Aaah, that made a lot of sense. "I'm sure you will definitely know soon. I guess I'm pretty unusual because I have no trouble finding out what my passions are." Beyond working with potions, Lux had no other career aspirations in all honesty. Then again she didn't really feel the need to when she was really good at the subject. The mention of Dylan wanting to hear Bleu sing was adorable. "He's such a sweetheart." Dylan was one of the nicest people that she had ever met though no one was as nice as Bay.

Awww, Bleu was so sweet. "I am really excited to hear about it then! Have you kissed him yet?" Hehe, she wanted to know all the things and hopefully the question was okay. Some people were all secretive when it came to kissing and stuff, and others liked to gush about it. "Oh, I am really looking forward to the holidays! Christmas is getting closer but it needs to arrive already."

UGH.

Stinking Peeves! "You're the one who ruined my date." He had better remember what he had done in the Room of Serenity because SHE sure did.

Dodging the tomato coming towards her, she gave him the STINK EYE.

Oh little puffer girls thought they could just ignore and avoid Peeves did they? Well he wasn't going to stop that easily. Tossing a few more tomatoes at them he cackled.

"Peeves is just trying to help, you need to eat Healthy"

He tossed a few more tomatoes that were in his hand before swooping down at the table to find something else he could use.

After down at the lake sketching the lake, Sophia was a bit hungry so decided to go into the Great Hall and get something to eat. Skipping happily into the Great Hall she took a seat in her normal spot. Seeing Lux her eyes sparkled happily at her. "Hiya Luxury Lux! "said Sophia waving at her and hugging the older girl. Sophia really liked Lux, she was really nice and sweet to her and was like a older sister that she never had, Sophia never seen her without a smile on her face. Sophia admired her as well as she did [strike]Kace[/strike] Mumbles, she looked up to them.

Looking at the different food selection Sophia bit her lip trying to decide what to choose. Seeing Peeves she sighed and rolled her eyes. Out of all times, he had to bug them when they were eating? annoying little bug he was, and a tattle teller at that. As a tomato hit her head she glared at Peeves. "You evil little twisted man, don't you have anything to do better with your time than torture us?"Sophia asked him annoyed.

"You should feel lucky. I just have no idea what to do. But I still have a couple years left to figure it out." Bleu also had a couple years to get herself out there and sing for people and get noticed and hopefully become a famous singer. That was her passion. Dylan was too sweet for her own good. "He is. He's one of the most sweet and understanding people I have ever met." And he was all hers.

Bleu flushed at the question, but she didn't mind sharing. "He kissed me, then I kissed him...a lot." She giggled. It was so weird to talk about but so fun at the same time. She liked that she had someone to talk too. "I'm sure it will be great to spend time with him. I love Christmas and I can't wait to see my mum." Her mother was her best friend. She wouldn't know what to do without her.

OHHHHHH PEEEEEEEEEEVES was going to get it this time. She pulled out her wand and screamed, "Incarcerous!" Ropes flew out of the end of her wand towards Peeves.

As Kace was walking down to the great hall to meet Sophia, he noticed she was there already. He smiled and made his way over and now Peeves was here again!? Didn't he just deal with him in the spirit room? He rolled his eyes and he hugged Sophia from behind. "Heyy Candy Queen.." he smiled. "Hold on one second.." he said going to help Bleu and Lux.

But as he was gonna help he heard Bleu do a spell and he was impressed. "Wooaahh nice spell Bleu." Girl power all the way. Now he can see why Dylan liked her. She had some spunk to her. He grinned and went back to get some food. Yeah because food was priority. "Sooo Candy Queen tell me about your first weeks of school?" he asked.

Dylan entered the Great Hall and made his way to the table just in time to see Peeves throwing tomatoes and...his girlfriend casting a spell at him! "Not bad," He told Bleu as he reached her side, giving her a pat on the back and chuckling. He then glanced at his fellow badgers at the table. "You guys okay?" The fifth year asked in concern. That darn Peeves...throwing those tomatoes and whatnot at his friends. Hmph. He just had to choose the Hufflepuff table!

Awww, a hug from a cute little Hugglepuff. "Hey!" she said happily as she hugged Sophia. She just adored this girl already! As she started telling Peeves off, Lux nodded in support. He really was a big old BULLY. "So, how are things going?"

She supposed that Bleu was right, and really she did feel lucky to already have her career picked out. "Do you have a favourite subject?" That could be a big help in figuring out a career aspiration even though she was sure Bleu could be a successful singer. "We both have amazing boyfriends!" Go them and Bay was the best person ever.

Awww, so they HAD kissed. How adorable. "When I kissed Bay the first time, I initiated it and then he kissed me. But that was before we started dating." It had made the Aparecium but she wasn't sure if Bleu had read about it. "Yes! I love going home for the holidays! Even though I don't like winter much." Especially not after the Chorts.

At that moment Peeves had to be a butt and throw more tomatoes at them, causing her to use an empty plate as a makeshift shield. "Go away, Peeves." Seriously. Bleu shot a spell at him and wow. "Impressive," she said approvingly.

Seemed that more people were heading their way. "Hey!" she said to Kace and then Dylan. She winked at Dylan as she saw him with Bleu. Hehe, they were so cute. "So how are you guys doing?"

Swooping down at the table he grabbed some rolls and floated back up. Laughing as the students started getting upset.

"INCOMING"

He tossed the rolls at each one of them.

That's when he saw it, ropes coming at him! Did the child really think that was going to stop old Peeves. He zipped further up in the air and watched the ropes fail. Then tossed a roll straight at the child (Bleu) before zipping away out of the Great Hall.

Tyler walked into the Great Hall after spending some time at the lake, walking in he took a seat beside Sophia. "Hey Hugglepuff! "said Tyler softly but honestly as he hugged her. Looking at Kace he nodded towards him. "I saw what happened when I walked in, thanks for looking after Sophia like that! "said Tyler. Although it wasn't nothing major, he was glad that people were looking after Sophia.

Tyler looked at Lux Who Sophia was hugging and chuckled. "So...I'm guessing you're the famous Luxury Lux that Hugglepuff won't stop talking about! "said Tyler softly but honestly. "I'm Tyler, Tyler Lockwood! said Tyler. Looking at Bleu he smiled at her. "Nice spell, very impressive indeed! "said Tyler impressive with her spell. Tyler looked at Dylan and nodded. "I just waked in, is everyone else ok?"Tyler asked everyone else.

As Kace was talking to Candy Queen and was being distracted by Peeves, he didn't even notice Lux was there. He grinned towards the Cucumber and gave her a squeezable hug. "Hey cucumber I am doing well. I notice you and Emmy are having issues.." he pointed out. She probably didn't wanna talk about it but he wasn't dumb. He knew something was going on.

As Kace was finished talking to Lux, he turned around and notice a dude was talking to him. He seemed familiar and he smiled and nodded. "Thanks mate, oh of course she is like a little sister to me. It was just natural.." It was nothing really. He heard his name mentioned and he greeted him with, "Nice to meet you Tyler I am Kace." He didn't know if they met yet or anything but he felt like he knew him.

Too bad Bleu's spell missed Peeves because it would have dealt with the annoying poltergeist. Oh well. At least he had flown off after throwing a roll at her which she managed to duck.

Ugh, Cucumber. Lux really didn't like when people called her that. It was Bay's nickname for her and he was the only person she wanted to call her Cucumber. Still she liked Kace too much to say anything about it. Yep, she was still smiling though the smile vanished at the mention of Emmy. It was important to be nice because she was Kace's girlfriend but Lux didn't have anything nice to say about Emmy. "If by having issues you mean we aren't friends anymore, than yes."

Thank goodness someone else arrived then because Lux didn't want to think or talk about Emmy when she wasn't even worth it. "Hey, Tyler! Yep, that's me. Sophia has told me about you too." She wondered what the Hugglepuff had said about her.

At that moment, Kace walked up. He was apparently impressed with her spell skills. She smiled and replied, "Thank you and Hello, Kace! How are you?" She hadn't seen him in awhile.

And then there was her handsome Dylan. She smiled hugely when he walked in and complimented her. "Thank you, darling." Stupid peeves. He was so frustrating. But her boyfriend was here so he didn't matter anymore. "We're fine I think." She patted the spot next to her for him to sit down. "How are you? I feel like I haven't seen you in forever." It had really only been a couple days. They were just so busy with school work.

Did she have a favorite subject? She thought about it for a moment before answering Lux. "Well. I like charms, transfiguration, and defense against the dark arts the best." She was really good at casting spells and she did enjoy it. "We have wonderful boyfriends." She smiled.

Bleu grinned, "Oh, look at you miss take action!" She gave a little giggle. She thought about how much she loved spending the holidays with her family. Though her family was small, she always enjoyed spending time with them. "How do you not like winter?" Bleu wasn't one for hot weather, but she loved spring time, and snow. It was fun.

Bleu dodged the bread roll. Stupid peeves. So annoying.

"Thank you, Tyler." She smiled. She didn't know the boy well but had seen him in class and at the table.

Seeing Lux's wink when he joined Bleu, Dylan smiled shyly. He couldn't help it. He knew exactly what Lux was referring to and now he was all giddy inside.

"I'm great," The fifth year replied with a nod. "How about yourself?" He asked.

"I think everyones all right," Dylan replied as he glanced around at his friends. Thankfully, Bleu had dodged the roll Peeves had thrown at her. He then turned his attention back to the boy, realizing they'd never met before. The fifth year stuck out a hand for him to shake. "I'm Dylan, by the way." He introduced himself with a smile.

"Good, I'm glad you're alright." Dylan said as he sat down beside her. Slipping his arm around her, he looked to her as she spoke. The Puffer laughed. "It does feel like forever, doesn't it?" He asked, giving her a peck on the cheek, not caring what those around them thought. "I'm good though, how about y-"

Suddenly, a roll was flying at her. Frowning, the boy caught it just as she dodged it. He shook his head as Peeves disappeared out of the Great Hall. "That git," He muttered, taking a bite out of the roll. "Not a bad roll, though." He added with a chuckle. "Anyways, back to what we were talking about... how about you? You been doing okay?" He asked, smiling at her.

After adding his own pats to the poor feline he had almost tripped over and adding another apology as well, Adi made his way to the Hufflepuff table. The one good thing about almost tripping was that it seemed to jolt him wide awake. Or maybe it was due to all the delicious smells wafting around the Hall.

"Two cats down, one to go,'' the fifth year told Hayden, pleased that he was able to get going on the Divination activity so quickly. This would leave more room in his day for other things... like studying (bleh) and spending time with AJ (woot!). Now to answer Hayden's question. "I wish. I haven't seen anything about tests but I'll have to check properly.'' Adi sat at his House table and shoved some plates in Hayden's direction. "Eat up.'' He himself wasted no time, piling his plate with toast and scrambled eggs.

"We could try looking outside to see if we find another cat.'' Since he was looking around the Hall and not seeing any. Too bad Professor Cassie wasn't there. She might have brought her cats down for breakfast... speaking of Professors and cats...

Adi squinted in the direction of the Staff table. Or rather, underneath it. Man, he was on a roll with these cat readings! An orange and white cat lurked under the table probably hoping to be fed. "One...two...three!'' The cat had turned in a circle three times! "Hey, Hayden. I've got my last reading. There's a cat under the staff table.''

Leaving his friend to get a reading out of the cat, Adi consulted his textbook. "If a cat turns in a circle three time, it means you will gain a new friend.'' Hmmm. Now that made sense as he was always making new friends. It was something that came easily to him. Yep!

Anyway... now he just needed to write these readings down. Since there were only three, he would have no problem remembering them until he got back to his dorm.

Kace raised his eyebrows and was surprised that Lux and Emmy were not friends anymore. He shook his head surprised. "Woww I didn't see that coming.." he truly didn't. "How about Cinna? Is she still your friend?" he asked just to be sure.

Kace was still impressed with how Bleu dealt with the spell. "I am better now that you saved us from Peeves. Where did you learn a spell like that? Like seriously that will come in handy.." he said pointing to where Peeves was just moments ago. "Seriously will you do lessons." he offered with a smirk.

Listening to Bleu list off her favourite subjects, Lux really felt that there were possibilities as far as careers were concerned. "Oh, it would be awesome if you stopped dark wizards or something!" she said excitedly as Defence Against the Dark Arts was mentioned. The dark creatures aspect wasn't cool in her opinion because she had enough of them after the whole Chort thing. "It would be cool if we had a double date with our wonderful boyfriends some time!" Yep, she was still loving the whole double date idea.

Haha, miss take action for sure. "You don't even know. That's how I had my first kiss too. I just grabbed my friend's face and kissed him." Shame it hadn't been her boyfriend, but at least it was Louis and not a creeper like Ian. He was so GROSS!! "Oh, well after the whole Chort thing I just don't enjoy it much. I hated that term; it was the worst!" Because Bay had almost died more than anything else.

Dylan's shy smile didn't go unnoticed, and it was adorable. Awww, new couples were so cute and she smiled as she watched him interact with Bleu. "I'm pretty good. Tired and excited for Christmas." Could December just get here already.

All Lux could do was shrug at Kace because really she didn't care about losing Emmy as a friend. If Emmy wanted to cut ties when she had been absent for a lot of last term and then not put any effort in trying again she just wasn't a good friend. "I wanted to try, and she didn't." So yeah. It was all on Emmy. "Cinna's still my friend, of course." Though there had been that time where Cinna had been rude to her over Bay, Lux had been more upset than mad and the whole thing had been put behind them.

Seeing Tyler walking in her eyes sparkled happily at the sight of seeing her best friend. Hey Ty Bear! " said Sophia happily before hugging him. What could she say? ?She just loved hugging people! Sophia looked at Bleuand Dylanand smiled shyly at them, she was very shy around meet new people. "H-hello, I'm Sophia!"said Sophia softly but honestly before hiding behind Kace and Tyler some. She didn't know why she was so shy when she was around new people but she was!

Seeing Tyler mingling with Luxury Lux and Kace Mumbles she clapped happily. "Ooh...yay you met Luxury Lux and Mumbles! Ty Bear! "said Sophia happily. "Ty here is the one who came up with the nickname Hugglepuff, because I'm a Hufflepuff and I love hugging people! "said Sophia. "See I told you that they were nice people Ty Bear, I would never hang out with horrible people! "said Sophia softly but honestly. "Although he didn't think you two were bad or anything, Ty is just very protective of me!"said Sophia honestly.

Kace was just shocked is all. "Woahh didn't see any of this coming. So I guess the gryffinpuff gang broke up.." he frowned just a little bit. He wanted to work things out but he can't force it if some people don't like each other. "Well good thing you have Cinna then." he nodded. "So what have you been up to?" he asked because he hadn't seen her around as much besides lessons.

Ah so this is the dude Sophia was talking about. "Nice to meet you Tyler." he grinned and nodded towards him. He then gave her a proper bear hug. "Never got to properly hug you before because of the Peeves distraction.." he glared at where Peeves was just moments ago.

Bleu gave him a gentle smile, as he wrapped an arm around her and kissed her cheek. "It really does." She was listening to his question when he caught the roll that was flying towards her. Stupid Peeves!!!!!!!!!

"Giant git, indeed." She glowered in Peeves general direction. Grinning at the roll comment, she replied, "I've been ok. All this class work and studying for OWLs is getting to me though." She paused for a moment, now would be a good time to talk about them studying together. At least they would be doing something together instead of not seeing each other as often. "I think we should do some studying together, that way we will have more time together. If you want to of course. No pressure." She smiled, but she really hoped he would agree to it.

"Oh please, Kace, that was nothing." Bleu waved off the compliment, and blushed slightly. She did have a knack for casting spells. Lessons? O______o She had never been asked to teach anyone anything. Well...she probably could help...."I mean....I've never really taught anyone before. But....I can try. Sure." She grined.

Bleu thought about Lux's suggestion. She wasn't sure if she was Auror or 'Wizard Police' material. "I dunno. I'm not sure if I would be good at that kind of thing." She had to think about that one. She figured it was always a possibility but not really something she would be passionate about. Oh! A double date! That would be fun! "I would love that! That way I can officially meet Bay, because I'm sure he doesn't remember me." She smiled.

Bleu giggled. She wished she had Lux's gumption and take charge attitude. ""Well, I wish I couldbe more like that. You already know who my first kiss was and how that went." She grinned and winked. Chort thing? Had she missed something? Probably. "Chort thing?" She asked with a puzzled look.

Bleu smiled at the younger girl who was now hiding behind Kace and Tyler. "Hello, Sophia! I'm Bleu. It's nice to meet you." She couldn't help but think about herself a couple years ago, and how she had no nerve whatsoever to talk to anyone.

"That definitely wasn't NOTHING." he said flabberghasted that she thought like that. "That was awesome spell work right there." He turned to Dylan and gave him a thumbs up. He had one lucky lady on his hands. Once he heard Bleu would be able to teach him, he grinned and loved the idea. "I would appreciate it Bleu. I would love to know that spell for Peeves next time." Now onto setting times and such. "Where would you like to teach me?" he asked curiously.

Tyler looked at Lux and flashed her a soft warm smile. "Oh really not bad I hope! said Tyler joking. He knew that Sophia would never say anything bad about him, Tyler knew that she absolutely adored him just like all her other friends. "Hugglepuff told me a lot of things about you, she told me your like a big sister figure to her! "said Tyler honestly. Tyler was glad that Sophia was making some new friends, he was happy for her, and Kace and Lux were vvery nice he could see why Sophia liked them so much.

Tyler looked at Bleu and smiled. "Just honesty and I have to agree with Kace, that was amazing and definitely no just nothing! "said Tyler. "I would love to learn that spell as well, might come in handy for a couple of other things as well! "said Tyler honestly. Seeing Sophia looking at him he chuckled. "Don't worry Hufflepuff, I'm not going to use it for anything bad I promise! "said Tyler softly but honestly.

Tyler looked at Dylan and nodded towards him. "Nice to meet you man, don't ever make your girl mad man, you seen what she can do!"said Tyler jokingly. Of course he was just joking, but you had to be careful around girls at times, they could be deadly.

Tyler turned to Kace finally and nodded. Nice to finally meet you as well, Hufflepuff here told me alot about you and Lux, finally glad to meet the famous Kace in person! "said Tyler softly but honestly.

Tyler heard Hufflepuff comment and laughed. "Well..of course they are, I mean hello their Puffers! "said Tyler.

Ooh, Christmas. "Right? Me too. I'm so excited, I love Christmas!" Dylan exclaimed excitedly. The snow, hot cocoa, gifts, food, friends, family, and break from school was so great. "Are you going home or staying here for the holidays?" He then asked. He himself had never stayed at Hogwarts for Christmas...the fifth year just couldn't picture Christmas without his family.

A new face! Dylan beamed at her, giving her a wave. "Hey Sophia, I'm Dylan!" He greeted with a nod, smiling as she sort of hid behind Kace and Tyler. Chuckling, he added, "It's nice to meet you."

Noticing Kace, Dylan acknowledged his friend with a nod. "Hey, Kace," He smiled. "How are you?" He asked before grabbing a plate and filling it up with a few rolls. Oh, how he loved rolls...

Dylan gave her a sad nod at what she said about studying and class work. "I feel you," He said in agreement before taking another bite of his roll, realizing it needed butter. As he spread butter on his roll, he glanced up at her, eyebrows raised when she mentioned studying together. "I like that idea," The fifth year said as he finished spreading. "I like it a lot, in fact. When would you want to get together?" He asked, setting his butter knife down and taking another bite. He did hope she'd say like tomorrow or something because he hated not being with her. Every minute not spent with her felt like a million years!

Dylan laughed at what Tyler said. He glanced at Bleu and grinned. "I wouldn't dream of it." He said with a smile, turning his attention back to his new friend. "Anyway," He went on, beginning to spread more butter on his next roll, hoping no one minded him eating all the rolls at the table. "What year you in?" He asked.

Oh yeah! Hayden had forgotten how many cats they needed to read for the homework. Maybe she should have been able to remember, considering she had just left the common room a few minutes ago. But oops. It was a good thing Adi knew what they were supposed to do. At the moment, all Hayden could think about was food. Food!

She eagerly grabbed the plate Adi pushed her way. Hayden selected a couple pieces of bacon. Next, she reached for the toast and spread jelly on it. Yes! Hayden ate the toast eagerly before slowing down a moment. With a little bit of food on her stomach, she was able to act more competently. As she was filling a cup with coffee, Hayden glanced in the direction Adi was looking, toward the staff table.

"There's one over there too." She pointed at a cat that had just come running in the door. It was cute, little orange one. The cat came bounding into the room, weaving under each of the tables and brushing against some students. It batted the air with its paw before running off out the door again. Aw, where was the cat going? But the cat was out of Hayden's view, so she couldn't see if it was doing anything else cute. Instead, Hayden took a sip of her coffee and turned back to her breakfast.

"Any plans for the rest of the day, Adi?" Looked like their divination homework was already done.

Bleu flushed a little. She couldn't believe everyone thought it was such a great spell. She had taught herself a lot of spells and charms because...well, frankly she had had the time to. No friends meant no distractions. "Thank you, Kace." She could definitely teach him more than just that one spell. There were so many others. "Well, we could do like a group teach thing if more wanted to come?" She looked around the table at all the Puffs, "It would probably be easiest on saturdays....the room of requirement is a great place to go. All you have to do is think of what you need and it appears. It's amazing. Have you ever been there?" She often went there to practice singing and piano.

"Well, thank you, Tyler. Comes with practice." She winked at him. Seemed like more people were wanting to learn from her. "I'm game. Like I said to Kace, We could make it a group lesson." She looked around the table again, wondering if anyone else needed help.

Bleu grinned a little. He was too adorable. She really wanted to spend more time with him, even if they had to do it while studying, at least it was time spent together. "Whenever really. I mean I generally study in the common room or in the girls dormitory, but we can go anywhere an work. Even outside would be nice." She watched as he took a a big bite out of his now buttered roll. She grinned. In a smaller voice that only he could hear she said, "We haven't gone on our picnic date yet either. I'd love to do that soon." She blushed a little and looked away from him. She really couldn't wait for their first date.

Watching as Bleu spoke to the guys at the table, Dylan couldn't help but feel a little jealousy inside of him. Not from thinking they liked her or she liked them... he just wanted her all to himself. Yeesh. That sounded selfish. But he couldn't help it, he had missed her since they had last hung out and wanted to spend time with her. Maybe once they were done eating they could hang out somewhere...

When she turned back to him and started talking, he could hardly keep up because he felt as if he was getting lost in those beautiful eyes of hers. "Yeah, yeah...maybe tomorrow or something..." He mumbled as he gazed. "Have I ever told you how absolutely beautiful you are?" He added with a smile. The Puffer was beginning to not get so red in the face or nervous saying these kinds of things now, thankfully.


Oh! Their picnic date! Of course! He smiled. "I've been wondering about that too," He whispered back, giving her hand a squeeze. "I'm free any day. Just give me a date and we'll make it happen."
