The Whomping Willow is a ferocious tree planted in the middle of the school grounds. Be careful not to accidentally stumble upon it for it will most likely injure you if you come close to its branches. This tree holds many secrets seeing it has been in the school for many years now. Around the tree is a carpet of attractive landscape that overlooks the entire castle grounds while being surrounded by mountains and the forbidden forest. A few large magically craved stones are scattered around the area for seating purposes. Take a walk, have a picnic or hang around to catch up on studying. Only watch out for those gnomes, they are school property and under no circumstance should they be harmed in anyway.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 06:14 AM

"I have beautiful...Haven't had the pleasure of...what!?" He sounded rather shocked now, nearly leaping backwards into the reach of the whomping willow. "Who? Who are you?"

Helios was now reaching into his robes for his wand. "I am a savage, I am trash, remember? Where is Camira?"

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 06:22 AM

Camira snickered at Helios. He'd obviously lost his mind. "Guess you're not good at taking compliments", she said amusedly. "Would you prefer I was rude and condescending", she asked curiously. She honestly didn't get him sometimes.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 06:43 AM

Removing his wandless hand from his robes, Helios straightend them out a bit. "I take compliments quite well, thank you very much. It is suprise I do not take well." Those eyes she seemed to enjoy gazing into were narrowed as he looked at her with a predators gaze, sans the malice on his face that he wore in the grove.

Taking a couple steps around her, he paused for a moment to try and gather his thoughts. "Good job. We are not even in charms class and you still confuse me. Is this another spell?

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 07:03 AM

Camira had been just trying to be nice, but since Helios was freaking out, Camira decided to take advantage of the situation, if for nothing more than her own amusement. "Another spell. No, of course not. I just thought I should be nicer to such a handsome, dignified boy", she said calmly and seriously. She inched closer to him. "That doesn't bother you, does it?"

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 07:25 AM

That was the name of the game, was it? Helios took his own inch closer to Camira, lest she forget he was the one trying to sweet talk her while she spat venom at him. Those narrowed eyes, were now opend up wide as he met her gaze.

"Not at all. I knew you would come around one of these days." That Greek accent came out softly.

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 07:32 AM

Camira's face showed a flicker of surprise before her mask fell back into place. She smirked at him. She could definitely win this game. She sat down, pulling Helios down with her, and scooted closer to him. "Maybe I just didn't know how to handle my feelings for you", she whispered to him, trying desperately not to laugh. It pretty much took all her self control to keep a straight face and sound sincere.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 07:44 AM

Flashing a pearly white smile, the warrior prince wrapped an arm around Camira's shoulders and drew her close to him, his lips nearly at her ear. "When a boy shows interest in you, be nice. We wasted so much time fighting when we could have been right here."

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 07:53 AM

Camira was starting to get a bit nervous, but she was not losing her game to a Hufflepuff. She leaned into him as he pulled her close to him. She shivered involuntarily when Helios whispered into his ear. She nuzzled his neck with her head and looked up at him. She felt a pang of real attraction for him and got quite freaked out. She would have to obliviate herself later. For now, she continued with her plan. "Well, at least now we can make up for lost time", she said softly, pressing herself into him. She wondered if this was perhaps not going a bit far. Surely Helios would cave soon enough.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 08:20 AM

"Of course." Tilting his head slightly, Helios gazed down at Camira. The slow and steady drumming of his heart, kept the boy calm and collected in situations such as this. A gentle hand was cupping the girls chin as his face seemed to be getting a little bit closer to hers. "Can you be as tender as you can be cruel?" The soft words seemed to fall from his lips like feathers in the wind.

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 08:35 AM

Camira smiled softly, letting herself get lost in the moment. It made for a more realistic performance, at any rate. She felt Helios cup her chin and her heart started beating heavily in her chest. Definitely too far, she thought to herself. She was about to pull back, but then she remembered the whole point of this. Yeah, so not losing, she said to herself. Camira turned her head so that her lips were in the center of his palm. She kissed it lightly, before looking up at him. "You'll just have to find out for yourself", she said tenderly, in reference to his question.

ScarlettMalfoy · 11-20-2007, 08:46 AM

Scarlett was walking around the grounds still, wondering where Camira wondered off to. She was quite bored and wanted to hex something. So she walked over to the Whomping Willow, it seemed a good thing to practice her hexes on. She was walking towards it when she realized Camira was, what it seemed to be cuddling with that Hufflepuff Helios. Scarlett was in shock, then in outrage. It was just when she was about to interrupt them when she took a step back behind a near by bush and hid behind it before being seen by either of them, she thought to herself "It couldn't be? Camira with Helios". It wasn't just some Hufflepuff, it was the one who got them a detention. This had to be a joke of Camira's. So Scarlett decided to let them be and see what was really going on. She felt weird watching her best friend with that boy. It seemed a bit creepy. But she was so curious she couldn't seem to make herself step back and leave.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 08:48 AM

That kiss to his palm sent an electric shiver down his arm to his heart and through his spine. A momentary droop in his shoulder blades was the only giveaway. Smiling like a charming prince, that same hand glided through her dark hair as that other arm held her to him, the hand retreating slightly into his sleeve. "This is a dangerous game we are playing." Helios searched her eyes for some telling sign. "If I gave up now would you be happy or disappointed?"

Mell · 11-20-2007, 08:56 AM

Kayla walked up to the Whomping Willow just in time to see Helios and Camira playing it nice and close to each other. Her heart gave a painful lurch as she watched them but she would not let them see it as she drew closer. "Having fun I see" she said trying to keep the acid out of her voice but failing miserably.

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 08:57 AM

Camira didn't know what to say. This had all started as some game, a challenge of sorts. It seemed as though Helios was going to admit defeat. That was the whole point, but now Camira wasn't sure she wanted it to end. What's happening to me, she thought. She still wasn't sure what to say, so she nuzzled his neck with her head, pressing a kiss into his neck. She wasn't sure why she did it. She was horrified with herself, but she couldn't stop. Finally, after a long silence, she murmured softly into his neck. "What do you think?"

She was interrupted by the sound of an angry female voice. She looked up and saw Kayla. She suddenly remembered that Helios and her were dating. Oh God, i knew this was a bad idea, she thought to herself. She didn't say anything, but waited to see what Helios would say.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 09:06 AM

"Have you no tact, girl?!" Helios snapped at Kayla as he quickly unwound himself from Camira, and leaping to his sandled feet.

His wand was in the hand that wasn't holding the Slytherin girls chin previously. "I was just about to work my wand out my sleeve, and you come stomping up here instead of watching that spying snake!"

ScarlettMalfoy · 11-20-2007, 09:07 AM

Scarlett was confused and shocked as the scene unfolded before her eyes. She was getting a cramp in her legs from crouching behind the bush. She was debating on whether she should reveal herself and find out what was really going on. She heard voices getting louder and decided to come out in case Camira needed help. She then heard what Helios had said, "So who's the spying snake then" she asked curiously. She was trying to be as nice as she could, she didn't want to end up in detention again and she really didn't want Camira to get expelled.

Kayla's eyes narrowed as the sparks flew from them. "Well excuse me for not being in on the plan" she spat. She walked the last two steps towards him and slapped him hard across the face. "Next time you might want to let me know so I don't ruin it for you" she knew she was close to tears but she desperately held them back. "I wish I had never met you" she added in a whisper and she turned on her heel and stormed off.

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 09:14 AM

Camira watched as everything exploded. Helios had jumped up and talked about using his wand. Was he planning on hexing her from the start? Then, Scarlett came out of nowhere. Camira just stood there, looking confused and a bit sad. She had no idea what had just happened. She watched as Kayla slapped Helios, yelled at him, and started to walk away. She looked between Scarlett, Helios and Kayla, and shrugged, at a loss for words.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 09:25 AM

His head snapped to the side as he was slapped. Kayla was a feisty one, perhaps that was why he liked her so. It didn't hurt. At least not physically. A cauldron was churning in the pit of his stomach. He wanted to apologize and tell her not to walk away. But his pride shouted to her: "Perhaps I can find you a genie to make your wish come true! What are the other two going to be!?"

As his face looked forward again, the redness from his cheek leaked to the rest of his face as he fumed with rage. Sliding his wand back down his sleeve, he shot a spiteful glance at Camira "Why are you looking at me like that!? Do not insult me by pretending you were not planning the same thing! Why else would we play such a foolish game!?" These girls were all crazy. He'd have be safer trying to snog the whomping willow

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 09:32 AM

Camira was really confused now. She had no idea what he meant by that...unless, "wait, you think I did this because I wanted to hex you or something", she asked, outraged. She shook her head, anger filling her now. "I get it. Because I'm a Slytherin, I can't be nice to someone for any other reason. There's no way I could have realized that I was being stupid and childish." She knew her anger was mostly at herself, for allowing herself to let her guard down. She shouldn't have done it. Somehow, she was hurting and that wasn't supposed to happen. Somewhere along the way, Camira's motives had changed. She avoided looking at anyone and instead stared at the Whomping Willow.

ScarlettMalfoy · 11-20-2007, 09:41 AM

Scarlett was distraught, she was looking at Camira and Helios in amazement. She couldn't seem to move or speak. She didn't know what to do. She then seemed to get some feeling in her legs and started to pace around. She seemed to be losing her mind. She started muttering to herself. Then she stopped abruptly looked at Camira then went back to her pacing and muttering. Maybe Camira was confunded she thought to herself.

Helios Sunrider · 11-20-2007, 10:17 AM

"Do you find me that dumb? How could I possibly trust you after what happend in the hall and the grove? The staff may accept some halfhearted apology, but I am not that naive! You told me how you feel when we first met! Why else would you want to get close to me...unless..." Helios was flabbergasted. A sudden look of shock took over his face.

"By the Gods! You really were becoming infatuated with me, were you not?" Curiouser and curiouser.

Amira With a C · 11-20-2007, 10:28 AM

Camira stared at Scarlett as she seemed to be having some kind of nervous breakdown. It was really quite frightening. "Are you alright there, Malfoy", she asked worriedly.

She then turned her attention to Helios and listened to what he had to say. She sighed and walked over to him so that she could speak softly. She didn't need all of Hogwarts overhearing this conversation. "Listen. I know I started messing with you guys for no reason. I was bored and lets just say some of my teachings from home were a bit...prejudice. After Charms, I realized that you guys were a lot more fun than a lot of the people I knew. I was genuinely trying to be nice today, and you sort of freaked out. I thought it was funny so I exaggerated my friendliness. You caught on and it went from there." She sighed and looked up at him to see how he was reacting, letting him see the honesty in her eyes. She quickly looked down again. She reached out to touch his hand subconsciously, but caught herself and jerked it back. She took a deep breath and continued. "When you asked me how I would feel if you stopped, I realized...welll... that maybe I didn't want you to."

ScarlettMalfoy · 11-20-2007, 10:40 AM

Yeah, fine just fine. I need t-to find him. I need to find it" Scarlett said muttering still. She had lost it, that was it. She then noticed Camira start talking to Helios again quietly and couldn't make out her words. "Why are you talking about me! Stop it! STOP IT" she was screaming and didn't exactly fully understand why. "HE WAS THEIR FRIEND" she blurted out. It was all complete nonsense. She then fell to the floor twitching.
