Mate

"I don't want to think about it," said Malachi, but he was already thinking about it. His Head of House would have been very disappointed in him. And if a letter got sent home to his parents... well, detention would be the least of his worries. Yet the idea simultaneously thrilled him. If only...

Malachi wondered whether Mary Lou was being sarcastic again. She was very strange - but in a pleasant, warm kind of way. He nibbled on his cookie, keeping one ear open for the sound of the librarian's approaching footfall. "Oh," he said. He'd never noticed shop-bought cookies tasting...

Action xD

Malachi nodded, completely understanding. It was nice to know he wasn't the only person struggling. Sometimes he felt as if language was his largest barrier, but if Mary Lou found classes hard, too, perhaps it wasn't his fault after all. "Yes, that is a good idea," he said, excited by the...

Mistletoe (I don't know what the relation is there but it was the first thing I thought okay)

There was no place Malachi would rather have been that day than sitting on the great lawn next to Emmy. The sun was shining, the air was fragrant with freshly cut grass, and the only cloud in the sky was shaped a bit like a unicorn ("You have to turn your head to see it..."). Malachi had taken...

Malachi smiled back at Mary Lou, relieved he hadn't upset her. He knew she'd been having a rough time recently, and the last thing he wanted to do was become another one of her problems. He sat down immediately at her invitation and put his book on the table. "OK. I need to study Potions, too...

Malachi wasn't entirely sure what Mary Lou meant, but he could gather he'd startled her. "Sorry," he said, taking a small step back. "I have quiet shoes." Or at least, he walked quietly in them. His mother hated it so much that he had to make a conscious effort to stomp around her as not to make...

There was something Malachi had been meaning to do for a while. He kept telling himself that the reason he hadn't done it yet was because the right opportunity hadn't presented itself, but that was an excuse. He was scared. His mother had told him to make friends, yes, but he didn't suppose...

"You're welcome," Malachi said, smiling. But guilt nagged at him. What if he'd dropped the note somewhere, and the message on it was important? "Do you know who sent this to you?" he asked.

Malachi nodded and checked the name on the rose one last time before he held it out for Thomas to take.

Delivering roses at breakfast had been a good idea on Malachi's part. He hadn't been able to find everyone in the great hall, but he'd certainly ticked a few deliveries off his list and was about to complete another. He knew Beau from lessons, although forgetting which house he was in he had to...

Malachi was not looking forward to delivering his next rose. He'd been hoping to leave it until last, but since he was already in the great hall and had just spotted Luxen at the Slytherin table, he figured he might as well get it over with. What did he have to be scared of, anyway? He wasn't in...

Malachi stopped in his tracks. "OK," he said, not sure what else to add. If he were being honest, he'd barely understood a word of what Elio had said. He understood the girl beside him, though, and nodded at her comment. "Yes! I have a red rose for Elio Zephyr," he said, producing it and holding...

Malachi's heart lifted for a fraction of a second before dropping at the sight of Lina' expression. He shrank a little - then remembered what his mother had told him, and stood up straighter. "Oh, I have a rose for you. Sorry," he added, out of habit. Before he could say anything else stupid, he...

Malachi waited patiently, hoping Thomas was going to be in. At last a boy appeared and spoke to Malachi. "I... I think so," said the Hufflepuff. "Are you Thomas?"

:( :( Feel better soon Jess!!! :hugs:

@Lina Olaf, yellow Malachi never wanted to deliver roses again. Ever. Well, it wasn't that bad - the smiles on the faces of the recipients certainly made it worthwhile. But his legs ached and he'd got lost twice and he still had four more people to find. He peered into various rooms along the...
