Seeing the GLARE from the teacher, Ella looked down. Partly because she hated being told off, but also because there was the risk of laughing. But when he finally spoke, Ella totally agreed, then turned to glare at Savannah. "Yeah!" Huff.

"I didn't do anything wrong! I called her a rebound, but I'm telling the truth. And being honest is a good thing, right sir?" Ella stared expectantly at the Professor. If he disagreed with that, then... she'd be well confused. She was telling the truth though. The only physical thing that she actually started was throwing a chocolate frog at Savannah's head. Surely there wasn't a punishment for that...

PFFT. She unfolded her arms and turned to face the other blonde straight on. If Professor Zookara wasn't there, Savannah would be on the ground by now.

"You LIAR! This is all your fault! And you definitely meant to cause me harm." She growled. And maybe she should squeeze something else in there.
"And stop calling me 'THING'!" Merlin's Beard.

Adeline walked down the corridor exploring the castle studing the wall closely. She was so tired from running around the castle. She leaned against the wall and and sighed as she watched people walk past her.

Adam was talking some nonsense chatter with an older student when he thought he heard his name being whispered. He stopped in his tracks and spun madly,looking for the voice. Who was that?Many kids were now bumping into him and not saying sorry. "Who is that?"

Staaaaare!

Okay, this was worse than he had thought. And he had already thought that this was bad...well, what else to think when you find two blondies girls wrestling on the floor, trying to cause each other as much harm as possible. Exactly. And now imagine Jeremy's disbelieve when he found that this was even WORSE than he had expected it to be. Exactly, this was BAD.

"Something like this is never understandable." He told Savannah when the girl tried to reason with him. Without much 'reason' though. "I'm sure you didn't." Jeremy muttered sarcastically under his breath barely managing to suppress a snort. OF COURSE she had meant no harm. Yeah, right.

Getting the feeling that Ella thought he was on her side Jeremy quickly turned to face her, giving her the same look Savannah had just received. "Well, but there's something called subtlety which you obviously lack." In this situation probably on purpose. So no, she was not going to get out of this by saying she only told the truth. "So, even if Savannah here is a...a rebound then you don't actually SAY that into her face." Then quickly turning to the girl in question he realized how that might have sounded and added, "And I'm not saying you are." He didn't know...and to be honest, he didn't want to be dragged into this teenage drama too deeply.

"So, even though, I would love to stay and chat with you-" Snort! Totally. "I think it's time to see your Head of House." Was that grin he gave them a little wicked there? It wasn't that they would avoid detention but rather that he had the feeling that detention alone wasn't going to stop this.

"What?" she asked. "I did noootttt do a thing" she said then giggle. "So Adam, Whats been going on bud" she said in a weird voice then laughed really har. She skipped down the corrider with her arms up and giggled as she came back to him.

Aiden walked down the corridor on the fifth floor, his nose in his Charms notebook. He still needed to get that assignment done, but he was having trouble with the whole coming up with creative ideas aspect. His mind just wasn't cooperating right now. Meh. He wandered further. He heard some commotion up ahead of him, and so the seventh year brought his eyes up from his homework to see..

Ella and Savannah?

..... And Professor Zookara.

YIKES!

Both of the blondes looked all... disheveled. Gah, had they gotten into another fight?! As if last year's wasn't enough. Of course, he walked in on this little scene - which looked like it was ending, fortunately - so he had to inquire about it all. "Erm... what happened here..?" He scratched his head and looked between Ella and Savannah, then finally to their professor. Heh... Blondie One and Two looked like a right mess at the moment.

*blink*

So, Professor Zookara ultimately disagreed with Ella's views and apparently she was in the wrong for calling her a 'rebound'. Pfft! What a load of rubbish. Hehe. She couldn't help but snigger when he said that Savannah was a rebound. Was it so obvious?
"Yeah.. but.. she used to call ME a rebound." So Ella was returning the favour. This wasn't working out too well. *Sigh*

o_______O
Head of House?? Lafay? Ella gave a sort of terrified look at Savannah, because that Professor had the power to scare the life out of her. They were goners. "Yes, sir." She said moodily.

After Professor Zookara's bombshell, little ol' Aiden appeared. The reason behind all of this fighting. She didn't answer him promptly, maybe Savannah should do first because they were such a lovey-dovey couple... Moments passed, and she sighed.

"Oh, y'know, the usual. Your girlfriend turning psycho on me." She stated as if it was a fact. To be honest, it was. They had been in this exact situation last year. Fighting over Aiden, getting sent to the Head of House.. Merrrrlin. Ella glared at Aiden expectantly. Maybe he should break up with Savannah on the spot.

Savannah sent him a look, one that showed she was slightly offended by his sarcasm. And then he was going on and on and she got even more offended, her jaw dropping.

"THING's just jealous because of me, because like...yeahhh.."Cause she had Aiden.

Head of House? NOOOOOO!The head of house was SCARY!!! She was like going to get DETENTION and that thought alone scared her. She wasn't a bad kid, nope she was a good kid. Getting detention over tackling a thing? THAT WASN'T FAIR!

Savvy frowned, not saying a word. Errr....pouty frown if you will, there was nothing she could really say until....

Aiden decided to join the party!

A smile broke out on the blonde's face it dropped quickly. Savannah looked from Aiden to THING, not impressed.

"STOP IT!STOP IT!STOP IT!"She flailed, pointing her finger at THING. "Stop TRYING to make me look like the bad guy, you were throwing out INSULTS and saying LIES!"Savannah said, arms still flailing around. It stopped for a moment as she look up at Aiden, frowning.

"She called me a rebound, Aid..."Grumble.Grumble. Frowny face.

Even though, it probably shouldn't, Ella's statement about Savannah's calling HER a rebound spiked Jeremy's interest. So this had been going on for a while now? Their fighting? Presumably over one guy. Or they had had the same taste in boys before. And Ella being jealous? If Savannah had had a good reason then Jeremy might even have believed her a little. Maybe. This WAS about a boy after all so somebody had to be jealous. Okay, still, he probably wouldn't have believed her.

Dismissing both girls' comments with a small eyeroll, Jeremy was quite pleased to see their reaction to him telling them that they were going to see Hecate. Pleased him but also made him think WHY they were so terrified of seeing Hecate. Uh-oh. He had always suspected that she could be a little...scary.

Right in the middle of his thoughts about Hecate, they were joined by a boy who looked about the girls' age. A boy they apparently both knew. "Nothing, I've got it under contr-" Jeremy stopped mid-sentence when she heard Ella say 'boyfriend'. Hang on a second..."Wait...you're THE boy?" What a coincidence. "HE's the boy you two were fighting over?!" He turned to face the two girls shortly, obviously a little amused by their little group. "Well, Aiden-" That was his name right? He remembered him from his class. "-I think you might want to join us too." Not that it was his fault, but something made him think that by throwing Aiden into the mix their walk downstairs was going to be more interesting.

No, he wasn't being sadistic.

'That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful.' Eben Wallace read as he walked down the fifth floor corridor.

He looked up, awake from his deep thinking state, to see that there was a confrontation up the hallway between two girls and professor. Thinking it best to steer clear of the group so as not to be brought into the trouble, Eben sat in the window sill at the direct opposite end of the hallway to continue reading and contemplating the quote he had written down earlier that day.

Taking out a quill from his bag that rested comfortably on his legs, the boy began to write; jotting down what he considered beautiful.

Okaaaaaaaaay.....

*Blink*

So the Blonde decided to completely ignore the fact that there was a catfight consisting of her cousin and apparently Professor Jeremy as well right by where she was stood. Oh my goodness couldn't Ella keep herself out of drama at all? And guess who it was over. The guy it was ALWAYS about *rolls eyes* But she'd had too much drama in her life so avoided getting involved at all. Instead Trixie shuffled her way over to the far end of the Fifth Floor Corridor where she spotted a face she could have sworn she had seen before.

Yes. It was him. Out of that store. Eh the name of it slipped her mind, but she Knew that she KNEW him. He was that cute one. E....E..... EBEN! Yes that was it. "Hey" Trixie approached him with a smile and a slight tilt of the head.

Eben couldn't hear anything except for the scratch of his quill against the journal he was writing in. He paused and heard, 'Hey', and looked up to see a blonde girl smiling at him.

She was one of the smiley girls that he had run into in Diagon Alley when he went during the summer. The first time, that is.

"Hello." he replied. Name, name. Merlin's Beard what is your name Blonde!Smiley!Girl. Tiffany? Tabitha. "Trixie!" Eben exclaimed, perhaps a little too loud, but delighted that he was able to remember. Yes, she was the nice girl at the store.

"How have you been since school started?" the boy asked, closing his journal and wiping at the end of his pen with a spare rag in his pocket. Didn't need to get black ink all over the place.

There was an awkward couple of seconds where no one really spoke, and Aiden quick backtracked to make sure he had actually asked that question out loud. He must've because Ella eventually answered him. Sort of. "Psycho..?" Some more description might have been helpful. His eyes flashed to Savannah. "Quit with the whole 'THING' stuff." It was so annoyinggg. And childish.

He listened to Savannah's explanation, sneaking a quick glance at their professor to see his expression right now, then looked back to Sav. Insults? Lies? Palm-to-head. "What the heck is up with all this rebound talk?!" GAHHH. "Savannah, you're not a rebound. Ella, she's not a rebound. No one is a rebound!" Those were for basketball.

Ehhh. Zookara just looked totally exasperated by this. Heh... barely into his first term of teaching and already he's breaking up catfights. O.O THE boy? Erm... Wait, WHUT? HE join them? Awh, hell no! "Oh, you see, I actually have, uhh..." Drat! So much for quick thinking. "Right.. okay." At least maybe some good would come out of this? Maybe..?

Hold up.. "Join you where, Professor?"

Wait, where am I? Pam thought. She was just wondering around, and had gotten lost. She sighed. Maybe if she just kept going up, she'd reach the dorm. Well, she thought about doing that later. For now, she looked over the banister, wondering how big this castle could be. She wished her friend would come to find her, but, for now he was no were to be found. She sighed again, and leaned on her hand.

Sammy walked calmly down the corridor. She couldn't remember ever being in the area of the castle ... it looked the same as all the other corridors ... useful. She had her iPod in and was listening to one of her favourite songs at the moment - Song For The Painfully Inde by Tom Milson ... it's not very popular, but yaknow.

Good, so the boy was very much against this whole catfight over him as well. Very good. There were boys who liked that sort of thing after all. Good thing Aiden wasn't one of them. He still tried to talk his way out of joining them. And he didn't even know where they were going. For all he knew Jeremy could have invited him to join them for ice cream. Okay, very unlikely considering the circumstances but still.

With a slightly exasperated smile Jeremy nodded towards the girls before answering, "To Heca- I mean Professor Lafay. They need to have a talk with their Head of House." To fix this for once and for all. "Shall we then?" He mused with a very bad fake British accent, taking a step towards the stairs, before looking back at the trio with his eyebrows raised expectantly.

Savannah sat on the ground, frowning and not saying a word. Well, wasn't this a first? The blonde eyed the other blonde until Aiden spoke to her, making her roll her eyes. She was going to argue, make her point that THING was a THING and needed to be called that but she decided against it. It would make her look even more like the bad guy. So what did she do?

The seventh year looked up at Aiden, nodding. "Right...ermm...sorry about that."Savannah said, running a hand through her hair. She was totally lying, she wasn't sorry about anything that had to deal with THING. SAvvy sent Aiden a pitiful look.

Aha, TAKE THAT THING!

Aiden had just said it himself that SHE was NOT a rebound.

......now Aiden was coming with them to the head of house meeting thingie. COOL. Maybe he could be of some sort of comfort to her? She was scared, no point in lying.

Savvy nodded her head, looking up at both men before her. She looked back up at Aiden, still looking pitiful.

"Aiden...will you help me get up?"

Adam stood uncomfortbly by the 5th floor corridor. He was waiting for Fee, so that the two could catch up on life, and share memories and what not. He looked around, peering into the corridor to see if he could spot a glimpse of flying blonde hair.

Fee was on the way to the fifh corridor. She was supposed to meet Adam there.
Spending time with him was always fun.
Looking around for a familiar redhead she walked trough the corridor in the best mood she ever head.

Next to one of the portraits she finally spotted him.

" Hey Lion", she smiled.

"Hey snake..."He told her back hugging her. "Congratulations on you and ED, I heard the news, he's a good guy with a good girl...So besides that, what's been up with you...You already know about me, so we can skip that since Katie must've told you already..."Adam asked over her shoulder as he hugged her.

She giggled at their greeting.
"Aww thank you", she smiled,"i am really happy about it."
Seems like almost everyone knew about her and Edmond. Oh well.
She had no problem with that.
"Uhmm. nothing much lessons,homework and friends stole my time", she said,"what have you been up to?"
Getting their faces a ,little closer she whipsered in his ear.
"It will be better now"

"Thanks..."Adam said, then he whispered in her ear, just like she had done..."I'm not worried about her anymore." He told her. "Why are we whispering, no one's here?" He laughed at her. "I've just been hanging out a lot with friends, and trying to live a normal 11 year olds life- well what normal is for me, anyways.."He smiled.

Katie wondered into the fifth floor corridor, why was she here? Oh yeah, cause she felt like it.

Edmond was wrapped up in his thoughts as he walked. Where? Well, he didn't know to where, he had gotten lost...again. But, it didn't matter because he was happy. Yes, Edmond Malfoy was happy. He was so distracted that he almost bumped into someone, but stopped before it happened. Ed looked at the person who had gotten in his way and recognized her, "Hey Katie." he greeted.

Fee giggled as he whispered back.
" I dont know just for fun", she whispered again.
Living a normal 11 year old's life?
" Well whats normal?", she said," i dont know but some 11 year olds here are just all childish and others, like us, are not. Weird."
