A/N: For the Character of the Week Competiton (Rolanda Hooch, one drabble must include the character in a romantic relationship) and the 19,000 Prompts Challenge (1/5, prudence)
Rolanda can't help but to smile.
Minerva, prudent Minerva, always so cautious, faithfully following and enforcing the rules sits beside her on the ledge of the Astronomy Tower, seemingly apathetic to the fact that they are both out of bed after curfew.
"What's so funny?" Minerva asks, lips twisting into a grimace.
Rolanda doesn't answer. She removes the elastic from Minerva's hair, letting her dark hair fall freely over her shoulders. She wonders if the older girl realizes how beautiful she looks when she isn't so on edge, so wary and anxious.
"Rolanda?"
Rolanda cuts her off with a kiss. "You should be free more often," she murmers, fingers tangling in the dark strands. "Happy looks good on you."
