Alice nodded her head. "It was so sweet of him." she sighed happily, ignoring the mild irritation of her bruishes. Her first adventure marks of camping. Haha. Her eyes didnt leave away from his face.

"So how about grabbing some wooden logs for campfire?" Alice asked enthusiatically as stood up along with him.

"Did you know that a certain Lion loves you?" Fyo asked, laughing. He should have cleared things up to Uncle Henry sooner, really; talking to Butterfly certainly felt a whole lot easier now - though Fyo was definitely surprised that Uncle Henry had not sent him packing, by now.

He guessed the man wasn't so bad, after all.

"Sounds like a good idea," he agreed, when Butterfly mentioned the logs. Those should set their fire up, nicely enough. But - -

Stuupid love.

"Now!" he said, to both of them. "Be quick." He stowed the tinder at them, wonderin' if a fire ring would not have been more suitable. But the kids had already made the fire pit an' all, so he decided to leave things to them.

Birch bark? Fyo blinked, shrugging his broad shoulders as the tinder was pretty much "stowed" at them. "We won't need to collect firewood, now," he told Butterfly, with a smile. "We have these."

A couple of matchsticks later, the fire was ablaze, merry and glowing orange. Fyo turned to Reese. "I still haven't given you your welcome hug," he laughed, suddenly reminded of it.

At least those kids had FINALLY managed to get a fire started. "Hmph," Viad said, surveyin' them all rather forebodingly.

"Well?" he demanded. "Are you all just goin' to stare at the fire, or will you get down there an' start heatin' or cookin' or doin' whatever you want to do with your food?" Seriously, what would these kids do if they ever had to go campin' alone? Viad doubted if any of them had done this before - even if Christian claimed Fyo had.

Alice laughed, no fear of Uncle Henry or any other mysterious stuffs of the dark forest. He was with her now. And no trace of worries with her now, not even zero percentage. " I know, soon I'm going go tackle the certain Lion.' she laughed, watching his expressions. All of them were priceless.

Cute and Hot.

"Well..how about move bit downward to pick up the dry logs?" she asked, dusting out her extremely messy clothes.

"The certain Lion is going to love that," Fyo laughed. He loved how they were both referring to him in third person - it made the conversation sound more adorable, for some reason.

"I think we should get a move on with the food," he said with a sigh, looking towards Uncle Henry. "Or he's going to throw a tantrum, or something like that."

Sheesh. What was wrong with Uncle Henry?

"We're working on it, Uncle Henry," Fyo said, with a shake of his head. "We can't help being a little slow, and we definitely can't help the conversations - we're good friends, don't you see?" He knew the explanation wouldn't be any help, but at least he had tried. He had, hadn't he?

He brought the tin containers to the fire, fully aware that they contained a variety of vegetable soup, dehydrated before being canned. All it needed now, was a little heat and some water. That shouldn't be too hard, now.

Could have invited her? COULD HAVE INVITED- Oh my. This boy has lost his marbles.

"Fyo, dear. Can you talk some sense into this boy before I knock some sense into him?" Reese asked. She looked around the area to see if she could spot a BIG stick just in case Fyo didn't want to talk to Torin. That boy wanted to invite a Professor to this camp thingy and that was jut outrageous. If Bunbury was here, she would have to suffer watching Torin stare at her. And then when they were alone, she would suffer to hear Torin talk about her enchanted laugh. Just EW!

Together? Aww. That girl and Fyo were a couple. How cute. Truthfully, they did look cute together. "That's nice," she stated. "It's just like me and Jack. We're...how did you put it? Together." Hmm. She wasn't sure if Fyo knew about her and Jack. Oh, well. He knew now.

She turned to that man when he said to start their dinner. Uhhhh- Her thoughts about dinner were interrupted when Torin said he took pride in being the King. He must of meant the King of Bunz, since Fyo had said that earlier. "Get a life, Torin. You DON'T have a chance with her," she said. "When will your little brain understand that?" He was NOT the King of Bunz. He will never be. Sorry, Torin.

Then, Torin mentioned the poem. She rolled her eyes and looked towards Fyo, waiting to see what he was going to say about that. Gah. There goes Torin again saying he was the King of Bunz. "YOU ARE NOT THE KING," she immediately exclaimed as she flailed her arms a little bit.

She stopped flailing her arms when the girl started talking to her. "It's a pleasure to meet you Alice," she told the girl with a smile. "So, you must go to Hogwarts. Which house are you in?" She was sure this girl wasn't in Gryffindor, because while the Slytherins shared the Gryffindor common room she never saw the girl there. So, she must be Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw.

Torin's next words made her freeze. What did he mean about telling Uncle Henry about them? The first thing that came to her head was that Henry was a muggle. She shook her head at what Torin said. He would NOT prove that they would wizards in front of a muggle. No. No. No. NO! HECK NO! She would tackle Torin if he tried to pull out his wand.

"Lawson is her king," she firmly stated. "They sure looked cute together during that Quidditch match." Okay, she needed to stop talking now. Saying that in front of the boy that had a crush on Bunbury probably wasn't the best thing to do. But, it was the truth! They did look cute together.

She moved closer to Fyo and Torin as they worked on the fire. She watched as the fire got started and she turned to Fyo when he said he still hasn't given her her welcome hug. Aww. "Well then," she said with a smile. She gave Fyo a little hug and moved a few steps away from him. "There's your hug for today," she added.

Turning back to the campfire, she hoped they would be able to roast marshmallows and make s'mores like they did at the camp-out at Hogwarts! And maybe, just maybe, they could sing campfire song. Yippee. She knew she was going to have SO much fun here.

He had to whisper now, but he was still serious. "Well, Fyo? Want me expelled?" He knew he was being a bad friend right now, but he didn't care.

then Reese started to rant at him. "Whatever, Reese. I know you're wrong. And you're just jealous of her 'cause she's so awesome. Who wouldn't be jealous of her?"Yes, he didn't really mean that. But she was being mean and annoying. "And I'm back to plotting again. I think she might be starting to like me. She actually talked to me in the greenhouses at the end of Term. And she liked the poem."

"I wish I could but I can't, can I?" Fyo asked, shaking his head rather sadly. "I mean, I know there are love potions, but I wonder if there are non-love ones?" Now that he came to think of it, Fyo wondered if it might not be a good idea, feeding Torin a hate potion, or something of that sort.

Reese and Jack were WHAT?

"Reese!" Fyo exclaimed, hand going to his mouth in shock. "You're - you're a VERY badkitty, not telling me you two are together." This was so exciting! "When did it happen, oh when, when, when?"

Awww. "Thank you," Fyo laughed. "That was nice. I haven't had a Reese badkitty hug since...." Well, since that day in Honeydukes, when he had been talking to her, Torin and Emiliano.

"Yeah," Fyo said, crossing his arms across his chest. "I do. Because then you won't be able to see Professor Bunbury, and I think that would serve you right." He gave Torin bad, bad, BAAAADkitty a not-so-good look, before ignoring him and turning to Reese.

"There are smores and bread-dough over there," he said, pointing to a small basket. "If you could bring them, I'll take care of the soup, and then we can roast the smores." This should be fun.

"I can still see her at Hogsmeade!" he exclaimed before he heard the word smores. ZOMG smores!!1!! Droool.

"She isn't at Hogsmeade that much, is she?" Fyo asked, raising an eyebrow at Torin's rather freaky optimism. "Besides, you won't be able to see her in classes, or pay her a visit anytime you want to. And Hogsmeade weekends are few, and far in between." EvilEvil, much?

Talk about smore-lovers. Fyo smiled slightly, nodding. "Yeah, smores," he said, poking Torin's arm. "Go get them if you want them so much - those baskets may look small, but there's plenty of food in them."

He pouted. "Pretty pretty please? Do it so that I can see her in classes and stare at her pretty hair and listen to her enchanting voice." MWAHAHAHA.

"Oh, smores. Where have you been all my life?"

"You really think I would do it so you can go around being the Queen of Bunz?" Fyo asked, cocking his head to one side. Honestly, Torin Kane was too Insane, at times. "I would rather you stay away from her." Forever. Mwahahahahahaha back at cha!

He had to grin at Torin's smore-talk, though. "Silly you," he asked. "Come on, bring them back, Torin badkitty, I can't wait to start roasting some of that stuff." This was going to be EPIC!

Alice pulled back her hair into a tight ponytail since it was getting dry now and it blocked her vision too. Bad wavy hair. She pushed away some of it out of her eyes and laughing with him. "It will happen when the Lions is least expected that" she stuck out her tongue at him, nodded her head, "Sure we can. But what about the food? Are we going to cook now?" she clapped her hands together slightly without making much noise, afraid that it may attract forest animals. Sheesh.

Alice's eyes focussed on Reese now. "I'm a Badger. And how about you?" she beamed when she said she was a badger. It was true and good. Feeling proud of her house, Alice waited for her response patiently. After all they were going to stay together all the night today. Tadaaa.

"Oh, I'm wrong? Excuse me," Reese said sarcastically. She narrowed her eyes at Torin when he said she was jealous. Was he being serious? Did he REALLY think she would be jealous of Bunbury? Ha. Very funny. "I'm not jealous of her," she rejected. She shook her head and just dropped the subject there. No need to carry on an argument with Torin. It wasn't worth it. Actually, it was worth it, she just didn't feel like carrying on that argument anymore.

"You can't?" Reese asked sadly. "I guess I'll just have to knock some sense into him." She walked away from the camp site a little bit to search for a stick. She wandered for a few seconds, then she walked back over to Torin with a stick she had found. "I wish they made none love potions," she said. "That would make my 'get Torin to stop loving Bunbury' plan so much easier."

Reese felt bad now. Fyo didn't know about her and Jack. She would have thought he would have found out by now. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you," she told him. She smiled when Fyo said when like 5 times. "It happened during the term," she answered. "I don't know exactly when. It was sort of towards the end of the term."

"Forever," Reese finished his sentence off.

S'MORES!

Reese turned her attention to the basket Fyo was pointing towards. Oh, yay! She was about to head towards the basket until Torin picked it up. Aww, booo! He beat her towards to the s'mores. No fair!

He held the smores close to him. "1. You can't have them back. 2. You are supposed to want to see me in school. And 3. You are a BAD!Lion. BAD!! Hiss!"

"Mmhmm, sure!" he then added to Reese. Bad Reese wasn't getting any of his smores.

"A Badger, you say? My brother is a Hufflepuff," Reese announced. She sort of missed Jake right now. It would have been cool if he could have gone camping with her. He would have probably been much better at camping then her anyways. "I'm a Slytherin," she answered.

She turned to look at Torin who was holding the s'mores close to him. "Come on, Torin. Bring the s'mores over here or I will have to go over there to get them," she said. He didn't want Reese to go over there and get them, especially when she was holding a stick in her hand.

"Nope. No smores until you admit that I'm the King of Bunz." He waved the basket just out of her reach to tempt her. And he had ninja reflexes, so he could pull them away if she tried to grab the basket.

"I'm not going to admit that," Reese said. "I'm NEVER going to admit that." She gripped her stick and headed over to Torin. Who cared if that Henry dude tried to stop her from giving Torin a concussion. She wanted the s'mores and she wanted them NOW. "Give me the s'mores and no one gets hurt," she told him.

"Drop that stick or I'm throwing the smores to the ground," he threatened her. "And I'll take the fact that you won't say it as you hiding that you really believe that." Yes, that made sense apparently. He eyed the stick and wondered how skilled she was with it.

"I always expect the unexpected, Butterfly," Fyo laughed. It was not really true, but he liked that punch line. As for the food.... Fyo held up the tinned soup. "It's dehydrated vegetable soup," he informed her. "It's delicious, but we need to add water to it, and heat it before we can have some."

Fyo grinned appreciatively at Reese. "Good job there," he said, nodding at the stick. "I should get one too, and he's probably going to be in good control, then." In good hands, too. Tee hee.

"You didn't tell me," Fyo repeated, pulling a sad face. "I'm disappointed in you, Reese, I expected better! You should have told me you're not single, and then I could have invited Jack, and you could have had your Jackkissy in the rain." Bwaha.

Fyo raised an eyebrow. Where had he heard something similar before? "One, I AM going to have them back; two, I'm supposed to be your friend, which means I'm supposed to make sure you stay away from dangerous PINK! ladies like Professor Bunbury; and three, you're an equally BAD!kitty. Bad Torinkitty. BAAAD."

He was not going to admit he was enjoying this conversation.

While Reese and Torin were at it, Fyo sneaked up behind the latter, and grabbed the basket of smores from him. "I got them!" He said, quickly moving way from Torinkitty, and hiding behind Reese. "I so rule, right now!"

"You are an evil smores thief!! EVILL!!!" He pounced on Fyo even though he was hiding behind Reese. "BAD!Lion!" He started to tickle the boy.

"And Bunz isn't dangerous. She's charming and beautiful and her hair is like sunlight."

"I'm a VERY good lion," Fyo insisted, still trying to hide behind Reese. But it was no use - Torin was soon tickling him, and Fyo was trying his best not to laugh as he pushed Torinkitty away with his free arm. "Gerroff!" he said, jumping away from Torin, still holding the basket.

"What do you mean, her hair is like sunlight? Her hair is red, dude." Wasn't sunlight supposed to be yellow-orange? Fyo moved another step away from Torin, not taking his eyes off his best mate. Who knew when Torin Insane Kane could attack? "Let's have some dinner, alright guys?"

He fell to the ground as Fyo shoved him away. OUCH. "Her hair is like copper.. But it's really so pretty. Like the setting sun." Pretty, pretty dazzling red hair. "I wonder what her favourite food is."

Fyodor Balouch had had enough.

"STOP IT!" he said loudly. "Stop it or - or - or I'm going to punch you," he threatened, hoping his anger would make Torin stop sounding like an obsessive stalker. "Please Tor, this is way over normal."

Breathing deeply, Fyo turned away from both Torin and Reese, and found himself a spot near the campfire. Le sigh. "Butterfly?" he called, looking at Lissy. "Don't you want to have any smores?"

"Oh..that would be cool to have a badger in a Snake pit then" Alice laughed mildly. She had such experience in her own family since her sister Bee was ended up in Gryffindor. "By the way which year your brother is in?" she was always curious about her fellow badgers. Especially the Hogwartians.

He seemed enjoyed his own words. Alice shook her head and watching him amusedly. Thinking of how and when to tackle him, Alice grinned, "You'll enjoy, I bet." Her eyes now moved down to the can he had held. "Dehydrated vegetable soup?" she paused, "Well..how about some non-vegertain stuffs Fyo?" her voice mischievous, means back to normal. Beware!!

As Torin tickled Fyo and called him Lion, Alice eyeing him and somewhat felt possessive over Fyo suddenly.

She shook her head. "No..I dont." she looked at the campfire, drowning into her own thoughts.
