Trying to picture Cris receiving a howler from his mother made Jasmine laugh. Her laughter faded though as he talked about how his father was disappointed in him and his brother. She could see the hurt in Cris' eyes and that made Jasmine angry. She didn't know his brother, but she couldn't imagine why anyone would be disappointed in Cris. Unless he had an evil/ crazy side that she hadn't seen yet, she just couldn't understand. It made Jasmine sad to see Cris so sad all of a sudden. She reached out and touched his hand. "I don't understand how your father can be disappointed in you. He ought to be very proud that he has you for a son. Does he know how many people wish they could be so lucky?"

Jasmine was glad when the dark moment had passed and the talk turned to Quidditch and the Room of Requirement. What would she want the room to turn into? "I could think of a few possibilities. If I had to choose just one thing, I think it would be a dance studio. Nice wooden floors, a barre and lots of mirrors, yep that would do it for me. I need somewhere to get my indoor exercise when the weather gets nasty. What about you? What would you wish for?"


Cris could see the spark of anger in Jasmine's eyes and wondered what had angered her. It was only when she reached out and touched his hand, said what she did, that he realized she was indignant. Not for herself but for him. He looked down at her hand before slipping his hand into hers and curling his fingers around hers.

"My father had hoped that either Sander or I would take over the family business. But when Sander told him that he'd rather play professional ice hockey and attend Wizarding University to major in magizoology and I showed no interest in taking over either, that's when he told us we had failed him," Cris shrugged.

"I guess I can understand his disappointment. He's worked so hard all his life to make a good life for us and I guess which father wouldn't want their children to take over the business, right?" he turned to look at Jasmine.

"I think he's proud of us in his own way, but he's not want to admit it...at least not yet. Lucky? Are you so sure about that?," Cris winked at her. He found it hard to believe that even though they had only known each other for a couple of weeks. He constantly amazed him, how much trust and confidence she had in him.

Then the dark clouds passed when Jasmine talked about wishing for a dance studio and he smiled. Without having to close his eyes, he could see her dancing, elegantly and beautifully on the dance floor.

"Me? I think a dance studio is a great idea. I mean I dance a little...more of hip hop but I could use the mirrors and open space to continue with my martial arts workouts. I might also wish for a skating rink too, only instead of an ice hockey rink, I'd wish for a speed skating track."

"Hey maybe you could teach me some dance moves. I"m trying to come up with some choreography moves that incorporate dance with mixed martial arts. Would you be able to help me with that? That is if you aren't busy or anything. Wait! that came out all wrong. I didn't mean to imply that you wouldn't have anything else more interesting to do than to hang out with me" Cris quickly corrected himself.

The idea of dancing with her helped cheer him up. He liked being together with Jasmine and he hoped that she did the same too.
