O_______________o

Angel couldn't help but laugh when her sister somehow got on top of her and started to tickle her, seriously how had that happened. "N...no.... do...don't." Angel laughed whilst her sister tortured her. "It.... w...wa...wasn...wasn't a...all th...ough....though was...was...was it." Angel couldn't believe her sister was now tickling her.

Angel suddenly found the strength to push her sister off and then she playfully kicked her sister off her own bed. "Now that's for tickling me." Angel giggled as she stuck her tongue out at her sister and laid down and pretended to sleep.

Oh, so Angel was liking being tickled huh? Getting a dose of your own medicine was obviously not always a good thing. What was that? What was she trying to say? "That was it. I ended up losing and I jumped in the lake, and it was awful. The water was SO cold." Was that enough details for her?

Before she knew what was happening she was on the floor. Normally she didn't mind the rough housing, but she was not currently in the mood and she didn't want to end up getting into a fight with her sister. AJ shot her a glare and went and piled up in Angel's bed and pulled the covers over her head.

Angel was expecting her sister to do something back to her but when she opened her eyes her sister was in her bed and had pulled the covers over her head.

O__________o

talk about swapping lives, Angel slowly and quietly stood up and then went and sat on her bed before nudging her sister. "I'm sorry." Angel pouted. "I was just playing." Normally AJ didn't mind the rough housing after all she was more into boy stuff that girl stuff.

"You can come out from there it's safe." Angel really wished her sister would come out. "Want a hug?" Angel was good at giving hugs to people when they needed them and she was annoyed with Adi, didn't he know he was supposed to lose to a girl on purpose.

AJ couldn't help but to feel a little bit bad by her actions. It wasn't Angel's fault that she was in a bad mood, and it really wasn't fair to take it out on her either. AJ lowered the covers. "Don't worry about it." Angel had nothing to apologize for. "I know you were. I just have so much on my mind."

The first year pulled herself up to a sitting position. AJ didn't really want a hg, but she didn't want to upset her sister further so she held out her arms and let the inevitable happen. "I'm not mad about losing the bet or jumping in the lake. In fact Adi told me not to do it, but you know how I never back out of a bet." It was something else that was making her cranky. She wasn't really mad at anybody but herself.

Angel looked at her sister as she said she had a lot on her mind, were they starting to fall out or something normally they would help each other when one was in need of assistant but for some reason her sister was hiding this from her. "it's okay." Angel sighed.

Angel gave her sister a half hearted hug, truth be told she was upset her sister didn't believe in her to confine what the problem was after all she was always there if her sister needed any help or anything. "Oh yeah, I know what your like, I'm like that as well." They both never backed out of bets but to do one in the weather they were having was strange.

Angel didn't know what to do or say next, so she just sat on the end of her bed and got a book out to read, seriously if her sister wanted to be left alone then fine but she would have to get into her own bed soon because she would be wanting to use hers soon.

She knew that Angel wanted to hear what the problem was but AJ just wasn't sure if she wanted to talk about it. It had nothing to do with not wanting to tell Angel, and everything to do with just not wanting to talk about it in general. Trying to put a smile on her face she looked at her sister. "So how are things with you?" Was the Benny drama finally behind them now? HAd she missed anything?

Angel knew how she got with bets so she didn't need to elaborate much on that one, and that was just fine by her. "It was kind of dumb on my part I guess, but I survived." She wouldn't be doing it again so maybe she had learned her lesson this time.

Angel picked up a book and started reading. Maybe this was her chance to go back to her bed and take a nap or something. Angel usually grilled her so she should take advantage of this rare opportunity. Pushing herself up, she walked back over to her bed and plopped down. The sisters were still close enough to have a hushed conversation, but she wasn't going to be the one to start one.

Angel looked at her sister and then.

O______________________o

No way, she wasn't telling her sister what had happened about that. "I'm good, Benny and I are fine." Angel could tell she was blushing she hadn't seen her friend since that day in lesson and she didn't want too, she was sure he thought she was nuts.

nothing to see here!!

Angel just continued to read her book, she hoped her sister would just take a nap or something but she had a feeling her sister would want to know more about why she was blushing so much, though it wasn't her fault she had thought she was going to die and so told her friend that she liked, liked him.

AJ caught that blush. It was hard not to considering that she had practically turned tomato red. "Spill it." It was nice to talk about something other than what was going on with her. "C'mon Angel. If you tell me I will tell you." They could help each other out.

There was no way that AJ was just going to let that so she propped her head on her hands and stared her sister down. She was going to find out what was behind that blush. On the plus side this also took her mind off of her own problems. It was a win win.

Angel knew it her sister had caught the blush and wanted to know what was going on. "Eh..." Angel didn't know how to get out of this and since AJ wasn't tell her anything, why should she tell her sister what had happened between her and Benny but then maybe her sister could help her out of this situation it was really bad.

"I thought we were going to die." Angel said to her sister before she hid under the cover and mumbled. "I eh I eh.. told... like Benny!!" Angel was trying to make it so her sister couldn't hear what she was saying, she was totally embarrassed about what had happened and was sure Benny was hiding from her because he thought she was a freak or something.

Eh! Was that it? This had to be good if she was having such a hard time getting it out. "Just say it. You know I'm not going to judge you." Especially considering what had just came out of her mouth. If anything AJ was most likely going to be more sympathetic because she was in a bind herself.

Her eyes widened, but for once it wasn't because she thought her sister was being dramatic, but because this sounded oddly familiar. "When were you supposed to die exactly?" Maybe AJ had missed something. There it was. Angel had admitted to Benny himself that she liked him. "You're not going to believe this, but the same thing sorta happened to me." Only not with Benny of course. "What did he say? What happened next?" All of a sudden AJ was ready to talk. Who knew that the two sisters would end up in the same boat?

Arista snickered as she walked into the Girls' Dormitory with the package of Oreos in her hands. She was ready to pass them out having spent the last hour in the Kitchen scarping off the amazing filling and putting in some white colored toothpaste, the prank was ready. All she needed was some victims. But first she needed a jacket...Oooo look some people were in here. She was kind of not sure about giving a prank cookie to Angel and AJ but she did want to...

"Hey Valentines!!!!!!!!" She didn't say names because she was ninety eight percent sure which was which and the two percent was just going to throw her off. "My muggle friends sent me some Oreos, would you like one?"

In the middle of the conversation between her sister and herself she heard somebody come in. AJ immediately became silent since she didn't want anybody overhearing her conversation.

Apparently whoever it was knew her name. As her eyes locked on the intruder she noticed that it was her friend Arista. "Sup Arista!" She had cookies, and oreos at that. "Mmm... I'll take one." AJ loved sweets, and she never turned down cookies.

Angel was about to continue her conversation with her sister when suddenly someone came into the room, she suddenly became silent and just sat in the room hoping her sister wouldn't say anything about what was going on, she looked at the new comer and smiled when she realised who it was. "Hi Arista." Angel wasn't sure about the food, because she knew when a prank was being played and she didn't like the face Arista was giving.

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighhhhh.

It had been one of those days, you know when you actually tried that thing called school. It was awful! And homework! Could it be completed if she just stared at it? Cause no ways Abbi was going to do that thing, she was hella tired and all she wanted to do was plonk on her bed as she did.

After her face gently hit the pillow, Abbi kicked her shoes off and rolled over, her back now against the mattress. You know what this was? It was LAZY TIME. Oh yeah. Lazy time with Whiskers, whom only a moment after Abbi took his place beside her legs. The second year petted her kitty and closed her eyes with a wide smile spreading on her face.

If only Lucas was here...then her smile would have been double it's size.

Ugh........ Could it get any colder? Nevermind she didn't want to know. She was so ready for summer. At this point she would take spring. On top of all of that the school work load was getting crazy.

Cinna needed to drop off this heavy school bag and grab a blanket or two. She made her way up to the third year dorm. She entered the dorm and seen Abbi with her kitty. Awww pretty kitty. "Hey Abbi. What's going on?" She said as she passed her bed.

Cinna walked over to her own bed. Tossed her bag on the floor and flung herself on to her bed. She grabbed a blanket sat up and wrapped herself up in a blanket burrito. She turned toward Abbi. Girl talk time? Maybe........

Ahhhhhhh. This was so perfect. Relaxation at it's----

.........WHY?

Like she didn't want to have to talk to people whilst relaxing. Well..some would be an exception but most people. NOPE.

DRAMATIC SIGH.

The third year opened her eyes and sat up to see Cinna shnuggled up in her own bad. Oh well then, no relaxation for now..not the way she wanted it anyways. "I think school is the most pathetic thing to exist. How do people survive class all day?" Because that was what was on her mind. "You?.....How are you and the booooyfriend?" No Abbi was totally not a stalker of their relationship. OKAY. She so wasn't....well was..but she had reasons, could you blame her?

Ahhhh! That was much better. Warm. So warm. Now all she needed was her pillow. She had really wanted to take a nap. But since she had already started talking to Abbi she would talk to her for a little while.

The third year shrugged. "I have no idea. That's why I just attend a few. I can't imagine going to all of them." Weirdo nerds going to all of the lessons like why would anyone put themselves through that.

Well..... She guessed that her and Bart wasn't much of a secret. Not that it was a secret or anything. A huge grin spread across her face. "We're great. Just hanging out and stuff." And by stuff she totally means snogging. But Cinna wasn't one to snog and tell. Except maybe Lux and Emmy.

Attend a few? HAH. That *was* like a whole day...to Abbi anyways. Even a class was enough. If she had an option she'd honestly just learn it all herself in a matter of moments...but she knew zilch about magic. That was the thing with Abbi she'd never been silly, if anything she was quite bright, she was just a tad lazy about school and therefore didn't necessarily apply her brain where it was most needed.

"Even one is draining enough. Like why can't WE maybe teach the teachers for once?" Now THAT, THAT would be a class Abbi wouldn't dare to miss, nope. She'd hose herself with that she'd actually do. Make those teachers see that they didn't actually know everything. Hehehe.

Hanging out and stuff..oh okay. She saw how this was. ALRIGHT. Eyes on you, Cinna...and a Bart even if he wasn't present, yes that was somehow possible to Abbi. "Ooooohhh." Yeah no, the smile Abbi wore was not entirely genuine. "Well Lucas and I do the same. We hang out AAAALL the time." Could you tell she was trying to be a boast? Oh boy.

Cinna was still cold. She pulled up another blanket around her. Really she didn't think classes were that bad. Well not the ones that she took anyway. Sure they were the basic classes. But it was enough to get by.

"Well now that would be interesting wouldn't it?" She laughed lightly. Very interesting in deed.

The third year tilted her head. Was Abbi eyeing her? Why was she eyeing ? Oh she got the picture. And it was loud and clear. She wanted to test her theory first.

She didn't recall asking Abbi about her and Lucas. Why would she care? She didn't even know the dude. Well two can play that game, Ab.

With a smirk and a raised eyebrow she said still in a girl talk tone. "Yeah, He holds my hand. We do all kinds of things. And we snog. A lot." Yes they do. She looked right at Abbi and grinned. Did she have a problem with that?

Arista could tell that she had disturbed the two. Oh dang. She should leave....But she really wanted to do her prank. "Hey AJ of course take one!!!" She resisted the urge to have the evil prank grin she normally had on her face when someone started to fall for her prank. She looked over at Angel waiting for her to take a cookie she knew she wanted one.

Seeing that she didn't take one she looked over at Angel and said, "You know you want one they are mint flavored. Limited Edition!! They are minty freshhh!!" She gave several laughs afterwards but realized that she was the only one that new about the inside joke so she stopped and gave each of the girls one of her signature Im-Sorry smiles.

panting.... Mack had ran all the way from the great hall to the common room and up the stairs to get all of her blankets out and pulls the curtains off her bed next would be the mattress, now she was going to lug it all down to the common room and sleep near the fire. Yep and she was going to be nice enough to invite others.

Giggllllllleeeeee.

She was an utter genius wasn't she? Well with these things..anyways.

"Right? Like we'd see how clever our Professors really are." Sure they'd be clever in their own subjects, but what if it was something totally a new to them. Now that, that would be more than amazing to see. If only there was a way to plan this. But then hey..no need for scheming. Her mother had already given her some decent warnings. HEH

...............Ouch. Like ouch. Wait WHY was that ouch? She didn't care...or didn't pretend to anyways. MHHM. PHHFTTT.

Now...oh now, sassy Abbi was coming out more than ever before. "Do you guys even talk? Or is it just MWA MWA kissy kissy?" She was totally not jealous of the kisses, like no, okay maybe..but not showing she was anyways. "Well I know things about Bart anyways..things just between him and I." HEHEH COUGH COUGH.

Just one? Maybe she could have more once she consumed the first. Which one to take? Hmmm... it really shouldn't have been that big of a decision considering it was just a cookie, and they were Oreos. All oreos were the same. She didn't spot any broken ones. Picking one of the top she laid it beside her on the bed. What was up with Angel? "Since when do you not like sweets?" It seemed really odd.

Minty. Did Arista just say that the cookie was minty? The last time that AJ had checked oreos were not minty. "Why would they be minty? They could be one of those cool new flavors though. Without waiting for a response, the lion popped the whole cookie into her mouth. A couple of chomps in her nose wrinkled in disgust. "Toothpaste!" she said as well as she could with a whole cookie in her mouth. Instinctively she started to spit the spit spoked cookie out on the floor. When you were expecting a certain taste and got something else instead it was a shock to your taste buds. AJ threw a pillow at Arista playfully.

The most important place to insulate first was her dorm room. It usually wasn't TOO cold in there, but Penelope wanted to make sure it stayed that way. And hopefully got warmer. Schuyler was sure to appreciate it too.

So after that Charms lesson, she quickly hurried up all those stairs to the seventh year girls dorms. Tossing her bag onto her bed (and narrowly missing her cat who was sleeping at the foot of her bed), she pulled out her wand and moved over to the wall closest to her bed. She moved her wand in that infinity shape again and cast, "Caelum Saepio." The fog appeared on the wall and then vanished just as quickly. Excellent.

Penelope moved around the room and repeated the process on each of the walls and the windows - a couple times on the windows, actually, JUST to be sure. It took several minutes, but finally she was done.

And maybe it was her imagination, but the room did feel a bit warmer. She mentally patted herself on the back for a job well done.

The dormitory was not one of the coldest places of the castle, but Lucy liked to sleep in the heat. She suffered much from the cold. So she decided to start from the room in which she slept ..
She sat facing the wall next to her bed and pulled out her wand.
She was silent for a few minutes to concentrate and said:" caelum sepio! "
Lucy made a sweeping movement with her wand in the shape of 8!
When she went near to the wall it seemed a bit warmer!
