ooc: I'm going to kind of change it up like they met again, because recently Rafe is under the influence of a love potion. This should be funny.

Rafe was in a daze he was staring off at the ceiling, he couldn't keep his mind of her. Why wasn't he with her now? His eyes were all dreamy and sappy.

"Oh...were you talking?" Rafe said as he looked at Arianna. "You're voice is nothing compared to my Lucy's!" Rafe could picture her golden hair and sparkling blue eyes. He sighed deeply. "Oh, I hope you and Theo will be as happy and in love as me and my Lucy! She is a goddess and I am a mere mortal that worships her!"

ooc: oh-em-gee, this is going to be totally fun.

Arianna head snapped up and she frowned at Rafe " What on earth-" she began, but she quickly stopped. What was all that babbling about, his love? Lucy? WHAT?! How did he change his mind so fast, just the other day he wasn't even sure he liked her, now he worships her?!

"What are YOU talking about?! What's all that about you worshipping Lucy, just the other day you said you weren't sure if you wanted to date her at all!" she tilted her head and observed his face. He looked completely dumbfounded. " What did she do to you?!"she exclaimed in horror. Images of brainwashing were sweeping through her mind.

Arianna felt like slapping him. He wasn't clearly in his perfect mind. In what world would Rafe refer to Lucy or any girl, as an angel sent down from the heavens or waltz an invisible Lucy around the room. She would have tried slapping him, but what if this was Rafe completely and truly in love? How could she ever say anything to spoil his happiness if that was the case?

"Well I think it's wonderful you're so happy...Lucy" she gave it a try and laughed hysterical, she didn't know exactly why but there was something making her uncomfortable " So how did this happen, when did you guys get together officially ?"

"I'm ecstatic!" Rafe said as he sat up and shook Arianna a little by the shoulders. "I feel like I am on top of the world!" Rafe laid his head in Arianna's lap. "It just happened last night, but it feels like we've been together for a lifetime! We went to Puddifoot's and had coffee, and next thing you know, I was overwhelmed with love. Why was a so blind? It was like seeing for the first time and I knew I loved Lucy and we should be together forever!"

Arianna's mind clicked. They went to have coffee and he felt madly in love. She looked into Rafe's face in horror. He was like daydreaming she must have slipped a love potion into his drink!

"OH MERLIN!" she exclaimed not sure what to do, maybe she should take him to the potions master " Do you want to come with me to Professor's Kazimeriz's office?" she tried to suggest.

"Is that where Lucy is?" Rafe said cheerfully. "I will only go to where my Lucy is! Actually...I'm going to go see those Quidditch players, Kizzie and Emma. Though they're not as beautiful as my Lucy, they're still excellent players! I got them gift baskets to show my apprectiation! And wait til you see what I have in store for Lucy!" Rafe was on his feet. He hadn't realized all the work he had to do!

"Wow, time flies! I've got to go to the tent! I'm sure my Lucy, my love, my life-long companion will be there! Please meet me there!" And without another word Rafe was out behind the mirror singing a happy tune and went to the tent.

Melanie shook her head in disapproval. What was going on with these boys?! She left the mirror as soon as she gathered her things.

So, a last walk around would not hurt, would it?

Emiliano was surely going to miss the castle, the professors, everything that meant Hogwarts. He still didn't want to leave. Though it was a bit late; it was June, end of the year and his time at Hogwarts. Sigh...

So many memories were brought along this walk. His little yet fun times at the Room of Requirement with Karma, having met Piper and even having that confusing moment of his sentimental life, his friends: Lima, Whit, Reese, Chris, Lena...and the ones he met the present year. He felt that everything had been done. He learned, and had fun doing so.

His wandering led to the room where the mirror was kept at. Em knew that mirror was the cause of many loonatics around the school for some times, so he just kept his distance from going to take a glance at it.

Or would he hold his anxiety?

Chris was walking around the castle. And boooooy was he upset. Lena his girlfriend was spending her summer with Blake.....And he couldn't do anything about that one. Plus he wasn't to happy that the term was ending shortly. Sighhhh this wasn't goood.

He walked into the with the mirror thingy. He had only been in here once or twice but he didn't think anybody else would be in here. Though to his suprise he found Emiliano. Ahhh yes! Good he just need to talk to somebody who wasn't Helena right now. Though he wasn't mad with her he was just.....freaking out.

"Hey Saenz. How have you been?" He asked his friend as he walked over to him. Chris was just noticing that he had only seen Emiliano a couple times this term.....humpf that kinda sucked.

Emiliano was sitting at the staircase nearby when he suddenly heard someone call his last name. He looked up and saw Chris. Oh boy he looked kind of upset? Oh well, he might talk about it or not...who knows what he was up to.

"Hey, mate...how are you?" He asked him, synchronized with Chris's question.

How weird, being seventh years and all, they had only seen each other just a few times. Hmmm....and the last one, he was that close to ask about his exgirlfriend, the one who died...Melinda was her name?

"Err...I guess surviving and taking a glance around this castle, before..." He stopped.

Chris noticed how Emiliano just skipped over his question to ask him the same one. Sighhh tricky Em very very tricky. "Ummmm I've been alright I guess you could say." He said with a small sigh. "Life has not been easy lately." He said softly.

Chris then he heard Em say about how he was looking around the castle. "I know it. I'm not ready to leave this place either. And it's kind of not fair to you. You only had three years here." He said. "So do you know what you are doing after you leave?" He asked leaning on the near by wall.

"Something wrong going with Lena?" Yes, Em knew all about the relationship they now had, but recieved no updates on how they got along for a long time. As it seemed, Chris was a bit upset about what had happened this year. "...and I'm sorry about...Melinda..." He said, for the first time, not really sure of what his reaction might be.

"Yeah, I know. This place holds inside my worst moments and yet, the most wonderful..." EEeh, he now had that drooly expression, of course he was thinking about Karma. Uff! Em rested his head on the palm of his hand, as he twirled his wand against the floor.

Then that question came. What would he do after he finished Hogwarts. "Umm...well, I have something planned and fixed; I will go study Muggle Business Laws to America. Di might come along, though she's to stay here with Annie, my cousin..." Once mentioned, that girl made Em smile. She was going to be the lucky lady next term to be there, at Hogwarts.

"How about you?" He asked Chris...wondering what he might do after all this...that had been going on.

How did Emiliano know about him and Lena????? Welll probably because they were together allllllll the time! "You could say that. Long story short she is going to this summer camp with this guy who she is really really good friends with. But they kind of liked each other more than friends awhile ago. And I still think he does." Chris told Em. But then woah did he just bring up Melinda. Chris froze at her name. "Thanks." He said softly. "How did you find out?" He asked curiously.

"Yeah I totally know what you are saying. You really love Karma don't you?" He asked just by the expersion on Em's face.

Wait did he just say America!!!!? "Where in America?" Chris asked kind of excited. "Business Law eh??? That sound interesting." He said nodding. "Ummm I'm also going to America to be a musican." He said. Big shocker there.....

Eep! Best friend against couple. Cough, that had happened to Em once, but it made him figure out that he loved Karma more than anyone. "Yeah, I kind of understand you, mate..." Emiliano said, shaking his head once, twice...maybe more than ten times...It was more than difficult to forget those times. He just hoped Chris had a way to deal with it, and wondered why Lena was still going out with the other guy...Confussions...Love. ARgh!!!

LMAO. "Of course I do...though I just, don't know what will happen now that we are going to be apart all this time." He said, letting out a sigh. "I'm going to New York's Law School..." He answered at once. "Dad mentions it as the best school, made me look through brochures and all, and I agreed...I don't think I fit too well in the Magic World for now..." He commented, letting out a chuckle.

Not a big surprise it was for Em that Chris was going to be a musician. "And where are you going to?" He asked him. Maybe they could do a bit of gathering from time to time, if school ever let Em...

Chris just nodded to Em. "The worse part about this whole thing is it's a boys camp they are going to. But I will just have to trust Lena." He said with a small sigh. "It's just I'm still really freaked out about Melinda." He said softly.

"I know it's hard to be away that long. That was like Mel and I. She was in France and I was here." He said. And this was now the first time in a long time he was thinking about these memories again. "She said she was going to come with me to America because she didn't want to be far apart anymore." He said quietly.

"Wait so your going to be in New York? Me to actually." Chris said and chuckled slightly. "Wow that's alittle weird. We will have to meet up now and then. Though I really don't know how much time I will be in New York. All deponds on my agent." Yeah Chris was cool he had an agent and he now looooooved to talk about it. Though he was sighed with any big record companies yet he was hoping soon that would happen as well.

"Trust her...it's part of having a relationship nowadays...and it has always been." Emiliano said, nodding his head.

And time to say how he found about Melinda. "And answering to your question a while ago, I got to know about Mel...because Diana sent me a newspaper from Paris, announcing the funeral and the note about how it had happened." Sure, it was something to be freaked out about. Then, he heard Chris talk about Melinda. "I'm sorry, bud..." He sighed.

"Well, I'll just send up an e-mail..." There he was, talking Mugglish. LOL. "...and I'm sure I'll be hearing from you and your band soon, because you do have a band, right?" What a question, but his curiousity was inifinite. :P

"Yeah I know I have to trust her." Chris said nodded as he slid on to the floor to sit down. He rested his arms on top of his knees though he still looked at Emiliano.

"Ohhh. That would make sense. I didn't even look in the papers. It was just to hard. And then to read it in black and white." He just shook his head. He couldn't do not now and he really couldn't have done it a few months ago. "Hey it was a freak thing. She was dieing anyways." He said looking away from Em and gulped slightly.

Chris then laughed when Em said he would e-mail him. "Oh alright buddy. And I do know what that is. My father is muggle-born so I have some family who are muggles. But you better actually send me one now." He warned. "Yeah I've got a band. Just a bunch of friends who I've grown up with but are amazing." He said with a smile.

"I understand you, bud. It's hard to let go...and it's been a very short time. It actually surprised me that you were going out with...Lena." Em had paused a bit, he was a bit shocked, still. And more shocked could he be with his answer. "Wait...how you say that? Why was she dying `anyways`?" Em was confused.

Oh, that made him let out a sigh of relief. Most of the time, Em had to explain all the ways he communicated with his family from across the world.

"That's amazing!" Em was glad for Chris. He seemed to at least have some, notice of what could be happening in a few years.

"I know everybody is shocked. Really it was anything I had every planned on doing. I never would have thought to be dating Lena. But it just happened. And I don't even know how it just seemed to fall into place though it happened all wrong. I loved Melinda and I was going to marry her at some point. But that was all taken away from me and I've known Helena so long and we are just so close......" Chris said and it was all he could say. He didn't know how to explain them getting together he just couldn't.

Then Em asked that question how Mel was dying. "Melinda had a bad heart. She always had and then in the past few months that she was alive it was getting very bad. Like she would just keep passing out. The doctors said she only had years to live. And Mel was going to get a heart transplate when she, her cousin and her cousin's husband died in that car crash. So she actually would have been alive longer then the doctors had told her probably if she didn't get into that crash....." Chris said all this softly. The last time he explained all this was to his family. Helena hadn't even heard all of this....

"Yeah it is." Chris said smiling. "So Business Law eh??? What are you planning on doing after you go to school for several more years???" He asked Emiliano curiously.

Oh wow. The boy had plans. And the whole Lena thing just bursted into the right moment, then? Em was clear on his thoughts now, listening to Chris talk about Melinda's bad heart. That was really weird, she could have been cured somehow. Right? Or not.

"Ouch..." It was all Emiliano could say at such story, such drama coming from his friend's personal life. "...well, I'm glad you found Lena in time, I mean...it's hard enough to go through the death of a loved one and be alone to face it..." He patted Chris' back and looked around.

"I'm planning to come back to England afterwards, or study master courses. It depends...but mostly, I want to come back and promote some of the clothing mom designs and it's made in Mexico, so..." He was explaining the whole thing over and over, he had grown a bit tired. Sorry...

"How about you? Planning to come back to England?" Emiliano asked.

"Yeah it's not really a fun loving story." Chris said and shrugged slightly. "Yeah I am too. That was our feeling on it. That this was probably a good thing for both of us. If I didn't have Lena I don't know what I would do. I would have probably just have up." He said. It's true Lena is probably the only reason he did so well with this whole thing.

"Oh cool. Yeah I would love to come and live in London. I mean my whole band as lived in Bulgaria our whole lives so we don't really want to be back there. But we don't want to be living in America away from family. So London seems like a good spot to be." Chris explained. "I didn't know your mom desighs cloths." He said kind of interested. Not many parents did that for a living.

Mirror! Eeeee!

Alice was half-excited and half-nervous. What if the mirror showed something she didnt expect. What if the mirror was wrong. But she knew there was no chance for it. Gathering up her half-gone courage back, Alice made her way towards the mirror without blinking even once.

She could hear her own heartbeats now. Lup tup..lup tup..

Shana was wandering around aimlessly as usual whn she suddenly came upon the mirror. She spotted Alice an decided to walk over. She smiled before waving at Alice. "Hey Alice. How've you been ?" she beamed again.

"Hey Shan!" Alice waved back with a relieved smile. God..she got a company, now she could keep herself calm. "I'm doing awesome. How about you? I've not seen you for ages?" she stood there to Shana join her.
