A familiar blond headed girl entered the three broomsticks. It was the first time Nicole Taylor was here since she graduated from Hogwarts. She never found the time to travel from her manor in London, England just to come to a silly pub.
Luckily, today was a Saturday. She had no work today and neither did she have any plans. Usually, today she'd go to an exclusive nightclub in London, but she was way too tired from Friday's outing.
Memories of her past adventures to this place drowned her mind. The first one was the time she was meeting Adriana with Desiree. Back then, the girl was such a b*tch. And to think, here she was, living in a manor with her.
The second memory that came to mind was when she was here with Marla and Marvin. Her eyes dashed back at the bar, looking for the sexy bartender that she had once hooked up with. Unfortunately, he wasn't there. He was probably off somewhere, starting a family with another girl. Not that she liked him, but Nicole felt a sting of jealousy.
Those memories brought back the memories of Hogwarts. God, how she loved those times. Everything seemed so easy; no job, no responsibilities. Okay, so she had responsibilities in her sixth year, but it wasn't like she actually fulfilled them. Being a prefect was just an excuse for getting away with things. Nicole made her way to a table before she could get caught up in any more memories. It would look stupid if she was standing there.

Alex walked into the Three Broomsticks. He was dressed simply in his old Ravenclaw long sleeved shirt and his tan jeans. He ordered a butterbeer and sat down at a table without looking at who was sitting there.

While in her own thoughts, a boy sat down in front. Once she snapped back to reality, she recognized that he was a Ravenclaw student because of his shirt. Nicole smiled, embarassed that the boy thought she was another student because of her small frame. But, once she studied his face, she recognized that he looked a bit like Alex.
Nicole gasped. It wasn't someone who looked like Alex; it was Alex himself. Another rush of memories flooded through her mind. The most remembered one was when Alex was at the ball with Desiree. She could picture herself at the ball, laughing and gossiping about the couple to Polly. She could also remember the radiant Vera Wang dress she wore.
"Hey, Gorgeous" she greeted him. Her shocked face was now gone, and instead, a sultry smile appeared on it. This was going to be rather run.
[This is before she knows that he's going to work at the ministry]

Alex jumped back to reality at the sound of the gasp. He found himself staring into a slightly familiar face. "Nicole? Is that you?" He asked in apparent shock.

"Obviously, sexy" she said, with an even wider smile. How the hell could he not remember her perfectly? She was the only one who used those little flirty comments at the school. That's what she thought. Apparently, if he didn't remember her clearly, she wasn't the only one. And she hated it.
"Mhm, and how did you end up at my table?" Nicole asked, raising both eyebrows, feeling retarded. Although, she found out she didn't care. Nicole didn't know how to raise one eyebrow like everybody else. That's why she felt envy for those who actually could. "Is this some sort of plan?"

"No... I didn't know you were there, you would be absent minded if you were starting work Monday..." Alex said slightly annoyed, affronted and old beyond his years.

"Huh?" Nicole asked, clueless to what Alex was trying to say. Starting work on Monday? Whatever he was trying to say, Nicole wasn't interested in work right now. It was just so stressing and she wanted some peace this weekend. And with Nicole's personality, peace was rare.

"I'm starting my job at the Ministry Monday, Auror Department." Alex said slightly exasperated.

Auror Department? That meant that he was the new auror they were getting at the office. Nicole tried to hide a sigh; this boy was going to push and criticize her every move. At least, that's what she thought. "So, you're that new auror we're getting?"

Alex shrugged as he took a sip of his drink. "Guess I am, don't worry, I won't annoy you. Much. You were one of the more decent Slytherins. If that's even possible."

"Thanks?" A server came over to her and asked for what she wanted. "Butterbeer," she ordered, just like she did ten years ago. God, she missed this place so much. It just made you relax and have a regular conversation. "So, met anybody who catches your fancy?" Wow, she hadn't talked to him in ages.

Alex glared at Nicole witheringly. "No, not yet."

"You know, I think Desiree suits you" Nicole said with a playful grin. Of course, she was being sarcastic. "I mean, you two looked so cute at the ball, honey" she teased him while running a hand through her golden, short locks.

Alex raised an inquisitive eyebrow. "Never would have worked, she was too obsessed with Aiden, and I sensed some enmity between her and Bri, would have been utter chaos those two going at it against each other."

"You're still thinking about Brianna?" Nicole asked, rather surprised that he remembered her name. "God, give it a rest" Nicole said, the playful smirk gone from her face.
