Alex glared at him, "That's mean not to mention I know a lot of shielding charms.." Alex did to she was also quicker on the draw then him. "Besides my promise should mean everything I would never lie about something like this to you!" Alex didn't let him know it stung at the thought Zane honestly thought he would have to bind her to stop her? She was never that angry.. other then that one time.. but nontheless. Alex looked at the table as if it was the most interesting thing she had ever seen.

Zane wrapped his arm around her and squeezed her tightly. "You know, for almost reading my thoughts, you sure can't tell when I'm kidding around." he said with a smile. He knew that Alex was more serious than he was most of the time, but he was hoping that being with him had lightened her up a little bit.

Alex smiled at him, "Well i'm a thinker.. but lately i've been turning into a feeler! It's all your fault." Alex pouted childishly hugging him back quickly. She smiled at him afterwards, she didn't mind the change it was a good thing mostly. "Besides you should see the expression you make whenever I yell at you or get upset with you.." Alex smirked to herself, Zane was so cute when she got angry at him, he got all bug eyed and like he wanted to be anywhere but there just made her want to drop her anger at him and aww, which she never did nope never.

"I don't like people mad at me, never have really." he said, thinking back to when his mum had yelled at him when he was little. "I guess that's why I never stood up to my brothers until now."

Yea, is she definitely had been drinking something, she would've been choking....

Staring wide eyed up at the staff table, her gaze having drifted over to where Destiny and the others professors were at the moment since she didn't feel like staring at everyone hugging Truebridge anymore, her hand paused halfway to her goblet when she saw-

WHAT IN MERLIN'S NAME!?

Her black eyes widened at the sight of...Lawson and...Lafay...and they....

Ewwwww!!! And...the lady lawson...was laughing? This was sooo confusing. Maybe that was the real reason Lawon was leaving. Crush troubles with Lafay. Oh yea...she was onto him and his plan to cover his plan-ish...things....

Alex smiled at him, "Well, I yell at you with a good reason beside I forgive you easier then anyone else." Alex told him kindly. "And your brothers will eventually relax and grow mature and realise what they did to you was wrong." Alex added thoughtfully playing with her necklace with her free hand.

"I don't care, I have the one thing that they don't have, and they never will have." he said proudly.

Alex felt her heart melt and she pecked Zane on the cheek quickly, "Aww that's sweet." Alex told him taking a hold of his hand with hers smiling at him brightly. Zane had courage and was very sly and cunning yes he had a lot that his brothers didn't.

Rae gave a face. A face that mostly said DUH, but not in a mean way. "Well.... Yeah.. But that's not what I meant... " Rae paused to take a look at the two of them.. Brace yourself Rae, "Evelyn, are we going to fix up the house this summer or the next school holiday?" She didn't know what Evelyn would want. "If we do fix it up this summer, we can still have our original plans... Just altered." Made sense right?

Sighing, Evelyn turned her attention back to Rae, for one, trying to get that really random and weird image out of her mind and two....she knew what Rae meant. However, the Slytherin didn't know what to say about it since well...she just didn't know.

Sitting silently at the table, the girl looked down at her fingers as she started to tap her nails against the table once more before nodding. "I suppose, we can start with that this summer." she muttered before looking towards the older Slytherin and giving her own look to the girl (Yea, she saw that 'face' Rae had given her. Pffft.) before calming herself down. "I mean, well what else are we going to do? I don't really have any big plans that I know of except, lounge around and well, i don't really know what you have planned if you changed anything. And whatever we don't finish, we can save for the holidays."

Seemed good enough to her.

Okay... They were getting somewhere. "Sounds good... Do you want to.. stay in the house while its getting fixed up? Or just go on different days and work a little bit here and there." Though she didn't see how it would be finished that way, she guessed it didn't need to be finished to live in, just the important stuff.

"Oh, and uhm, are we going to the house first or Destiny's for you and Xylon's house for I first." Did that make any sense at all? Rae almost confused herself with that question.

Knowing Evelyn and her awesome cleaning skills, and depending on how much the house needed to be fixed and cleaned, she was definitely going to crash right when they agreed to be done for the day. "I would say...stay at the house." Besides, she probably wouldn't feel up to traveling back and forth from Destiny's everyday or every other weekend.

Folding her hands together, her thought process paused for a moment however when she tried to understand what Rae's last question really asked. When she did though, a small real smile played across her lips as a quiet chuckle escaped her. "I will, definitely be going to Destiny's first. It'll seem more like...a sleepover then..." Then not going home. It'll be easier for her to do it that way instead of going straight to the house. "Do you want to go to the house first? I mean, to see what we really have to do to it..."

Bradin looked at Selena. "Hey Sel" he replied with a smile.

Then he looked at Emma again. "Most likely go back to California for 3 weeks then spend the rest of the time here there and everywhere" he replied. He travelled a lot during the summer. "Hi James" he said to the boy Emma had introduced him to.

He looked up and smiled when he saw his girlfriend slid into bench beside him. He clasped her hand under the table and gave it a light squeeze. They would be departing from each other for at least a month. He wanted her to come over sooner but his mother had told him it wasn't right to take her away from her family so soon. "Hi," he said resisting the urge to kiss her cheek. They were in the Great Hall in front of everyone and that would have been embarrassing for the both of them. "Are you ready for a Greenwood summer?" he asked her with a bright smile.

"That's fine." Rae could totally see why Evelyn wanted to go to Destiny's first. She then gave her a confused expression... Didn't she just ask that question?? "Errr... Well, I guess Xylon and I will figure out if we are staying at the house first or at his place first. either way you can just meet us at the house when you're ready." That was what she was asking right?

Seeing the confused expression suddenly Evelyn confused. What was that look for? "I meant like, just a small tour of the place before going wherever we were originally going. Unless, that's what you meant..." If that made any sense at all. But hearing what Rae said, the Slytherin decided to drop it and nod. "Alright then. Sounds good to me."

Now, that they had gotten that settled...what now? Perhaps food? Which shooouuuullld be showing up any minute now...Or, was there still stuff they needed to discuss?

Rae didn't think she had any more questions until she thought of the one who wasn't sitting at the table. "Is Destiny helping too? And if she is, then I assume she's staying too right?" That was logical to Rae but maybe Destiny would rather help then leave after every day. The more Rae thought about it, the more she wondered if Destiny was even told yet. Knowing Evelyn, she probably didn't tell her yet. "Did you tell her yet?" Hopefully she did, this would be a big shock otherwise.

Ohhhh riiigghhht...Destiny...

No, she had not told her friend as of yet. She hadn't found the right time, or way to even bring it up. How do you bring up something like this? She perhaps could've had her friend read the letters from home but they were either burned right after she herself read them, or she lost them. Which also reminded her, who in the school found those papers?

"No." she mumbled, glancing around to see if she could spot Patroclus or Josh to save her Destiny. Where did she go anyways? "I don't even know if I want to tell her..." The less people that knew, the better in her mind. It wasn't something that she wanted the whole school to know, but knowing that it was a pretty big piece of information, it was bound to get out sooner or later.

Marie was still sitting there... alone... waiting for Carter to show up when something caught her attention from the corner of her eye. She looked up at the staff table just in time to see Lawson kiss... LAFAY?

It's official, the man has LOST his mind. WHAT would possess him to do such a thing... and in front of his wife too.

Marie sat there with her mouth open not knowing what to think. Poor Destiny was standing there too, right in front of that kiss. She could only imagine what her friend was thinking. The girl hated it when Marie and Carter kissed so she had to be really grossed out by this. She was probably going to whip out her picture of a cootie at any time now.

Oh, no cootie pictures, just Destiny running away... and now Lawson was leaving too. She watched to see if he followed Destiny but he didn't. Instead he went to the Gryffindor table. The very table that Carter was NOT sitting at.

Putting her chin in her hands she looked towards the door wondering if Carter was even going to show up. She was really starting to get a feeling he wasn't.

She crossed her arms on the table and put her head down on them. This feast sucks, why did she even bother coming?

Selena smiled. "I can't wait," she said honestly. One month of staying at home with the elves then time to go! She couldn't wait at all. "I'm going to miss you," she said as she hugged him. One month... of being dragged around to functions with her mother... one month. Gr. She quickly made a mental note to get out as much as possible. Despite the million degree weather that was bound to come, and all the sun.

And because she had just decided to be happy - err, or something - Nancy was now grinning down the Slytherin House Table like a fool, a slightly crazy glint in her eyes. Yes, she was perfectly fi-OMG! She was going to miss all of that SO.MUCH. Sniff! And all the goodbyes would be hard for her, very hard. Though, she was going to see them all again...of course. Only when?

Just as her blue eyes had rested on Oliver - SNIFF!!! - for a moment, there was suddenly somebody tackling her from behind, obviously trying to throw her off the bench. Which they almost succeeded in. "Whoa!" The Prefect exclaimed startled as she flailed so as to not fall head-first into the lap of some guy sitting next to her. Yes, that would be a very bad last day then.

"Trixie!" After a few more flails - and maybe a little accidental smacking - Nancy had finally managed to regain her balance and was not grinning up at the girl who was clinging to her. And who had actual tears in her eyes. Gulp! "Aww, Trixie, it's not like forever or anything." Even though it definitely felt like it. "But...I can't...unless you like glue me to this bench or something." Cue grin. Though, oops, maybe not so funny considering the whole Reese/Torin incident at the end of last term. Better not give her any bad ideas.

"I'm sure you won't miss that much...besides you can write to me and we can meet up during summer and all." Nancy replied with a small smile, absentmindedly fumbling around with her Queen-crown from Aiden in her lap.

Trixie gave the Slytherin prefect a pout and an apologetic smile as she almost literally knocked her off of the bench and probably into some other unsuspecting Slytherin. That would be kinda funny though, albeit a little mean as well. So letting go of her favourite the blonde apologized profoundly. "I'm sorry" she muttered quietly but you couldn't blame her for wanting to hug her. It was her last day here after all. And besides, Trixie got emotional fairly easily.

Smack. Oww. Too much flailing. But Trix didn't complain. She got hurt enough anyway and it was the end of term. She wondered whether she would, or could beat her Hospital Visit record, 5 times, one she was accompanying however, because that totally wasn't her fault. Heh heh. "But it's forever at Hogwarts" she said still tears welling up her eyes and her bottom lip trembling slightly. Glue her to the bench? That sounded like a good idea. "I was thinking more tying you to a tree actually" she tried to make a joke. Whether it actually came out sounding funny or extremely serious was another matter. "With Professor Truebridge" she nodded. Then they could keep each other company couldn't they?

Trixie raised an eyebrow. Wouldn't miss her that much? Yeah right. Nancy had practically been one of thhe very first people the 5th year had met. "I'm gonna miss you loads" she pouted. Write to her? That's what Truebridge had said. Trix was awful at expressing anything in words. What ever she wrote always came out sounding completely wrong. "Provided your not busy of course....." she stated about the meeting up over summer. Though Trixie would love to.

She took a glance down the table, noting that Oliver was there talking to her cousin, emma. Oh goodness, knowing her sweet younger cousin, she was probably inviting him to the manor or something. In her mind, she was mentally willing him to come over to the part of the table with them.

Emma smiled. "Yes, but as soon as she gets here. I'm go to get her!!" she exclaimed, smiling happily. She couldn't say goodbye without leaving Maddie. It was impossible for Emma! Emma smiled. "Nice! That should be fun! Hanging out at the beach. Will you go surfing again?" she asked him. She was pretty sure that he would.

Belgium, huh? “Sounds like fun.” The Captain commented. “I'd love to learn another language. I can only speak English... and not very well either.” He smirked. Malfoy Manor? He looked along table, his eyes resting on the very girl they were talking about. She never really talked about her family... probably because of the memory loss thing, but it sounded like she was loaded if she lived in a manor house. Seriously, there were so many rich kids at Hogwarts - particularly in Slytherin. He looked back at Emma, his eyebrows raising. “Really? That's really generous, thanks, Emma.” But Trixie hadn't mentioned it – maybe the girl didn't want him there. He would wait and see if she mentioned it later. He looked back over at Trixie and then to the side of her, his green eyes meeting the vivid blue eyes of the girl he had been waiting to see: Nancy. He swallowed as he looked at her.

He focused back on Emma and a younger Ravenclaw kid she was introducing. He smiled. “Hey man.” He greeted him. “Look.. I'm just gonna go speak to someone. I'll be back” He excused himself and headed over to Trixie and the Prefect Nance.

“Nancy.” He said softly, touching her lightly on the back and taking a seat next to her. He leaned over slightly and looked intently at Trixie to see her looking tearful. “Shurrup, Memory Charm, or you'll set us all off.” God, he couldn't quite believe Nancy was leaving for good – never to set foot through through the grand school doors ever again. He averted his attention back to the girl in question. “Please tell me you flunked your NEWTs.” He smirked. “Tell me you have to stay and resit them next year.” He may be joking, but the lad sort of wished it was true. Nancy was one of his best mates.. seriously, they had been through so much together last year..

James definatly wanted to see emma in the holidays but he wasn't sure if he would get a chance so he thought he may aswell offer to have people over to his " You know that your all more than welcome to come round to mine in the holidays, were staying in france for most of the holiday and the house has a private beach, it's beautiful" he said while he smiled at everyone. He said house but it was technically a castle than a house but, that creates a far grander image as it was a more or a manor a small castle at a push
