“so you’re here without permission too. my my , what a trail of lies you’re leaving miss grindelwald. tell me , what were you hoping to find?” he asked , leaning down further towards her.

“about?” the wizard queried , voice level and tone calm.

his arm didn’t move from the wall , gaze unmoving as he continued to stare down into her eyes.

“and you entered my chambers while i was asleep.” he pointed out.

&&.

&&.

“speak up. and i will not ask you again. what were you doing in my chambers?”

&&.

it was a clear he was having an effect on her ; stood stuttering and unable to form a coherent sentence while pinned against the wall.

and yet he was still none the wiser as to the reason for her presence.

&&.

there was an air of dark satisfaction to his expression as he stared down at her visibly timid , trembling form.

jed didn’t move for several moments , inhaling sharply as his eyebrow twitched in irritation.

“you appear to be lost. can i help find you something , miss grindelwald? perhaps the door?” he suggested , but his look and tone was sharp and biting.

&&.

with her against the wall , his tall physique towering over her much smaller frame , he let one arm lean on the wall above her head as he looked down at her.

&&.

&&.

dark grey eyes narrowed as he finally stood from his chair.
he took slow steps toward the blonde , backing her up against the wall behind , like a predator stalking its prey.

&&.

at her stammering , jed’s suspicion grew stronger.
the witch seemed surprised to see him awake , so it was likely she wasn’t in there looking for him.
it seemed more likely she was in there looking for something , but what?

&&.

&&.

confused as to why the blonde was in his room , he preempted an answer for her.

“has your father asked for me?” he asked , looking at her still a little blearily eyed as he tried to sit up from his chair.

in this scenario , other people would probably think they were still dreaming and go back to sleep , but after traumas during his teenagehood , he was a very light sleeper.

&&.

his face twitched at the contact , jolting awake as his eyes peeled open.

“miss grindelwald? what are you doing in my room?”

&&.

his eyes were closed in slumber , the book he’d been reading splayed open on the desk in front of him.

the male in question was sat propped up in an armchair by the desk in the corner of the room , head leaned to one side.

&&.

&&.

and he needed to sort through his thoughts before he planned what to do next.

removing his clothes as the water ran , once the water was at a suitable temperature , he climbed in and submerged himself in the water.

&&.

once he reached his room , he went into the bathroom to begin running a bath.
it was late , so he knew he should sleep but he was much too wired.

&&.

jed returned to his room after his encounter with vinda and grindelwald. that had been a tense exchange.

he noticed the french witch hadn’t stopped observing him , like he was an insect and she was trying to dissect him.

&&.

&&.

pausing at the edge of the courtyard , out of view , he used the disillusionment charm to eavesdrop on the rest of their conversation without being noticed.

&&.

he asked jed to wait for him as he wanted to discuss something so jed agreed to wait for him in his chambers.

bowing in goodbye , he hurried off in the direction of his bedroom.

&&.

&&.

gellert nodded in acknowledgment , but vinda was studying the briton carefully.

“just the man i was looking for.” gellert added after a moment of jed and vinda staring at each other. britain vs france at its finest.

&&.

&&.

“good evening mr grindelwald sir , madam rosier.” he greeted , bowing his head to each of them in respect.

“apologies i didn’t mean to disturb you i was just on my way to my chambers.”

&&.

&&.

jed knew he had to get close to her as well in order to gain her trust to make sure he gained gellerts full trust.

the pair were talking in low tones and both turned to look as he crossed their path.

&&.

on his way from the library , the male ventured outside for some fresh air to try and clear his head.

he wandered across the courtyard in the garden and stumbled across gellert alone with vinda rosier , his right hand.

&&.

&&.

and this wasn’t hogwarts , there was no madam librarian to rat him out to the headmaster for sneaking around there after hours.

“tomorrow’s another day.” he mumbled to himself as he left , wondering what to do next.

&&.

“dammit.” he cursed , slamming the book shut in frustration.

jed hurriedly looked around for any sign he’d disturbed anyone , but then he remembered he was alone at that time.

&&.

unable to find what he was looking for , the male decided to retire for the evening , exhaling heavily in exasperation. “well , that was a complete waste of time and utterly useless.” he sighed.
