She stopped at his ankles taking a few seconds to sniff his pants. Perhaps if he smelled of dirt she'd let him live another day. Upon failing to perceive such smell that tortoise snapped twice before pinching a nice portion of the boy's calf. Not as tasty as that Slytherin in Hogsmeade but it'll do for now, thought Rosemary and tightened her grip.

When he pulled on it, the little carnivore refused to let go but only clamped down harder. "Damn you crazy man eating tortoise!"

He picked it up and looked around for the owner, "Whomever it is that owns this little monster better speak up or I'm going to feed it to one of Dainsie's animals!"

"Hey!" She shouted marching up to them. "Animal abuse! What do you think you're doing?"

She nearly fell when Nik thrusted stupid old Rosemary against her chest. Sure, Rosemary was a real pain in the neck but she still was her pet and she wasn't going to let anyone bad mouth the thing unless it was herself.

"She isn't all that bad,' she retorted to the girl. "She's just...she has a personality of her own just like you do."

"Personality…" he scoffed, "Sure, just keep its personality as far away from me as possible, Bucky."

She frowned slightly at Soli, considering the lesser of two evils at the moment and turned to Nikolai.

"You wouldn't dare kidnap her," she said taking a step forward, her bottom lip quivering slightly. "I'll--I'll tell!"

That was the most childish retort the know-it-all thirteen year old had ever come up with but she was furious. So furious and unable to do anything about it that it was frustrating and whenever she got frustrated she cried. Yes, childish she was indeed.

"At least she has personality," she spat. "Something you are definitely lacking."

"Caged?" She barked. "Why don't we just cage all those savage little first years who cause mayhem then? How would you feel if you were caged? It's not very nice, I'll tell you that."

Caged. Ridiculous.

He had already woken up in a bad mood, and then had received that note from the Count, and now he had been bitten by a murderous tortoise and was fighting with the owner, whom he actually liked a lot.

"Hey, hey, HEY!" She whined. "Stop it! Aren't you supposed to be injured? And quit it already with the whole angst. It's exhausting."

He went pale for a second and held out his hands to hold onto Bucky's shoulders. He had never been very good with blood, and it was a silly fear of his that he thought he had overcame. "Is your...do you think the...Rosemary is...is it poisonous?" He asked disjointedly.

When he reached out to balance himself with her shoulder, Celestina wobbled and quickly put her leg down so neither of them would fall.

"Easy there Tipsy," she said relieved that the arguing was over for now and that they hadn't both fallen down. "Don't knock us both over."

Then, she paused. Poisonous. Trying very hard not to laugh, she cleared her throat.

"As poisonous as a tarantula," she replied rolling her eyes. "Of course not but you might get an infection though."

The truth was, he just wasn't sure where the bloody Hospital Wing was in the first place. But he was not about to admit that to Bucky or anybody else.

"Well, then, Sir," she said dully. "Follow me."

Not wanting him to fall or anything, she wrapped her free arm around one of his and nodded at the direction of the Hospital Wing.

"Let's go before you bleed to death or something."
Quote:
Nik smirked as she wrapped his arm in hers, as if she could hold him up. But he decided that he was going to milk this situation for all it was worth.

"You know....If I die...could you tell my father that he's an idiot?" Nik asked her, he wasn't thinking very clearly anymore. Either from the loss of blood, or from the poison that he was sure that monster had injected into his body, or possibly from plain exhaustion.



Finally, at the Hospital Wing...

"You can tell him yourself," she replied to his request. "You're not going to die anytime soon. Plus, if I ever tell your Dad that he'll probably hex me into oblivion."

Quote:
Bucky ran a hand through her now longer auburn hair. It was a bit untidy seeing as she had forgotten to brush it this morning. Raising an eyebrow she stared at Nik, trying to figure out what was going on in his big head.

She would have replied nastily but Rosemary's struggles gave her an idea.

"Sure," she said smiling seductively as she had seen many a girl do it at Hogwarts. "But it's a surprise. You have to close your eyes. You poor thing...you."


Quote:
Nik grew suspicious of the sudden change in Bucky's tone, but he was bought into the smile she gave him. Looking into her eyes, he swallowed and nodded, "Okay, sure....anything to make the pain go away..."

He closed his eyes then, fully expecting a kiss from her. But then again, he thought as he winced, she could easily hit him on the head with a chair or something.


Quote:
Bucky restrained her giggling. This was not something she could mess up. Grabbing Rosemary with both hands she leaned into Nik's ear.

"Ready?" She whispered and backed away. "A kiss fit for a prince."

And smiling broadly at Nik's puckered lips she thrusted Rosemary forward slowly, fitting her entire head into his mouth. That'll teach him.


Quote:
Nik smiled when she whispered in his ear but the next second he felt something enter his mouth and his eyes shot open. He reached up and pulled the tortoise away from him, holding it at an arm's length as he wiped his mouth with his other hand.

"Bucky! That's disgusting! I now feel worse! I think a little bit of Rosemary soup will make me feel better...." he said, glaring at the tortoise in his hand.


Quote:
Rolling her eyes she took a seat next to him. She had a feeling they were going to be in there for a while.

"If it's so disgusting what makes you think it's going to taste good in a soup? Then you say your father is the idiot."

Taking Rosemary from his grasp, she placed her on her lap and pressed against her shell to stop her from crawling away.

"Next time you flirt with me I'll be cutting off body parts," she spat and frowned at him. "And I'm not peculiar about which one I cut off first. Now shut up or I'll smack you with Rosemary."


Quote:
Nik looked at her in amusement and blinked as she threatened to cut off his body parts.

"But...the pain...." he moaned as he leaned on her, covering his eyes with an arm slung over them.

He stopped there because he didn't doubt that Bucky would not hesitate to carry out her threats, but pretended to have fallen asleep on her. This was going to be a long wait....


Finally, the end. =P
