Miles looked up at Fia swiftly as she smacked his hand to stop him from drumming his fingers. "Sorry. I can't stop," he said as his foot started tapping. "Yup...lots of things. Me and medicine don't mix. Hate to see what happens when I'm really sick." He grinned and followed her other hand as it went into her pocket and he saw the tablet. "What?" He picked it up and looked at it curiously. "It doesn't look like popcorn." Lifting it to his nose he sniffed it and shook his head, "Nope doesn't smell like popcorn either."

He placed it back into her hand. "Look at what my mom got me," He said with a grin and pulled out MORE chocolate. The good stuff this time. "CHOCOLATE!" he said with a grin and slid his hand from under hers to break off a piece and pop it into his mouth. "Aaaaah Fi I love you," he said with a smile and gave her a big hug.

"Heyyyy!" Fia giggled as Miles poked the tablet up to his nose to sniff. "I don't want boogers on it." If there was anything, HE was feeling better and that she was thankful for. Her eyes rolled closed as she shook her head to his chocolate fix that his mother gave him.

And with another hug from her boyfriend she finally wrapped her arms around his waist and began talking into his chest. "I'm going to pretend that I'm not still upset with you." FINE! Boys just NEVER understood when females were upset with them. It was like a fact that they never acknowledged. Maybe that was done on purpose? Either way, she was going to get this off of her chest one way or another.

Miles laughed and leaned his head up, flaring his nostrils, "I've got no boogers." He leaned in and kissed her cheek with a smile. "I'm just saying...I don't know how THAT is popcorn...makes no sense." Seeing her roll her eyes he pretended to be hurt, "Hey now...don't go knocking the chocolate. This chocolate is the best chocolate in the world."

As she wrapped her arms around his waist he smiled and then his eyebrows drew down in puzzlement. "Wait...you're upset with me? Why? When?" Had he missed something? He hadn't even seen her in awhile how was she mad at him

*sticks with Oliver* Although Miles should really find out how he got helped sometime
 

Even through the hyperness, Adrienne could tell the boy was definitely a Slytherin. He had the ego down pat, really, and she fought back another smile as he tried to say the Huffies just didn't understand his humor. "That may be the case, but moreso because they choose to look to different things for their humor. Like, not things that are said in a derogatory way," she said, a hint of amusement still coming out in her voice, before she laughed as he tried to brush off her comment about badgers. "Know-it-alls? Not really. I'd imagine there are things Ravenclaws don't know, but there's just a lot of things we do," she said simply, before she grinned at his next statement. "Why thank you, and I find it more curious that the mascot of Ravenclaw is actually an eagle. You'd think it would be a raven, but then, I guess we'd have to ask Rowena Ravenclaw herself to really find out the answer."

Hmm, this one wasn't as dense as he seemed, as he immediately figured out her inference about her brother. "Yep. Twin brother, even. I'd find it strange, except I know him, and it's completely appropriate for him to be in Slytherin." A cryptic smile flickered on her face, though, as he expressed curiosity as to what she would have done to Riley if he'd insulted her and her playing. "Wouldn't you like to know?," she said, baiting him a little before continuing in an almost contemplative tone. "Accuracy is in the eye of the beholder, you know, and there are a few people, I'd imagine, other than me, who woudl disagree with the idea that you won because you're better. I say you just got lucky." There was no way she wouldn't defend her team with everything she had, and it was easier to just make that known right now. Another grin split her face, though, as Slythie boy returned her introduction. At least he had some manners, among all that hyperness and, well, Slytherin-ness. "It's nice to meet you too, Oliver." At least she was having fun now. And apparently her flippant comment about his hyperness hit a nerve, which made her smile a little to herself before she returned her gaze to him innocently. "I wouldn't worry about it, though. Some cheering, all that, and you'll get that energy out easily. It's bottling it up that can be bad."

Returning her attention to the match as she saw Miles and Fia talking elsewhere in the stands, she flinched a little as her cheer for Torin was met by an even louder one from Oliver. He certainly had a set of lungs on him, but at least he'd stopped with the rodent thing for now. And she was starting to think the Huffies needed all the support she could get, as the Lions kept things fairly even. It was starting to worry her a little, if she let herself be honest. "COME ON BADGERS!!!!!!," she yelled, before settling back into her seat. Hopefully the second half would be less, well, nerve-wracking.

Fishing for a bottle of water below her seat, Kiri sat down with a sigh. She twisted the cap off and drank greedily. It was only mid-June, and the Hogwartian highlands could hardly be called tropical, of course, but she'd still worked up a thirst - and a sweat - over the first half of this match. She'd whooped and shouted and gasped; all the normal reactions one had to a Quidditch match, in fact, but she'd done all that in bright sunlight (having somewhat stupidly chosen the wrong side of the stadium). Her face felt a bit hot. Taking another gulp, she wondered absent-mindedly whether she would end up with sunburnt cheeks.

She sniffed and stowed the bottle away again. Kiri hadn't been quite sure who to cheer for... Seeing as Gryffindor had defeated her team in the first match, she would have liked them to win, just so she could say that she had lost against the eventual champion. But she also had friends playing on the Hufflepuff team, and did not want to see them sad or upset either. So, diplomatic as always, Kiri was wearing a scarf in Slytherin's colours, slung lightly around her neck. It was made of silk, but she hoped that that would be enough, if it came to it, to protect her chest from sunburn - she was only wearing a thin top suitable for the warm weather.

She squinted around in the sunlight as the two teams disappeared in their locker rooms for half time. Was there anyone around she knew?

For Oliver AND Adrienne <3 Hope you guys don't mind?
 

She was late.Late to the most important match in the whole school term.And Sarah was just praying that Miranda and Ryder would forgive her for that.If they even had a clue what was going on in the stands, though, of course.She was sure they were much more interested in the actual happenings on the pitch.And now she was babbling in her head.Either way she would speak to them both later....

By the time Sarah had reached the stands the first half was over, and a quick glance at the scoreboard told her it was pretty much evens, just one goal behind.Turning her attentions back to finding herself a seat, Sarah caught a glimpse of some curly hair out the corner of her eye.Oliver Greenwood.Potato Boy, Curls...whatever his nickname was now.... Squeezing past a few other people, she made her way towards him.

"Excuse me, pardon me, coming through, thank you..." Trying not to step on anyone's toes, Sarah parked her bum on the bench directly behind Oliver and tapped the boy on the top of the head, leaning forward at the same time to whisper to him. "Behaving yourself I hope, Mr Greenwood..." she gave him the sort of devilish smirk that he often used, before turning to the person he was talking to and smiling at her. "Sorry for interrupting you two...How did the first half go? No-one hurt I hope..."

Biting her lip, Sarah craned her neck to try and see the door to the lockerooms, wondering when they'd be back out, and if Ryder would be with them.She missed him.It seemed like forever since they'd been together.But after the game that would change, and she wanted to organise what they'd do over the summer break as well.Re-adjusting her prefect badge, Sarah lifted the yellow and black scarf, that she only had with her to show support as it was much too hot for any other reason, from around her shoulders and started waving it in the air.

Finally the sun was shining over Hogwarts in all it's glory which could mean only one thing; SUMMER VACATIONS! Happily making his way up the stands, shoving around a few mean students because they wouldn't give him enough space to move, Blake plunked down on a seat but sprung to his feet immediately. "HOLEY MOLEY! You're hot!" He said, eyeing the seat as he fanned himself to cool down the heat that had penetrated into him through his behind.

Shaking his head in disgust, Blake carefully sat down again, his eyes squeezed shut as he slightly bounced on the seat like a ping-pong ball. "Ouch..ouch..oouch..oouch..." He repeated while his body got used to the hot seat. This little incident drained all his summer excitement and the things he had planned to do. Stupid seat, stupid sun and stupid summer. Pulling off the water bottle cap, Blake poured a good amount of it on his head, wetting his favorite neon green t-shirt, a bit of his jeans and his neon green sneakers which he adored. Ahh much better. His hair would have definitely released some steam on coming in contact with the cold water. How cool is that? HUH? He downed the remaining quantity of water in a gulp and glanced around to kill his boredom till the game ended. To be honest, he didn't care for the match since the Slytherin team was off the pitch. Speaking of which, Slytherin had performed poorly this term. No gobstones, no quidditch and chasing the house-cup seemed impossible all together. Le sigh. Only if he had done his homework. His squinted eyes wandered among the sweaty crowd until it came to halt as he looked to his right. Ohai! It's the Slytherin Captain herself.

Blake never had the chance to talk to her before so maybe, he could, you know, disturb her. She seemed a bit flabbergasted and heat stricken. "Pour it down your head.." He suggested, indicating her water bottle and smiled. "You're Captain Kiri, right? I'm Blake Wright, Lavi's friend." Yeah..Lavinus's slightly nutty buddy.

Marie had been happy watching the game, that is until Evan was brought up. She felt all her happiness turn to sadness in an instant. "He left school to train to be a professional football player thanks to some advice Lawson gave him." Why did Lawson have to encourage him so much? If he would have just kept his mouth shut then she would still have Evan at school with her. "I don't even know how he is doing anymore. I haven't heard from him in a couple of months." She had no idea when she might see him again. Heck she didn't even know if he was coming back to school next term.

Hearing the whistle blow she looked down at her feet again. Good it was halftime, she could just sit there now. She wasn't in the mood to be cheering anymore. Hopefully her mood would change by the time the game started back up.

Ella&Jason and Mina
 

Cadence smiled thankfully when Ella said Cadence could sit with her. These days, she had even fewer friends unfortunately. Well, true she hadn't had many before anyway, she had just had Nate and was ALWAYS with him. She reached across to the boy who was standing on the other side of Ella, holding out her hand, "Hi! You're in Hufflepuff, right? I think I've seen you around. I'm Cadence!"

And then the came had started, and she jumped up and down screaming like a mad person. "Goooo Huffies! Yeah Torin! Get 'em! Nice save Miranda!!!"" And of course, when Carter had the quaffle, she got quiet, watching him, and when she scored, she cheered quietly right along with Ella. It was a really good game.

And then the first half was over, and Cadence looked around smiling. She saw Mina walk in and look at them as if she might want to join them, but then she seemed to change her mind and went to sit by herself. "Umm... I'll be right back guys," she said before climbing through the stands and down to Mina. One look at her face told her that Carter hadn't told her the whole truth about how Mina was doing. The poor girl looked completely depressed. Sitting down next to her, she smiled and cheerily said, "Hi Mina!" and left it at that. She wasn't going to ask Mina how she was. They would avoid that conversation... for now.

hehe! Sarah is welcome to join the party.
 

Oliver chuckled. This girl could be nothing but a Ravenclaw... it was all logic with her. She was taking all his sarcastic remarks and arguing logic with them. Oliver was used to getting either a chuckle or a slap for his colourful 'opinions'. Derogatory? He crinkled his nose. “It's not meant in that way at all. It's said with the greatest of affection.” Because Oliver did love those Rodents kids with their big yellow shiny hearts... except maybe Shoe Girl – she was just insane. ...But there was one in every house wasn't there?

Ack. More logic. It was hurting Oliver's hyper brain having to think about this stuff. “Ok. Not know-it-alls. But you're a bunch of smarty pants. No wonder you lot are in the lead for the cup. It doesn't seem fair putting all the smart kids in a house together, you know?” And how come Oliver wasn't among them, eh? He had an awesomely awesome brain. Eh.. he'd never thought about why Ravenclaw had a eagle for their mascot before. “Could be because ravens are freaky lookin scavengers. Eagles are noble, aren't they?” Weird. Shrug.

She had a twin brother. That was kinda cool. “You two idential?” He said indicating at her face by waving a hand in front of it. He merely shrugged in reply to her criptic info on her brother. What did he care? “Oh shut it, loser.” He smirked in response to her annoying logical retort about Quiddich, and elbowed her playfully so she would know he was kidding. “You lost; we won. So the better team clearly won. It had nothing to do with luck.. it was all down to raw skill.” heh heh. Now that was logic for you.

Urgh. The number of times he had been injured because of his ADHD due to running aroung like a hyper idiot and bouncing off the walls (literally sometimes), and this chick was telling him not to repress it. It seemed he could be 'damaged' either way. He started gnawing on his thumb again. He wished he was out on the pitch burning this off instead of stuck up here in a crowd of people.

Cheering, huh? Well that seemed like another LOGICAL idea. Dammit! Ravenclaws were an odd lot.

Deciding to take Adriennne's advice, he began to chant/sing:

“Where do all dumb kids go? HUFF.... er..” He was interupted mid chant by someone tapping him on the top of the head. Turning, expecting to see an irritated Huffie, he smirked back when he saw it was just Sarah who was busy grinning at him.. Nice. “What's this? Late to your own team's game? Tut, tut.” He teased, then smirked as she asked if he was behaving. “As always, Miss Prrrrrefect.” He replied with an innocent expression followed by a mischievous wink. Crazy he may be, but he was harmless. when he wasn't cursed and hexing his friends that is.

"How are you? Hows the back?" He enquired. Poor girl. One day he would make it up to her. He wasn't sure how, but he certainly owed Sarah big time.

Sorry for epic fail in shortness....getting ready to head to work
 

Mina looked over as she heard her voice. Smiling a tiny smile, she looked to her other friend. "Hi Cadence." It was good to see her friend and to see she was feeling better after all that had happened. Part of her was still terrified of how Cadence would take what happened up in the corridor and whether if she knew what Mina had done. Biting her lip, she tried to smile again. She fresh air really wasn't doing much for her spirit at all it seemed.

Suddenly he was in a hug, not a hard hug but it was one of those soft and warm hugs. It felt good and warm, but more importantly it felt Right. Taking his arms Jason wrapped them around her and continued the hug going as long as he could before whispering in her ear, "The only person that im supporting today is you" before giving her a kiss on the cheek and ending the hug.

Suddenly she was shouting for Gryffindor and he felt uncomfortable but having an idea he started to shout also.

"GO, GO .......ELLA!"

haha it's all good!
 

Cadence's heart hurt as she looked at Mina. She could sense how much her friend was hurting, and yet she didn't feel like there was anything she could do. She hoped the ministry had killed that evil, evil man. He had ruined the lives of soooo many people at Hogwarts, and that warranted him being killed in Cadence's opinion. No, maybe not killed, something worse. The dementor's kiss, that's what he deserved. He deserved to be sitting in a cell somewhere completely soulless. Not like his soul was worth having in this world anyways.

Despite her inner fury, she continued smiling at Mina. What this school needed was a return to normalcy. What did normal kids talk about this time of year? "Any big plans for the summer? I'm going back to live with my parents because they don't have to hide anymore. They said I could invite some friends over. We have this really big house with a swimming pool and trampoline and lots of other fun things. I was hoping you would come visit this summer? And other people of course. Like Ella and Carter and people like that." She smiled at Mina hopefully. Would the girl like this idea? Would it cheer her up to know that Cadence still wanted Mina to come to her house this summer? She sure hoped so.

Someone was talking to her! Kiri stopped squinting down the length of the Pitch (even the grass seemed to glow in the steady sunlight) and turned around in her seat to glance at the person next to her - presumably the one who'd addressed her.

Kiri was sure that, in different circumstances, she'd have liked the clothes the boy (it was a boy) was wearing. The green of his shirt and his shoes - Kiri ogled those enviously - might not be the brooding tone that Slytherin required, but it was bright and cheerful. Out in the sun, however, it was more than just bright. Kiri felt like it was burning a hole in her retina. A t-shirt shaped hole.

And why did he have wet hair? It wasn't possible to sweat that much, was it?

"Erm..." She smiled crookedly. "Kiri will do, I think. Nice to meet you, Blake." It took her a moment to figure out who the boy was talking about. Lavi, Lavi... Oh, right! She remembered now. "Hey, I know Lavi!" She realised that that was probably why he'd brought his friend's name up. Very smart, she chided herself. "How, er, is he? I haven't seen him in a while. We always seem to miss each other, I guess. Is he busy preparing for his exams or something?"

Reese had woke up not feeling too terribly great this morning - maybe it was because she was still feeling a tiny bit depressed over the whole thing that had happened before? She had tried to HURT the people she loved! If that didn't cause her to feel all depressed-like, she didn't know what did. Though, she really needed to try to get over this depression thingy before graduation. Who wanted to feel bad on graduation day? Not her! But all that was the reason she couldn't make it to the first part of the game since she decided to stay in bed a few more hours.

She had forced herself to get up (because she NEEDED to be there for Jack and Jake) and head down to the Quidditch pitch for what she was hoping would be the second half of the game, and she was right. After taking a quick look around the crowded stands, she took a seat near the front and watched the action on the field through her sunglasses.

Sorry... Cady has to cheer for her BFF lol
 

Before Mina could respond, though, the game had started, and Cadence jumped to her feet and gasped. Lanie was playing! She was actually going to get to watch her best friend play Quidditch. Screaming as loud as she could, she yelled, "GOOOOO LANIE!!!!!! Oh, this was scary. Now it was her best friend and another really good friend dueling it out. Torin must have gotten hurt or something, though, because he wasn't playing now. At least he had gotten to play for it. "Let's go badgers!!!!" she yelled at the top of her lungs.

Yeah... she wasn't going to have a voice for much longer.

Evelyn & Marie :D
 

Destiny had very slowly made her way to the stands. If it weren't for Carter making her that pie, she would not have shown up. Well, actually, he wasn't making it for her, she was just kinda in the right spot at the right time. The spot was the kitchen, the time was Carter making the pie.

Not wearing red and gold, Destiny scanned the area for someone she knew, not that she really knew a lot of people, and her eyes fell on Evelyn and Marie. Good thing they were here, or she probably would have left. She took a seat next to them and realized she had missed the whole first half of the game.

Jeeeez.

'Did I miss anyone get hurt? Because that is the best part.'

She was serious.

Keeley reluctantly sat down in the stands. She didn't get quidditch at all, but as she had never been to a matcch in her life, she felt that it might be nessasary to attend the finals or championship or whatever they're called. Instinctively pulling out her sketchbook, the girl started sketching the players. As she worked, she kept adjusting the multicolored bandana on her head.

[SPOILER="Marie, Mina, Cadence & Jason"] "Nice to meet you," Ella said with a smile to Marie. She seemed as nice as Carter had told her, not like the nasty sort of way Marilyn seemed to look at her. So, they were off to a good start..? She decided to concentrate on the game and keep cheering Carter on.

"CARTER, CARTER!! HE'S OUR MAN! GOOOO GRYFFINDOR!"

Her attention shifted to Jason for a little while. Now that he was her boyfriend, Ella thought that he should know why she was cheering on Carter so hard. "Carter and I met last year, and he's playing the Keeper for the Gryffindor team," she explained. "Was it a sacrifice for you to come cheer here?" she asked him with a grin. When he let go, Ella blushed. He had kissed her cheek. Oh boy. And then he cheered for her! Ella started to laugh in a friendly way. "GO JASON!" she yelled back at him through her laughs. No one had ever done that to her before. Jason was really one of the most interesting and adorable people that she had ever met.

She then looked over at Cadence and grinned. She was surrounded by lots of her favorite people. She loved being there with all of them, and she half-wanted to climb on a broom and go play with the Gryffindor team herself.

Ella saw Mina and a wry smile was left on her face. She went over and gave her a hug, too. There was nothing more she wanted than to spend the most time with her as she could. "You okay, Mina?" she asked her softly. She cared about her best girl friend a lot, and it would hurt too much to think she was leaving.

Ella Too
 

Marie was still sitting there feeling depressed about Evan not being around when the players zoomed out onto the pitch. The second half of the game was
about to start and she still wasn't back in the cheering mood. She really needed to snap out of it and fast.

At the sound of a familiar voice she looked up and there was Destiny. She got a huge smile on her face when she seen her sitting there with them. "Hey Destiny, umm, no I don't think anyone has gotten hurt." Then again she couldn't be sure. She had been too busy watching Carter and not really paying any attention to the other players. "Carter almost got knocked off his broom but he was able to save himself." She hoped nothing like that happened today. I'm glad you came. Who you rooting for today?"

She looked up in time to see Carter stop the Huffies from scoring. "Way to go Carter!" she yelled. Yes, she was back in her cheering mood.

She looked over at Ella and smiled when she heard her cheering for Carter too. It looked like Carter had a lot of fans in the stands today.

"Carter's just really popular," Ella said with a grin to Marie, cheering him on again.

"Hey, Keeley!" Ella said with a grin, sitting next to her. "How have you been? I've never seen you at a game before," she said with a smile. It had been a long, long time since she had talked to her.

Okay. So being a lone cheerleader wasn't the most fun of occupations, and so Brody was deciding that she wanted to find someone to talk to, and someone to help her think of some better cheers, hers had beensort of lame.
She looked around, and a big grin came on her face. Reese, who didn't happen to be in either hufflepuff or Gryffindor. That made her a great candidate for being her fellow cheerleader. "Reeesse Upstead." She called, as she made her way over to the girl. This was going to be fun.

She wrapped her arms around the girl, standing behind her, and she hugged her. "Come to cheer for your boyfriend?" She asked, with a little giggle. Of course she had. Haha. "Hey Reese"
