Scorpius loved his family, but spending a month locked up in the manor with them could sometimes be a bit... much. Especially because Cepheus bored easily and Xavier tended to sneak off to spend time with Marigold and Brutus, leaving Cepheus the options of bugging Scorpius or Rory and Cepheus always chose Scorpius. He was far less likely to get in trouble that way. So Scorpius had left the house as soon as he'd realised Xavier was out, and now he was walking around Diagon Alley, bundled up in his winter coat and scarf, peering into shop windows and killing time. He should have called Victoire or Albus before leaving.
Scorpius reached up to rub his freezing nose with a gloved hand and paused, eyes catching on a head of curly hair inside Fortescue's. Would it be weird to go talk to Caspar? They'd gotten along well until the party had started and they'd lost each other the other night, right? Caspar had kissed him. Scorpius was cold and Fortescue's hot chocolate appealed to him. He pushed the door open and ordered himself the drink at the counter, then hesitated for only a moment more before walking over to Caspar and smiling at him. "Would you mind if I sat with you?"
