Closed: Really, Really Ridiculously Good Looking

[rockinriah]

The break Zacharias sometimes managed to get during certain points in the year had come and gone. His shooting schedule was starting to get ridiculous, on both the wizarding and Muggle fronts, and he was driving himself insane with casting calls. Why he thought that might be a good idea was still beyond him. He'd yet to hear back from anything, but

It was incredibly warm out but there was nothing Marlow would say no to if that meant watching Zacharias at work. She had always been curious, perhaps morbidly so, at what he really did when he was on a shoot. She pictured a lot of sitting around, a lot of seductive, puppy dog looks and maybe the perfectly calculated fake laugh he could do so well, all while tossing a suit jacket over his shoulder or strutting in the middle of a large studio.

And frankly, as she tugged at the hem of her dress, a wide smile spreading across her face as she shielded her eyes from the sun, she wasn't far off.

He was even tossing the suit jacket and everything.

She pressed her lips together, trying incredibly hard not to giggle.

How he had convinced her to come out here, she had no idea but it was a hell of a time as she tried to stay out of everyone's way.

Still, as she caught his eyes, watching as he tried to look as sexy as possible (it was working), she made a slightly mimicked pouty face, eyeing him playfully.

Zacharias was trying his level best not to look at Marlow. Considering he'd somehow - somewhere between third year and a few months ago - conditioned himself to always look at Marlow when she was around, he was have some understandable difficulties.

He felt himself almost mimicking the reaction, the way he normally would with her, when the photographer called out for a position change. Rolling his eyes between one pose and the next, Zacharias made it a conscious effort to point directly at her. It worked for the shoot, which was convenient.

She couldn't take her eyes away from him, the whole thing too incredible. She had always wondered and now she was here and it was far more hilarious than she ever pictured. But still, there was something about the way he moved, the way he could so easily go from one position to the next and always looking so damn handsome.

It was a talent, that was for sure.

Still, as he pointed at her, she stifled another laugh, the whole thing too ridiculous to ignore.

But Merlin, he was cute.

She winked at him playfully.

His lips twitched into a less contained half smile. Someone cleared their throat, and Zacharias wiped the expression.

"Can we go for brooding, Riah?" The photographer was starting to sound vaguely annoyed.

Zacharias managed, for all of thirty seconds, a couple quick shots, to hold the blank expression before the edges of his eyes crinkled when he heard Marlow again.

Stop it, he mouthed toward her.
