Ruby smiled as she took the seat across from her Brian, "Come on in Brian," she said hoping she could trip him on the way in.""It is okay Ruby I will leave you here with Rachel and Nico just wanted to make sure you got here okay," he said with a smirk, "I am going to find the twins they always make me laugh, good bye Ruby, Nico...Rachel." As Brian left Ruby breathed a sigh of relief, "I am going to kill him," she said, "he is getting so annoying."

Rachel forced herself to smile slightly at Ruby, she couldn't let her know anything was off. But then again, she probably already knew, Rubes was incredibly perceptive. She looked up at Brian as he said her name and gave a nod. "Well, we'll be seeing you Brian." she replied then turned as Ruby sighed in relief. Brian was being annoying...? The boy usually didn't even say alot! She could easily agree with killing him, she was angry he had the way of making her so confused. NOT FAIR!

Nico smiled when rachel sat next to him. For some reason,it made him feel,weird,but in a good comfortable way. "what's he doen to you?!"he asked ruby,standing up suddenly,daggers thrown as he watched him leave through the compartment window. "I don't like himm."he mumbled very quietly.

Rachel pulled Nico back down as he sprung up. "Relax Nico, your going to make him come back and start a fight right here on the train, we don't need that." she said calmly, they didn't. And personally, she was sort of happy Brian wasn't staying, she still needed time to think. "Anyways Ruby, what HAS he done that has you so annoyed?"

"fine,but next timeee i see him i swear i'm gonan sock him in the face."he said, he looked at Ruby suspiciously. "yeah whats got you all =worked up,and worried?"he said, Hades trait,he could read his sister's emotion like a book.

Rachel looked up quickly and was about to tell them but Brian's threat was still clear in her mind, "Did I say I was mad no I meant that....." she started to think quickly before they caught on but she couldn't so she just looked at them.

Rachel shook her head and lightly elbowed his ribs. That wouldn't work if they wanted to find out what was going on. To do that she'd...oh gods...she'd have to pretend she felt the same.

Rachel raised an eyebrow, maybe Ruby would feel more comfortable telling Nico, besides, she had a new resolve on what she needed to do. She was going to hate herself for this, it made her no better than Aphrodite and what she'd basically done to her father. But she had too, something wasn't right, and Rachel wanted to know what. She stood from her seat, "Umm, would you guys excuse me...I need to go find...Brian." she glanced at Nico, her expression saying she'd explain later, before running out the door and calling after him. "Brian! Wait up a second!"

"That is total crap sis. Tell me now."he said,narrowing his eyes suspisiously. "Why are you so hesitant?"he asked her, "I mean i am your brother,you can tell me anything."he said.Nico caught her look,he nodded as if he understood. But it bothered him. What did she need to talk to him for? He kicked the floor in anger hoping Ruby wouldn't catch it.

Ruby watched as Rachel walked out she turned to her brother, "I can't tell you, I wan to but he threaten me," she said afraid of what Brian would do if he found out she told Nico, he would definitely tell him her deepest secret and she didn't want her brother to hate her after she found her."

Brian turned around as he heard his name being called, he smiled as he saw it was Rachel, "Hello Rachel," he said as he looked behind her to see if Nico was there "No Nico I see I could have sworn you two were attached at the hip the way you follow each other around."

"THREATENED YOU?"he said,angrily. "YOU?of all people you?"he said in disbelief. "tell me now,I promise not to freak out."he said,though really it was hard for him to keep promises.

"so I'm bored. John Edward. What are you doing?"he siad really really bored.

Rachel rolled her eyes, "Attached at the hip? I should say not! No, merely to friends talking. You know, the way I've always done with Edward and John. She stepped closer to him and slipped her arms around his neck. "I definitely wouldn't do this for Nico..." she said, trailing off. Convincing enough? She certainly thought so.

Ruby looked at Nico and understood, "Oh no that is not what I meant he didn't threaten to hurt me, he would never hurt me anyway I could kick his butt if I really wanted to," she said looking at her brother, "Promise you won't twll Rachel."

Brian smiled as she talked and then she stepped closer to him wrappin her arms around his neck, "Umm..Rachel what are...." he began but he lost his train of thought he was starring into her eyes her, beautiful eyes.

"I promise,but like is it about her,what did he do?"he said suddenly getting very angry.

Rachel swallowed and smiled at him, not a smirk, but an actual smile and she ran her hand through his hair. "What Bry?" she asked innocently, her face inching closer to his. Oh man, Nico was so going to hate her for this. But she could explain later. Right? Yeah.

Grover glanced out the door and saw the girl Rachel with Brian. "Uh oh, um Percy? Look at that." he glanced apologetically at the girl Annabeth.

Draco laughed, imagining the scenario and adding a bit of his own ideas. "Shall we just get some new beaters?"

OOC: What position does Draco play? I'm confused...Also, when do you suppose we will be interacting with the main plot?

"Oh My Gods."was all percy could say." i haven't even seen Nico with this girl,and i already know he lieks her. Now she goes running off with brian,WHAT IS GOING ON?" he asked bewildered,getting angry. "he always gets sucked into this crap."he said,sighing. "Ugh."


Nico sneaked a peek outside,he saw it, he slapped himself in the face. "Nahh,your picturing things he thought."and thought nothing more of it. "so?ruby?"

John had reached the other room again, his twin jumped up and gave him a big hug he was so happy to see him in one peice again. "Wow, bro!" John said and they both started laughing. They walked over to a seat near the corner and started chatting nonsense like they always did. "It's crazy in there" John said to Percy and Grover becuase he thought they would have wanted to know what he had heard. After he'd said he returned to talking with his brother then got out some cards of some sort and they started messing around with them, being quite loud. Once Percy said he was bored John replied "exploding snap! play if you wa- oops" the card he'd had in his hands fell and exploded near his twin who jumped.

Grover nodded, "Poor poor Nico...what's up with this girl? She's kind of scary...Look at her! She looks like she could rip you to shreds or something!" he said with a shiver, as his eyes, started to look somewhat like a goats. Urgh! Not now!

As Rach played with his hair with one hand she raised her eyes to meet his, "I'm sorry I never noticed before Bry, but I...I like you too!" oh crap! She hestitated...but, that would probably be seen as shy. Love was blind right? And if Brian really liked her, he wouldn't have noticed. She closed the distance and pressed her lips to his. Urgh, she felt horrible!

"She perfect for Nico though."he said. "Aw dangit,they're kissing.:dang he thought. You stupid fates.

Grover shrugged, that was true. Nico could be scary when he wanted as well. His face fell, they were kissing? Poor poor Nico..."Is this when we beat up the guy and scream at the girl?"

((I think Draco is the Slytherin Seeker, isn't he? Or he was as far as I remember. I dunno if he ever changed to a different position.))

Alexandra groaned at Grover and Percy. "You two are just impossible. Why don't you mind your own business for once?" She was, however, a bit intrigued by what was happening. Brian and Rachel were KISSING. RACHEL was kissing someone. Alex never thought she'd see the day.

Grover sat back, "Sorry. We're worried about our friend. He seems to have taken a liking to you friend. The one out there currently snogging your other friend Brian." he shook his head, oh gods...that was confusing!

"I know."he said,and groaned, "This is so confusing,he finds the one girl who seems too be the only one who could keep up with him,and handle him,and then she goes and kissess brian,its just so aghhh."he said irritated. "and were not even at the school yet,like what the hades?"he asked himself mroe than the others.

Ruby looked at Nico, "Brian doesn't really like Rachel," she blurted out, "he just didn't like seeing you with her." She slapped her hands over her mouth and she looked at Nico worried.

Brian felt Rachel's lips on his it didn't feel right he had to stop this. He took a step back from Rachel breaking the kiss, "This is not right," he said, "not right at all."

Grover nodded sadly, "I know what you mean. Poor Nico..." he sighed, he really did feel bad for the scary person of their group.


Rachel was relieved when Brian stepped back. But she couldn't show it. She placed a hurt look on her face. "What'd you mean Brian..." she asked, sounding like someone that was just rejected and immensly hurt by it. Pfft, yeah right.
