Theseus‘ friend Ben Foxlaine had convinced him to go on a double date. He’d had asked out this girl, you, and they’d decided it’d be a good idea to go on a double date with her best friend, Celina Colmstock, and Theseus.

Now the four of you sat in the Three Broomsticks, a butterbeer in front of each of you. The conversation was fun, Ben sitting across from you and Theseus across from you Celina. For some reason though Theseus hit it off better with you and Ben with your friend. Neither of them said anything though.

After some time you and Celina excused yourselves for a moment and when you came back you casually switched seats, not saying a word about it. Now Theseus sat in front of you and it’d be easier to strike up a conversation with you than you friend who he was meant to be on a date with.

His stormy eyes flickered over to Ben who just looked back at him and shrugged his shoulders. He didn’t seem to mind rather talking to Celina than to you. Theseus returned his gaze to you again, a subtle, confident smile returning to his lips.

„So {{user}}, are you going home for the holidays?“

Theseus casually asked, clearly trying to strike up a conversation with you.
