Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps [Becky]

[Gage Mason]

Break time.

Gage had been working his ass off for Vera because it seemed like all the dirty work--all the actual work--yeah that fell to him now. Finally, he'd decided it was time for his break. Since she worked him even while classes were out.

Although he couldn't say he actually minded.

But it was about time that he got the fcuk out of that damn classroom and moved a bit. So he'd headed out and up. The dungeons were really fcuking dark so by the time he got to the balcony, he was squinting at the brightness of it all.

It was empty--so that was kind of gay. He'd actually been hoping for some sort of interaction right now. As it were, he didn't get much of it anymore. Which was retarded. Gage was one of those people who counted on interaction. Mostly interaction with girls--but fights and the occasional conversation were nice too.

He decided then that he was getting out more. He'd tell Vera he needed to take a shit or something and just fcuking leave for a bit.

With a bit of a slumping noise, he dropped onto the window sill and pulled his cigarettes out of his pocket, lighting one and dropping them onto the sill too. Another thing he didn't get to do often enough--smoke a damn cigarette. Dude, this entire internship idea? It was a bad one.

There were a few pluses though--he couldn't deny that. Right now though--he wasn't sure what they were anymore.

[Becky James]

Becky was on the edge lately, anyone who even spoke to loudly or all of a sudden nearly got cursed. It was only because of sheer luck she hadn't killed someone yet. She had been very annoyed with some first years in the common room, lucky her curse was sent into the fire place due to someone knocking her arm.

She was dangerous to be around and she knew it. Something inside her had been destroyed. Her innocence left her when she killed Roberto. Never getting to tell anyone about it, her head wanted to exploded, leading her to be paranoid and jumpy. The fact she had had any nicotine in ages were adding to her altered state.

So she was now out of a job, and had no money, life was getting even more unbearable. She needed to escape. walking out of her class she let her feet lead her before she knew it she was stood next to the balcony.

There was somebody in view, but she barely noticed her eyes were on the packet of cigarettes, she was gagging for one. Slowly walking up she slipped the packet from the sill.

[Gage Mason]

Gage looked up with interest when he heard someone else walk into the room. Becky James. A face he hadn't actually seen in awhile. She didn't seem to notice him however. Her eyes were elsewhere and he couldn't figure out exactly where that was until she walked toward him, her hand nimbly grasping at his pack of cigarettes. She hadn't said a word to him, hadn't even acknowledged him.

A little put off, he reached for her hand, stopping her for a second. "All you had to do was ask Beck," he muttered. Which he didn't understand. It wasn't like this was the damned library. Why he was being quiet, he didn't really know.

Becky was always one of his favorite people. She scared him sometimes--but that didn't stop him. Hell Vera scared him and he was working for her.

He let her hand go and smirked. "Now come on love--I usually get a warmer hello than that from you."

[Becky James]

She jumped as his hand reached her, almost at that second her wand was in her other hand pointing at him, she still hadn't looked up to see who she was so close too. She knew that hand, the feel of his skin. Her eyes snapped up to met his, "Gage..." She almost whispered, it had been so long see she had last seen him.

Becky dropped the cigarettes, pushing her wand into the top of her boot. "Sorry" She whispered sheepishly, well how was she meant to behave? She just nearly killed someone she cared about, cared a lot about. "Babe...I need one...please" Becky rarely said please, it was almost painful as it left her lips.

She grinned slightly, his smirk had brought her back round. Becky stood on her tip toes and pressed a small kiss to his lips, not caring if he had a hidden girlfriend. "I have forgot how the rest goes, it has been so long" She teased softly.

[Gage Mason]

The soft, quiet recognition her voice held made Gage a little uneasy. Not to mention the wand that was pointed at him. That could've had something to do with it. She seemed to realize that though, and stowed her wand away almost as soon as it was on him. Which he was thankful for since he didn't carry his on him. Right now it was currently sitting on Vera's desk--which was where he usually left it now a days.

He couldn't help the look of surprise at the seemingly pleading tone to her voice. Since when did Becky James ever plead for anything. She took what she wanted--regardless of whether the other person wanted to give it up.

"It's fine Beck--hell take the whole damn pack if you need 'em that bad. I've got more." His smirk widened a bit when she grinned--finally. He actually smiled a bit when she stood up on her tip toes, moving to kiss him. God he missed being in school.

"Forgot how the rest goes? See--I'd refresh your memory but things like that shouldn't be said in the presence of a female," he winked. He grabbed for her hips and pulled her closer to him, settling her inbetween his knees. He flicked some ashes on the floor of the balcony and took another hit off of his cigarette, blowing the smoke out above her head.

"I think you can guess how I'm picturing this whole 'hello' thing," he grinned. If she couldn't--she was a damn liar. Of course, she might just want him to say it--and really he'd have to figure that one out because he really didn't know what kind of words you used to say I think you should fcuk me when you say hello.

See the dilema?

[Becky James]

Becky noticed him seeming a touch unease, she wasn't surprised, she had nearly killed him for touching her. She was close to saying sorry for the wand thing, but was she really sorry? I mean of course she would have been if she had hurt him, this was her Gage after all but really she wasn't show about being jumpy. Although she was slightly ashamed, Becky was in noway someone that easily scared.

Once again the look for ashame filled her dark eyes. She had almost begged him for some nicotine. The send he said it was fine, she struggled with the packet, pulling out a cigarette which the second she placed to her lips she lit using wandless magic. Taking a long pull, she let out a sigh of relief "No..I...It's fine" She stumbled over her words. She wanted that packet more then anything, but she had all ready made a fool out of herself.

Becky grinned, an air of relaxation now admitting from her body as the nicotine reached her blood. "I think I may need a refresher course" She teased softly. She smirked at his wink, her smile grew as he man handled her, to come closer. "Oh you know how I like it baby" She teased, she she fitted nicely between his knees.

"No" She lied causally "I think you need to show me how you pictured this moment" She took a small pull on her cigarette, seductively averting her eyes for a split second.
