Poked back? "You wouldn't dare!" Brooke called as he swung higher, only half serious at his awful threat. But that half that was serious was very serious, because she was ticklish, probably more so than Tallan was, and she would not be seen withering on the ground laughing any time soon.

"Yeah, I s'pose," she shrugged at Tallans reasoning. "The only sport I actually know anything about is swimming." And that was true; Brooke liked swimming, because it was fun! And easy, if she said so herself. And water. And she could splash people. WEHEY!.

Person that cheers? Oh, well Brookie could do that. She laughed, and began twisting on the swing again. "I can cheer. I can cheer LOUUUUDLYYYY." she finished, startling birds in a far off tree and causing them to take flight. Yeah, she could soo totally cheer.

"Cheer for you? Of course. I just cheered for your whole team, hoping one of them would be you," she grinned up at him. She could never see who was who on those brooms; everyone flew around too quickly, even the guy in front of the hoops. "My pleasure!" Wink.

He kissed her.

She's my best friend. I shou - Annie. Oh bloody hell, what have I done? Merlin, why? How could I be so stupid?! I have a girlfriend, and Leigh - Oh, I shouldn't have done that.

Don't say you didn't enjoy it... A sly voice in his ear whispered, and James franticly shook his head to rid himself of the dastardly thoughts. What on earth had he been thinking? His mind was running on overtime and he breathing was sharp and quick. He still couldn't believe he'd had the courage, the stupidity to do such a thing.

"Oh crap," he began, directing his words at no one and muttering swearwords under his breath. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself and then, looking at a loss for words, James turned back to Leigh. "I'm sorry. Crap, I'm so sorry. Tell - tell Annie I'll see her later."

And with that, he turned quickly and jogged away from Leigh.
