Bradin giggled as Teegan tuned out of the Quidditch conversation. "Don't worry, I hate the sport too. Talk about boring" he said to her. He really wasn't a fan of Quidditch. That ran in the family so it didn't really matter.

Teegan took a drink of her butterbeer that didn't really look like the stuff, and sat her glass down on the table and traced the top of the glass rim with her finger, trying to pass the time of the Quidditch conversation. "Finally somone else agrees." She smiled as she brushed her long blonde hair behind her shoulders.

Bradin smiled. "What year are you in?" he asked politely swiftly moving on from the idea of Quidditch and tuning out of the conversation about it with the other people who were there.

Teegan pushed her glass around in front of her, "Seventh year." She answered as she continued to push her glass around. The glass skided across the table, spilling itself and covering the entire table in butterbeer. "Sorry." Teegan muttered as she sat the glass up straight. She hoped she hadn't covered the kid in butterbeer. But it wasn't anything that a simple flick of the wand couldn't fix.

Bradin smiled. Whoa he did not see that coming. A seventh year. She was like four years older than him. Then she spilt her butterbeer. "Its ok. You didn't get me" he replied with a smile toward her as he moved away from the dripping table slightly. He still couldn't believe Teegan was a seventh year.

Teegan pulled her wand out and flicked her wand at the mess and it disappeared into her wand. "Sorry though." She told him as she put her wand back into her robes, she didn't want to draw too much attention to herself, she still prefered to be the one in the background.

Bradin smiled. "Forget about it. Its all gone now" he replied. He hated being the youngest there, but he did love being the guy of the two.

Teegan looked out the window and saw an owl flying past. She shrugged her shoulders and turned back to Bradin. When it flew past again and hovered in front of the window, Teegan turned back to it. "Warren!" She exclaimed at her owl through the window. "What are you doing here?" she asked and then she noticed a large looking letter attached to one of his claws. "I'll be back." Teegan told Bradin as she got up from her seat and ran outside.

Avery smiled as the conversation was diverted from quidditch. That was okay with her, she didn't really like or dislike the sport. It was take it or leave it for her. "So no qudditch then! That's okay, there is plenty else to talk about." Avery jumped a little when the butter beer spilt all acorss the table, but she wasn't upset at all. She had done the same thing countless times before. "Oops Teegan! No big deal." Avery said, but Avery wasn't sure if Teegan heard her or not because she had taken off out the door. "I wonder what's that's all about!" Avery said to the rest of the table.

"Hi Bradin, I´m Kate." She said to the boy who remained silent throughout the previous conversation.



Avery proposed talking about Quidditch but in less time than Kate could managed the conversation turned into something else. Oh...no Quidditch talking... she thought. It doesn´t matter, I can talk about something else.
"So Avy, how are u doing with school classes? I saw that Hufflepuff got a lot of points..." School...what else?

Well so far, Hogsmeade had turned out to be quite a rubbish place to be. Where in Merlin's beard was Patrick again? Sorting out other people's problems instead of being with his girlfriend? Snarl. Ella sauntered throughout the streets of Hogsmeade, not particulary bothered about where she ended up. She wanted to go back to school, or even better, back at home. She looked up for a moment. Hmm, where is this place?

Meh, she was tired. Seriously still tired. Tryouts was ages ago and she got the team beater. She didn't think that was going to happen but she was glad. So she came to Hogsmeade, to celebrate of course it was her first time here too. Hmm, anyway she walked by herself, sometimes she just wanted to be alone. She liked the peace sometimes it calmed her, like it did with Lucas weirdly enough. So she walked down the streets of Hogsmeade looking for somewhere to have a rest and maybe drink something. Butterbeer? She had never tried that but she knew what it was. Not even looking when she went she just walked and looked around at the place, ouch. Oopsie. She just bumped into someone. It looked like she was snarling. EEK!

Right. So seeing as she was here already, Ella decided to order a Butterbeer. That was basically the only thing that was good enough to do around here. Drink a stupid drink. As soon as she had her drink in her hand, she got bumped into and her drink fell straight onto the floor. AGH. "Merlin! Can't you watch where you're going!?" She snapped at the girl in front of her. So much for this 'be a nicer person' thing she wanted to do. Oh well. If people bashed into her, it was natural to get mad.

DANG! Like 10 times more worse. Great and Melissa just knew that she wouldn't be forgiving. Scary. She glared at her slightly she wouldn't of glared but she was tired and she annoyed her for snapping at her. "Well I'm sorry," she apologised to her. God she hated people like this.

Ahh, no no no. She was being mean. Ella sighed then shook her head at the girls apology. "No, i'm sorry. Wasn't your fault." She said weakly. Or was it her fault? Perhaps she just felt the need to push somebody she didn't know... She turned away from the girl to order a new Butterbeer, and once she had it, she made sure to guard it away from any pushy people. "So.. what's your name? I'm Ella." She smiled.

Huh? She is apologising? Wow, okay then...she looked really mean and not nice and she was apologising? Maybe it was Melissa, yeah it was her and her tiredness that's all. "No, no I wasn't looking where I was going sorry," she hurriedly finished. Since when she was scared of people, like never? She smiled faintly though. "Melissa," she spoke getting her normal, she hoped. "Nice to me too Ella," she smiled back. See that wasn't bad...

"Kate did you not want to talk about school?" Avery could tell that the girl wasn't very happy about it. "I'm doing pretty good in school, but like always I get bored with classes." Avery was telling the truth, she did get bored with classes easily and wandered the grounds more often than anything else. "I spend alot of time outside the castle....I'd love a closer look at the forbideen forest." Avery blushed as she told every one her little secret.

Once Teegan was outside Warren immediately found her right outside the door. He landed on her shoulder as she untied the thick letter from the owl's leg. As soon as she got the letter separated from Warren he took flight off towards the castle. Teegan looked at the letter with wide eyes, she wanted a response back from Asher, not a book.

Teegan ducked her head back inside the door. "Avery. I'm gonna go..." She trailed hopefully Avery would understand and take a rain check.

Bradin looked at Teegan. "Ok" he said to her and focused on the other's again.

"Yeah, no Quidditch" he said. He really detested Quidditch. He found it extremely boring.

Bradin smiled at the girl. "Nice to meet you Kate. Out of curiosity, what year are you in?" he asked politely. He was making wuite a few friends this year.

"Doesn't everyone get bored of classes? I do. Talk about a total waste of our time but if it gets where we need to be then we need to cope right" Bradin said.

Art walked into the Hogshead with a soft smile ,he was taking Rhea on an official date. Why she wanted to meet here first was a mystery to him, but what she wanted she would get. He was devoting the day solely to her and he was up for whatever she wanted. He picked an empty table by a window where it was easy for him to see and he waited for her to arrive. He was just glad that the Hebe fiasco had blown over. Now that Hogsmeade was finally open to students for the year, he wanted to get sweets too and have a stop in at the other shops as well. It was his favorite part of any given semester. Today was whatever Rhea wanted though and speaking of where was she? She was usually quite prompt so he wondered what may have kept her.

Rhea walked into the Hogshead and looked around. She would be meeting Art here today for their first official date. After the whole incident at the lake she hadn't seen him much but was glad that that bit was all over now. Her and Aiden had spent much of the morning shopping looking around since it was his first time but now they were taking a break to do separate things. She was meeting her boyfriend. She spotted hiim and walked over.
"Hey you," she said smiling at him.

Art saw the ony woman that could seem to tease him stroll into the Hogshead. It was the one he adored most of all and once she caught sight of him. she waked over and spoke. "Hey me? Hey you." He said teasingly and gestured for her to sit. "So what brings you to this table at a slightly later time than anticipated?" He asked with a smirk and moved his eyebrows. He liked to make her chuckle even if it was due to him acting strangely. Removing a spiderweb from the corner of the window he had been looking through he gave her a slightly raised brow. "What caused us to choose this venue again?" He asked wondering how long the web had been abandoned there and was glad that there was no spider in case it unsettled Rhea. If a sweet python would who knows what a spider would do.

Rhea smiled and leaned over to peck him quickly as she sat. She was feeling a little bit tired after walking around for so long.

"Meh, I'm sorry I must have lost track of the time at some point. I was showing Aiden around Hogsmeade. It's his first time here," she answered. She hated being late but this time she really did lose track of the time even though she never forgot that she had a date with Art. She looked around at the dingy looking pub. She really would have preferred somewhere nicer for their date but she had already visited most of the shops and pubs, except this one. Besides she really didn't mind the place that much as long as the spiders stayed in their corners.
"Oh I donno, it has it's own charm don't you think?"she asked smiling at him.

Art grinned as she gave him a soft peck, yes any kind of girlfriend kisses rocked. Oh so she was with that git guy. "Oh so he had never been?" He really hadn't gotten much time to talk to him after their first meeting so he didn't know to much about him....other than Rhea seemed to like him, as a friend..... It wasn't surprising that Art didn't know much about him, he hadn't exactly been what Art and Rhea had talked about as they had ,had precious little time together after the lake incident. "Maybe next weekend we can all go together then." Who knows maybe he wasn't so bad? At the least he could get dirt on him for just in case purposes. "The place ,in itself, has about as much charm as my father's geta after he has worn them bare....But anywhere you grace has charm enough to entrance me." He said with a pleased smile. He would sit just about anywhere so long as she wished to.

Rhea shook her head. She was impressed at how easy Art was being about her hanging out with Aiden so much. He surprised her more and more every time they hung out.
"No he just transferred here this term and I promised to show him and around and get ice cream." she replied. She raised her eyebrows when Art suggested that they all hang out together next weekend. Their first meeting had been quite interesting, but maybe if they tried again it would turn out much better.
"Maybe it would be good for all of us to hang out and you two can get to know each other a bit more." She laughed at the comment he made about his dad. She knew they didn't always see eye to eye but still what Art said was funny. Her cheeks warmed and she looked away.
"You're still quite a flirt Koizimi."
