A set of paths link the courtyard to various areas of the grounds. It's nice to walk along either on your own or with a friend. The trees on either side of the path help to create a light atmosphere. So go on, take your time and soak up the fresh air, heaven knows students need it.
Maxwell was truly happy, could he stay like this? He wanted to, he hated leaving her enough when they were together but now that they weren't it was much worse... He continued to dance with her.
She was happy and wanted to keep this moment forever, thinking they wont have another one like it. Tay smiled and laughed and started singing another song as she continued to dance gracefully and twirl in his arms with ease.
The song came to an end and she looked at him, wondering if she should pull away... maybe even leave... was this a normal way to act? Tay sighed at all the thoughts ramming themselves into her mind.
She nodded, "Yeah i am fine... just trying to think how an Americans act so i dont act inappropiate and make you uncomfortable..." Tay ruffled her curls.
Maxwell shook his head. "Nothing you can do can make me uncomfortable." He looked at her hair. "I like you hair back this way...I did like it before but i like this better." He said smiling only a little. This girl with the long curly hair wasn't the one who left him, the one who broke his heart, she was the one he fell for, the one he was crazy about.
Tay smiled, "Okay." She blushed a little, "Yeah i think i like my hair better this way..." Her nose and belly button piercings were gone as well. "I dont know why i decided to do all that." Taylor grimaced and sighed, "I guess i wanted to rebel against my mother or something." Tay shrugged.

Maxwell nodded, he thought about how cute she was blushing. "I like you better this way...it's more...you, the you i first met." the you i fell for... He thought.
She nodded, "I like me better this way too." Taylor laughed and smiled. "I must of went insane sometime over the summer...." Tay shrugged, "I dont think i will ever change my hair again." She grinned at him.
Maxwell grinned a little. "Good, I hope you don't. I love it this way." He said smiling at her and admiring her hair. "I'm thinking of cutting mine shorter but i probably won't." He said lowing some hair out of his face.
Tay smiled, "Okay that makes it official then. I will leave it this way." She laughed, "Awww really?" Taylor did a fake pout, giggling. "I think your hair looks cute like it is now." Tay didnt think beore reaching her hand up and playing with his hair for a little moment. When she realized what she was doing, she quickly took her hand away and blushed out of embarassment, "Sorry..."

Maxwell smiled when she said she was leaving it. "Really it's just in my face...I might leave it." He was happy as she began to play with his and once she stopped her looked into her eyes. "Don't be" He said taking her hand gently and putting it back on his head.
"Seventeen. You're of-age at seventeen, Mikey," Hailey supplied but she still couldn't understand why he had to suffer at the hands of this so-called doctor until then. "But you'll shrivel up if you don't eat!" She protested. He would start looking like the vegetables he ate and that was not attractive at all.
"You are not going to die," Hailey rolled her eyes. As she ran her hand through his thick, dark hair, she decided to bring him to the Great Hall afterwards and stuff him full of actual food, whether he liked it or not.
His next question took her by surprise, though. An older sibling? But why was he--oh wait. He was going to be a big brother soon! She had forgotten all about his mother's protruding belly. It was quite distracting when they were in Australia together.
"It's not too much work, no," Hailey responded. But then she hesitated. When had Mikey ever asked HER for advice on anything? This must be a first. "It's fun sometimes, actually," She continued. "I got to dress Eli up all the time and give him baths and stuff...but that wasn't fun because he peed all over me." Which was so GROSS.
Right. How could Mikey forget that everyone's of age at seventeen? Because he wasn't in his right mind for some time. He had been dazed about even the simple things. Couldn't this poor boy get a break soon? "I'm half way there already," he laughed. He definitely had to talk to his mom about this doctor and diet thing. She had better not bough organic food for him. AT ALL.
Being an older sibling wasn't much work? Pfft. Even being a BOY twin to a girl was work in some ways. In ways he couldn't think of right now but there are some! "You let the bugger pee on you? Nice job, Rose. But I think I'd be too freak out to hold a baby. Maybe in a couple years when she can walk," Yup, because her walking meant that if his little sister got hurt, Mikey couldn't be blamed for it. "I'm sure Arianna would be the one to do all those things with her. I'll be there for emotional support," Because most men are anyways.

Maxwell gave her a crooked smile. "I agree, it's been fantastic to just be around you." He said closing his eyes a little and enjoying her playing with his hair.
Tay refused to answer the question. After a while she stopped playing with his hair. "So have you decided what you are going to do for Christmas? I mean there is a family party at the estate..."

"It's not I knew he was gonna pee on me!" Hailey said in response. Plus, Eli was a boy...which meant he could, um, AIM. As for the 'being freaked out' part, Hailey completely understood where Mikey was coming from.
"I know what you mean, they're so...fragile. You don't want to break them or anything." As if human babies were toys or something, yeah. *snort*
But when Mikey said, when SHE can walk, Hailey stared at him.
"Wait--you already know it's a girl?" She asked in a high pitched voice. Didn't people have to wait until the baby was BORN to know the gender? Or so she thought. Maybe they had baby sensers now or something.
"Well, yes but what if she ends up being a tomboy? She'd look up to you then." True that.
He was right. Messer was right! WOOT~! This is the first time his guess was right. "Me too!" he exclaimed happily. Hence why he like playing Quidditch. They bot are outdoor person. How cool is that?!
The Hufflepuff boy raised his eyebrows when he saw Sophie' reaction after he mentioned about the Healer. He wondered did she got that Healer phobia thingy since she seems afraid? But he didn't press that issue because Messer didn't want to make Sophie uncomfortable. He couldn't help to smile a little when he heard her laughter. She seems happy again. Good. "Pfft. I still don't understand why they always do that." Seriously though. "They should be proud being sorted into the awesome house of Hufflepuff. Since we have the color of sunshine." And not to mention they won all three cups last term. That firstie should be excited! "Oh there's a girl too?" He even hadn't met a single Hufflepuff firstie. Gah!
She played? Oh that's good. "What position?" he asked curiously. "Yeah. I know how you feel. Once I felt that way too." That's before he could fly on a broom tho. Appleby Arrows?! Was she serious? "Appleby Arrows fans, eh?" That's interesting. Oh he root alright. "I'm a Wimbourne Wasps fans." SMIRKS. But hey, even though they favorite teams are rivals that didn't mean they should be one too, right? Since Messer is not keen to make any. "Of course. I'll let you know after Keefer put the roster up." he gave his fellow Hufflepuff a smile.
"Yes well what can I say. I like them all." All the lessons were fun and is hard not to like them. "Me too. I hope its not because what happen in the end of the feast last term tho." With that shouting. Its pretty scary thing to see Professor Schirmer acted like that. "Yeah. I never really like theory. Its just too boring. It always made me sleepy." he groaned. Messer watched in awe while Sophie doing some charms to the leaf. "You little show off." he joked. "Don't remind me. I practically counting the day to come back here so I could do some magic again." He can't wait till he turns 17.
"Oh, cool!" Sophie smiled. "So you like the outdoors even when it's cold? Like.. snooowiiiiing??" She asked gesturing the snoow while her eyes sparkled. Snow was just lovely!
Shaking her head, Sophie sighed when Messer talked about the ones that didn't like being sorted into Hufflepuff. "I know! It's like we're an awful an useless house!" Which they were NOT! Hufflepuff was awesome and so cool! The color of sunshine? Hehehehe! She chuckled before talking. "Yeah, yellow is a really nice color too!" She liked the other house colors too, of course, but she had heard some people mentioning their dislike towards yellow before... nonsense! "I guess we'll have to get used to this fact and always help them undesrtand our house better!" They could do that, after all! "Yes, there's a girl! And she's really nice!" Maybe she could introduce them later! Her friends being friends with each other! That thought put a smile on Sophie's face.
"I've played as a keeper and a chaser." Her cousin didn't think she was strong enough to be a beater, and they always fought over who would be the seeker, so Sophie never got that position either. "My cousins used to give me a hard time as a keeper. They're all a lot older than me, so you can imagine the whole thing, I guess!" Heh. Three big chasers coming in her direction... noooooot fun!
OH! Wimbourne Wasps fan??? Sophie widened her eyes and her mouth dropped open. "OH, NO!!! HOW ARE WE GOING TO BE FRIENDS NOOOOW????" She asked dramatically, grabbing her chest for emphasis. Mehehehe! Hopefully he wasn't one of those that made that weird buzz sound though... hmmm... anyways! "Ok, cool!" GO, ALEC AND MESSEEEER!!!
Oh... the shouting and yelling scene at the Feast last year... that was scary... "I hope it wasn't for that reason!" But coming to think of it... both professor Roslund and professor Schirmer didn't come back this term... "Do you think that they both left because of that??" She asked looking at him, frowning a little. That was sad... And theory. "I never liked theory, but I just LOVE practical stuf!" That was why she was doing spells right now, by the way! WUT!! "I'm no show off!" She giggled. She was really enjoying herself with these little spells. "Why don't you try some too?" She pointed her wand at the frozen leaf at the same time she dropped it. "Incendio!" A big smile appeared on her face when the leaf was set on fire. How COOL was that?? She wished she were 17 already, so she could do that at home. "Aguamenti!" And now water came out of her wand and hit the burning leaf.
