Olivia nodded, yes now and yes why she was leaving."I can't be here while she is here, Ella. It's just too much for me to take."she said with a sigh. She wasn't brave enough to handle Savannah."I don't know if he likes her any more....he might have changed his mind knowing his little Savvy is coming back !"Bleh, that thuogh made her want to throw up. Savvy ? She probably had so rediculous nickname for him as well.

Ella sighed. "That's understandable I suppose." She said blankly. The more she thought about it, excitement seemed to fill her up. She couldn't wait to finally stand up to that girl. As it was something she wouldn't dare do at Beauxbatons. "Savvy?" Ugh. That was disgusting. "If Aiden had any sense, then he would ignore that girl. Oh my gosh, i'm going to be having serious words with him." For starters, Savannah could possibly get in the way of their friendship. That was NOT going to happen.

Olivia nodded, not wanting to talk about it any more. She didn't want to seem like a coward even if she was acting like one. This girl though, Savannah was a nightmare. Olivia chuckled as she heard Ella speak,"Yeah..Aiden calls her that."She said with a roll of her eyes. The thuoght of them to being together was just icky. Ick. Ick. Ick. Olivia then shrugged her shoulder,"He is a boy, Ella. Boys don't have sense."she stated like it was so obvious.

Bleugh. "Really? That seems so.. unlike Aiden." Ella said with a thoughtful expression. "I still don't think you should leave 'cause of her though." Ella admitted, but it didn't look like she was going to sway Olivia's decision. "I uh.. will surely miss you Olivia." She said with a smile. But she was really bad at this soppy-goodbye stuff. She cleared her throat then looked away. To be honest, she wouldn't miss Olivia THAT much. She was a bit of a blabber mouth. But she was a lot better than Savannah. Ugh.

Annie nodded, agreeing about Drew's and one of their last years together, and that once he graduated, they would have to stand the whole writing letters and seeing each other just a couple of times during Christmas break. "Right, Christmas break..." She repeated, letting out a sigh.

"A fair share?" She asked, shocked. "Wow, you make it sound like it was another bloody fight..." Like when Annie went to visit Drew's house and her boyfriend had a scratch in his face.

"You think so?" Annie asked, sort of blinking. It was odd, her evil smile would be considered as a threat when she used to play soccer. "You know, you're the first person that says that, because...usually, this smile is considered a menace from when I was a soccer team captain...all girls knew that I had a crazy idea..." She laughed.

Drew gave Annie one last light squeeze before pulling out of the hug. "Everything is going to be alright." He said taking her hand crossed fingered.

"It kind of was. It was a fist fight so there was punching and punching lead into me having a bloody lip and Matt a bloody nose. After that we were fine and we've never done that again. But Matt sometimes does scratch me like when you came over but he never means to." He said with a small shrug.

"Well yeah kind of. I guess it sort of looks like that. But I also know that you wouldn't hurt me so it doesn't scare me so much." He siad with a chuckle. Well yes of course Annie could hurt him buuuuut would sheee? Probably not.

Olivia shrugged once again."He said it himself, Savvy...bleh..."Olivia felt like she was going to vomit. That was just gross. Olivia sighed as Ella spoke,"I have to Ella, I can't be near that girl."She said and then smiled at Ella."I will miss you too, anyway..."she looked down at her watch,"I think it is about time for me to leave.."

Andrew always had the best way to make Annie feel great, although the sad circumstances. "I really hope so, and thank you for making this go a bit...softer than the hard fall it'll be..." Because it was going to be so weird to not have someone like him, like her boyfriend leave for a whole year and just having the time to chat in letters and for moments during Christmas time.

A little twitching, crunching in, and shivering were in company of that bloody story. "Wow, that was...shocking. I'm glad that it has not happened again..." Annie said, taking a breath of relief, then smiling.

"Hurt you...are you nuts?...It'd be an accident, like with Matt." She told Drew with a firm nod.

It was weird enough that they had a nickname for each other, let alone it being for Savannah. It was just like Trixie and Milo's weird nicknames for eachother. Ick. "I understand. I want to get up and leave myself." She sighed, but that would be impossible for her. She had to make it work in this school. No dropping out... or being kicked out. "Oh. Already?" Ella said, turning to face her properly. "Well... bye then." She said flatly.

Olivia nodded her head, tears starting to fill up in her eyes."I'm going to miss you Ella."Olivia said, reaching over and hugging Ella."give her hell, alright ?"she whispered in Ella's ear, Olivia then pulled away. She had a smirk on her face as she waved goodbye to her friend."Write me, alright?"

"It will, and it's alright. You shouldn't be sad about something that won't even happen until next term." Drew said smiling slightly to Annie.

"Yes and no. We are normal brothers we fight. But since we are a bit older it doesn't happen as much. And soon enough Matt will be gone toooo." He said with a small chuckle.

"I know...I know you wouldn't." Drew said smiling wide.

Being on the ground floor already, Aiden decided to wander over to the hourglasses to check up on the house points. Eh. Not the greatest idea. Every time he checked them his house was in last place anyway. Damn Slytherins. They were only winning because there were so many of them!

Back to the Hourglasses. And ahh, back to the place where she could plainly see that Slytherin were in the lead on house points. Oh what's this then? "Oh. Hi Aiden." She said with a smile as she approached him. "What're you doing down here all by yourself?" She asked innocently.

Aiden recognized the voice of Ella emanating from behind him, and he turned around to see the girl approaching him. He thought he picked up on something different about her, but he figured he was just imagining it. "Hey, Ella." He pointed his thumb to the hourglasses behind him. "Just checking out how Gryffindor is doing.." Not so good.

"Oh right." Ella said, glancing at the red hourglass. "Not doing very well are you?" Hehe. Slytherin practically had twice as much as Gryffindor. Ella glanced around the room for a moment. "I wonder where Trixie is. I was supposed to be meeting her." She said with a thoughtful expression. Maybe she had forgotton the route to the hourglasses and was wandering around the Astronomy Tower.

Trixie appeared from behind the Slytherin Hourglass where hse was hidden out of view with a very loud "BOO!!" and an evil laugh. "Err....Heya. I just wanted to make an entrance" she smiled sweetly and then winked over at Ella. Now was just the right time to insert and evil laugh but well that would just look conspicuous wouldn't it? She looked over at the Slytherin hourglass. "And 49 of those beauties are thanks to me" she grinned.

Ella jumped a mile after Trixie pounced out from behind the Slytherin hourglass. "Ugh, you idiot." She said, trying to compose herself after the small fright. "Oh yeah? Well..well 11 belong to ME!" She said. But daym, that wasn't as impacting as 49.. Ahem. "So Trixie, do you happen to have a pen on you? A marker pen or something." She tried to hide her grins.

Just as Ella began saying how she was expecting Trixie, lo and behold, the girl herself popped out from behind the hourglasses. "Whoa.. how did you even get back there, Trixie?" He lifted an eyebrow and examined the hourglasses for a moment. Pfft. Of course they would rub in the points; but, he'd be doing the same if it were his house. "Yeah, yeah, yeah. And fifteen of those belong to me!" Heh. Ella's and his combined didn't even measure up to Trixie's amount. Oh well. It was just a trophy.

"What's the marker for?" He glanced to Ella, then to Trixie.

Trixie laughed at Ella's reaction and then turned to Aiden. "Well I'm small. I dunno, I just did" she laughed a little. "Well at least you both are make some contribution" she smirked triumphantly. Ha! She had more then both of them. Ah well that just made her a swot but at least she was a loyal swot!!

She now turned to Ella. "Why yes Ella. I do believe that I have a PERMANENT marker on me at this very moment" she smiled at Aiden innocently. Oh they were such Slytherins.

Grr at Trixie's smugness. Hopefully she would earn some more points in the Care of Magical Creatures assignment. With her little baby Elvis!! N'aww.

"Oh. Excellent." Ella said simply. She looked at Trixie for a moment, then to Aiden, then back to Trixie. "Okay now!" She yelped, then tackled Aiden onto the ground and held him there firmly. Hehehehe.

Oh, Trixie was so proud of those points. "Swot," Aiden said to her. But at least she congratulated them on getting a few for themselves. Pfft. Fourty-nine!

His eyebrows pushed together as Trixie pulled out a permanent marker, and he watched the Slytherin girls exchange glances. Oh. No..! Just as it dawned on him what they were about to do, they already seemed to have caught him off his guard. And he fell to the floor with a thud. He did his best to push them away, but they just kept squirming around his grasp! "Hey!! What is this?!" He needed to steal their marker.

Listening to Drew talk about his brother, and their relation, Annie just shivered at the thought of fighting with her sister. She'd have to share a lot of the things that used to be only hers, and from then on, they were going to be theirs. It felt so exciting, though. "With Matt gone too...and I presume you are planning to do it as well, your mom must be having a withdrawl of love-giving at the moment..." It is so odd, when you see the ones you've raised all your life leaving their homes.

"And if I do, you know I'll beg for forgiveness..." Because Annie would never, ever hurt Drew.

Trixie smirked triumphantly. "This is called Revenge!!" she told him pulling the lid off of the marker. It wasn't really permanent. It would rub off with a few washes. Or some of her Phoenix's tears. Ahh how she loved Topaz. Way better then Ella's elvis. "Now what style would you like sir?" she asked kneeling down besides Aiden. "Blimey Ella your strong" she laughed. "Anyone got rope?" she called out laughing.

"Yeahhh! Revenge!!" Ella copied Trixie's small comment.

Aaagh, Aiden was really trying to break free. Ella had to use ALL her power to keep the guy down. "Yes I am strong but I'm not sure how long I can keep him down so hurry up please." She really didn't want Aiden to escape.

"Huh uh, no way!" Aiden yelled, and right when Trixie moved to the side, he used the opportunity to push Ella off. He rolled over and stumbled to his feet. Gahhh.. why did the doors have to be all the way on the other side? He backed up and padded down his pockets. Ugh. What a day to not have his wand.
