Torin couldn't believe that this Term was almost over and he had hardly even been here. It was a crime really. Stupid OWLs were messing with his time here and making him bored.

And then he saw her. Upstead.

He made his way over to her, ending up standing behind where she was sitting on the bench. He saw that she had a piece of paper on her lap. He bent forward and read what the visible part said. "Who's Ryan?"

Where was that darn pen?

Reese remembered throwing that pen inside her back before leaving the common room earlier. It was just lost...inside her back...where all her other junk was. Gah! She KNEW what she was doing this summer - cleaning out her purse. Yep. For all she knew, there was probably 50 galleons at that bottom of that purse that she forgot about, which actually might not be possible, but who knows? After spending several minutes digging through her purse, she finally pulled out a pen and smiled. There it was!

After closing her purse, she turned back to the letter sitting on her lap. Now, how was she going to complete this letter? The girl was about to unfold the letter until she heard a familiar voice coming from behind her. "It's..." Reese was about to say that Ryan was her brother until she noticed who had asked the question. Oh, so TORIN wanted to know who Ryan was? "It's a guy," she answered. "And, he lives in London and he's a very nice guy." She nodded her head as she spoke.

Oh, so Reese wanted to be evasive now. Probably because he hadn't told her who his girlfriend was. But he had enjoyed not telling her, so he wasn't regretting doing it now. And he had other ways to try to get it out of her.

He hopped over the back of the bench and landed beside her.. rather ungracefully. He actually almost fell off and landed on the ground. But he managed to save himself more embarrassment.

He pulled himself up in the bench and turned to look at her. "I figured that he was a guy." Well DUH, Reese. Resisting the temptation to just grab the letter and just read it right there, he tried another strategy. "Wanna play 20 Questions?"

He was oh so tempted to look, but he couldn't invade her privacy. He respected her too much for that.

Jason walks onto the main street. He hopes to find new friends or re-connect with old freinds.

Reese slowly shook her head when Torin hopped over the back of the bench and landed beside her in an ungraceful fashion. There were so many things she could have said about what just happened, but instead, she kept her mouth shut. The little smile on her face could have probably said more than words could right now. Right, now back to that letter...

Once again, she was about to open the piece of paper until Torin asked if SHE wanted to play TWENTY QUESTION. "Twenty question," she repeated. What was with Torin and Whit liking this game? The Slytherin thought. "I guess we can play," she answered. True, she did tell Whitney a few days ago that she was bad at this game, but she wasn't going to be the one asking questions, so she won't fail too badly. Answering questions was the easy part!

Okay, this was good. She was willing to play. And he might be able to lure her into a sense of false security before asking her something that would make her tell him who Ryan is. "Okay, you can start first. Ask me something then I'll ask you something."

Hold it, wait just one second. "I thought 20 questions was where you ask 20 questions to figure out what you're trying to figure out," Reese said. "I didn't know I was suppose to ask questions. Like, seriously, what am I suppose to ask? I thought I was suppose to answer questions!" Psssssh. Torin did NOT know how to play twenty question. Maybe Whitney could just appear out of nowhere and teach the Hufflepuff the rules of the game.

He shook his head at her. Silly Reese. "Supposedly that's true. But not in my version. In my version people ask random Questions about each other." If she didn't want to play it with him, she was just plain mean.

"In your version? Wow, Torin Kane as his own version of twenty questions? Funny. Very funny," Reese replied. "But, I guess since I said I would play, we can play your version. So, all I have to do is ask random questions that involve you? Well, hmmm, let's see..." She ran her finger along the paper sitting on her lap as she thought of a few questions that she could possibly ask the Hufflepuff. "Okay, I got one," she announced.

She paused for a second just to add in the suspension. "So, Torin Kristopher Kane, I would like to know what your favorite summer activity is?" She asked.

He smirked at her proudly. What she didn't know is that he was just making this all up in order to trick her. 'cause she wouldn't have told him the truth if he had tried the normal method. This way he might be able to figure it out by asking random questions. "I'm awesome. That's why I'm also getting my license at 16 instead of 17."

He became thoughtful at her question. Favourite summer activity. "Does partying count? 'cause if so it's that."

Now it was his turn. "What's your favourite book?"

License? Did Torin just say he was getting a LICENSE?! "You are getting a muggle license to drive a muggle car? Oh, come on! Wizards and witches can apparate; they don't need cars," Reese said. "But, I really shouldn't be the one talking right now." She was actually hoping to get a car or something once she graduated, because honestly, apparating was going to get old sooner or later, right? This girl surely wasn't planning on apparating everyday once she got her license, because apparating made her way too dizzy at times!

Reese wasn't too sure if partying counted, but oh well, she would let that be his answer. "I'll let partying count," she replied.

Hm. Favorite book? She wasn't too sure about this one. "I think I would have to say my favorite book is Hogwarts, A History," she answered. "I mean, I've only read a few books that weren't textbooks in my 17 years of living. So, I really don't know if I even have a favorite book. I do like Hogwarts, A History, though. It's interesting even though I've only read it like once or twice." Okay, mooooooving on.

"Torin. Torin. Torin," she repeated his name. "How many of my shoes do you hate?"

Pfft.

"Apparation... I dunno about that. I like cars. Muggle transportation is the best." So much better than Floo Powder. And he didn't want to accidentally splinch himself if he went for the Apparation test. Not that he would ever let Reese know about that. She would just laugh at him in all likelihood. That's what he would have done.

"You are such a nerd..." Hogwarts a History? Is she serious? Though he had to admit that he hadn't even opened that book. He had more important things to study. Namely things for school.

Her question was easy. "99%," he replied without a moments hesitation. "What is your favourite memory?"

"I can't disagree with that," Reese answered. "I do like muggle transportation a lot." That was the truth.

She shook her head. "I'm not a nerd," she rejected. "Do you know how many OWLs I got? Five. FIVE OWLs. That's really bad, isn't it? I would think if someone was a nerd, they would have gotten more OWLs than that." Like Torin was going to do... Torin, hopefully, would get more than 5 OWLs and not give up, just like her, after getting a complete headache after her fifth one. And, guess what? If Torin got more than 5 OWLs, his new nickname was going to be Mr. Nerdy Greek Boy. It would be quite fitting for him.

Reese was hurt by that comment. HURT. She was thinking Torin would say at least half of them, but no, he had to say 99% of them. Torin Kane was a meanie! She crossed her arms without commenting on that answer and she listened closely as Torin asked his next question. Hmmmm. Favorite memory? Oh, this was a tough one. The girl sat there for the longest thinking back of all the fun stuff that has happened in her life until she finally thought of something that made her smile. "Okay," she said. "My favorite memory happened a few years ago at one of the party's at my godmother's house. Allie and I decided to ride down the staircase on a mattress and, to be honest, it was quite fun. I don't mind doing it again one day."

"So, Torin, what...um...do you plan on doing after you graduate? Still planning on that bakery?" She asked him.

Jack wandered into town, thankful to get away from studying for a while. Now, where to go first....

" Hi, I am Jason Potter Weasley." he told the boy. " You look tired" Jason said to him.

Avery walked down the street alone.
