Diggy was bored and when he was bored he liked to wander around. And this time he was on the ground floor just looking around at everyone else coming and going. He was leaning against a wall in a shadowed corner. He found people didn't like to be watched. It didn't bother him so much with 6 brothers and sisters but it bothered other people. So he liked to do his people watching from the cover of shadows.

But he spotted Trixie one of his Quidditch teammates talking to a Gryffindor he had never seen before and since he was bored and had nothing better to do he thought it would be nice to meet more people. He sauntered over to them and gave Trixie a big smile. "Hey," he said to her. Though they were teammates they had never really had a conversation. He turned to the Gryffindor. "Hi, I'm Diggy," he held out his hand for her.

Trixie laughed as Cammy told her that she did the same. Ah well she couldn't blame her, I mean he was sarcastic and annoying the majority of the time. And so was Trixie. And she gladly admitted it. "Glad you agree" she giggled. Because it would be a little awkward if she didn't.

Trixie laughed again but shook her head. "I didn't even know that I was that strong, but Physical violence isn't my thing" she reassured her. Trixie had her way with words and she could manipulate them so they were hurtful. Even though she didn't actually mean to do it. It just kinda happened. And it was her weapon when she was angry. But the majority of the time, Trix was lovely. "I can play whatever Oliver wants me to play," she said. "But I've got to admit, Chaser is my favourite position. Give me a beaters bat and you may loose half your players" she giggled.

Trixie looked over as another person approached them. Oh what was his name? Diggy right? He was on the Quidditch team, at least she thought he was. Yeah. He played at the last game. "Hey" she smiled before turning back to Cammy.

Hermione walked up the hourglasses after a quick lunch, quite pleased to see Slytherin in the lead. She sat down and gathered her thoughts.

He smiled at Trixie as she spoke to him. "Hey," he answered back. "Hows it going?" he asked her lightly. He was bored and he was looking for someone to talk to and a housemate and a teammate seemed a good choice and even the girl Trixie was talking to seemed nice enough for him to talk to.

Rhea wandered the castle trying to clear her head. It had certainly been a rather rough week and she hadn't seen Aiden since their little fight on the pathway. Everything seemed to be going topsy turvy. Her and Savannah were just short of actually being friends and now her and Aiden were fighting. What was next, the Headmaster flying in in a helicopter? She sighed as she stopped in front of the hour glasses. HufflePuff were in last place, was there anything going right?

Aiden decided to make a detour to the hourglasses, just to check out how those Gryffindor house points were coming along. Hmh. Well, at least they weren't in last anymore. His eyes landed on another student who appeared to be checking out the point as well. Shampoo-commercial hair. It was Rhea. Siigh. He felt really badly about losing his temper on her the other day, and it seemed that now would be a good time to apologize. "Hi, Rhea."

Rhea was staring at the hourglass and frowning when a familiar voice caught her ears. She turned to look at him and crossed her arms.She was still quite upset with him for going nuclear on her the other day and her mood hadn't improved much since then.

She thought about just walking away but regardless of what went on between them and how mad she was at him, he was still her bestfriend and she missed him.

"Hi Aiden..."

Okay, so the tone of her voice definitely gave away her feelings toward him at the moment: mad. This was expected, though. Why wouldn't she feel that way when he'd been such a git. Aiden sidled up next to her. "Look, I'm sorry about getting all bent out of shape the other day," he apologized. And this was a pretty big deal; Aiden was horrible about apologies, and he wouldn't deny that he had trouble saying them to those who deserved them. "You just said how you were going to leave, and I guess I just really wasn't expecting it, so I basically threw around some words I didn't mean." He ran his fingers through his hair and peered back to the hourglasses.

Rhea once again shifted her gaze from the hourglass to her best friend as he apologized. She suppose she couldn't stay mad at him especially since he was man enough to say sorry. She had gone all emotional on him though and she supposed it was a bit unfair to force him to deal with that, he would be getting enough of that from his girl friend. She sighed.

"It's fine." She shrugged. She forgave him, why shouldn't she? He had been an awesome best friend and now that she wasn't high on emotions she saw the logic in his reasoning. She just had to be strong and tough out her final year.

"I guess I'll stay.."

Phew. He was forgiven. It would have sucked to have said all that and then be totally denied. Now they could just put that little fight in the past and move on. Oh, she was staying! He suddenly smiled and gave her a small shove. "Good! Otherwise it would have been my duty to tie you up and make you stay." He knew she wouldn't regret it, though. How often does one graduate Hogwarts, after all?

Rhea grinned at him as he shoved her gently. Now that they kind of talked, she was feeling better about her decision. Besides, she had her best friend she wouldn't be completely alone here after all.

She laughed at his comment. It was such an Aiden thing to say. Tie her up? Pfft!

"Uh huh...riiiight. I know you're terrified of my awesome ninja moves." She smirked.

"Besides someone has to be here to take care of you and keep you out of trouble."

Aiden grinned. It was much nicer now that they were back to their normal teasing tactics. "Ninja moves? Hah. You wish." And what was this about taking care of him and keeping him out of trouble?! Pfft. He was just fine taking care himself, thanks very much. "I am perfectly capable of keeping this Gryffindor out of trouble." Well. Maybe not entirely. But still.

Rhea raised an eyebrow and looked at him.*double blink* Did he not know how awesome her ninja moves were?
"I don't wish Chevalier, my ninja moves are super awesome!" She put a smug look on her face as she looked at him. He should know by now how awesome she was and she.

"Don't worry, not many people know that I'm a secret ninja." She rolled her eyes at him when he said he could keep himself out of trouble. Yeah right, thats why his life was so dramatic and he was getting into fights, pfft.

"Sure you are, and I'm married to Merlin."

"You have no ninja moves, Rhea. Ninjas are too cool for you," Aiden added with a smirk. Who knows. Maybe the girl did know karate or something like that. "And fine. So maybe I do tend to get into some trouble, but that's only because it just.... happens!" Nothing intentional, right? Just some love pentagons, which turned to octagons, to fake relationships, to kissing girls, to fist fights, to friend fights... and, and. Well, that was enough. He smiled, though. "Well, now that I'm dating Ella, I don't plan on all that drama following me around."

He pulled out two nearby chairs and slid one over to Rhea before taking a seat himself. "What's been up with you, besides fights with your best bud?"

Rhea gave a shock hurt look and put her hand to heart. Of course she knew nothing about karate or anything like that but she was totally waaaaay cooler than ninjas!! *pouty face*

"So trouble just walks around the corner and bumps into you eh? Riiiight!" She smirked, mabe the boy was going to turn over a new leaf and actually behave himself.

"Good I'm glad you're deciding to behave yourself." She pulled the chair that Aiden slid over and plopped unto it, watching the hour glass. She watched as a ruby gem dropped in and frowned.

"Well, I guess I need to unpack my trunk because I really was planning on just disappearing." She shrugged.

"But really, just dealing with being single and stuff. I wish you had hot guy friends you could introduce me to, jeez."

"Basically," Aiden said with a nod. It's not like he planned on getting all wrapped up in such complicated stuff; it just happened. "And I'll try, at least." To behave himself, that is. It would be much easier with Ella there, too. He glanced at the four hourglasses then back to Rhea. Pfft. Unpacking her trunk. "Yes, you better get on that. None of this 'leaving' bologna." When she said the comment about hot, single guy friends, he laughed. "Well.. let me see. There's Patrick - yes, I'm sorta friends with him now, in spite of that fight we had.." He shook his head. "But he's dating Vanessa. And there's Cody, but he's dating Delanie." He paused. Oh! "Wait. There is actually one of my guy friends who does happen to be single.." He lifted his eyebrows and looked at Rhea. "His name's Drew. He's a great guy, too.. I could set you guys up." Drew seemed to be in the same situation as Rhea, too. Recently broken up and depressed and all. So, they could even relate.

Rhea nodded. Aiden behaving seemed as likely as snow falling in Jamaica even though he didn't intentionally get himself in trouble. She laughed when he said she better get on it. She had removed some of her clothing from her trunk just not all of it.

Her eyebrows raised when he started mentioning guy names, she had been half joking half serious about everything but it wouldn't be totally bad meeting a new 'friend.
"Err I don't mind meeting your friend and I don't want you playing cupid either." She laughed. For all she knew the guy might not like sitting by the lake which was like her all time favourite thing to do.

Aiden grinned and rolled his eyes. "Do I look like Cupid to you? Cupid is pudgy, and naked, and carries around bow and arrows." But he was glad that she agreed to at least meeting the guy. He didn't want to get ahead of himself, though. Aiden still needed to ask Drew. "Well, I'll talk to him tonight." One of the benefits of being roommates in the dorms.

Rhea grinned, boy had Aiden walked into this one. She looked him up and down then smirked and poked him before replyng.
"Well, you certainly have the pudgy part down." She giggled a bit and stepped away from him in anticipation of a playful shove or something.

She raised both eyebrows when Aiden said that he would speak to the boy tonight. So he was a gryffie then.

"Oh he's a lion cub I'm guessing.."
