    " Well, knowing the little ones in Hufflepuff - I bet they're all having tea and biscuits. A merry good time. " She teased, almost rolling her eyes at the notion. " I think being a Hufflepuff is hell in itself. Can you believe you get doused in vinegar if you get the password wrong? Utter madness. " The raven-haired girl scoffed, finally settling darkened hues on the other.

    " Or maybe that's just my thinking. Even as prefects, Hufflepuffs are an oddity. "

Odette had been quiet as soon as the year started. Being at Hogwarts this year is completely different, there was not much laughter in the halls or chatter, if at all. She was walking along the hallways, trying to find a change in scenery before the complete stress of classes takes over.

She walked outside and saw a student sat with bruises and red knuckles. It just so happens that he was sat in her favourite sun spots in the castle. She wanted to relax so she sat down next to him. She looked him over briefly before turning her head away from him. The harshness in his voice did not bother the Hufflepuff, she is used to it by now. "I'm not looking to talk. I just want to bask into the sun before classes get too much." She said to him. She tilts her head back and leans back as much as she felt like it to get as much heat and sun as possible.

"Let me guess, i should see the other guy. Who was it anyway? The lucky person that crossed your path?" She asked him as she looked at him. To be honest he looked like he possibly wanted company so she joined him for thst reason as well.

    " I-- " She had to stop herself from speaking at that moment. feeling a bile rise to her chest at the tone of his voice. " I'm not joking. " The girl managed to mutter - trying to hide her face with her hair desperately so as to not notice her paler figure.

    " The minute I graduate, it's going to be too late. " The expressed urgency was granted after the last letter from her father. His last words were offputting, the same sick feeling washing over Willow.

    " You're becoming an Auror, aren't you? I can send you owls. "

    @decrsum has broken her heart

    " I... "

            What could she possibly say?

    That she had seen him pass by on her day off in Hogsmeade?

    That she followed him to scare him - excited to see her favorite Slytherin. But she, unfortunately, stumbled upon the...incident - something Willow experienced every day, back at home.

    The prefect took his free hand in hers gently, some rustling of her robes, pulling out a Wiggenweld potion and pressing it into his palm. " This makes the pain go away. " She murmured under her breath - keeping her eyes on his chest. Willow knew the exact pain he was experiencing.

    How many times was she to take him to the infirmity before something was done? He could have been more seriously injured without the help of potions and magic - which struck something within Willow. It may have been her own memories of her father, but she worried about Theo and how far his family would take it.

    " You have to be kidding me, Mr. Darcy. " She sighed softly, her shoulders sagging with little relief that he was being so optimistic - but he shouldn't be.

    His confession stabbed into her stomach, pale lips pressing into a thin line as her gaze softened somewhat. " I've had the same thoughts myself. " She admitted with some defeat. " I wish I could do more for you. Can't we get a Boggart and release it to your father? " Their circumstances were vastly different, though the situation the same. Willow knew he couldn't make the same choices she could.

    the Yule Ball is almost here, @decrsum !!

    " Want to go with me ? " It was a silly question, asking him so boldly with that cheshire cat smile. " To the Yule Ball ~ I have the day off ~ "

    In all honesty, she had a few reservations before asking him bluntly. What if he said no? Someone might catch them going together - even if it was all in good sport. " Or shall I ask another Slytherin to take me ~ ? "

the slytherin boy was met by silence at first ; the girl needed a moment to size him up. she tried to keep an uninterested appearance as her eyes moved up & down his ... tall form , but she was sure something in her face BETRAYED her. lt had to , because all she had running through her mind was that she found him cute.

& that her favorite thing had been mentioned : people talking about her.

" mahina ... or just hina . " she started , slowly & flicking her eyes up to meet his gaze. " what have the girls been saying , hm ? everyones been talking about the troll , i know that. "

    " Aren't you my sister's boyfriend or something? Can't keep your friends in line? " The small brunette huffed at the taller Slytherin - trying to make herself look confident and doing it rather poorly. " B-Besides, Willow would be more than mad if she found out. The professors would tell her too. "

    It was a nuisance to be related to the raven-haired prefect - her sister keeping a close eye on her when she didn't need it. " It's either I get another boy to tell them to stop, or I make them stop myself and promptly get kicked out. Willow would most definitely come with me if the latter happened. " A pause. " You are the boy that fancies her, right? I don't believe I've gotten them mixed up... "
