Minerva smiled and squeezed his hands. "Well think about other terms, what did you guys do for fun?" she thought about the "fun" she had earlier today that probably was going to get her in trouble later. She let out a small giggle thinking about it. Looking over to where Taylor and Maxwell had gone she sighed a bit, probably going to fit again. Shaking her head she gave a small smile "Well if no one is going to make up their mind what we are doing then I'm going to go play chicken with the Willow." Maybe that would get them to decide...

Damon sighed, "Promise me you won't get hurt." He pulled her close to him.

Minerva felt him pull her close and couldn't help but smile "Well tell me what else we can do for fun and then maybe I will change my mind in wanting to go play with the tree." she gave him a little grin. "I could always go charm another kitchen wall with Laura.." did she just say that, oh no.. If anyone finds out she was there with Laura she will be in serious trouble. "Ummm.. let's not say that I just said that okay?" she blushed a bit.

Sarah was laughing, that was a good sign. It meant that she wasn't cross with Ella for being a clumsy mess and that she wasn't on the verge of death. Thank Merlin!

The second year watched as Sarah refused the hospital wing. She didn't blame her honestly. She'd heard not so great things about the nurse and was a little nervous about going there. Ella bit her lip nervously as she watched Sarah slowly try and lift herself, hoping she could do it. When her arms gave way and she hit the ground, Ella jumped. "That's not good." She said quietly. Yup, Sarah didn't know it but she had just met Captain Obvious.

When she asked for help, Ella hurried over and offered her arms and shoulders to help support Sarah as she tried to rise again. She nodded when she said it would be good to go to the hospital. "Yeah, seeing as you can barely move I think that'd be wise." She smiled at this, though it was small. She was still quite worried after all. "I can't believe I hurt someone...usually I only hurt myself." Ella said matter-of-factly as she helped pull Sarah to her feet and head towards the castle.

Damon smiled, "Well we could always go back up to the common room... I've been working on a song. Not writing, but just performing it. I'd love to hear what you think of it."

Minerva thought and looked over at Taylor and Maxwell. They were still off on their own, which they must have wanted some alone time and why would you want alone time with the person your dating. She looked back at Damon and gave a big smile "Sure that sounds great." Minerva couldn't believe he wanted her to hear a song. Of course she was up for that, how awesome is that he wants to share this with me she thought. Usually it was just Taylor, so this is a good step.

Elliot widened her eyes...oh no. This girl...was...a...CHILD! She almost BURST into YELLS AND SCREAMS. But she didn't. Elliot was once that age...but she was NEVER that OBNOXIOUS. She raised an eyebrow and shook her head gently.

"No, no, I am the queen, little one. I am older...and more experience. To be a queen, you have to be trained." she said, as if this were casual information. "And I've have been trained, little one.." she said, as if she were talking to a four year old.

She felt like she was playing with Dani. In fact, the girl reminded her remarkably of her little sister, who would be about the same age, just maybe a year or two younger.

Grouchy...ERGH. Elliot immediately scowled. "I am mere annoyed because this cat here-" she pointed to the creepy orange puff ball standing behind her, "keeps following me. And I don't know who's he is..." she tried to explain with a LOT of eyerolling. It was Elliot's specialty.

Play?!?! Oh Merlin NO-"Depends on what you want to play, Princess. Because I am the queen, I will let you be the princess. I'm Queen Elliot, by the way. The Ice Queen..." she held out her hand, but she didn't know if the younger girl even knew how to shake hands...hmm.

Why are you wasting your time talking to a CHILD? she asked herself...but the girl really did remind her of Dani. And She missed Dani a lot.

"Great." He smiled giving her a quick kiss, he looked over, he would've said goodbye but... They aren't supposed to know that they truly got along still. At least Maxwell wasn't, that was something else he'd have to do soon, because hiding it felt horrible for him. He started to walk until he realized something, "Min, you better lead, I'm sure you know how to get back actually, you let me lead we'll end up never finding our way back."

Minerva waved goodbye to Maxwell and Taylor not wanting to interrupt them. She held Damon's hand and headed towards the castle when he stopped. She laughed a bit "Okay, don't worry I know where I'm going. Good thing one of us likes the day light and being social." she hoped he wouldn't mind her joke and started walking a little ahead of him.

He chuckled, holding her hand, "Oh, I know. Where would I be without you?"

"Oh, that's good." Ronnie said with a little sigh of relief. She watched as he ran off for his shoe, and returned back. "Good thing you didn't loose it, huh?" she asked with a chuckle. Now that would of been terrible if he lost it. . .it'd be kinda hard to manage having one shoe on.

Ronnie nodded. "Yeah, good idea." she said even though she really loved the swings. But they weren't going anywhere, were they? Nope!

Ronnie ran after him to the castle, and watched him climb the ladder. She blinked as it disappeared. She had heard many people talk about things randomly disappearing on the playground. She grinned and watched as it appeared back, and began climbing. Right when she clutched the hard wood floor, she ladder disappeared. She looked down at her dangling feet for a few seconds, smiling. Now that was pretty cool!

She finally pulled herself up with a little grunt. Oh. Well that was sort of. . .embarrassing. Oh well! Ronnie stood up straight and looked around.

"I'M KING OF THE WORLD!"

she cried, throwing her hands up into the air. She was so high up! Well, not really. Her head turned to see more higher towers and such. She'd probably more likely be king of the world up there than down here. "C'mon, Oakey!" she said, grabbing his arm and running up to the tower.

With the new playground in, Angelina has been coming there a lot these days. By going here so much, she was surprised to not have seen may friends.

Going down the slide, she laughed. Finally calmed down from having such a good time she all of a sudden glanced over towards the swings. At first she thought it was just another student swinging on the swings, but it connected with her that the person on the swing was Glenn.

Sitting at the bottom of the slide she watched as the swing disappeared and Glenn started to fall. Worried, Angelina started to get up and walk over to see if her friend was okay. When she finally arrived Glenn was whipping her jeans and looked fine.

"Hey Glenn!" She said to her friends with a big smile. "How are you? Are you okay from the fall," she asked. She hoped she wasn't asking to many questions...

Maxwell sighed. "Well, I'm pretty sure starting off his and Min's relationship with a lie won't go over well...I'm not upset, i forgive you. But her has to tell her or I will she doesn't deserve to be lied to." He said looking back at Damon with anger on his face, he'd just warned Damon about hurting Min and he said there was nothing to worry about, was Damon's mouth a fountain of lies?

Tay looked at him, "I will tell her if he doesnt since i am her best friend and i was in on it too..." She sighed. Taylor looked into his eyes, "I am so sorry, Maxwell, I dont know why i agreed to keep it a secret. "

Maxwell nodded. He wanted to say something along the lines of 'because you don't trust me' or 'neither do i' but he couldn't bring himself to be that mean or cruel to her. "It's okay, Taylor. It's over now and you did tell me. Thank you." He said sweetly and pulled her into a hug.

Tay hugged him back. "Thank you for being an extremely amazing boyfriend to me despite me not deserving you." She kissed him and laid her head on his chest. Taylor glanced up at him.

Maxwell held her close. "How many times to i have to tell you that you deserve better? I'm only as good as i am because i try to be..." He said with a smile but on the inside he thought 'You deserve someone you can trust.'

Taylor gently pulled his head to hers and kissed him as she did at the estate. "I dont deserve better than you. You deserve better than me." She kissed him again.

Maxwell's distrust melted away as he did at her kiss. He gently shook his head. "No, I don't and even if i did i don't want better. I want you." He said and kissed her again.

Asher hadn't been outside on the grounds yet, except for hanging around the quidditch pitch. So today he decided to do some exploring. His first plan was to walk down to the lake, take a swim, skip some rocks.

Instead he ended up following some first year by the looks of them, to a wooded castle? No wait, since when did Hogwarts have a playground? A real playground. He ran up to it and climbed the ladder and went down the slide. Yes, it doesn't matter how old you are the slide never gets old. (it just gets shorter)

Asher seen the roundabout, the funnest part was getting off and be all dizzy. He walked over to the roundabout, a familiar blonde fellow snake was spinning around hair going everywhere. It was Cardigan, from the team last season. They were in the same year as well. "Hey, Cardigan." He said as he watched her spin around.

"And i want you as well." She smiled at him. Tay rested her head against his chest. Taylor closed her eyes and relaxed.

Maxwell held her close. "Should we return or just stay for a few?" He asked content either way.

Tay gestured, "They already left." Taylor didnt even open her eyes. "I dont feel like moving anyways." She laughed and smiled lazily up at him, still having her eyes closed.

Maxwell looked to see she was right. He smiled. "Good, I don't really feel like it either. This is too nice." He said putting his head on hers and closing his eyes for a moment as well.

"I agree it is nice." She kept a smile on her face as he laid his head on hers. "I love you...."
