Lavender loved playing with her hair. She did anything she could to make it pretty. She loved new clothes, too. Anything that praised her body was good in her book. Jewelry and perfume and a practiced lilt to her voice—it was worth it.

If he looked at her.

Sometimes Lavender felt it was a dumb idea to have allowed Lucius to use her, toss her. Sometimes she felt silly about the idea of them in any capacity past what they were now.

So she would stop being plain, if only he looked at her as she looked at him.
