Jule walked around the corridor. Her hair was bouncy today, yet straight. She tried not to be outside much since the flood was now getting worse.
"Oh well..." she mumbled and kept on walking. She didn't want to get sick and end up in the hospital wing again. The healer was mildly rude and impatient.
"Better stay out of the water....for now."

Robert rolled his eyes as he heard Elizabeth speak and stepped up right behind her, "Well...I suppose I'd have some explaining to do." He smirked as she turned and grinned at him, "As a matter of fact I don't. Free period remember. I decided to just walk."

He looked over at the young boy as Liz stepped back and he smiled, "Ah a kindred heart then. See...it's good to wander around," he said to Liz as he wrapped his arms around her and held her close. "Besides, I knew eventually I'd run into you." Looking back to Torin he smiled, "So...Torin...quite an interesting name. I like it. What do you think about having to move in with us Ravies?"

Kevin slowly made his way along the third floor corridor being careful and staying away from the walls cause of his last detention he hoped that he would make some more friends and he was really in the need for some new robes and why hadnt his father sent any of his packages to him and why hadnt he heard from his father in a while

Laura wandered round the Corner and saw that she was in the Third Floor Corridor. She was, and it had to be said, beyond bored. Where on all of Earth was everyone? The ravenclaw hadn't seen any of her friends for ages, and considering the fact that it was Vickys birthday, she was particularly desperate to see them and to hand Vicky her present.

Ok, so saying that in ages she hadn't seen them was a lie. Laura had seen Vicky, Jule and Linda only yesterday, but hadn't seen Isabella and Shaunee for a while....

Darn, she thought. Where is everyone when you need them?

Kevin wasn't looking where he was going and bumped straight into a first year who looked to Kevin as being in Ravenclaw and said to her "Sorry i was lost in world of my own are you ok?" Kevin held his hand out to help the girl to her feet

Laura, still wandering mindlessly along, was quite surprised when, with a bump, she found herself on the floor, with no idea as to how she go there.
"Wh-wha...?" she spluttered, looking up.Standing over her was a boy, not much older than her, and by the looks of it, a Slytherin.

"Erm...it's ok," Laura smiled, accepting his hand and the help back to her feet. "Hi," she said, beginning to straighten her robes. "I'm Laura."

Kevin smiled and said "Hello Laura its nice to meet you, i am Kevin"

Laura smiled back. "So kevin, what year are you in?" Laura asked. She guessed he was about a year or two older than her, and she was older for a first year, already twelve, whilst the rest were sill eleven

Laura scrutenised the boy carefully, she was sure she knew himfrom somewhere. MAybe she had just seen him around the castle, but...

WAIT!

Hadn't he been with Vicky that day in the Three Broomsticks? Laura was sure it was him, and yet she hadn't actually spoken to him, so wasn't sure...oh well.

Kevin smiled and said "I am in my second year Laura" Kevin was sure that he had seen Laura about somewhere but couldn't put his finger on it and plus he was wondering what was going on between him and Victoria he hadnt seen her in days

Second year, she knew it! Pausing, Laura cast around for a topic of conversation, but on finding non, she decided to figure out if it relly was him who had been with Victoria that day. Her curious nature got the better of her once again, and she blurted out; "Do you by any chance know my friend Victoria? She's a first year Ravenclaw?" she added, wondering how many Victorias there were at Hogwarts.

Blushing, Laura looked at her feet. What if it wasn't him, and she had just made a complete fool of herself? Pushing that thought out of her head, Laura rummaged in the pocket of her robes, and brought out a packet of BertieBotts Every Flavour Beans. "Want one?" she offered.

Kevin nodded and said "Yes i do know Victoria but i haven't seen her in a while cause i was serving detention for painting the first floor pink and gold, and sure i would love a bertiebotts every flavour bean"

Laura smiled. As he mentioned painting the corridor, she burst out laughing. "Why on earth would you want to paint the corridor?" she asked. She began to chew a Bean, and pulled a face; Onion, urgg!

"It's Vicky's birthday today." Laura continued, after swallowing the DE-SCUSTING! bean. "I haven't seen her all day and still need to give her her present!"

Kevin sighed and said "I have no idea what came over me that day but anyway it's in the past and plus i don't want to do a repeat cause the detention i served was plain awful, oh right i haven't seen Victoria about all day either i wonder where she could be hiding out" Kevin hoped that Victoria wasn't cheating on him in anyway possible

Laura looked at kevin. He seemed downhearted, and a bit worried. "I'm sure Vicky's fine." She said, although she wasn't even sure that this was what he was worried about. How close had Vicky been with him, anyway?

Offering the Beans again, Laura spoke. "Do you wanna go for a walk down by the lake, or something?" she suggested.

Kevin smiled at Laura and said "Sure a walk down at the lake would be good and yeah i know that Vicky's fine it's just i wonder what she has been up to i haven't seen her around for ages"

Making her way to the end of the Corridor, Laura waited for kevin to catch up and then went down to the lake.

Elizabeth grinned again as Robert responded to her teasing by rolling his eyes. "I think that would depend on which professor. Cause some of them don't seem too fond of explanations." She nodded as he reminded her of the free period. "Yeah. I do happen to remember that," she joked. Considering she had a free period too, which was the main reason she was there in the first place.

Lightly elbowing him as he teasingly pointed out that wandering was good, she then wrapped her arms around his. Looking up at him, she smiled. "I know that. I wander a lot, remember?" He knew her too well, given the last comment. But then he was talking to Torin, and she simply looked back toward the younger Huffie, curious how he'd respond.

He watched them feeling a bit awkward in the sense that he was intruding on their time together. But he didn't want to just leave them 'cause that was rude. And he wanted to talk to them anyway.

So he just waited.

And then the boy addressed him. "Thanks," he said to the compliment. "What's your name? And well, I'm glad to have you guys as roomies though I'm not happy to have lost my home. You Ravenclaws are good people from what I've seen." He was being totally honest here. A lot of his friends at this place were in that House.

Aaron walked out of the Hospital wing with Iris and Satine and started walking through the corridor. It was silent for a few moments before Aaron realized something.

"Hey guys," he said to his friends. "Where are we?" Aaron had no idea where he was. He had never been to the Hospital wing before this incident and was knocked out for the journey there. "Uh, i have no idea how to get back to the common room." He sure hoped Iris or Satine knew or they would have a problem.

Iris looked at Aaron, "the common room? Me niether, I've never been this way before now." She said, looking a little confused and lost. Iris looked round, trying to remember which way she came up to the hospital - she didn't know though... she wasn't paying attention to where she was going - her instinct found the hospital wing eventually, not her. "maybe if we try to just find the main staircase thing, the moving one, and we will find our way from there?" she asked, looking at them.

Aaron thought that was a good idea. "Yeah, let's do that." They kept walking down that one hallway, but it was really long. There were many paintings and doors and statues. Hogwarts is soooo cool.

Aaron thought they were doing pretty well looking for the main staircase... Until they reached an intersection. "Oh, this is fantastic." Which way were they going to go? They could get extremely lost at Hogwarts. "Which way now?" There were no windows. Aaron did not know how late it was. If they were in the corridor for too long, they might get in trouble.

Iris walked with Aaron and Satine (?) until they got to the end of the corridor.

"um... Up?" Iris asked in response to his question, "Well, both the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor/Slytherin Towers are on the seventh floor, which is the top floor, so once there are no more stairs then we know where we are." Iris said in an overly optimistic attitude. It was probably easier said than done.

Reid laughed joyously as Rachel dragged him out of the Hospital Wing, enjoying the feel of her hand in his. It was a perfect fit and he wouldn't change it for the world. "So your ankles feeling better then?" He asked, pulling her to a gentle stop, hoping that she wouldn't fall because of it. If she did he'd just have to catch her before she could get hurt.

If anyone had told her, just an hour ago, that her day would end up like this she would have sent them on the fast track to St. Mungo's and watched them go with a pitiful expression. As it were, Rachel couldn't be HAPPIER that her day was now like this, since she got to laugh and smile and be happy and be with Reid! Well, being with Reid basically summed up everything, but it was still nice to mention the other emotions. After all, she wouldn't want them to feel left out, right? Happiness and laughter and smiling and all those would be terribly angry with her...

ACK - she was insane. Ahh well . . . If insanity comes with all those in a package, she would take the deal any day.

Still grinning like an idiot, and still holding Reid's hand, the fifth year turned to face the boy as he asked his silly question. "What do you think? If it felt bad would I be able to do this?" she asked and began hopping from on foot to the other madly, almost looking like she was doing some sort of jig.

She giggled as he tried to calm her down, probably because he was worried. Ahh Reid - it suits him, to worry about nothing... "I'm fine - really! Although that MASSIVE bruise makes it looks as if I went head to head - or rather ankle to ankle - with someone," she added with a broad smile as she wiggled the nasty coloured ankle in front of her.

"I'm glad your alright." he hesitantly raised his left hand, stroking it along her right cheek. The touch was feather light, he was afraid that if he pushed too hard she would shatter and break into a million tiny pieces. He knew that was stupid but at the same time he couldn't help but to think of her in that way. He should probably work on amending that though due to the fact he was sure Rachel would take offence to being treated like she was breakable and needed protection.

"Just could we maybe stop the dragging because I'm afraid I'll fall if you continue to drag me places." Reid told her, placing emphasis on the words I'll fall. He was quite serious about that too, having stumbled once already on the short journey out of the Hospital Wing.
