Rafe's trick had been neat. It was similar to the Great Hall...only ten times better. It was just the two of them, which Marilyn loved to pieces.

She took in his choice of foods with wide eyes. He'd certainly chosen mostly meats...but she cared little about this. All that really mattered to her was being there, sharing time and his company. It was true that she personally wasn't too big on most of these particular foods...BUT Rafe had included sushi. Oh, her love for sushi ran deep...The blonde immediately grabbed it up, smiling widely.

"Sushi, honey? How ever did you know?" She laughed and began eating quietly. She listened intently to him talk about his situation with his father. Marilyn knew it meant a lot to her boyfriend to be there in Romania, sharing family secrets and what he was. It was strange for Rafe, she knew, to be so alone here in the castle. And there were those times when he'd just disappear all together...because of the moon. Marilyn wished deeply he wouldn't stay away. She could handle it...but she knew if she voiced this to Rafe, he'd flip.

"For once, I'm glad to be a pureblood, then. You have no idea how much it meant to me for your father to accept me so easily." Smiling, she continued to listen. Being a werewolf was a great deal of what Rafe was and she was completely fine with that...but she was selfishly glad his father didn't completely turn him. Marilyn couldn't explain why...but she was glad all the same. "I'm going to say something...and please don't be mad...but I'm glad he didn't change you completely..." When she said this, her eyes intently searched her own lap.

"I think you might have mentioned you like sushi once or twice," Rafe said as he cleared off his first plate except for the salad and then loaded up another one.

Rafe wasn't all too surprised that Marilyn was glad he didn't change. "Well, of all the reasons why I wouldn't it was because of you, but at the time we weren't together," Rafe smiled. "If anything could have happened to you if I had changed, I know I would never be able to forgive myself." Rafe brushed his hair out of his face and looked lovingly into her eyes. "I suppose being a werewolf wouldn't help much with my professional Quidditch pursuit in the future either," he laughed trying to make lighter of the situation.

"What about your mum and brother? How would they feel about a longer get away in a castle full of werewolves," he said in a light low tone. "I wouldn't want to do anything to upset your family."

"Well my long lost sister" Rex laughed. "So what you been up to sis?" Rex asked Emma.

"Well my cousin is a Black, too" Rex told Adelyn. " His name is Excelscior black who left school and started a successfull business in the Potato Chip world" Rex explained to Adelyn. " Those Blacks are pure-bloods" Rex said to Adelyn."Sing for us" Rex pleaded with Adelyn.

" I knew you would remember the date" Rex told Kay. " You are really good to me" Rex said to Kay. " Talking about boys behind my back, huh' Rex looked angry at Kay but he was doing it in a teasing way." I like the date July 28" Rex smiled at Kay. Rex hopes that Kay might get the hint about the date.

Kay said hello to Emma, and then heard Rex say that Adelyn could sing. "Please sing for us. I would really like to hear you." She said looking around Rex to look at her. Hugging Rex she thought he looked a little mad about the boy thing. "Well, you know that there is only one boy I talk about. But Adelyn might have someone we could talk about to." She said kissing Rex's cheek. "Oh, and the date. Could I have that for...the wedding." Kay said whispering the wedding part for only Rex to hear. "Please?"

Marie smiled as Justin admitted what he did was wrong. "You know, I think I could maybe like this new and improved Justin... that is as long as he doesn't go back to his old nasty ways." she said smiling at him. "When you say you're going to tell Violet everything, does that mean you're going to just tell her you're breaking up with her... or are you going to tell her you were kissing Olivia and she is the reason you're breaking up with her?" Yes, Marie had seen them kissing in the Common Room. She may have been pre-occupied with Evan but she still seen what they were doing. "What? You think I will enjoy watching Violet's heart get crushed like that? Now that wouldn't be very nice of me to enjoy something like that would it?" she asked with a evil little grin crossing her face. Ok, she would enjoy it, maybe a bit too much, but Violet deserved whatever was about to happen to her and Marie wanted to be there to watch. Who knows, maybe she would get a chance to punch the girl in the nose again. Now that would really make her day.

Justin smirked. He could tell Marie would enjoy it, a lot. "Yes I will tell here [everything even if she does take it totally in the wrong way. Personally I think she needs to grow up anyway before she gets in a serious relationship but thats just me and I have a lot of growing up to do too. Violet won't take this very easily but she'll have to move on" he replied. He knew what he was talking about which was a total difference. Since when did Justin James Hendricks know exactly what he was talking about. "Didn't she try and break you and some other guy up last term?" he asked recalling everything Elizabeth had told him about the school and certain students. And what Violet had done.

Emma smiled brightly, "Me? Well I have been meeting a lot of knew people. I tried out for the Quidditch team, to play Seeker, but it's unlikely I'll make it.. There's always next year, if I don't make it my cousin, Dianna, who's a first year, and I are going to start a Quidditch club. Oh yes! I explored the Tree House, and I've been into the library, it's HUGE!! What have you been doing?" asked Emma.


"Hi Kay! Nice to meet you to! How's Hogwarts been going for you?" asked Emma smiling happily to meet another person.

Savannah smiled at the warm welcome. "i tryed out for it but I'm not sure if I'm gonna make it or not." said Savannah. "Do you play Quidditch?"

Savannah kind of giggle at that name. "Savannah, Savannah Black." she said.

" I am just teasing you about the talking about boys" Rex told Kay. " You know the exact date I want for the wedding" Rex whispered back to Kay.
Now we need to hear Adelyn sing" Rex agreed with Kay.

"Well, glad you met a lot of friends lil sis" Rex told Emma. "Well, you could make the Quiditch team, whether you are seeker, beater, chaser or keeper" Rex said to Emma. Sometimes the captain will put you at a different position then the one you really tried out for at the end" Rex explained to Emma.
" If my shoulder heals, I would like to check out yoru Quidditch club" rex smiuled at Emma.

Okay. Evan had totally underestimated Ella if she knew Chelsea Megastore. He literally looked mouth half-open in astonishment until he realised what he was doing. He could only close his mouth though, it would take him a few minutes to process the fact that a witch would have a football from Megastore. And then, that ball would become her lucky ball. He wondered how many games she'd played. Of course it couldn't be more than his experience, but still... It'd be an interesting game to play.

"Okay then." he said with a curious expression. "Let's play with your lucky ball, and taste your first defeat with it." Muhahaha! Lucky ball or not. He had once been touted as a wonderkid, and no superstitious charm would apply on him.

Lily-anne walked out into the grounds carefully eyeing the whomping williow before lying down on the grass she was dressed ina strap top and longish denim shorts it felt great as the UV rays warmed on her skin

Jay walked around the whomping willow looking for someone he WANTED to talk to looking for anyone to talk to, he noticed Lilly-Anne, he walked up to her. "Uh hi, you sunbathing?" he said with a small laugh.

"hey don't laugh it's still warm enough, i'm catching my last chances to get rid of this horrible pale skin what ever i do i never tan" she said with her eyes closed , she laughed slightly opening one eye "wanna sit down"

"Your skins fine as it in and sure, it is quite warm though." he said, taking off his jacket and layed down, "Finally sorted everything out with Amy, and I saw that simon I ended up fighting, and I sorted everything out with him too." he added, with a smile.

Amy walked from the fountain wondering where Simon was, she spotted Jay and-Lily-Anne, uhoh, she murmered as she went to sit down, hopefully out of eyes way, she pulled her headphones out her bag and placed them in her ears and turned on her ipod, music blared in her ears as she lay down, put some sunglasses on and closed her eyes, as she absorbed the sun

"so are you too back together" she asked hopefully taking out a pair of gold dior sunglasses out of her bag and putting them on before perching her self up on her elbows

Jay shook his head, "No, I don't think so. She would be paranoid if we were, I don't want to have that effect on her." he admitted.

"i'm sure you can work things out, and if not completly get back to how you were i'm sure you will find someone else somday" she said with an encoraging smile

"No point, I can't anyway..." he said with a frown turning his head away from Lilly-Anne, NICO!

Maddie strolled out into te grounds with her chestnut ringlets bouncing around her shoulders. She sat under the Whomping Willow, careful not to stain her new skirt. It was a nice day outside, and she was appreciating the sun as she turned on her iPod.

"I hope what Amy said isn't true... that Nico might leave, otherwise I won't survive the year." he admitted, turning back to Lilly-Anne.

lily-anne looked worried and moved sat up fully "WHAT, NO" she said worriedly

"Sorry I brought it up, but she told me at the front gate that Nico might be leaving," he said with a frown on his face.

"Yeah, I know, but I've never met any of my relatives from the Black family. I might have when I was younger, but I don't remember. I'm sure they couldn't have been too pleased with my father for marrying a muggle." Adelyn explained with a shrug. It never really bothered her that she hadn't met them; sure, she wondered about them, but she figured if they'd wanted to meet her, they'd have made an attempt long ago. "Tell you what, Kay: you listen to me talk about boys, and you give can me advice or whatever it is girls do when they talk about boys...and I'll listen to you talk about Rex, because I'm sure you could do that for ages." She smiled; they really were adorable together. "You want me to sing now? Well, um.. what would you like me to sing?" Adelyn asked. She may be shy, but she'd never deny the chance to sing.

Gold had to grin. "He's kind of persistent," she said. "But I guess he's a sweet guy, underneath the mask. Maybe you could get to know him. If you ever meet him, I mean." To be honest, though, Gold didn't think just any girl could unlock Xylon's heart. Maybe that would need someone special.

Aww. "Guys like that can be total jerks," Gold said, shaking her head a bit. "But I guess you need to know how to play the cards, right - I would ignore him, if I were you. Self-centred guys can't handle that. Then they work to get the attention, you aren't giving them anymore." Hehe, relationship advice. But Gold was having fun with Vanessa.

"Goldie and Vanilla it is, then!"
