Uh, shoulder... Evan didn't know that, for no one ever tried to hit with his shoulder. If no one hit, it wasn't allowed, was it? "I don't think so." he said after a pause. "Besides, it'd be hard to hit with your shoulder." Not mentioning that you couldn't direct the ball with your shoulder, and it could easily be mistaken with the arm. She'd better not hit with her shoulder.

Now that she accepted watching with him, maybe he should warn her that some bad words might slip through his mouth. "Um, just for your information..." he talked looking at the ground again. How would someone say that he could go wild while watching a game to someone with no knowledge? Better to talk about rivalry first. "There is a huge rivalry between Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal." He would go excited in other games too--every game had its own excitement, but he decided not to explain everything now and overwhelm her. "They are the big four teams of Premiere League. So, um... I might get a little bit excited while watching the game." He'd get way too excited, but she was clever enough to draw that meaning. Hopefully.

"Oh, sure." he said with a smile. Was that... a blush? Oh Merlin, please not. In an attempt to finish the awkward moment, he gently took the ball from Marie. "Wanna continue, or have a meal?"

Rosalie yawned quite loudly and then laughed.

"I gotta tell you a secret!" she whispered to Jung. Her head was still lying on his shoulder.

"Okay, so no shoulder either. Yep, I think I will stick with the feet for now. Maybe I will try some of the other body parts later after you have taught me more." She said with a smile. Just the thought of being with him made her smile.

Again with him looking at the ground. This time he was talking about how he might would act while watching the game. "Don't worry about it, I'm sure you can't sound any worse than some of the people I've heard watching quidditch matches. It just shows your support for your favorite team." It would be just as fun watching Evan watch the game as it would be to watch the game itself.

Letting go of the ball when Evan grabbed it she said "Maybe we should go eat, we have been playing for a long time." Not that she would be able to eat much with the butterflies jumping around in her stomach. Then again, maybe things would feel a little different when they were around other students and not alone. "So when do you want to practice again?" 'Please say tomorrow, please say tomorrow' she thought as she looked at him trying not to blush again.

Hehe. Again Evan would teach Marie. She wanted him to teach. A happy smile spread across his face. She really knew how to flatter someone.

He grinned. Hehe. "Yeah, well... Just bear in mind." he said. Normally he wouldn't get too excited, but it was Manchester United. A special case, and a match Chelsea had to win to protect their 1st place in the league. Though Manchester hadn't been really impressive after selling Ronaldo, while Chelsea was in perfect form. Phew! He shook his head slightly when he realised he had been holding his breath. Man, even the thought of the game made him stressed.

Huh? Oh, right. Lunch. "Sure." he said as he started to walk towards the castle. "Whenever you want! I'm always open to--" teaching you. "--playing football." Huge smile again.

"Don't worry, I promise not to be upset by whatever comes out of your mouth." 'Just as long as it isn't something bad towards me that is.' She could tell this was going to be a good match. She was getting excited just to watch Evan's reaction to the game, now that would be fun.

"Great, maybe we can practice again later today, or tomorrow." Well maybe not later today, maybe later they could just relax in the common room and look at some of his football magazines together.

"Off to lunch we go." This was turning out to be the best day Marie had ever had.

Awesome. Somehow Cadence had managed to push away another person. What was it with boys? Cadence didn't think she was that awful a person to be around, was she? Sure, sometimes she didn't want to say and didn't react as calmly as she should to things, but that was to be expected since she hadn't seen anyone her own age since leaving Hogwarts her first year. Oh well, it didn't mater, he was leaving. She sighed and smiled at him. "Oh, okay! Bye, then! I hope you find Tibi!" and she just sat on the monkey bars and watched him.

Violet walked to the jungle gym waiting for her friend

Nicoletta ran to the Jungle Gym. She spotted Violet. "Hello! Violet watch this!" she took a running start and did a perfect front flip landing lightly on her feet.

"Cool watch this" Violet did two backflips and landed next to her friend then ran to the monkey bars

Nicoletta ran over to the monkey bars with Violet. She put Luna inh her hood and climbed up across the monkey bars.

Now Prefect Raiden Kururugi was making himself useful.

Except ... he totally wasn't.

There were two kinds of crazy that Ian was familiar with: there was the Crazy, and there was THE CRAZY. Greer, Morgan, Ainsley and the rest of the girls back at his muggle school fell on the former. Allison, Lauren Daniels and the delusional one confusing them all with peasants were, quite obviously, on the latter.

And Ian, as experienced as he was, knew that lying to THE CRAZY could end up being dangerous. Obviously Raiden didn't know this. Ian decided that it was time for him to speak up.

He hooked one arm around Daphne Hopton's, nudged Raiden and then led both of them closer to THE CRAZY. The only way to fight THE CRAZY was to argue with It and make sure they understood.

There was absolutely no point on dwelling over the fact that this had never really worked in the past and that in the end, he'd found himself making the run for it. Surely It would understand now. "Lady Edith of the house of Barbarians!" Because THAT'S what Ian had heard. Lord have mercy on him. "We are NOOOOT peasants. Peasants are green,"--I think--"And we are so obviously NOT green." Obviously. And Ian didn't even like peasants anyway. "Now, apologize to us for your lack of manners. The Prefect here, Miss Hopton and I are waiting." Ian actually snapped his fingers at her.

... "Daph, your wand." Take. It. Out.

Lucille smiled down at her and held out a hand to help Alex up. "I need to be fast," she chuckled. "For running away from your brother mainly." She put on her serious face, and relaxed it into a grin. "Nah im kidding. Im just speedy. Like lighning. Only.....better looking." She rolled her eyes at herself.

STOP STOP TALKING!!!!

"And what may those things be?" she asked, and raised an eyebrow. "competeing in the mini olympics? Climbing down holes?" She held out her other hand to Alex and began to pull - only more gently than she would normally have done. Alex was, afterall, pretty breakable. Lucille could probably keep her in her back pocket - if she wasn't sfraid of sitting down and squeeeeshing her.


Yup, better not try that.

Nicoletta let go of the monkeybars. She bend over backwards and did a backwards walkover and three backflips. She teetered a little but landed.

Violet swung around the monkey bars then jumped on the top

Just as Enid had expected, the Prefect seemed to have no intentions of delivering any messages to the king - because he didn't know where the king was. Hmph! And to think her dumb enough to fall for that... how insulting! She returned her attention to swinging merrily when the peasants, now clinging on to one another, approached her yet again. The girl came to an abrupt halt on the swing and turned to them with a sigh. Now what? She listened as the cowardly one spoke, telling her she had been awfully rude - after calling her some pretty insulting modified version of her name - and snapping his fingers at her.

Enid merely sat there and stared, a bit disbelieving of what her green eyes were seeing. Alright, these peasants were getting a little dangerous now. No, not a little - way dangerous now. They were grouping up in a pack, approaching, and attacking verbally. If she let this go on any longer, she might find herself either lost in the depths of the lake, or in the depths of their stomachs. They did look like they could be cannibals.

And so, she held out the wand she had been holding all along, pointing it at the group with slightly furrowed brows. "Off with thee, peasants. Thy behaviour is most unacceptable; do make thyselves useful and milk a cow or collect some wool from the sheep; but do be vanished from my sight, for my eyes are growing sore and my ears might bleed if I hear more of thy foul dialect."

Regarding Cadence for a little longer, Jake tilted his head, but he of course had no desire to stay out in the open air any more than he needed to (the paranoia was baaaaaack). With one tiny smile, Jake turned and just began sprinting off back to the castle at top speed. He needed sleep and he needed it now.

After Jake left her at the Jungle Gym, Cadence had wandered off to... well, a lot of places. And she had made a new friend!!

Nate and Cadence had made a very quick exit from kitchens. She felt bad that Nate had never gotten his sandwich, but she did not want to stay there with that Lucy girl and take a chance on things getting all messed up again. Cady dragged Nate by the hand out of the kitchens, through the corridor, up the stairs into the entrance hall, and out the front doors. As they exited the castle, she let go of his hand and slowly began making her way toward the Jungle Gym

"Sorry you didn't get your sandwich..." she said, looking at the ground and playing nervously with the ends end of her hair again.

"It's fine. I'll get one later." he said sitting in the sand. He picked some up and let it run through his fingers.

Cadence sat down in the sand next to him and stared absentmindedly back toward the castle. She fidgeted with the hoodie she was wearing. Tyler's hoodie. It was a little warm outside in the sun, now, so she took it off. Looking over her shoulder at the Jungle Gym, she noticed two bars that looked remarkably like uneven bars in gymnastics. Turning back to Nate, she smiled. "Hey! Watch this!" She got up, threw the hoodie in his lap, and ran over to the bars. So what if she was going to show off? She mounted the lower bar, performing a few tricks before switching up to the higher bar. After performing a few more tricks on the top bar, she dismounted with a single back tuck and turned to look at him, smiling, hair in her face AGAIN.

"That was almost as good as my soccer skills." he said folding the hoodie. "No, I'm kidding. That was amazing. Shall we dance and you can show off your ballroom dancing skills? Maybe you could teach me?"

Cadence laughed and walked back over to him, sitting back down in the sand. He wanted her to teach him how to dance? Yep... definitely a waaaay better match for Cady than Tyler. She bumped playfully into Nate and said, "I'm not sure your girlfriend would be okay with me teaching you how to dance. You'd have to hold me really...really close." She let her voice get quiet, wanting to emphasize the really really close part. Brushing her hair out of her face, she bumped into him again.

"Well maybe some other time then" he said with a smirk. He wanted her so badly. Almost as bad as Ella wanted Carter. He wanted to hold her tight and dance with no music. Nate wanted to hang out with her and listen to her talk forever about nonsense.

Cadence smiled at his smirk. Uggh he was so cute!! "You just, um, let me know when it'll be okay..." and by that she meant, let me know as soon as you and your girlfriend break up. After a few moments of silence, she said, "Let's play on the swings!" She stood up and ran over to the swings. "Aww... there's only one left. Guess we can't play on the swings..." She just stood there pondering the swing situation.

"Just sit on my lap. It'll be fine." This way I'll get to smell your hair. He thought to himself. He sat on the swing and patted his lap.

Cadence gave him a skeptical look with a half-smile, but nevertheless she walked over to him and sat down in his lap. She grabbed ahold of the chains on the swing and turned around to look at him over her shoulder. "Don't you dare let me fall!" Wow, his face was really close to hers. She felt a warm, tingly feeling in her stomach, and turned around to face forward, a little unsure of how this two people on swing thing worked.
