He was surprised by her sudden change in tone. "Now 'm definitely going to do it soon." He winked at her and tried not to laugh.

Miss Rose watched Adia work with a keen eye. The girl seemed to do a decent job. "Yes, that's very good love. Thank you." She gave Adia a small smile.

He was slightly surprised when she slapped him bum but laughed with her. Soon the work was done and they were ready to eat. He held her and returned her kiss. He then led her over to the table and took out her chair for her to sit in. Then he took a seat beside her and started dishing out the food for the three of them.

"your welcome Mrs. Rose. I love to help put when i can." Adia smiled and sat down at the table waiting for Alex and his mom to sit down.


Adia loved it when alex held her in his arms. It was the safest and most wonderful place she had ever been. SHe loved how gentlemanly he was by pulling out her set for her. "thank you." She said smiling and winking at him as he dished out the food. "so will we be doing anything today? Tina is supposed to come sometime after school."

"Umm..I'd a nice dream too..but I cant remember any..clearly" Nick chuckled. Honestly he didnt remember any but it was a good one surely. "Yeah, she should..she's so time conscious" he said, "Shall we get ready for our routine, then? " asked as he gently let her down on her feet.

Within an hour they were inside their college campus. Nick said, "I guess today's my another hectic day. I've to attend all the classes today..no free time" as he parked the car. "So I'll meet you in the lunch hour, Tina" he leaned and kisssed on her cheek before they walked apart for their respective classes.

Mrs Rose smiled. "You're a lovely help dear. You should be around more often." She chuckled.

"You're welcome honey," he said sweetly, grabbinng into her hand momentarily. He loved being there for her. The little sweet gestures that she liked. Her happiness made him happy. He thought a bit at her question. "How about a nice game of Quidditch?" he asked after a minute.






"Aww, okay honey," she said returning the kiss on the cheek. She went to her class. It was a fun one where she learned a lot of interesting theory. But she was glad when the teacher let them out early. It would give her some time to check out the library before she had lunch with Nick.

She headed over there as soon as she was released, but was stopped suddenly when she heard fantastic music being played in one of the production rooms. She couldn't help but enter, the music was just so beautiful. She opened the door shyly and saw a boy that looked to be about her age working. He still hadn't noticed that she was there. He was a pretty cute boy too, though obviously nothing compared to Nick in her eyes.

Adia smiled. She was happy that she finally got to see a smile out of MRs. Rose. "Its no problem at all ma'am."


"Oooh. Now your talking. But arent you scared of getting beat by a girl again. Especially this girl again." She smiled and started giggling. She knew he hated when she made fun of him but he secretly loved it.





JacksonWas in the music studio editing a song when he smelt the sweet aroma of warm vanilla. He didnt realize that anyone was in the room with him untill he looked up and so this beautiful girl watching him. He smiled and said, "hello, can i help you? The names jackson, Jack for short." He stuck out his hand and wondered what a beautiful girl like this was doing here.

He rolled his eyes. "Come on Adia. You make it so hard to be gentlemany when you act like that. cause we all know that I am gonna wipe the floor with you." He winked at her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Seeing that the boy had noticed her she stepped cautiously into the room. She took his hand as he extended it saying, "Nice to meet you Jack, I'm Tina." She gave him a warm smile and added, "I'm sorry to bother you. I was heading down to the library to kill some time before meeting my boyfriend for lunch. I heard the beautiful music in here and I just had to come in and see..." She had a hunch that this boy was a Muggle by the vibes that he was giving off. She made a note to be careful around him at all costs.

"Ah, but if you lose, you might get a special treat." She winked at him and kissed his neck and walked outside to get her broom. She was such a tease and she knew it.








~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


He smiled as she shyly walked in and spoke. She had a voice like an angel. "well Hello there tina its nice to meet you. And dont worry its no bother at all, i was just editing some of my work. What do you really think? Dont just tell you think its beautiful 'cause you want to be nice." He smiled, as soon as she said boyfriend he knew it was to good to be true. But maybe they could become friends.

When he was in the last session, his stomach growled for food. He didnt eat much this morning, apparantely no enough time for that. He was impatiently waiting for the lunch hour.

When Nick entered the cafeteria, Tina was not there. So he waited for her to come. But what's wrong with her..it was so late..but didnt turn in. He started to bit worried because of Emily. Does she meet her or does any harm to her. He couldnt bear this thought, he stood up and walked out from the Cafeteri and searching all the places almost, but when he entered the Production room, he found her, talking with a some guy who looked like going to play some music.

Nick didnt know what to do. Could he be interefere them or just let them alone? he got confused a bit..but decided to leave them alone since they were not noticed him. He silently walked away, bit upset.

He sighed. "You know you make it really hard for a competitive guy like me when you say something like that." He chuckled lightly as he grabbed his broom and headed with her to the field at the back of his house.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She was relieved that he didn't seem bothered by her in the slightest. "Your work really is very beautiful. You do really good stuff. I wish I was as good as you. My boyfriend, Nick thinks that I will be great at music, but I dunno." She frowned slightly.


While she was talking she noticed Nick pop his head into the door, not looking too pleased. Of course he had been looking for her! She had been a complete fool, forgetting the time. He had been wondering where she was, probably worrying. But before she could say sorry he walked away. Excusing herself she chased after him saying, Nick! Nick!" She caught up to him. "I'm so sorry for not meeting you. I was going to come but I heard the most beautiful music and I just had to look. I hope you're not mad at me." She gave him a hug.

When he walked on the sidewalks, Tina had caught him up. He listened her with crossed arms across the chest. "Well..I'm bit upset acutally" he looked away as he leaned aginst the side wall. "You know I was worried about you. What would have I thought when you didnt turn in, on the very second day of your University?" he sighed but calmed down a bit as she hugged him.

"It's okay. I'm not mad at you" he smiled shortly.

Adia smiled, "thats the pourpose. To make you so distracted you cant play. That is why i partially think i beat you in school so much. You were distracted by me. but then again, we will never know will we?" She smiled and flew off on her firebolt and assumed the position.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Jack smiled, "So i take it you havent grown up playing an instrument or singing then? But you do look like a natural." He listened as she spoke about her boyfriend again. It felt like a jab in the heart but hey he did just meet the girl. "Nick huh? Whats his last name? i think i might know him." He waited for her reply noticing more then just her face was beautiful.

She knew that he was quite upset by his tone and body language. She felt guilty for being making him wait and worry. "Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. I just made a new friend and lost track of time and I feel bad about that. I promise that I won't let that happen again. I won't make you worry anymore." She hugged him tighter and have him a peck on the cheek. "And I can make it up to you tonight after we go to the book signing. I'll make you a nice meal or something. Or whatever you want. How does that sound?"

He laughed. "You devious girl! Well, your plan almost worked, but I think that I can resist you. At least for now." He grinned before adding, "nice theory, but you're wrong there. nothing distracts me during a game of Quidditch, no even a beautiful face." He got his equipment from the shed in the backyard and joined her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She nodded. "You're right, I haven't really played anything. Nick gave me a bit of a piano lesson last week, but that is all. I'm hoping to get a lot more experienced though. Nick has a huge music room at his house so I'll be using that a lot. We live together now, so that should be easy." She gave a big smile at his compliment. "Why thank you, I really hope so too, as I am to be Headmistress of the music school that Nick is planning to start. We're all very excited about that." She scratched her arm as she added, his last name is Frederick. He's in his second year of the music program and quite talented. He even played for the Royal Family for the university a few weeks ago and met the Queen. I was so proud of him even though I unfortunately couldn't attend. " She had gotten off on a tangent and it took her a second to realize that she hadn't asked much about Jack. "So what are you planning to do? What do you have in mind for when you finish university?"

Nick hugged her back,"It's okay, forget it. I just worried about you, and Emily makes me go bit worried about you as you know." he said and patted on her back. "Making friends is always good" he seemed back to normal now and chuckled at her make up ideas.

"Well..If you give me a chance, it'll go unlimited and dangerous" he laughed, "So do as you like..whatever from my Tina is more than a welcome."

She sighed with relief. She had hated that she had made him worry. "Yeah, I had forgotten about Emily. I haven't seen her around anywhere though. I've been trying to avoid her. And it's been working so far..." She was relieved by that. She had decided yesterday that she was going to try to ignore the girl and let Nick deal with it as he wanted to. "And yes, Jack is quite a nice guy. He told me that I seem to be a natural at music to him." She smiled thinking of the compliment that he had given her.

She laughed, "and what exactly would you do? I'm curious now." She honestly was. "I'll spend time with you again tonight. And hopefully you won't fall asleep again." She laughed a him before adding, "I forgot to tell you. I received a letter from Adia yesterday. Apparently Alex's mother wants my to visit for the weekend. So I'll be leaving tomorrow morning..." She felt a bit bad for not telling him sooner. "I'm sorry for not letting you know earlier, it had slipped my mind..." She put her hand on her forehead, feeling frustrated with her bad memory.

She nodded and said, "I'll make you a big meal when we get home since you didn't eat. I didn't eat either..." And suddenly she felt hungry too. Her stomach started to growl. "Yeah, I remember you telling me that, but you've heard me before. Jack hasn't. But maybe I just give off an aura or something." She was a bit perplexed as to how the boy that she had just met could see natural talent in her.

"I'll miss you too," she said patting him on the shoulder. "But It's only for a little while. I would have had you come too, but I know that you are busy now..." She trailed off as it was time to say bye for now. She squeezed is hand before turning around to go to her next class.

Adia giggled, "Oh i dont know about that one." Adia slowly changed her t-sirt into a bikini top. "Resist this." She smiled and went after the quaffle and took it out of his hands before he could even defend himself. "What do you think of that?" She laughed.




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Jack noticed she spoke an aweful lot about her boyfriend and not much about herself. "well i dont know, its not hard to learn. If you ever need any help, i play drums, guitar, sax, flute, piano, and i sing as well. I am actually in a band called the Pancakes. Oh and i DJ as well, to earn extra money." He smiled as she spoke. "Headmistress wow thats amazing congrats." He smiled, he thought about the last name for a moment, "Yeah that sounds familiar, but i dont know i'd ahve to see him. Ah yes, i played as well. To bad you couldnt go, we could have met sooner!" He smiled and listened to her speak about her boyfriend again. "well i am a composistion major, and a production major. So hopefully i will be able to either own my own production agency or work for one."

When she found him waiting in the parking lot she noticed that he looked really tired again. She decided that he would need a good nap even if it meant that he wouldn't take the book signing. As they were driving home she said, "you need a good rest. Maybe you should stay in and I can go to the book signing myself. I can take the bus..." She actually sorta wanted to travel on a muggle bus, their means of transportation interested her.


He was stunned for a second there, totally lost the Quaffle. "That's not fair Adia. How could I have been prepared for you doing that? But I can resist babe," he winked at her and managed to get the Quaffle back from her, laughing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tina gasped. "You do all that? I'm impressed." She nodded and added, "I'll definitely go to you if I need any help. And I'll check out your band and DJing work as well. So what position do you play in the band? And I like the title btw, I love pancakes." She smiled again as she said, "thanks. I'm not too sure how it will go yet, but it will be a good job for me, especially after we are married. And I'm sure that he will love to meet you. He loves fellow music enthusiasts. Yeah, I wish that we could have met sooner too. You are such a cool guy, my kind of person. I'll have to stalk you out again," she added, laughing. "And that is a very cool thing to major in. I dunno too much about that stuff, but it sounds really interesting."

"Oh im Sure you can darling." She conjured a water bottle and dumped the water all over her self. When he wasnt paying attention again she swooped out of nowhere and stolle the quaffle again. she giggled, "yeah you have complet control darling." She laughed.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Jack smiled, "yes i do all that. And thank you." he laughed. "Well actually, here as a cd from my band, and i am always on the night time radio for 109.9 london. i work there on monday, wednesday and friday.....Ah yes, we all love pancakes, and i have yet to find the best pancake. Not even me mum's!" She smiled and laughed. "well in my band i am lead singer, in the school band i play drums, and im on the choir." Again with the boyfriend....married, her? she cant be over 18 yet. He thought to himself. "well i cant wait to meet him..... Yes you will have to find me again. Usually im in here with any free time working on my music." He smiled, "Maybe one day i could show you. Its not hard. Its actually very fun."

"Yeah, I do," he said forming an idea. He conjured another bottle of water and dosed her with it, stealing the ball back while she was sputtering and trying to get the hair out of her face. He laughed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She was amazed. "You're on the radio and have a CD out? Wow. When do you have any time for a personal life with all that stuff?" She shook her head and added, laughing, "I know who makes the best pancakes. It's my best friend, Adia. You have to try them some time. They are to die for. I tell you what, I'm gonna see her over the weekend and I'm gonna see if I can get some for you for next time I see you. Like try to get the recipe for them from her. How's that?"

"Oh that was soo wrong" She said laughing and decided that once she got next to him to jump on him, which sent them both into the pond. She was laughing so hard once they came up she almost went under again. "That look on your face was priceless!" She laughed.




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




"yes i am, the CD i made myself, we arent signed or anything. Its just in case. As for a personal life, dont have much of one, but im always surrounded by people so its not like im a loner or anything." He smiled as she spoke about her friend. "Yes, well i will have to meet this Adia. She sounds like a great pancake cooker!" He thought for a moment, "Sounds great to me, i could use a good pancake!" he smiled.

He totally didn't expect that, to be jumped on and land in a pond. He was soaking wet now like her. He started to splash water at her, laughing, to get back at her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh, I see," she said nodding. "But that's still really cool. And I know what you mean about not being a loner." Nodding she said, "you can probably meet her soon. I'll have her visit soon I think. And when she does I'll let you know. The only problem is that she refuses to give me the recipe. No matter ho much she loves me she just won't give in." She laughed as she shook her head. "Say, can you show me some of your equipment? I have no idea how this stuff works. But if you're too busy I'll understand... You can always kick me out when you want to, I won't mind." She was starting to feel that she was wasting this guy's time. She was hoping that he wasn't getting tired of talking to her.

"no splahing!" She laughed and splashed him back. SHe jumped on him and pushed him down with al her might but couldnt hold him down. "Darn couldnt drown you." She laughed and kissed him.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Jack smiled as he listened to tina speaking. SHe was beautiful in every way. "Ah, well then it must be the best recipe because only people that will not let you see the recipe know how good it is." He laughed. "i cant wait to meet.....everyone!" He smiled and laughed. When she asked aout the equippment he checked his watch. he had about 45 minutes till his next class so he had some time. "Well sure what would you like to see? In there, " he pointed to the studio that had the mics and recorders and such, "Thats where the performers play and we record from in here. All these crazy buttons have a specific purpose, we can manipulate the sounds, make them faster or slower, etc." He smiled at his idea but didnt know if she would do it. "Would you like to sing a song and we can record it? Its up to you of course if you want to." He smiled and sort of blushed.

He doubled with laughter as she tried to drown him. "Well, I'm very lucky that you aren't as strong as you. Now let me show you how it's done," he said mischievously. He grabbed onto her waist and pulled her under the water, laughing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She smiled. "Well, I'd love to see all the equipment you can show me. As far as it fits in your schedule..." She noticed him looking at his watch. But perked up at his question. "Are you serious? I'd love that! Oh, this will be so awesome! And I'll have to tell Nick about it later." She was beaming.
