Who knew that working with Theodore Nott could result in something so fantastic? Susan Bones sure didn’t and when she first go the news that Mr. Nott would be her partner and there was no alternative she nearly cried. Working with such a hard headed Slytherin was not her idea of fun. Susan had been dreading their meetings to work on the Astronomy paper each time it was scheduled, she didn’t want to spend her time with Theodore Nott, but then who would? After spending time with him and all the bickering something good actually good actually came of it. Susan and Theodore were the proud owners of a top mark.

It was time to celebrate, and honestly she was more than surprised he had agreed to take part. They were to meet in the Astronomy tower at eight that evening, and knowing that Theodore hated to be kept waiting Susan aimed to be fifteen minutes early, she called it Nott Time. This way she would never have to anger him by keeping him waiting, she had really learnt from all the meetings they took part in.

Susan was carefully climbing the stairs, making sure to keep her footing because she didn’t want to drop the food. In her bag there was some fruit and chocolate dip. She also had some cookies, but the most important thing was in her hand an amazing triple chocolate cake. Susan had not baked it but the house elves had but it smelt amazing and more than anything she wanted to eat it right now but no that had to wait for Theodore.

Into the Astronomy tower she went, placing the cake on the table and pulled the rest of the food from her bag. She pulled out a blanket and put it on the floor and placed all the food on it before sitting down. Now to play the waiting game, but Susan didn’t mind.

Susan’s eyes went a little wide when he said five, she couldn’t even begin to comprehend having the money to open a vineyard, let alone three. Susan had hopes of opening her own business one day, a greenhouse of sorts. Still the fact that Theodore had five vineyards was sort of shocking, but cool. Susan was looking at Theodore a little concerned as he said obliviate, but as he continued on she got the drift he was joking again. “Who knew that you could joke so much,” she said with a warm tone and a smile to show she was not poking fun but enjoying it. Susan took another bite of her cake and placed the plate to the ground and went in for a strawberry to dip in chocolate.

“Well I could send you some sweets just to make sure you are fine and that you don’t have to worry about getting out of your dorm room,” she chuckled. She looked at her glass and picked it up once more taking a good size gulp from it. She was sure that at one point she would get a little tipsy from this because after all she had never had any sort of alcoholic drink. Placing her glass down carefully she smiled at him again, knowing full well he probably thought she smiled too much. Still she couldn’t help but smile because this night was turning out a lot better than she had expected it to be. Theodore was not making the air all tense, which was nice.

As she picked up her plate once more broke of another piece and took a big bite. Letting the chocolate melt on her tongue it was an extremely satisfying feeling. She looked at him carefully and chuckled a little, “So you really like my hair?” Susan didn’t know what to talk about but she was determined to fine something. “So what books do you read?”

"I don't." Theodore said simply, raising his head to look at her but did not say anything more. True enough, Theodore Nott was not a joker- Susan Bones merely caught him in an oddly pleasant mood. It was a good thing by all standards, considering not a lot have witnessed this carefree, inviting side of himself.

The girl's offer, in truth made him feel.. awkward, almost undeserving. He hardly knew her, and he was more than certain Bones knew nothing about him, still the girl was polite enough to offer him sweets for the Holidays. It was awfully kind, quite nice of the girl though inwardly, Theo was feeling rather uncomfortable. He couldn't exactly help it, after not being used to such an open display of warmth after all. Placing his plate on the spot beside him, he then plucked his glass from the floor and took a generous swig. "That's awfully, considerate of you, Bones. Thank you, but I'm sure I'll manage." he said, with a tight-lipped smile.

And her next question struck him, but he was able to recover fairly quickly. "I said it looks nice, Bones." he repeated. "And I read everything. I can't name a single category I limit myself to. Fiction, though is a personal favorite. Why do you ask?"
