That sounded like a lovely idea. Fyo was pretty sure Lissy would like Brody. They might even become friends. "Definitely," he said, with a quick nod and a happy smile. "I'll ask Brody, next time I see her."

"Not very nice," he laughed, when she said she would like to see another exhibit. Fyo did not like fights, and he hated when he had to get into them for some reason. Except, of course, when the reason was Lissy - could do pretty much anything for her, he could. But then he smiled, at her mention of the condition. "Should I guess?" He asked mischievously.

... and then he kissed her.

"Now let me get you a butterbeer," he asked, carefully standing up. He returned with two bottles, let her settle back into his lap, and handed hers over. "So... what was the condition, then?"

Bwaha.

Mina blushed a little. "Well, I hope I look pretty at least. I'm hoping to feel pretty in the dress too. Every girl should at feel pretty." she explained as she played with her cup. "Jason, you are like one of the two guys I can call my friends, of course I trust you silly. You are Carter mean the world to me."

Alice smiled, casually. "Okay, Fyo. I hope it will be helpful." She said and started playing with his fingers now. She will do anything for him. For her, amazing Lion. Without taking the smile off her face, she laughed along with him.

"Well..not nice. Yes. B'cuz the reason behind that was horrible one" she shivered slightly as memories flooded inside her head and fogging for few seconds. She had to shook her head to clear it off. Before she could open her mouth she felt his..

..his amazing lips against hers, kissing so sweetly. Wow! I told you he could read her mind so easily. Alice felt her birthday was fulfilled with his warm and adorable Kiss.

She blushed and kept blushing, not knowing when he got up and got them another set of butterbeer. B'cuz she had been in heaven again by the time he kissed her. She only got back her senses when he handed over the butterbeer. Man it was so chill. She jumped slightly and grinned sheepishly, "What? Oh..well.." she sturggled to cope up, "You've already fulfilled it"

Fyo is the best!

" Carter is in my house, roo, right?" Jason asked Mina. " Well, I am honored to be your friend" Jason told Mina. "Well, how about another butterbeer?" jason asked Mina. " You act very grown up for your age, but I already told you that already" Jason complimented Mina.

Mina nodded and smiled at the mention of Carter. " Yeah, you know plays on the quidditch team, first year and dating the girl from Slytherin." she teased a little. "Amazing guy like yourself. And yes another butterbeer would be nice, thank you." she answered looking at her cup. "Well, I'm the middle daughter and I spend a lot of time with my cousin. She treats me like an adult most of the time. I only act like a little girl with my other family. I'm young but it's surprising what I know." she explained to him. "And thank you, anyway little girls don't have as much fun as older girls."

Josh looked towards the direction where the Slytherin girls sat and discuss something like he had expected. ''Good point. That makes sense. How could i miss that detail? Mate, you'r genious'' he laughed and punched Carter's shoulder ''It's not so easy to make a Slytherin wear Gryffindor colours, is it? She probably dislikes colour red. You know red and green are contrast colours so usually if someone likes one its great possibility that the other would be disliked.'' he fell silent when he realised he was babbling useless nonsense again. ''Anyway that has nothing to do with the situation.'' he grabbed two of the butterbeers ''Let's get back to the table''

Evelyn frowned at Marilyn's tone of voice, and at what she said. Why in the world would she choose Carter if she liked Rafe this much?... "You and Carter aren't really 'fake' dating anymore, are you." she spoke as a fact rather than asked the Slytherin. After that, she sat in silence, just watching the girl sitting across from her. To like one, but like another as well...must be really hard. She was thankful she only liked one guy.

Which, by the way... Turning in her seat to glance at Carter and Josh, she noticed that they were about ready to head back over to the table. Taking a deep breathe, she faced Marilyn again, and started tapping the table at more of a slow paced rhythm this time. She wasn't going to press the girl any further for any more information, since at this point she didn't need to know anymore other than the gist of the story. "I hope everything works out for you Marilyn." Evelyn smiled to her, and then waited for the guys to join them.

Evan waved after Lyddia and Iris, though it could as well look like he was just waving after Lyddia. He smiled at her, and didn't bother to say anything to Iris for she had already left.

He looked a bit lost at Fallon, then remembered his random question. Right. "Then, shall we do it?" he asked as he got up and offered his hand to Fallon. It really had been a good party.

Sighing heavily, Marilyn said "Nope, fake dating ended. Carter told me how much he really liked me...and I like him." Even if this thing with Rafe got out of control. She felt horrible about everything...but Carter would know later. Marilyn wasn't much of a liar, not over something like this.

Marilyn glanced back when Evelyn did and noticed the guys making their way over. She gave Evelyn a grateful smile. It had felt nice to talk to someone about all the drama...Theraputic almost.

Carter laughed. He looked back at the girls that were both wearing Gryffindor red. They were two lucky guys. He grabbed the other two butterbeers and headed back to the table. He set one of them down in front of Marilyn. "Here's yours." he said. He sat his down in front of him and sat back down in his seat.

Marilyn gave Carter a small smile. "Thank you." She grabbed the handle, just to do something with her hands. Her nerves were shot, that much was obvious. When she got back to her dorm, the Slytherin was going to take a dreamless sleep potion her father had packed for her and sleep this whole mess away.

The very slight lines around Fyo's face hardened a little. He had tried his best to put that 'incident' to some little space in his mind that he could never stumble into - had, in fact, succeeded at that. But now that Lissy reminded him, he could not help reliving the memories. It didn't help that he and Torin were no longer very good friends, either. "Don't remind me," he said, rather quietly.... He didn't want to think of it.



Her words brightened him up. Really brightened him up. "Well, you set the same condition once before, didn't you?" He laughed, as he remembered the meal they had had, some days ago, at the Hufflepuff house table. He took a sip of butterbeer, then said, "You want to go to Honeydukes, after we've finished our drinks? We can't celebrate a birthday without chocolates!"

Cake, too. That was definitely essential!

Josh nodded and took the bottle as he followed him back to the table. Than sat beside Rose smiling at her like it was the first time he saw her today. He did not know what to do: to ask her out or not, tell her something about how he felt or not. He did not want to look pathetic or like an idiot. He thought admitting feelings did not make someone look idiot, however what he did not know how those girls would regard it. 'And mostly people consider themselves with other people's ideas. Like if someone says you are handsome and funny, you think you are handsome and funny; if they say you are pathetic and idiot, well, you may not believe you are pathetic and idiot but the idea of it remains inside. Yes, it does.' now he should have really stopped making his mind busy with thnigs like that. ''So girls. Enjoying the party?'' was there a party?

Awe. All the smile had vanished from his face. Now she could see some hardlines on his forehead. Not a good sign. You're a stupid Alice. She cursed herself for reminding him that incident and the sequels. Very bad Alice. "Sorry..Fyo." She apologized immediately for what she had done to him, well..sorta sutpidity.

She let out a relieved sigh when he got back his smile on his face. His face was brightened up. Alice nodded, "Yes, I did. And you know waht?" she grinned, "It's going tobe a new rule from now onwards.." she beamed as her chin raised up playfully. Realizing that she had had half of her butterbeer, well the second one, Alice sipped on her drink, "We can, but on one condition.." she laughed instantly and bit her tongue as looking at him, as pulling up a cute face.

" So you know Carter is dating a girl from Slytherin and I am sure you do not want him dating a girl from RavenClaw" Jason teased Mina. " I am really not amazing, I just try to be a freind to a lot of students in Hogwarts" Jason told Mina. " I telll you what, be an adult when needed , but do not lose your childlike ways because you will have a lot of fun" Jason explained to Mina.
Jason got their other butterbeers.

Nodding at what Marilyn said, she turned just in time to see Carter and Josh joining them again. And Josh looked, extremely happy. 'Guess they had a nice chat.' she thought, smiling right back at him before looking around like she was confused. "Party?" she asked, holding back a laugh but failing miserably. "Were we not invited?" Snickering a little, she shook her head and looked down at her hands. Were they enjoying themselves? Talking about relationships that are...messed up... "No, just kidding. Yea, it's... great." Possibly could have started out better, but now everything's good. So far that is. Staring at her scarf that was on the table for a moment, she scooted it closer, laying her hands on the soft material before looking up to Josh one more time. His smile was, different, today and she couldn't put her finger on what was so different about it, buuuut, who cares. She liked it, and just seeing him happy made her smile again.

Carter smirked. Josh was going to do it. He decided to give them a little privacy. "Come on Marilyn. Let's dance." he said pulling her away a few feet. He then gave an encouraging nod toward Josh and pretended not no be spying.

At first the Gryffindor boy stared at the Slytherin blankly when she asked if they were not invited. Maybe it was a Slytherin kind of sense of humour ''That's good.'' Then he laughed ''I thought you would do so.'' 'What to do next?' He was mentally working on the answer to that question when Carter suggested dancing to Marilyn...dance?. He needed not to be a genious to understand Carter was doing this to left him an opportunity to move as his nod confirmed He hoped Rose did not get a hint from this because he was not feeling ready yet. What was he going to say? He had not thought over this, yet. Though he knew he had to keep everything in control and look as confident as usually he did. ''Eh...'' he said once they were gone ''...so the term is ending.'' yes good point. He needed to buy himself some time to think of what to say.

So, Carter asking Marilyn to dance was slightly weird, seeing as you could barely hear the music. 'Is there any music?' Leaning her ear up for a moment, she tried to pick out any tune that may have been playing, but all the noisy conversations and such were just too loud. Eh, it didn't matter anyways. The two of them probably just wanted to be alone again seeing as they barely got the chance when they first came in here.

"Yea, the term is ending a little too quickly if you ask me." she laughed quietly, becoming nervous for some reason. "It seems like just yesterday we had the opening feast." And then they would be off to the train again on their way home. And she would have to wait a whole summer until she could see Josh again. Definitely didn't sound fun, even if she was having a few friends over for the summer.

''Yeah, the whole year has passed surprisingly fast'' Josh agreed on how quickly the summer time had approached. Summer was his favourite season but this year he was going to favour it less because he would not be able to see Rose for quite a time, which definitely was going to feel like forever, and as he had learned from the letter his mom finally sent he was supposed spend two months with that fatally annoying Psychologist guy Ryan who could make that period of time feel not only like forever but like a torture forever. He was nuts and actually needed treatment for himself. 'Anyway you can whine about him later on' now it was time to focus on Rose. ''But what is more surprising that i was not expecting to live that much things during a year here.'' he went on and moved closer to her ''I'll miss you...so much''

Marilyn's eyes widened at the word dance. The next thing she knew, she was being tugged towards an open stretch of floor only a few feet from their table...It was Carter's smirk that gave him away. "Its not hard to guess that Josh is about to ask Evie out. Hmm, about time." Marilyn said, mostly to herself. The was a moment of silence on her part before the giggles escaped her lips. "Carter, what does this remind you of?"

"Yeah, I convinced him to while we were getting drinks." Carter said looking over at the two. "We all knew it was bound to happen eventually. I don't think I've ever seen those two without each other." he said. Then Marilyn laughed and asked him what this reminded him of. He laughed too. "Potions." he said. "But this time I swear I won't make up a song." he said blushing a bit. "And I won't get on a table again."

Evelyn sat quite still in her seat, her hands in her lap and her eyes watching everyone and everything...except Josh. The sudden realization that they were alone at the table and nobody was paying the slightest attention to them was a little... Well she didn't know how she felt. Nervous? Alarmed? Content? Happy? Pretty much all of those at the moment. When he spoke though, about missing her, a memory sitting by the whomping willow with Destiny and Kylie came to mind. She was thinking the same thing then, about how much she would miss him.

Slowly turning her gaze to him, she watched him move closer, a small smile appeared on her lips, and her hazel eyes brightened even more. "I'll miss you more." she said quietly, though hoping it wasn't too quiet where he couldn't hear. Her smile disappeared though, as summer entered her mind unwillingly. They would write each other, all the time, right? It seemed like she just found him, and now he had to leave. Two months was, too long.

So he had noticed her mistake of words. She wasn't really paying much attention to what he was saying but more to her former best friend sitting just a few tables away, sigh she missed him. "Huh ? Oh yeah.. I knew that." she shrugged half turning her focus back to Blake. Excuse, Excuuuse she neeeded a Excuuse. Mental flail. "Uhh not much I just said in private cause your...friend is always there I never get my Blake time." she sighed. "She likes you yano. D'you like her?"

Jason races Shaylee to the Three Broomsticks. Hee beat her there. He waits for Shaylee patiently.
