| | Room of Requirement
You're searching the castle for a mysterious room you have heard of called The Room of Requirement. You have searched every nick and cranny of the castle but still no room. You climb the stairs to the seventh floor and come across a stange tapestry showing Barnabas the Barmy trying to teach trolls to dance the ballet. You laugh at the silly tapestry until you side almost burst. Then you remember hearing the Room is located opposite such a tapestry. You turn around expecting to see a door, but find a blank wall instead. You start walking back and forth three times concentrating hard on what it is you need. Suddenly a door appears. You open it and discover you have found the Room of Requirement... |

Helena put the empty goblet back down and then narrowed her eyes playfully at him as he laughed. What's so funny? she asked skeptically, leaning forward to rest her head on her hands and survey him through her blue eyes.

"You." Chris told her truthfully. "I just thought it was kind of funny to watch your cheeks get all red and it was kind of..." He stopped himself. He was going to say cute but nah-ah he wasn't going to tell her that. "It was just funny." He said. Mel would not be happy with him right now. He felt slightly mean but she wasn't there and how much longer would she be around anyways???

| what the crap??!! XD ♫ ♥ Where are my garters?! / hyphens-are-cool / THE NORTH GATE ♥ ♫
Helena frowned still further, not taking her intent (and now light brown) eyes off of him. Kind of.... what, exactly? This was very amusing to her, trying to find out what he was up to. Was he feeling some of what she was? After all, he hadn't been upset when she had kissed him the day before.... but she wouldn't let herself think about that.
ooc: have to go finish up some homework. might be on later. if not, night.

Errr. He couldn't lie to her it was her birthday. Chris sighed and looked back at Lena. Did she really want to know??? It sure looked like she did. "It was kind of cute. Alright I said it. I think that when you blush it's cute." He told her truthfully. Yeah okay he felt sooo embarressed at that moment. Why should he be embarressed he was just saying how he felt anyways. And she was the one who kissed him yesterday sooo she must still have some feelings for him too. And everytime he held her hand Lena never pulled back...

Helena blinked, trying to make her brain work and process this information. Oooookay then. Uhhh.... thanks, I think, she said uncertainly, sitting up once more and still thinking rather hard. What was going on lately? She kissed Chris. He had been holding her hand. She didn't pull back. And now she was cute? And she was blushing around him?? It was happening all over again.... she was falling for him.

Grahhhh! Chris stood up and turned away from Lena. He walked over to the wall making sure not to step on the little Remy who was still on the floor. He leaned on the wall and didn't look at Lena. "As you said yesterday this can't happen not now." He said sinking down to the floor and resting his head on the wall behind him and pulling his knees up to his chest. "Why does all this have to be confusing?" He wondered out loud.

Helena watched as Chris stood up; she hadn't been smiling in a few moments, but her face fell even further as he walked away from her and even more as he spoke. Why did they have to get into this now? Why could she not have a happy bubble for more than a few hours without it being interrupted??
Lena looked away from him, her eyes falling on nothing in particular as she rested her chin in her hands. Nothing's happening, Chris, she said, finally looking back at him even though she might not have been being truthful with him, depending on exactly what he meant. And it doesn't have to be confusing. She could walk away right then.

Grahhh!!! Yes he knew he was going to do something to mess this up. But he was sooo over reacting and he knew it. "Sorry." He mumbled and looked back to at Lena. He did feel bad. "I over reacted and I know and..." He faded off at the end. Not knowing what to say. "If you want I could just leave you alone." He suggested to her.

Noooo! Aaaargh! Lena quickly went over and sat beside Chris, putting her arm around his shoulders. There's nothing to be sorry about.... you haven't done anything wrong. And there's no way you're leaving on my birthday, she said, giving him a weak smile and one-armed squeeze. Please don't be mad, she prayed.

Chris watched as Lena came over and put her arm around his shoulder. He tried to smile to her with no use. "Okay okayyyy I guess I will stay if you really really want me too." He said as he felt Lena give him a tight squeeze. Though he couldn't help but to feel bad but wasn't going to show it. He didn't want this to happen anymore. He just wanted everything to be simple and noooo more drama!

Helena smiled comfortingly at him where he couldn't and relinquished her arm from his shoulders, feeling a slight emptiness as she did so and doing her best to ignore it. Good, she said, leaning back against the cool stone behind her with a sigh. It was probably nearly lunch time and she was getting a bit hungry....

Chris this time did smile back. He felt Lena let go but he didn't want her to. Yet he wasn't going to tell her that. He nodded when she said good. And also rested his head back. But then he noticed he was hungry. He turned and looked at Lena. "Are you as hungry as I am?" He asked and chuckled slightly.

Helena laughed - they were much too alike for their own good. Yes, I am, she admitted with a small grin before holding out her hand palm up. Shall you away me to lunch, then, Mr. Kaplan? she asked with a twinkle in her bright blue eyes that loved to make spectacular, unprompted appearances.

"Well good then." Chris said smiling but then saw Lena holding out her hand palm up. He took her hand and stood up still smiling down to her. "Yes I shall Miss. Crawley." He said and gave her a little bow and a wink. He was still hold her hand. But he saw those bright blue eyes seem as if they twinkle. That blue was quickly turning into one of his favorites. He liked the purple still but he wasn't quite sure what that meant where the blue he did.

Helena gave a very appropriate girlish giggle as Chris winked and stood up. Off to the Great Hall then, Mr. Kaplan! she said exuberantly with a grin, keeping her hand in his; she didn't know if she could remove it even if she wanted to, and she definitely didn't.

Chris smiled wide to Lena's girly giggle. "Yes." He said. But wait! What about Remy? "Okay you've only had the little guy a few hours and you are already forgetting about him?" He asked sighing dramticly as he let go of her hand and picked up the pygmy puff. He walked back over and handed him to her and took Lena's other hand once again. "Now I think we are ready to go." He said chuckling.

Oh no! She did forget about him! Lena's mind was too preoccupied on.... other things. But she didn't show this. Instead she looked outraged. Forget my precious Remy? she asked in mock disbelief. Never. I was just about to pick him up, she said with a grin as she reaccepted her new pet and placed him carefully in her left hand, allowing Chris to regrab her right. Yes, let's go, she agreed, smiling once more.
ooc: Gryff table?

Grinning evily, she stood on her tip toes, so that she could get closer to his height. She leaned in, and gently kissed his neck, then leaned into his ear, and whispered, "You tell me."
Two could play this game. Ryder smiled. She was going to make him say it. However, to come out and say, "yeah babe, we're a couple" would sound cheesy and lame. So, he would have to come up with something a little more clever. "Well, you're asking me to tell you something that you clearly already know, otherwise you wouldn't want me to tell you. So, I could tell you what you want to hear but then I would sound like a cheesy lame boyfriend and well....I'm not cheesy." |

Of course he had to say it in his own special witty jerk like way, but thats what she liked most about him. Simone's simle could have melted the sun, it was so radiant. She looked down but only for a moment. "No you are not cheesy. Something I greatly appreciate." She winked.
She then stood onher toes again, so that she could give him a gentle peck on the lips. "So, boyfriend, what are your plans for christmas break?" She gave him a small smile, and was of course still standing on her tip toes.

Either way, guess you better get used to it." He laughed and sat down on the floor. Once he got comfortable he grabbed her hand and sat her on the floor next to him.
He hadn't really thought about his Christmas plans. "Well, the parents cancelled their annual ski trip to Switzerland. Which will be the first Christmas we spend together in several years. So I guess I'll be with them...much to my disappointment. But maybe you can liven things up by coming over for dinner one night. I know they won't mind." |

Simone sat where he pulled her down next to him on the floor. She was too happy at the moment. Though her feet were starting to hurt in her ballet shoes. She pulled on the ends of each bow on each foot and untied them. That was a bit better.
Oh...she forgot about her family's annual ski trip to Utah. Well...she would just have to skip it. She skipped it for the three years she was at Beauxbaton's. They wouldnt miss her this time. "Well I think I'm going to skip out on my family's annual ski trip this year. I'll stay at my Aunts, and use the Floo to come visit, unless of course you dont want me too. I dont want to be presumptious." She bit her lip and blushed.

The parents can be a little...well, let's just say you've heard my stories. They aren't the nicest diamonds at the store." Ryder was wondering what a dinner would be like with her and his family. The last girl he brought over was moved to tears within minutes. She broke up with him before dinner began. "I would try and coach you on their mannerisms but they are completely transparent. You're smart. You'll see for yourself." |

I will be on my best behaviour." She wanted his parents to like her, but she knew they wouldnt just because of her heritage. She was a halfblood afterall. His parents were pureblood to the extreme.
She thought about it for a moment. "Well...I might need a little coaching now that I think about it. How are we going to get around me being halfblood? You know that will be a major issue." She paused for a moment and thought. "To be honest, I want them to like me. But I really dont care if they dont. Despite what they think...your the one I want to be with and the cant stop me." She was slightly angry now. Yay for passion! Their tango would be really fun now....

Raven finally managed to get into the Room of Requirement, even though she had been at this school only since September, she nearly managed to get both her and Andi lost; at least they managed to avoid many of the dead ends in the corridors.
"Welcome to the Room of Requirement, I come here when I'm not busy in the dungeons planning trouble." She commented with a slight grin, this room was just so peaceful.

Okay, so confuzzling was a gross understatement! This school was ridiculously megas confuzzling! They'd almost got lost a few times, before Raven finally worked out where she was going. They eventually got there, and Andi was astounded at the place.
It was prety wicked. She looked around at all the posters on the walls, the brooms scattered around the place. "It's great," she murmured. "Cosy."
