Emmy drummed her fingers lightly on the counter, glancing casually over her shoulder.
The rain was what was keeping her trapped in the Leaky Cauldron. She was prepared this time, she grinned wryly to herself glancing at the stool next to her where she had put her jacket.
This was would keep her nice and dry if she chose to get up and leave.
She wasn't sure why she was still there though.
Chewing absently on her bottom lip, she gives the Cauldron one quick sweep. No other students were still there. Boy, did she feel out of place.
Everyone else must have headed back up to the castle hours ago. She silently wondered how much trouble she would get in this time.
Emmy was positive that trouble always followed her, seeing as she never really went looking for it.
She shivered slightly as the door was opened, letting in the draft and rain.
"Maybe sitting by the door wasn't my best idea." She murmured, slinking further down in her seat.

Alex was walking down Diagon Alley in the pouring rain which was soaking straight through his jacket and soaking his skin, his dark brown hair fell like a mop over his face clinging to it with all it's might , he noticed the Leaky cauldren coming up "I'll go anywhere to get out of this rain right now" He said quietly to himself, he threw open the door and quickly got in closing it sharply behind him, he shook his head drying his hair , a old trick he learnt from his Mother , He noticed a girl by the door, the only person still there "Hey sorry, is it closed?" He asked her smiling lightly.

Startled Emmy glances up, "Where you speaking to me?" She asks, then realizes he must been seeing as she's the only one still there.
"Uhm, no don't think it is, otherwise they would have kicked me out by now," She grins weakly, taking her jacket off the seat next to hers.
She reaches across the counter, grabbing a handful of napkins before holding them out to him.
"Here, think you might want these, your still dripping."

Alex laughed slightly then took the napkins from her "Oh thanks, still raining in case you didn't noticed" He winked at her then wiped his face and hands to get rid of the water dripping from him.

Emmy grined coyly, looking back out at the window. The rain was still coming down hard. "Yes, I think I noticed." She laughs softly. "What were you doing walking around in the rain in the frst place? A normal person would have found shelter at the first sign of a rain drop."

Alex shrugged "Who said I was normal?" He replied with a slight laugh onthe end, hoping the girl had a sense of humour

Emmy laughed softly, even if it was somewhat strained."Touche', would you like to sit?"

Alex smiled still and shrugged "Sure why not?" He replied sitting next to her "So why are you here when it's raining out?" He asked.

Emmy shrugs slightly, pushing her long curls back off her shoulder.
"Well it started off as just sitting here because I was bored and it ended up with me spacing out and forgetting to head back up to the castle," She grins wryly.
"My mother's right after all, I am a big daydreamer,"

Alex laughed slightly pushing his hair out of his face "Well it happens to even the best of us " He smiled at her "How rude of me I didn't even introdcue myself, my name's Alex, Alex Arturus, so what's the name of the lovely lady sitting infront of me?" He asked

"I'd hope not," She laughed softly,"Wouldn't want my kids sitting in a pub in the middle of the night, oh if my mother knew."
Brushing her hair back, Emmy smiles weakly,"I'm Emma, but call me Emmy,"

Alex's smile faded slightly "If only my mother cared" He said quietly then smiled again "Nice to meet you Emmy, your pleasure i'm sure" He laughed a little.

She noticed the faded smile almost instantly. She was pretty good at picking up on little things like that.
"Yeah, I'll bet." She grinned weakly,"So what are you doing around here?"

"Getting out of the rain? Nah, I like going out a night it's a habit of mine one of many" He laughed slightly still smiling

"Ah, yeah that would do," Emmy laughs softly,"Never been a fan of rain."

Alex shook his head "Nah, I love the rain, just not when it's cold " He laughed slightly.

"Cold, rain and I don't mix," Emmy nods,"Ireland isn't like London at all."

Alex shook his head slightly "No your right there they're not at all alike" He smiled, the bartender came over with two small firewhiskeys "Thanks mate" Alex smiled at him and pushed one glass to Emmy "Your alowed right?" He asked.

She grins slightly, absently pushing her hair back again. She should wear her hair up more often, at least that's what her mother told her. Then again, her mother told her a lot of things.
"Fraid not," She says,"Only sixteen," She gently pushes the glass back,"Not much of a drinker anyways, thanks though."

She nods, laughing softly,"That'll do then."
"Guessing your not a student then if your old enough to drink, eh?"

"No i'm not a student anymore, but even then I had a drink or two" He laughed slightly

"Oh, aren't you a rule-breaker," Emmy teases,"What house?"

Alex laughed "No not a rule breaker, just not a rule follower, and I was a hufflepuff" Alex laughed a little more

"Following the rules, ususally means that you drink when your the legal age," She grins wryly,"Ah, a Badger," She nods knowingly,"Don't know too many of them."

"I"m sure," She grinned weakly, taking a sip of her drink.
Her smile drops slightly as he asks her house. Her hand gently grips her jacket, that she had thrown across her lap. "Slytherin," She murmurs softly.

"Cool, I used to hang around with the Slytherins alot, had many girlfriends and mates there, they ain't all bad, well not as much as made out" Alex shrugged and took a sip of his drink.

"Hmm." Emmy murmurs softly, keeping her eyes on her jacket. It wasn't that she wasn't full of house pride...-okay no that was exactly it. She wasn't really proud to be a snake.
