Beautiful Birds

Keegan Michael Callahan (most generally known as 'Mike') was what every teenage girl had in mind when they say the term "heart throb". He had straight, black hair, fathomless black eyes, and extremely fair skin.

He had just graduated from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and was walking down an alley in his hometown of east Dublin when he heard a feminine cry come from behind a nearby dumpster. After walking around it to get a better look, he set eyes on what he thought was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. It was a girl – no, strike that, a woman – with long, strawberry blonde hair and gently tanned skin. She's an angel, a voice in his head said in awe. She's a muggle, another voice, which sounded remarkably like his father, replied.

Pushing the voices aside, Mike spoke.

"Now, what's a beautiful bird like you doing in a place like this?" he questioned, in what he hoped was a sincere tone. The woman looked up, startled, and stared at him with the most beautiful brown eyes (although currently rimmed with red) he had ever seen.

"Excuse me?" she sniffed, caught completely off-guard.

"Mike Callahan," Mike said, disregarding her question altogether.

"Ava Brenner," she replied.

"Well, Ava Brenner, you look like you could use some help."
