Second Floor Corridor
 

So many a door and so many a chore are found on this, the second floor.

Varius was heading down the grand staircase heading toward the general kitchen area as slowly as possible. He had decided to circulate each floor corridor a total of three times each, using only baby steps to pass the time. Firstly, he needed to wait for a reply and then he would have to wait whatever time remained until 2pm - that is a lot of necessary procrastination!

It was while he was on his third lap of the second floor corridor that the owl in which Varius had titled 'Irkling' came soaring down to greet him. "Hey chuck," he let out his arm for the owl to make a safe landing, "That was nice and fast."

He removed the letter from the owl's claw and sent him on his way, automatically presuming he would not need to reply to her RSVP. The letter read:

Great! She had agreed. Looking down at his watch, he still had around half an hour to kill until two o'clock. He still had to do three laps round the first floor corridor! That ought to waste the appropriate amount of time. He shoved the parchment into his pocket and went on his baby stepping way down to floor one to do his laps before heading off to the kitchens to meet Cela(ho).

This is for MY Zeke and Daffy Duck <3
 

EVIL SHANA!

Reese, who was sick and tired of trying to find her cat, was about to just head back down the the common room. Why did Shana have to pounce on her, which made her cat run off? Annnnd, she had just found her cat the same time Shana pounced on her. Grrrrr. People these days. She should have got Shana to help her find Isabella, but she was better off by herself. It was much easier then having someone following you around.

She stopped walking down the corridor and looked around. "Isabella? Here, kitty kitty," she called out, hoping that maybe her cat was nearby. She waited a few minutes to see if there was a sign that Isabella was nearby. None. She rolled her eyes and continued walking down the corridor,mumbling some stuff under her breath. Stuff like: Shana should have never pounced on me... I should just go to the common room and forget about my cat... Gosh darnit, Isabella. Where are you?

Zeke strolled down the corridor and noticed Reese up ahead muttering something about her cat and someone pouncing... "Uh... hey." he said, trying to stifle his laugh at her mumbling to herself.

Ack. Where was she going? Livvy wasn't quite so sure herself. Rather embarrassing that she could get lost in Hogwarts after attending this school for five years. As she walked down the something floor corridor, she spotted Reese who was mumbling nonsense. Crazy woman.

And there walked by a dude. What was his name? Enrique? Livvy skipped over with a large grin. "Reeeesseee! Hello!" she said, happily.

Zeke and Daffy :)
 

Reese stopped walking when she heard footsteps coming up towards her. Wasn't this corridor empty? Maybe she was being following by fans who wanted her autograph. She was in a band, after all. Then, she heard someone say hey to her. That voice. She hasn't hurt that voice in almost a year.

She turned around and nearly had a panic attack when she saw Zeke. HER ZEKE! Well, not really her Zeke, but still. He was one of her best friend. She dropped her bag she was carrying around with her and nearly tackled Zeke to the ground with a hug. "Ohmygosh, Dude. Where have you been?" She asked, smiling. After hugging Zeke, she let go of him and unwrinkled her robes.

Then, she heard another familiar voice. She turned to face Livvy and waved at her friend. "Hello," she told her, "Long time, no see." She strutted over to Livvy and gave her a hug. Yes, she was defiantly in a hugging mood today, even though she was mad about Shana scaring her cat away.

Zeke laughed as Reese tackled him. "Long time no see!" he said with a grin. "Err... Hi," he said to the other girl. He vaguely remembered her. He'd seen her before with Amanda, but he didn't remember her name. "I'm Ezekiel. Zeke." he smiled at her, hoping she wasn't too good of friends with Amanda and holding some sort of weird grudge-before-she-met-him thing.

Livvy smiled and gave the girl a hug back. Ooh. Like hugging fresh baked cookies. "It sure has been. Too long. How's it been?" she asked. She decided not to bring up the matter of Cale. Rather touchy subject. Though Livvy was quite curious on how he was dealing with his hair these days. "Um. Reese," she whispered. "What floor is this?"

Enrique was talking to her now. Livvy turned to look at the boyand she cocked her head. What?! It wasn't Enrique?! His name was Ezekiel. That was impossible. Livvy was great at names. She widened her eyes and dropped her jaw. "You're not Enrique? Then who the heck is Enrique?" she asked, looking around herself. She was going insane by the minute. "Anyway. I'm Livvy."

Reese nodded. "It HAS been a long time, Mr. Zeke. I bet you were hiding from me or something," she told him, crossing her arms. How else could she not have seen Zeke? First, his hair was red, so it made it hard not too see him. Second, he was Zeke. The very cute Zeke. How could you NOT see him? So, this is where you come to the conclusion of him hiding from you. "So, anywho, how have you been, Zeke?"

"I've been great, Livvy. Thanks for asking. How have you been?" Reese asked her, looking back at Livvy. Then, Livvy asked what floor they were on? For goodness sake, she was 15 and have been attending this school for almost 5 years. Did she really not know her way around? How sad. "This is the second floor, dear," she told her with a giggle.

"Oh yes. I was definitely hiding." Zeke said with a laugh to Reese. "You're just so scary, I have to run away when I see you. Which is... why I'm talking to you right now? Anywhooooo," he said, imitating her, "I've been pretty good. What about you?"
To Livvy, Zeke said, "Err... well, I'm not sure who Enrique is... But nice to meet you," he chuckled.

"Oh... just terrific," she said, smiling. Livvy looked between Enrique Zeke and Reese, shrugging slightly. Reese seemed to be accusing him of hiding from her. Huh. How amusing. She coughed and straightened up when Reese told her what floor it was. "I knew that," Livvy said, crossing her arms in defiance. Sure she did.

Livvy shrugged at Zeke *cough*Enrique*cough*. "Eh... neither do I.. but I swear that there's a kid named Enrique at this school," she said, trailing off as she held up her pointer finger in the air, as if she was trying to place something. "Anyway..... um... do I know you? You look oddly familiar."

"I'm sure there's an Enrique wandering around somewhere around here..." Zeke said. "Erm. I'm not sure. Lots of people know me?" Zeke said. He didn't want to mention Amanda just in case.

Reese narrowed her eyes at Zeke's sarcasm. "I actually have been told I was scare...and crazy...yeah," she told him, nodding her head. At least, she thought she has been called scary before. She might have got that mixed up with crazy. Ah, well. She knew she was scary to Jack Moiser. That little boy was scared of her. "Well- I'm glad your talking to me right now. I missed talking you, Zeke," she said, winking at him. She giggled at him when he imitated her. Bwahaha. Did she really sounds like that? "Well, that's good. Oh, I've been good as well. Just- you know- trying to get book smart for my OWLs. Yeah, school just started, but I don't want to fail my OWLs. So, I'm trying to read up on my studies and everything," she added.

She turned back to Livvy. Mmmhmm. Sure she knew that. But, Reese wasn't going to tell her that. All she did was smile at her. "Yep. We're on the second floor," she repeated, again. "So, Livvy, what have you been up to? Anything interesting happened that I should know about?"

"Someone has actually called you scary? And crazy? Pshaw. That's crazy talk, anyone who says that belongs in St. Mungo's," Zeke said with a silly grin. "I missed talking to you, too. It's been far too long, mon petit Reese. Ew. OWLs. Terrible." he said. "I'm so glad I've got an in-between year this year. NEWTs next year though..."

"Well sure... but not lots of people go around giving off the impression that their name is Enrique," Livvy pointed out. Eh... well. Well... actually... "Actually... I think... I think... I know you from somewhere," she said, thoughtfully.

Livvy just shrugged and shook her head. "Not that I can think of. Pretty boring life I lead. You?" At the thought of OWLs, made Livvy shudder and groan. "Uhhh... OWLs... I totally forgot."

Reese nodded. "Yessir. Cam Karsten has called me a crazy woman and he also said that I needed to take my medication," she informed him. She giggled at the comment about St. Mungo's. Bwahahaha. Maybe Zeke was right. Maybe she wasn't the one that was crazy, but Cam was. "I do agree. It has been far too long," she said, "But, yes, the OWLs. And, your lucky that you don't have to take them." She turned to Livvy and grinned. "Oh, come on, Livvy. Just think, when the OWLs start getting closer and closer. You and me can start a study group," she told the girl.

"Oh. Well. Yeah. You gotta remember who you're talking to there," Zeke said with a laugh. Cam was a little... erm... Cam-like. "I'm super-lucky I don't have to take them. Except I did already. I guess I mean... take them... again..." Zeke said, confusing himself. "Er. Anyway."
He turned to Livvy. "Well, I wasn't quite aware I gave off the impression that my name was Enrique," he said with a chuckle, still dodging the Amanda subject slightly.

Livvy snorted and grinned. "He's rather right about that, Reese. You truly are crazy. Speaking of Cam... I haven't talked to him in ages! Is he still crazy as ever?" she said, shaking her head. That cute-so boy. Which reminded her... he still needed to do that thing with her. But it didn't matter anymore.

"You don't have to take 'em, Enrique?!" Livvy exclaimed, her jaw dropping. What year was this dude in? Must be a sixth year.

At what Reese said, she made a face. "Us? Lead a study group? That spells diaster," Livvy said, laughing. They would get no work done whatsoever.

The Zeke/Enrique dude seemed to be avoiding something. Livvy didn't quite know what, but it didn't matter really. She didn't care. "Well now you know. Is it okay if I call you Enrique anyway? It's a nice name."

Zeke laughed. "Nope. I'm a sixth-year this term." He thought it was funny that she was still calling him Enrique. Not that he objected. It was a nice name. As she said approximately two seconds after he thought that. "Er... not at all. Continue calling me Enrique if you want to, I suppose," he grinned.

fine then, fine then...
Emiliano was just this close to give up on everything, even the chance to talk to Piper...or Karma first. Gahh...
What was wrong with him??
As he walked towards the stairs, he just decided to sit back and relax at a bench nearby...it was just to calm his nerves. He took a deep breath, then closed his eyes...

Milly walked up to Emiliano and said hi how are you ? Milly thought that he looked like a really nice person and he also sounded great so this is a little something for the 5th friend i have met so here.This is the only thing i could think of thta boys like. :The little something Well i have to go now,nice talking to you see you bye x

Sarah looked around she had gone and taken a wrong turn off somewhere, she had no ideas as to where she was, she looked around and thought about how much bigger this school was to her old school. She was sure that this was at least four times the size of her old school if not more. She wished that Brant, Mia or Alice was with her, or even Bee who she hadn't actualy seen since Diagon Alley but she knew that she would turn up sooner rather than later.

Sarah looked around the corridor and tried to see how far down it went but couldn't because or how big the place was she was sure she must be on the second if not third floor at least. She was completely lost as to where the Hufflepuff common room was, she wished that someone would come and speak to her soon otherwise she could see herself being there for awhile.

Sarah decided that she should try and find out if she was on the right path to the girls toilets of if she had made a mistake somewhere, it was better than saying that she had got completely losed and didn't know which way it was to the Hufflepuff common room, she was sure that she would never be able to live that down if it happened.

Shana walked around a bit and stopped-No.No,No,No,firmly No! She couldn't go any ferther down the hall-way,it was to near to the place He would probably be and to save herself from any public emabarresment or awkwardness she'd stay put or turn and go the other way,She saw a girl and laughed a bit.Umm- Are.You.lost ? she said putting her fingers up in the way they do on muggle TV.I.Come.In.Peace. she smiled.

Satine hurried into the second floor corridor trying to catch up with Kel. She realized that there were some students already in the hall which was much different from the first floor corridor. She turned around to see if she could find the new girl and Kel. Figuring that they must've gotten caught up on the moving staircases...she looked up and down the hall looking for suits of armor to tickle.

Sarah looked at the girl and smiled. "I'm okay, I think." She giggled when the girl did the I come in piece thing. "Who do you think I am?" She asked crossly. She put her arms across her chest and stamped her foot. "I am not an alien, thank you." She said. "And I'm not lost." She knew it was a lie, but she wasn't going to ask someone who thought she was an alien if she knew the way to the girls toilets. "I'm just looking at the view." She smiled.
