the field is fine. It was just in case you had something else in mind.

It's where I do most of my own training. There aren't a lot of people booking it on Saturday either, so there'll be plenty of space for us. How's Quidditch going for you? I hope Stark's been treating you alright. He's a bit of ~~a pri~~ an insufferable overconfident idiot, but I think he'd make a good leader. He's got this...charm, I think you'd call it that.

He's actually surprisingly serious as a captain. Understanding too, he watches us all very carefully during practices and gives us adjustments.

And yes, he's quite charming when he wants to be.

What time roughly should I be there?

It's good that he's actually taking something seriously for once then.

How about after lunch? 1pm?

I think he just wants to show up the other houses.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Figures.

I guess I'll see you then.

[And he's actually supposed to leave it at that. But he really can't, can he, even with homework breathing down his neck. ]

Victoria, are you alright? Did something happen?

No. Nothing's happened. Why would you think something has happened?

[Pause]

Because it hasn't.

[Not that she's obvious or anything]

I've never thought that you'd be one to skip on a Hogsmeade trip, especially when Honey Dukes is involved.

And you're...not exactly acting like yourself.

[Another pause.]

I've just got homework that needs to be done.

And I'm acting perfectly like myself.

I thought you said you wanted to catch up on your writing?

Victoria, seriously, what's wrong? You've helped me out before, let me return the favour.

[It takes her a moment, and her handwriting is a little less neat.]

I am ~~was~~

Just feeling unimportant. But. It's better now.

[The word is....strange. And something he really didn't expect coming from her.]

I don't know how you got this idea, but you do matter Victoria. To me and especially to Arthur.

I had to hear from Alfred about Arthur dating him.

From his journal.

[Do you see this giant ink splotch on the page Victoria? That's Greg knocking over his ink pot.]

sry ink spillt 1 min

[The hasty scribble written, he sets to cleaning up the mess, but it's mostly to give him something to do while his brain tries to process the news he's just heard. Ten minutes, one trip to the bathroom to get rid of the black on his fingers, and a few questions to some of his fellow Hufflepuffs later, he returns back to the journal.]

That's news to me too then.

[And honestly? It stings like heck that Arthur didn't tell him either. But he can deal with his feelings later.]

I'm sure he wanted to tell you Victoria, but you know how Alfred's like. Bloody Yank is always running his mouth without thinking. He probably wrote it in the journal five minutes after

[There's a pause here, and it is with difficulty that Greg writes the remaining words.]

they decided it. Really, he wouldn't have forgotten you.

Gregory? What?

[Waits for him to come back.]

Well, Arthur did talk to me just before about it. You're right, Alfred did just get carried away.

I just can't help but still be worried.

That's good to hear. That he clarified things with you. I'm glad.

[Yet why hasn't he heard it from Arthur yet?]

What are you worried about?

That Alfred will end up taking up all his time. Arthur's the only friend I have outside of school...

Arthur would never not make time for you. I don't think he's ever let anything get in the way of spending time with you, and even if he does I bet he'll find some thing to make up for it.

[If anything, it's Greg who's got the bigger chance of losing Arthur now. They're friends, good ones at that, but that's what he once thought of between him and John, and look what happened when John stopped sharing with him? They barely talk anymore.]

Gregory, where are you?

Library. Do you want me to meet you?
