Morgana headed towards the tiny book store. It was one of her favourite places to visit when she wasn't working at Honeydukes. Though, it was in no comparison to Honeydukes itself. Her chocolate eyes scanned everything around her, the snow, the cold and her own breath before her. She smiled, because she couldn't feel any of it. It was as if that day her body was immune to anything that carried cold, becuase there was so much warmth in her heart. Sure she'd probably be spending Christmas alone or with her parents. But it was more exiting than it sounded, the latter option anyway. She ran her gloved fingers through her bronze hair, disheveling it even more than it is now. Her feet carried her swiftly, and when she opened the door, she was actually quite glad to feel the heat on her face, becuase now she could feel how cold she actually had been.
She shook the snow out of her hair, wondering why it was so cold in winter, but it was like it was hot in the summer. It was just the way it was. Morgana took her gloves off, and walked towards the shelves. The unread words on all those pages just screaming for her to come. It was like she was drawn to them by an invisible force, and Morgana didn't even want to resist. Walking further and further intot he book store, she ran her slim fingers across the titles of the books, her dark eyes scanning titles. Once in a while she would stop. Right now, her fingers rested on a book that she thought would be quite interesting. Taking it out, she went past pages with expert hands, and read somee things, but then, with a sigh and a soft thud, she closed the book and put it back on the shelf.

Theodore was walking around the bookcases of Flourish and Blotts he needed some more Charms books for lessons. He already had two books under his arm and was planing to get three more before calling it a day. As he walked around the bookcase he noticed a woman who he couldnt help but watch for a moment Woah.. he thought as his hair turned blond, he realised as he could see it change out of the corner of his eye why blond!? he wondered turning it back into its brown colour.
Walking towards the woman he stood there next to her looking the bookcase up and down for a book. "Hey" he said looking to the woman and looking back at the bookcase, picking up a book and checking the title only to put it back down. He actually managed to find a book about charms even though he had only gone over there to talk to the woman. Picking it up he flicked through it quickly and with a nod tucked it under his arm. "God i love it here" he said meaning to think it but he realise he had said it and tried to just pretend he had meant to, is hair did turn a lighter shade of brown to match the girls though. It was probably going to go white but i managed to stop it in time he thought to himself as he looked at the bookcase again. [/size]

All of Morgana's attention was focused on the books infront of her, so she was a little startled to hear a voice beside her. Her head snapped to the side, her hair falling on her face. But then she smiled. A guy, who looked about twenty with long hair was tanding there, looking like.. well.. a guy, and he had said hello, and she was just standing there a like a moron. 'Hey there stranger.' she smiled, her dimpled evident as well as her perfect teeth. Her hand dropped from the shelve in front of her, and she watched as he picked out a couple of books. He didn't look dangerous, or not right, so she stayed there, and smiled. When she heard his next words, she smiled even wider. 'I have to say I do agree with you.' She said, turning from facing the book shelve to facing him.
She loved this place too, as he had said it, and she was glad to meed someone who agreed with her. 'I'm Morgana.' She smiled, putting her hand in front of her, in a ahnd shake position. She usually greeted people like that, and it may have seen strange, but it was a habit of Mogana's. 'I come here all the time, it's like there's a magnet in here and I'm metal.' She said, looking around her sort of longingly. From when she was back in Hogwarts, she had loved coming here to buy her school books, the smell was inviting as well as the shininess of all the books that were on the shelves. If she didn't work at Honeydukes, Morgana would probably have begged for a job here, but even though she adored books, no one could replace sweets and chocolate. Well, amybe both of them together.

Teddy looked from the bookshelf back at her and was kind of taken back a bit by her smile, it was like perfect and she had cute little dimples, he wasnt exactly looking for a relationship anytime soon be he couldnt help but think shes better looking then any girl ive ever dated and to be fair he could be a little heart throb when he wanted to be either that or a complete klutz who didnt have a chance, there was a big difference but that was him. "Well books help pass the boring..ness" he said smiling back at her as she agreed that she loved it there.
Teddy took her hand and shook it gently "Theodore nice to meet you" he said with a smile, he had worked out that girls found Theodore a much more romantic name then Ted or Teddy as it was the kind of name you would hear in a sloppy love chick flick. He always introduced himself as Theodore to girls who were good looking. "Well i best come here more often" he said with a smile as he found out she was constantly coming here, he only ever came when he could get away from school and he wouldn't stay for long as he would go visit the shrieking shack and stuff in memory of his father. "So what is it you do Morgana?" he asked her curiously as she wasnt a Hogwarts staff and she didnt work here or at least by the way she spoke about the place she didnt. [/size]

Morgana hid a smile. 'Well, I don't find life boring, but I like to escape to another world, where it's different you know?' She said, being all know it all, and feeling a flush come up to her cheeks, she was glad that the flush from when she was outside hadn't faded yet, because then she's have looked like a total fool. She wanted to smack her self. She meets a good looking stranger, and she babbles about stuff that makes her look stupid. Morgana sighed, and looked down, but then he spoke again, and she averted her brown eyes and looked right at him. She didn't miss the little change of hair colour, but she'd found it better not to say anything.
Her smile was small and timid. Morgana, shaking his hand, spoke. 'Theodore.' She tried it on her tongue in a musing tone, 'I like that name, it sounds kind of Romantic, like Romeo.' She grinned, it was true, and Morgana was just one of those people that spoke their mind. She let go off his fengers, and ran her pinting finger across some titles on the shelve. 'Oh yes, the books are very inviting.' She let out a soft chuckle. She knew that Theodore was probably flirting, but hey, she would play along. 'Well, Theodore, I own Honeydukes.' She said, it was her favouriteshop, and she didn't recall seeing him in there, but maybe it was her day off. 'And yourself?' Morgana asked picking out a title that was to do with charms, looking at the front page, and then averting her gaze to Theodore.

Teddy understood what she meant when she said escape to a different world, he hadnt noticed her blush at all. "Yeah, i mean i was reading this book about a month ago about a boy who found a dragon egg and became friends with the dragon.." Ted said then stopped himself as he was probably just going to embarrass himself as it was possibly one of the nerdiest books ever but he had liked it and it had taken him out of reality as he could imagine himself sitting on the back of a dragon flying high over some far away mountains with the wind blowing through his hair.
Theodore smiled when she said his was romantic. See he thought to himself and with a smile said "thank you, Morgana.. i cant help but think of the witch from a muggle story.. but im certain your a lot nice, your deffinetly better looking.. she had green skin" he said with a smile and then she said the books are verry inviting "well yeah i guess there inviting aswell" he said with a smile as he turned to the books again looking the bookcase up and down again. He paused when she said she owned Honeydukes he had sent lots of time in there when he was little. "Wow it been ages scince ive been in there, well now i know the owner i'll be coming by and i expect discounts" he joked he would pay the price everyone else did, plus he needed more chocolate as he was running out and he was planing on using it as a kind of treat to good students. "Me? im the Charms Professor u at Hogwarts" he said with a smile, so he hadnt been in the job long but it was his job now. [/size]

Morgana couldn't help but laugh, that was like the most bizzare story she ever heard. 'Well, urrmm, I don't think I've ever come across that story.' She mused, 'But I'll definitely gonna have to try it.' She smiled, and she would too. Morgana always tried to do something new, eveyrday, and that seemed like the perfect way. A laugh escaped her lips when he said that she reminded him of a witch. Truth be told, she was acquainted with that story. 'Well, I personally think I'd look good with green skin, don't you agree?' She asked. Books had made her voice, ad speech, be all formal. That was one of the facts that she didn't like.
She didn't say anything to the 'inviting aswell' commnet, she didn't need to. She just smiled. 'Well, I don't think I know you well enough for discounts, but if you please I can charge you more?' She asked, in a joking tone. Obviously she wouldn't, nor would she give him discounts. She only met him a couple of seconds ago, but she had to admit that Theodore was quite charming. She raised her brows, 'Professor. Impressive.' She said, and it really was, after all she was only the owner of a sweet shop. 'But if I had the choice I'd stick with Honeydukes, nothing can win over chocolate.' She said light heartedly, and it was the truth.

Ted smiled at her and said "Well i'll lend it you next time i head over to Honeydukes he laughed slightly as she said she would look good with green skin but he thought a bit about it and he figured she probably could look ok with green skin "strangely i think you could pull it off" he told her with a smile, she seemed verry formal nd Ted was trying to be formal aswell but he just wasnt formal so he was obviously acting less formal then she was. I bet she'd be quiet informal when she relaxes he thought to himself.
"How about we just stick to the normal prices?" he sudgested with a laugh he didnt realy want to pay less or more, he had money and he realised the importance of it so he didnt want to dwindle someone out of some money or dwindle himself out of it, even though he was doing alright money wise. Thats mom and dad he thought to himself. "Well thank you" he said with a smile as she said it was impressive that he was a professor, it did sound pretty impressive. "Well obviously chocolates amazing, my father used to carry a bar on him constantly.. " he told her with a smile, well it wasnt constantly but it was most of the time. [/size]

A small smile creeped up to her lips, and she kind of pursed them, looking at the shelf infront of her, and moved to the side a bit, to have a look at all the books a bit further down. 'Well, I guess that would be cool.' She said, 'But you're gonna have to visit so I can return it to you.' She looked at him, a tiny grin on her bronze face. She liked talking that with strangers, ir just seemed so easy going. 'I think I could pull off mostly anything, though I don't think I'd look good as an elf, seeing as I'm quite tall.' She mused, it was as if she was talking to herself, and he looked away feeling like an idiot. Why oh why did she do this to her self?
'Deal.' She said, to sticking to normal prices. Really, the sweets at her shop weren't all that expensive, and she knew the price of money. She had it, but valued it, but she always spent a lot on books. That was one luxury that she always let herself afford. 'I value money, but I never save money on books, I guess I'm just a book worm.' She admitted, wondering if telling people that she was a book worm made them like her less. Becuase she was pretty, people assumed she was an airhead, which so wasn't true.
'Theodore, I don't say things that aren't true.' She said, and it was true. A professor was an impressive career, and she wasn't going to lie and say it wasn't. 'Well, I don't carry it on me constantly, but I have some stashes at home. Treat my self once in a while.' She said. 'So, are there any particular books you are looking for?' she asked, looking at the books under his arm.

Teddy noticed as she smiled, he liked making people smile, anyone he just liked smiles and Morgana had a nice smile. Ted smiled as she said it would be cool and smiled some more as she said he would have to visit again to collect the book "Well im liking this book borrowing idea more and more" he told her with a smile. "Oh i think you could pull of an elf" he said with a smile thinking of those muggle women who at Christmas if they worked at stores would dress up as an elf, or she could be one like the kind from the book lord of the rings.
Theodore listend as she said deal and then told him she valued money but never saved any on books "well i have a quiet a lot of books, maybe we should like.. swap them, that way we both save money" he had to admit it was actually a pretty good idea, and when they both had read all of each others books and there own they could both buy books read them then swap then do it over and over.
"I dont beleive you could lie.. i think your face would give it away" he told her with a smile then smiled as she said she kept stashes of chocolate at home to treat herself "well im a big fan of treating myself" he said with a smile, if it wasnt for working out he probably would be pretty fat but seeing as he could have his hair and eyes and nose and pretty much is face anyway he wanted he found he worked out more to try and get the perfect body as he hadnt realy worked out how or even if he could edit his body. "just some charms books for work" he said with a shrug then asked "how about you?" [/size]

Morgana averted her eyes to the floor, a small smile creeping up to her lips. She liked this stranger. 'Me too.' She said, and it was the truth. she was glad to find someone who liked books as much as her, and didn't jusdge her. So, being Morganan Cassidy, she spoke her thoughts aloud. 'I'm glad I found someone who doesn't judge me becuase I like books.' She mused, looking into his eyes, and being serious. Usually people assumed just becuase she was pretty, that she would be an airhead and a slut, but was actually quite intelligent, and she wanted Theodore to see that. She was like that, always trying to prove to people that she is this person, rather than what they assume.
Morgana laughed. 'Well, I don't think I'd look good being short, but I guess there are things from books that are called elves that are normal height. I was just imagining the Santa elves.' She giggled. She cursed herself for speaking so much, she looked like a complete idiot, but they, it was life right? 'I think that's a great Idea, I have quite a collection.' She grinned. It was true, her house was filled with books. Most of her walls were shelves of the books that she had read and still planned to read. Maybe she was a bit obsessed. Just a bit. Morgana had to admit that this stranger had a charming smile, which, in all truth, was quite contagious.
'I can lie if I want to, but I just prefer to tell the truth.' She said, and she did too. She told the truth as much as she could, and it was better to hurt people by truth rather than by lies, becuase that will never work, and end even worse. 'I think that everyone can be believable liars to an extent.' She said. She grabbed a book off of the shelve, and skipped through pages, her eyes scanning words. She raised her eyes from her book, and sent him a smile. 'Oh, just searching for cook books. I'm not very good, so you know, I need to improve.' She said, quite embarrassed that she couldn;t cook.

Teddy smiled when she said she was beginning to enjoy the book borrowing idea. I think im having a Christmas miracle he thought to himself as most good looking girls usualy said about two words then made some excuse to leave, they just didnt talk to strangers, but he figured if you didnt talk to strangers then how did you meet new people. "I dont see why anyone would judge you because you like books, personally i find that the best people are the ones who read" he said with a smile, Hermione was a big reader, his father was and he figured his mother who had been an Arora must have been as she would have to revise for the Arora training and stuff.
"Well Santa's coming soon" he told her with a smile then with a wink he asked "been a good girl?" he couldnt help but laugh slightly at that, he was a big fan of Christmas when he was younger and had believed in Santa aswell he figured Santa must have been the most powerful wizard alive untill he learnt the truth, he still liked to think Santa was real though, he'd leave a cookie and a glass of milk out for him on Christmas eve but usualy get hungry and eat the cookie and then need to wash it down with the milk. "Well feel free to come around my place anytime" he said thinking of how he was going to tell her where she lived. He paused a moment and said "I'll write it down the address on the receipt when i get these books" he said proud that he had overcome his tiny challenge. Crud im gonna have to clean up
"Well i havent lied once this conversation so it must be contagious" he told her with a smile then laughed when she said everyone can be a believable liar "well sometimes when i lie my hair changes colour" he admitted then paused adding "Im a metamorphmagus by the way" he was kind of surprised it hadnt come up already as usualy it was one of the first things to come up. "Well im not that bad at cookie, i grew up with my grandmother so she taught me" he admitted, he was planing on cooking himself the whole shebang this Christmas as he reckoned he could pull it off without burning anything unlike last year but it as ok he only burned vegetables.. which was weird as he didnt know you could burn veg. [/size]

Morgana smiled. 'Well, most people don't expect me to be reading anything other than gissip magazines, when they find out that I'm not an airhead, and they can't use me, they avoid me.' She smirked, remembering the last guy in her life, who had done just that. She didn't particularly care now, but it still hurt her thast people to to her that way. She let out a soft sigh, and shifted her gaze, looking at the books, not letting her face or anything show how much these things actually bothered her. She always tried to shut down all of her cold emotions, but they usually found a way to come back to her.
Morgana loved Christmas, and the stereotypical image of it, even though it didn't usually go according to plan. Morgana let out a soft laugh, and spoke. 'Well, I have and I haven't.' She smirked, 'It does good to be a bad girl sometimes.' She said, and it was true. She may seem sweet, but there definitely was a wild side to her, and it depended if it was good or bad in whatever way you chose to look at it, so she just let other people jusdge because Morgana herself was just like that, she always saw everything from two sides. 'And you, Theodore? Have you been a good boy this year?' She asked, with an expectant expression on her face, but she didn't really know what he will say, and she'd rather wait to hear it, than assume, that nevr went down well.
'I'm not sure I should go to a stranger's house so soon after we've met.' She said teasingly, truth be told, she didn't mind, and if this guy had other ideas in mind, well she could take care of herself, but he just seemed like a genuinely nice guy, so she wasn't worried at all. When he told her that her was a metamorphmagus, Morgana smiled. She knew all about those, but it still seemed strange to meet an actual person with that ability. 'I've noticed, but I think that people usually would ask you too many question's about it, I felt that you would tell me when you gelt the need.' She said truthfully. She sighed, always the thoughtful caring Morgana, but maybe it was a good thing.
Morgana laughed out loud. 'Well, I'm supposed to be cooking for Christmas this year, and I've never done anything not burnt.' She mused, remembering all those burnt cookies, and cakes, and turkeys. 'They usually don't taste very nice either, so I thought I'd seek help from my best friend here.' She said, raising the book, as if it was her best friend. 'I've never really had any proper cooking lessons.' She admitted, not that it was embarrassing, it was merely a fact.

Theodore smiled and shook his head slightly "No airheads dont do anything for me" he said he once tried having a conversation with a girl who was.. well not that intelligent, they ended up talking about ponies as that seemed to be the only thing she knew stuff about. Never again will i put up with that kind of thing he thought to himself, he only hoped he didnt have students like that or he was going to get verry frustrated.
Ted smirked when she said she had and she hadnt, he grinned hen she said it was good to be a bad girl sometimes "that i agree with" he said with a laugh then she asked him if he had been a good boy "Well im a verry good boy" he said giving her a wink. He to be honest had to admit he had been pretty good, well he hadnt done much naughty in a long time, his life had gotten boring well he figured that was going to change as he was at Hogwarts now and he was ..kind of.. chatting up strangers in bookshops.
"I stopped being a stranger the second you learnt my name" he told her with a smirk then added "Plus you dont have to come around, but i'll still give you my address, incase" Ted smiled, incase what? was the real question and he didnt realy know, incase she wanted to talk, incase she wanted a book.. something along those lines. "Oh well thanks, i do get drowned in questions" he said with a smile "Your verry considerate" he added not realy sure why he had said it, he was just speaking his mind.
"I am cooking for Christmas and i think im going to be able to pull it off this year ok, well i might use a tiny touch of magic to help" he said with a smile, it was a challenge and he loved challenges. "Well cooking books are pretty helpful" Ted admitted but he kind of liked to 'freestyle' and he would add spices and stuff just by tasting hat he was cooking a lot. "well who needs lessons when everything's written don for you in these brilliant books" he said with a smile. [/size]

Somehoe Morgana was not surprised by the words that Theodore spoke. He seemed like an intelligent guy who looked for intelligent conversation, so she couldn't imaging Theodore speaking to an airhead, she just couldn't imagine it. 'I can't say I'm disappointed by that revelation.' She smiled, a cute little grin, that was somewhat contagious to other folk. Also, she guessed if he were looking for a complete bimbo to have a conversation with, he would definitely not come to a book store to do so. What Morgana had gathered from this man, that he was charming, and nice, and liked intelligent conversation. But hey, she could be completely off the point here, but aussumptions usually weren't avoided in her case.
Morgana raised her perfect eyebrows in mock shock. 'Really? Isn't being a bad girl.. well.. bad?' She asked, cursing herself for not thinking of a better word, but hey, whatever. Morgana rolled her eyes with a small grin on her face. 'How boring.' She said, but then looked at him with a serious expression. Then cracked a small grin. 'Only joking, I've had enough of bad boys lo last me a while.' She said with a small sigh, remembering her lat boyfriend, who seemed to be so amazing, and dangerous and mysterious, who turned out to be a player and a complete arsehole. She really wanted none of that.
Morgana laughed out loud. 'Well, I guess that was clever.' She smiled, which it kind of was. 'Sounds good to me. Just incase.' She smiled, and she just realised how easy flowing this conversation really was. It was like she couldn't stop smiling, and she was actually having fun flirting and just being herself, in a place that she loved. 'Well, I do try to be, because if I was a metamorphmagus, I would hate being bombarded by questions, so I figured you get enough of them as it is.' She said, looking into his eyes, her gaze intense, and everything about her said that she just meant every word she just said.
Another assumtion was that he liked to use magic. Sure he was a charm professor, but she figured that a person could do a bit of cooking without it. 'Personally, I find that kind cheating.' She said and looked down at the cook book in her hands. 'I'm a really hands on person, so I'm devastated when it all goes wrong, but in the end it's kind of worth it, having done it without help. Muggles do it all the time.' She said all that sweetly, nothing accusing, just fact for her personally. Morgana let a soft laugh escape. 'I guess I agree with you, in my case it's better to use cook books, at least it will taste like something other than poo.' She said, and she guessed it looked kind of weird having sush a word escape her mouth.
