Thank WG For House Elves

Third Year Posts : 137

Unfortunately, it was Sunday and for Aurora that meant it was time to do her laundry from the past week. Lucky for her there were house elves who actually did the washing for her. It took a while but at least she didn't have to do the work. The irritating part was gathering the clothes and carrying them to the laundry. Sometimes having the Slytherin Commons in the dungeon was ok. It didn't make her enjoy it because sometimes they had rats and other gross things there but on the upside it was decorated amazingly.

Once Aurora gave her clothes to a house elf, she took a seat on one of the chairs and waited for her laundry to be done. She glanced over to her side and noticed a new issue of the Daily Prophet. Even though she didn't usually read it, she decided to this time. There were issues of the Quibbler and Witch Weekly all over the place but for now the Daily Prophet was holding her attention. (Mostly because it was the closest to her.)

Pierre entered the Laundry, basket of dirty uniforms, suits and clothes balanced on his hips as he was swarmed by little elves. Handing off his clothes with a curt warning to not touch the silk pieces of his wardrobe, he sat down a few seats away from a Slytherin girl and took Vogue out from his pocket, flipping through it as he waited for the elves to finsh.

Aurora had been reading the Daily Prophet for quite sometime and was beginning to get rather bored with it. Since Witch Weekly was her usual choice she decided to read that next. Unfortunately, that required standing up. She sighed and placed the Daily Prophet back down on the table before getting up and getting Witch Weekly.

After grabbing the magazine, she noticed a boy reading Vogue. Even though she was a Pureblood she still knew of that magazine. From what she heard it was a muggle magazine. Her eyebrow immediately raised. Was that a normal thing for a boy to read? She didn't think so. "You do know that's a girl magazine right?" She said to him matter-of-factly.

Pierre didn't bother looking up from an article on the newest horror novel as the Slytherin girl asked him if he knew if his chosen reading material was for girls. "It hasn't occurred to me that a boy can not be interested in fashion." he said, turning a page of the magazine. "And while it is mostly directed towards girls, it occasionally has tings for boys inside." Pierre resisted rolling his eyes, "Is there a problem with me reading it?"

The girl was really the first one to comment on his chosen reading material. Well, he going to be getting a mouthful then.

Aurora wasn't shy and she usually wasn't polite either. It was just how she operated. This boy seemed like he could be nice but there was no way Aurora was going to be all nice-y nice. She looked at him with a raised eyebrow before taking a seat in the chair across from him.

"Never said you couldn't. You could be interested in dressing like a sheep for all I care." Aurora shook her head. "There's nothing wrong with reading it but it isn't exactly in the norm. But hey, who am I to judge? Whatever floats your boat, it doesn't effect my life. By the way, I'm Aurora. In case you were curious." She probably wouldn't like the guy but there was nothing wrong with introductions.

Emily realised she hadn't done the wash in four days, so she gathered up her dirty clothes and made her way down to the laundry. When she got there, she noticed a Hufflepuff boy was also waiting. And with a jolt, she realised that Aurora was there too. Hoping not to be noticed, she asked a nearby house-elf to please get her wash done as soon as possible. She sat down across from the Hufflepuff boy, her leg twitching anxiously.
