This is for the 20 drabbles, 20 prompts challenge on the HPFC forum. I decided Kingsley deserved some love. I will try to have him interact with a different character in each drabble. Or maybe not... whatever the prompt inspires. :)
Prompt #1: ice cream
Kingsley walked soundlessly through the narrow hall in Number Twelve Grimmauld Place, careful not to wake Mrs. Black's sleeping portrait. He went into the kitchen in search of Arthur, but instead, he found that the room's only occupant was Molly. Her front was covered in flour and she was talking to herself. Wooden spoons and pots were moving of their own accord as she struggled to remember a particular recipe.
She looked up and saw him and before he could make his excuses she sat him down on a stool and began setting food in front of him. He smiled warmly at her and he knew that he couldn't refuse. She needed to take care of somebody and all her children were at school and from the looks of it she'd been alone all morning with Kreacher mumbling obscenities in the corner.
She put a bowl of ice cream on the table in front of him and chattered away. He didn't like ice cream, but he didn't have the heart to tell her so, and he had to admit that a small part of him liked the feeling of being taken care of.
He ate it anyway.
