Lavy and Aidan were sitting on one the the couches in the common room. Her head was resting in his lap and she was reading a book. He was looking into the fireplace. The clock above them struck 1:00.
"You tired yet?" He asked her.
"She let the book drop gently into the floor, "No. But if you have somewhere to be I can move."
"No. Just want to keep you safe for now."
Lavy rolled her eyes and turned at the sound of someone coming into the room.
Stacey came in the common room door and clicked the door shut. She froze when she saw Lavy and Aidan. "I`s sorry." She said quietly.
((Are you and Aiden Dating))
Bucky saw Stacey and said "WAD UP"?
((I thougt u were Griffindors I am does it matter))
(no but he likes me alot)
Lavy looked up, "Oh, don't be. There's nothing to be sorry for. We weren't doing anything."
Stacey gave a small smile. She glanced at Aidan, ignoring Bucky. She sat in one of the big armchairs. "So... ?"
"How have you been Stacey? Really? How are you?" Lavy asked. Aidan moved his arm so that she could sit up.
Stacey hugged her knees. "Not really good." She said quietly, noticing the subject change.
"I know it's hard right now," Lavy said reaching out and touching her cheek gently. "But it will get better I promise."
"What's wrong?" Aidan asked, sitting up a little straighter. Lavy hadn't told him what was going on with Stacey yet.
Stacey was surprised at the sudden mother-like friendliness from Lavy. She was actually confused herself, she had so many problems anyway, but which one was Lavy talking about?
Lavy saw the confused look on her face, "How have all the voices been treating you?"
"Oh," Stacey said, now knowing which problem Lavy was talking about. "At least they shut up enough to let me get a little sleep." She said grumpily.
"It will get easier I promise."
Stacey nodded and sighed. "I know, someday."
"You'll have control over these soon enough. Then you'll be strong enough with the stronger ones."
Stacey shrugged. "Yea, well, what until then?"
"Just keep practicing keeping these ones that you have out. It's the best way to get stronger."
