《If I Fall // Fantastic Beasts》One

She sat at the back of the train, alone. Making her way to a local coffee shop down in London to meet with someone, they are to decide on where to travel on their next leg of their trip.

It had been five months since Mercy Langton and Newt Scamander were expelled from Hogwarts. Not once did the two ever look back, the only person at Hogwarts that they kept in touch with was Dumbledore. The elderly man was the only one who understood the two outcasts and perhaps believed that they were innocent.

He sat towards the front of the little shop, by a large window with sun lighting up the dark space. His right hand was wrapped around a mug while he focused on a great big coloured map of the world, he hadn't noticed the girl walked in.

"Hello?" She was nervous, even thought they had been together for five straight months the little break they had in between made her nervous. What if he had time to think about everything that's wrong with her? What if he doesn't want her to come anymore? What if he changed his mind about everything?

"Mercy!" A big goofy smile was plastered on the man's face as he stood up and engulfed the woman in a hug

"I missed you" she mumbled wrapping her arms around the man as well

He let out a little laugh and stepped back from the woman, "we've only been apart for less than a month"

She shrugged her shoulders before taking a seat across from him, he placed his brown suitcase on the table and looked over at woman who had been staring at him.

"I rescued some more Bowtruckles while you were away, I was hoping Pickett would bond with them but he still won't leave my side" Newt chuckled as the little green creature poked it's head out from the navy blue coat.

"Why would you ever want to get rid of such an adorable companion?" She chuckled giving a little wave at Pickett

"Not now, we're in a public place" he whispered tapping the creature back into his coat pocket

"Anyways, since we've taken on Europe already I reckon it's time for America!" The goofy smile made its return to the man's face

"Are you sure? You've already done so much, don't you think you need a longer break?"

Newt looked shocked at the words the woman had spoke, she forget about his constant need to make sure everything he loved was okay and how he never really needed sleep.

"No, no I can't do that, creatures are endangered all over the world and I need to find them before someone else does" he whispered hoping no Muggle could hear him

"I understand, I forgot about your inhuman lack of sleep or any rest in that matter!" Mercy chuckled at the man

"I can't help it" he shrugged

"I know, it's just who you are"

They sat at the uncomfortable table for hours planning out where to go, yet the two still couldn't agree on where to travel after Africa.

"Why don't we just go anywhere fate takes us?" She joked

"What a great idea!"

"What? I was kidding, haha! See, I'm funny like that" the woman panicked, she was so used to always following a schedule that she never actually let herself do anything out of the ordinary.

"We should do that, we can travel by boat perhaps and wherever it goes, we go!"

"Are you sure? Is that safe?"

"Yes, I mean, it should be... you need to start living in the moment!" Newt had been way to excited about their trip, Mercy had never seen the man smile as many time as he had these past hours.

"I did that once, remember? It got me expelled"

"Come on Mercy, please? For me?" his eyes glistened with hope

The woman sighed, something terribly wrong could happen and they could both die, someone could drown on the boat ride or one of Newt's creatures could get loose and harm someone?

Maybe Newt was right, she does think to much and perhaps she does need to live in the moment.

"Ok, fine" she huffed

"Remember, not all who wander are lost" the man smiled at her

She shot him a glare, "where did you learn that one from?"

"Not quite sure, just heard it somewhere" he shrugged with the small little smile he still had on his face.
