Savannah hesitated at first, she just looked at Rhea at bit unsure of what to do. The girl still probably didn't like her and Savannah could see that by the frown on the girl's face. Jeez, it's not like she did anything wrong ! Something deep inside her told her to be nice to her though, in the hopes that it might work on Aiden ? It was a long shot but she would still try it.

The bitter look quickly turned into a smile and she shook the dark haired girl's hand."Talk to Aiden about how nice I'm being ,alright ?"Savannah said one brow raised at the girl .If she was going to be nice to people she might as well have Aiden actually hear about ti.

Rhea was actually a little bit startled when Savannah shook her hand. She had half expected the girl to walk away but she assumed she must really want it to work with Aiden. Of course Rhea knew that the only reason Savannah was even speaking to her right now was because of Aiden but if it would get her to be nice even for a little while, she would just disregard the niggling feeling of being used.

Rhea shook her head and chuckled when Sav asked her to mention her being nice to Aiden. Wow, she really wanted to get him back.

"Fine, I'll tell Aiden you're...err..turning over a new leaf."

Savannah nodded her head, blonde strands of hair falling in her eyes. "Thanks."She said while smiling at Rhea. The smile wasn't a totally real smile but hey, it would work good enough. Shuffling her new Marc Jacobs shoes, she sighed. She didn't really know what to say about now considering she and Rhea probably had nothing in common.

"I thought you and Aiden were kind of a thing so that is why I was mean to you at first....."



Might as well admit the truth.

Rhea returned Sav's smile and nodded when she said thanks. Big improvements already! She looked down at the girl's feet as she shuffled them. At least she had good taste in shoes.

When she said she thought her and Aiden were together Rhea couldnt stop herself from laughing..hard. Sure Aiden was totally cute but she never looked at him as anything more than just a really good friend, her bestfriend actually, even though he was becoming more and more like a brother by the day.

"woooow..Aiden and I? that's a good one Sav."

Too bad Savannah couldn't have figured that out earlier.

*snort*

Savannah shrugged her shoulders, "Hey, two close people of the opposite sex, especially at this age usually result in some romantic feelings."She paused for a moment to look up at the ceiling. "I had a right to be worried."Savvy said looking in the girl's direction, smiling a tiny bit. Too bad Savannah was too busy worrying about her that she couldn't have like stopped Ella. Ughhhh.

Rhea shook her head. She could admit to having a slight crush on him when they just met but that was short lived. They were perfectly happy as bestfriends and she was sure that that would not change any time soon.

"Naaah, not with Aiden and I. I love him but like a brother, besides I've watched him break too many hearts." She laughed recalling her nick name for him, Casanova.

"Well I wish you hadn't been worried about that, maybe we wouldn't have started out on such bad terms."

As Rhea mentioned breaking hearts, Savannah frowned. "Wait....there were other girls besides Ella ?"If there was it was news to her. She had never heard Aiden speak of any other girl's besides Ella and Rhea. Then again though, she had only been here half of the term ! Savannah blinked while thinking about it, her ipod head phones hanging out of her Diesel Jeans.

Savannah nodded her head calmly as Rhea spoke, she defiantly wouldn't have snapped at the girl ,she might have even actually been nice to her."I really only dislike people if they go after Aiden or if they talk bad about me...."And Ella did both of those things. Those convos about her on twitter ? Yeah, she saw it.

Adams arm rested on Lori’s shoulders, and her head seemed to fit into his shoulder. Which was why she couldn’t leave, just couldn’t. Because they fitted together, perfectly. Adam couldn’t even imagine being without her for more than a few days, the mere thought of being without her was hurting him. So maybe Hogwarts wasn’t really home – everyone had to leave at some point. But, if Adam had the chance, he’d stay at the castle forever, and he was pretty sure many other students would agree with him.

“So if no one has hurt you, why’re you leaving?” Adam asked, rather exasperatedly. He didn’t understand! If she stayed, no one got hurt. But if she left, he did. It wasn’t fair. Looking directly into Loris eyes, Adam ran a hand through his hair and had to look away. He didn’t care how sorry she was, she was leaving him.

Lorelai frowned and shook her head. "Nobody understands! I hate leaving things, people. This place, it's a thing! It's where I got to know you, Goldie, B--Sarah, Miranda, Torin.. Where I got to know the little amount of people I'm going to be friends with forever. When we leave, we ABANDON this place!" Surely the emphasis on the word abandon would trigger his sense.

She had issues. Issues with abandonment.

Watching him closely, she wiped away at the tears that had began falling again and shook her head. "I thought you would understand, you KNOW everything that's gone on with me Ad. You were THERE last summer." And yet, he couldn't even look at her now.

Turning back, Adam looked at Lori as she ran off the list of people. He wondered who she'd stopped saying and missed out. "What about Brody?" he prodded. Of course, that had to be 'B-', because Brody was her best friend, right? And she hadn't mentioned her.

"We all hate leaving things, Lor," he whispered, pulling her close to him and speaking into her ear. "But if you leave now, you are still abandoning it. And Goldie, and Sarah and Miranda, and all of your other friends....and me." And it was true, wasn't it? Although she wouldn't be abandoning Torin, because he was leaving too, she'd be abandoning the rest of her friends.

Abandoment issues, huh? "I know! I do! It's just --you need to do your N.E.W.T.'s," he pleaded, saying the first thing that came into his head. Although he doubted that would work. "And you're never fully abandoning it! We can come back, if there's another Alumni Ball, and your kids'll come here? And you'll never forget it." THAT was the best he could come up with? Adam was panicing.

If she left Hogwarts, she was abandoning him.

Lori sighed once and shrugged. "We're not talking.... But don't worry about IT! I just wanna go somewhere, away from here, a place I can call home!" okay, she was fed up with explaining the point, but she just poured some more. Oh, Adam Stemp; and his inability to notice he was the key, the reason she had already stayed this term....

Snuggling closely into him, Lori finally wrapped her arms around his middle and just sat and cried. She didn't care that he was speaking, she didn't want to listen, she just wanted to sit here forever and cry her sorrows out; with him. Finally she muttered a response about people moving on and returned to crying. How healthy. Merlin.

"NEWTS?! Gosh, Ad, talk about first thing that comes to your head!" she was being insensitive now, but she seemed not to care as he obviously didn't understand. *pout* Thi was hurting now, she had brought on a decision that was hurting her and it had almost made him c-- KIDS?! "Adam, what in Merlins pink glitter collection are you going on about? Kids? I'll get old and forget! I always will! Everybody does!"

Oh, Adam.

They weren't talking? But, why? Adam couldn't understand; they were best friends, right? But when she said he shouldn't worry about it, Adam closed the mouth that was hanging open to ask why. If she didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't press her; she'd tell him when she was ready. "Where's that Lor?" he said, his gaze still muddled. "I mean, you don't get on with your parents, so thats not home. Where else are you going to go."

As Lori began to cry, Adam stroked her hair. He didn't say anything, not sure what he should. He didn't even know if she needed to hear words. Hearing her mutter something about 'moving on', he started. "But Lor, I - Yeah. Whatever you want to do. I'm here for you." And she was crying again, and so he went back to stroking her hair.

"I'm sorry Lori! It's just, I mean - uh..." he trailed off, shaking his head silently. Yeah, speaking of the exams they had yet to take hadn't been the best thing, but she wouldn't be a proper witch then! Heck, she'd only been studying for two years. "You won't forget. Yeah, you'll get old, but how could you ever forget about some place as special as Hogwarts? I mean, I know I wont; I learn't tons, made loadsa great friends... and met you because of it...."
