"Are you hungry?! I HAVE COOKIES!" Because Kurumi always had cookies and Vivi saying that she had a rumbly tumbly clearly meant that that was all in her tummy which meant she was hungry. LOGIC!

Kurumi leaned a bit more onto Vivi, deciding to randomly start poking the girl in the cheek with her index finger while she was told she had too much name. "BUT...I have less name than all of you Geeeeeeeeeeeeenevieve," she said, poking her finger a bit more firmly into the Ravenclaw's cheek. "I don't have a middle name! Can I has a middle name and then can you tell me I has too much name?"

Karate? Did Vivi want to do karate? Kurumi actually didn't know any of that. She knew kendo but for that you needed a sword. OH! Golf clubs could be used as swords, right? It even said so on the sign!

Oh, wait, was she saying that Kurumi's new name was Karate? "Kurumi and karate aaaaactually have the same about of syllables you know!"

Silly Ravenclaw, you get a few pats on the head for that. Pat pat.

Vivi was always hungry. Always. She made grabby hands at Kurumi in a gesture that obviously (to her) meant that she desired the cookies immensely and that she required them to be produced at once. More or less a literal translation right there.

But like... why was there touching of her face happening? No one touched her face. She didn't even let her mother touch her face, which was sad because sometimes a little girl wanted to be held but also didn't want to be touched. "Middle name. Middle of the name for Kurumbly." She wasn't good at making up middle names, but didn't most girls get something easy like Marie or Lee or Christine anyway? Kurumbly could have a name like that. "Your middle name is Genevieve," she finally decided with great delight.

She spotted the golf clubs a few feet away and wrested Kurumbly's hand away from her face before skipping over to pick up two of the putters. And two of the balls. She took a third ball too when no one was looking and stuck it in her mouth.

HANDS!

Kurumi reached out and laced her fingers together with Vivi's because clearly that meant that Vivi wanted to hold hands with her because she was the Cookie House Elf of Gryffindor Tower. Verbal cues would have been much appreciated at this point in time, but no matter!

Kurumi dropped their hands and began to sort of poke at her own cheeks, inflating them and then poking them repeatedly, while Vivi thought up her middle name. "Krurmbly Genevieve Rasting!" Kurumi chirped, throwing her arms up high into the air with glee at her new name. Okay, now Vivi could take away parts of her name and make it shorter if she wanted.

NOOOOOO! Vivi was going awa--- oh! GOLF CLUBS! So Vivi DID want to sword fight then. JUST like the sign said! "Oh oh oh oh!" Kurumi said, jumping up and down with her own hands out for the putter and golf ball that she promptly snatched up from Vivi. She glanced up at Vivi and saw her cheeks were puffed up and her mouth was enclosed around something. "OOOOH!" It all made sense now. These were really giant things of bubblegum! Kurumi popped her own golf ball into her mouth and tried to chomp down...but she ended up sort of just drooling all over herself because her mouth was a little too small to hold the golf ball.

Well, why... why was this happening? Vivi wanted cookies, and ended up holding hands with Kurumbly. Who... had just said three names that were NOT HERS to have. Three other people names. Kurumbly was the name of a giant cookie monster, obvs. Rasting. Dunno who that was. GENEVIEVE WAS HER. WAS SHE. SHE WAS HER.

"That is a pretty name," she mumbled around the golf ball, but it sounded more like "Aaa aaa a aaa aaaaaaa." Her mouth hurt too, which indicated that putting a golf ball in one's mouth was an incredibly stupid idea and should not be done unless one was a professional golf ball swallower. She spit out the ball and tucked it down the front of her shirt instead.

"You're married to me now, Kurumbly. We have the same name."

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

Kurumi leaned over and sort of just stared at Vivi's mouth and the golf ball sticking out of it while continuing to try and chew on her own - drooling all over the place and simply wiping it away with the sleeve of her robes. Hehehe. She was like a doggie!

But then Vivi spit out her golf ball, so Kurumi figured she might as well do that too. So, out it went and her's went FURTHER than Vivi's did. "I WIIIIIN!" she cheered, holding up her index and middle finger to make a V shape as she posed triumphantly.

"I am?" Kurumi asked, cocking her head to the side. Was that what Vivi meant by 'take care of her' earlier? "I figured I would marry someone else...," she said, eyeing the golf balls behind Vivi and wondering if the girl wanted a spitting rematch or not.

Kurumi's head was sort of begging to feel...funny. Not that it wasn't already sort of funny but this was a funny sort of funny. The sort of funny you feel when a constant buzzing noise stops but your mind is still making the noise and it starts to grow quiet...

"I feel funny."

Ella smiled, nodding thoughtfully. "Maybe we could...make her a sundae or something." Grin. "As a kind of thank-you or whatever. She does like ice cream, doesn't she?" Psh! Silly question! Who didn't like ice cream? "Do you think if I hadn't erm...blurted out how I felt in the ice cream shop that we'd have gotten together?" The fourteen year old wondered about that sometimes, mostly while she was trying to sleep. She kind of hoped it would have happened no matter what. People who were meant to be together always found a way, yeah? Or at least that's how it worked in the fairy tales.

Ella watched Harvey curiously, wondering what was going on in his head. She smiled as he said he loved kissing. The blonde turned a bit pink and nodded her head, looking sheepish. "I...really do too."

"Okay...I guess that's true but you're more of an expert than I am." Ella said, a small smile on her face. She continued to smile at him as he talked about how long he'd been playing the sport. "We could play again during the summer if you wanted to." Because he clearly liked the game and Ells wouldn't mind playing if it made him happy.

So Ella was grinning like mad as Harvey got behind her and helped her prefect her golf swing. She couldn't help it. He was being seriously adorably right now. She did her best to pay attention to what he was saying but it was quite hard, harder than she'd anticipated. "I erm...okay. So um...so kind of like this?" And the blonde brought the club back, swinging at the ball and watching as it rolled. She turned to look over her shoulder and up at the boy, a nervous smile on her face. "Um...how was that?"

Wonwhatdidshesayshewonwhat? Vivi shrugged at the victory dance, especially 'cause she couldn't really figure out what it was that had been won. Maybe Kurumi was a golf ball swallower, only... she hadn't swallowed it.

And lookit Kurumbly, trying to pretend like they weren't married. That was just sad, especially when she'd already taken Vivi's name and things. "You can marry someone else. We'll marry as many people as we want. Oh! We should marry Selina so she doesn't feel lonely." It would break a girl's heart to make Selina feel left out.

Vivi picked up her putter again and waved it at the end of the golf course, but Kurumbly didn't appear to be paying attention. "What kind of funny? Like you think you're hilarious?"

He smiled as she talked about thanking her as well "Yeah we could.. I.. yeah she does.. and candy too" *gasp* "We should all go out for ice-cream topped with candy!! What do you say?" he asked her getting a little excited now. He then looked at her as she asked the harest question he would have to answer that day "We might have yeah.. I mean.. I had to realise some time.. that" he moved in a little closer "I .. like you .. alot! Plus we have people that were determined to get us together as well. So yeah.. I think we would have." she had his heart racing now as she talked about them getting together.. cause that word 'together' always had him smiling.. they were together!! He only hoped that what he had just said was what would have happened.. otherwise he would never have known happiness such as this and knowing that it kinda.. scared him. He caressed her cheek.. "Lets not think about that.. we ARE together now.. no matter how.. and I get to hang out with an amazing girl" he said and with that gave her a hug.. cause if he had to be honest.. her talking about that.. kinda still scared him even if he told her not to think about it.

He grinned even more as she turned pink and said that she did too "Really? now.. well I can help with that.. cause I am always ready for one more" he said to her wondering what was happening to him.. he never said things like that before.. so why was he saying them now? He'd had 4 previous girlfriends and not with any of them did he talk like that, not that he was complaining or anything it was just.. strange!

He smiled and thought about this "Ok.. yeah I guess thats true. But I am sure you will become one too once you play this game more and more" he said to her smiling "Well.. if you want to.. then yeah we can.. I am just happy hanging out with you." cause he hadnt played golf in quite a few months now it was not like he was missing it or anything.. more than anything he would be missing her!.

He made sure that she had her aim right.. cause lets face it thats what he was doing.. but he couldnt help that his heart was beating really fast right now.. with the position they were in.. so he with difficulty managed to explain how to get the ball near the hole.. he then watched her take her swing at the ball.. but he didnt even watch the ball he was too busy looking at her as she hit the ball.. he nodded "It.. was good." he quickly glanced to see where the ball was before looking back at her "A little bit more power.. could have been needed.. but not bad for first time" he said not being able to hold back any longer and kissing her cheek.. and wanting to stay like this forever.. just holding her in his arms.. watching her.

Grin. Ella was happy to hear her fellow badger enjoyed ice cream and candy. She would have had to check and make sure the girl wasn't ill or anything if she didn't! Harvey's excitement over the sundae idea made the small blonde giggle and she nodded, sharing in his excitement. "Yeah! I... Harvs, that's a brilliant idea. She'll love it." Who wouldn't? It was a gift you could eat! Those were the best. The fourteen year old's heart starting beating so fast when he then came closer to her and began to answer her question. Blink. It was almost hard to pay attention to what he was saying with him that close. Focus Ella, focus. Grin. "You...really think so? Erm...that's good." Cause Ella kind of felt that way too. "I... yeah. We don't have to worry about it, I guess." And she smiled up at him, nodding her head. The third year turned a bit pink at his compliment, fiddling with her hands. "I...you're amazing too." And then she was wrapped in a Harvey hug which was her favorite thing ever. She smiled and hugged him back, squeezing him tightly.

"Really." Ella said quietly, shuffling her feet. She couldn't help but grin at what he said next, turning quite pink yet again. "I um...good to know." And the butterflies were back again, threatening to burst right out of her tummy. EEP.

"Maybe." Ella said, shrugging her shoulders. She really didn't care about becoming an expert. All she wanted was to spend time with Harvey. Besides, it was really kind of awesome seeing him in his element. Mhm. She smiled at him when he said he was okay as long as he was spending time with her. JHUGHFKJGFJK Why was he so sweet all the time? It made Ella all loopy and she never knew how to respond. "I um...feel the same." Grin.

Not bad? Ella smiled a little, nodding her head. "Alright, thanks Harvs." She grinned when he kissed her cheek and then turned to face him. "Alright, your turn." And she stepped to the side, grinning at him. Go on, Harvs.

He was glad to see the grin on her face cause it just made him feel all.. happy inside.. more than he was already of course! He heard her giggle as she seemed to love his idea.. "Yeah you think so? That will be good if she will.. kinda need to do something nice for her you know?" he said.. he had felt a little bad about not hanging out as much as he should have, he knew how it felt when a friend didnt hang out with you cause they were too busy being with their boyfriend or girlfriend. He nodded at her question "I do" he smiled and she then agreed with him "Yeah we dont.. no need to worry about anything now" yup they didnt all they needed to do now.. was try and spend as much time together as they could. He chuckled a little as she turned pink at what he said.. man he would never get used to her turning pink at his words "Well of course I am.. cause I am with you" and somehow she brought out all that amazingness and awesomeness and things outta him. He loved the fact that she squeezed him, and he squeezed her back a bit.. Ella hugs were the best! as well as the Ella kisses, and nudges and stuff.

He grinned at her.. as she turned pink, and he was totally loving this of course cause it was just totally awesome her turning pink. He wondered if he could set a world record or something for the amount of times he could make her blush. "Yeah? I am glad it is" he smiled as his heart beat faster than before

Looked like she was trying to set the world record for him grinning cause off he was again grinning like there was no tomorrow "I am glad you do.. and that you arent getting bored of me already" he chuckled cause he wouldnt get bored of hanging out with her all the time but she might get hanging out with him.

He smiled "No worries" he said, she then turned to face him and he thought he was going to get another one when she told him it was his turn and moved to one side. Did she have to move to once side so soon.. just a few more minutes like that.. please? He then reluctantly put his ball down and tried to do what he had taught her but he was distracted from her moving away so soon. So his ball did end up near the hole.. but on the other side.. and a little further away since he had applied too much power to the ball. "Umm oops.. too much power I think" he chuckled a little and looked at Ella.. now where were we?

Marry as many people as they wanted? Well didn't that just sound like the most ridiculous idea ever?! Although it was sort of appealing as well. In this moment at least where everything looked appealing.

Like that bright yellow golf ball over there...which Kurumi skipped over to and promptly stuffed it in her mouth before turning back to Vivi and giving her a BIIIIIG grin. "Selina is my best friend," Kurumi nodded, drooling all over the place again as she attempted to speak. Spending forever with your best friend seemed like a good idea. "And she really really likes you and I really really like you...so it seems like a smart match."

And then the funny feeling was back...and it wasn't like how Vivi was describing it at all. Cautiously, Kurumi spit out the golf ball and looked at it as it rolled across the ground. "Um....no...I actually feel sort of...embarrassed..." she said, glancing up at Vivi. "And seriously wondering why I put a golf ball in my mouth."

They didn't know where those things had been!

"Selina is the best," Vivi agreed as she leaned against Kurumi heavily. She was getting tired. Soooo tired. "But where will we live?" Big questions. Didn't Kurumi want to live in Romania or something? And Selina would be here.

And Kurumi was feeling ill? Vivi rubbed her forehead as she straightened up again. Now that the girl mentioned it, this all seemed a bit silly. Why were they standing at the mini golf course and chewing on golf balls? "Maybe we should head back to the castle."

The plant heard noises and thunking ... as it slid away from the boars and onto the green patch of the golf course... and noticed something round and small and bumpy. Slowly, quietly, the pretty plant selected one of the small round items and pulled it towards its mouth...

"She is," Kurumi nodded again. Really, she was glad that they happened to meet on the Knight Bus back when Selina was an incoming first year. "I was looking to get a place in London after I graduate, actually," Kurumi said with a small blush appearing on her cheeks. Yeah, that conversation still needed to happen and she still needed to write Treyen about him helping and what not...

With a small nod, Kurumi turned away when...
o______________________O

THAT THING WAS BACK!

Kurumi drew her wand instantly and jumped backwards rather suddenly, bumping into Vivi in the process. Looked liked something else was interested in chewing on golf balls.

Vivi probably would have commented on Kurumi's plans to live in London, 'cause HEYVIVIWASGOINGTOBEINLONDON, but she was completely distracted by the tendrils of a plant wrapping around Kurumi's golf ball a few feet away.

OUTRAGE. "NO. That is KURUMBLY'S golf ball!" She unholstered her wand and began to stalk across the green. She was going to kick it in its big flowery FACE.

Hey...Vivi WAS right! That was her golf ball and now she suddenly wanted it back. Or did she? She was a little confused on the matter to be honest. Half of her brain was waving red flags everywhere and telling her this was a bad idea and they should be taking protective measures to ensure that something bad didn't happen...

....but the other side of her brain - the fuzzy one - wanted HER golf ball back. "Yeah...YEAH! ONLY I'm allowed to put that in my mouth!" Kurumi replied as she stormed after Vivi.

Belle walked outside and decided to visit the golf course. Belle always wanted to play Mini golf. She played it back home and was always very good at it. Ethan said she would meet Belle here. What other perfect place than the golf course? It was a beautiful spring day, why not enjoy it with a fun activity like this.

Ethan sprinted out towards the golf course, eyes alert for any sign of things out of place. Having played this game once before, he sort of knew what he was doing and he stepped up to the entrance seeing that Belle was already there. "Hi, Belle," he said grabbing two putters, one for each of them. Handing one to her, the boy picked up a blue golf ball for himself and said, "Okay.. I've only played one so I'm probably rubbish at it."

Walking towards the first hole, he turned back to the Hufflepuff Prefect. "Thanks for helping me practice though.. I'm told Minnie's pretty good at this game and I'd like to be halfway decent when I play with her." As in not get destroyed. And they were still going on their double date as far as he was concerned, so he could use all the practice he could get.

As Belle turned around, she saw Ethan was here. "Oh hi Ethan!" Belle said excited to see him. Then she took the putter he gave her. Belle did not believe it. "I am sure you are not rubbish. I have not played this game in a while well years. I went to a mini golf course when i was 11 or 12, in my first year. My uncle took me. I never went back since so i am excited to play."

As they walked to the first hole, Belle heard Ethan thanking her. "Oh you are very welcome. I am no competition so we will be learning together. I will help you make sure you win against Minnie." she said with a playful wink. "Who are you going to play Mini golf with besides Minnie? You playing with any other people?"

"I do think so and I think she'd really enjoy it if we did that for her." Besides, Ella liked making people smile and she was sure Minnie would be smiling if they went ahead and thanked her for helping them sort things out. "You know, I wouldn't be upset if you wanted to spend some more time with her. I know she probably misses you a lot and I'm sure you miss her too." And as much as Ells liked having Harvey all to herself, she'd never want to keep him from his best friends. The fourteen year old continued being pink as Harvey continued to say the sweetest things to her. JHFJHFKHKHFK. How was he able to do that, make her feel all loopy inside? It was an odd sort of magic that only he seemed to have and it puzzled the blonde.

"Bored...of you?" Ella tilted her head to the side and eyed her boyfriend with a small frown playing on her lips. "Harvs do you actually think I'd get bored being around you?" That was kind of silly, yeah? "It's not possible." She'd never be bored as long as he was around. Even just sitting quietly by the lake was great as long as he was there. Just facts, those were.

The disappointed look on Harvey's face? It made Ella giggled a little and shake her head at him. They were here to play golf, yeah? Grin. They might as well play. "Just trying to get on with beating you, Harvs." Hahah! Yup, she went there. She also stuck her tongue out at the boy, being the mature third year that she was. The small badger watched as he took his turn and smiled a little when he missed the hole as well. "Welp... looks like we'll both need to try again." And she walked towards her ball, placing her putter down and hitting it carefully at the hole. "Come on..." She said, rooting for the ball to go into the hole...which it did. BEAM! "Got it!" She said triumphantly, jumping up and down a bit before stopping and smiling sheepishly at Harvs. "I mean..." Ahem. "Your turn, Harvey."

Harvey smiled as she agreed on his idea, he nodded "Yeah I think she would as well, I mean who would not enjoy time with us.. right?" he chuckled jokingly. He looked and listened as she talked about him hanging out with Mins "Yeah I know you wouldnt.. and.. yeah I guess she would miss me.. I mean.. we have been friends for a long time we have never NOT hung out.. so maybe this summer we will get a chance to." he nodded "Yeah.. I do miss her.. but you know.. she has Ethan..and I have you.. and then classes.. it becomes tough to juggle everything.. but I will try to hang out with her more. Though we have hung out a bit so its not like we totally havent.. just.. not as much as we would usually" darn classes.. he never understood why Mins wanted him to go to class.. except well to know the stuff.. and.. see.. Ella.. of course.. but apart from that it took up all his time. He grinned as she saw her go pink.. AGAIN! Woohoo.. he was well on his way to making a record that was for sure!

He looked at her as she questioned his statement, he nodded a little before she said it was not possible.. he raised his eyebrows "Are you sure? I mean.. we do hang out.. alot! and.. sometimes I wonder if you.. might prefer to hang out with.. other.. people. Just the way you want me to hang out with Mins.. I want the same for you" he said as he put a hand on her cheek "I am serious." he said to her cause he was just in the fun.. concerned way serious.

He heard her giggle as he was.. kinda not so happy about her moving away so soon. He chuckled and shook his head as she talked about beating him before sticking her tongue out at him, he knew he had already lost with her doing things like that! She DID know they could be distracting.. right? He was not too bummed about missing that hole he was more bummed about her moving away.. but one look at her.. and all that was gone! He nodded "Yup we will" he smiled as he watched her take her shot and slam dunking it into the hole.. he smiled as she jumped up and down before stopping and smiling at him.. before his turn "Ok.. it is.. and well done on your shot.. it was a good one!" he smiled as he stood by his ball which was a little further from the hole than her ball. He then took aim.. and he just happened to glance at her as he played his shot.. making him miss the hole.. again.. was she trying to distract him or was she managing it very well? He wouldnt know just yet.
