Nose scrunching up, she brushed it against his again while slowly shaking her head. "Not unless you bring it up I don't." Rarely did she think about her affect on him, always how he affected her.

"Hn. I guess...I'll have to tell you every day, how you mean the world to me." He let his eyes drift closed. "How you steal my breath away every time we're together. How there is nothing more beautiful than seeing you smile, hearing you laugh. How you are the most beautiful girl I know, and how undeserving I am to have you. But how grateful I am, that you have chosen me."

There wasn't really anything she could say in response. She could blush and get terribly flustered, and grin wildly, even suppress a few giggles. But there was no verbal response to what he'd just said to her. At least none came to her at the moment. So she responded the only way she could. She kissed him softly, kissed him til words finally did come to her. "You... really are too good to me." She rested her forehead against his. "I don't think I deserve you, or your kindness. I could go on about how wonderful you are, but we'd be here all day and most likely miss the party."

And there was that kiss, embodying everything he had just said, stealing his thoughts away. When they parted, his smile widened and he rubbed his nose against hers again. "I can't say I would mind that."

All the heated words they had shared before, all the anger she felt towards him was gone, it was as if the anger had never been present. Giggling softly, she rocked her forehead against his. "I would love to spend the day with just you," But she wanted to go to this party, and she wanted him with her. "Maybe after... just me and you for a walk on the grounds?"

"That sounds, absolutely lovely." For the first time since he had found out about the party, he didn't consider what could go wrong, that they might not make it to their walk afterwards. They would. And it was something he held no doubt about.

A grin split across her face, and if possible, she was more excited about their walk than she was the about the party for the new ministry man. Rubbing her nose against his, she pulled him closer for another hug, resting her head on his shoulder. "Do you wanna finish your breakfast?"

Once again his arms were wrapping around her, holding her close. Arya hugs; the best thing in the world. "I think...I'm good. You?"

"I'm good," much better now that they were both okay. She didn't move from their hug, not ready to separate from his warm embrace. "Will you walk me back to my common room?"

Alicia giggled. "So did I! I thought the guys who have invented the airplane was so cool, until I found a broomstick. It's magic." She had always had this thought that magicians seemed to be the most powerful people on earth and she had always wanted to be one before she came to Hogwarts. And she was surprised to death when she received a letter from Hogwarts for the first time a few months back. Alicia was actually a witch. Wow. "Let's learn together! Since we're both beginner, we won't be able to laugh at each other if we make silly movements with the broomsticks." She said excitedly. "Hold on.. I guess we'll definitely laugh at each other, laugh at our foolishness." She laughed, trying to imagine herself on a broomstick. It would be very fun. "And yeah, I don't mind helping you out." She winked at Nika, giggling again as the truth was she herself hadn't been to any flying classes since the term started.

"Of course I will." Closing his eyes, he breathed in slowly, releasing the tension and the fear created from what had transpired between them. He knew it would take an impossible amount to separate them, but all the same, it was a relief that they were okay; that they had worked things out.

She was pretty sure they were both going to fall asleep if they stayed here much longer. Even with that knowledge, she didn't find herself moving til after a few minutes of silence had passed between them. After one last hug, she pulled back, slowly disentangling herself from him.

It wasn't that he wanted to part from her, but there wasn't much choice. They had to get ready if they were to make it to the party and a good deal of time had already passed. So when she drew back, he didn't have much choice but to follow, slowly pushing himself off the bench and offering her a hand up. The sooner evening came, the better. Then, he could put all the worry behind him and focus on more hopeful things.

With a smile she took his proffered hand, and used it to help herself up, wrapping it around herself whens she was up, her own arms going around him as well. Not really ready to get dressed for the party, but knowing that they had to, they started off for her dormitory.

"Yeah okay! We should go down to the quidditch field when it's open to students and practice." Nika said nodding her head. "Just promise you won't make me look too bad?" Nika giggled. "Be prepared to laugh a lot. Because I'm going to be looking EXTREMELY foolish." Nika smiled knowing that learning would be all apart of the fun.

Fee ju1st chuckled at the firstie friend.Seemed like they always met up at the great hall.Well it was a good place if you wanted to find aour friends from other houses. Someone always seemed to be there."Yeeep i guess the great hall is our place",she winked. Alicia had been at the library all the time? Too bad Fee studied at the coomon room and just took the books from the library."Good that i know were to search you now",the blonde wiggled her eyebrows.Ohhh best friend and Allie ganging up on her? Tsk,tsk.Hehe."Ahhh come one guys i am a good Slytherin",she laughed.



Ohhhh Mr.Trigwell all grown up? Hehe that sounded totally weird."I dont know why but something sounds wrong to my ears here",she laughed.Maybe because the imagination of her bestie growing up scared her?!Ohhh he enjoyed bowing in front of her? Awwiie cutie Rex."you know if someone listens to us they'll thiunk we are freaks",the girl giggled.But teasing eachother was their thing and who cared what others think?Biiig smile.

"So actually it's not open for students now?" It had been a while since Alicia made a visit to the Quidditch field. She simply nodded. "Of course I won't. I promise." She grinned and poked her. "I might embarrass myself though." Alicia laughed and told her experience when she was in Diagon Alley before the term started.

"You know, it's pretty hard to sneak things into this school." She rolled her eyes, looked around to make sure no one else eavesdropped to their conversation. "I tried to buy a broomstick once. It's such a really cool broomstick! Fire... Umm.. Firebolt. Yeah. That broom. It's antique!" She squeaked.

"I told the shop keeper that I'd love to have one. She asked my age, and I lied, telling her that I'm a second year. Unfortunately she knew my age. How on earth was that possible?!" She gestured her hands and laughed as she ended this random story of hers.


Alicia was so excited to see Fee again at the Great Hall. She wondered where this glitter girl had been. She asked Rex earlier and he told Allie that this blonde girl was doing her homework, which was really surprising for Allie.

She wanted to scream to welcome Fee. But she cancelled her plan to do so. Instead, she pouted. "I thought you had forgotten me, Fee!" Crossed her arms over her chest before she began to talk again.

"Shoo Shoo.. Go back to your table, Fee. I don't want to talk to you right now." She said coldly.

Allie almost laughed when Fee said she was a good Slytherin. She WAS indeed a good Slytherin. Fee could make her laugh the whole time. But this time, she held her laugh and looked as cold as she could.

Apparently there was no more fight between Slytherin and the other houses now. Every Slytherin she met at Hogwarts were all friendly and funny. They were also incredibly nice to firsties. And who knew that Allie would end up being able to tease them, instead of getting bullied by them.

"Oh actually I think it is open to all students right now. I just meant that we should go when the teams don't have practices or matches." Nika shrugged. Did that make sense? Nika smiled as Ally told her funny story. "Wow. That is weird how she knew you were a first year..." Nika didn't think it was that easy to tell the difference between first years and second years. Maybe it was just the fact that firsties are all ways oblivious to everything that goes on around hogwarts. "I think I want to buy a broom before next term. So I can get some extra practice. I mean there is nothing wrong with school brooms or anything, but I wanna have one that I could call my own." Nika explained to her friend. "So other than flying do you do any other sports?"

" What sounds wrong to you? Rex asked Fee laughing." Good freaks, nice freaks" Rex said to Fee." So wgere is Hugo?" Rex asked Fee.

"EXACTLY!" She agreed. "The problem is first year students are not allowed to bring our own broomsticks to school!" She pouted. "I tried the school broom once, it sucks actually." Alicia laughed as she remembered of her falling down; 5 feet away from the ground. It was the first reason why she had never stepped on the Quidditch Pitch anymore since then.

"I love swimming! I'm planning to go to swim at the lake next week, only if the ice has completely melted. Do you wanna come with me?"

"YEAH! I would love to go swimming! As long as it's not too cold." Nika got very excited. She hasn't gone swimming since the summer.

Witsy thought she'd never make it to the dining hall. just reaching the tables she dropped her books with a sigh of relief. I wish I could have some peach cobbler, she thought, that would totally make my evening.

She realized a fellow Gryffindor was besides where she was standing. "Oh hey... Nika, right? Sorry, it's been forever." She re organized her things into one pile rather than what the edge of her bed looks like, "How have you been?"

Nika saw Witsy walking into the great hall and thought about how long it had been since they saw each other last. She patted on the seat beside her. "Yeah, it's Nika! And your Witsy! I could never forget that name, even if I tried!" Nika smiled at her friend while she reached over and put some more pudding on her plate. "So what have you been up to lately? I haven't talked to you in a really long time."

It was so wonderful to be around familiar people. Nika had this warmness about her that when you're in her presence it's simply amazing. Now that she remembered her name she felt like a complete idiot. Trying to drop the thought she answer her question instead sitting next to her as she gestured.

Yes pudding! she thought. "Thanks, I love pudding!" She took a bite of it before answering her next question. It's like heaven just came down and is now entering her digestive system. "Not much. I made reserves for the quidditch team, I'm really happy for that. I've been slacking a little in my classes but I did finish a homework assignment, though." she smiled. "How about you? Anything new?"
