First Hogsmeade weekend! No waaaaay! Rapunzel was so weirdly excited for this weekend and she didn't even know why - but there she was, skipping down the street, her Chudley Cannons bag bouncing on her hip as her blonde hair swished behind her.

Where to first? Butterbeer? Buy some quills? Some prank items? Hmm. Punz stopped dead in the middle of the street and scratched her chin, pondering where to go next.

Barry poped into the streat one of the first here no where to go? Where would Cale be? He had to talk to that boy before she came yes he did now where? where oh where? he waited for some others to pile in before heading off himself

Aubrey walked into teh street looking around amazed. She hadn't been in Hogsmeade before this and was quite excited. Looking around, she slowly walked down the street watching all of the students going in and out of the shop.

Fred was looking for some quiet time on his own. Right before coming here, he had made sure that Ariel was secure in the dorm. He didn't want to be running after her. His dog had that kind of habit and he didn't to be looking all over the place because she had fun chasing after a butterfly.

Pushing his hands deeper in his pocket, he walks without having a specific heading.

Antwone, with blue button down and casual jeans, waited for Jezzabell. He crossed his arms and looked around to all the happy faces along the path, looking to his watch every so often.

Jezz walked quickly down the street. She was late. Her hair was pulled into a braid today and she was wearing a huge grin as she approached her friend. "Sorry I'm late." She said, smiling up at him.

"As long as you're here now I'm find," he said, taking her in a big hug. "Where do you want to go."

Antwone pulled his sweater around his shoulders tighter, the October cold was getting to him.

Jezz hugged him back and then shrugged. "The Three Broomsticks? Nice warm butterbeer would be good right about now." She was just happy to be with him again. Last term had made her crazy.

Antwone stretched out his hand for her to take.

"Three Broomsticks it is."

Jezz grabbed his hand and blushed slightly as they headed toward the Three Broomsticks. She couldn't remember ever being in a better mood.

Naomi walked out to the main street of Hogsmeade. She hadn't been out here before and was not sure what was around and what to do. She looked around for someone to talk to.

Melinda, more than excited, glanced her watch. It was the first Hogsmeade weekend, and she would spend it with Chris, as an official couple, at Mme Pudifoot's. She took a deep breath and sat down on a bench, as she waited for Chris to arrive sooner or later.

Antwone walked back out of the Three Broomsticks at a brisk pace, hiding the terrible fact that he didn't want to stay in Hogsmeade for much longer. His pace was between walk and jog as he trotted on the pavement with Jezzabell behind.

Jezz was surprisedd by how fact Antwone was walking. He was practically dragging her down the street. They were almost at the end when she said, "Why are you going so fast Twone?"

"Just keep up, okay," Antwone said with urgency.

Jezz nodded. "Okay." She trusted him, and he obviously had a reason, even if he didn't want to share it. Trying to keep up wasn't easy, his legs were so much longer. She took a wrong step and tripped, falling to the ground. "Ouch."

Lucas looked around to see if he could find Emily or Willow or Theodore. They were nowhere to be seen. Well this wasn't going to be fun with no one to talk to. He looked at around and saw some benches. He could draw a map of Hogsmead! Now that would be fun. To have a map of Hogwarts and Hogsmead. He would be the greatest mapmaker ever! He ran over to the bench and pulled himself up in it.

His mommy would be so proud of him when she saw what he had done. He pulled out a fresh roll of parchment and a new muggle pencil. He would go back over the lines with his quill when he got back to his room and there was no wind. Well hopefully no wind. Some of his house mates were indulging in the bean casserole in the Great Hall a little too much.

He spread out the parchment and started on his map of Hogsmead.

Naomi looked over and saw a boy drawing something that looked like a map. She walked over to him and said, "Are you drawing a map of Hogsmead?"

Lucas looked up and saw that it was a girl that was talking to him. "Yes I am." He turn the map to show her what he had so far. He moved over on the bench so she could sit down if she wanted to. It seemed girls like to have a lot of space. "Hello, I'm Lucas, Lucas Greenwood." He said introducing himself.

Jasmine strode purposefully down mainstreet, absently returning smiles and hellos from the occasional student. She wore comfortable faded jeans and a soft fluffy lavander sweater. Her waist length dark hair was pulled casually into a high pony tail, but dark trendals escaped to blow gently in the cool breeze around her face. With her hands deep in her pockets, her bright hazel eyes scanned the many signs along the street, seeking out one in particular. The Hogs Head.

"Wow thats really good." Naomi said. "im naomi by the way."

occ: sorry i have to go to bed now, gotta work in the morning.

Kayla made her way out into the street and stood blinking back the tears. Of all the things to make her cry and it was her owl. Of course she could understand why she was crying, her pet loved her unconditionally and Kayla hadn't even made the effort to go and see her yet. Instead she was too busy trying to spend her time with a two timing. No scratch that how many girls were there...three!!! So it made him a four timing low life bas-...ugh she didn't want to think about it anymore it was making her head hurt.

"Kayla?" Celandine exited the shop and moved to stand right in front of her friend, her dark eyes gazing up at her full of concern. "You forgot your fudge so I got it for you." Cela thrust the packet at Kayla and chewed on her lip thoughtfully.

"Thanks Cela" Kayla took the package and rummaged in her pocket. "How much do I owe you?"

She looked at the younger girl's thoughtful expression and realised that she had to say something, she had just run out of a shop crying. "Sorry about that" she nodded her head back towards the candy store. "I guess after everything that's happened with Rosa and my being...away. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, I'm sure I'll be back to normal soon enough" Kayla gave Cela a faint smile.

She hoped that Cela believed that because she didn't want to be the one to tell her what was going on between herself and her brother.
