Honeydukes' Best
A Harry Potter Drabble

For Kait (thenewkait)
Parvati stormed into Honeydukes in a whirl of snowflakes, glowering up at the cheerful tinkling sound the bell above the door made as she slammed into it.
She'd been stood up. And she needed chocolate.
Seething, she headed towards the shelf most familiar to her: Honeydukes' Best- Double chocolate and Caramel treats.
How could she have been stood up? She thought to herself. No one ever stood her up! Guys chased her!
She reached out sharply to take three large bars of Honeydukes' Best, elbowing the person next to her out of the way.
"Ouch. Watch it." The person snapped. Parvati whirled around, eyes blazing, to see Ron Weasley. In her surprise, her anger faded away.. Wasn't he supposed to be on a date with Lavender. Ron blushed under her stare, the tips of his ears turning red. "What?" He mumbled uncomfortably.
"You're supposed to be with Lavender." Parvati said accusingly. Ron turned away immediately, his face falling.
"Yeah... that's not working out." He muttered, glaring as he grabbed his own bar of chocolate.
"Really?" Parvati asked in surprise.
"Yeah well." Ron mumbled. "It was never going to last, was it?"
Parvati blinked slowly, biting her lip. "Well, maybe that's a good thing." She said. Ron raised an eyebrow.
"How?"
"Well if you were with Lavender right now, there would be no one to take me out for a hot chocolate to go with these." Parvati held up her chocolate bars and her lips tilted upwards in a shy smile. Ron's eyes widened in surprise, but slowly, he smiled. And without saying anything, he took Parvati's hand and led her to the Honeydukes counter.
