Anna approached the door to Professor Myers's office. It was open, and upon first glance, one could clearly see why. It looked like the professor had decided to set up camp in a closet or a...hole of some kind. Anna knocked anyway, out of respect, and waited for the professor to allow her a chance to come in. He'd promised her a pass to get into the restricted section of the library, and she was hoping he had it ready for her.

Caleum looked up upon hearing someone knocking. "Ah! Anna. Come in," he said as he opened up a drawer that contained the notes he had promised her. "I hope that everything has been well since we last spoke." He found the envelopes that he had for not only Anna but Nicholai as well.

"Here we go," he said as he opened up the one for Anna and showed it to her.
"Nicholia's will say the same as well just in case one of you happens to loose one of the letters," Caleum said as he couldn't help but think that there were some students who would misplace things every once in a while, not that he knew them personally. -whisles-

"Thank you, Professor," Anna said, accepting his invitation to come in. She started to ask him about the permission forms, but she could see that he already suspected that she was in here for that very thing. She watched as he retrieved a few envelopes and took a form out of one.

"That's just perfect, Professor!" Anna exclaimed. "I really appreciate your assistance with this. I really hope I can locate some sort of clue. I'll be back in if I need any additional advice. You've been such a wonderful help!"

Constantine hummed a simple tune as he strolled down a hallway up to Caleum's office. It had been a while since he had talked to the man and Neo felt kind of bad that he was there mainly to ask for a favour. Perhaps it would turn into something; who knew?

Stepping up to the door, he ceased his humming and knocked on the door in a rhythmic fashion.

Caleum smiled as he rested against his chair with his elbows on the armrest of the chair. "Good, good," he spoke as Anna said it was perfect. "I will have to check up on you to see how you are doing. Mysteries and here at Hogwarts. I'm intrigued and delighted that I could help somehow. Just make sure and use it wisely and behave." He just had to add that just in case but he knew Anna. She was not the type to cause such things, but the other one that was working with her, well, he didn't know much about that one. Slytherin none the less so there was no telling.

Caleum raised his head to another knock at the door as this time, it was Neo, his dear friend. "Oy," he exclaimed as his eyes shifted around his small office area. "Glad you could make it, mate. And you remember Anna." Of course he remembered that student she was one of the ones that was caught in his classroom last year, poor thing.

Constantine laughed lightly, "I was glad to be able to get off the grounds for a bit. Man, you weren't joking around...this is a closet!" Neo started to laugh a bit harder as he looked around the small room. Ugh, it was too small. "I don't know how you do it, my friend, I would freak out if I had to work in here. I like my office. They're nice and spacious and big and full of fresh air and pure, undiluted sunlight and trees and wildlife and...(ugh) students..." he trailed off into a satisfactory sigh; he so wasn't rubbing it in.

Caleum shook his head. "Rub it in mate," he snickered then licked his lips and pressed them together. "Nothing like jumping over my desk to get out. Oh and you know it really was a closet before this." Oh that was the funny part to him, but he wasn't complaining. He didn't mind the confined place at all. "But none the less, I am glad to see you made it down, finally." He had to add that little finally in there at some point.

Constantine laughed and looked around the room again, "oh yeah...I'm glad I came...it's been a while," he eyed his young friend. "I didn't even get a chance to speak to you properly at the opening feast. You have time now? Or am I interrupting something," he asked as he eyed Anna for a few seconds, with a gentle smile, before turning back to look at Caleum.

Caleum completely forgot that Dominic was in his office as well. Such a small confined place...he was in need of some air. "Not too busy at the moment," he began with a smile. "Dominic here, well, he doesn't talk too much but likes pranks and Anna, she was on her way to the restricted section of the library. Library, I need to visit sometime soon and you need to join as well." He knew that Constantine liked books just as much as he did which was one of the reasons they got along so well. That and Madison of course.

"Mmm, so then plenty of time! Excellent," he smiled. "Come then, let's walk and talk. We can visit the library later, I'm in more of a talking mood," he smiled to himself as he stroked his chin lightly.

Caleum chuckled Constantine for a moment thinking that he was joking. "You are truly funny sometimes. Talk. You don't talk much but when you do, you know I'm there to listen." He stood up from his desk and slid in between the wall and the side of the desk to get out. "There," he said as he looked to the other students and pointed them out the door. He would visit with Dominic later since the boy wasn't talking at the moment.

"Come, let's walk and talk," he said making his way out the door and stepping to the side.

Constantine smiled as Caleum showed the children the door and then walked out it himself. Constantine was quick to follow, uttering a small "so sorry" to the two children. "So," he said smoothing out his robes and taking in a nice deep breath of hallway air. "There...not so stuffy. Where would you like to walk?"

Dominic had become completely absolved in his usual dazed self where he hardly noticed the girl Anna enter and distract Mr Myers from him; making a request to which he was not aware being in his confused state. And then another man, looking around Mr Myers age, entered the scene.

Watching the interaction between the two, he suddenly broke away from his thoughts when he heard Mr Myers mention his name and pranks in the same sentence. And then something that really awoke him was the mention of that dreaded 'L' word.

"Er, Professor?" the fourth year blinked, speaking suddenly and stepping away from the wall he'd found to be quite comfortable. "Can I... I mean... do you mind if I join your walk with you and your... acquaintance?"

The word friend scared Dominic, so acquaintance was much better suited. And not completely inaccurate from the looks of things. But since he was supposed to head out on a walk with Mr Myers anyway to the common room, why not join him with his friend, who remained unknown to the Hufflepuff?

Caleum breathed in the fresh air from the hallway and noticed the temperature drop between his closet and the hallway. Strange. But then there was the sudden decision of where to walk. "Oh, I don't know," he began with pressed lips as he began thinking of a good place to go.

But then Dominic finally spoke. With the few words that Dominic had spoken, Caleum sighed as this time might not be a good time for a student to tag along. "Tell you what. How about I meet you in the library in a little while or I can meet you in the Hufflepuff common room? We can swap prank ideas, some that will make your friends laugh and cry at the same time." He couldn't help but add that in there. He enjoyed the little huffie but right now he needed to chat with Constantine. "We are on our way to..." think of somewhere...QUICK, "to visit Nurse Nummel about something. Something that involves things that...well, you might not enjoy too much." He paused as he placed his hand on the boy's shoulder.

"Adult things. I'm afraid that it is not fun chatting." His face held a rather disappointing look as he shook his head from side to side, glancing back and forth between Neo and Dominic.

"Uhm, yes. Nurse Numel's office. It appears my back is hurting again...I need to get her to look at it. I assure you that you'd be bored out of your mind..not to mention, us professors need to chat about matters that you need not worry about. Sorry, dear child," he sighed before turning to Caleum. Well, his whole statements wasn't a complete lie. His back was starting to hurt again...

"Shall we?"

Dominic watched the exchange between the two men carefully, awaiting their response. They seemed to be the perfect duo for him to learn from, but yet awfully suspicious at the same time. After what in reality wasn't a very long wait at all, Mr Myers spoke.

The library!? Oh no! No way was he going thereeeeee againnn! Sighing quietly, he waited for him to finish speaking. Ah yes, the Hufflepuff Common Room would be ideal indeed. Minus the female population, but he would just ignore them as he was good at that.

Despite his curiosity to find out what Myers and his friend up to, he knew he probably shouldn't press the issue much more. "Not... fun..." he repeated slowly, eying Myers carefully. Adult things? Pfft; judging from the belch powder the guy displayed for him before, he doubted as much.

"Erm. Okay then..." the fourth year said quietly. "I'll just... er... meet you in the Hufflepuff Common Room when you're done then. See you." Giving a small wave with his hand, Dominic shoved his hands lightly into his pockets and nodded off towards the kitchen level where the hufflepuff common room was. Well, that was... awkward...

Caleum felt bad as Dominic headed off to the common room. He would definitely pay a visit there after his chat with Neo...and now Ari. "Let's go," he said with a sigh.

Constantine grimaced as the little hufflepuff boy went away, leaving him to be with Caleum. "What's the sigh for, my friend," he inquired, with a quizzical look on his face as they started to walk down the hallway. "Surely, if your meeting with the children was that important, I could wait. It is of no matter to me," he shot a sideway glance at Caleum, examining his friend quickly before looking back down the hallway.

Cale was still holding Anna by the hand as he approached Myers' office, with Piper in tow as well. He had gotten Anna to calm down now and hopefully this thing would pass over smoothly. "Professor Myers!" he called, knocking on the door. He didn't hear any movement inside...darn, he was probably out! Just their luck. Sighing, he turned to the two girls and shrugged.

"Doesn't look like he's in," he muttered. "Well, we're not going anywhere yet," he added, standing against the wall in resignation. He was not gonna sit back and let this one just blow over--no, they had completely crossed the line this time and hurt him and Anna, and he wasn't about to let them get away with it.

Anna fidgeted nervously while waiting for Professor Myers to open the door. Hopefully he'd be in. They really, really needed to talk to him. Even though Anna was still under the effects of the love potion, she knew, thanks to Cale, what happened to her now; so she was a little more focused than she had been. She looked down and smiled at she and Cale's intertwined hands. This was how it was all meant to be. Soon enough, somebody, somwhere would have an antidote, and she'd been completely well. "Professor Myers!" Anna called, watching Cale knock on the door. Ohhh, please be in.

Anna sighed and took on a very defeated look when Cale announced that the professor wasn't in. She knew it was all too good to be true. However, her spirits lifted a bit when Cale said they still weren't leaving. Cale was determined, and Anna knew he wouldn't let her down with this. "Thank you, Cale," Anna said.

Caleum came strolling up to his office, wiping his hand from the messy pumpkin carving. He had to clean his nails soon, especially before Anna Banana saw those dirty nails of his. As soon as he got closer....GASP!

"I-errr-Don't look at my hands," he confessed as he got closer to his small cupboard of an office. "My...nails are dirty." He began snickering trying to keep the smile from his face.

"So what do I owe for this wonderful visit to my office," he asked as he opened the door and peeked inside. "Mmmm...stuffy."

Cale sat up quickly as Caleum appeared only moments after they had arrived at the office. What perfect timing! He took Anna's hand again and wrinkled his eyebrows.

"Why would we look at your...nevermind. Erm, we have a very serious problem, professor," Cale explained, putting his free hand on his hip. Oh yes, he meant business.

Anna suddenly heard a noise coming from behind, so she whirled around to see who she was about to come face to face with. Hopefully it wouldn't be Nico---or worse, Trel. For a moment, Anna's heartbeat picked up and she was almost sure she'd stopped breathing; so when Professor Myers emerged, Anna was more than just a little relieved.

"Professor Myers!" Anna greeted, focused only on telling him as quickly as possible what had happened to her. Would he notice anything? Her skin was rather pale-looking. Did she still look sick? She didn't even know. She felt better, but that may just be because she suddenly felt safe with Cale around.

"Your...huh?" Anna asked, taken out of her thoughts by the mention of dirty nails. When she focused on the professor, she realized what he was talking about and giggled. "Well, this is your lucky day, sir. We're here on business, actually. No time to analyze nails. I will keep that in mind for later, though."

"That's right," Anna confirmed. "A serious problem. May we come in?" she asked.

Caleum first heard Cale and then the smile disappeared. Was it his teaching? Did he do something wrong? And then he heard Anna giggle. Another half crooked smile appeared momentarily.

"If you can stand the stuffiness, please come in," he said as he opened the door, walked inside and squeeeeezed between the desk and wall to get to his chair. "One of these days I'm just going to jump over the desk to get in and out."

But now he was worried about why Anna and Cale were making a visit to his office. "So tell me," he began as he leaned back in his chair and crossed a leg over the other. "What have you two been up too?" He wondered about the book thinking that this might have something to do with that. Oh how he loved a good mystery.

Cale nodded and followed the professor into his office. Geez, it was cramped in there! Weren't teachers supposed to get nice working spaces? Sighing, he sat down in the chair and looked up at the professor.

"Well, erm, you see...Anna's been given a love potion professor, and I have reason to believe that the person who GAVE her the potion was doing it just to spite me. So I guess the first order of business would be to get her in right state again," he explained, turning to Anna and sighing. He hated seeing her like this...it looked like a constant struggle for her to resist the potion in her brain.
