| | The Whomping Willow I kid you not, this is one tree you don’t want to mess with. It's best you keep a safe distance from the Whomping Willow's tree limbs or you may end up with a few broken limbs yourself. |

Originally Posted by AuroraQuinn Aurora wandered down to the whomping willow. She had dumped her revision books on her bed and just left them. She could not be bothered with cadences and veela hair bow strings right now. She'd been studying in all her spare time recently. It was horrible.
Anyway, she was actually leaving the castle for once, it would be nice to talk to someone about something other than music... finally. Not that she disliked music, just that talking about it got a little tedious after such a long time... She flopped down onto the floor a little way from the whomping willow and rested her head on her hands. She hadn't anticipated quite how cold it would be so she pulled her cloak and scarf tighter in an attempt to hide all her skin from the chill. Despite the fact he had been at the school for a couple of months now, Bradley hadn't particularly got out the castle a lot. He preferred the comfort of the Common Room, despite that he still knew very few people. even those in his own house. It wasn't that he was anti sociable, or felt that couldn't make any friends, it was just that he still wasn't comfortable in this environment entirely.
But today was the day he was gonna get out and about for a bit. Wrapped up in a simple jacket and with a grey scarf hanging loosely around his neck and his arms shoved into his pockets, the fourth year made his way down towards the Whomping Willow, an area that had remained fairly unvisited by him. He stopped when he noticed the amount of students that were down here. It wasn't busy but there had been more than he expected. He breathed out, his warm breath noticeable as a small whisp as he scanned for somewhere to sit.
He noticed the hair at first, it was very recognisable, stood out from a mile away and he made his way over to his fellow Slytherin. He sat, tilting his head towards her at first before turning his lips up into a small smile. "Nice to see some friendly company out here. Beginnin' to think I'm a bit of a nobody at this school" he laughed slightly turning back to look over at the tree.

She was so fun to be with, he could really be himself around her. She was like the sister he never had. She actually felt like family to him.

He chuckled as Peeta trotted up to them and rubbed against Taylor's legs lovingly. "Looks like someone likes you!" he said. "I guess I got some competition here.." he joked, grinning at Taylor.

"Your welcome." Taylor curtised and giggled when Logan bowed. She looked down when Peeta came over and rubbed against her legs. Taylor smiled at the cute kitten. She reached down and petted the cat. Taylor looked up, "I don't know about that, i think the kitten might of won." She winked and teased him while smirking.

Taylor faked a grasp and took out a treat for the kitten. She gave the treat to Peeta. "There you go, pretty kitten." Taylor giggled and looked up at Logan, "Are you jealous, Mister Logan?" She fluttered her eyelashes teasing him, "You shouldn't be jealous of a cute little kitten." A smirk came across hrer face and she kissed his cheek, "Especially since you are my monkey boy." TAylor smiled and sat down on th ground next to Peeta.

Look at this adorable monkey!" Logan said, puffing out his chest. "I'm sure that," he turned to look at Peeta and tried to mock Taylor's voice, "cute little kitten can't puff out his chest." he said, and then to his surprise, Peeta sat up a little and puffed out his little white chest and mewed. "I'll have a little talk with you later, mister." Logan whispered to Peeta.

Taylor laughed about the puffing out the chest comment and laughed even harder when the kitten puffed out his chest. She petted the kitten then kissed the silly monkey boy on the cheek, "What would i do without my silly moneky and his cute kitten?" She smiled and giggled.

He kissed her back on the lips. Then he laughed. "Who knows." He said. Then he looked at Peeta, and slipped an arm around Taylor. "I guess there's enough of Taylor to share." he joked with a laugh.

When he slipped an arm around her, she rested her head on his shoulder.... partly to hide her blush and partly because it was nice. "Hmmmm, maybe there is, who knows." She smiled and laughed.

Logan smiled as she rested her head on his shoulder. He ran a hand through her hair...because he loved doing that. Her hair was so soft, and the way it slipped through his fingers. Like silk or something. Then he laughed. "Yup! Maybe!" he said.

Taylor smiled and closed her eyes as he ran his hands through her hair. It felt good. She curled her feet up under herself, and was careful not to move too much. She giggled when he laughed and said yup maybe.

He kissed her on the lips again, a little longer than he normally did but he just felt like he had to. He didn't know why exactly. But he didn't know if she liked that. Maybe she felt they weren't old enough for that kind of stuff. He was only eleven, but still.

She surpised herself by kissing him back. It just felt right, she didn't know why but she felt like she had to kiss him back this time.

Angelina walked down towards the Whomping Willow waiting to meet up with her friend Taylor. She hasnt seen Taylor in sometime now, she wondere how she has been.
While waiting Angelina looked up at the whomping willow, it looked pretty scary, she didnt want to get any closer. With this she decided to be some what far away from the tree, but make sure she was in a spot Taylor could spot her in.

The boy chuckled slightly as he saw her jump, shuffling his position so he was more comfortably placed on the grass. "Sorry. Didn't mean to make you jump" he smiled. Guess his approach had been quite quiet, he wasn't one to make a racket. In fact, he wasn't one to stand out from the crowd. Bradley didn't think low of himself but he didn't show off either. He considered himself an average teen living in Clapham. "You got that music exam still?" he asked, remembering back to when she had told him about her musical instrument back on the train. Maybe he hadn't been the only one fairly unsociable this term. He wanted to get out. In fact he needed to get out. He needed to make friends and he certainly needed a reason to return the following year. He snorted ever so sightly as she asked the basic 'how to start a conversation' question with the how are you. "Good I suppose. Thanks for askin'" he turned to look over at the tree, eyebrows furrowing slightly as its vicious branches smacked about. Why the heck would you need that on your land? "What 'bout you?" Busy he guessed.

I was studying and lost track of time." She blushed becuase she knew how nerdy she was even though she didn't look like it. "How are you?" Taylor smiled.

"Getting better...." She trailed off. Taylor went into studying all of her free time after finding out her father died that week. Her mother told her that she is going to stay at school until the day of the funderal then the day after she was to go right back to school, so studying was the only escape. "How are your classes?"

She crossed her legs and shifted slightly so that she was more comfortable.
Urgh... the exam. "Yep. Looooooooots of revision." Mainly the theory, though she was still playing violin for an hour every day. Not that she didn't like music... but the revision was tough. Really tough. Especially when the thing you liked about music was the whole not-having-to-read-or-write-anything-except-music-notes thing. "You sure? Settling in and stuff?" She remembered how worried he had been that he wouldn't fit in. She was pretty sure he would... but was he? "I'm alright, stressed I guess... but okay." |

She remembered how worried he had been that he wouldn't fit in. She was pretty sure he would... but was he? "I'm alright, stressed I guess... but okay." Bradley's eyebrow shot up at her statement, an obvious lie. He laughed as she backed down, lowering his eyebrow again and smirking a little. "Oh I know" he chucked, shifting so he was facing her more than the tree. Eh, it wasn't so interesting after a while. A bit vicious as well. "Thinkin' about stuff?" he enquired. But that was what most people did when they were alone wasn't it? Procrastinate. He spent much of his time, hands shoved in pockets, just thinking. "You ain't got out much then?" he asked. School did that to you sometimes. The fourth year could remember having to stay in all day because he had forgotten to revise for an important test. Knowing fully well that without half decent grades, he was going to get no where in life and end up back on the estate. That just wasn't the life Bradley wanted. "Well I'm sure you'll do good" he turned back to Aurora. He'd never heard her play but she seemed to know what she was talking about. And he knew very little about instruments. "I dunno 'bout settlin' in. Still ain't comfortable here" The people weren't the same, the lessons were insanely weird and the environment wasn't the terraced housing and small green that he was used to back in Clapham. "But I guess it's gettin' better" Like he could actually achieve something. Only basic spells but that was better than nothing. "Cos of your exam?" Stupid question. What else would she be stressed about. "Don't worry 'bout it. Stress makes you worse" Possibly. Maybe small levels of anxiety would improve your performance but just overwhelming yourself can make everything all jumble up inside your head.
