As Benjamin passed the Potions room, he heard gurgling sounds andglass tinkling. He figured it was just Professor Lafay putting things in their proper place. He kept walking and turned at the entrance to the Slytherin common room, and went to the old room that was covered in dust and smelled like molded water. He didn't mind it though. He dropped his bag and went over to one of thesuits of armor and grabbbed the helmet. "You're lucky. you don't have to worry about people not liking you. You're just a......dumb suit of armor. Why in the bloody hell am I talking to a suit of armor? God. I'm pathetic."

After placing her belongings in her dorm room, Jaina made her way down into the Dungeon corridor. Again, she came to confront Ben, but this time, it was different. He was going to be let in to the secret that no one else knew. He would now know about her personal life---something no one at the school knew. This was a big step...even bigger than the fact that she was a metamorphmagus. She reached about where she believed the common room to be and waited. One of 2 things would happen---a Slytherin would come out and hex her or Ben would come out and talk to her.

Benjamin heard someone walking around around the corner. He got his wand out andpeeked around. It was Jaina. "Hey. Over here."He placed the old helmet on the bench and went to sit down, spinning his wand in his his hand. He waited for Jaina to come over to him and tell him what she was going to tell him in the library.

"Ben," she ran over and gave him a hug. "What I'm going to tell you can't go any further than us. Do you promise? I need you to promise, Ben. No harm will come to my parents." She loved them dearly even though she knew that she could never be like them. She was proud of what she was, but knew they weren't and never would be.

Hugo stepped in the corridor. Ehh, this place creeped him out. Imagine Fee needed to get through here every day to go to class and stuff. It was pretty sweet of him to go to this scary place just to cheer her up. Why was she sad and lonely? That wasn't right. He walked towards the entrance of the Slytherin Common Room and waited for his Feeflower to come out.

"Ok, I promise. I swear to god that nothing will come to your parents. My father and I will not even go to your house and give them a little visit. Now tell me what you were going to tell me in the library, just a little bit quiter. Like a low whisper. Ok?" Benjamin knew these walla had their own way of talking and he didn't want thier conversation to be told again. Especially to the wrong person.

Hmm. By the way that Finn was watching her look at what he was wearing, which he wasn't surprised by really. She was girl, so she probably cared a little bit about what she looked like. "Oh you do?" He asked, with a grin, although he really did have no idea what she would give him, because there was a bit of a difference in their builds. But maybe they could just cuddle and keep warm like that. Oh, he definitely liked that idea. But then....that was a typical Finn idea, so it wasn't surprising really.

Ooh. So it seemed that her studying wasn't going so well? Finn was tempted to offer to help her again, but after what had just happened, he had a feeling he would just distract her even more, which would not be clever at all, not if she intended to pass. "A headache?" He smiled at her. That was too bad, maybe he should come with her next time. "Maybe you need my help again..." Then he'd be able to stop her working so hard that she got a headache.

She liked the idea of Finn helping her study. He did have a way of making sure she learned something yet also kept her distracted just enough that she didn't over do it. "You can help me stud anytime you want."

Finally reaching her common room door Marie smiled at Finn. "Yeah I do." She then kissed him on the cheek. "Don't go anywhere, I'll be right back out." She then slipped into her common room and hurried down to her dorm room where she grabbed her green hoodie and slipped it over her head. That should keep her warm. If not she would just have to snuggle with Finn and steal some of his body heat. She then grabbed Jimmy's robes for Finn to wear and some walnut fudge... he did say he wanted chocolate right?

Once back out in the corridor she handed the robes to Finn. "I think these will fit you." Okay, so it was maybe a bit strange to be giving her ex-boyfriends robes to his best friend to wear so he could keep warm while walking with her along the pathway... but she didn't really care. She just hoped Finn wouldn't mind.

Leaning against the wall she waited for him to either put the robes on or tell her he didn't want to wear them. Whatever he was going to do though he better hurry. She had chocolate in the pocket of her hoodie that was screaming for them to eat it.

Anytime he wanted? Oh. That wasn't good to tell him. Haha. "Awesome..." But they wouldn't be doing any today, because he didn't really feel like it. "Just as long as you don't want herbology.." Because that was the one he had failed, not that he had really told anyone. He was keeping that on the low down. Super!Finn couldn't fail classes, hence why he was only taking the ones he was good at now.

Don't go anywhere? Finn grinned at her, regretfully letting her hand go. "Wouldn't dream of it." Not if Marie had chocolate for him to eat. He was not going anywhere till he got that chocolate, because it was nice and yummy. Finn leant against the wall of the corridor once she had disappeared. Finn did hope that she hurry up though, because he did want some chocolate noww....he needed something sweet.
Ooh. There she was. Finn grinned, taking the robes from her. He didn't really have to second guess who these belonged too, because well there was only one of ravenclaw that Marie had been close too.

"They will..." Because Jimmy and Finn were able the same size. He pulled them on, before offering his hand to her, because he had a feeling she might like that. "To the pathways then..."

Jaina took a deep breath. She had not expected this from Ben, but then again he was always surprising her. "My parents don't know I'm at a school for witchcraft and wizardry. They think I'm at a special hospital to help cure people like me." she whispered. The tears started to well up in her eyes and she looked down to hide them from Ben. "They have always thought that they could make me normal. I was excited to come here when I got the letter, but they wouldn't let me come. During the night, I dreamt that the letter said it was a hospital so they'd let me go. When I woke up the next morning, it said 'Hogwarts Hospital For Unusual Cases. It was just how I dreamt it, so I showed it to them again. They let me go and gave me my college money, which was only 2000 Euros, and let me go into Diagon Alley by myself to get my school supplies...I told them I was paying for the hospital ahead of time. I got this letter from them before the party," she said as she handed over the letter, still not looking up because now the tears were coming faster than she could control.



"Just so you know I've made my choice," she said as her watery blue eyes met Ben's, "I choose Hogwarts, my friends, and you."

Fee made it out the common room sighing a little,these days were not too good and she had no idea why.Taking the last step the blonde looked around for her boyfriend.It was really cute that he came down here just to cheer her up.And the girl knew hwo scary it could be down here. And then she saw him.not far away there was Hugo.Her Hugo.Tip toeing to him from behing she smiled a little.As the Slytherin finally reached him she covered his eyes with her hands."Guess who?"Hehe.

Marie smiled as Finn put on Jimmy's robes.They were pretty much a perfect fit. She never dreamed that they would be getting used this way. Eh, now Finn would be able to return them for her. There really was no reason for her to keep them anymore. She laced her fingers with Finn's when he held his hand out to her. "To the pathways."

Ben read the letters and it all made sense now. With each sentence that he read the more he shook. so he ended uplaying the letters on the bench and, sitting on his knees, he read the letters meticulously. he wasn't that far from the helmet he was talking to earlier, so after he got done, he threw the helmet across the room, hitting another suit of armor that crashed to the ground. He walked up to the suit of armrmor as it re-assembled itself, and hit the armor once in the chest with his balled up fist. With a shaky voice, and his head against the against the chest of the suit of armor, he said, "Jaina, you're a Slytherin if I ever saw one. Hahahahahaha!" Tears started coming from his eyes. He ran over to her andpicked her up, hugging her. He kissed her hard on the lips, and said, "And I choose you.Against all odds, and everthing we've had to go through thus far, I'll always choose you." Still holding her off of her feet, he set her down carefully, and kissed her on both cheeks. "Bloody hell that suit of armor is hard. I think I've broken my bloomin' hand. Hehehehe. It hurts like hell, but I can atleast move my fingers, somewhat.He looked around for something to wrap his hand with, and remembered he had a muggle t-shirt in his trunk. He took off his cloak, wrapped it around Jaina and tied it. "I'll be right back. don't go anywhere." He ran through the common room, and down to his dorm, and grabbed the muggle shirt. he ran out and back to Jaina, where he took his cloak back. He toff the bottom three inches of the shirt and handed it to Jaina. "I guess that's a famous muggle band or something. I don't know." He carefully wrapped his hand tight with the fabric and his hand instantly felt better. "You can keep the shirt. I've worn it once in all the years i've owned it. Let's go up to the Great hall and get something to eat." he looked at the letters and said, "Incendio." He wrapped his arm around Jaina and startd walking with her up to the Great Hall. "Well, I feel better. How about you?"

Jaina watched as Ben read the letter. She could see he was getting upset and was starting to wish she hadn't shown him the letter. She cringed when he threw the helmet and punched the suit of armor. When she heard him laugh, she had thought he had lost his mind. Slytherin? she thought. "Not hardly. I'm too darn loyal to what I believe is fair and it was fair that I come to learn to control my gifts." She was so happy when he lifted her up kissed her. She kissed him just as hard back with her arms around his neck. He put her down and she leaned into him for a hug after he kissed her cheeks. She held his hurt hand and shook her head. "We need to work on that temper of yours." She said as she wiped away the tears she was trying to stop. As he put his cloak around her she could smell the woodsy scent that she was so familiar with. She patiently waited for him to return, but hoped it wouldn't be too soon because she loved being in his cloak. The shirt he handed her had the same woodsy scent so she didn't mind giving the cloak back. "Eat, right," she said still looking down. She sighed as he led her down the corridor to the stairs leading up towards the Great Hall. "I feel a little bit of relief, but they're still asking for an answer. I also have to start looking out for myself now."

RAHHHH HE WAS ATTACKED! SMACK HIM!! It's the HEIR OF SLYTHERIN!! Hmm soft, girlish hands... Nevermind. "Err, Eino? Adam? Lafay?" he asked and smirked. "Yeah, I'm gonna go with Lafay," he said and removed her hands from his eyes. "Ohhhh it's Fee," he said in a totally fake make-believe voice. Then he gave her a major BIG HUG He snuggled her for a minute, then released her. "There, feel better?" he asked when he released her from his DEATH GRIP "What's up?" he asked and smiled warmly.

Fee giggled when Hugo tried to guess."Seriously do i have hands like eino or Adam?",the blonde laughed raising an eyebrow.Shaking her head slighty she kissed him on the cheek.He really radiate happiness to her."Yeeees its me",the girl nodded chuckling a little.And then he hugged her. Taking a deep breath Fee sighed happily.This was so mich better than being alone at the common room wihout your boyfriend."I want to be a ravenclaw",she murmured into his shoulder.Lookimg Hugo in the eyes the Slytherin smiled widely."Much better",she nodded,"just was a little mopy.Dont know why."

Harley skipped out of the slytherin common room and down the dungeon corridor, twirling and leaping as she did so. Because she was just TOOOO cool, not. She stopped, looked around before sitting down on the floor and stretching her legs forward infront of her before kicking off her shoes and wriggling her toes about and moving her feet in and dancy sort of motion. She wanted to dance *mellow*

Fallon walked down into the Dungeons. She'd been having the best time ever. She was still all full of butterflies from Leo. Cute adorable little Leo. Fallon stopped in her tracks as she saw some girl dancing through the dungeons. It was really weird, but for some reason it looked like fun. Fallon was almost tempted to join in. Almost.

Harley looked left then right then left then right, then jumped up to her feet and began twirling like a ballerina. After twirling a few times she stopped, noticing that someone else was there. Weeeeeell...this was embarresing. She bit her lip looking at the blonde girl before looking everywhere else. Then she waved. "Hi. uh...im Harley."

Fallon could tell that the red head was embarrassed. She couldn't help but giggle a little bit. "Hey Harley. I'm Fallon. And that looks like fun." She looked down at her feet glad that she was wearing shoes that were easy to put on and take off. She was really considering joining in now. It would help her get rid of some of this energy.

These dungeons freaked Hugo out. He couldn't believe he was here AGAIN. There he was, a Ravenclaw boy carrying a bunch of socks, standing in front of the huge Slytherin common room entrance, which he couldn't even go through! He would love to walk in there and see Fee, but he was only bringing some socks to Leo. Wasn't he nice. Putting on his best smile, brushing some dust off his Ravenclaw robes, he waited in front of the common room. With socks in his hand.

Jaina came out of the Potions Classroom and found Ben immediately. "He's coming," she smiled at him.

It took him little time to get out of the classroom, and when he did he had to pause momentarily to let his eyes adjust to the dim lighting of the hall. It was when they did that he caught sigh of Jaina and another boy. Curious.

Shifting the weight of the bag on his shoulder, he approached the pair with a small smile, nodding to the boy before looking to Jaina. "What's up?"

Awww hell. Better get this over with nice and easy. "Hello, Mr. Dakest. I'm Benjamin Trevors, and as I hear, you've gotten pretty acquainted with Jaina here. I just wanted to say thank you for saving Jaina from the venomous tantacula or a Devil's Snare. That was very gracious of you to do that and I'm proud you did. Thank you again." Benjamin reached out his hand to shake the boy's hand, and waited there for him to shake.

At the pretty 'acquainted', Sabel was all set to dart back a few feet should a fist come flying. Thankfully however, the boy decided to continuing talking, and saying things that had his eyebrows arching.

A few blinks left him as he glanced between Jaina and Benjamin and then down at the boy's hand and back up again. Why was he thanking him so profusely. He could feel embarrassment creeping up on him as he shook his head a little. "It...you..." Frown. Another glance at the hand before he took it and gave it a firm shake. "You don't have to thank me. And...it was more Arya than me."
