What was Molly doing up in the Astronomy, thirty minutes after midnight? She was quietly and patiently waiting for Ethan Frost to show up. No, not her boyfriend Elijah, she was waiting for his brother. See, tonight was the night of the Masquerade Ball. It had been fun, but Molly was too tired to get into the full details of what had happened with her and her assigned dance mate. There she was, speaking to her 'partner' when she felt someone or something touching her hand. Her first instinct was to mover her hand away, turn around and slap whoever was trying to touch her, but she didn't. She looked down at her hand, seeing a piece of paper and someone else's hand pressing on hers. She grabbed the paper and when she looked up to see who it was, not that she could see their face anyway, they were walking away.

She excused herself for a minute, walked a few feet away from her partner and opened the note. Her eyes skimmed through it and she was a little confused. Ethan was asking her to meet him in the Astronomy Tower at twelve-thirty. She wasn't quite sure why he wanted her to meet him there. She didn't really question it either. Molly didn't know Ethan that well. The two of them had worked together in Transfiguration a few weeks before and actually ended up speaking to each other. You think that after two years of dating Elijah, she would know his brother better, but she had never spoken to him for more than a minute and the two actually hit it off in class. It wasn't like they were best friends or anything, but constantly partners in class yes. Ethan was a very smart guy, but Molly figured that he didn't try as hard as he could. It was her mission now to make sure he wasn't slacking.

Maybe he needs help with homework, her mind mused over the thought as she waited. Her white dress was almost glowing in the dark, thanks to the stars shinning down on it. She had been waiting for a couple of minutes and realized that maybe Ethan wasn't going to show up. Her lips let out a sigh, she wasn't disappointed, she just wished she had Layla with her so she could talk to someone. The silence was killing her.

It was a little after twelve-thirty at night and Ethan was making his way up to the Astronomy tower. He had dared to do the impossible tonight, inviting his brother's girlfriend Molly Weasley up here tonight. After all of the mayhem of revealing partners at the masquerade ball had died down, Ethan had made it a mission of his to get a note to Molly requesting her company tonight. There was a great risk in doing what he was doing tonight. Would Molly tell Elijah about this meeting?

Ethan wasn't entirely sure why he had slipped Molly a note tonight but some where in him Ethan had just wanted to see Molly. To see her face and hear her voice. Molly Weasley had been one of the only people to see past his anger and bitter words and actually speak to him. It had been a long time since he had made a connection with another person and he didn't want to let it go just because she was dating his brother.

Elijah and Molly had been dating for a long time, she had even met the family over the summer. But it wasn't until this year that Molly and Ethan had become some version of friends. He wasn't sure what to make of this relationship they had going but all he knew was he felt better when Molly was around him, even before they had started talking to each other directly. Ethan, always on the out skirts, had watched his brother and Molly together. He had watched her dance and laugh with Elijah and it was such a beautiful sight. But it was just for Elijah that she did those things but Ethan wanted her to laugh with him as well, even just as friends. He needed someone to pull him out of the dark clouds he was surrounded by. Molly was that light, she had helped his brother not Ethan needed her.

Ethan pushed open the door to the astronomy tower as a glowing light hit him. Molly's dress was gleaming in the moon light, it was such a breath taking sight that he stood there for a moment and watched her. A sigh caught his attention which had come from Molly. "Think I wouldn't show?" He asked casually as he stuffed his hands into his pockets.
