Gryffindor??' And then it shouted it out.. At least it wasn't hufflepuff!" She said with a laugh. "Oh no, being mortal enemies with you? That would be terrible.." She said with a nod as she pretended to get her wand out.. "Hex you ehh? Perhaps I shall just make you fall over with my amazing charm!" She said as she playfully batted her eyelashes at him.

Alex nodded, "Well you see my twin sister, was put into Slytherin. So I guess I have a bit more of a reason to hate Gryffindor, but she isn't here this year.. But I guess bravery isn't alll that bad.. Sorta.. They are kinda.. full of themselves a bit.. Gryffindor pride and all that!" She sighed, "But I got put in a house that made me "mortal enemies" With my twin sister.. Can you see why I don't like being a Gryffindor? I don't even like red!" She said with a shake of her head, she watched him smirk a little and her stomach flipped again.. This is new.. She thought to herself as she watched him.

Alex laughed when Damon contradicted himself, "Yes you did, but I think I understand, all your life, you have been prided on being a wealthy pure blooded witch or wizard in your case.. And while you may hate the life style, in a way you grow to like it, or become use to it.." She nodded, she certainly had. Even with both her parents gone, she and her brothers still lived well... "You are right, we are who we are, but I for one will fight tooth and nail before becoming anyone's trophy wife, it didn't do my mother any good.." She looked down for a second before looking back up and blinking, and tucking a lock of blonde hair behind her ear.

She was glad for the change of subject and she nodded. " Of course I will cheer for the Slytherin's, and you if you make the team. If not, well we can cheer together!" She said smiling up at him.
He smirked as he leaned back into the wall from his sitting position on the ledge. "Charm away," he responded with a slightly lazy air, but he smiled and it was... nice. He wasn't usually so nice. "I don't think it had a doubt about me. Took a few moments, but it really only talked about Slytherin. Sometimes it would stray off and be like, "Maybe...," but it never said anything else. A few moments, then just Slytherin." Honestly, he wouldn't have known where to be or who he was if he wasn't put in Slytherin. It was just... how it was supposed to be.

"Really?" he said thoughtfully. "I'm surprised I haven't seen her around if she's in Slytherin. Yeah, but I can see how that would make you resent your house. Are you and her close?" he inquired, his expression softened without the smirk. Not that it was soft either. It was his usual disaffected expression, but interested, with maybe a hint of liking. He snorted derisively. "Hm. I don't know. Red could suit you," he added thoughtfully. But honestly, just about any color could suit her if she wore it.

He nodded at what she said. "You wouldn't have to be, you know. Maybe we're not all as doomed as I've said before...," he let his voice trail off as he smirked at himself. Impending doom. There was a way to look at it. "At least not everyone, anyway, and you'd be more than just someone's trophy wife." He shrugged, feeling a little uncomfortable at how... intimate? open-hearted? the conversation was heading, but he would never admit that.

He snickered as he grinned at her. "What would the Gryffindors think? You'd probably be the only Gryffindor to have ever cheered on Slytherin, you know. And with a Slytherin, no less."
