He sighed, putting an appropriate distance between them, still smiling. ”Is there anything you would like to do today? I'm afraid I’ve been mostly nocturnal for so long I forgot what some people usually do during the day.”

"I usally read" she said.

”Me too. I have a very full library you're welcome to use. Do you have a favorite author?” He smiled.

"J.K. Rowling" she said bashfully.

He nodded, picking her up bridal style and walking over to the couch. ”She's a very good author. I have her entire series.”

Betty smiled.

”I’d have to say my favorite is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.” Lysander gently placed her down on the couch. ”Which of the Rowling books would you like me to get for you?”

"The Harry Potter books" she said.

He raised a brow with a playful smirk. ”All of them?”

she nodded.

He chuckled lightly at her expression. He didn't often get to use this just for fun. ”Which house do you think you’d be placed in?”

"Slytherin" she said.

group

He blinked in slight confusion. ”Why do you say that one?” That was the last house he would have placed her in. She was brave and kind…

"Reasons" she said.

group

”Which are…?” He asked gently. ”I can easily see you in any of the other houses but that one is a challenge for me.”

"I'm a rebel at heart" she said.
