Georgie glanced around the yard and saw Rex, she gave a wave and was about to head over when she noticed a crying blonde walk onto the playground. Georgiana did a double take and looked back, the girl looked really familiar...OMGEE! It was Nikki! Georgiana quickly sped up her pace and walked over towards Nikki, tackling her with a hug. Nooo! This was the day of her big date with Blake! She wasn't supposed to be crying!

"Nikki! What happened? I thought you were going to Puddifoot's with Blake." she pulled back slightly to look into her friends face. This was definitely depressing. Nikki should be happy and bubbly and GUSHING to her about the date right now.

Nikki some tears from her checks and continued to swing back and forth. Stupid Blake....How could he do that to-whoa! Nikki was taken a back when she felt someone hugging her. She couldn't to who it was because her face was in the persons shirt.

I swear if its Blake here to apologise...oh its Georgie. Nevermind!

Nikki looked up at Georgie and then at the girls shirt. "Sorry Georgie, looks like some of my make up got on your shirt." She said indicating the girls shirt. She sighed when Georgie asked what was wrong and that she thought Nikki would be and Madam Puddifoots. "No I decided to here and cry before heading over there!" She said snapped. "Sorry," She sighed. "I went there, but things went a little bad."

Georgiana waved her hand at her apology about the shirt, it was just some damn shirt. It was easily replaceable, what Nicky was crying about was wayy more important. Besides, their had to be some spell to fix it, right? Eh, whatever. She blinked when Nikki snapped but took no offense, obviously she was upset, and it was natural for her to be snappy. Heck, she knew she was when she was hurting.

Taking the seat next to Nikki, Georgie pushed herself slightly with her foot and looked at Nikki, she wracked her brain for what could've happened but came up empty. She tilted her head to the side and frowned, "What happened? Or, do you not want to talk about it?"

Good, she wasn't mad at Nikki. She smiled softly at Georgie before looking down at her purse. She pulled it open and took out her little mirror, staring at her reflection. Whoa. There were blobs of make up all over her check. Half was mascara and the other half was eyeliner. "Oh wow, I look awful!" She said dropping the mirror in her bag and closing it.

She sighed and swung back and forth gently. Did she really want to talk about it? Well she sorta of wanted to. When she had been younger, her mother had told her that she couldn't bottle her angrer up. Because sooner or later she would explode and probably hurt an innocent person. "Well I arrived at Madam Pudifoots. I was five minutes late, rule number 5." She began. "I sat down and he told me I looked really pretty." She smiled a little, remembering the comment. She looked down at her green dress and black leggings.

Georgie smiled slightly hearing her exclaim that she looked awful, "Don't worry, it's just me and it does NOT look that bad." It wasn't drop dead gorgeous either, but a girl was entitled to not look her best when she was upset! Jeez!

Georgiana remained patient while Nikki thought about whether or not she wanted to talk, and remained attentive when Nikki started in. "Rule number 5...?" she muttered, apparently someone didn't give her the rulebook on dating...but whatever, that part didn't matter right now. "So he told you you looked pretty?" she raised an eyebrow, she didn't see the issue, but then again, Nikki apparently wasn't done. She fell silent again to wait for her to go on.

Nikki sighed again and continued on with her story, just ignoring Georgies questioning about rule number 5. She could explain later! Besides, she forgot about most of the other rules. "Well I we sat down and we ordered our food." She decided to leave out the bit about how she had insulted Blake about being poor. But oh well, he deserved it! Sniff.

"Well we were just chatting when..." She took in a deep breath. "When the evil troll walked in." She said, rolling her eyes. "Shana made Blake promise the he wouldn't get a girlfriend without talking to her first. And I was the last person Shana wanted Blake to date."

Georgiana frowned. Shana, the little brat Nikki told her about yesterday when they were talking in the great hall. "That is positively horrible! I can not BELIEVE she did that to you!" Ohh, she was SO ready to go find the girl and hex her. Put the little snot in the hospital wing. She totally deserved it. Georgie turned back towards Nikki, "Why didn't Blake just tell her to bug off?"

"That's something I want to know too." Nikki said sighing again. She continued to swing. "So Blake stood up and guess what he said?!" She said, her tone no longer soft. It was full of anger. "He said, quote. "Umm, come...join..err..us." end quote." It felt horrible repeating it. But thats all she kept hearing. "join us!"

Georgie frowned and jumped up, "He said WHAT!? Nik, he's a total idiot!" she crossed her arms, maybe HE was the one who deserved to be hexed. It was obvious now Shana wasn't the reason Nikki was crying, not really, it was all Blake! That jerk! "Nikki, I'd forget about him. You could obviously do so much better." she sat back on her swing, her screaming fit probably wasn't helping. "Seriously, I can't believe he asked her to join you guys."

Lukus Stod at the foot of the playground edge as he watched the other kids, chatting playing with there friends. Smerking to himself he picked up his book from the ground which had been using as a seat and walked towards the the jungle gym.
Rapped up in his long cloak. he dakr green eyes shone in the light. as he peered up at the sky.
Smiling to himself he drew out his wand. Flicking in over his ear he lent himself against the frame. As he peered over at the groups again
"You just jealous, You dont have what is take to make friends". The voices whispered in his head
"You only have yourself and that's how it stays" the echoed long a hard thought his thoughts.

Nikki chuckled. She had sort of expected that reaction from Georgie. It was just like her. "I think I need to sleep on it." She said when Georgie told her to forget Blake. It just wasn't possible. Nikki could just forget Blake. It seemed impossible. "He just doesn't know what a DATE means."

"Thanks Rex" Kat smiled at him. She was very grateful to have great friends like him. "So what's up with you?" She asked him. he listened to her problems the least she could do was listen to his. If he had any.

Rex pushed Emily on swing. "Do you like this?" Rex asked Emily. "What is yoru favorite color and number?" Rex asked Emily.

" Hi this is my friend Emily" Rex introduced her to Georgie. "Are you ok?" Rex asked Georgie. " You know what team can help you" Rex told Georgie.

"Well, I wished I could have made the Quidditch team" Rex told Kat sadly. " I have been going to classes and hanging out with my girlfriend and friends all around HogWarts" Rex explained to Kat. " These are two of my freinds, Emily and Georgiana" Rex introduced them to Kat. " Kat is my friend, too" Rex told Georgie and Emily.

"Oh sorry you didn't make it" Kat said to Rex and gave him a smile. A smile makes everything better!! Kat turned to the girls he was talking about. "Hey" She said to them with a famous Kat smile.

Georgiana frowned, she shouldn't have phrased it that way. Not like Nikki could completely FORGET Blake. She'd never ever ever be able to do that! Like if this were HER she'd never be able to just forget about Barry. It would take years. Hearing her last sentence she gave a snort. "Well, THAT much is obvious." she rolled her eyes slightly, she was seriously considering running and finding this guy who hurt HER friend Nikki and hexing HIM into next week. And if she had anything left over she'd use it on Shana. Sounded fun to her!

Hearing Rex, Georgie turned her head to see him. She hadn't realized how close she and Nikki were to him. But then again, she'd been a little more pre-occupied on the fact Nikki was crying. That was her number one. She gave a slight smiled and a wave to the girl Emily, and the other Kat who he introduced her to. "Hiya! Pleasure to meet you both." she said, trying to sound enthusiastic. It wasn't these girls fault she wanted to hex Blake!

Thinking because he introduced her to his friends she gave a quick intro for Nikki, though she wasn't sure she should've, she probably wasn't up for new people. But then again, it was a distraction. "Rex this is Nikki, Nikki this is my friend Rex." she made a quick introduction then nodded hearing his question. "Yes, I'm ok." she smiled reassuringly and chuckled hearing him. "I definitely know what group can be helped. But I think this one needs to just be left alone for now." she smiled her appreciation. She'd really made a good group of friends.

" It is ok I did not make the team" Rex told Kat. " Thanks for the nice smile, it makes me feel better" Rex said to Kat.

" Hi Nikki, nice to meet you" Rex told her. " Sure you are ok" Rex gave Georgie that I do not believe you look. "Well, I will not bother you about whatever you are goig through now" Rex explained to Georgiana. Rex is dissapointed because he thought "The Magical Five" was all about helping each other in any situations. Rex wonders if he made a big mistake about the group because no one gets it or him. This was supposed to be like "The Golden Trio".

Georgiana nodded her head, "I'm alright." She just REALLY wanted to hex someone right now. But or Nik's sake, she refrained. She figured that though Nikki was angry as all get out at Blake right now, plotting anything against him would only make it worse for her. She smiled at Rex, trying to convey through him she'd explain later. She did smile widely though, "But what do you say bout next term? Think you and Kay and Mina are up for the challenge I have for you?" Cause watching Cody would certainly be a challenge. Hopefully she could convince him to not be TOO much trouble. Ah, crap! She still had to tell Nik about the letter she got from her parents. Was now the best time though?

"Same here" Kat said to Georgie. Hmmm... Maybe Kat should go find Lucy. hopefully Lucy would be alone and not with Tyler. Hmmm... She turned back to Rex and said "Great!! It's suppose to make you feel better!" she grinned. "I think i'm going to go find Lucy" Kat said as she got up from the swing. "Catch you later! Nice meeting you two" She smiled and started heading towads the castle.

"Well, i do not believe you are alright "Rex told Georgie. " i may be breaking up "The Magical five" because it is not working" Rex said to Georgie. " I love all of you from "The magical Five" but I think only Gryffindors would understand what I wanted us to do " Rex expalined to Georgie sadly. "Well, I guess wecould take care of Cody for you" Rex told Georgie.

" bye Kat" rex told her.

Georgiana smiled and waved at the girl Kat as she walked away, she really hoped she hadn't come off as cold. She was just trying to help Nikki right now, and all the chattering was distracting her. Turning back towards Rex she tilted her head, maybe she really didn't understand what they wanted from her. There was only so much she could do. Georgie was only 15. "And we all love you too Rex, but maybe your right. I'm just getting more and more confused." she shook her head sadly then looked up and smiled at him, "Thank you. I really appreciate it. I love him to death, but he is certainly a handful." she chuckled lightly, she hoped her cousin wasn't TOO much of an idiot while he was here...but knowing him, he probably would be.

" You know we are the same age" Rex told Georgie. " "All I ever wanted was "The Magical Five" to befriend otherss,help others and when the " magical Five" needed help, we all tell each other and help each other out" Rex explained to Georgie. "Cody, we can handle"" Rex said to Georgie.

Emily smiled |"yes" she said then e to turned to grorgie "Nice to meet you!" she said then to kat "you too" she said. then to rex she said after some thought "i would have to say rainbow because I can't choose a colour... and for number I'm going to say 3.141592654.... or pi" she said laughing hard.

Helena grinned as Drew said that he would be sure that she met this girl, Annie. That was toooooo exciting for her - awww, her little shy Gryffindor friend!! At his change in tone and question, she frowned slightly, but more curious than upset. Of course, you can - what's up? she asked without hesitation.

"Welll." Drew started as his hand moved to the back of his neck and he rubbed it slightly. "Soooo I told Annie I like her and all. But she said we should wait for anything to happen. Like before we become more than friends. But what happens if we wait to long and she likes somebody else or something...." He trailed off at the end and gulped slightly. Helena would now what to do right....Well maybe she won't but she has to know more about this stuff than him...

Helena grimaced slightly. It was a valid question - something she'd been hoping to avoid, but she had to help him out, right? He was her Gryffie-best friend, after all. Well, I think that since you both like each other, waiting a little while should be what's best. Don't stress over the 'liking other people' thing - if she really likes you, she'll stick to her word and something will happen later. If she doesn't, it might be best to move on anyway. She gulped slightly. Those words were so true, and yet didn't apply in the slightest to Helena.
