Who: Tracey Davis and Theodore Nott
What: Tracey just loves her sweets!
Where: Slytherin Common Room
When: Late Tuesday Night.
Rating: TBA
Status: Incomplete

Although the fire in the Slytherin Common Room crackled away merrily, the room was empty except for Tracey Davis. She sat curled up on one of the large black leather chairs, her head engrossed in the journal that lay in her lap. Above Tracey, the wind was lashing against the walls of the castle and rain was pouring down. Screwing up her nose; Tracey picked a Fizzing Whizzbee out of the enormous package next to her and popped it into her mouth. What would I ever do without Hogsmeade weekends; she thought fondly. With an extra 20 packets of Fizzing Whizzbees safely hidden in her trunk, she was sure her secret addiction would be sufficiently fed for sometime.

Relishing the sweet flavour, the dark haired 7th year continued reading. Picking up her quill and smirking, she began to write a rather nasty comment to a obnoxious 4th year Hufflepuff; when she heard a noise behind her. Tracey turned her head towards the noise, but all she could see was the ink black dark. Standing up, the journal fell to the floor with a soft thud. Tracey bit her lip and pulled her long dark brown hair to one side and quietly tip-toed the back of the Common Room. The dungeon floor was cold underneath her bare feet, but fuelled by curiosity, she continued towards the sound..

Theodore was quiet all of a sudden, even slightly distant, as he struggled for something to say. Nothing came to mind, however. It was something he couldn't help; the topic of his deceased parents was never a subject of interest for him. Heck, even when they were alive, he never liked talking about them. Times haven't changed. "Arranged marriages are quite prominent in pureblood circles back in our parents' time, I'm sure we're both aware of this." He took his candy in his mouth, reveling at its sweetness for a second, before he took it out and held it in his hand. "I suppose we're... privileged to not be tied and obligated to marry someone we barely know. It doesn't mean that we go through our lived unloved." His eyes trailed from the table before them to Tracey, his eyes unreadable. "I will, however, marry for blood preservation if I am placed in such a situation. It is my obligation, after all..."

"Would you?"

Tracey picked up her packet of Fizzing Whizzbees and shook them around before picking one and popping it into her mouth. She listened to Theodore while savoring the treat. Chewing and swallowing the rest of her lolly, Tracey rubbed the back of her neck.

"Of course I'd marry for blood preservation. I mean, it wouldn't my ideal situation, but I do believe I would." Running her hand through her dark hair, Tracey honestly hoped that such a circumstance would not occur.

Looking at Theodore; Tracey smiled a bit and changed the subject. "How are you going in Astronomy?" She asked brightly. The two students shared a few classes together this year, Astronomy being one of them.

It appears that Tracey and him had more things in common that he had initially assumed. This was a pleasing discovery, Theodore though as he quietly listened to the other's insight of marrying for blood preservation, his candy once again going inside his mouth to his enjoyment. "Of course, it is not ideal. But if it were necessary, we would do it, would we not? Familial obligations should not be taken lightly after all..."

"Astronomy?" Theodore casted an inquiring glance at her direction. "I... I'm doing good. I could use a trade for my partner though. I had the complete misfortune of being paired up with a Hufflepuff. Though I might admit that she is quite knowledgeable of the subject, just being around her makes me feel as if I'm catching some sort of disease or something..." A small smile. "I'm sure she feels the same, for which I am actually pleased."

"And yourself? We take the class together, do we not?"

Tracey laughed. "Yes, I seen your unfortunate pairing the other day in class." Chewing her bottom lip thoughtfully, she continued. "I managed to get myself paired with a Hufflepuff. I have no idea why Professors insist on pairing us with people they KNOW we absolutly hate."

Screwing up her face; Tracey thought of her Astronomy homework which was barely finished. "I'm doing okay. I could use some help though.. But I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out sooner or later."
