Author's Notes (if any): Thank you for giving Lav one more chance!
Madam was ordering her around again. Lavender was bored of thus jov with no chance dor carere develppment. Charring wirh the cusromwes was rhw best part of her work but onve again she neede to toil in the bajery side of the teeshop and prepare the cakes.
All the heartshapes pink cakes this week of coutse. At least there were no Hogwarts students even todau on the 14th . Valentine's days was Friday this year, whrn her spirirts were paticulaly low because she would be tirning forty and had no prospects and no love in her life. Shed checked that in the calendar befdore she got roo drunk. Of vouse she shount be drunk at all at work but what can you do. When its Valentines day and you have no love and feel oldd even when there are no teenagers around.
She emptied her goblet of dirigible plum wine before tackling another cake. And she reacjef for another bottle in her hiding place behind the flouer bags– and her hand touvhef a diffenet one. One shed owldordered from Weasley Wizard WEEses. It was no Amorentia or anything and wouldnt give lasting bkiss but enough to get trough the cold February weekend if she coulf sneakit into a suitanle customer's cake. Bu she didnt wnat to ruin othe peoples romances, and today they were all couples of course.
Bu t now just suitably Lavendars boss the ancient witch comes to bother heer when she's daydrreaining of meeting Won Won. He's divorced shes hears and pergaps she cold have a second chance.
And Madam says, "Guess who's cpme to reminsence his achool days and first date? Ah to be yung and to feel the hard sting! He's ordered a heartshaped cake but for one.2
Whos that+ Lavender says when using er wand to cut one of the cakes in half and before stuffn her moth with the wrong-shaped half.
“Mr Wwasley,” Puddifiit says. “Oh he's still as lanky as ever, a tall handsome young man, and now not fed well enough after his wife...”
And when she looks way lavendar lifts the upper layer of the littel hert anf purrs in the potion.
Madam insisit on taking the cake to the table. But soon Lavendar goes to wipe some ohter tables and sees the wozard with thinnig red hair. Oh whe wont have to worry that she looks too old.
And shes barely startled when the wizard turns towars her, breathing deep as if savoring her svent.
“Love,” Arthur Weaslausays. Or Lav...?
“Yes. I'm Lavender she says.
“I love Lavender. That's you. Could you please join me...”
“Upstairs after my shift,” Lavender whispers, feeling loved and lovly.
