Double Rainbows [Inri, OPEN]

[Richard Faolan]

A young man with blond hair and blue eyes stood calmly in front of a teashop by the name of Madame Puddifoots. His short blond hair stood up on end. He wore a pair of beige dress pants and a black collard shirt that buttoned up down the middle. There was no tie anywhere in sight. Upon the pocket of his shirt was the pin that showed he was the Hufflepuff Quidditch Captain. When he had first confronted the young woman that he loved and showed his feelings for her via a kiss and had tried to kill the Auror who was meant to be observing her actions instead of becoming a pain in their sides.

He looked up into the sky and noticed the two rainbows that hung in the cloud-free blue sky. He bought his impatience as he stood there waiting for Inri. He slid an earbud out of his pocket and stuck his earbud in his ear. The song double rainbows began to play through the earpiece.

“Listen
The rain is falling on the roses
The fragrance drifts across the garden
Like the scent of some forgotten melody”

[Inri Tunila]

Inri barely lifted her feet as she walked along the street in Hogsmead, trying get used to the subject of her wearing a dress. It was a simple black one, nothing like she picked out for the various dances at the school in hope that they'd be fun. Though she chose black ballet flats instead of heels for the purpose, being much easier to walk in.

She walked along toward the small tea shop where she knew Richard woulld be waiting. The thought alone made her smile, let alone when she saw him in front of Madame Puddifoot's. A shyness overcame her, but she didn't hesitate to approach him with the best grin she could muster up.

He looked up at the High street of Hogsmeade and smiled as he saw Inri approach. His hand descreatly slid into his pocket and turned off his ipod. There was no doubt that he loved the fourth year Slytherin girl As sweat covered both of his hands. Quickly and rather desperatly he began to rub his hands on the legs of his trousers as Inri approached. As he rubbed his hands on his pants he watched her walk closer and closer and closer. He gave up though when she was within hearing range.

"Wow... You look stunning, Inri! You really do. So, are we going to have a thorn free time today? Or is our thorn lurking around like the rat shereally is?"

The thorn that he was refering to was of course the Auror by the name of Izzy. She had slapped Inri and he had almost killed her for it. Although the world would be much better off. Due to his near murder his prefect powers had been suspended until they could hold a review of his actions with the Head of his House.

"Wow... You look stunning, Inri! You really do. So, are we going to have a thorn free time today? Or is our thorn lurking around like the rat she really is?" Inri's cheeks turned a vibrant shade of scarlet, obviously bold against her snow-white face. That was the first time Inri was ever complimented on appearance, which also made an idiotic smile curl up on her lips.

When she had finally realized he in fact asked her a question, Inri did her best to snap out of it. "Well, I think I gave her the slip, so she shouldn't be around thankfully," she told him gladly. Her legs locked up and she let her long hair cover as much of her face as she could manage as she tipped her head down toward the ground. Everything was a little overwhelming for her. Love wasn't something she felt on a daily basis.

[Richard Faolan]

He strocked Inri's cheek as she blushed, the bright red color standing out as clear as day. He laughed though as she smiled. He knew that she wasn't given a chance to smile or blush very often and to be honest he'd rather be the one that made her blush and smile as he wanted to be there for her all the time.

"Well, I think I gave her the slip, so she shouldn't be around thankfully."

As she bowed her head he wrapped his arms around her. He knew what she was going through as he had gone through a similar thing with his own first love, who had later broken up with him for being a muggleborn. He had given up on love umtil now and planned on cementing their relationship more than his first love's had been before he told Inri that he was a muggleborn. He just hopped that she found out from his own words and not the mouth of someone else.

"Thata girl, I knew you could do it! Ready to go inside?"

[Inri Tunila]

At the feel of Richard's hand on her cheek, her cheeks only grew redder. She was quite a virgin with dating and love, so unfamiliar with how someone could like you so much as to be special in their eyes, and also unfamiliar with how you could feel that strongly for someone in return. Every step and breath she took around Richard was so foreign to her, so strange. It was as if every movement she made was in sync with him.

It was even better when he slipped his arm around her. She felt a spike in confidence at his touch. "Thata girl, I knew you could do it! Ready to go inside?" She stood up straight, pulling her dark hair behind her ears. She nodded to him with a small smile.

[Richard Faolan]

His smile went from ear to ear as ahe blushed even more. It was as if an artist had accidentally spilt redish pink paint upon a white canvas. To the artist it would have been labeled as a disaster but to Richard... to Richard it was beauty especially if that canvas was Inri's face and the paint was the blood that ran to her face. He loved her and he knew it.

A somewhat confidant look appeared on her face after he had wrapped his arms around her. She was smiling now, weither it was a pleased smile that she had a muggleborn wrapped around her little finger or a genuine happy smile though, he had no idea. He slapped himself mentally. Sure, she was a Death Eater, it was well known at school but it was only from family influence he was sure that she'd change though and he'd be her post to lean on every step of the way. 

When she nodded he placed his hands into hers and before walking into the little teashop he placed a kiss on Inri's cheek. He was just trying to show her that he'd be there for her, not flaunting that they were a 'package'. After he had kissed her cheek he led her into the tea shop, hand in hand.

"I have to be honest with you, I was starting to believe that you stood me up."

He kept his eyes away from her's until he had finished speaking and even then he only glanced at her face to see her reaction to his statement. He was only being honest and there defenatly was nothing wrong in telling her what had been running through his head.

"Table for two?"

He jumped at the sound of another woman's voice but his hand remained in Inri's. It took him awhile to actually realise that the woman who had spoken was a waitress who had been waiting to take them to a table.

"Yes please."

He looked around the place as they were lead to the table. As he expected there were plenty of Hogwarts couples here as it was one of the trips into Hogsmeade that they were allowed to do. When he did look at Inri, his face always had an encouraging smile upon it.
