@Charles Alluring @Henry KnightHaley was surprised at this sudden change of atmosphere, but she let herself go with it and above all she trusted Charles' words. She did not question him and that was something that only few received. Such trust in one person she had in only a few, but Charles was one of those. She didn't know why, but it was just the way it was and she had not been disappointed to date and she was sure she would not be disappointed in the future. So she listened to his words. She didn't look back and she started running, not knowing why she was doing it.
Haley let Charles pull her along behind and grabbed his arm as well. She quickly caught up to his pace and soon she was no longer running after him but level with him, still unaware of why they were running at all. As Charles' grip loosened she looked to him, trying to make out what he was up to but with all the people and surroundings blurred in her view, it was hard to see what the tall blond boy was up to.
Again he called to her to run and she did. She kept running, following his route through the people, trying not to trip. But she soon realised that there were not only two of them running. Someone was chasing them and calling after them, puzzled her head turned back and she recognised the man from one of the stalls selling something in the streets. All the while she kept running and as she looked forward again with a furrowed brow she now noticed the bag in Charles' hand. Haley had to chuckle and shook her head. He didn't do that. She thought to herself, but she wasn't outraged, she found it exciting. The dark side he brought out in her.
They still ran on until Charles suddenly instructed her - in there - she tried to brake as abruptly as possible and follow his demands and stumbled into the narrow alley. Just like Charles, she smashed her back against the wall, opposite Charles. She was completely out of breath and her chest was moving rapidly up and down. There was so little space between them that Haley could feel his breath. Exhausted, she let her head fall against the cold stone wall and closed her eyes for a moment. She just hoped that their chaser would run right past them, but she didn't manage to keep her eyes on the path.
She didn't need to, because Charles' laugh told her that the two of them had gone unnoticed. Still closing her eyes, she began to smile broadly and moved her head forward again. She opened her eyes and looked into Charles' eyes, who was already looking at her with a smile and holding out a bag. Laughing she shook her head, "I can't believe what you did." she continued laughing and accepted the bag. "You're crazy Charles." She said and let her head fall forward. Due to the small space, her head landed right on his chest as she continued to laugh.
"You really are crazy." She repeated and opened the bag. She reached into the bag and pulled out one of the nuts, grinned cheekily at Charles and tried one of the forbidden fruits. "But I like it." She added, reaching for another nut and offering it to Charles.

The darkness of the small alley. Inches away from Haily. Breathing hard, whsipers colliding... mixing... sweat droplets tearing down his temples. Hair pushed back, blonde whisps lightly blowing. Back aginest the cold, cobble wall... head rest back with his eyes pulling away from peeking out to Haley Rose. Inches away.
Holding the bag of roasted sweet nuts between them. A smile. Her words. The situation seemed coming toward him in a rush. The situation stirring. One of the happiest he been during that holiday. Handing her the bag, the words... laughter escaped his lips as he spoke"you know, you can always count on me to have fun.. let off stream..." Their skin brushed. Hands rubbing aginest each other... the friction... when Haley took the bag, dropping his arms to his side. Smiling. Best moment he has been in for a while.
The teen heard the words. Smiling. His chest warm. Nodding. The teen spoke"your just as crazy, miss Haley Rose," Smiling. He peeked out. Watching, others pass. Slipping from the alley way. Holding a hand out to Haley. The sky grew dark.
The teen pulled Haley into a hug if she took his hand. Holding her close. Tight. For moments. Resting his hesd on top of hers. Not wanting to let go.
Stepping back, hands moving to Haley's shoulders. A nod as he rubbed at her shoulders, "I should go, see you again. Soon. Promise." A nod. The blonde rubbed at her shoulders, walking from her... from Haley Rose... the girl he saw as a little sister... as his little sister...
The blonde walked toward the leaky cauldron. Eyes on the wall. The bricks. Going through the bar. Exiting into muggle London. A heel turn, his eyes looked. A car. He needed one... to find a muggle cab to take... to take to his family's manor. The memories of the day still in his mind. Fresh.
