Emma turned away from Sebastian to hear Rex. "[B]Of course![/s]" she began, smiling at him. "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Oh Rex, nooooo! Aww fake brother, why are you feeling down right now? It seemed as if everyone was feeling down right now. Rex, Sel, Trixie, Oliver, her...... She shook her head. Focus on Rex. The blonde frowned and hugged him quickly. "Aww Rex, please don't leave."

Her mind lost in her thoughts, Ellie heard footsteps come up behind her and pass by. A boy was taking advantage of the nice weather and was taking a run, but she didn't really pay attention to him. That is, until he began to come back for her. Looking up, she noticed it was Hyun. HyunnyBunny! Ellie brightened with a smile as he jogged in place next to her. "Hey Hyun!" She greeted her friend whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

"Yeah, I'm okay. Just thinking a lot, I guess... In fact I'm actually really happy." She said with a light laugh. Considering the occurrences of the past couple days, Ellie was ecstatic. *dreamy sigh* Then she realized... Alex had told her something about Hyun. Right! Ellie's smile suddenly faded. "Hey!" She said, suddenly getting louder. She lightly (kind of) hit Hyun in the arm. "What is this I hear about you leaving? You can't transfer!" Ellie exclaimed. He wasn't going anywhere, if Ellie had a say in it.

" Thanks for listening to me" Rex told Emma." I have not seen Rene going on three weeks and I believe I messed up our relationship" Rex said to Emma. " It is not the first time I lost a fiancee, the other two left HogWarts, so I figure I must have done something wrong" Rex explained to Emma. " How can I stay at HogWarts when Rene is probably not coming back" Rex sighed." I am really depressed" Rex cried.

"No problems Rex." she said. She wanted to hear everything. If something was not going to well for Rex, Emma would want to fix it. Her mouth fell open. "No, I don't think so.. Maybe she had to leave on medical reasons? Or a family thing?" she said, trying to think quickly. "Hmmm..... Have you owled her?" asked her curiously. Emma hugged him. The blonde thought about the situation. Personally, if her crush/love left Hogwarts she wouldn't leave Hogwarts.. maybe that was just Emma. "Well, first of all we have to cheer you up and the second thing is that she probably will come back for Graduation. I mean you have to get your graduation stuff if you want a job at the Ministry.." explained Emma.

"Oh Rex. This is Sebastian. Sebastian this is Rex."

" Thanks a lot for listening to me" Rex told Emma." I remember she had the flu for two weeks, but she came back and told me she was over it about three weeks ago" Rex explained to Emma." I do not no where to send the owl" Rex said to Emma." I am not planning on working at the Ministry, just opening a dance studio" Rex smiled." Cheering me up is not going to be easy" Rex sighed.
" Hi Sebastion, nice to meet you" Rex smiled.

Jogging in place as Ellie was talking, Hyun listened to what she had to say which wasn't that much but whatever and he even looked weird when she seemed to dream away. Where was her head? Suddenly he saw that her smile faded away and she punched him, lightly that he hadn't even realised she had hit him, on the arm. He stopped jogging in place and stood still, eyeing her supiciously. "How....do you know?" he asked and sighed. "But...i have to.. My father found another job, which is far away from here." He sighed again, thinking he had to move *again*. But there was a good side at it. Well atleast for Hyun. "I'm going back to Durmstrang" he said promptly, his eyes actually started to shine with the thought of going *home*.. Yes, Durmstrang is and will always be his true home.

He knew he had to keep it a secret , that he went away. He didn't want anyone worrying or saying not to go, just like how Ellie was doing right now. He shouldn't have made friends because he knew he would only get hurt again when he had to leave.

Suddenly, Hyun started to blink rapidly, he quickly looked away so that Ellie wouldn't see. I mean, men don't cry! And when he was sure his eyes weren't watery he looked back, trying to chance the subject.
"So...what do i hear about you and Alex?" he said, his trademark smirk was coming back again.

"I cut up my arm really badly," said Kelley, pulling up the sleeve of her sweater to reveal a long, jagged scar on her arm. "It's not that I physically can't play Quidditch anymore, it's just..... I guess I'm still afraid."

Christopher laughed. He knew for a fact that Kurumi Hollingberry had called her dragon lady when the Professor had shrunken all of her bones! It was such an acurate nickname.... "Oh, the divination tacher is really nice! I rather like her class, though it's not my absolute best subject, my marks are fairly well. Hmm, is she?" He'd never gone to the hospital wing before, so he wasn't quite sure what she was like, though 'twas true, she was not a professor. "It's alright, I'm pretty klutzy myself. I've taken many falls this and last year, but fortuately none were all that bad, so I haven't ever had to go to the hospital wing!" He smirked.

Marie walked out to the pathway and sat on a bench near the entrance. She was hoping Matty got the owl she sent him asking him to meet her there. She hadn't seen him since he left the waiting room when she went back to see Jimmy so she was pretty sure he didn't know what happened... unless Mia told him.

Pulling her legs up she hugged them to her chest as she waited.

*Walking down the path he looked for Marie and saw her looking a bit upset. Running over to her he bent down and looked up at her.*
"Hey... What's wrong?"

"Haha, right." Sebastian nodded. Yes, keeping in shape was something he had to do, especially with what Selena told him. Even though Selena called him fat and he knew he wasn't, he still let it get to him. So he was going to excercise even more that he originally was. "Yeah, that would cool." He nodded. Having somebody to talk to while he ran would probably help. He wouldn't be lonely then.

As they were talking someone intervened and Sebastian stood their awkwardly, listening to his iPod. He didn't want to interupt them, so he stretched his neck from side to side, ready to run. Then, before he knew it, Emma introduced himself to Rex. "Hey, Rex, I'm Sebastian. I think he met before actually..." He trailed off, probably when he first came or something.

Hehe. "Nooo." She replied, chuckling slightly. "I can just never find the rest of you." Somewhat true, and somewhat not true. Everytime she wasn't studying, running, or sleeping…it seems like she couldn't find her friends, but then again, those times she wasn't running, studying, or sleeping was rather rare. However, that didn’t mean she went and befriended trees!

Hmm, oops? She was probably an idiot to think she could trick Patroclus. He was too smart. "I should've known Mr. Prefect." Smiling, she took a deep breath, placing her hand back in the front pocket of her jacket. "Well...I could be better I suppose." With a shrug of her shoulders, she nodded her head to the side as she took a few steps down the pathways.

Walk, yes?

Walk? Definitely!

Following the girls lead, Patroclus fell in beside her and began to stroll along the cobblestoned path, the lining trees, casting long shadows on the road ahead, whilst also framing the gorgeous sun, that seemed to be quite strong reflecting in the hazel eyes of a friend Patroclus found to be rather quieter than usual!

"Nothing gets past me! I am truly am untrickable!" Or at least he liked to think so!

Absentmindedly, the Prefect dipped his hand into his pocket, and pulling at his wand, and began muttering the banishing spell that had learnt in Charms, "Depulso" he uttered as he pointed his wand at a stick that was in their path, then used his wand to flick it away.

"Do I have to ask, or are you going to tell me what has got you down?"

He would ask if he had too, he wanted to get to the bottom of her problems, that way they could sort them out together!

Untrickable Mr. Perfect Prefect Lemur Boy. That was too long of a name.

Raising a brow as one of the sticks in their path was banished, she grinned ever so slightly as they continued on with their on with their walk. Hmmmm. The sun felt nice on her face, though it couldn't warm her up what with Patroclus wanting to know what's bothering her. "Just...stuff." she said with a shrug of her shoulders, kicking a stone and watching it settle a good few feet in front of them. "It's just like, I barely had a moment to breathe this year."

Gaze landing on a passing butterfly nearby, the Slytherin took out her own wand, pointing it at the colorful thing, and in a blink of an eye, the creature froze after a soft "Immobulus" could be heard. She'd never really examined a butterfly up close before. "Did you hear Owls and Newts were canceled?"

Suddenly, Hyun stopped jogging and Ellie stopped a few feet in front of him. She turned to face him "Alex told me..." She told him quietly. Apparently Alex knew everything those days. A firm frown was planted on her face while he spoke, but softened when he said he was going back to Durmstrang. Ellie smiled sadly. She knew how much Hyun loved Durmstrang and wanted to go back. "I guess I'm happy for you then... I'll just miss you." She said, lightly nudging him in the arm. Hyun was a good and entertaining companion. She'd miss him for sure.

When Hyun looked away, Ellie thought he looked like he was about to cry... But then he turned back around and mentioned her and Alex. Ellie blushed and laughed a little. She sort of wanted to jump up and down and squeal with Hyun, but... Hyun probably didn't squeal. Or jump around for girly things. "The rumors are true!" She told him with a laugh. Alex was Ellie's B-O-Y-F-R-I-E-N-D. Good word, boyfriend.

Patroclus kinda felt bad, he didn't want to dregde up bad feelings Evelyn had been forced to experience in the last few weeks, but he wanted to be there for her. He would be there regardless, but if she had on just opened up a little more, he would be able to help her.

But he wasn't going to push her, well not too much anyway.

"I suppose Josh hasn't really help with the whole smouthered feelings?"

Josh had recently been really getting on Patroclus' nerves, what with all the class disruptions and the constant professions of love for Evelyn, even after he had ended it, it was just wrong!

Perhaps it was due to the fact that he had let his feelings take over him too mush, but Patroclus' second attempt at The Banishing Charm was in no way success like the first go, "Depulso" he uttered, and pointed this time at the rock which Evelyn had kicked, yet it didn not move, but remained grounded to the path!

Annoying much!

That would be a slight understatement in Evelyn's opinion, yet she kept quiet about that. Patroclus had to live with Josh practically 24/7 while she only saw him in classes and occasionally outside of lessons. She didn't want those words to get back to him. Not when she was getting over everything and things seemed to be going back to normal. Well, as normal as they could be at Hogwarts.

"Yea, that had annoyed me for a bit." She didn't mind THAT getting back to Josh. He already knew that.

Reaching out, she closed her hands around the butterfly she had frozen, almost like a closed container around it just to make sure she didn't mess up it's wings or anything. "He told me he still loves me." she muttered, opening her hands so she could see the butterfly. Before all the disruptions in class started that is. "And it's not a secret of course that he's trying to get me back, but..." Sigghhh. "I don't know. My heart says one thing, but my mind says another."

Why couldn't the good moments in life be like this butterfly? Beautiful and perfect...and frozen in place.

" Oh, no that is terrible" Rex told Kelley. "Did you go to the nutdr?" Rex asked Kelley. "" Have you ever faallen off a horse or a bike, will playing Quidditch is the same, you just get back up their in the broom" Rex explained to Kelley." The hardest thing of fear is fear itself and you love sports including Quidditch is to beat fear" Rex smiled, " You can do it Kellry, I have faith in you" Rex smiled brighter.

" I thjk we met in the common room or in one of the classes" Rex told Sebastion." How do you know my "fake sis" Emma?" Rex said to Sebastian. " By the eay, I have a lot of girls who are freinds and not many male freinds, so I gues that I could not really remeber you" Rex explained to Sebastion.

It seemed to the LionBoy that Evelyn was still staying quite tightlipped, and as enfuriating as it was, he was happy to let it slide, because at least she was giving him something to go on.

"Only a bit" he laughed in resignment, "I can tell you, if Josh acted like that about me in front of everyone I would be going insane!"

Poor Evelyn was having her life paraded in front of every single class and it only bothered her abit? Either she wasn't welling to divulge that information, or she really did or had at one pointed loved Josh so much that she didn't want to hurt him, even though he was hurting her.

Oh the old head vs. heart, Patroclus never seemed to have this, but maybe that was because he had mastered using them as one, Yoga had taught him that, and it was now helping him to center himself and to banish the rock, third time was the charm, "Depulso!"

As the rock bounced along the path, Patroclus turned to Evelyn and held her hands with his left and then tapped the butterfly with his wand and said "Finite!" Watching it as it fluttered away, he continued to speak, "The thing is you can't try to stop either one of the two, like the butterfly, you heart and your head have to keep moving, and you need to either chose one to listen to, or trying to understand both of them"

He was wise beyond his years, perhaps it was because at the moment he was happy and everything seemed clear, and now he wanted that for Evelyn

"One charm down, one to go," Sierra thought to herself, as she headed out the corridor to the courtyard and down the pathways. As she walked, she passed by a few people that she knew, so she gave them a small nod of acknowledgment as she headed on. She had homework to do--and lots of it--or else she wouldn't be in such a hurry.

She'd be glad when the school year was up, which it almost was, really. Finals had started, which meant the closing feast would be soon, and then she'd be on her way home. Or, on her way to wherever it was her father now lived. She thought about her parents divorce as she made her way further down the pathways. It didn't necessarily bother her that they weren't together anymore, but she knew this summer would be something new to get used to.

She paused when she came upon an area that looked to be deserted. She placed her little bouncing ball on the top of a stump and then backed away. When she was a good distance away, she aimed her wand at the ball, and said, "Depulso!" She sort of half-laughed as she watched the ball bounce further and further away from her.

...and just because she'd promised her housemate she'd return the ball, she cast the Freezing Charm on the ball, caught it in her hands, and then turned to head back to the castle.

Emma grinned at Rex. "No problems. Any time. Awwww.. Do you know where her family lives?" she asked curiously. Emma's smile grew brighter. "A DANCE STUDIO?" A dance studio would be pureawesomeness!!!! "Hmm... How about you have a piece of candy!" explained Emma pulling out some candy. That always cheered her up.
The blonde laughed and smiled at him. "Great. Awesome. So, how have you been since the last time I saw you?" she asked, poking him slightly, which is what she did with all her friends these days. Poking was a kind of form of 'Emma' greeting.

" Yes, Rene's family is on vacation" Rex told Emma. " Yes a dance studio in Spain" Rex said to Emma. " Yes, I love candy, , love to eat" Rex explained to Emma. "Is Sebastion the one?" Rex whispered to Emma so only she could hear.
I am over everything now, Rene or no Rene, wedding of no wedding, I am graduating' Rex smiled.

Marie tried giving Matty a smile when he bent down in front of her but it didn't happen. She couldn't get the corners of her mouth to go up just yet. "Hey Matty, thanks for coming out here." The last time she seen Matty he was comforting her before she went in to see Jimmy. Now she was going to be telling him that she broke up with Jimmy while she was there visiting him.

What's wrong?

"I should have known you'd be able to tell something was wrong." No need in dragging this out now was there. "I broke up with Jimmy." She sat there and waited for the tears to fall like they had been doing all day but they didn't fall. Maybe she was just all cried out... like she had no more tears left in her. That would be a good thing because she was really tired of having puffy eyes.

Well that was settling. Huh. Hmm, Evelyn had pretty much already gone insane what with all the things Josh has done, but she kept quiet. As hard as it was, she did. Yet now...now she had a different view on things.

It wasn't so bad after awhile. She still got embarrassed but...it was all very...sweet.

Watching the butterfly come back to life and flutter away in the air, her gaze moved back to Patroclus, hazel eyes shining slightly as if tears were growing in her eyes. Of course, she'd deny such a thing. She never cried! Not in public at least.

Choose one to listen to or try to understand them both? "I don't even think I can understand one on it's own." she said quietly, glancing back to the butterfly. It still was close enough... "Much less listen to one when the other is just as loud." Raising her wand, she pointed it at the butterfly. "Depulso."

As the butterfly vanished from site, to who knows where, a simple smile appeared on her lips as she silently sighed. "It'd be easier to just banish one, and then listen to the other."

The boy felt he had the Banishing charm well in his control now, and it seemed that Evelyn had perfected the Freezing charm, so the LionBoy decided he would follow her lead and perfect it as well. And it seemed that the powers that be, decided he was right, for at that moment, a gentle breeze rustled through the trees that lined the road and caused the leaves of one of them to slowly cascade down upon them.

With his wand poised and ready, he gave two short flicks at one the leaves and uttered, “Immobulus!” the spell reached its target and seemed to slow the leafs descent, but it did not freeze it. So picking another leaf he tried again, two short flicks and “Immobulus!” and this time he was successful, the leaf stopped, and against the background that had fallen still once again, it appeared like an image, a Muggle one obvious, for it was frozen, like a moment in time!

But it seemed that their moment wasn't still for Evelyn's mind was still racing between her two choices "If only it were that simple," he grinned, choosing not to draw attention to the emotion in her eyes, he knew she was not one that liked to be vulnerable, "But what you have to remember is that with every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, you can banish your mind, but when it comes back it would be louder than every, and if you banish your heart........welll I am sorry my dear," he began to laugh, "You would be dead!"

Not a pretty sight!
