*She sits in the Dining hall, an hour or so before dawn, at the end of the Gryffindor table, alone, eating a bit of toast, and reading a book, laid out on the table before her. Her eyes run back over the pages as she reads, unmoving. The hall was unusually silent, as no one else but she resided inside, and very dark, save for the candle she'd set a few inches away, to light her book..*
*sits next to her,yawning.*morning.
*She looks up at him, a bit startled, as she had been too deeply entranced in her book to see him come up to her.
Dark rings circled her eyes, that flickered over his form, and then met his eyes, a smile forming upon her lips.*
Hey Ron. What brings you to my humble circle of candle-light so early in the morning?
*she walked through the doors and saw Lavender, she walked over and sat down next to her* "Morning!" *she said very happily as if she had already had three cups of coffe*
*She turns toward Candy, raising an eyebrow.*
You too. What is up with you two today? I don't think I've ever had the company of another this early in the moning, here in the Great Hall.
*She smiles, amused*
*returns the smile* "I dunno, I just couldnt sleep this morning."
Ah. I know the feeling well.
*She offers a sort of half-grin*
*smiles* "Yeah, I've been awake all night and I just couldnt take it anymore, I had to get out of bed."
*She laughs.*
I've lost count of the days. Sleep doesn't come to me as easily as it would to others. It never has,
*She picks up the plate at her left.*
Toast?
*takes some toast out of the plate* "Thanks." *she said as she put some butter on it*
She nods. She yawns deeply, and as she does so, the candles, forever hovering over their heads, became suddenly alight with tall, icy flames. Then, as the yawn ended, they returned to their unlit, cold hovering state.
"Welcome."
"So how has your morning been so far?"
"Unusual, actually. Very quiet."
"Thats good, I dont like quiet though. I'll have to think of a way to make it a bit louder"
She looks distanced, suddenly, but only briefly, for her tiredness returns.
"In my life, a spare moment of silence is rare, and therefore lovingly accepted. Though, most of the time, the silence is always interupted by trouble."
"Dont worry, you're my friend so I'll give you your silence."
A laughter emits from her, the greens of her eyes dancing.
"Well, that's good then!"
She shakes her head.
"But I don't mind being around you guys. It's others I've been trained to be annoyed by."
"Others, like who?"
"Merely anyone whom I don't know by more intamate relationship than a 'hello'. For example, I was hesitant to talk to you when I first met you. But then I met you, and got to know you things changed, did they not?"
She laughs.
"I know I'm uptight."
She shakes her head, sighing.
"But I learned to be that way, because every time I left myself with a weakness, I would be disstilled by another complication..."
She rolls her eyes, then laughs again.
"SO complicated!!"
*laughs* "That is complicated, so what time is it, it feels early"
"Four, or so.."
"OK, so are you looking forward to the day ahead?"
"No. Never. Today's Monday!"
"Oh great"*she mumbled*"I forgot that."
She laughs.
"Yep. A begillion more days till Friday evening."
*pulls out a book and starts reading* "Do you like to read?"
"Oh, yes. It is definately a dear hobby of mine."
"What kinda books are you interested in?"
"Ah. All kinds.... Many dark books, you could say, and different fictions. I like romance novels. I'm a 'hopeless romantic', I am told."
She shows Candy the cover, which reads "Gone With the Wind.."
"Same here, I like anything to do with romance." *she holds up her book 'A walk to remember'*
She laughs cheerily, shaking her head.
"Do you like music?"
She only nods in reply, a smile upon her lips.
"What type?"
"Any type of music. Any form. Any language."
"Interesting."
She laughs.
"Is it now?"
"Well it is to me."
She shakes her head, truely amused.
"And what particular interests do you have in the two?"
"What?" *she says feeling extremly confused*
"What interests do you have in books, and music?"
"My bad."*finally catching on*"I like romance books and rock music and rarely drift to anything else."
"No problem. That's nice."
She smiles, then bursts into another yawn.
"It must be nearing dawn by now, shouldnt it?"
She looks toward the window, and measures the time by the distinct rays of the sun.
"About ten minutes before. "
*she groans*"Oh well, time to face another day."
"Joy."
She sighs, and lifts up the bag of her school books from the floor beneath her seat, stuffing her reading book into it.
*gets up and heads to get her bag from the common room*"Wanna come with?"
"No reason why I shouldn't."
She smiles, and lifts her bag strap over her shoulder, following.
*heads for the common says the password and walks inside*
She follows Candy through the portriat, humming lightly, the new morning light illuminating the tires etchings about her features..
*she heads up to the room with Lavender in tow, she went into the dormitory, got her bag and headed out the portrait hole again*
Still follows.
"Ok, its my first day here, so whats first?"
"Potions. Another true joy."
"Great."*rolls her eyes*
*runs out of the room at a unhuman pace. AS he sees them he calls back* Potions class is early today. Snape will give anyone whos late clean up duty in the great hall for two months.
*looks confused*"Early, why?"
"Who cares, let's go before we get detention. Before I get more detention, that is."
She takes off toward the dungeons..
*is running the oppisit way fast enough to spin one of them around* Hey guys. ~Something must be wrong. All classes are early today!~
~Yeah, we noticed!~
She makes it to the dungeons, where Snape welcomes her with a hearty sneer.
~Ba*tard..~
*is sitting in the classroom outa breath*
~Wonder why though?~*she runs into History of Magic and takes her seat as Binns starts to drone*
~i didn't even know until Kiara told me~
*does a mental scan*~Nothing unuseal as far as I can tell.~
~I'll do a full school scan after class. I think all we can do for now is being on our toes and watching our backs.~
*walks in and sits next to Lav* "Oh god, I got lost."
*snape walks over with an evil sneer on his face, right before he is about to yell at Candy he freezes* *smiles* Little trick i picked up, now quick set the clock back.
"Good one, Harry."
She takes her books out of her bag, then begins searching about for her quill, which seems to have disappeared
*opens her bag to get her book, she takes it out and starts reading, turns to the others* "Is he always that evil?"
~Always Candy!~ *her thought is soft as she trys to be careful*
*smiles*~thanks for the tip, I'll be sure to stay clear of him, or at least try to stay off his bad side.~
~As if he even had a good side~
~Yeah, and he looks it too.~
~Oh, no. This is his good side.~
~Its gonna be an interesting year~*she laughed*
~No year is uninteresting, to say truthfully.~
*smiles*~Well, sometimes that can be a good thing.~
~Sometimes.~
*She turns to smile back at Candy*
*she laughs out loud by mistake and Binns stops reading and looks confusedly at her* Erm...history is sooooooo interesting Proffeser Binns.... *she smiles at him and he continues reading while her classmates sniker* ~Not always, Candy!~
*laughs*
