Calissa sighed when she sat down at a table with a butterbeer. Usually, Hogwarts professors did not go down to Hogsmeade during the week, especially not heads of houses. But somehow, this day had been extremely irritating, pushing her out of the castle as quickly as she could. Now, she let her eyes wander idly through the pub, feeling more relaxed than she had in days. There weren't many people sitting at the tables or bars, but Calissa didn't mind. The pub wasn't very loud, which was exactly what she needed. Her eyes settled on a couple at the table next to her, who were talking animatedly. She thought about what they were discussing, who they were, what they were for each other. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't see the man walking toward her before he spoke.
Jaxson had left Logan at Gabe and James house to spend some time alone and to himself. He loved his son dearly, but every adult needed a night out and while he had no intentions of doing anything special, a butterbeer or two sounded like a decent drink. He wasn't going to go get drunk and leave his kid at someone's house, even if Gabe was Logan's godfather. The two had been friends for a good little while and he trusted the guitarist with his son. He would always end up coming to pick up the little blond haired boy with his bright blue eyes, only to find him laughing as Gabe made funny faces. Sometimes he wondered if his friend was going to just keep the little boy to himself. He figured if the guy ever asked, he'd give him a recommendation to adopt.
Entering Hogsmeade he spotted a woman sitting alone. He first went to the bar and grabbed two butterbeers and then went over to her. He didn't usually approach strangers, but she was so caught up that it was impossible not to. "Mind if I join you," he asked. He raised both glasses with a small smile.

Startled, Calissa turned toward the voice, pushing over her luckily empty bottle of butterbeer, which clattered to the ground noisily. Flustered, she reached down to retrieve the bottle without letting the stranger out of her sight, which made for some awkward groping before the bottle was finally in her hands.
"No, you're welcome to join me." she said, setting the offending bottle on the table. She looked at the man more closely and couldn't help but notice that he was extremely handsome. She was glad that she had decided to come here tonight and hoped she hadn't come across as a total idiot with her runaway butterbeer bottle.
Jaxson gave her an apologetic look when she turned and knocked over the bottle. He went to pick it up for her, but she beat him to it, all the while albeit get attempt was rather amusing. When she got the bottle on the table and told him he could sit, he did just that. "I didn't mean to startle you. My apologies."
He laid the mugs on the table, pushing one towards her. "I'm Jaxson." He extended a hand to her. He didn't often approach random people, so he was feeling a little awkward.

Calissa took the mug. "Thank you. I'm Calissa." she answered. A slightly awkward silence began to stretch. Calissa drank some butterbeer and thought of a topic. She really liked the look of the man sitting beside her, and anyway, it would be nice to have someone to talk to who wasn't a colleague or a student. She liked everyone up at the castle, but she needed to get out every once in a while.
"So, where do you come from? I've been in Hogsmeade quite often, and I've never seen you." she said, curious about who Jaxson was and wanting to get a conversation going.
