Shoving the spoonful of chocolate pudding in her mouth, Destiny slowly raised an eyebrow at Evelyn who was only taking little bites of the brownie. She wanted to tell her just to shove the whole thing in her mouth and eat it, but just seeing her friend eat the chocolate was good enough. She did wish she had a camera, though. To relive this moment over and over because she didn't think it would last long.

Going back to spooning the pudding in her mouth, Evelyn's teary eyes did not go unnoticed and Destiny KNEW why she was tearing up. Evelyn had just realized that she DID love chocolate! A very good reason to cry, in Destiny's opinion of course.

So knowing the reason for the tears, there was no reason to question them.

Besides. There were much more important things to do. Like get that chocolate milk. Snapping her fingers at the house elf, which she found much easier to do than picking them up by their potato sack and shaking them, but also less fun, she waited for the drinks to appear and HUZZAH! There they were.

Right next to that ice cream.

Pushing the pudding away, she glanced at Evelyn while pointing at the ice cream. "Wanna make a sundae? With chocolate syrup?"

Say yes, please!

"Auror?" he inquired. "You mean like fighting Dark wizards and stuff? I think I have a few cousins who do that. From the way they decribe it, it sounds like a pretty exciting job."

"I'm not silly, I'm just exceptionally awkward." Sebastian said with a laugh. Emma, hmm, he felt like he heard that name before or have seen her before with somebody in the corridors. Who was it? "And nice to meet you, Emma. I'm in my 6th Year, you?" He replied back. Okay, now who did he see this girl with? It wasn't Sophie, no, because she hangs out with Evan all the time or himself of course. Hehh. Not Bonnie....oh yeah! SHORT PERSON!

"Well then, you seem like a 'someone'. May I have some food?" Seb chuckled. Yes, he was funny. Like [Laugh-Out-Loud] funny....no not really. "Anyways, this might come off a bit strange, but are you friends with a Selena?" He asked, tilting his head a bit. Was that her name again? He had trouble remembering, seeming as he called her short person all the time.

Ugh, brownies. So chocolate-y. How much had she eaten so far. She lost count. Heck, she wasn't even counting in the first place!

Finishing off the brownie, she sighed in relief as the chocolate milk appeared. Taking one of the glasses, she took a sip to test it out before downing about half the glass. That hit the spot. Setting down the glass, she was starting to feel a bit full now, and a little queasy if she were to admit it. This was more dessert and treats she was eating in one sitting then what she ate in half a year.

A sundae with chocolate syrup?

Just the thought had her stomach churning rather uncomfortably. "No." she muttered, shaking her head as she pushed away the chocolate milk....and everything else that surrounded her so she was able to place her arms on the table and lay her head upon them. Tired, emotionally and physically, and feeling sick and heart broken was not a good combination.

"Destiny?" she asked...staring at her friend with big hazel, tear filled, eyes.

While she waited for Evelyn to finish eating that brownie, the brownie that she should have just shoved in her mouth all at once, Destiny made small grabby hands towards the ice cream. A sundae sounded so good at the moment. With bananas, walnuts, chocolate syrup and can't forget the SPRINKLES!

She could have ran around in a circle, she was so excited and on such a chocolate rush, but her friend's 'No' had her arms dropping to her sides in a defeated manner. No..sundae?

But..

There was STILL food left on the counter! Didn't Evelyn know it was not nice to waste food? Especially chocolate. Her mouth had opened to tell her friend just that when those teary eyes were back and they were looking right at her. Oh no.

"OH NO!" she exclaimed, jumping from the stool and knocking it over before pointing to the nearest house elf while frantically snapping her fingers.

THEY NEEDED A BUCKET! EVELYN WAS GOING TO BE SICK!

What....was going on? Lifting her head off her arms rather lazily, Evelyn frowned as she watched her friend snap her fingers at a house elf. If this was any other day, she would have laughed at the ridiculously funny sight, yet...she was not in the mood to laugh like that. A small smile was all the situation was going to get.

Squeezing her eyes shut and rubbing the tears from her eyes, she shook her head before letting out a great sigh. "Destiny...what..." Eh. Nevermind.

Her gaze landed on the chocolate sweets, but she could only feel queasiness from looking at them. Ugh. Wavering over the house elf she had befriended a few terms back, Binky...Bibby...whatever his name was, she waved to the food and let him take care of it. If Destiny wanted something, she'd have to grab it fast.

"Destiny." Let's try this again! Fiddling with her hands in her lap, she bit the end of her lip for a moment before sniffling and glancing back up to her amazingly crazy friend. "What do you think of...Josh?"

Was the house elf blind or was it just stupid? Destiny glaaaared at the thing as it simply shrugged it's shoulders at her, like it had no idea what she was snapping for. Why was it that it understood when she needed glasses of chocolate milk, but it didn't understand when she needed a bucket?

And the bucket was so much more important than the chocolate milk. But, Destiny didn't care that the house elf wasn't getting the bucket. It wasn't like she was going to have to clean up Evelyn spew.

Snapping her fingers once more and giving her foot a little stomp in frustration, she calmed down a bit as the house elf turned and she had really thought it was going to get a bucket. But of course it wouldn't. Ripping the banana out of it's hand as it held it out for her, she raised her arm to throw it at it's face when she heard Evelyn. Turning her head slightly, Destiny lowered her banana throwing hand and..

..why was Evelyn sniffling!?

Being sick wasn't that bad! And she would have told her that if she wasn't so caught off guard with the question about Josh. She didn't even see the chocolate disappear!

What did she think about him?

Uhhhh..

"Well, he gave me chocolate once. I guess he is okay.." she gave a little shrug and slid the banana over to her friend. "Why?"

Exceptionally awkward? Awww, poor guy. Emma giggled. "Psh... I don't think so, you seem pretty okay to me." She grinned at him. "Nice to meet you as well! Wow, sixth year? Fun, I'm a third." She twirled a piece of blonde hair, which was a bad habit of hers.

She laughed again. The blonde nodded and flicked her wand, which transported over trays of desserts that she had made. "Of course. I have a variety. There's chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles, and gingerbread cookies. Also there's a vanilla cake with raspberry jam in the middle. So what would you like?" she asked, with a huge grin on her face. Note to self: Save some for Sel or she'd kill her. WAIT! He knew Sel!? It was a small world indeed. She shrugged. Wasn't really a strange question, Emma had been asked loads in her first year about herself being a Malfoy. "Selena Zabini-Riddle? The hyper one? My Sel? YES! She's my BEST friend! How do you know her?" she chirped excitedly.

Fee nodded,"Yes like fighting dark wizards."She had read a lot about it and from what she knew about it,the blonde was sure it was the perfect job for her."But first tere is a lot of school to do."And that was good like itbecause she loved Hogwarts.,

"Yeah, there's always more school to do," he said. "But it's worth it. And it's fun in places, too."

Hehe...

Evelyn couldn't help but smile and chuckle quietly as she witnessed the randomness of the banana being handed to her friend from the house elf. What was Destiny really wanting anyways? Perhaps she wanted all the food back.

It didn't take long for her chuckles to subside as her friend answered her question. Chocolate? Of course, that was pretty much the one thing that someone could give to Destiny to secure a rather good friendship. Maybe Josh was just being nice to her? Or maybe...he just wanted to get on her good side so she wouldn't suspect anything that could or may have been going on.

She needed to ask Marie about that too, what she thought of him.

Running her thumb under her eyes to wipe away the unshed tears, she smiled slightly before frowning, not being able to decide if she was amused or thoroughly depressed as of yet. "Yea, I suppose." she agreed quietly. He was okay. Just messed up in the mind.

Taking a deep breath, Evelyn turned her gaze back to the blue eyed girl, shrugging her shoulders some. She wasn't all that ready to say anything about what happened in the room of requirement. It was still all too fresh in her mind. "I don't know. I was just wondering..."

And now she was beginning to wonder how far the nearest bathroom was.

Destiny could have honestly shoved that banana up the house elf's nose. It was like it knew that she did not want it, but it gave it to her anyway. That's why she was so glad she didn't have any magical creatures at home. They were stupid. Not that sheep were the smartest thing, but compared to house elves, they were genius'!

Picking up the stool that fell when she jumped up, she sat down, still sliding the banana over to Evelyn. At least her friend wasn't sick and if she was, the banana would help her. Destiny would know, her parents are Healer's.

An eyebrow raised at Evelyn and the eye wiping and the fact that she had agreed that Josh was okay. She was dating the boy, he should be more than okay to her. Although the thought of Evelyn thinking Josh was more than okay was absolutely horrifying and utterly disgusting. But, that was only Destiny's opinion.

"Umm." GAH! She was horrible at these types of things. Really!? Where was Marie when you needed her? "Did something happen?"

Sebastian shrugged then laughed. "Yes, yes I am." He raised his eyebrows a few times, then shook his head. He was a weirdo, but a gorgeous weirdo of course.



Seb watched as Emma levitated a tray full of cookies and he could feel his jaw wanting to drop. He wanted to run over to the tray, attack it and eat like a wild beast. However, he remained his posture and took two snickerdoodles. Sure, some people, 'polite' people, would only take one, but he was a sixteen-year-old boy. People shouldn't be judging him.

"Thanks." He said with a short nod, biting onto a small piece of the cookie, then swallowing it. Before he even knew what was going on Emma seemed to attack him with questions and he stepped back, a bit suprised as to what was going on.

WAIT A SECOND.

"Your best friend?" Sebastian asked, his jaw dropped like he was hurt. "Selena is my best friend! She's my little munchkin ShortPerson. You better back up off!" He said, in a loud, monstrous tone. Before he could say anymore he doubled onto the ground, laughing. After a couple of seconds of laughing, he stood back up, clutching onto one of the tables to not fall over.

"You should have seen your face!" He said, laughing a bit more, then regaining his state. "Sorry about that, but yes, I know her. I just thought I saw you two around." He nodded, with a slight smile.

"Yeah that's true I guess." Elliot chuckled. Even though sometime the could acted like cat and dog. "Yeah. but I do hope later." he laughed. He was still enjoying his status as a single guy now days so he prefer that he find this girl later on maybe like in his third or fourth year. "Speaking of special someone how about you and this guy of yours.?" he asked. "What was his name again?Hugo, right?"

"Oh please not the cute word anymore." He groaned. "You know I could get cute word phobic after this." he joked. Cute word phobic? Where the hell that coming from?

FOOD. FOOD. FOOD. FOOD. FOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!

It was EVERYWHERE and it was one out the two of Chandler's guilty pleasures. Being so close to this amount of food made it impossible not to eat it all so he grabbed a large sized bun and placed it in his mouth in one food. "Zis iz zo good!" he exclaimed with a flail and got another of the delightful buns to put in his mouth fully again. It would help if someone could get him away from the food before he ate everything in sight. D:

Alex sneaked, yes he sneaked off to the kitchen watching his surrounding careful not to get caught. He just needed a little food before next class, just a little something to nibble on. A professor had already scolded him once about the tent he had tried to set up in the kitchen, he needed to be smooth about all the visits there.

When he entered the kitchen he laid eyes on a flailing boy, who was eating everything in sight. His food. His food! Alex ran the few steps forward and flailed his arms to prove how paniced he was that his food was slowly disappearing from the table.

"Hey you that's my food you're eating!" he flailed with his eyes tightly shut. When he stopped flailing he opened them only to see his twin! Suddenly he perked up. "Chandler!" he said before stealing a bun out of Chandler's hand. His bun. His own, his precious.

Marie was on a mission. A mission to bake a cake... a birthday cake to be exact. Today was Matty's birthday and she had heard that he liked chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting with strawberries in the middle. Of course he denied it when she asked him about it but that wasn't going to stop her from making him one. He would learn to love it if it really wasn't his favorite.

She had a few hours before she was going to meet Matty. Hopefully she had enough time to make this cake... without messing it up. Maybe she should find some of the house elves to help her.

Right after she found the strawberries and tasted them. Gotta make sure they are good enough to put in the cake.

Destiny was hungry. Why else would she be in the kitchen? Sure, she could have went to the Great Hall, but there were other people there. People that could easily steal her potatoes and when it came to potatoes, Destiny did not like to share.

But, if she went to the Great Hall, she could possibly run into a certain someone..too bad she was already tickling the pear and walking into the kitchen. Oh well. There was always tomorrow.

Closing the portrait behind her, she was just about to pick up a house elf and shake it by it's potato sack and DEMAND potatoes, when a familiar blonde person was inside with her. Long time no see, indeed!

"MARIE!" she yelled, making her way over to an empty counter and hopping up to sit. "I found a hair in my potatoes once. I now know why."

It was obviously Marie's because she was a house elf.

Marie was digging through one of the ginormous refrigerators looking for the strawberries but was having no luck so far. There had better be strawberries here or else she would be hunting down those dang elves and make them find her some. Pushing aside the other fruits... like kiwi, watermelon, blueberries, grapes, pineapple... pretty much every fruit BUT strawberries she could feel some house elf torture coming on...

Until she heard someone scream her name.

"WHAT!? I was only looking for strawberries." She yelled back as she spun around letting the refrigerator door slam shut.

Oh... It was only Destiny.

Huh? A hair in her potatoes? She was almost afraid to ask... but she did. "And why did you find a hair there?" Most likely it was one Destiny had put there herself to keep anyone from eating them, then forgot that she had put it there.

Yeah, she had a very strange friend.

As Marie slammed the refrigerator door and YELLED back at her, Destiny had to grip the sides of the counter to catch her balance and stay atop of it. Merlin! There really was no need to yell and she could care less that her friend was looking for strawberries. They were gross and they were even grosser when people dipped them in chocolate.

They ruined the chocolate that way!

Balance caught, she started swinging her legs back and forth, glancing around the kitchens "looking" for the strawberries. She wasn't really looking, but if she found them, she would sneakily go over and hide them. Her looking stopped, though, once Marie started asking questions about the potatoes. Like she didn't know!

"Well, you are a house elf, so it had to be your hair in my potatoes. Because house elves don't have hair." Like that old one over there.. "Why you looking for strawberries anyway? They are gross."

"Food, Glorious food!
We're anxious to try it
Three banquets a day--
Our favourite diet!"

Mia sang at the top of her voice as she entered the kitchen with a little twirl. And she was just about to grab one of the elves and pull them into a dance when she spotted Marie frantically going through the refrigerator and Destiny talking about hair and strawberries.

She bowed to the nearest elf and then moved over to her friends and hoisted herself up onto a stool.

"Whatcha doooooooing??"

Ivan walked into the kitchen feeling starved. It seemed he was always hungry lately. Stopping as he walked in and spotted Mia, Marie...and a girl he didn't know. Putting on his ever charming smile he walked over and claimed a spot beside Mia, "Why hello there ladies. Feeling a bit famished are we?" Speaking of...what did he want to eat?

"Hello yourself, Mr Vorpatil." Mia flashed him a bright smile as she swung her legs back and forth, her toes just catching the floor. Merlin! She must have grown even more in the past few months.

Looking around at her friends and then back to Ivan, Mia shrugged her shoulders. "I'm not quite sure what those two are up to but I did come in for a snack. And maybe even a little dance with the elves."

Hehe...

Because she had always wanted to do that.

For the love of Merlin.

Marie knew Destiny was an odd duck but seriously, WHY would she think Marie was a house elf?

Did she LOOK like one of those little creatures?

NO!

Did she DRESS like one of those little creatures?

NO!

Did she ACT like one of those little creatures (always cleaning and cooking)?

NO!

Well okay, so she was here to bake a cake but still, that didn't make her a house elf. That made her someone who was going to bake a cake for a friend for their birthday. "Really Destiny, where do you come up with these ideas of yours? I'm NOT a house elf. Never have been, never will be."

"Hey there Mia, I was just telling Destiny... She started but was cut off when Ivan showed up. "Hello Ivan, I was looking for some strawberries, I want to make a cake for a friend for his birthday. You guys all gonna help me bake?" If everyone helped.... and knew what they were doing then she could get this cake made in no time at all.

Ivan smiled widely at Mia and reaching one arm around her shoulders gave her a somewhat awkward hug with how he was sitting. "Only you would actually try and dance with the elves," he said with a laugh as he looked at them.

It wasn't that he disliked house elves or thought of them only for work but he never would have thought to dance with them. "I did too. I need to keep a supply in my trunk or something. Seems I'm almost always hungry." Looking over at the other two girls he smiled and then got the attention of a house elf.

"I'd like a plate of nachos with extra jalapenos." Simple and filling though probably too greasy and spicy for most.

Ivan turned to Mia as she spoke and he smiled. Ah so the other girl was Destiny. He'd heard that name before he was sure. "Strawberries? On a cake? Why not an Oreo cake or something. That's my favourite," he said with a smirk as he teased her. "Who's birthday is it anyway?" he asked as the elf brought his plate of greasy goodness.

Turning to look at the Destiny person he wasn't sure he'd met yet he smiled and held out his hand. "Hi I'm Ivan." As she probably heard both of them say.
