A/N: Okay so this is my collection of drabbles from Drabble Tag! over at the NextGen Fanatics forum. All of these are challenges where someone else gives me the prompt and pairing. Please review!
-Prim
Pairing: LucyLysander Prompt: expectations
"Listen, Luce," Lysander Scamander took the girl he had come to love like a sister's hand as they sat in the Hufflepuff common room. "I just don't want to get your hopes up too high."
"Ly, it isn't like that." She tried to smile reassuringly at the boy who looked so much like the Gryffindor they were talking about. They had the same pale blonde hair and silver blue eyes with regal features and long limbs. He shook his head at her.
"I know, it's just that well... you know Lorcan."
"What do you mean?" She sighed and stood up, walking to the window that looked out at the lake. The crescent moon glimmered off the surface of the water. "We both like each other, and you said that Molly said, that Nikki said, that Caoimhe told her that he said he was going to ask me out." Lucy said very quickly.
"I just don't want you to wait around for my brainless brother to ask you out with his all powerful Gryffindor courage. I don't want you to have these expectations of romance when he's not that guy." He hugged her from behind. Lucy leaned back into him, glad that she would always have her best friend around to help her figure out her life but sometimes, she couldn't help but wish that he would just butt out.
