Lower Mimosa Hill, Manchester. 09:10 PM

Severus gets up from the floor, smiling guiltily at Tia. He doesn’t want to leave her alone, yet he feels as if it’s getting late and his girlfriend, Clarissa would start questioning his whereabouts soon. 

“I should go.” 

Tia nods. “I understand. She must be waiting for you.”

“Yes.” He grabs his leather jacket from the floor and the faint smell of cigarettes, wormwood and truck fuel alerts her senses. 

An awkward silence falls amongst them. 

“Are you alright Tia? You’ve been pretty bold today.” Severus’s brown eyes stare intently into her own and blood flourishes to her cheeks, colouring them. A fresh, rosy hue painted across her cherubic face. 

She refuses to look down from the wooden floor, in fear that she may meet his strong gaze yet again.

“I-I want you to be happy. That’s why I said that you should go for the modelling job.”

“Ah, I see. Well, I’ll consider it, but my dad’s not going to like it.”

“Why?” She asks and Severus can’t help but to internally melt at the innocent, curiosity of Tia’s glance. 

“Because he’s set in his old, working class ways, thinks that modelling is too girly for lads like me.” 

“Well, your dad doesn’t know your potential. Don’t listen to him, you should really consider it, Severus. I’ll even be your agent, ha-ha.”

“You would seriously do that?”

“Yep.” She smiles cutely and to this, Severus snickers, his lips pulling up into an irresistible half grin, causing Tia to fluster further.

Once Severus left, Tia collapsed to her bed, staring up at the ceiling and wondering how she had managed to fall for her childhood friend and her coworker’s boyfriend.

I hate my life....
