🌹 — Starter for @numberxix
Leo was soaked to his skin and shivering in his robes by the time he reached the clock tower courtyard. His broom had been stashed away down at the quidditich pitch, the thought of bring it up with him more than he wanted to consider at the time. He could have used an impervius charm, he thought grimly as he dripped his way through the wide doors. Too late now. He’d had to practise just a little more. Without Minha watching. There were some tricks he had to have up his sleeve at the very least for the game tomorrow. She knew him well enough already to choreograph his moves.
Low and behold, turning the corner to walk up the stairs brought him straight to her. Leo stood there in all his rained upon glory and a mild scowl etched on his face. It softened to a pout when he saw her due to both his sorry state and that fact that he’d been caught. “W-were you waiting for me?” he asked the Slytherin quietly. Leo felt momentarily defeated before a flicker of affection brought him back to life again. Quickly, he fabricated a reason for his outing,“I- I was in the owlery. It started raining...” Leo glanced down at his robes, then towards Minha. With a tiny smirk, he took a few steps towards her until his arm was against her, his teeth chattering, “N-Now I’m a little- a little cold.”
