Ryan walks in the common room a bit pissed about how everything went down lately. They were in a good position after the match but it seems that everyone had gave up before the ends. All their efforts seems to have been flushed away. Throwing is back at the couch, he took a deep breath before even realizing that Agie was there. Something seems to be off in her and the first thing he had in mind was she was going throught the same thing that he was. Kneeling slowly near her, he watch silently what was going on.

Agie was busy in her own fury that she didn't notice Ryan walk in. She almost jumped when he knelt beside her. Agie looked up at him, and she seemed just annoyed as her. "I can't believe it." She said almost in a whisper. "After all the hard work we did."

She was embarrassed that he was there, but did show it. He was a friend first. And would probably never show interest in such a little girl like her.

Ryan smiled when he noticed her jumped. He knew that she wanted this as much as him but all this wasn't happening. All the hard work that they had done was not enough. This was making him burn from the inside but he was trying hard to hide it from most of them. Putting on hand on her knees, he was trying to calm her. "I know what you mean. We have work very hard for that and at the last moment, everything seems to go down hill. It's like everyone gave up and the lead we had have just disappear. I dont know if we have any chance from catching this up."

Saying those words was making him see red but at least he had a friend near him so it was easier for him to have a calm exterior. He had no clue of the strugge of the young girl and probably would have never even consider it.

Agie felt Ryan touch her knees and smiled a little. Her breathing became a little heavier at what he was saying however. She felt the need to cry, but was holding it in. No one here has seen her cry. And Ryan didn't know the real reason as to why she was upset. He only knew part of it.

"Gryffies don't give up. But everyone seems to be. I was so happy after our win... and now look." She said with great effort.

Ryan was finding it rather strange that she was like that over the fact that they were loosing the House Cup. He knew that it was meaning a lots but never he would have believe that it would bring Agie that far. Making her looks right in his eyes, he tried to be more reassuring. "Its ok to let go. Just let out everything you got and I bet you will feel better after." He had no clue where that came from but something in his mind was telling him to say that.

"As for the points, we have to find as many fellow Gryffie we can find and motivate them to do something for the house. We cant let it slide like that. We are fighter and must fight."

Agie looked down in her lap. She was still so angry with Kerry. "Thanks Ryan." She hugged him. "You really are a true friend." She meant it too. maybe she was just confused, and didn't like him....just as a friend. She smile at him.


"I know we can do it if we really put our mind to it. Where there is a will there is a way"

Ryan gave her a hugged back. He was happy to see that Agie was getting a bit better now. He didnt like to see her down. She was suppose to be sneaky and energic most of the time and that was the way he like it. "No problem Agie. You can count on me. I might not be perfect but I know how to listen to someone who needs it." He messed a bit with her hair in order to change the atmosphere of the room.

Grinning at her comments, this was the true spirits of Gryffindor. Hope was still there to reached and with effort and determination, they could get it. "That's the spirit with need, young lady. Let's see what we can do at that points."

Agie laughed as Ryan did a good job at making her feel better. "I know that Ryan. And I'm here for you too. But don't let anyone else know that because I will have to kill you." Agie smirked. "You sure aren't perfect." She teased. "But you'll do" She winked.

Agie knew that if they all worked together they could do this. " you are right. All we need is a little motivation."

Ryan grabbed a pillow and whack her with it. The more time was passing by, the more the Agie he knew was coming back. "I'm not the one who will bragged around at everyone about that. If you think that then you know me porely." With that said, he whack her once again with a pillow. The only reason why he said that he wasnt perfect was to have to opportunity to teased him. He knew he wasnt but it would never say something like that.

At her comments, he nodded vigorously. This was very true, motivation was the key and they had to find something to find the last motivation for all of them. "I know we can. We have to...."

Erin wandered into the Common Room, just back from a stroll around the castle. She'd been hoping to run into a few friends, but was unfortunately unlucky. That really didn't get her too down, though; she could find other people to talk to.

Erin's eyes lit up as soon as she made a quick scan of the room. A familiar-looking boy was hitting a younger girl with a pillow. Erin grinned. "PILLOW FIGHT!!" she squealed loudly. Erin dove over the couch in front of her, swerved around a large, cushy armchair, and grabbed a spare pillow off the couch the girl was on.

Then, with a giggle, Erin began to hit the two unidentified people with the pillow she was holding. Of course, there was no way they'd be hurt by her hitting; Erin was notoriously weak.

"I like it outside.It beats how I feel on the inside.My mind spining around with all the studing and everything eles."She smiled and felt at home in the common room"So how are your exams going?"

Still watching Agie, Ryan felt as thought someone else had jump in. Maybe it was the fact that he was feeling someone hitting him with a pillow. Well as for the hitting part, he could hardly describe as such. Not having hearing the person before this happens, he couldnt say if it was a girl or a boy but with the weak intensity of the way she handle the pillow, he could easily guess that it was a girl. Turning around to face her, he grab the pillow she had in her hand with his two hands and glance at her with a michievous smile in his face. "Well, well, well..... Hello there." he said in a deep voice.

Pulling her closer to them, he keep his eyes on her. "I think I saw you somewhere but not quite sure. So.... Do you have a name or shall I call you the Fearless Pillow Knight"

Erin tried to continue hitting the duo with her pillow, but soon, she felt to strong hands grab her pillow. As mentioned before, the girl wasn't overly strong; the boy's hand easily stopped her 'attack'.

Instead of trying to get the pillow back or grabbing a new pillow, Erin decided to talk. She was definately better at that than she was pillow fighting. "Hello," she said, a small smile appearing on her face.

Erin was pulled a bit closer, and she noticed that the boy was not only familiar-looking, but also rather cute. Not that she, uh, cared... Erin was already involved with someone. Still, that wasn't going to stop her from a bit of playful flirting.

Erin giggled. "I do have a name," she said, smiling mysteriously. "But I think I prefer the Fearless Pillow Knight." She giggled again before plopping down beside the boy. "And what should I call you?" Erin asked. "And you?" she added, remembering that there was another girl sitting there.

Noticing that the girl had gave up on trying to get back the pillow or find another pillow with whom she could hit him back, he put the one that he had with him next to him. He make sure it was the opposite side of where she was, not that he doubted that he could take control in case she took it back but as a precaution.

Presenting a hand in order to shake hers, he thought it was only polite to do so. She seems someone fun and easy to talk too. In fact she reminding him of a certain Huffie with whom he did have fun. He had to admit that he had seens her just a few times but she had made a good impression on him. Putting this thought aside, he went back to the present moment.

Laughing at the way she answered him, prefering to be called the Fearless Pillow Knight, he really didnt mind. It was just too funny. He knew that one way or another, he would find out her real name but he was fine with the fact of calling her by the name he have fashion for her. "You can call me RJ or if you have another name that comes in mind, I wont might either."

As she pointed out Agie, he looks at her with a grined on his face.

Erin watched as the boy placed the pillow beside him, on the side away from her. Ignoring it for the moment, Erin shook his hand. She decided that this boy, who'd just introduced himself as RJ, seemed nice. She was surprised she'd never met him before, though she knew she'd seen him around.

She quickly slipped her wand out of her pocket. "Accio pillow," she muttered, flicking her wand in the pillow's direction. In a split second, the pillow was back in her hand. She whacked the boy quickly with it, just once, before hugging it to her chest. "My pillow," she said cutely.

"And back to your name," Erin said, smirking. "How about Mister Pillow Thief?" she suggested, still holding tightly to the pillow.

Agie tried to duck, but the pillow just caught her. "Ohh you'll be sorry for that." She called, returning the pillow. "Sure you never brag Ryan. I believe you." She said sarcastically, getting hit with another pillow. She grabbed all the pillows off Ryan and started to whomp him with it. Stopping to flick her hair back ad let out a giggle.

Agie was about to finish replying to Ryan, when this girl distracted her....


Agie raised her eyebrow at this girl. Who did she think she was, butting in. "Umm excuse me. Are you blind, or did you know see that we were in the middle of a conversation?" She looked this girl up and down, something about her seemed strange.

"Fearless Pillow Knight? More like fearless pillow dork." She said under her breath.

Erin had decided that this boy was quite nice. When the girl spoke, though, Erin determined that she was a brat. But as usual, Erin took her comments lightly; it was always better to laugh about things rather than fight them out.

"Actually, I did see that you were in the middle of the conversation. I decided to include myself," she said with a smirk.

Erin snorted when she heard what the younger girl had muttered. Oooh, nice insult, she thought. Erin kept her mouth shut, though she was still smiling slightly.

Sam walked into the common room and sat down. taking out some parchment and a self ink quill he began to write it was a memorandum for his mother. He hadnt gotten threw the first line when his ees began to water. Wipeing them he went on writting the paper filling fast

Heather looked up as Sam walked in"Umm, Shel could you excuse me for a second.She got up and walked over to him"Whats wrong?"She hoped she wasnt being a bother but also wanted to help.

Shel smiled lightly. "No problem," he told her. "Go on."

When Heather had left, he sank into one of the several sofas by the fireplace, his favourite, warming his hands by it. It had been a long, long day, and he was already exhausted to the extreme.

"If you want to talk about,I'll be over there."She got up and walked back to Shel"So did you hear the latest gossip?"She sat back down on the floor and leaned her head on the wall.

Shel looked up when Heather returned, surprised at her quick come back. "Welcome back, sweetie," he said pleasantly.

Latest gossip? Now, what could that be? "No, not really," he admitted, shaking his head. "I've missed out a lot. So - don't keep me waiting; what is it?"

Kerry stomped into the common room, still fuming from Agie's antics in class. As she made her way in, sure enough she saw the little brat sitting and laughing with Ryan. Kerry rolled her eyes. "What now is she trying to make me jealous or something? Or does she go crying to Ryan when things don't go her way, to get some attention that she couldn't get in class?" Kerry wondered. The nerve of Agie trying to embarrass her in class like that, and then to carry on like a little baby, making a scene.

Kerry took another look at Agie and the anger began to boil up even further. She couldn't be in the room with her a minute longer. She headed straight for the stairs to get as far away from Agie as fast as she could. She just hoped Agie wouldn't follow her. If Kerry thought Agie made a scene in class... Kerry could only imagine the scene that would unfold if Agie chased her up the stairs.

He didnt knew why but something inside of him was telling him that one way or another she was going to try to retake the pillow back from his possession. He had nothing against it but one thing for sure is that if she was trying to hit him again, she would have to work harder to make it happens.

As she accioed the pillow toward her, he chuckles silently and didnt flinched when she hit him but he finded it rather fun the way she hugged it right after. "Well I didnt notice that it have a tag name on it miss the Fearless Pillow Knight and I think I like the new name you found me."

The way she kept holding on the pillow was rather cute and funny at the same times. He shook his head still laughing at the picture she was givin him.
Ryan was now litteraly laughing at Agie's reaction from been hit. He stick out his tongue at her when she fight back. "Miss is in rage now." Trying to pretend to be scared, he add. "Wow!!! How terrified I am."

What came next was something he could have forseen. The reaction on Agie when she realized the new girl was there was rather disturbing. He knew she could have some tempered but something like that was kind of new to him. "Agie.... Whats going on ?"

"Oh nothing big if nobody has spread it but theres a gryffindor who's sort of engaged and she feels that if anybody should know it should be her house first.Well it might as well be her house seeing as she has no family but her house to tell."She said twidling a ring on her finger
