"Hey Evolette, it's good to see you again and ahem not in the arms of my Nicholai" she giggled softly. Kayla was not remotely jealous over that incident but a little teasing never hurt either.

'Why?' Terry countered, pretending to look alarmed. 'What on earth's wrong with beaches?' He smirked, raising an eyebrow suggestively, 'Do you have a problem with beaches in general, or just a specific one right now?'

Terry glanced over at Hugo, raising an eyebrow again at Evolette's abrupt departure. He twirled his glass, swilling his juice about. 'Should we...be offended just yet, Hugo?' He asked mildly, before turning up to see who exactly she'd left them for. Aaaah, and speaking of.

He bristled slightly as he caught Nicholai glancing her down, then nodded in reply, even offering a brief smile his way once he caught sight of the girl by his side. Hrrm, was this the girl Evolette had mentioned? The one he'd wanted to get back with?

'Anywho,' Terry murmured quickly, casting his gaze back to his best friend and grinned, 'How's this term been for you? And how were the girls? Were they swooning all over the place for you, eh?'

Hugo teased, sitting perfectly still as, predictably, Lettie's fingers quickly found themselves twisting through his hair, sweeping it out of his face and such. Natural reactions, it seemed. With Terry? No suprises there. Speaking of Terry, where on earth was the gangly idiot? He hadn't seem him in absolutely forever! Pffft.

Hugo turned to face Evolette, not catching on to the tone of voice in which she was speaking. "A lot!" He admitted, wrapping his arms around her and giving her a big squeeze. Hehe. It was true! He hadn't seen her since their little meeting at the hourglasses with Starling, which had been over a week ago. That was the only problem with Hogwarts; it was so freaking big, he never got to see his friends properly! "And how much did you miss ME?"

Hugo heard the mighty roar, before he was wrenched out of his seat for the second time. Blimey, was it annual 'Hug Hugo Really Ferociously Day" or something? Phewww. He'd need to employ a few body guards at this rate! Who even was that? OHEMGEE! "TERRY!" He cried, throwing his arms around his other best friend and squeezing him into the next century. "There you are, you blithering idiot!" He blinked as he was examined, and quickly did a spot check on the Gryffindor too.

Everything seemed to be in order! "I've missed you, duuude! Where in the name of Merlin have you been? And YOU..." He turned to Evolette, jabbing a finger at her jokingly. "...Where have you been hiding him? Tsk tsk, keepign him all to yourself! WELL!" He leapt onto Terry's lap. "Try hogging him nowww!" Yes, it was evident that Hugo Jermaine Woods was in a very good mood. In fact...there was Miles! He waved enthusiastically at his best friend, before freezing. He was with Vannie. Vannie, who he'd kissed. Merlin's Beard. Quickly, Hugo got back into deep conversation with Terry and Evolette.

He looked away quickly as the two of them exchanged 'hello's, not feeling entirely comfortable with Terry planting a kiss on her cheek. Still, he let it pass. "Dude, I know! It seems like just yesterday!"

Hugo sat patiently as Terry and Lettie began the banter. He smiled appreciatively and reached out to recieve the glass of juice when it was swiped from the air and downed. Hmph. Stoopid Terry. He eyed him, before grinning, and punching him on the arm. "Oi! That was mine!" He chuckled, and then blinked. What had Evolette said? Seeing each other over the holidays? Terry and her? His eyebrows knitted together and he peered at her out of the corner of his eye. HMMMM. She always came to his house in the holidays. Mer.

"Yeah....sounds good." Hugo replied vaguely to Terry, still watching Evolette. He came back down to earth, knowing that she'd be awful mad if he didn't buck up his ideas. "I mean...YEAH! Yeah, us lot and Miles." Miles. Gulp. He stole another look over at his best friend plus girlfriend, and then back at Lettie and Terry. Oo-er. They didn't know about the whole Vannie kiss situation. Still, it seemed as though Vaniles were back together anywho, so maybe it was a good thing he'd kissed her? Or...perhaps not.

"Thanks." Hugo beamed, and took the glass that she offered him, careful to keep it AWAY from Terry. Heh heh. He stared as Evolette leapt up and scampered off to mingle with Nicholai. Fair enough; it was the end of term and she probably wanted to expand her social circle a tad.

Hugo lifted his glass to his mouth, pausing slightly as he watched Terry's rather icy reaction to Evolette conversing with Nicholai. He hadn't realised that the Gryffie disliked him so; it was odd the way he almost shivered with displeasure. Hmm. Weird. Still, Terry was known to be slightly unpredictable, so he though nothing of it. "Not quite yet." He replied darkly, clenching his fists as Nicholai appeared to eye Lettie slightly. Eurgh. Creep. He'd never met the guy personally, but the way he was looking at Evolette and from Terry's reaction, Hugo found himself feeling extremely uneasy about the whole ordeal.

"What's up with that guy?" Hugo whispered, jerking his head towards Nicholai. "Has he got a thing for Let...Evolette?" Boy was Evolette lucky that she had two guys like Hugo and Terry who were watching her back. He was like a big brother to her...Terry more a protective lover. Still; same diff.

Tearing his eyes away from Lettie and her...friends, Hugo returned Terry's grin. "The term hasn't been...too bad." Lie. "The girls are nice..." Another lie. "Strangely they've been keeping their distance." And yet another big fat lie. He wanted to seem angelic as he could and stay OFF the topic of girls, in case somehow he let slip about the Vannie kiss. Shudder. "Er...what about you?" He moved on quickly.
