It was four-thirteen in the morning and she was sitting on a bed with a boy in the Leaky Cauldron.

Phoebe had no idea what had come over her, agreeing to meet Elphias this late--early, but she did it without a second thought, and that was scary. It could have to do that she was still half-asleep, but with the way she'd jolted up at the sight of his comment in her journal was leading her to believe that it was more. It was stupid and not very feminist to just jump up and rush over to her ex-boyfriend, but. Phoebe could care less about the women's movement at the moment, sorry Ashlyn.

A really bad idea, a super bad idea---but it was Elphias, and she'd always be his friend, and he looked like he needed to see her even if it was just to sit her in silence for hours and that made her chest tighten with things she's never felt before.

"I---do you want, to get--breakfast, or something?" she whispered, not sure why. It felt like a delicate moment, but Phoebe was betting on the fact that she just simply didn't know what to say.
