The Queen and Her King

Acquaintances

The next day Harry got up bright and early, mainly because he was used to doing so to go on his pay route for Uma. He quietly got dressed as to not wake anyone up, not because he was trying to be nice but so he didn't have to deal with them yet. He quietly walked out of the dorm and looked both ways, no one was awake yet. It was 6 in the morning and school started at 8 so no one should really need to be up yet. 

He looked down the corridor and had an idea. He walked down and turned to the right to be faced with the two sets of double doors, right across from each other. He took a second and recollected himself before nodding to himself as he remembered which door he wanted to knock on. He walked up to the doors on the left side of the hallway, faint music being heard from the room. He hooked his hook onto his belt loop and softly knocked on the door.

BRIELLE POV

Getting a call first thing in the morning explaining how the museum was broken into and someone tried to get Fairy Godmothers' wand is definitely a somewhat terrifying thing isn't it? 

Turns out the door had been unlocked somehow and the guard had fallen asleep when the culprit or culprits snuck in and foolishly hit the forcefield around the wand which triggered the alarm system. The good news is nothing was stolen, but it still stressed me out some. Apparently the system was also shut off by someone who wasn't the guard, so that's also mildly concerning. The fact that it happened the day the VKs came over is also a coincidence I believe, it could very well be someone attempting to frame the VKs so I don't think it was them, despite the fact that Mal was talking about the wand a lot yesterday. Amidst my minor panic I was in, I heard something.

A knock this early in the morning? Rather peculiar isn't it? I glanced at the door over the brim of my glasses, looking up and away from my pen and paper in which I was using to write into one of my many journals,

"Come in"

I said with only a slightly raised voice. The door slowly opened and there was of all people Harry. I smiled and looked all the way up,

"You're up rather early, come sit"

I said as I motioned to the two chairs that sat in front of my desk. Harry looked all over the office, spacing out so much and so quickly I don't even think he heard me. I made the walls look more like library walls by covering them in bookshelves that reached from the floor to the ceiling with rolling ladders and everything, books adorning it all,

"Wow"

He murmured at the room. I giggled and put my pen down and took my glasses off and folded them as I stood up,

"And yes, I've read all the books you don't need to ask"

I said with a side smile. He slowly walked up to the bookshelves and ran his fingers on the spine of some of the books,

"This is magnificent"

He murmured. I chuckled and held my hands behind my back and walked over to him,

"Reading is my escape from royal pressure, so hey if you ever need a good escape I can let you borrow some if you'd like"

He looked over to me looking a mixture of surprised and a little bit of 'are you serious?' I raised a brow at him and smiled some,

"Ya sure? Ye wouldn't mind?"

"Of course I wouldn't, I don't believe your the type to trash things so I don't think that would be an issue"

"What makes ya so sure?"

I backed up from him a few steps and slowly worked my way up his figure with my eyes,
