Vic's had Neville
& Blaise
& Viktor
& Draco
& is back to Neville
(she never could stay away)
I've had Lysander
& Lorcan
& Teddy
& Draco
(because all sisters have hand-me-downs)
But Vic's seeing Blaise again
& I don't get it
Can't she be happy with Neville?
I'm not one to speak
I'm alone
& not searching
…
What pretty pictures
Is he an artist?
Merlin, to do that by hand
& not use his wand…
poor bloke
He can't possibly make a living
Well, I want my portrait
I'll give him some
good business
Nice to meet you, Dean
Oh, you knew Uncle Harry?
What a surprise
Small world, really
A few hours fly by
I'm not interested in
just
the portrait anymore
Dean, do you like coffee?
How about cocoa?
You can't possibly stand this
—it's freezing!
&& it's November
Let me treat you
No, I insist
…
Time elapses
I'm enthralled
Never have I met
such a man
Dean,
do tell me—
Do you have plans tomorrow?

This piece is intriguing. I like the progression, that things just fall into Dominique's lap when she kinda doesn't want them…but she can't resist.
Thanks for reading, and please review!

Thanks as always to Morghen for beta'ing! XD
2017 note: Prolly only AO3 can rly handle the formatting for this 2010 FV, but I always loved making the FV stacked like stones…stepping stones. And Dom can have her artist phase. XD
