Ryan smiled and said "Cool Ariana i love to draw but once quidditch practice starts i will not have much time to draw after that"

Belle yanwed and collapsed onto the couch next to Ryan. "Oh my. I'm actually tired." She curled her legs under herself and leaned against Ryan, resting one of her arms over his chest. "Ryan, can I ask what happened to your dad?" She looked up into his eyes, wondering if he would be okay talking about it.

Ryan smiled as he watching her collapsed next to him. She really looks like someone who need so rest and had no problem with that but he never would have guess she would ask him something about his dad. Taking a deep breathe, he decided that he was going to tell her. "Well. He had health problem and last year he suffer an heart attack which we all thought he was getting better but unfortunately he died few weeks after that. I guess it was his time." Not showing anything emotionally from the outside, he felt as if something inside wasn't heal properly but wasn't going to show it.

Belle blinked and frowned. "I'm so sorry, hun." She told him, running her fingers down his arm and over the back of his hand. She interlaced their fingers and squeezed his hand gently. "How long ago was that? Uhhm..If you don't want to talk about this, you don't have to..okay?"

Taika Ai took a seat farthest from the hubub of the center of the Library. It wasn't loud, but she really didn't know anyone and asking to sit at a table with students she didn't know made her nervous.

She curled up in a chair, opening a book and flipping the pages, looking for her spot.

Her face dissappeared behind it, all that was visible was the top of her auburn head, the large sea shell sitting on the side, keeping part of her hair out of her face.

He squeezed gently her fingers showing her that he was fine with that even if deep down it was still hard for him. "It's ok. It happens at the end of last term. We had to prepared his funeral over the summer. It was hard but had to be done." He was going to let himself drag down by this. He really believe that he should show a strong appearance in every circonstance.

Belle put her hand on her cheek and turned his face so that he was looking at her. "You're not over it, are you?" She could see it in his eyes. He missed his dad. She leaned her forhead against his and tried to smile if you ever want to talk to me about anything, I'll listen, okay?"

He took a deep breath before answering. "I have to admit that I missed him sometimes but they're is nothing that I can do. I mean I can ywell and everything but that won't bring him back." Stretching his arms a little since he haven't exercise in a while and take a mental note that some jogging would probably be appropriate this week.

"Yeah, but it mght make you feel better." She shrugged and bit her lip. "When my dad left, I stayed in my room and turned the music up really loud. My mom ended up getting me a punching bag, because she hated filling the holes I used to punch in the walls." She wrapped her arms around his neck, her fingers brushing over something...smooth. "Ryan, what's on your neck?" She sat up on her knees and looked at what her fingers brushed over. It was a scar that started right under his ear and continued down until it disappeared beneath his shirt. "Ryan, what happened?"

Ryan was carefully listening to her. He wasn't someone who lead out his emotion that easily and always believed that guy should be strong in every events whatsoever. "I guess we all have our way to deal with it. For me Quidditch help me a lots during harsh time." He had to admit that snapping a bludger hard was a very good way to put out is anger. Letting her play with her fingers with his neck, he then froze when she ask him about the scar. This was a subject that he never spoken to anybody and had in mind to keep it as a secret."It's nothing. Just a little incident at Durmstrang."

Raising is head and noticing that Lua was waving at him, he smiled and waved back. "Hey Lua. How are you doing?"

"A little incident? How far down does that scar go?" She asked, her eyes filling with tears. "Ryan, please tell me what happened." She put her hand on his cheek and turned him to look at her, caressing his cheek gently. The tears that were in her eyes rolled down her cheek and dripped off her chin.

He didn't knew what to say. "Yep. It's a little one. I can't take off my shirt here but it goes on the middle of my back but it doesn't hurt. It's just heal that way and I guess I will always have that." Caressing gently her cheek wanted to reconfort her without saying anything about what really happens since just thinking about it was rather painful and the pictures of what happens was ressurfing in his mind. "You don't have to worried about that. It was in the past."

"Doing good" she sighed trying to hide her true feelings, she was tired and seemed to run after her sprinting life but never caught up with it. "You?" she asked shiftily glancing back and forth between him and the girl he was with, last time she spoke to Ryan he didn't mention a girl friend then again he did have loads of friends around the school.

Belle cuddled up against him, tears still flowing down her cheeks. "I can't not worry about it. I live to worry." She burried her face in his shoulder, trying to make the tears stop. "Please..tell me.."

He smiled at her noticing that she was looking a bit tired. "I'm doing great. I have to admit that I don't have the same amount of work as you so I don't have that stress. I don't know how you handle with the N.E.W.T because it most be quite the works." Noticing that he didn't introduced Belle to Lua and not knowing if they knew each other, he decided to make the first move. "Lua this is Belle."

Ryan wasn't feeling like talking about it. He knew that what happens was rather painful and to his knowledge nobody ever talked about it. "I'm telling you, it's nothing to be worried about. We, boys, can play hard and things like that can happens." He really didn't know why she wanted so bad to know this but it would be worst for her to know than to ignore this.

Belle wiped her eyes and looked up at the girl, smiling slightly. "Nice to meet you, Lua." She looked over at Ryan and sighed, before getting up and wandering over to the nearest bookshelf.

Lu gave out a sly nod in Ryan's direction at his words, he had most of it accurately down. "I was hoping to have a sane mind through it, but apparently not" smiling weakly as flipped a page over.

It was respectfull of him to introduce her to his friend, she haven't met her before and seeing she was touching him a lot. It would seem rude to carry a conversation with Ryan when she's next to him. "Hello! nice to meet you too Belle" Lu smiled at the girl but her smile soon vanished as she took off to the nearest bookshelf.

She shot Ryan a questionable look, she couldn't help wonder if she was a part of the reason for the girl to venture off.

Ryan felt as if he hurt her feeling but it was of her own good. Something like that should have never happens and it wasn't something he was proud of. Sighing and shaking his head, he had to admit that she was persistent.

Ryan chuckles at her words. He have hearded that the N.E.W.T level was a rather painful one and was surprise at all when she mentioned the fact that she was working hard. "Well I'm sure you will get through this and with what my sister gave you, it will help you relaxed a bit."

He shook his head at her. "She's want to know what happens to me with an old scare and I guess she don't like the answer I gave her." He didn't blame Belle but the more she pushed, the more he wasn't feeling comfortable about it.

Belle sighed and ran a hand through her long black hair, scanning the bookshelf. She picked a random book and took it back over to the couches, plopping back down next to Ryan. She curled her legs under her and opened the book, trying to read it.

"Yea that definitely helps!" she whispered trying very hard not to glance at Belle again, then shifted her attention the book she had wide open upon her table. There she realized that there was more to Ryan than she noticed or knew, or maybe all boys where like that. All had a hint of mystery to them, explains some sides to Leo, the side thats filled with secrets.

She was still confused as to why he wouldn't tell Belle, if she was close to him or someone he trusted it would show some respect to their relationship to tell her or show her how much he appreciated her concern or at least her feelings towards him. Then again who was she to poke into other people's relationships? She had her own to worry about. The one that seemed to grow thin with every passing day. The image of herself in the owlery flashed through her mind, giving her second thoughts at what she did, maybe she was over reacting with Kia?

Suddenly studying seemed to be difficult and concentration escaped her, lifting herself up she propped her bag over her shoulder and carried her Charms book in her hand. "I've forgotten to do something" she lied, "I've got to meet up with a friend" or more so hide in the common room, or even girl's dormitory some place no one would find her until she straightened her thoughts. Or until Kia owls to meet up and discuss if they have done the right thing. Without a second glance she walked out of the library.

He smiled at her, happy that she had one way to free her mind of all the stress that was coming from what she had to work hard for but something was feeling off. Noticing that she was glancing at Belle, he didn't say anything about it just in case it was making her uncomfortable. Before he could say anything, he saw her leave, mentioning she had someone to met. "No problem Lua. See you another time." Looking at the way she left something wasn't right but then again, it might have been in his imagination.

Looking at Belle as she sat next to him, he was wondering why in a mater of seconds she decided to read a book when previously she didn't seems in a mood to do that. "So. Interesting book?"

She shook her head and sighed. "Not really." She looked over at Ryan and bit her lip. "I'm sorry that I was being really pushy. I just wanted to know what happened." She whispered, closing the book. She leaned against him again and put the book on the floor.
