🌹 Rose Giving Red and Ready

[Elise Ito]

Red rose for @Audrey Beauchamp

Elise was having trouble tracking down the last few people on her list. She had underestimated the challenge and was quickly growing bored of it. Her earlier excitement had faded considerably. After asking around she was pointed towards the student lounge. She walked in hoping most people would be too busy doing other things than spending time here. But it was as busy as ever as people chatted excitedly. With a heavy sigh Elise raised her hands to her mouth and shouted. "I'm looking for Audrey Beauchamp. If there is an Audrey here please make yourself known!"

Audrey had headed up to the Student Lounge with her roses, since she'd gotten the ones she was expecting to get and didn't exactly feel like studying in the library, or heading quite all the way up to the Ravenclaw dorms for the moment. She figured she could just chill out for a bit, though looked up in surprise when her name was called. It was a girl she vaguely knew to be in Ravenclaw, one of those weirdo second year girls. Not that she even knew any of them at all, but they all seemed kind of weird. Not like her, she was totally cool and not a giant nerd or anything. "Heeeeereeeeee," she called, loudly, and waved her arms above her head. Though, she figured she should actually get up and with a groan, got to her feet and moved closer to the other girl. "You called?"

Thankfully, Elise had been pointed in the right direction and she heard Audrey call out to her. With a sigh of relief she made her way over to her and pulled out a red rose. She checked her basket and double checked it when it didn't have a note with it. "This is for you." she said simply and held out the flower. "No note." she added with a shrug before she could ask about it.

Audrey looked at the rose, which was red, blinking a few times in sheer confusion. Who was sending her a red rose? Did she have a secret admirer? Was it a prank? She scowled, she hoped it wasn't a prank. "Really, no note?" she repeated, clearly confused. "That's so weird, what the heck." She did, however, remember that she was meant to be polite, and turned her head back to the younger girl. "Oh, uh, thanks. Happy Valentine's, and stuff." Her mind was turning the facts over, trying to solve the mystery.

"No note." Elise repeated with a shake of her head. "Note sure what the point is of a red rose without a note is." she added, understanding the other girl's confusion. But that wasn't her mystery to solve. Although she was curious as to why someone would do that. She did spare a moment to look around to see if anyone was watching. She didn't notice anything and considered there was no way for someone to know that she was the one delivering said rose or when or where. So it seemed highly unlikely it was a prank. Or if it was it was a really bad one. She blinked when the other girl wished her a Happy Valentines and she looked back. "You too." she said simply. "And good luck figuring that out." she said before turning to leave.
