He had developed the idea quite some time ago, since long before the end of his first year. By the time summer had arrived, Daxton had been quite certain that taking so long to decide on a course of action had cost him his best window of opportunity, but really it would have been unwise to risk getting into any trouble at all, especially after being confronted by Airey Flamsteed about the events at the Royal Observatory. He had been hopeful, in spite of himself, that Genny Tate would manage to find the books he had asked her to look for in her dad's study, but she had failed. The books he wanted were not in the wider part of the library either, so maybe, just maybe, they were in the Restricted Section. And, judging by Dakest's reaction to his line of questioning on the subject last year, there was not a professor in this school that would give a twelve-year-old permission to get those books by any legitimate means.

But he needed them.

Daxton was no longer a first year, which meant he could no longer use the 'youngest in the school' status as a means of getting out of trouble. It had its flaws, but it tended to work; it was best to get in trouble when you were young, you got let off a lot easier than, and Daxton could testify to that. For example: get caught in the Restricted Section? Claim to be a frightened little first year who had just lost their way and wound up in the forbidden area of the library (which had somehow been left unlocked). Of course, he was not a first year, but it turned out that, actually, he knew plenty of them. More significantly, he knew Genny Tate. Even more significantly than that, she was a Gryffindor, and therefore highly suggestible, especially in the area of taking risks that Daxton was unwilling to take himself.

So, the last time he had seen her passing in the corridor, Daxton had handed the first year a note telling her in a most practical way to come and meet him in the Library Study Area that lunch time, when it would be most quiet. He sat up on a table, cross-legged and barefoot, his school bag on the floor - shoes, robes, and socks shoved inside it - and stared off in the general direction of the Restricted Section, mostly trying to figure out how to get around the 'locked' aspect, if at all. He held his notebook, idly flipping the pages and all the while staying alert to the sounds of anyone moving about the library, and listening for the footsteps of Genny Tate.

A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration by Emeric Switch

Hmm...
It has been an hour and Jessie not find it yet.
Jessie is preparing her first class.

Transfiguration.

Her friend told her about the book which is can help her. Feeling frustrated, she pulled her wavy hair into her favourite hairstyle. She made a messy buns with it. But let some locks fell off.

Her index finger raised and trailed in some spine of books. Reading their title carefuly.


Emeric Switch... Emeric Switch
NIL

"Ck!"


Straighten her robe from imaginary wrinkles, Jessie turn her head instinctively. And she was very happy to find out that a silhouettes in the desk.

That blonde

Jessie smile to herself. Jessie repeat her action before. Straighten her robe again and take a deep breath to calming her pounding heart against the ribcage.

Without wasting another time, the gryffindor girl walk closer to the boy. Forgeting her Transfiguration book.

Jessie walking in her tiptoes so she doesn't make a voices.

Raven look like in deep in thought. Jessie tilting her head to observes the book in Raven desk.

The Standard Book of Spells Grade 3 by Miranda Goshawk

Jessie knows that book. She found before while looking for her Transfigurations.


Whoops

Transfiguration. She has not found it yet!


But she guess the book can wait. Her thought make the girl giggled a little.

Jessie walking closer to Raven who still scanning the paper with his eyes.

Jessie has a good idea!!


Jessie lower her body slowly. Put her lips near Ravens ear. Raven still doesn't realized her presence. And then Jessie talk in low-pitched.


"Busy,Raven?"


His reaction makes Jessie almost bursts in laugh. But she control it fastly after remember that she is still in library.

After sometime, Raven went back to school, the School he loved, place where he could be busy with homework, wandering and reading alone in library..

The library is wide and wondrous, also have a the restricted section where student requires a permission to enter it. A section that Raven eagerly wanted to enter.

He always sits near a corner, place that didn't alluring other attentions, Raven enjoys in silence making his own peace..

The Standard Book of Spells Grade 3 by Miranda Goshawk the books seem very interesting for him, he is very eager to mastered spell especially defensed spells. He wanted to be an Auror, because his brother Lucien wanted to be an Auror. He is very idolized his brother.

Hmmh... Raven sighed... he was thinking, for supporting his future goals he was supposed to be reading The Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection by Quentin Tremble


while he was busy with his own thought.. he didn't aware, someone is sneaking behind him.. and that someone is able to see Raven, even when he didn't draw attention, so when Jessie suddenly appear, he was startled..

spontaneously he was widen his eyes and straighten his body, luckily he didn't use any spell that could harm Jessie..

"Je.. Jessie" he looked at the girl, still with a fast beating heart..

"Looking for books Jess?" he looked at the girl a while before continuing his line " I hope you didn't mind with me calling you, Jess" ....Oh Dear

if he could look his face right now, so blushing... he lowering his face a bit, and talk a little stutter, his head is titling before he was speak.. his turn his head a bit, avoiding Jessie's eyes

"do you need any help?" sounds more like a whisper than talk..

From the corner of her eyes, Jessie can read some words in the surface of the book. " Sorry to surprised you." Jessie chuckled " I can`t hold it."



Jessie likes to see the face Raven made when he was serious. Make her want to tease him more.


"I`ve been here for an hour. I need a Transfiguration book but can`t find it, " Jessie smiled " Of course you can.I like the nickname."



















NO! SHE LOVES IT!

Jessie whispered while took a seat close to Raven in the corner. His perfume get caught by her nostrils. She narrowed her eyes when Raven avoiding their eyes contact.And seemed like his face turned in deep red.

"I think the one who need help is you, Raven." Jessie looking at Raven in worry.But she still keep her voice in low " Your face is red. Do you have a fever? Am I need to take you to the wings?"

Jessie put his back of hand into Raven forehead. Leaning her face closer until her nose almost touching his. And for several times, she drowned in those blue eyes. Lost in the summer sky...



"You need to take some rest,Raven.Your body is so warm. And your face is as red as tomatoes"


At that time she could feel Raven breath tickling her lips.

Instant smile appears in Raven's face as Jessie likes the nickname.. but when the girl start to Slither in next to him, he surely can hide his nervous and red face... he felt a lot more embarrassed when Jessie's noticing it..

She puts her hand on his forehead, aaaaaaaaand... his heart rate went crazy..

Dear Merlin... save that poor boy

"no... no need, i'm okay.. really..." stutter and uncertain is pierce out from his tone..

oH.. Dear.. those eyes.. trapped him into heaven.. Raven thought he need to be faint, to avoiding those beautiful eyes

"I don't need any rest or potion to make me feel better" he said

he continued "perhaps, i could help to find the books you'll need"

as he spoke to Jessie, Raven eyes capturing a red cherry lips of Jessie...

.....Ooooh The Temptation!!! get hold yourself boy! he try to struggled hard his desires to kiss!

Dear Merlin, what was i'm thinking?!? instantly turn his head.. and try to focusing on the subject he offers to Jessie

" well... what do you think? want me to help you?"
he whispered

Jessie put her hand on the desk dissatisfied because lost contact with Raven.

" I hope you are really okay." Jessie staring into his eyes. Sometimes she catch a glimpse of sorrow in those eyes. Then she remembered the sentences spoken by Raven in the Hogwarts Express. He talked about his ancestors. Yes,when he was five years, her dad told about Lestrange family. They was talked about her parents past. How her mother being disowned by her family. Her dad was talking about her grand-grand-grand parents, how she is still related with some great pureblood families. Not mention too much about what Lestrange family had done to Hogwarts.

Jessie staring at Raven with blank face before those plump lips makes genuine smile. With hoarse whisper Jessie trying to figure it out.

"Help me to understand,Raven..."

The girl noticed an confused look in Raven eyes. And then she feel like her body cant being cooperatives when her head laying in Raven shoulder.

"I'm not understand. It'so complicated..." Jessie felt like her eyelids become heavy "Transfiguration is so complicated....Could you help me? Or do you mastering Charms? "

Jessie chuckled again.

"Yeah, I'm okay" he lowering his chin down, staring what ever exist down below.. yet the girl spoke again, this time, he didn't understand what she was saying... asking him to made her understand?

understand of what? Transfiguration? that is not his favorite subject, not because he hate it, it just that its not really fit him..

"well.... I'm not saying I'm good at charms" he paused a bit

"but yeah.. i think i could help you a bit on that" he smiled, not forgetting that clumsy face he was making, he even scratched his non itchy head, well don't blame him for being so clumsy, his not so often talking to other.. he keep withdraw himself from people.. but Jessie seem different for him.. He felt relaxed and comfortable with her companion..

"anyway, first we need to find your books, don't you still needing those?' with a lower voice

"Hey,Raven. Would you tell me about yourself more?" Jessie ignored
about what Raven had say.

" Study about you may be more interesting than Transfiguration"

straightened her head again, Jessie put her elbow on the desk. Looking at Raven with wide smile. The books wasn't feel important anymore.

"The lesson can wait. But not my curiousity."


.... about you.....

Surprised and confused with Jessie question, Raven best reaction is blushing.. This is the first time someone actually wants to know him better.. but she want to study Raven? Huh???

it feels like he was a magical creature like hippogriff..


as he replied, he showed his clumsiness and nervous "Wh...Why do want to study me?" a blush came upon his cheek, the younger girl seem enjoyed to teased him..

NO! this can't continue!

Raven look at Jessie closely, more and more he was forwarding his face with intense look and a smirk in his lips.. He could see that Jessie is getting nervous with his changing but that was the purpose, hiding his clumsiness as he was actually... might be.. as nervous as Jessie.. he stayed calm to win the game.. He didn't like being dominated by a younger girl, he must take turn

he puts his back of the hand on his chin and gave Jessie a very cunning smile before he speak "Are you really want to Study me?" he watched the girl blushing and become awkward.. He a gave a grins

Seem like Raven just won and those smile haven't erased from his lips..

"You are an unique book, Raven.I will tell you something, my hobby is collecting various books, study about them, and taming them." Jessie could see the blushing in Raven face.

" I want to tame you." suddenly her smirk dissapear when she aware that the handsome face moving forward.

Her face turned into red and unconsciously take a back. But Raven face keep come closer.


Wa-wait...what happened?



Jessie just wanna make a joke!



"What do you want,Raven?"
　



Merlin!! She can't control her heartbeat. And Raven can hear it for sure.

Raven voice is deeper. And Jessie can't breath!



Kiss him.



NO



Kiss him.Its okay... Take your chance!



NO,JESSIE



KISS RAVEN! .Look at those lips, his exposed neck !


Jessie can't stop staring at his tempting smile turned into grin, trailing her eyes into his jawline, his bare neck....


And the voices keep debates in her head.

Jessie feel like she will faint anytime!

... and Genny was more than happy to comply to this open invitation to join Daxton. The first year passed by the Great Hall to bring a big sandwich for her and another one for Daxie to eat at the library. It was an unusual choice for friends to hangout outside school ours but she guessed Ravenclaws liked to stick around books more? It was hard not to categorize people, okay??

So. She reached the library and.... food was not allowed in??? With a hard bummed out face, the Gryffindor tucked their sandwiches in her backpack and walked further in looking for Daxie. It wasn't hard finding him, he stood out with the sitting-on-the-table-and-gazing-up-into-open-space. "Daxton!" She greeted happily, throwing her backpack next to his and pushing herself up on the table next to him. "Hi. Sorry I'm late, I stopped by the great hall, brought us two sandwiches..." She looked around... maybe they could eat them undetected?

With a smirk on his lips, He keep coming closer, he can see Jessie's face turn to red and aware how nervous she is. He didn't care.. temptation by temptation coming to him.. He touched the girl hair, caressing down, He could see those lips.. somehow waiting for him to taste it.. He desires it.. a red lips..

He took a quick glimpse, his eyes scanned if there is someone is watching.. He wanted it... but.. afraid to ruin everything..

Then..... something is coming to his mind, as he was getting closer to Jessie, a grins appears in his lips..

he hold the girl's chin.. he looked at her very deeply, his stare could freeze the hell and then.. as he was coming closer, he burst into a laugh.. "Ha ha ha ha"

Immediately he stop the laugh, afraid of being kicked from the library..

"what was you're thinking Jes?" he smiled and wiped tears in the edge of his eyes

"Come, lets get out from this library, before we're getting kicked out" he could see the change on Jessie's face, but then he took Jessie by the arm, and hold her hand, "Lets go somewhere else"


he smiled, and standing.. ready to leave the library, he hold no more desires to continue reading.. he wanted something else this time.. not studying, nor practicing some spells..

The handsome face was coming closer. Jessie inhale a deep breath. She could feel her heart pounding so fast. She could feel Raven breath in her lips. Her eyes shut slowly. Her body tensed up whe Raven fingers touch her locks and caressing it. How she loves his touch. She melts in his touch. Looking for ANOTHER touch in another part of her body. Her lips.


But the soft touch she's expected never coming. Her ears caught Raven laughter instead.


Jeslyn's eyes snapped open in surprised.She made a pouty lips and her face blusing madly again.


Did Raven just make fun of her?



Jessie's gaze moving into the desk. Avoiding those watery eyes of Raven.


What a shame!

The little girl took a glance at Raven when he persuade her to go outside of the library. She likes the way Raven called her Jess , the nickname given by Raven.


Jessie make a gloomy face. Is he want to leave her?

But she was confused when the boy hold her arms to her hands. She could see the sparkle in his blue eyes when the slytherin boys stand up from his seat. Not give attention to his books.


"Where?" Jessie squeezing his hands a little. Don't wants to lost again the touch she loves so much. But her cheeks still burning hot.

Could you stop blushing,silly Jess?

"Anywhere... as long with you Jess" He looked at the girl, and smile in his face don't have any intention to leave.

"we could go to the Great Lake or... Maybe to the Pathways" he continued "We could chat or maybe we could read book together in there"

Raven tried to introduce Jessie to his favorite place, place he used to visit if
he want to read or being alone..

He was hoping, Jessie likes place he enjoyed so much..

Blush upon Jessie cheek haven't disappear yet.. making Raven a bit worried

"Are you okay?" he bite his lower lips, worried with Jessie red face


oH Dear... Raven might went to far

"But, if you are not feeling well, we could stay here" he puts his hand on Jessie forehead, tilting his head a bit.. tender and soft gaze gush out from his eyes..

" Could you pick the place for me, Raven?"

Jessie only wants being with him. Near Raven. She feel save and comfortable. Even the boy always teasing her a lot.

[B]"No! No! I mean I'm okay. I only.... " [B]


Only what?
Can't stop her heartbeat wherever Raven near her?

What will happen if she says that? Will Raven hate her? She doesn't want to make another mistake. But her mouth seems take opposite action.


" I am okay,Raven. But not with my heartbeat. You always make it pounding so fast.It's been a days since our first meeting. But I think...since I visited you in the Slytherin table with the girl, I realize... maybe... I... I like you. I love you. I don't want to loosing you. "


Jessie whispered. And now Raven will hates her...

Daxton did not know if it was a girl thing, or a Gryffindor thing, but some people were alarmingly chipper. It definitely was not a first year thing, as he had been a first year and never been so exuberant. There was a chance it was merely a Genny Tate thing, except that that did not account for people like Char, and also that Genny Tate was not always quite so cheerful; he had a particular memory of the day he insulted Quidditch to disprove that theory. The point was, she was generally so enthusiastic - about everything - that every time they encountered each other he needed to brace himself for the overwhelming little... whirlwind. It was a Gryffindor thing, almost certainly, but perhaps he ought to do some research into the matter... not just into chipperness and sheer volume, but the whole enigma of human personality variation.

The mention of the sandwiches brought about a scrunching of the nose from Daxton as he was drawn from his reverie, and nothing more. No other recognition, no 'thanks but no thanks' (but when had he ever said something like 'thank you'?), nothing. What he did do, was pick up his notebook from the other side of him, and hold it up for Genny to read.

'I have a new challenge for you, if you think you are up to it.'

Daxton was not one for small talk or pleasantries; he tended to get straight to the point. The message he was showing Genny Tate was the result of much thought, particularly in the way he had chosen his words. Despite the fact he was dealing with a first year, and a Gryffindor at that, he still needed to be careful.

"pick a place?? Yeah, sure, how about we go the Great lake?" He replied

But suddenly Jessie went stutter and confused him, Whats wrong?

He looked at girl carefully, he noticed she was nervous as she was lowering her head and her tone..


what did i do wrong? slowly he hears Jessie voice, he try to listen to her carefully, afraid if something are slip from his ears

Then.. he hear it! A confession..

Raven were confused to what he felt... he was afraid, he don't want to disappointed Jessie but yet he is afraid.. he dont want her to feel sorry for being with him.. he is nobody, unknown, unfamous, nothing!

A sudden regret appears

He noticed who he is, but yet he also likes to be with Jessie, he enjoyed it, he wants it, he want to be with Jessie, someone that comfort him

"I'm not perfect" as he tried to speak and replied "Are you sure you want to be with me?" he want to make sure, as doubt keeps crawling into his heart...

After confessed her feeling, Jessie feel like she want dig her own grave. This is her first confession. Maybe Raven wasn't her first love. She has a crush long time ago. But never told to her crush.

Because her first crush never noticed the little girl.


She was a secret admirer.


"So do I, Raven. I'm also not perfect. Only young lady who want to be a great witch to ..... protect the peoples I love."



My Dad...


My Mother...



My family


Jessie released her hand from Raven. Feel scared.

Merlin... let Jessie have him. Because she really likes him. With Raven , Jessie could laughing wholeheartly, jealous like a madman, feel save....


She really likes him.


But what if its only her one sided feelings?


What if she's being egoist?



" I just want to be with you. I don't care who you are.A Slytherin? Nothing wrong with that.My my mother was a Slytherin."


Hold your tears, Jeslyn!


"But if you feel the opposite.... I-I..... "


Jessie hiding her rea face between her locks. Feel a shame.

Raven see when Jessie start to trembling, he felt sad for making the girl sad..

"I'm sorry Jessie, i didn't meant to hurt you, i... i... i just want to makes sure...

Feeling uncertain about himself, very raging worries inside of him..

"it's not being a Slytherin or Gryffindor, every house is the same, every house didn't decidèd who we are"

[B" It's just that, im being uncertain about myself, i don't feel the opposite"][/B] Raven grabs Jessie arms and full her into his arms, he hold her tight and carressing her hair...

He continued with whisper in her ears "I loved being with you, i felt the same Jealousy, i felt missing you"

Raven still feel uncertain, but the more he hold Jessie, the more he desire her, the kore he wanting her as his...

"Tell me, Jess.... what should i do, i don't know what to say or do... Light me"

Jessie can't hold her feeling anymore. She buried her face in Raven chest. Grabing his robe tightly.Enjoying his embrace.


" Is that true,Raven?"Jessie take a deep breath. Bring Raven aromatic to her lungs


[B]"Would you let me help you? Erasing the uncertain feeling inside of you?" [B]

Jessie always love the way Rave carressing her hair. Her mom used to do the same. And she also love it. But it feels different with Raven. Feeling stronger...


Jessie released her face from the slytherin boy chest. Looking at his face. Jessie let her chuckle turned into low laughter when she found out that how little she is compared to Raven.


She make an eye contact with Raven. She let her arms wrapped in his body tightly.

" What will you say if I ask you to be ...." Jessie paused for a while before continuing in whisper [B]"My boyfriend...?" [B]


She can't looking at his blue eyes. So turning her gaze at his blonde bang. Seemed so soft. The little girl fall in love with her senior.....

The girl says her confession and a desires to he his lover, Raven stood and look at her deep in the eyes, confused about the answer he will give..

Now, the empty eyes watched the girl as Raven mind wanders around..

He continued çarressing her hair and still wander what answer to be give

He try to say a word but so hard to came out.. until he find courage for not wating Jessie to wait for long.. he decided to make it as best as he could, as he also wanting to be with Jessie..

"i.. i.. do.. i will be the most happiest man with you" an awkward smile came from him..

Well... he did his best to talk.. while his heart beat is pumping like crazy..

"we could give it a try, i know i'm also want to be with you, but i'm scared for not be able to make you happy.." sad and mourn expressions seem explain something.. He doubt.. about himself..

Jessie smiled widely after heard his answer. This time she got the one she loves. Even he's not sure about himself.


"Thank you ... "Jessie whispered "Like I said before, let me to help you.I'll try my best to make you sure"



Her hand raised to his cheek and carressing it slowly. She was tilting her head as speak again.



[B]"Don't be sad. I'm sure you can make me happy. I want to make you happy with our relationship.And to be honest, I am so proud to be with you" [B] Jessie giggled again.


"So don't make those gloomy face,Raven. That's not the expression the happiest man make.Just let me accompany you, heal your sadness, and listen all your problems.Just... "　Jessie lowering her voice and caught worry looks in Raven faceDon't you dare cheating on me,my dear. With previous slytherin first year or another witch. I will learn how to use cucriatus curses in case it will be useful. " Jessie made a grin.



Awww...seemed like Raven got obsessive girlfriend this time

Peeves was BORED today and looking for some students to torment have fun with. The library was often good for this type of amusement, plus he had the chance to see the bulging vein in the Librarian's face again. That was ALWAYS hilarious!

Swooping around above the bookshelves unseen, he looked for his first unsuspecting victims. OOOOOOHHH, what was this?

Peeves spotted the two young students neglecting their studies and he slowly swooped down, making kissy-kissy noises that grew LOUDER and LOUDER until he came into view.

"Peeves KNOWS that the dating isn't allowed the library!" he announced with a gleeful grin. "You best get out before Mr. Baldy puts you in detention!" But he hoped he could see him flustered and angry because it was so funny to see!

He flew off through the library, cackling.

"STUDENTS KISSING IN THE LIBRARY! STUDENTS KISSING IN THE LIBRARY!"

Raven nods and make another clumsy act as Jessie’s comfort him.. but that didn’t last too long because soon later… Jessie start to whisper a deadly treat to him… he was shudder after hearing what Jessie told him..

“o..O..Okay” he nods slowly, as he watched Jessie and thought maybe he didn’t decided it with bright…
But then again, the girl made him happy, he did not felt alone now.. he have someone to share his stories.
He look at Jessie intensely, he hold Jessie to his arm and hug her tight, he caressing her hair slowly…


Until….. A LOUD VOICE YELLING SOMETHING HE DID NOT DO!

“Peeves!!!!”

"WE DID NOT KISSING!!!! And Don’t make any HOAX!" He yelled back and forget he was in the library!!!

Oh No! SOUND’S LIKE TROUBLE FOR THEM

“Peeves, lower your voice down” as Raven whispered to Peeves… but too late.. peeves has flew off.. Raven look terrible.. he look very worried for what he done.. “oH No” he wiped his face with rough
He look back and forth to Jessie and something that has flew… he mumbled to his stupidity.. later he clenched his hand tight.. as soon later he stare down and cursing peeves “ stupid, filthy, imbecile poltergeist, always making trouble!” he take another look to Jessie and soon after he leaves Jessie, an carrying his books in a rush.

He forgot he just become Jessie’s boyfriend.. that Slyhterin’s boy just walked from Jessie… Leaving the girl, with… pretty much sure, a Confused Face…
