Eve sighed before taking another drink. "I know, but just because you're adult doesn't mean we can't have fun, right?" She hadn't had anyone to talk about these things with and regardless of their snappy banter, she wasn't about to go to Red with something like this. Besides, Evelyn had hardly spoken to Alejandro so far this year and they had always gotten along just fine. The fact that he was easy on the eyes did help out a lot though, if she was being perfectly honest with herself.

The blonde gave her colleague a surprised glance at his comment before letting out a quiet laugh. She wasn't quite sure whether or not he caught how it had sounded, though she assumed he hadn't. "That we shall," she said with amused smile. She couldn't remember the last time she smiled this much, considering how the year had started. Time to enjoy yourself, Ev, she thought, noticing her glass was once again empty. "And I think we should start," she started, filling her glass once more, "by finishing off this bottle. Wouldn't you agree?"

Alejandro listened to Evelyn with interest, happy to see that her sense of humor hadn’t abandoned her. “Si, such a shame,” he agreed jokingly. “Though it really is a shame that our work keeps us so busy.” He watched her sip from her glass, trying not stare as she swallowed. Why must she be so… alluring? He returned her smile and picked up his glass again, taking a drink, but not before noticing the light dusting of pink across Evelyn’s cheeks.

Setting his now-empty glass down, Alejandro shrugged. “I suppose I could use more fun,” he replied, twisting on his stool to face her slightly. A small frown appeared between his eyes. “Is something wrong?” He didn’t want to see her sad; he much preferred her pretty smile. “Ah, I think I can almost recall those times…” he said, half smiling. “What happened? We grew up, bonita.” His smile turned wistful as he reached for the bottle of Firewhiskey to refill his glass. “We will just have to make our own fun now,” he said, not realizing how it might sound.

Not at all. It's completely natural and more importantly fun.

13. Do you like it when people play with your hair?

I do, actually. It's a weakness.

Eve poured herself a drink and laughed. "I do love this place. Taking over the work load for seventh year DADA has unfortunately cut down my time here." She sighed melodramatically. "It's a shame, really," she joked, taking a drink from the glass. It burned her throat slightly She turned her head to him slightly, noticing that his eyes had already been on her. Eve gave him a friendly smile, as she always had, before turning back to her drink and hoping she blushing like some school girl.

"I'm sure you're not boring.  You just need to get out and have some fun!" she answered as her smiel widened. "Not that I'm one to talk. I've been pretty dull. Dreadfully dull, actually," she muttered, rotating the glass on the counter. She hadn't spoken to anyone is such a long time that she was beginning to think she was becoming a hermit. Considering her formerly wild social life, she inwardly cringed at how awful her free time had been lately. "Remember when life was exciting and fun? Whatever happened to that?"

Alejandro smiled at Eve in return, happy to finally be out of the castle. He climbed onto the seat next to her and propped his elbows up on the bar. Looking around the tavern, he was pleased to note that it wasn’t terribly crowded; Alejandro was not one for crowds, and in fact, the emptier, the better. He watched as Eve flagged down the bartender, not minding in the least when she called him by name.

“No, bonita, it’s ok. Do not be embarrassed,” he told her. “If I came here as much as I wanted to, I would probably know the bartenders’ names as well.” He smiled at Eve easily before turning to the Firewhiskey bottle and pouring some into his cup. He studied her for a moment, feeling like they were back in school again. She had never seemed to realize how pretty she was, and he had never had the courage to move beyond friendship. “Oh, I am the same as always,” he replied, tipping his glass back quickly. “Boring,” he added with a wink in her direction. “And you?”

[Owl] I can meet you outside your rooms if you like, and escort you to the Great Hall. I think you deserve to be shown off. -Alejandro

[owl] Oh! Thank you, Alejandro. That would be lovely. 

- Evelyn

[Owl] Wonderful! And si, exactly. We deserve some fun, too, I think. -Alejandro

[owl] Definitely. So, I suppose I'll see you Thursday night then!

- Evelyn

[Owl] Evelyn, I know it is customary for only the students to require dates to these balls, but I was wondering, since we will have to chaperone, if you would consider going as my date. -Alejandro

[owl] I would love to. Besides, why should the kids have all the fun?

- Evelyn

Eve had only just taken her first long drink when the sound of his voice next to her ear made her jump a bit in surprise. As she whirled around on her stool, her lips spread into a wide, friendly smile. It wasn't often at all that she got out of the castle and even less often that she did so with company. She had been feeling so unlike herself lately that this was a welcome change to her dull routine. "Hey! Pull up a seat."

Evelyn waved down the bartender again, flashing another charming smile. "Could we get another glass, Abe?" She turned back to Alejandro with a sheepish look. "I, ah...used to come here a lot." She took another drink from her glass that she had set next to the bottle of firewhiskey before setting it back down. She withheld the grimace at the bitter, burning taste of the alcohol before returning her attention to her colleague. "So how are you?"

Drunken Antics || Evelyn & Alejandro

Alejandro smiled when he received Evelyn’s last response, and got up from his desk to get properly dressed for a night out. He stretched his arms up over his head to work the kinks out of his back and swore to himself once again that he wouldn’t sit hunched over his papers for so many hours at a time. He was very much looking forward to getting out of the castle; it wasn’t something he did very often, but Eve was right. They really needed to relax a bit and get away from the students, if only for one night. Out of habit, he glanced out his open window to see the night sky, though it wasn’t yet fully dark. He was satisfied to see that there were no clouds; it would make for a beautiful stargazing experience since the moon was close to being dark. Turning his attention back to his wardrobe, he quickly pulled on a blue plaid button-up shirt and tan slacks. He tried valiantly to tame his hair, but the curls insisted on springing back up around his head so he gave up. Satisfied with his appearance, Alejandro grabbed his wand and left his room. The students he passed on his way out were more rambunctious than normal, and he figured it was because spring was almost upon them and the weather was slowly but surely warming up. He simply shook his head and kept going.

The trip down to Hogsmeade was uneventful, and the darkening night sky entertained him, especially noting that the constellation of Orion was slowly disappearing behind the horizon a little more each night. In no time at all, he was opening the door to the tavern. He stood just inside and looked around, finally spotting Eve’s blonde head sitting at the bar. He quietly walked up behind her and put his lips close to her ear. “Boo,” he said, smiling when she whirled around in her seat.

Drunken Antics || Evelyn & Alejandro

Evelyn didn't regularly go out drinking the past few months. In fact, she spent more time huddled up in her office than anywhere else and she loathed it. It was awful! It wasn't as if she had gotten many offers at that, so considering a good looking colleague of hers had given her such an invitation she was not about to pass it up. They had since agreed to meet at the tavern and Evelyn wasted no time heading there. Of course, she got held up for a minute or two reprimanding some students that happened to be out past curfew and fighting but things like that never took too long. Strolling along the path to Hogsmeade, she noted silently how much warmer it had been getting outside. The weather was becoming much nicer lately and of course that would mean many more kids sneaking out but it didn't really matter so long as they didn't cause trouble while doing so.

Before she knew it, she had already entered the tavern as the warm, humid air hit her head on. She strode over to the bar with a flirtatious smile to the bartender. It certainly was not her first trip to the location as she accepted the firewhiskey that had been poured for her. She took the glass with a "thank you" as she took a seat at the bar.
