Sunday, September 17th - HANNAH'S RETURN (late morning?) derek_bly September 20 2007, 05:30:27 UTC

Okay, Derek's weekend? Could not be better. He hadn't actually done much moving yesterday after Hannah had come back to school! They'd spent most of the rest of the day clinging or holding hands or cuddled up on the couch... Three months was a long time not to see your girlfriend. Finally something seemed to be going right for him. Well, Quidditch had been good yesterday but Hannah coming back pretty well knocked that out of the running. (And later it would occur to him to talk her into playing again this year which would be brilliant as well. Hardly in his realm of thought at the moment though.)

All of this, of course, explained why he'd completely forgotten about getting up early to spy on Gryffindor. Or Hufflepuff? Whichever was trying out this morning. Yep, Derek's mind was firmly elsewhere (and very, very content).

Hannah was curled up with Derek on one of the couches in the Common room. She was perfectly content at that very moment. Her fingers were intertwined with his, and she was busy examining their hands. "Yep," she said as she compared the two. "You definitely have the hands of a beater."

Were he not perfectly comfortable, had they not been apart for so long that just sitting with Hannah was enough to make his day (though it did generally do that anyway) Derek's mind would have been quicker to take that the wrong direction. Okay, maybe it was more of a reason to think that way but Derek's brain was happily CLEAN right now, thanks. Helped that he'd spent the last two weeks mentally immersed in Quidditch.

"You think?" he asked, smirking. "And wait, is that good or bad?" Probably it depended on how she meant it. Derek tried to ignore belated and half felt urge toward embarrassment and smiled. "Captain too," he added after a moment, as though it would make a difference. He'd told her before of course- by owl- and honestly he wasn't sure if Hannah cared. She'd admitted to pretending to like Quidditch more than she did for his sake so maybe it didn't matter. Still, it seemed like a decent thing to be able to point out to your girlfriend. And it distracted from the other.

"Well, considering that you're a beater, it's a good thing." Hannah replied in a matter-of-fact tone. She was happy that he was happy, really. Plus, Quidditch was fun, and she'd always been a fan, sort of. After Gabe had gone and disappeared on her, her interest had waned. But now, with Derek as Captain, just as Gabe had been, it was picking up again.

"Yep, you're captain. Gabe was captain when he was in school, you know. It seems that I'm always around captains, I suppose."

Having something in common with Gabe wasn't a cause for celebration if you asked Derek, but he let himself glaze over that bit and smiled. Who knew, maybe it would help the bloke's opinion of him ( ... )
