Sneaking Around [ANDREW, BRENT]

[Tommy Ellis]

[/i] this year." he said with an excited smile which grew to a huge beam once Andrew said he'd buy him a present, "Really? I only usually get a present from Lucy!"
Tommy couldn't help but wonder whether Brent would get him anything but then he remembered... Brent probably didn't even know when his birthday was in the first place. Maybe he'd be able to drop some 'casual' hints the next time he saw his elder brother?

Tommy followed after Andrew as they walked through Hogsmeade before answering his questions, "Uhhhhh.. she has blonde hair and she's, just, well surprisingly nice. Which is awesome. She helped me get cookies once."[/color][/ul]

Andrew just had to smile. Whatever Tommy had grown up with, Andrew night never really understand. The seemed to have grown up with little to nothing in Andrew's point of view. He bent down and faced Tommy.

"How about this, I'll buy you a pre-birthday gift now and on your birthday, I'll give you your actual birthday gift. Would you like that?" he asked him with a smile. For some reason, Andrew was emotionally attached to the lion cub.

"Must because I can feel that he didn't grow up the way I did... A family and financially well off..." he thought to himself. Andrew snapped out of his thoughts when Tommy began to describe the Blaze person he was talking about.

Blond? Surprisingly nice? A Slytherin girl? He was now sure it wasn't the Blaze Andrew had in mind. Must be some other Blaze. But he knew that there was only one Blaze in his year. He looked at Tommy.

"This Blaze you speak off, is here family name Livington?" Andrew asked. Tommy might not remember since he was a child but it wouldn't hurt Andrew to ask.

Andrew's eyes widen in shock. The "Blaze" Tommy had been speaking of what the same Blaze Andrew knew from his house. But what he didn't understand was why did Tommy say Blaze was nice? The Blaze he knew was truly cold and cruel to everyone, except her fellow housemmates.

To the rest of the snakes, she was just cold to them seeing as she wasn't going to benefit anything from the rest of them. it was like that in Slytherin. Most of them would only befriend someone for the benefits that came along with the deal.

"Tommy, does Blaze act nice and happy when she's with you? Because the Blaze in our house is just cold and cruel to everyone. Her only friend, from what I heard is her own cousin, who is in Ravenclaw." Andrew told him.

"I'm not saying that your lying, alright. I just can't picture the Blaze Livington you know from the Blaze Livington I know and have lived with since first year." he added with a concerned look.

Andrew knew Tommy was right. They had to talk to Blaze. The "Blaze" Andrew knows and the "Blaze" Tommy was speaking of. He smiled and turned to look back at Tommy.

"That sounds like a great idea. "Let's buy the cake now and some other things I need so that we can go back to Hogwarts and I can drop you off at Professor McKinney's office before we head over to the Slytherin Common Room. I'm sure the "Blaze" I know is there." he said with a cheerful tone.

He took Tommy by the hand and they left Zonko's heading for a bakeshop at the end of the other street.

Andrew smiled at Tommy. "Come, little lion cub. The sooner we leave Zonko's, the sooner we can do all our errands and see Blaze." he told him. It was true.

He took his hand and led them both out into the street. They were going to buy a cake, a gift for Tommy, and some other things Andrew was going to need. He was a bit glad to have met the little boy.
