Open to all invited!
"I'm glad you could come!"

Meredith waved to one of the many people whom she recognized and took a sip out of the glass she was holding. She looked around, surveying the people who had come--this party had definitely been a good idea, just look at everyone who had shown up! It was almost as good as the parties that those rich Slytherin girls threw, except that none of them were there. Which was alright, she told herself, because they were rude anyway, but how cool would it have been if a party she and Phoebe threw had actually attracted one or two?

There was a big bonfire blazing a few meters away and Meredith went over to place herself down in the sand around it. She leaned back on her hands and stretched her legs out, watching the silhouettes of her feet as she wiggled her toes. It was going to be murder to get all of this sand off of her at the end of the night, but none of that mattered right now. This was awesome and nothing was about to spoil her night.

He grabbed the finger she was using to jab into his chest. Ignoring the few struggling movements the hand made, Derek looked straight down at her.

"Meredith," he said, calmly, soothingly, even, in the manner that Hit Wizards were trained to use when one of their captives was crazy enough that they could be brought down with a little calm, slow talking, "now, be reasonable. I need you to check for me if anybody has crashed this party and is underaged, and I need you to quiet down the party because if people actually realize that I'm a Ministry figure, there could potentially be a panic with the people here, which would be exactly what we're trying to avoid. Can you do this for me?"

She had to admit, Meredith was taken aback by his sudden change of tone and mood. Was he... trying to trick her or something? She wouldn't put it past him, but either way, whatever he was doing was enough to stop her for a moment; long enough to listen to what he was saying. Which... made sense, strangely enough, and she found herself nodding before she knew what she was doing.

"Uh... right," she muttered quietly. "Look, but I---I really don't think anyone has crashed." Besides you. "I know everyone here."

In the back of her mind she knew that if she went to follow his instructions and turned the music down now, though, that he would win. And that she didn't want that. But now he was asking nicely, and that tone of voice was---"Hey, wait! What the hell are you trying to pull on me?" Meredith shook her head, her tone once again suspicious. No, something was weird here. "I know you're not this nice, so drop it."

He looked genuinely taken aback. "Not nice!"

Not nice.

She said he wasn't nice.

That was ridiculous.

That was bollocks, actually, because he was super nice.

He was so nice.

Who was she to call him not nice, look who was talking! She was the she-devil.

She was the one who tried to puncture his wrist with her sharply-shaped nails.

All he did was tackle her.

"I am nice!" Derek insisted, looking slightly disbelieving. No, seriously, he was perfectly nice!

"And I just asked in my very nicest voice if you could turn down the Wireless so I don't make my presence known and, because I am so nice, I am taking you for your word that there is no irresponsible behavior happening."

Of all the nerve.

Not this nice.

Ha!
