"Sorry..... i think i am confusing my names." She rubbed her face, "Sorry wrong person..... i was thinking about Puck..... but anyways my sister got kidnapped and murdered......" She looked away.

Maxwell frowned. "Sweetheart, I'm so sorry." He said and hugged her. "And here i was making so much drama." Maxwell held her for a moment. "Do you want to talk about it?" He asked although he knew she probably didn't since she didn't bring it up herself.

Tay let Maxwell hug her. She shook her head, "No. Damon already helped me as much as possible. He slipped me out of Hogwarts so i can be home to find out and help. Damon just let me cry and he distracted me by dancing, and his poems. I dont think i could cry a single tear now."

Maxwell gently released her, trying not to show how he really felt. "Oh, of course. I'm glad someone was there to help you." He said with a fake smile that he tried his hardest to make convincing. 'She likes you, so what does it matter? this isn't about you or him anyway, it's about her.' He thought to himself feeling selfish. But the truth was he was hurt that she didn't come to him and say a word or even mentioned it. It was kind of a big deal. "He seems like a good friend to you." His eyes changing to a deep forest green with small hints of brown.

"He is a good friend. I mean i was hanging out with him when the note came that Carina was kidnapped and i losted it. He comforted me then his father sent us his cloak so we can use it to disappear and go to my place to help out or wait for news. I was so out of it for at least an hour." Tay stopped talking and kissed his cheek, "But it would of been nice if you were there, but after i calmed down i realized that if i had asked you, it would of been selfish of me since you had classes and all."

"I'll definitely let you know." Unless Keefer got to her first, that is. He highly doubted that, but still. It could happen. Chances were he'll be the one telling Ellie anyway. But Keefer will notice. He will. Because Treyen will tell him. That was the only way he could notice something like that, considering he'll be too busy focusing on Quidditch, Quaffles, Bludgers and the Snitch.

Okay, he got it. He also chuckled.

"Hardly necessary," Treyen started to say, "But I'll show some support, don't worry." It's not like he minded, anyway, plus, everyone knew he was truly supporting Hufflepuff all the way, in all the races. Gobstones, Quidditch, House. All.

Just this one time, the Eagles.

And he almost sighed, "But I like them, and I'll wear them." So, enough of it, okay? Then he smiled, and also raised an eyebrow again. Apparently, she did get to decide what he wore for matches starting now. Perhaps it was good he didn't have many matches to attend while at Hogwarts. It was also good that he liked what she was telling him to wear too. "Definitely, Captain." Wink.

Jacket-less? He was sure he could take the London winter with any other jacket, plus...it didn't matter if it was his, she still wore it from time to time. Games, mostly.

Yes, he knew. Hufflepuff colors didn't do justice to her hair, whilst Ravenclaw's did wonders. His fingers were still playing with a strand of her hair when he happened to catch a glimpse of gold in it. Not yellow, some golden highlight hidden there somehow. Odd, considering her hair was fiery red. He paid little attention to that, he became more focused in her blush. And his smile instantly widened. That's...the reason why she liked it? "All the more reason for you to have it while I'm away."

Away. That was a nice way to put it. Certainly.

On a very random note, "You could go blonde so it'll suit you even better." ACTUALLY, how'd she look if she was a blonde? He was...suddenly curious. That golden highlight was to blame, no doubt.

Maxwell blushed a little as she kissed his cheek. "I would have dropped it all for you in an instant." He said with a half smile. "I don't really do the homework anyway." He said with a small laugh. "I'll never be too busy for you." He said with an encouraging smile.

"Good." It'll be especially good if they did play against them. Heh. And in the meantime, Ellie'll just picture Keefer's possible reactions. She didn't know him too well, but that just made it all the more fun. He wasn't so predictable to her.

Whether it was necessary or not wasn't the point, Treyen. "'M not worrying." Grin. She just liked that thought. Because, truly, she wasn't even sure what he wore to her matches. But she'd wear Hufflepuff colors...ever since he got that jacket, so it was only fair.

Okay, well now that he said it, she could believe it. Ellie just grinned at his eyebrow. It wasn't like she told him to wear things to her matches much. She just really wanted to see him in the shirt.

'Definitely, Captain.' HEHE. "I'm glad."

That was a very good point, actually. "It would fade....the smell." And then she'd miss it. And it was a whole lot better to just...not have it in the first place. Except... "Maybe something else?" She could have something else that smelled like him? Because she very much wanted him to keep his jacket.

Very random, Treyen. She raised an eyebrow. "Blonde hair and a yellow outfit? I'd look like a banana," she snorted.

Tay blushed then shook her head, "It wouldnt of have been fair to you if i had ask you too."

Maxwell smiled a little. "Taylor, I don't care what's fair. I care about you." He kissed her forehead. "But i'm glad someone was there to comfort you."

Tay smiled, "okay." She laughed, "It was interesting though since Puck and my aunt seems to like each other."

Maxwell looked a bit confused. "Who's this puck? Damon mentioned a 'Puck' as well."

Tay laughed and smiled, "Sorry, Puck is Damon's father. He is quite a character...... well that might be a bit of an understatement." She giggled.

Maxwell laughed a little. "Oh, that makes more sense now. He kept ranting about a 'Puck' And i was confused." He said smiling. 'His father's a "Character?" Now wonder he's so annoying and pretentious.' He thought, not showing what he was thinking in his face.

Tay raised an eyebrow, "Ranting? Oook." She giggled and smiled, "I cant believe that Puck is his dad because they are nothing alike." TAylor smiled, "I mean DAmon is.... or at least a goth and Puck is prankish and always joking." She laughed.

Maxwell laughed a little. "That's not what Damon said, He kept going on about how alike they were so alike, and how he had to thank Puck for for tricks from his book. Right after he finished making comments about my eyes." He wished he hadn't said that part out-loud, He thought she might think he was being mean about Damon or that he was weak for feeling that self-conscious about his eyes, but it just slipped out.

Tay sighed and stood up, dusting herself off. She frowned, "Let's change the subject before you tell me something that will make me annoyed at one of you two or both of you. Okay?"

Maxwell stood up as well, but much faster. "I'm sorry it just kinda slipped out." He said brushing the grass off of his back. "Helios is getting to the end of his cycle again?" He said almost in the form of a question. "He looks kinda gross." He said laughing and thinking of how much his dorm room smelled now.

Tay looked at him but made no comment to the apology. She giggled when he said that Helios looks kinda of gross. "You might not want to tell him that though, he might get offended and sqwack." Taylor smiled, "And i bet he doesnt look gross."

Maxwell laughed a little. "He looks like a giant thanksgiving turkey, who's feathers weren't plucked very well before he was cooked." Maxwell said laughing and then realized she still didn't know much about thanksgiving. "American's normally eat Turkey on thanksgiving." He said filling in the informational gap.

Taylor giggled, "Poor Helios." She smiled at him and hugged him. "THanks for the information explaining it." Tay laughed and smiled up at him.

Maxwell hugged her back and laughed. "This is one of those times where i wish i had a less interesting, and less smelly pet. But i guess there's not really a more Loyal one, Although a lot of people say Dogs are? I've never had one, My mum said they were too messy." He said laughing at the idea of a Dog being too much trouble but a Phoenix not.

Tay laughed and smiled, "I bet you do." She stepped back a little from Maxwell and twirled, "I never had a dog but i wanted one a while back but we have too many animals as it is." She giggled.

Maxwell smiled as she talked. "What kind of Animals do you have there? Other than horses, we already talked about them." He said reaching for her hand.

Logan walked out to the Whomping Willow, listening to one of his favorite songs on his Ipod. His kitten Peeta trotted after him, yawning from time to time. He seemed to be a lot sleepier than usual-which made sense since almost every night Peeta seemed to disappear from the dorm and be back the next morning, sometimes a dead mouse in his mouth. Logan shuddered at the thought of Peeta killing someone's rat...he'd have to keep Peeta secure in the dorm for now on.
