Poppy gave June a big smile, genuine and happy. She was glad Juniper had trusted her and that she didn’t think Poppy silly after all this fuss. Still, it felt almost awkward to go back to discussing Mr. Lestrange now and so Poppy nodded, watching as June took her finished bouquet into her arms. A small laugh escaped her at the sight, and Poppy covered it up with her hand. “Let me just finish this and then perhaps we can find tea?” She offered.

Even though Poppy knew now it hadn’t been Mr. Blackwood that had caused her friend pain, she couldn’t help a small pang as she watched June toddle off. If that man, or any other for that matter, hurt June again - Poppy knew she’d do anything to help her friend come through it unscathed. Even if it meant doing something worse than anything her hellion had ever prompted her to before.
