"Me either, I'd always thought that he was more into indoor stuff." He said, hiding a smile at her confused answer. He'd of probably been really at a loss for words if it had been Eva showing him something like this as well.

Awweh. She was so cute when she tried to lie. Especially about something silly like reading.

Reaching down, he picked up the book she'd dropped, and brought it up too her eye level. "Is it good?" Sebastian asked, not looking at the spine or cover. He'd probably not enjoy it anyway.

Eva decided not to add that what she knew about his brother was that Tobias was a Slytherin and had died a few years before, in the common room. Oh. right, and he'd be a canary, she reminded 'the animagus thing' of the Milans.

The girl had three ways of calling him: Sebastian, like always did; Seb, when she wanted his attention; or Milan if she was angry at him. Sebastian could tell about the she started the sentence, what she wanted.
"You know.... hum... Sebastian, there is something. Do you have anything to tell me?" she asked, expectation and curiosity all over her.

She blushed more.
That question required an immediate solution.
She raised her head, bringing her lips to his, while she took the books from his hands, wishing for that to work.
She was out of imagination.

Blinking bewilderdly a few times, Sebastian watched her very carefully, "Uhumm..? Tell you what excatly?" He asked, his eyebrows contracting down so they almost met in the middle. He reached up and tousled his now blonde hair. Also Alyss' fault.

But what the heck did she want to know?

As she kissed him, he grinned, against her lips, obviously. "I'll take that as a yes." He replied, to his own question really.

Eva blinked. He really didn't know what she meant?
"Sebastian, we're fourth years now..." Any hint? No? she continued. "Well, remember when Alyss decided to tell me a few... interesting things about... your family? And she told me one thing... now I'm waiting for you to... explain it." not the best choice of words, but it would give him a clue about what she was talking.

"By the way..." she hadn't notice his hair until now. ".. you look a bit strange." It was odd to see him blonde. It was obvious Eva disapprove his new hair colour but didn't make comments about it.
Everybody was changing their nature hair colours. Who was she to criticise?

Edeline had just proven once again that she had no sense of direction. She had been trying go somewhere and yet here she stood staring at all the many sparkling trophies won by past students. They were all so fantastic and yet she wasn't sure what they meant at all.

That's when the question of whether or not she truly belonged her came across her mind. This place was strangely comforting and beautiful. Maybe it was because of the proof of past accomplishments by others. Or it could have been the fact she wanted to make both of her crazy parents proud in someway.

"Oh, you mean apart from this?" Clicking his fingers in between them, he allowed a small flicker or fire run up between them, then poof into smoke at the end. "Alyss probably told you about the animagus stuff, didn't she?" He asked, sighing slightly. He'd found out last weekend what he'd be able to turn into once he was eighteen. It was better than what Tobias had got...

But that wasn't hard.

"Also Alyss' idea." Sebastian muttered, running his hand through his hair, "Jared had put a sleeping curse on the first dark haired male that came through their door... So Alyss dyed my hair blonde." And it still hadn't come out.

"Yes, appart from that." she said. Eva was fascinated with his ability. "That's a pretty cool thing. You play with fire and you never get burn." she paused, smiling at him. "I wished I could do that."

"Yeah, and I would dare to say she told me everything about you guys and your family if I didn't know there's always more." she said, trying not to sound a bit rude. Sebastian was probably aware that she didn't like his family. Unless Alyss, she thought. Sebastian's volatile cousin was a very... interesting person.

"Eh eh. I wouldn't like to be in your place right now." she said, poking his shoulder lightly, although he was a bit taller than her. Not much, though.

Just to be a bit showy, Sebastian pulled out a piece of paper, placed his hand against it, and in half a second, reduced it to ash. Grinning as the ash fell about his hand and down to his feet he muttered, "It'd be awesome if you could do something... Similar." And it'd be terribly funny if she had a water power. Lawl.

Mmh, he should probably tell her all about it. "I'm going to have the ablity to change into a horse... When I'm eighteen." Whoosh. It seemed so close.

OOC: Sorry it's short

Eva's smile fadded, even it was just a little. She quickly recovered and kept smiling, wishing he hadn't notice. During that summer, Eva had also realized of a couple interesting facts about herself. It had scared her a bit and that was something she didn't want to think about until she was sure what that meant.
She also she didn't mentionated she had almost drowned... while her sister was having an hard time breathing. That had been scary.
"Well, I can't."

Suddenly, she burst out laughing.
With a guilty yet innocent expression, she asked just to be sure:
"A horse? Like a horse-horse? The horse animal?" she just couldn't picture him as a horse. "I'm trying not to imagine that, I truly am."
She blushed as she kept laughing. She was forcing her body to stop, but it was... hard.

"Sorry..." she apologized again for her behavior. Sure he didn't think I'd laugh, she thought with a feeling of guilt.
"What does your father think about it?" she asked, her face serious again.


ooc. it's okay

Sighing, as well as smiling, he said, "Yes, the horse animal... As supposed to any other type of horse." Gosh... It did seem too soon. It was only... Couting quickly in his head, he managed to work out that it'd be in just under three years.. As his fifteenth birthday had been in September. "Dad's pretty... Impressed that it wasn't anything weaker." He admitted, and leaned back against the pillar behind him.

Birthday... Why was that so... Important to his mind at that moment..?

Of course! "Hey, um. I don't know how to ask you this... But... It's Winter's birthday on the twelth of December... D'you want to come and celebrate with me, him, Alyss and Layla?" Hopefully his father wouldn't get wind of it, birthdays were not a Caster or Milan trait. Neither was Christmas.

She chuckled.
"Are there any other types of horses?" oh, of course there were. How could she had forgotten. Stealling another glance at Sebastian she decided he might not know that kind of things. Muggle stuffs.
"That's great. Then you can give me a ride." she joked. She was only kididng. With luck, in four years, she would have pass the exam and she would be able to apparate... and ride a car. She smiled. She had always wanted to take the driving license soon.

She laughed.
"I think you did it well." she shook her head. They were close friends since the second year and now he remember to be embarassed around her?
She couldn't help blushing a little, though. It was her nature.
"Yeah, sure..." she paused. "You, Alyss, Winter and Layla, only?" she just wanted to be sure.

Chuckling with her, he shook his head slightly. "Not that I'm aware of." Mmh, maybe that would be something to research over the holidays. Or maybe not. His father might find it as a strange new habit that he'd have to have Jared to break.

"Yup, just us four.." Then he added, moving a small bit closer to her, "Well, it'd be five, if you want to come..?" When he asked he, he allowed a small smile to break at the corner of his mouth, moving the awkward feeling away.

"Sure, I'll go." she replied. "Just let me check with Luc-mom..." she asked, blushing a little more.In the past few months, Eva had become very close to her godmother, especially since Lucy had started to work in the Ministry. In fact, Lucy was taking care of moving in to her house. That will be immesly fun!, she thought. But the girl now found herself more connected to Lucy. She asked Lucy to get the supplies for Snow and Missy and asking permission to do things like that.
"But she'll let me go."

"You know something?" of course he didn't, she hadn't tell him yet. "My house is going to be... a bit full of people soon." she said. As she spoke, she turned to see the trophies around. Being in the Trophy Room and not look once at the trophies... well, that was just odd. That's Sebastian's fault. He's the one that keeps my dazzled.
She turned again at Sebastian with an ammusement expresison on her face.

Grinning, Sebastian looped an arm around her shoulders, "That's awesome." He replied, then stiffened suddenly. "Alyss has just informed me that Layla might be bringing a friend." Ugh. He hated it when his aunt made new friends. She just accepted that they'd be liked by everyone else. Which wasn't always the case with the Casters, Milans, and Glass's.

"Sometimes your house sounds more full than mine or Alyss's." He told her removing his arm from her shoulders for the sole reason that it was cold. Shoving his hand into his pocket, he allowed his mind to search out his cousin. She wasn't in Hogwarts... Diagon Alley maybe..

"That's great." she replied but saw the expression on his face. "Or not...? You don't seem too happy with it. Should I remind you you're bringing a friend too?"

"No. It's impossible. In my house, now, it's just: me, my mother, my sister and our cats, Missy and whatever the black cat's name is." she thought a little about what she was saying. Maybe her house was a bit full during summers but during autumn, winter and spring her mother was all alone. Not anymore, she thought.
"Lucy is moving in. I must say I never imagined her living in a muggle neighbourhood, but... people surprise us. Don't know if she'll be staying to long, though." she added. She had her own suspicions. That's what happens when you send a letter to the wrong person...

"Well, I know...But, this is kind of, different. Layla's friend, Maria is slightly..." Ooh, how did he phrase this to sound like he wasn't being offensive, or racist. "She's Ukrainian, and a little... Brash." And her harshness and moodswings could give even Alyss a run for her money.

Suddenly laughing, he looked at her with amused eyes, "The 'black cat' has no name?" He chuckled, poking her lightly on the side. Then, sobering up quickly he looked at her face with a new look, "Are you... Glad that Lucy's moving in?" He asked cautiously, "Or..?" Or what, really...

Eva laughed.
"That will be... funny to watch. Good for her your father won't be there." she had too much about Jonathan Milan to know he would like someone like this Maria.

"The black cat it's my sister's. She never named it, so... it's the black cat. It's a she, thought. I think..." Eva replied with a slight frown, trying to remeber exactly Ellie's cat. it was the complete opposite of Missy, black, athletic, green eyes...
"Yeah, of course. That will be great." She was veyr excited with the idea and she only realized later what he meant:
"Lucy sent me a letter that was meant for my mother. There's a man in the picture. Gee, if you read it..." she explained the content of the letter with a smile. "She calls him everything: a child, irresponsable, idiot... And they kissed. If I know Lucy, and I do, that's a huge step. Also, he's younger than her. That is mixing with her nerves." then it was the serious part. Lucy mentionated a Ted Chloe Longwood was suppose to know that was a aprt of Lucy's past. Eva had been surprised when she had thought how little she knew of her godmother's - and her mother's - past. "Then there's another man. Not very nice, though. That my mother is suppose to know."
It was obvious Eva had never heard of Ted before.

Edward walked in the Trophy Room. He was suprised how many people were here. It was usually just him and Ella when they wanted to talk or be together when they were sad or needed someone to be there for them.
