Where: Three Broomsticks, Hogsmeade
When: Lunchtime - 18th November
Rating: Probably PG
Status: Incomplete

Tig usually ignored her Divination talents because most people she knew found it to be silly and she really didn't like to be laughed at for believing in such things. But when she looked into her teacup on Thursday morning she just knew she couldn't ignore what she saw.

She guessed it would have to be Sophie and Johhny the tea leaves were talking about. Sophie was the Aries Healer with a good heart, where as Johnny was the Taurus Single Dad with a love for sports. It fitted perfectly. Only problem was the two had never met - so that's where Tig came in. She decided she introduce them over lunch and then see if they hit it off from their, simple, right?

The Three Broomsticks was the prefect location for the meeting. It was a friendly atmosphere and even if Sophie and Johnny didn't hit it off they could still all have a nice lunch together. She sat at the table waiting for her friends, foot bouncing slightly because she was never able to keep still for long. Madam Rosemerta had brought her a butterbeer but she refused to order lunch before her friends arrived because that was just rude.

Hearing the bell above the door faintly tinkle above the sound of the other patrons at the pub, Tig looked toward it with a grin. She waved at the person that entered, recognising them immediately and waving them over to her table.

"That's because they are the best." Johnny nodded, continuing with the little joke. Sophie seemed nice and they seemed to be getting along well. Even if nothing happened between them like Tig had planned, at least he might have made another friend.

He shook his head at her question. "No, she lives with her Mum. I play professional Quidditch for Puddlemere, so my life is a bit unstable to be bringing a baby along with me everywhere I go." Johnny didn't sound bothered at all by the arrangement he and Amanda had to raise their little girl. It suited them and allowed them to continue on with their lives too. "Although, I get Mia a lot during the off season and during breaks. Amanda and I get along well, we just weren't suited for each other anymore and didn't think it fair to force a relationship just for Mia. She deserves to grow up in a happy environment and that wouldn't have been the case had her mother and I stayed together."

Johnny had no qualms with sharing his situation with other people because he had no problems with it. He was happy. Amanda was happy. And Mia was happy, which was the main priority in Johnny's eyes. Anyone with negative opinions about it could just sod off as far as he was concerned.

Tig smiled shyly at Sophie, ducking her head a little. "Sorry I left that out." She said, voice shy... well, as shy as Tig got which wasn't shy at all. "Johnny is a great Dad, but some girls don't like the idea of someone with other commitments." Her eyes widened comically then and she covered her mouth, realising that she had just implied that this was a set up for the first time.

"Well we have one thing in common at least," Sophie said with a grin. She was glad her and Johnny were getting along. It was always nice to meet new people, and if it did go somewhere all the better.

"Go Puddlemere," she said with a grin when he announced his team. She remembered Tig telling her that at least. Nodding her head as he finished up she said, "Sounds like it works for everyone involved." Sophie really liked that he had just been so honest an forthcoming, not everyone would be in that type of situation.

Chuckling at Tig Sophie turned her head to her, "Busted," she teased. "Though I think we had both already figured that out." She wasn't going to tell Tig that her and Jonathon had figured it out and been teasing about it.

Johnny chuckled when Sophie let out the little cheer for his team. He shrugged a bit when she said it worked for everyone - knowing that their were others out there that weren't so lucky to have his and Amanda's situation turn out as well as it had. It was working well for them at the moment, but who knew what could happen down the track.

As for the honesty part - Johnny saw no reason to lie. He was always very upfront about things.

Tig lowered the hand from her mouth, her blue eyes becoming apologetic. "I'm sorry. I know neither of you like being set up but the tea leaves this morning said you two should meet and a something could happen between you." She fidgeted in her seat, feeling a bit silly. She knew most people took Divination with a grain of salt - some even thought it a waste of time. But it was one of the only things at Hogwarts that she excelled at, so she liked to keep in touch with it on occasion.

Smiling at his laugh Sophie had to shake her head when Tig went on about the tea leaves.

"It's alright Tigs, we both kinda figured out what you were up too. Your heart was in the right place." She didn't comment on the tea leaves, thinking divination was a bit silly. Sophie wasn't going to hurt Tig's feelings by telling her that though. "I think we're all having fun and that's the important thing right?"
