What did she just agree on?

“So that means you want to get awkward with me?”

Alice jests with a nervous chuckle. She is supposed to practice flirting with James, who is her best friend and crush. She suspects an impending disaster, but oh well…here goes nothing.

“Fine. I don’t think you’d relent, if I said no, and I got>

“Right. I’m so ready to get awkward with you.”

Alice joked, a soft chuckle left her lips.

When the familiar nickname coined when they were both kids passed his lips, her heart skipped a beat, and a fond smile traced roseate brims.

She was happy to meet with him, even though that meeting happened to be a lesson in matters of dating: precisely, how to win over her crush, who actually >

“Hello, Jamie.” She greeted her friend with a bright smile.

Alice did not hesitate to answer the door when she heard a knock at it, rushing the stairs, fully dressed, knowing the visitor had to be James, and calling out, “I’m answering” to inform her parents.

Once downstairs, she headed towards the door, and paused right before it, taking a deep breath to>

James’ arms still remained locked around her small frame, she was trapped in his embrace, but she did not struggle. Admittedly, she enjoyed the feeling of his arms around her, even though it was wrong. She could not help her romantic feelings for the eldest Potter child, even when they remained >

looked flabbergasted, but she hid her nervousness behind a merry laugh. She had to remain calm. A kiss on the cheek…it’s nothing dramatic or out of the ordinary among friends…

“Happy new year, James. May it be great one for you and your family.” Alice smiled genuinely, cheeks flushed.

Amidst the racket and roaring of the firework, Alice did not notice that James was rushing over to her to congratulate on the new year when the clock chimed midnight.

All at once, she was embraced from behind with force, and a kiss was placed on her cheek by James…JAMES?!

Oh goodness. Alice >

the clock chimed. shouts and voices filled the air.
james ran over, all but jumping on @suavisalice.bsky.social with arms curling around her from behind.

No, no…just forget it. It’s foolish.

(She shakes her head disapprovingly.)

Even if there were someone…I just couldn’t tell him, and I suck at flirting, clearly.

(She must have inherited her awkwardness from her father.)

It’s okay…just don’t do it again, please.
