Travis nodded and waited patiently as she returned, "You look beautiful by the way," he said as he walked with her up to the Room of Requirement, he was interested in what she wanted to tell him.

Shaking out his dark, straight hair in a bit of an attempt to dry it, Fletcher led the way toward the kitchens. "My common room's just this way, yeh know?" He nodded and paused by a portrait of a giant banana, not seeing any signs or doors to the kitchen exactly.

"I have to admit, Rae," he turned toward the Slytherin and leaned in. "I've never actually been to the kitchens, so........................."

In other words, he didn't know where precisely they were.

Walking down the corridor that led to the kitchens, she saw Fletcher stop while he explained that his common room was around here. "Heh, i know. i know what floor all the common room's are, just not exactly where they are. Were not really supposed to know." Then Fletcher turned and leaned her way admitting he didn't know where the kitchens were. As for the kitchens, i didn't expect you to know, they don't broadcast that and i'm surprised you knew what floor it's on." Rae looked at Fletcher's eyes, then decided she should proceed to her conversation..."I found it last year when i nicked some food there... It happens to be really close by...." Think he'd guess?

"Ah, right," Fletcher kind of shrugged at Rae's response. "Let me guess... it's like... hidden by or behind one of these portraits?"

He eyed a particular potato portrait that seemed to be laughing at him.

Rae smirked a little "Correct. Now.... Which one? Also.... How would you get past it?" Oh he would NEVER guess that one..... Agh.. The scene at the fountain crossed her mind.... She gave up and couldn't help but ask almost accusingly "What happened back at the fountain? I mean every time a person came up we were like a team against them." Except for that first year who purposely gave them money.. "But as soon as a weird one came along you didn't back me up. Who was that prat anyways? I had to deal with him ALONE." She was half frustrated and angry and half not. The other half wasn't because she could not find herself to be fully angry with him.

Hmm.... it was one of the painted portraits then? Fletcher squinted and wandered down the corridor a little ways, listening to Rae talk at him. He folded his arms and leaned against a painting of a fruit bowl when she brought up the muscle man.

"I dunno. I was talking to that little Ravenclaw girl and then picked up a few coins.... and just as I waded over to ask you about that guy he was gone." He gave her a look. "I thought you knew him?"

Rae was still a bit irritated after his explanation, she was sure that even after the first year there were plenty of opportunities he could've stepped in and helped her out. Settling on the decision that she wouldn't say what she thought on that part of the subject she went on to answer his VERY wrong question. "No, i have no idea who he is. That's why i don't know why he was acting so.... odd." Seriously if there was anyone to act that way around her she would at least like to know who the person is first. Speaking of which, someone in front of him, who She still wanted to know his real name. Because she really did want to know him. But how to bring it up without a reaction like the last.....

Simon sat down on the floor, he'd had a bad few days and now it seemed like Amy wouldn't talk to him again, why did he have to lose his temper with her, it wasn't her fault, she had at least stuck up for him in the end and now he'd probably never speak to her again, due to him losing his temper with her and then he'd just ignored Maddie and he was wondering what she felt like, she hadn't done anything but he'd snapped at her too, boy was his first week going wrong.

Maddie ran down the corridor, panting. She'd followed Simon all the way here from the Lake, and she slid down onto the floor beside him. Giving him a hug, she asked
'What's wrong, Simon?'

Simon looked at Maddie and sighed. "I'm sorry if I was a bit mean to you in front of that other boy." Simon had no idea who it was. "I've just had a bad few days, which was made worse when someone question the sorting hat, saying are you sure you were really sorted into Hufflepuff." Simon sighed, "And I'm missing the palace and my hangout." Simon really was missing home.

Maddie released him from her hug and smiled weakly
'It'll get better' she promised him 'And I, for one, have no doubt that the sorting hat was right. You're incredibly loyal, Simon, and hardworking. You were made for Hufflepuff!' she couldn't believe someone had said otherwise 'And, to be honest, I never thought I would say this, but I'm missing home as well. So we can all be homwsick together...'

Amy walked down the stairs and onto her floor, she saw Simon and Maddie, and shoving her nose up, she refused to look at Simon, she walked past them, hope they're happy, she hissed mentaly, as she walked into the kitchen

Simon gave Maddie a hug. "Thanks Maddie." Simon smiled as he let go of her, he was glad he wasn't the only one that was homesick. "We can." He said as he remembered something. "Who was that boy with you?" He was wondering if she still liked him or if this new boy was her new best mate.

"Amy stop please." Simon said, but it was too late she was already in the kitchen, he wanted to appologise to her, but maybe he should let her calm down a bit first.

Amy walked out of the kitchen and past Simon, as she walked she had a dizzy spell and held her hand to her her head, she walked more clumsily swaying and then-As the blackout came, Amy fell to the floor as she fainted, her head hitting the stone tiles

Simon watched as Amy fell to the floor, oh god please let her be okay, Simon shouted. "SOMEONE HELP ME." Simon quickly ran to Amy, he had no idea what to do, he quickly sat down next to her, hoping that someone would come. "SOMEONE PLEASE HELP." He turned to Maddie. "Go get a Professor will you."

Melissa walked to the Kitchen Corridor then just noticing something. Something bad. "WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED?" she exclaimed running towards them finding Amy on the floor and Simon shouting. "Should I find a teacher, how about our head of house?" she asked him, panicking.

Simon looked at this new girl, that had come. "I think that would be a good idea." Simon said, he didn't really know what to do this was the first time he had to deal with something like this and he was unsure how to handly it.

Melissa nodded quickly. She didn't know exactly WHO the Head of the Hufflepuff house was, but she could get Professor Reynolds. "How about I get Professor Reynolds? And I think Amy will be alright, if nothing else happens to her," she added, extremely worried about her. "So how did she end up like this?" she asked Simon.

Simon looked at Melissa, in all the haste of trying to get a Professor he hadn't realised who it was. "Well we had an arguement at the lake, and so I came to come down." Simon said sadly. "But then Amy came and storm passed and into the kitchen and then on her way back out, she just fainted." Simon said as he held Amy's head so that it wasn't on the cold floor. "Am I doing right?" Simon wasn't sure.

Nolan Reynolds had been wandering the castle, stretching his legs after sitting in his office all day, when he heard shouting. WHY was someone always shouting in this castle?! What ever happened to inside voices?

As he got closer to the yelling, he swore he heard someone say his name. They weren't arguing about him, were they? He surely wasn't that popular in this school yet, right? Hehe.

No, no time for jokes! He needed to figure out the source of this commotion!

As he turned the corridor, he found a gathering of some young Hufflepuffs, a few of them he recognized. Except one of them was...unconscious. Uh oh. That was never good.

"What happened?" he demanded, looking at the two conscious students. One of them was that young Melissa girl he remembered from the ice cream parlour--so was the one who was passed out at the moment.

"Well we had an arguement at the lake, and so I came to come down." Simon said sadly. "But then Amy came and storm passed and into the kitchen and then on her way back out, she just fainted." How many more times would he have to say it, he was still holding Amy's head. "Professor am I in any trouble." He was scared he would be, even though he hadn't done anything.

Melissa looked puzzled at him. How can someone just faint. But the poor girl, arguments AGAIN. "Yeah, it's gonna be alright Simon," she spoke, but slightly unsure about that statement.

Finally! Professor Reynolds. What happened, she hardly knew. "Er, well sir I just came here, about to go to the kitchens when I saw Amy on the floor looking like she was now, unconscious, and I just asked Simon what happen," she explained sadly to Professor Reynolds.

Well, ok. At least they hadn't been duelling or something. THAT was good, right? Nolan nodded as the boy explained himself, but then wrinkled his eyebrows. "No, you're not in trouble. If she just passed out and fainted, chances are she's just a bit malnurished at the moment," he explained.

He bent down over the girl and pulled out his wand. "Rennervate," he muttered, hoping that that would wake the girl up. If she was just a bit dizzy, they could easily give her some orange juice and hope that helped.

Simon looked at the Professor, he was scared. "Professor can I talk to you in your office?" He really wanted someone to talk to.

Mel looked on, seeing as she wasn't apart of this she would stay out until she was or maybe she was going to go.
