*is pacing the room, stressed. runs a hand through his spiked short brown hair and holds his forehead for a moment, then starts to pace agian, an angry wave surrounding him**lets out a roar of frustration, and leaves the room**stuffs hands in pockets and walks down the stairs to the grounds wher turns to the water to let out his frustration**dives in and does a few laps under water, where it is easier to think in the silence, then gets back out and walks to the edge of the forest where, yet agian, starts to pace*
*comes running out of the forest in panic and bumps into Zack* nuts!! Sorry! Can I borrow you wand? I really need it!*the sound of thousands of paws hitting the ground comes into earshot* *I just used banned forum word no.2! Please report me to admin:)* THIS!*closes eyes and concentrats everything stops in time except Zack and Ginny*sorry..... can I use your wand for a minute?
*expression of anger doesn`t change at all as searches in pocket and pushes wand towards her* here. *folds arms to see what happens*
thank you! *runs into the forest and several blasts are herd the she comes out smileing*thanks*hands him his wand the lets time go to original stte* So whats got your hair bristled?
*takes wand and stuffs it back in pocket* dont worry about it. *doesn`t look at her*
*folds arms and suddenly looks like her mother* Whats wrong Zack? Maby I can help!
believe me, you can`t.*sighs and stares around, still not looking at her*
*glares at him* Tell me! Zack I'm your friend and I'll help in any way I can!You should know that! And If you don't trust me or something like that, then I guess that I really am not your friend.....
Ginny, I`d trust you with my life, as I have many times before. Just-......*thinks of something to say**isn`t telling the complete truth about what is bothering him, but it is part of it* FUDGE!!! *throws hands up in the air in disbelief* GOD, I CAN`T BELIEVE HIM! HE ACTUALLY TRIED TO HAVE ME ARRESTED! *shakes head* life is hell sometimes. *still doesn`t look at her, but decided to end the conversation**walks up to the common room agian and sits on the couch, laying back, his mind blocked from any intruders as he stares blankly into the fire*
*walks in and stands in front of him with her hands on her hips* Zack, you kno I can break through that barrier to your mind but I don't want to have too! Why dosent anyone trust me enough! Especcily you! God I know not to do something stupid and tell!Jesus Christ!*fold arms and sits on a chair facing the fire a tear running down her face*
Ginny. *shakes head* I do trust you, this is-..........something I`m taking to the grave. *states this more than he actually says it* I`m not telling anyone, now lay off. You can`t enter my mind either, I`ve mastered Occumency also. *looks up at her with eyes no longer angry, but angry, but depressed*
yeah whatever*wipes away tear and gets up and walks to a bookshelf*(S**T! I have to go!)*sighs* It's just no one, and its not just you trusts me anymore......I mean I'm not a littel kid so I can take things on full force and it seems that very few people belive when I say that.....
(k :()
*sighs and sakes head* Ginny, I TRUST you ok? *stands up* I really do. Always have, always will, your a good friend. Just I`m not telling ANYONE! *suddenly starts yelling before even knows it* I HATE THE WAY THINGS ALWAYS TURN OUT! I CAN`T STAND THE WAY I`M TREATED EITHER, YOUR DEFINATELY NOT THE ONLY ONE. THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I HAVE TO WORK OUT MYSELF! *turns on heal and leaves the room, slaming the portriat closed after him**walks down the steps where runs, unfortunately, into the Slytherin who always tries to get him to unwind**hopes he won`t notice him because he knows he`ll explode, but he does:
him:Hey, look who it is. Its Zaphina!
me:*bites toungue, but can`t stop the comments from rolling out of mouth**cusses him out completely, everyone around them staring open mouthed* ...SO NOW YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL, SO LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *lets out another roar of frustration and leaves to the grounds agian*
*Sits by the lake, hugging her knee's and swaying to the wind. She hears someone coming and stands, then runs off into the beginning of the forest. She hides behind a tree and covers her head with her hood.*
*watches Zack's temper tantrum from afar, frowns and changes into her Dragon form and circles above him, leting a small whift of smoke encircle him playfully*
*doesnt bother to look up, as knows who it is, and pulls hood over head and puts hands in pockets and stares at theground as walks, posture slightly slumped**walks acrosste grounds owards hogesmeade*
*storms into Hogesmeade and goes to a coffee shop and sits alone at a table staring moodily at hands on the table*
*is already in Hogsmeade and spots him walk into the shop. walks in right behind him and takes a seat* hey! *smiles cheerily* didn't expect to see you hear *continues to smile*
hey....*tries but can`t muster a smile**voice is quiet* whats up?
*bright smile immediately fades to a blankless stare* what's wrong? *gets a worried look on face and sounds concerned*
*voice is still a pained quiet and angry* nothing. don`t worry about it, I`m fine. *doesn`t even look up at her* so what were you doing today?
*aches inside to know that there's something wrong that he won't tell her. then looks down at the table and keeps the blank look* nothing. *is silent for a minute, then scoots closer next to him and says in a quite tone* please tell me Zack.... i just want to help you! *looks at him a bit helplessly* i know something is wrong and i want to be there for you, so, here i am. *looks at him and waits for his reply*
no....no, I`m fine. *voice grows a little more flat* dont worry about it.
*looks at him, a bit stunned* Zack.... *doesn't continue on and just sits there in silence. then sighs and rests head in arms on the table*
look, Isis...*puts a hand on her shoulder* just don`t worry about it, alright? I just cant make myself tell anyone right now.
(sorry-- g2g, buh bye :(, ttul!)
*sits up and nods head* k. *still doesn't really understand and sighs*
(k, :( see ya later :) :))
*sighs in relief* thanks. *squeezes her shoulder, then stands up and exits the shop, dissapearing in the street*
*sighs as he leaves and remains in the shop*
*walks to the end of the road and stops, just as it starts to rain, and sighs, then heads up to the castle ascan`t think o anything else to do*
*stays there for awhile, and then finally gets up and leaves. walks around for awhile, and then finally heads back to the castle*
(man, I got to go :( sorry. See ya later sometime :-*) *gets to the common room and looks around, then sits on the ground the fire, in the dark corner and sighs, then leans back and closes eyes, not really going to sleep though*
(k, buh bye :'( :-*)
*makes it to the castle just before it starts to pour outside. walks up to the common room. sees him and sighs. thinks he's asleep and walks over to a couch. grabs a blanket off of it and leans over him. places the blanket over him gently and smiles at him*
*opens eyes as a blanket is put on him, and sees her* Isis..............*stands up, holding the blanket*
*is a bit startled and takes a step back* o.... i didn't mean to wake you... i'm sorry.
no, don`t be sorry, I wasn`t asleep. *looks questionably at her then, wondering if she`d know* Isis.....*starts to pace* did you know a man named Alex Fox?
*thinks for a minute, then watches his feet as he paces* umm, possibly.... sounds a bit familiar.... why do you ask?
because-.....*stops pacing and looks at her, more serious than ever* its important......to me.
*realizes the serious look on his face and thinks that she will understand better if she were to know what is exactly going on. takes a few steps closer to him and stands right in front of him. holds his hand and puts her other hand to his cheek so he'll look at her. now has a look of sadness on face* Zack.... please tell me what's going on.... i want to know, i want to help. i really do! please, tell me.
I know you do Isis, but you can`t possibly help me unless you know him. please just answer me.
*sighs and removes hand from his cheek, feeling like she's not trusted or misunderstood. looks down at the ground and lets go of his hand* i told you.... i'm not sure. but if you need a definate answer, which i'm assuming, no. i probably only recognize the name from a wee blurb of something i read *shakes head lightly* so no. *a pause of silence* i'll be in my room if you need me *sighs again and looks up at him, then turns and heads towards the stairs*
Isis..........*watches as she starts to leave and looks torn* please...
*stops and turns around towards him*
*still has that torn look on his face* I know you don`t understand, but please, please don`t be mad.......*walks up to herand holds her hands in his, then looks up directly into her eyes* I dont understand most of it..but I`ll tell you when I do alright. *kisses her on the cheek and dissapears*
*sighs and stands there, not wanting to be left alone. slowly walks up to dorm, and carefully locks door behind her. sits down at desk and begins to study*
(several weeks later....)
*enters to the empty common room with dark rings around eyes and a pale look to face but is otherwise fine**plops on the couch and turns into it, eyes closed**falls asleep*
*walks down from dorm room coughing. makes way down the stairs and then spots Zack, and realizes that he's sleeping. bites tongue to keep from coughing so as not to wake him. smiles, then sits down next to him and grabs his hand. just remains there, worried about him*
*as her hand touches his, jumps to a sitting position, one hand in pocket on wand in one movement. sees her and relaxes, a tired smile forming on his face* hey *takes hand back out of pocket and holds hers*
*jumps a bit to his quick reaction* hey.... *brings legs up onto the couch* sorry, i didn't mean to wake you.
s`ok *smiles, obviously glad to see her* how`ve you been?
*shrugs* fine.... how have you been? *puts a hand to his forehead and brushes hair out of his tired face, concerned*
*smiles at her, then shrugs* well...I found some ofwhat I was looking for...I promised I`d tell ou what was going on...kinda hard to explain, but I will if ya want me to..
*smiles back at him and slowly brings hand back to self. then nods head*
well you know that guy-Alex Fox- who I asked you if you knew?Well I was right, he was the same person I thought he was. I asked you `cause if you knew him, you`d probably be in trouble. Anyway, I tracked him down...ask-well I made him tell me-stuff. found out that he`s friends with Voldy....not pretty, anyway, he was as he put it ``involved`` with my parents` deaths. *mumbles* involved *shakes head* more the cause more like... *at that turns pale, shivering a bit*
o, i'm sorry. *frowns and puts a comforting hand on his shoulder* well if this kid is so much trouble.... why is he here? wouldn't Dumbledore have stoped him or surely have done something?
thanks..he never went to hogwarts...Durmstrang...thats how I met him. *looks down at the couch*
*mouth drops a bit and looks shocked* you went there? i never knew that.... i don't think you ever told me, did you?
no...I never told anyone...I wasn`t exactly the best there, if you get my catch. I was only there for like six months, untill September when Hogwarts started agian.
o.... *nods head and isn't really sure what to say*
*shakes head* long story *sighs and sinks down into the couch*
*sits there, still a bit shocked, then finally speaks* well, with Dumbledore around, surely this guy wouldn't show up.... correct? i mean, Voldemort himself won't even show his face around here with Dumbledore.... right?
*looks at her, the truth etched across his face* wrong...thats why I was so edgy that day...he showed up...sorry about that though, you know I didn`t mean it right?
yea.... i just didn't know what was wrong.... it's ok, i'm just glad that.... well, i don't know. can't really say that anybodys safe yet. *sighs and then frowns*
yeah.....*sighs and leans aginst her shoulder tiredly, finally starting to relax*
*smiles and rests head on his shoulder too, then sighs*
*smiles tiredly and wraps an arm around her shoulders, rubbing her arm gently, and looks around in silence, before eylids start to droop, drifting off*
*smiles and then looks up at him. sees him beginning to drift off and continues to smile. rests head on his chest and closes eyes too*
*falls asleep*
*falls asleep too*
*next day way, way past noon**is still asleep*
*finally wakes up and sees Zack. smiles and remains there, not wanting to wake him*
*remains asleep, snug aginst her shoulder, his head dropping to her shoulder*
*continues to smile and rests her head on top of his gently*
*finally wakes, though still a bit tired**opens eyes and blinks, then looks up at her and sees shes awake* hey *gives her a one-armed hug*
hey *smiles and kisses his cheek gently*
*finally smiles and holds her, still waking up**streaches then sits up*er-afternoon? *laughs a bit*
*giggles* yea, it's kinda late in the day.
*laughs and sinks back into the couch aginst her, ignoring the nagging in his mind about classes*
*smiles then sighs and continues to stay there*
*falls asleep on her shoulder*
*is too tired to fall asleep, and just remins there smiling. finally, slowly stands up, careful not to wake him. makes way up to dorm room to change. comes back down five minutes later in white skirt and pink halter top. sighs and walks over to the window and sees lots of fog, even though it's past noon. stands there looking out the window *
*walks in laughs madly*
*jumps and turns to her. rolls eyes and then quickly puts a finger to mouth, signaling her to be quite*
*jumps a bit at the noise, but stays asleep anyway*
