JUMP! DUCK! MOOOOOOVE! Sammy couldn't help but dictate her movements, because remember, FOCUS IS REQUIRED FOR THIS SORT OF SKILL. Then she heard something, something soundly oddly like her name, a something that sounded oddly like Everett calling her name. Well he had some nerve. Sammy, being the professional she was at Jump n' Duck, managed to get out of the way of the tree without injuring herself, a skill not many people possessed.

Deep breath Sammy. Deep breath, stay cool. Don't turn into the Hufflepuff Hulk she instructed herself making her way over to the jerkfaced poodle. "What the bloody hell do you want poodle?" she asked, obviously not too happy with him talking to her and her not being able to hit him with a stick. Curse Amy for not letting her keep her protection stick.

Everett was glad there was no immediate violence, or arguing when Sammy came over. Even if she looked about to start a fight. Ignoring that she called him a poodle, Everett spoke. "I just wanted to say sorry about the whole serenading you thing the other day. I shouldnt have done it. I get that now." Everett wasn't used to apologising when trying to be heartfelt. It was... weird.

"Exactly... especially with all the responsibilities." Though secretly Aurora would actually have loved to be a prefect - maybe it was the little bit of authority it came with... Even so, she was pretty certain that being a prefect would mean following rules and spending her free time doing... prefect things.

Aurora's eyes widened, "Oh Merlin, no! That would just be careless and dangerous!" Imagine that! One accidental sip of a potion and she could have died! Obviously not all of her mother's potions were dangerous but the ones that were were very dangerous... "Though we did have to evacuate the house a couple of times." she added. Yep, experiments sometimes went wrong... "But wasn't it good having them there if you hurt yourself..? I mean, my Mother used to be able to make us better whenever we were ill... but she made me drink this horrible blood thickening potion once..." Aurora cringed, it had been disgusting and, worst of all, it had made her chubby!

"I've never been to South America... I'd love to go." Not that she knew anything about it - but it was somewhere she'd never been before and she wanted to go everywhere...

Oh. So now he was sorry? Brilliant. Just brilliant. Good to know that he'd got his head back on straight. But whilst he was in an apologizing mood Sammy was going to get some answers. "What made you do it? Use me to make Amy jealous?" she asked, crossing her arms across her chest. She wanted him to admit that he liked Amy, because it was bloody obvious. Either that or admit that he used her because she wasn't smart, and that he didn't think she would figure it out. She just needed that, and really after using her it wasn't too much to ask.

Rose snarled quietly at William, before looking to Harvry. 'Saving your butt, what does it look like I'm doing, walking my dog?' she asked simply. That would be impossible, she didn't have a dog... She had a cat! But she couldn't walk her... 'I'm not letting him hurt my friends.' she said, still staring at William.

"I am still your friend? " he asked in surprise. He beamed "Well I dont want him to hurt mine!" he blurted out. He tried to move Rose out of the way.

Rose raised her eyebrow. 'Why wouldn't we be friends?' she asked curiously. Had... Something happened since they last saw each other? Rose stayed firmly in place. 'You ain't moving me, Harvs, he won't do anything, he wouldn't.' Rose shrugged. He wouldn't, he'd be too afraid of losing points.

Harvey looked at her "Well after what happened last time we met, I thought that you hated me... but I guess I thought wrong." he said as he smiled, he then looked at William as Rose said that he wouldnt do anything. Harvey was not convinced, anything could happen right now whether he was bothered about points or not.

Rose rolled her eyes. 'I thought we already spoke about that, I forgave you, remember?' she said in a 'duh!' tone. 'Naw, I've had worse from a Hufflepuff than I can get from him!' Rose laughed, remembering that episode at the beginning of the year when Nessie had hurt her for something she hadn't even done...

"I know.. i know.." he said going slightly red at having thought that she did not REALLY forgive him. "You have?" he said looking at her. But she was alive so that told him everything. She was a strong girl. He smiled.

WOW.

Either I was going crazy, or somehow Cinderella was glowing. ...Nah, I was definitely going crazy. And she was holding my hand. Little lights were going off in my head. DING DING DING DING. It basically went like this: WORKWORKWORKWORKWORKDEEEAADDD.

Yeah.

"Gazebo" Gazebo. Funny word, that. GUHHH. ZEEEEE. BOOO. Heh. Heh. Hehhhh. Wow. I'd really lost it now. "See. Grounds." I repeated slowly. "Good?" Slick. "Good. Guhzeebo is good. Yes." I nodded in appreciation at my ability to form words. Or not.

Oh god...

Honestly, it didn't matter to him that she didn't feel quite the same way about him. Nor he was asking for that to happen either. Why? No idea. At least she didn't comment on it, nor decided to disagree with him somehow. That was very nice of her.

Either way....Herbology, yes? Yes.

The book was back in her hands, and they were studying water plants, so it seemed.

His attention was not on the book, but on Ellie. However, that didn't distract him much from asking another question. One that was Herbology-related, of course, they were past talking about themselves. "Yes, water plants." It was during one of those lessons that he lost points, wasn't it? "Which are the sub-categories they're divided in? We could focus on just one." Because there were a whole lot of plants and very little time left thanks to him.

Carter chuckled and tossed another jelly bean into his mouth. "And who wants extra responsibility."

"Aw. Not as much fun." he said with a smirk. But then again... he never really enjoyed accidently taking potions. Which... had happened more times than he'd care to think about... "Evacuate?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. "Potion making gone wrong?" That was bound to be an interesting childhood.

He nodded. "Yeah. Things in the muggle world don't work quite as... instantly... though. Plus... I never got really hurt growing up. Although. Because of their work I did get to visit a lot of places."

"So, what made your family travel a lot?" he asked. "Someone's job?" Or they could just be the traveling type.

'Yup, she was nasty, that one was! I was bleeding by the end!' Rose nodded, wincing slightly. 'I refused to fight back, didn't want to hurt her as I'd done nothing, and she'd realise it soon. Never did find out if she did realise or not...' Rose shrugged.

Harvey gasped "Oh! well at least you were not too badly hurt." he smiled at her as she stood in front of him.

William just lloks at Harvey and Rose. He is not afraid of them. " I might not be afraid of losing points now" William called out to Rose and Harvey. HE is basically daring Rose and Harvey to do something to him. He will make sure Rose and Harvey will lose points and be hated in their houses.

Water plants. Sub-categories of water plants. She knew this....she knew this....

Crud.

She did know this. Just...not by the right words. Or, at least, she couldn't think of the right words. Or didn't think she could think of the right words.

In other words, she was blanking. But decided to say only what she thought, which was also what she doubted was right. She only hoped that Treyen would understand what she was getting at and correct her. More often than not, things stick out in your mind after you've gotten them wrong better than when you've gotten them right.

"Float-...-ing?" The plants that floated...Ellie had no idea what else it might be called. But there definitely was one category of floating plants. "Submerged." The plants that were not floating, obviously. The plants that stuck to the bottom. "And...." And what? "The one that's in between." The plants that was neither floating nor submerged. The gray-area of water plants.

Justin pushed through his friends Rose and Harvey with his wand drawn and pointed at William. As far as Justin was concerned William could disappear and never come back. " you've got yourself a bad habit, Mate. " Justin said.
" Hurting my friends... Rose and Minnie. You're not worth the slop my house elf eats. You're nothing but foul Git!how dare you talk badly about Minerva. I bet all that stuff you said about Rose making up the fact that you were seen kissing another girl was a lie too !" Justin's body was full of hate and rage.

Harvey looked at William, he didnt know what to say to that. "I understand." was all he said as he looked at William, he was not going to attack William, it was not him to attack people no matter how much he disliked them.

" Harvey, let's give him what he deserves. Come on. remember he hurt Minerva. He talked badly about her when she is one of the nicest people here. You'r gonna let him do that, not to mention what he did to Rose. " Justin said as he tried to get Harvey to join him.

William against all her friends:


Minerva was trying to find her missing bag. She had placed it some where, but was not sure where. It had her dance things in it and her Ipod. She was looking everywhere when she heard fighting. She looked up to see William against Harvey, Justin, and Rose. She felt her self go red. She marched over to all of them and pushed her way to the middle so she was standing between William and the rest of the group. "STOP IT, STOP IT. ALL OF YOU." She screamed at the top of her lungs. "I AM SO SICK OF ALL THE DRAMA. JUST STOP!" She looked at all her friends. "This is my problem" as she pointed to William. "I love you all for sticking up for me, but I can take care of this." She turned to William. "Leave my friends alone William. They didn't do anything to you. I know your mad at me and I dont' care. You say I am immature for talking to Rose about you, but yet you have been talking bad about me to anyone who will listen outside here and don't say you haven't, because people have told me you have. So don't be calling me names when you do the same thing. We are over completely because you are controlling and have emotion issues. One minute you are happy then next you are mad going off trying to hurt yourself. I really really liked you, but I am not dealing with that. I do not deserve it." She looked at all of them feeling tears building again knowing she had to get out of there she didn't like people seeing her cry. "Just stop fighting I can't stand the fighting." She took off, but stopped before getting to far, turning around to William. "You shout anything at me like you did at the Waterfall and you wont have to worry about one of them doing something to lose points, because I will pull my wand so quickly at you, you wont see it coming and I'm not talking about changing your hair this time either." Minerva turned and stormed off. She had never threatened anyone before it felt horrible.

Ronnie was being quiet the whole time. She tried to keep the anger inside her. That was it. Will had lost their friendship, that foul little git. She was sick of giving him chances. Three chances, wasn't it? No, four. Yeah four. Four chances she had given, she was NOT giving him any more. She was so mad right now. Her fists were clenched on either side of her. She was SICK of Will. But she didn't let anything out. She didn't want her friends to be hurt. But she wanted to badly to start screaming at Will. To maybe even HURT him.

"WILL YOU ALL SHUT UP?" she finally burst out, loudly. "I AM SICK, AND I MEAN SICK OF ALL THIS STUPID....." she paused. What was it? Oh yeah. Drama. "DRAMA!" she shrieked, the anger rising up in her. She kept it going. She was enjoying this. She loved letting it all out, she felt powerfull...or something like that. "WHEN WILL WE ALL GET ALONG? MAYBE WE'RE ALL BETTER OFF BEING SINGLE!" she yelled, her face completely red. She ignored Minnie. "MAYBE BEING SINGLE WON'T CAUSE SO MUCH...SO MUCH BLOODY DRAMA!" she yelled, crossing her arms. There. She had now let it out. But wait.....SHE wasn't better off single. No, she wanted Harvey. She wanted to be with him forever! She was just referring to all the others who wouldn't really get along with their boyfriend/girlfriend. "And then YOU." she said turning to Will. "YOU ARE THE FOULEST GIT TO WALK THE EARTH!" she screamed, giving him a nasty look as she stormed off to the Gazebo.

Adelyn laughed, still holding his hand as she lead him away from their spot by the tree. He was really lucky she already found him adorable and charming, or else she would probably be a little weirded out by the way he was acting.

Or a lot weirded out.

"Yes, gazebo. To see the grounds?" She repeated, a little slower, but still smiling teasingly. She shook her head, blushing at his trouble to form words. Without hesitation, Adelyn stood on her toes and kissed his cheek ever so lightly. "Come on. The gazebo will be fun."

Harvey didnt know what to do, he wanted to join Justin but it just wasnt him to attack "Yeah he did hurt them didnt he. Yes lets do it!" he said, he was about to pull out his wand when he heard Ronnie yelling and then another girl yelling he looked around and saw it was Minnie. He let go of his wand. She and Ronnie both yelled at William and Minnie told him it was completely over. She even threatened him before running off, then Ronnie also stormed off. He then turned to his friends "Come on guys, Minnie needs us more than this.." he said pointing at William "He isnt worth it. Lets help Minnie through this, that is more than enough for me. Lets get out of here" he said to his friends and he followed the other girls.

Justin stood there with his mouth hanging open as Minnie ripped William a new rear end. his wand dangling at his side as he witnessed the awesomeness that he knew Minerva possessed. Then he saw tears starting to form in her eyes. Justin knew that she would bolt so he holstered his wand . when she ran off he turned to William and said, " This is not over by any means. got that , Mate? " and left to catch up with Minnie. he ran up behind her, " Min, wait up ! I'll walk you back."
