Over Hot Chocolate

Percy/Audrey

Note: I've borrowed Rayniekinnz's head-canon over Audrey's identity. Please go and check her works out, she's a brilliant writer (and a lovely person!)

Audrey pulled her coat tighter around her, as she walked. She swept her light brown back, fixing her hat to keep her locks in place, so the wind didn't keep pushing it towards her face.

She arrived at the coffee shop.

Audrey was of no use in the mornings without a hot drink, though she was always running too late to make her own. She stopped in line, recognising the man in front of her with red hair and glasses.

The same man she usually ran into on the way to work each morning. Though this morning he looked distracted, frowning at the board.

"The hot-chocolate is really nice," she murmured, blushing when he jumped and turned. A shy smile crossed his lips, and he reached up to adjust the horn-rimmed glasses.

"I've never had one from here," he replied. "I usually get a coffee, but this morning doesn't feel like a normal morning."

"Maybe something good is going to happen today?" Audrey suggested. "You know, sometimes people just get a good or bad feeling about days."

He nodded. "Possibly. I'm Percy. Percy Weasley."

"Audrey Moon," Audrey replied.

"Moon? That sounds... familiar?" Percy frowned as he thought about it.

"Well, I have a little sister, but she's... away at school, so you probably don't -"

"Scotland?" Percy asked.

Audrey went silent before nodding. "Yes actually."

"Lily Moon?"

"That's her," Audrey said, suspiciously.

"I remember her being sorted." He lowered his voice. "Muggleborn?"

"Yup, I'm her sister, unfortunately for you, I'm just a muggle," she said softly, disappointed. Spotting Percy each day had been the highlight of her mornings, but if he was part of the magic world, than she had no hope.

"Really? My father finds Muggle's fascinating. I live in a muggle apartment," he offered. "Why is the fact that you're a muggle, unfortunate for me?"

She opened her mouth, before closing it again. "I don't know," she lied.

He responded by smiling. "Audrey, would you like to go to dinner with me? I know a nice muggle restaurant that a friend recommended. I like spending my time in the muggle world, and if you say yes, I think I'll be spending even more time in it."

She managed to nod.

"I think you were right about today being a different day," he said, looking quite pleased. He took a step forward. "A hot chocolate please, and whatever this lovely lady is having - to go."

"Oh - a hot chocolate please?"

"I notice you walk the same way as me. Maybe we could walk together?" Percy suggested.

"I'd love to," Audrey replied, following Percy as he moved further along to collect their drinks.

"And I'll have to get your number so I can give you a call - unless you don't mind owls?"

"I happen to love owls," Audrey replied. "I have my own to use to contact my sister at school."

"Perfect," Percy replied, holding the door open for her. Audrey had a feeling he wasn't just talking about the owls.
