Nessy blushed vigorously. "Shuttup you." She looked in the mirror and smiled at his reflection. "Guess I like what I can see too." She looked at the real him and smiled, her fringe covering her eyes.

Derec rolled his eyes. "I'm sure she did. Seriously I think she has a crush on that guy. Death glares and all when I left. I think they smoldered some of my hair off."he said, winking. He loved talking to her....for more than one reason. "Yes. Aren't I good at it too?"he asked, chuckling. He grabed a roll and took a big bite. Turning back to her, he frowned. "I have about the same. All of the ones Tally have, I have. Unfortantly."he said, grinning at Tallan. "I'm kidding."he added, winking. He looked at his watch and sighed. "Looks like we should go to class. Ladies first."he said, getting up and extending his hand. "I'll walk you to class dear Tatum."he said, grinning down at her.

Nicole rolled her eyes at Derec but he actually looked quite cute with Tatum, "are you read then?" Nicole asked turning her eyes to Tallan with a smile on her face and she stood up holding out her hand for him.

Tallan smirked happily to himself and stood up, forgetting about Nicole's hand and throwing an arm around her shoulder instead. "Yup, I am," he said, already starting to walk off. "What about you? You're the one that has to deal with me all day," his smirk was replaced with a smile when he thought about that idea.

ooc - alright, like I said, we're skipping the classes. So, please finish up RPing the morning, and get back to the fun part oh, and Lily Lupin, hope you don't mind that I dragged Nicole outside with Tallan if you do, I can edit

Tallan took a deep, loud breath as he stepped outside. He was carrying a few textbooks, and he was slightly upset that he already had quite a bit of homework. But Nicole was with him, and outside was a good place to do homework, when it was a nice day. And, well, anything's better with her, of course.

He turned to look at her for a second, then started over to a very shadey oak tree on the grounds.

Pat grinned sheepishly and put the mirror back in his pocket, pretending to ignore her blush, still visible on her pale skin. As you wish. Such a shame, though. He sighed and swung back around to face her and the rest of the table again, smiling.

ooc - this is so embarrassing...but I actually forgot about Jennalynn! ugh, but just pretend that she was at breakfast and everything, and I will not forget again. *shakes head determinedly*

Jenna sighed, and flopped down on the couch in the Slytherin Common Room, glaring at a first year until they got scared enough to move. When the rest of the couch was clear, she set her feet on it and stretched out.

She didn't know where Kesler was, or any of her other friends, and she was a bit annoyed. Oh well, they'll show up sooner or later.

OOC: It's alright, I was wondering.

Stefan walked into the common rooms after a rather annoying class of Care of Magical Creatures. They had to watch Bowtruckles for the entire hour. Such boring, annoying creatures. He walked through the door and saw Jenna on the couch. He smiled, she semed kind of quiet this morning. She might have just been tired or something. He collapesed onto the couch, enjoying to bounce back up after he sat down. He smiled and turned to Jenna, "How was your classes?"

Tatum was in a delightful mood, as was her usual. Especially after getting through all of her classes with topics of her interest. Well... all except History of Magic and Transfiguration... But she could get over that. Though her mood didn't have everything to do with classes. Also friends, one in particular. He had even walked her to class which somehow gave her a coffee buzz sort of effect.
Stepping into the common room she glanced around for any sign of her friends, but unfortunatly she didn't see any of them. She could assume that Tallan was outside. With a small sigh, she pulled out a couple of her books and started on the work that had been assigned.

Charlotte finally strode into the slytherin common room, not exactly in her best mood. Though, much better now that she was out of a class room. Oh how she hated school and all its classes. She had a hefty amount of homework to start on, most of which she did not intend to get to, and still had the same boredom from her last class--Astronomy. The professor had droned on and on about the same bloody star. "Hey Jenna, Stefan," Twiggy said, tossing her books on the floor next to the couch then taking a seat.

ooc: I don't mind at all!

"Fine with me." She finally admitted without any reluctance as she walked with Tallan towards class. Nicole kissed him on the cheek playfully with a wink.

Nicole was outside with Tallan and it was after classes, she grinned at him and got him to sit down and sat on top of him grinning. "How are you feeling?" She asked putting her hand on his cheek, she knew he didn't really like classes all that much.

Jenna watched as Stefan and Twiggy sat down and greeted her. "Classes were the same as always," she drawled, "Boring and utterly useless." she sighed and looked over to the two. "What about you two? Anything exciting happen on your first day?" she lifted herself off the couch, then fell back onto it, bouncing slighlty.

Tallan grinned as she sat down, and moved his bag off his lap. "Eh. Not bad. I can't believe I didn't sleep in History of Magic, though." he laughed. "Although, with you sitting next to me, it really should be no surprise." he smiled at her and leaned back against the tree. "It's suuuuuch a nice day," he murmured, closing his eyes.

Nessy smiled at him and got up ready to go to potions. She looked at him once more. "Ready?" She sighed inwardly and took a step away from the table so as she could sort her skirt out.

Returning from the lesson she emerged from the dungeons with Patrick with an unusual smile on her face. "Youre such a retard Patrick." She grinned which made her giggle considering because of him they had extra homework.

Nicole smiled at Tallan, she hadn't even really bothered to make any notes. She was having a lot more fun with him. "Yeah. It really is beautiful isn't it?" She asked and looked over he grounds her eyes landing on the lake it's shimmering water glistening from the sun.

Patrick shrugged, but stood up, nonetheless and followed her out of the Great Hall, saying, After you, mademoiselle. He winked at her once more before they headed down to the dungeons.

-------------

A smug grin was on Pat's face as he and Nessy headed up the stairs from the dungeons. He gave her his usual shrug, still grinning and said, Hey, I can't help it if Jaslene's wand in her pocket sparked on its own next to my pocket with filibuster's fireworks that happened to fall into her cauldron.... His grin became sheepish as they broke out into the entrance hall.

Derec walked in the common room casually, his shirt untucked and his tie hanging untied around his neck, his bag threatening to spill out. Looking around, his heart did a little leap for joy as he noticed Tatum. Alone too. Ruffling his hair out of habit, he plastered a heart breaking smile on his face, and slid into a chair next to her. "Hey Taty!"he said happily. Then he noticed what she was doing and he rolled his eyes. "Looks like your having loads of fun."he added, chuckling. He also grabed out some of his books and a bottle of ink and quill. "Want to, you know, work together?"he asked, smiling again.

"You're much prettier, though." Tallan said quietly. He was telling the truth, at least what he thought in his mind. He was still staring out at the lake, but his hand traced it's way through Nicole's hair, then rested on his own knee.

He was quiet for a bit, just listening to the sounds of everything around him, paying particular attention to his and Nicole's breathing. It was so peaceful, and he was with his favorite person - Shh! don't tell Derec, he'll probably cry - in the world. What could go wrong?

"Thanks Talllan, your beautiful too." She said with a wink, he truly was the most handsome boy she had ever laid her eyes on though. Nicole leaned towards him and kissed him on the lips softly.

"Welcome, Nic," He answered, smirking at her wink. He shivered slightly at what happened next, but his smirk grew into a full-blown grin. Yes, he was easily pleased.

He smiled and lifted her off of him, setting her next to him on the ground and putting an arm over her shoulder. "So, not much work is getting done, is it? I'll just have to blame you." he grinned and kissed the top of her head. Not doing work was just fine with him. He'd give that up for this any day, any time.

"If I'm with you it doesn't bother me." She said grinning, "I can always do it for you another time if your so worried. I never really thought you cared that much." She said grinning, she leaned against him putting her arms around him.

"Nah," Tallan said, shaking his head a tiny bit, concidering Nicole was leaning on him. "I think I'll live. I'd much rather be doing this." he promised, kicking his bag with his feet. The only thing in it were books and parchment. And quills and ink, but that didn't matter either.

"But I might have to take you up on that offer. If you did it for me, I'd be assured a great grade." he grinned and laid his head on hers.

"Well that all depends on what you do for me, I wouldn't mind too much. I'd like to see what I get in return first though." She said a devious smirk on her face as she said this.

Tallan raised an eyebrow, surprised. "Well, what do you want me to do?" he asked, thouroughly confused. He sat up and leaned forward to look at Nicole's face. Seeing the michievious smirk planted there, his eyebrow shot higher.

"You're one smart girl," he said, shaking his head. Chuckling, he leaned back against the tree again.

Nicole laughed, "you have to think I've that one. I'm already using my brain to get you a good grade." She said grinning at him, "you'll have to come up with a surprise. Something good too." She said grinning what he would possibly do.

ooc: Aw, see you tomorrow!

Tallan grinned mischieviously and nodded his head. "Alright. That I will do." he promised, his mind already whirling in hige, excited circles. He was going to do somethin' truly amazing...as soon as he figured out what that thing was. He thought it was a fair trade though. Nicole does his homework, and he becomes the best boyfriend in the history of forever. Everyone wins, right? But he just wins double.

Nicole grinned at Tallan and put her soft hand on his cheek, "thanks. It will have to be something really out of the ordinary" She said grinning, "I mean your already all I could want it should be interesting to see if you manage to impress me." She teased him and kissed him on the lips soft;y, she pulled away and grinned at him.

"Trust me. It'll be amazing," Tallan said quietly. He smiled at her hand on his face, and when she said he was all she could want. With another shiver after she kissed him, Tallan couldn't help the smirk that came back to his face. Shyea, he had the best girlfriend EVAH!

"What's your favorite flower?" he asked, trying to seem absentminded. He twirled a strand of Nicole's hair around his finger as he thought up a plan for what he would do to repay Nicole for the homework-doing. "Red roses? Or maybe red Lilies. Personally, I like red daisies." He didn't know if there were such a thing as red lilies, or red daisies, but if Nicole said she liked them, he'd find a way to make the flower red. Or any color she wanted, or whatever.
