Aiden smiled triumphantly at the fireplace. The flames were now well lit so the common room looked more alive. Aiden then sighed, and sat down on the couch, and heard Isabelle run over to the other side of the common room. For some reason didn't have that unusual empty feeling he got when he was away from Stacey. This time he felt more alive, just like the common room seemed to change when the flames were lit. Aiden turned around, and saw Stacey sitting with Isabelle. He smiled, and walked over to the two of them.
"Hey, when did you get here?" Aiden asked Stacey with a grin. He leaned his back against the wall of the staircase.
