On this floor you'll see ways to charm or heal your knee.

Thomas jogged through the corridor he was looking for the trophy room, on his way he saw the charms class and the hospital wing in the was at the end of the long wide corridor. Thomas ran for a minute but then he got tired so he decided to walk.

While Grace was discovering the school, she saw a firstie on third floor corridor. She never met the boy, but she knew he was a firstie too. She wasn't sure which house he was in, probably a Hufflepuff or a Ravenclaw. She was so bored wander alone that she decided to talk to him. "Hey!" she shouted after, but she couldn't tell if the boy heard.

Reese wandered down the corridor, still on the hunt for her cat that Shana scared away. It's been about an hour and, yet, she still hasn't found Isabella. This was just getting ridiculous. She crossed her arms and continued down the corridor, keeping her eyes on the lookout for her cat. She as she was about to leave the corridor, she heard a faint 'meow' coming from behind her. She turned around and smiled when she found her gray cat.

About time.

She walked over to Isabella and picked her up. "There you are," she said, scratching her cat between the ears, "Never run away like that, again." Next time Shana scares Isabella, she's making the poor little girl help her find her cat with her.

Jack couldn't remember for the life of him where his Herbology book had wandered off to. He hadn't left it in Transfiguration, had it? His gut told him that it was in the Great Hall, sitting on the table next to his abandoned water goblet.

As he was walking, he noticed someone familiar standing around in the corridor ahead of him--it was Reese. Perfect. He had been needing to talk to that girl for some time now, ever since the catastrophe at the feast. He hoped that she really hadn't told a lot of people about the whole bodyguard ordeal...sure, he wanted to be known by everyone around the school, but not cause he was a BODYGUARD. Blech. What a horrible reputation that would be!

"Reese!" he called, waving at her as he walked up to her. "Erm....whats up? I mean, hi. Hi, how are you? What's up?" he said, stumbling over his words.

Reese heard footsteps approaching and held onto Isabella. No, she was NOT going to run off again. "It's okay," she whispered to her cat as she turned around to face the person who had arrived at the corridor. Oh, it was Jack. Oh, wait, no, it was Jack. She really didn't want to talk to him since the whole incident at the opening feast. Since, he told her they needed to talk and the talk wasn't about Astronomy. If it wasn't about Astronomy, then was the heck was it about?

"Oh, hello, Jack. I'm good. Thanks for asking. How are you?" Reese said. She couldn't help but giggle at him from stumbling over his own words. Nervous much? "Oh, I'm not up to anything. Just- you know- the same old things. Attending classes and such," she told him with a nod, "How about yourself? What have you been up to?"

Jack took a deep breath. Ok, he was going to lay it all out on the line, right now. He was going to set the record straight. Cale wasn't even here, and yet somehow the ex-prefect had caused him SOOO much drama it was unbelieveable. Of course, the drastic rise in activity in Jack's social life was a welcome change, but he would never admit that to anyone.

"Oh, then, do you mind if we...talk? I mean, we kind of like--well, you see, there was a teensy bit misunderstanding. I guess, erm...Cale told you about this whole bodyguard thing..." oh Merlin, he was crashing and burning right now. This was horrrrrrible. "Well, let's talk about it. Wait, I mean...what did he tell you, exactly?"

Reese didn't like where this was going. Especially when Jack asked if they could 'talk'. Oh, geez. She had a feeling that she was going to get into trouble or something. She sat her cat on the ground, not really caring if it ran off right now, and look back at Jack. Not really liking where this was going. She stood as still as she could as Jack started talking.

"Oh, okay. Let's talk about it. That's fine," she told him, crossing her arms, "Well, Cale just said that you were here to watch over me and Anna." And that you'd be acting sort of like a mole... Erm, we're just going to keep THAT part of the story out. Jack didn't need to know that Cale called him a mole. That was just between her and Cale. "Why do you think there's a misunderstanding, Jack?" She asked him, raising her both of her eyebrows, "I mean-" She stopped talking and thought back at the feast when Jack went at Anna and her like a madman when... she told Anna about him being a bodyguard. "This has something to do with what I told Anna, isn't it?" She quickly added.

Jack shrugged. "Well, erm...it's probably best if Anna doesn't KNOW about...I mean, erm, lemme put it this way. BODYGUARD is probably too strong of a word. Cale just wanted me to keep an eye on Anna cause--well, he doesn't trust the boys at this school as far as he could throw them. And he KNOWS Anna would NEVER cheat on him or anything, but--I think he's still worried some boy is gonna do something drastic. Like--put a love potion in her drink or something," he said. No need to point out that that had already HAPPENED, according to Cale.

"But I don't think he wants Anna to know that any of this is going on. I erm...didn't even know that YOU knew about the whole set up till the feast," he explained.

Reese nodded as she listened to Jack. But- wait- that's why Cale got Jack to watch over Anna? Was she suppose to know that Cale got Jack to look over Anna because he didn't want guys to ask her out or something like that? Well, she didn't know that. Guess you learn new things everyday. "Oh, okay," she told him.

"Actually, Jack, I didn't know any of that. Like, the details and everything. I didn't know WHY Cale wanted you to look over Anna. He just told me you were just suppose to look over her. You're the one that just explained everything to me," she told him with a smile. "But, I am sorry. I didn't mean to tell Anna. I didn't know it was a secret or anything. Again, I'm really sorry."

James walked, smiling. It had been a good start to this year. Friends were seen, people talked to. Now it was time to be alone. He noticed that this year he was less tense, ideas for inventions actually flowing smoothly. He took a deep breath. What a wonderful life.

Kel, hurrying to get...somewhere, he really didn't know, wasn't paying much attention to where exactly he was walking. He was looking at the ground, but thankfully he looked up just in time to not run into some guy that just standing around.

"Whoa!" he muttered under his breath, stopping dead in his tracks. "Sorry about that." he added, taking a step back.

"No worries. Just watch where your going next time. I'm James, James Longbottom." James put his hand out to the stranger to him. He looked like a third year, Ravenclaw.

Ohhhh, well that made sense. Cause once the whole story was explained, it made Jack seem a lot less--narc-ish. If that was even a word. "Well, he really should have told you, in my opinion," Jack stated. Silly old prefect--he was probably too busy worrying about his hair to disclose the details to one of his best friends.

"Well, since she apparently didn't believe you, we should just let the whole thing drop. And, I promise I won't go running to Cale if you get a boyfriend or anything--quite frankly, I know he has your best interests in heart but you're a fifth year for Merlin's sake! He's got to let you have SOME freedom." he said.

Kel chuckled and nodded his head. "I usually do...must be distracted today," he said with a shrug. When the kid introduced himself, Kel did the same. "Er, Keltan Micheals," he said, shaking James' hand. He glanced at the house crest that James had on his robes. "Gryffindor, eh? What year?"

"Fourth. You? Nice to meet you Keltan." James looked at the kid. Seemed weird. Something about this guy reminded him of himself, but like his first year. "Anything happening in your life?" he said it like they had been friends since first year. Weird.

"Third." Kel replied, holding back his whole long explanation on how he was really a first year and blah blah blah. "Nice to meet you too," he added out of habit.

Anything happening in my life? he thought blankly. No, there was never anything happening in his life...unless you thought about coming to a real school for the first time...and having to deal with everything at once. And then there was Fwig, someone who constantly came up in his thoughts when all he really wanted was for her to go away. But...how to say that? "Just confused about some things," he muttered quickly. Seriously - why should this kid care about what was going on with Kel's life?

"Alright." James sensed this guy didn't really care to say anything. He just nodded and thought. Gotta get out of this somehow. "Nice meeting you, don't want to interupt you from wherever you were going."

Feeling like an idiot, Kel shrugged. "I wasn't really going anywhere in particular," he said. That probably sounded weird - was it normal for people to just walk around Hogwarts, alone, for no reason in particular? "It was nice to meet you too...see you around?" he didn't know if James was leaving, or if he, Kel, should leave, or what, but he kinda hoped he'd see this guy again. Kel was in desperate need for some guy friends, considering he was only friends with girls so far.

"Yeah, tell you what, whenever you need to talk about confusing things, tell me. I know we just met, but trust me. I was just walking down to the lake if you wanna join me, or whatever." James said. This guy seemed to be hiding something. Again, reminded James of James. This guy needed help, it seemed.

Kel nodded again at James, then before he could stop himself, he muttered "A girl." Crap! that really sucked. But...maybe James could help him...he was a fourth year, after all. But...the problem was, Kel didn't exactly know what the problem was. It was going to be hard to explain...

James decided to stay there, where he was. "A girl? That's your problem? Alright, who is she, what house? Explain." James had never helped anyone with a girl problem, he was usually the one that had them. He tried to remember those people who had helped him and tried to imitate him. This was going to be intresting.

Shana wondered round school,she didn't know what she was doing here but now she was here she might aswell stay.She sat down by a wall and sighed.She needed to begin to find something to do..like study mabye but right now she didn't want to.She was bored but studying wasn't one of those things that made people un bored.And Shana was perfectly happy sitting on the floor here for a while.

So, was this talk over? Can we talk about Astronomy now? Or something that is school related? Anything would do. As long as it didn't make Reese feel like she was in trouble. She already felt like she was getting in trouble with Jack about telling Anna that stuff at the feast. She had an urge to ask Jack if he was mad at her for telling Anna that stuff. She really didn't want Jack mad at her, because she liked this guy and it would stink if he was already mad at her. "I agree. Cale should have told me the whole details to why you were looking after Anna," she muttered. Ask him if he's mad at you, Reese. Gosh darnit. You won't know unless you ask. "Uhh- Jack, are you mad at me?"

Reese nodded. That was good Anna didn't believe her. Wait, weren't friends suppose to believe one another? Well, this was an exception. She actually didn't want Anna to believe her. That would just cause for havoc within the situation if she actually believed her. "Okay. I'm cool with that," she told Jack, adding a smile after she spoke. Goodness gracious, Jack brought up the conversation about her getting a boyfriend. Literally, was she really going to let Cale stop her from getting a boyfriend? Uh- NO! Like Jack said, she was a fifth year and she needed some freedom. Wait... some? SOME?! Couldn't she have complete freedom? "You are completly right, Jack. And, thanks, for telling me you won't run to Cale when I get a boyfriend. If I feel the need to let Cale know that I have one, if/when I get a boyfriend, then I will tell him," she told him. Until then, Cale was going to be clueless to her relationship status. For all he knew, she could had a boyfriend right now. Bwahaha.

"So, since that's all taken care of. Would you mind if we change the subject?" She asked him as she wandered over to one of the corridor walls to lean against it. The real question now was: what to change to subject to? She pondered for a moment and then thought back at the lake where she had an outburst with Shana. She still felt a little sad that she blew up on Shana, but that little girl was asking for it. "Jack... do little kids annoy you? You know, little second years who won't stop bugging you about stuff." She said, trying to hold back her anger. Why shouldn't she be angry? She didn't like being bugged into stuff especially when she honestly didn't WANT to tell Shana about the kiss with Cam. Grrrrr.

"A girl." Kel repeated, resisting the urge to look down at the floor. He opened his mouth to tell James to forget about it, when James asked a question. Two questions. Two questions that Kel really didn't want to answer.

"Her name's Jennumara Blood and she's a Ravenclaw." he said really fast, leaving out his nickname for the girl. Hopefully James didn't know her...or, maybe if he did that would be a good thing? Who knew.
