Rita Skeeter x Student Female Reader (Platonic)
Requested by: Rugratsfan101
Could you do a platonic Harry Potter one of Movie!Rita Skeeter and Female Student Reader where the two have lunch together and after finishing lunch, the two talk as Rita smokes a cigarette with a fancy cigarette holder. Rita is supposed to be interviewing the reader but they end up bonding by having a burping contest and Rita makes the reader laugh by burping the alphabet and the two form a cool aunt-niece type relationship?
So this is supposed to be the movie Rita Skeeter, but unfortunately for me I really can't get into her character and I don't really know the difference between the book Rita and the movie Rita so... please forgive me if Rita Skeeter is out of character. She's also going to be a bit more nicer than portrayed so yeah. A bit of angst, fluff, bonding, yup. Okay, let's get into it-

Being a Gryffindor meant that you often saw Harry Potter and his friends, more often than not. Being just 2 years above them, you took it as a little job to help them get used to everything. You were the go to for Gryffindor's with problems and needed help without getting in trouble (unlike Percy who would probably deduct house points for breaking the rules and misbehaving).
That led to bailing out the Weasley twins sometimes when they were in trouble, helping Neville with potions, finding the right books in the library for Hermione, and giving advice to Harry Potter when he asked.
But you had never expected in your 6th year at Hogwarts to be sitting down in Honeydukes with Rita Skeeter.

Originally, you were just enjoying your butterbeer by yourself, caught up in your own thoughts when the woman sat down in the chair in front of you. In her hand was a long, black, fancy cigarette holder, the cigarette placed at the end.
She had her notebook out and ordered lunch for the two of you, despite your confusion and your several attempts to leave. Being straightforward, she went on to interviewing you.
"Lovely scarf you've got there, Gryffindor I presume. Rita Skeeter, from the Daily Prophet."
"Y/n L/n, and yes, I am in Gryffindor."
"Wonderful. That must mean you've seen Harry Potter around. Are you two friends?" A puff of smoke emitted from the cigarette as you discreetly looked around for a no smoking sign before deciding to answer the question.
"I suppose we're friends. I've seen him around the common room and talked to him for a bit-"
"Great, would you say that, from his behavior, he's still troubled by his past? Is the pressure of winning the Triwizard Tournament getting to him? Did he mention how he got his name into the goblet?"
"Um-"
Caught of guard by the multiple questions, you watched as the quill wrote exaggerated words, a distraught expression on the shy Gryffindor's face as she thought about my words. Being kind I placed a hand on her shoulder and gave her a reassuring smile, gently telling her to take her time.
Paying no mind to the words, you watched as she sipped her butterbeer before letting out a burp and a excuse me. Laughing at the difference of personalities from what was written and what was in front of you, you shook your head as she asked you what was funny.
"That was horrible. Here, let me show you a proper burp."
Which led to this moment. Rita Skeeter burping loudly with a Hogwarts student as onlookers glanced with slight disgust, amusement and confusion.............
