Nate noticed a girl standing against the wall with her head in her hands. "Ummm...sorry to bug you but, Are you okay?" he was generally concerned for her. Nate felt like he needed to help her.

From her spot on the floor Brody could hear someone approaching, but it wasn't until the person spoke, that she looked up to see who it was. She really wished she hadn't. Her make up had run down her face, the mascara leaving black smudges on her cheeks.
But it was Miles, and she suddenly felt the tiniest bit better, at least it wasn't someone who hated her. She shook her head at his question. She couldn't answer the question, how on earth was she going to tell him what had happened?

Walking closer toward Brody he saw a boy standing further down that he hadn't noticed before and ignored him instead focusing on Brody. Seeing Brody shake her head, her makeup running down her face from crying he felt a pang of sadness and reached out to wrap his arms around her. "Hey now...what's wrong?" Surely Fia didn't do that. Something else had happened.

Brody hadn't noticed that someone else was in the corridor, until that someone had spoke. She looked at them, and smiled a little bit. It seemed someone in this castle cared. She shook her head at them, and then looked at Miles. She hoped this boy wouldn't be offended, but she needed her friend right now.

Brody was still looking at the other boy when she felt somebody's arms around her. She looked up and was comforted to find it was Miles. Without uttering a word, she buried her head into shoulder, feeling herself crying again. Eurgh. She didnt really want to mess up his shirt, she knew how hard make up was to get out. "Miles...i...." she coughed. Did she really have to say it? "I broke up...with him."

Miles sighed and held Brody tighter as she buried her head in his shoulder. "Shhh shhh." Rubbing her shoulder softly he comforted her and wondering what caused her to be this way when she said. "You...I'm so sorry Brody." Holding her he sighed and rested his head against hers, "Why did you break up with him though?"

A fresh set of tears had come with the words she had whispered to Miles, and she was quite glad that there weren't that many people on this corridor. She felt his head resting against hers, and she looked up at him, feeling slightly better, how was he making her feel better? "Why?" She repeated, swallowing hard. "So many reasons...." She cut off, she didnt want to say them but she knew telling him would make it easier. "So many girls like him." Jealous she was jealous. "He likes Professor Bunbury." How could she live up to that. "All his friends hate me and think Im evil." She cut off. That hurt the most. She had tried to hide it, but it was too much.

Nodding, he remembers reading about that. "Do you remember, how to find it?" Looking down the hall, he isn't sure even where it was in that corridor, though he knew it was in the 7th floor corridor.

Looking up and down the corridor both ways, he searches the wall, for some kind of a sign of where the door might be. "Isn't it a room that forms to what you want? What kind of room do we want?"

"Umm...I'm not sure. What kind of room do we want?" she said. Scrunching up her nose, she looked down the hall. According to the books she had read, the room only appeared when they absolutely knew exactly what they wanted.

Wondering to himself, he thinks about a place to relax, away from the crowds in the school. Even the common room, is normally so busy, he can't even think.

"What about a place to relax, with no one else." he asks her aloud. "It seems simple, and not really creative, but it would be nice to be alone for once. It seems everywhere we go, there's something going on, or someone nearby..."

Though he would be with Anya, that really didn't bother him. He felt everyone was watching them everywhere they went. It would be nice, to just be alone, with her. And not freezing like in the maze...

Anya sighed, that was perfect. "That would be nice. Just like the maze, just not freezing," she said, laughing at the memory. "Do you think it'll just appear? Or what?" Anya asked, scrunching up her nose.

Just her and JD. Quiet. Alone. She smiled to herself. With this, they could make their own common room, and go there all the time. Only her and her seeker.

Shrugging his shoulders, JD starts walking down the corridor again. Getting to the end of the hall, still thinking about that room that they could have peace, he turns back.

"I don't know. Everything I've read about it, it never really said how it works." Squeezing the hand, that he still held, gently he adds "We'll figure it out, I'm sure."

"All I know is it's on this wall...somewhere." he adds continuing down the hall, running his other hand along the blank wall.

next post in Room of Requirement?? :~)
 

As JD was looking along the other wall, Anya was concentrating hard on their room. Looking to her other side, she gasped, and squeezed JD's hand hard. "Look!" she whispered excitedly, "Its the Room of Requirement!"

Yep! ;o)
 

Spinning around when Anya gasped, JD feels concerned immediately, til he realized she was looking at a door. "Are you...Oh!" he exclaims, noticing the door, and what it meant.

"Shall, we take a look?" he asks excitedly.

Taking and reaching out, he turns the knob, and opens the door. Stepping in, him and Anya enter through the door.

Miles sighed and continued to sooth Brody as she started crying again. As she looked up and asked him a question he nodded. He wasn't going to push her to answer his question but she answered them anyway. "Well...I don't know about the first thing but the last..." he said looking at her with a smile. "You're not evil. You've always been nice to me. Even when I have run into you literally," a small smirk played on his lips in hopes to cheer her up.

Pulling away a little, Brody wiped her tears, hoping she wouldn't cry anymore. She looked silly, and she wan't meant to look silly. What Miles said to her, made her smile, like she used to. So he didnt think that she was evil? She was sure everyone else did. "Thats very kind of you to say Miles." She coughed a little. She was feeling a little bit better now. Then she was suddenly reminded of waht had happened before. Oh deary me. "Miles...about before.."

Miles smiled as Brody pulled away and dried her eyes. 'Well...it's true.." Bringing his hands down to his side he leaned against the wall. "No...leave it." He didn't particularly want to get to THAT discussion. "I'm sorry for the way Fia acted." And that was that. He'd deal with the rest of that later. Much later.

*shifty*
 

"Not many people would agree." Brody commented sadly, as she wiped the back of her hands across her cheeks, hopefully the smudged make up had come off. She was quite sure once news spread of her breaking up with Torin that she'd be able to count her friends on one had. It was not a nice prospect.
She looked up at him. He didnt want to talk about that? Oh. "No...I was out of control." She shook her head, frowning a little.

Curiouser and Curiouser
 

"Yeah everything, i guess. Um...I just wanted say i'm sorry about lately. It's pretty crazy. New everything and dad, I just didn't know exactly what to do." she began babbling apologetically."And about freaking out when...do you remember what kind of flower Artimus brought to you?" she asked slowly, eyes reaching up to look at Carter's expression.

"Yeah. I understand." Carter said looking at her with understanding. "I'd be going through a lot if that happened to me too. And I know what it's like to be busy. It seems like I've been living and breathing nothing but quidditch for awhile. But, I'll have a lot more time since the match is over... and since that crazy healer woman is back I won't be in the hospital wing anymore." he said. "But I have missed seeing you around." he said with a smile. She then asked about the flower Artimus dropped on him. "Oh. Was that on purpose?" he asked a bit confused.

Ooc: Okay...so since Miles and Fia were following shoe girl out of the Great Hall I'm afraid we're gonna have to move this so I can continue that. Just go with it :)

Miles shrugged and watched as he wiped her cheeks again, "Well most people aren't very bright either." He chuckled slightly and then pushed off the wall. Why wouldn't she drop it? Grabbing her hand he led her toward the stairs to go outside, "Look...let's talk about this away from prying ears alright." That's the last thing he needed was nosy Ravies implying more than was there.

Tori shifted uneasily infront of Carter,"Um, yeah, it kinda was." She took a deep breath and continued, "Well she was trying to tell you something. Something, I couldn't tell you. Even my owl has better communication skills than I do." Tori joked, scratching her reddening ears."Uh..." she started fading into her own words quickly. She bit her bottom lip hoping to catch anymore 'get-away' words.

*waiting and wondering*
 

This was taking WAYYYYYYYYYYY too long. Both Fia and Miles wanted to know what seemed to be in the boxes that both Mercer and the Slytherin girl were carrying. They witnessed them leave the Great Hall with boxes and well...when there were nosy kids, they were going to wait for an answer. They decided to wait out of the way of anyone's eyes and watch the Ravenclaw common room door, but it seemed FiFi was now out past her bedtime. She yawned silently and closed her eyes.

Fia was almost asleep, when she heard the door to the common room open again. She slowly opened her eyes as she was afraid that it was someone else that was of no importance to her at the moment, but she was wrong. Quietly, she nudged Miles next to her to let him know that Mercer was in site...and with the right footwear on. NO HEELS!
