Ced feel ashamed of himself a bit.It was quite a not-so-wonderful day today.He has nothing to do with class and all so hanging out with Campy is very fun.He chuckled as Cam said that they were just 12 years old.

Yep,yep.That's true but he didn't acts like that,He's a mature one and well-mannered but sometimes he's just like Jake and Cam and Cyrus too...He acts quite odd sometimes who is a funny scene or moment for him.He look up above,Wishing upon a star.Oh,lookehh.There's no star cause its afternoon.The twinkling stars were blocked by the shine of the sun.

Anyway,he managed to replied quickly and fight for their RIGHTs."But age doesn't matter though.I think Prof Annie,Bunbunz I mean is good enough to give us some of her gillyweeds so we can meet the giant squid."He snapped well,He wasn't really sure if they'll caught a glimpse of Mr.Squiddard but at least they try and one more thing.They can swim underwater.

But then again,The topic of their conversation is about Reese again.He don't want to talk about her but he wasn't angry or furious like that to Reese.He just want to moved on and maybe search for other girls.His charm for sure will win some girl's heart but not now,of course.He have to be more careful and be older so Age and Year will don't bother him anymore."Yeah,She's Alien."He nodded then he murmured,"You too as well as me"

Jack had never realized that were was a small cliff on the grounds before. He must have been too wrapped up on stargazing before. He never really traveled further than the lake, but for some reason he felt like exploring today. And look what he found! The perfect place to relax.

Avoiding the main groups of people, Jack headed over to the far end of the cliff and stared out on the lake. He vaguely started to wonder about whether or not the flooding would ever stop in the castle, or if Hogwarts would soon become the next Atlantis.

Torin was passing by and looking at the people that were hanging out by the cliff. Why was there even a cliff here? First a sandbox and now a cliff... The people here were insane.

He was almost past the area, when he saw a familiar face. Or more like familiar back of the head.

Well, there was only one thing he could do now. Go up to the dude and talk to him.

So that's what he did. "Excuse me, you're Jack, right?"

Jack had been lost in his thoughts, which were getting a bit out of hand, as he thought about what would happen if he got trapped in the Atlantis-Hogwarts and ended up falling in love with a mermaid, when he heard a voice behind him. Shockingly still, whoever was talking to him seemed to already KNOW him. Or at least know OF him. Which was definitely a first. People NEVER knew about Jack.

Turning quickly on the spot, Jack turned to face whoever had just startled him and found himself face to face with a Hufflepuff he vaguely recognized from classes. Interesting. He blinked in shock once more before he finally found his voice again. "Erm, yes...Jack Fritzera. And umm...you?" he asked. That seemed a bit more polite than Who the heck are you and why do you know my name?!?

He ignored the boy's look of confusion, he smiled. "Torin Kane. Reese's best friend."

Now he had to think of the best way to go into this. If Jack found out that Reese likes him, she was bound to throw him off of the tower. And that would really suck.

So he had to play low key..

Ahh, so this was Torin. Reese had told Jack about him, of course. He was the one that Jack had gotten a bit jealous over. He grinned and nodded. "Oh yeah, she's told me about you. Good things, of course," he added with a nervous chuckle. Now that he was face to face with the guy, he felt oddly intimidated. Not that he thought he would beat him up or anything--but if Torin didn't like Jack, he could pretty much kiss his chances with Reese goodbye.

Gulp.

"So erm...what's up?" he asked. Typical ice breaker, but he had nothing else to work with right now.

Well, now he was trying to change the subject. Torin wasn't going to have that. He was just going to have to come right out and ask the dude.

Maybe starting him might get him to confess. And if it didn't, it might be fun watching the guy get all flustered.

"Do you have a crush on Reese?"

Jack blinked again. Well, that was blunt. It caught him a bit off guard, and he felt his cheeks hit up instantly as he scrambled for words. "Wha--what? Like, LIKE Reese? You mean like...LIKE like her?" Great, he had just repeated the word 'like' five times in two sentences.

He felt like he was being interrogated or something. By the best friend. And every word he said was being carefully examined and picked apart. Gulp. "Erm, well, I mean...she's a great girl and everything and erm...um...why are you so interested?" he asked.

That was a dumb question. He was probably acting just like Cale and being overprotective of her.

He nodded. "I take it as a yes. So why don't you ask her out? She might like you back for all you know."

He definitely wasn't dumb enough to tell the guy that Reese had a crush on him too. He just wanted to try to push Jack in the right direction. And whatever way that could be done without Reese killing him for it, was good with him.

Not that he was scared of Reese or anything, he just didn't want to lose her as a friend.

Jack blinked again, dumbfounded. Who was this guy, Monseiur Loveeee? "Well, erm...I've been getting around to it. I've never been a guy who rushes into things, you see," he told him. Oh well, it was the truth. No use in denying that he didn't like Reese now...Torin had rushed right past that part where Jack admitted to it.

Part of Jack was scared stiff of this Torin guy. He was a lot closer to Reese than he had initially thought, and part of him wanted to run far FAR away from him. A startling thought occurred to him suddenly, and he couldn't stop himself from asking the question as soon as it crept into his mind.

"Wait, you're not going to TELL her any of this, are you?" he asked. If he did, Jack would do something drastic. He would...whack him with his telescope! HA!

"Well, I get that. But just remember that there are probably a few guys out there that want to date a pretty girl like her. So just try to beat 'em to it if you can. She won't bite." He gave the guy a friendly pat on the shoulder, trying to get him to loosen up.

Then he broke out into laughter. Was this guy for real? "Are you kidding? Why would I tell her? She would kill me!" He shook his head.

Honestly.

Jack thought about a good comeback to that, and nearly grinned when he landed on it. "Well, if what you say is true and she DOES like me, like you SAID she might, she wouldn't go accepting dates from other guys, would she?" he asked. HA! He had gotten him! In what, he wasn't exactly sure but...he felt like he had the upper hand on that conversation somehow. In his weird, Jack type of take on conversations, that is.

"Oh, ok...good," Jack said. He thought about mentioning how he had a brass telescope in his bag at all times you know, in case he saw an alien or something in the sky and if word of this conversation got back to Reese, he wasn't afraid to use it as a weapon. Ninja style. But that was a bit unnecessary--Jack was hardly threatening anyways. "So this convo is between you and me only, right?"

"She would if she wanted to make you jealous," he replied without missing a step. Okay, she he didn't really know if that was true or not. But whatever.

"Of course, Jack. I mean I wouldn't want any personal convos about my crushes leaking either." He chuckled. He sorta liked this kid. He was cool in a dorky way.

Jack nodded. "Erm, ok then..." he replied, glancing down at the rocky cliff beneath him and then looking up again. So, was that what Torin had wanted to talk to him about? About Reese?

Now a strange silence had settled over the two of them...AWKWARDDDDDDD.

"Look, if you're worried about me leading her on or anything...it's not like that. I do really like her," he assured her. He knew how protective guys could get over their girl friends. Almost big brother protective. Having a little sister himself, he knew how scary guys could get when it came to little sisters.

Wait, What?

"I want you to ask her out, mate. Take the chance and..." He sighed. "Look, Jack. She likes you too but she's too afraid to tell you."

Reese was going to kill him.

Jack blushed and felt himself wishing he could be anywhere BUT here at the moment. Heck, he'd even take living with the Giant Squid if it meant he could get away from THIS conversation. He felt himself begin to stutter as nervousness settled over him. "Well, I erm...that's a uh, good point to uh, ponder over so...yeah. I'll sleep on it. And ermmmm mull it over and see how things go," he told him.

Ok, now he wasn't making any sense. Time to get out of here.

"Oh, look, is that a martain spacecraft?" he asked, pointing off into some random point in the sky. "I think it is! I better run and investigate in MY common room..." Where you can't follow me, "and erm...see if they come in peace and all that jazz...BYEEEE!" he exclaimed, running off before Torin could react.

He stopped halfway off the cliff and turned to face Torin again. "Oh, and it was nice to meet you!" he added before hurrying off again. No need to be rude and forget one's manners, right?

James walked over to the small cliff and sat down. He grabbed a small cloth and opened it. In there were small pieces of electronics and started tinkering.

Dem walked down by the cliff and sat down under a tree. Hogwarts was starting to run out of places to just chillax at. Not to mention, all this homework has been keeping her from seeing her friends as often as she liked. As she droned off in her worries, the sound of tools tinkering caught her attention. She only knew one person in Hogwarts who liked inventing things....

Dem snuck up behind James and looked at everything sprawled out in front of him. "So whatcha making now?" she smiled.

Shaylee had never been here before. She looked around for a familiar face and came up with nothing. After walking around for a while, she finally saw Dem and James. She walked over behind them and said, , Boo! haha Hey guys! She smiled and waved at her friends.

Reed walked outside and found himself at the cliff. His head was spinning. He had so many things on his mind. Today had been crazy. He sat down on the grass and took out a piece of parchment and a quill. There was something that he needed to ask his sister. Thoughts and plans for this summer were already on his mind.

He looked around and didn't see anyone in sight. Wow he had picked a desterted place. Great jst great. He always liked being with people. He had been in the mood lately to meet new people but apparently that wasn't going to happen here. We just went back to writing his letter.

He couldnt help himself as he made his way to the small cliff. It was the only quiet place in the whole castle grounds.. this place or maybe the bamboo forest for really.. who wanted to go there? He himself didnt.

So the boy went to the cliffs edge and took a seat, pulling out his wand. It felt good to have the thingg back in his hands. He felt powerless when he didnt have it. Curse his father for taking it.. not literally but he had been mad.

Demetri looked into the vast water below. the current wasnt rough. But the water also didnt look inviting. twiling his wand, the a small portion of the water below began to twirl. It twirled faster and faster. Almost hypnotizing to look at. this is what happened when you didnt have noone to tlak to..

After a long day of classes, Demetria walked down to the cliff. It was her favorite spot in the whole castle. Something about it was just so intriguing, so peaceful and welcoming. It had been a bit nicer today then it usually was. The breeze didn't seem to be attacking when it blew, just floating by gently.

As she got closer, she spotted a boy sitting on the edge, twirling his wand. Demetria walked towards him and sat down next to him. "Mind if I sit here?" she asked. "I'm Demetria by the way."

The water began to rise as it wirled creating a cool efect. Demetri had always been good with his magic... even before he came to Hogwarts. His parents had always thought they learned it from them but.. he was just a quick learner.

the water effect was just one of his many tricks. His wand twirled faster as the water did almost looking as if a very small tornado had risen. He barely had heard the voice next to him until she said her name. THe water fell back as smooth as it had been before.

"Hey." Demetri said with a smile. "What were you saying? Wasnt listening." Blunt.. he had never been one to care for peoples feelings.. not even his own.

Demetria watched in awe as the boy made a tornado with the water. "Di-did you just do that??" she asked him. "I can tell you weren't listening, it must take a lot of concentration to be able to pull that off." she smiled. "I was just saying, uhm.....hey." she said.

Demetria watched as the water quickly went from crazy to calm. How did he do that, IF he did that? She couldn't evenimagine doing that, and he didn't look that much older then her. Maybe it was just one of those special gifts people had.

Her mouth seemed to drop in awe as she watched his little trick. He didnt mean to impress her.. if he had. Demetri looked back down at the water adn then back at her, a smirk placing itself on his lips. "Yah.. I did that.. its uh... a little trick I like to do when Im alone. Sorry if it startled you." he added the last part.

"You cant do any special tricks? I just taught myself a few.. Dad always told me that I needed to be great at magic." he said with a shrug. Darn.. he always blabed when first talkin to people.. weird how that worked.

"O im Demetri Werner by the way. Slytherin fifth year." Darn.. there was that blunt stuff again.
