Edmond let out a sigh. Ah! He was tired of all this drama maybe...maybe he should listen to his father and not protest against his decision. Ed could still feel the letter that was crumpled in his pocket and it seemed to weight a lot more than it did several minutes ago. "Adam, it's that way," Ed said pointing at the opposite direction Adam had gone. "Maybe helping you is the last thing I get to do for you here." although, part of Edmond hoped to fix things with Adam before he left.

Adam walked away without looking at Edmond. Ok- so they still had drama, but Adam couldn't figure out any other ways to gain his trust back. Then he saw a look of concerndness on his face. Adam looked up and asked Ed,"Besides us, is everything all right with you, man?You look worried?"

Edmond just looked at the floor, not sure if he wanted to tell him, but eh, what else could happen? "Um...my father..." he couldn't even say it, "I'm leaving Hogwarts, Adam. I bet that's going to make you real happy, eh?" Ed said, with a smirk trying to hide his sadness, although it was taking a lot to do that.

"Just because we are fighting , doesn't make me happy hearing you are leaving Hogwarts...Don't you really dislike your dad? Why is he taking you out? Seems complete unfair to me...I would hate to be taken out..."Adam said, now he was really feeling sympathic Ed, he had gotten beat up by his cousins and now his father was taking him out. "Is it because you are a Malfoy but in Gryffindor?"

It made Edmond feel slightly better that Adam seemed to care. "I like my father, it's just that I don't see eye to eye with him in certain things." Ed explained, "He found out that my cousins were the ones that beat me up during the holidays and thinks that I should go to Durmstrang so I can toughen up." He shook his. Ed didn't want to go to that school. "Yes, it's part of that too, but there's nothing he can do about my house."

Adam nodded as he listened. Now really that was no reason to send Ed to a different school. Ed could just talk to some guidance counseler or something right? "That's not fair, why won't you talk to a teacher you trust, they might be able to help you out..."Adam said angered himself for is friends future.

Ed looked away, feeling a bit ashamed. He wasn't close to any of the teachers here, he didn't even remember some of their names. "Once, my father says something, it goes without questions being asked," no one could change his mind once it was made up. Plus, he was angry at everything that involved Hogwarts because of the whole Gryffindor/Slytherin thing. Edmond smirked at Adam, was the guy mad? "You can't possibly be mad about this?" and this is where Ed would see if there were still chances of them becoming friends again.

"Well mad no...But it's completely unfair to you- you're by best mate-no matter what's happened to us, and I can tell you don't want this for you at all- so I hate it when my friends are mad...I'm sorry to hear that...Maybe we should just travel the world and leave your dad behind?Sounds like an idea?"Adam nodded.

Edmond couldn't help but chuckle at Adam's idea. Traveling the world sounded like a nice idea and he had enough Galleons in his Gringotts account to survive on, but fleeing from a problem wasn't Ed's way. "Traveling sounds great, but my father would probably hunt us down," Ed laughed. This was actually the first time in the entire day that he laughed, leave it all to Adam Burn. "So we're still mates?" Ed asked curiously.

"I want to be...And man, you're lucky to have Fee and I'm lucky to have Kurumi...So what's the point of fighting right, if we both found the right girl...?Traveling the world would be cool but you mentioning your dad hunting us down sounds really paranoying...And scary too, I'm sorry, mate...If there's anything I can do.."Adam offered.

Edmond nodded, "Yes, I am," of course he was lucky to have Feenella. Ed then laughed when Adam said that the thought of his father hunting them was scary, "I guess you're right." Ed then grinned at Adam for the first time ever since their fight, "It'd be nice to enjoy my last days at Hogwarts with my best mate." he said and yes, he did refer to Adam.

Adam's eyes bugged out, had Ed really just said that. "Well when are you leaving- I'm all free to do whatever you want today- and don't forget to tell Fee- she's most important for you to tell here at Hogwarts...He added, with a point."Maybe I'll contact you when I get older and we can travel the world for at least a year?"

"I don't know when," Ed said, lowering his gaze, "Father just said that he would come get me when he saw it appropriate, I received the letter today though." the awful-life-altering letter. "Yeah, but I'm not sure how to tell her." that's what worried Ed the most. He didn't want to hurt Feenella. "I don't want to hurt her." he said. Edmond then smiled and nodded, "That sounds like the greatest idea you've ever mentioned." Edmond smiled. He was glad that he and Adam were back to being friends.

"Well first of all tell her the truth- girls are in love with the truth-even when it hurts, but then mention that you will do your very best to keep in contact and love her, that will make the situation better...And thanks Matie, I just saw the movie around the world in 80 days and feel like trying something close to that."Adam smiled, were they back to normal...

"Yeah, you're right." Edmond nodded, knowing that Adam was right. As much as it would hurt, Ed had to tell Feenella the truth, "It sounds like an interesting movie." Edmond said, having never watched that one. "Hey, maybe Fee, Kurumi, you and I could do that when we graduate." he commented.

"NICCCCEEEE...."Adam said happy. "I hope everything between you and your father and telling Fee the truth , I hope it all goes alright...And man- I'll take care of her- but she will always be here for YOU...Trust me on that...I'm gonna miss you and our random chats and such..."Adam smiled ,sadly, going back to memory lane.

Ed nodded his head, although the news he received that day had completely tampered his spirits, he felt slightly better. "Thanks, man." Ed said, clapping Adam in the back, "I know you'll take care of her," Ed said, he knew that Adam was a good friend and would keep his word. "I'm going to miss all this too." Ed slightly smiled, as he remembered everything that's happened since his arrival at Hogwarts.

Aiden walked along the second floor corridor, hands in his pockets. He was even feeling inclined to whistle, but he kept himself from doing so. Thaaaaat'd be embarassing. Really, he wanted to be strolling about and wandering the the ground outside, but he wasn't feeling motivated enough to grab all his winter stuff and pile it over his body. Not at the moment, at least.

Hence, the corridor would just have to suffice.

Corridors, she had walked down these corridors many times. The blonde huffed, running a hand through her straightened blonde hair. Oh how she loved her hair right now, she seriously just wanted to SNUGGLE it and it's pretty shinyness.

She carried the pink bag in her hand, designer of course, that carried all her book. Savannah was too busy, too busy listening to the music BLARING in her ears to really pay attention where she was going. She had enough coordination to do both right?

Wrong.

She crashed into someone, ear bud popping out of her ear and books falling all over the floor.

"SERIOUSLY?!" Great, just great.

Aiden always wandered, but he never really sorted out where he wanted to wander to. Eh. He needed to work on figuring out a destination before he started meandering around this school. He continued further down the corridor until he suddenly collided with someone. Or, rather, someone collided with him.

Books were sprawled onto the floor, and he kneeled down to pick them up. He looked up to hand them to whomever it was, and that's when he realized who it was..

Savannah.

He cleared his throat and stood up, handing her the books. "Seriously," he mumbled in confirmation.

The blonde looked down at the ground, shoving her ear bud in her pocket. Yeah, she wasn't even BOTHERING to pick them up, she was too cool for that. And besides....it was THIS kid's fault they ran into her. Even though she ran into them

Savannah rested a hand on her pocket, registering who's voice it was after a few moments. Again, SERIOUSLY? Aiden. Pfffft. Wasn't this ODD running into him. The Slytherin looked at the boy, taking the book from him. She eyed him for a few moments, unsure of what exactly to say.

"Uhm....right...thanks..."

What else could she really say? It was too awkward.

Yeah.. okay. This was awkward.

"No problem."

...

He glanced around the hall. It'd seriously be really helpful if one of his friends showed up right now. Or even one of her friends.

No such luck.

He looked back to her, shoving his hands in his pockets again once she took the book from his hands. "Right, well.." Nod. Just nod. "You've been all right, yeah?" Pfft. In lieu of the weirdness, how are you?

Savannah shoved the books in her tote bag, looking away from him. Where where her friends when she needed them? Like Lori or Cam, they were prefects and they should be like WANDERING or something? Of course they weren't wandering where she WANTED them to wander.

"Ohhh..."Eh, Savannah frowned, trying to think of an answer."Yeah, I've been okay."

Translation;I've been CRAPPY and I'm kind of mad at you.You hurt my feelings

Of course, these feelings weren't from jealousy, just the fact that he had moved on so quickly. But then again she moved on quickly too though, it was different, totally different though. She SAID it was different.

"How about you?"

Meh. *sigh* This was awful.

"Good.." Aiden nodded again. He knew very well that Savannah did not give answers like that and actually mean them. Huh uh. She didn't give four word answers.

He almost came right out and said something mean. Something like 'What? No cheating on your current boyfriend so far?' But nope. They were being good right now, and he held his tongue.

Hooray for civility.

"I've been well, thanks."

Yeah.......

Eh. He knew something was up, she could tell just by the tone in his voice. Was there really a point in lying to Aiden with this stuff? Nah, not really...he knew her too well for her to get away with that stuff. She wasn't going to ADMIT why she was slightly mad though, nope he would just get mad too and things just wouldn't be good.

Considering all he cared about was his new little girlfriend. He was happy, that was all that mattered, right? Yeah, right and Torin made her happy...well, kind of. Her feelings were still hurt but that like...didn't matter did it? Nope.

"So....uhm..."Awkward silence....."I'm with Torin now..."Awkward. Just a random fact in case he didn't know."And I hear you are with...."THING. She wanted to call her THING but then he would get mad. So she just skipped over the whole name thing..."again."

Yeah, he should be happy. She wasn't INSULTING her.
