“I would never fly when I am in a mood. It’s dangerous to fly when your head isn’t in the game.” He said, shrugging his shoulders as he massaged his palm gently. 

“Good point,” Violet nodded, “Just don’t want to be unnoticed again.”

If it was one thing Kellar was good at, it was understanding where people were coming from. Even though he was a big liar, he realized that most people enjoyed being truthful - even if just in their daily lives. So, he tried to take everything as granted. Violet seemed sweet enough and like she really needed his help. After all, Kellar had been in her exact spot before and didn’t receive any help, so he knew how that felt. “Deal,” He stated after a moment of thinking, flashing her a smile. Being on the other end of the hug, Kellar was surprised by it, but hugged her back. “Thanks! I hope you get a good grade on the assignment,” He commented. “Are you doing anything later? We should hang out some time, if you want..”

“So do I, I need that good grade. Something about that class is just awful. So i need to end a good note.” Violet smiled at the other. “As of right now, not really anything.” She tilted her head ever so slightly, “What were you thinking?” Violet knew the other kid was nice, despite what others thought about him. She got the feeling that there was more to him that met the eye and that’s exactly what she knew about herself to be true.

“Maybe you should try it yourself,” Gigi suggested, her tone not as short this time, as she reached down for her clothes. She didn’t mean to be quite so hard in her conversation with Violet, she knew the other girl had not really meant anything, it was all just a little teasing.

“I was actually thinking about it.” Violet nodded. “But have a good rest of your day.” She smiled at the other, hoping to leave her on a good note and not like the one they just started on.

“Make this work?” He asked, raising an eyebrow in question. He didn’t quite understand. 

“Yeah,” Violet nodded, “To make sure you don’t fly into me since you’re clearly in a mood.”

Jace is in the room of requirement trying to burn off some steam and he hears someone walk in on him. “I can leave,” he said, a little breathless before turning to see who it is.

Violet shook her head, “it’s really my fault. You look like you need it a lot more than I do.” She smiled wearily, hoping the other wouldn’t make her leave, but understanding that they both needed their own time.

“I understand,” He nodded. “I wish I had one for you, but I sadly don’t. I’d let you borrow it,” Kellar smiled back at Violet as well. “I totally can distract them for however long as you need, don’t you worry. Like I said, I’m a big talker…” He responded and thought for a moment. “No, you don’t need to give me anything. Unless you do happen to come across a time-turner. Then you should give that to me, because of how much I deserve it.” He chuckled. “But, other than that, no. I’m really fine,” He smiled again and then made his way up to the professor and began his art of distraction. After a few very long minutes of asking the teacher questions that ranged from what was going to be on the test today to what was going on in the teacher’s life, Kellar returned to where Violet was and raised his brows happily. “So?” He asked. “Did you have enough time? How’d I do?”

Violet nodded her head and let out a light laugh as the other explained how enjoyed talking. She was happy she came to him then, especially because he seemed willing to help her out. She knew she should have done her assignment, it was rather unlike her not too, but there were bigger questions floating around her head lately than that. “If i do find one, I’ll settle on sharing it with you.” Violet smiled and quickly walked away to meet her friend to figure out the answers. When she saw Kellar coming over to her shortly after she solved the questions, she smiled widely. “Thank you!” She wrapped her arms around him, hugging him happily. “You did excellent.”

Nice? Well that depended. As always, the water had been freezing at first but had soon warmed once she had been surrounded by it for enough time. However, there was the slightly bigger issue of the small panic she had every time she went under. Something that had been drilled into her all her life. Water was danger, particularly these waters. But of course, Violet didn’t need to know that so instead she shrugged and said, “ Nothing special.”

Violet nodded at the other after she responded shortly. She didn’t mind, though, she knew she gave off a bad impression throughout the entirely of the conversation, so she just smiled back at the other and responded, “Well I’m sure it was refreshing, even if it was nothing special..”

“Probably.” He said, reaching up to scratch his head and then push his sweaty hair to the side. “I’m normally pretty observant. I apologize.”

“It’s okay, I am use to be overlooked anyways,” Violet smiled after her joke. “But we are going to have to make this work somehow.”

Cal was nervous; he hated waiting around, but lately that’s all he seemed to be able to do. He had made his way to the Quidditch pitch to try and wok off some stress that he had been feeling. He was in the middle of sprints when he realized he wasn’t alone, and he turned around, pushing his sweaty hair back from his forehead as he tried to catch his breath. “How long have you been standing there?” He asked.

“Sorry, I was in the middle of stretching when I noticed another on the field. You probably didn’t notice that you weren’t alone when you came over.” Violet tilted her head to the side as she blabbered.

Gigi laughed as she realised why Violet was looking so strangely at her wand, surely the girl did not think that she would challenge her to a duel over something that was so clearly not true. She laughed and shook her head, lifting the wand to cast a drying charm. “You should not worry, I just did not wish to walk to my dorm wet,” She explained as she tossed her now drying curls away from her face.

Hearing the words come out of Gigi’s mouth, Violet found her calmness back. She really didn’t like confrontation and it made her way to nervous for her own good. “Smart thinking,” Violet beamed awkwardly at the other. “Was the water nice?” Violet asked as her eyes looked back over at the water.

“True, true, we’d have to scramble to cram everything we needed to get through in, and it probably wouldn’t work. We’d need a time-turner,” Kellar replied and chewed on the inside of his cheek as Violet sighed. “Oh, distract the professor? I can do that for you. I’m a big talker, so I just need to get the professor on a subject their passionate about and we’ll be more than late. You’ll have enough time to figure out your next part of your plan, promise.”

“A time turner would be excellent. But the little time I have I don’t think i can find one.” Violet smiled at the other. “I hope you can distract them for long enough, my friend told me she has the answered waiting for me. I just need time to scribble them down. Do you want anything in exchange?”

Natalie rolled her eyes. “Bet it was a second year, they always try to pick fights. I’ll be right back.” She started walking toward the crowd.

Violet nodded, “Typical, that’s their way of showing off.” she agreed as she tried coming behind the professor wanting to see what all the ruckus was about for herself.

Gigi laughed aloud at Violet’s shy tone, beginning to push herself up onto the shore. “Why would it offend me that you think I look as though I live in the water?” She raised as sceptical eyebrow as she reached for her wand, “Have you seen the things that live here? They are very ugly.”

“Which is exactly why I wouldn’t want you to think otherwise. I just think they’re very interesting creatures” Violet gave the other a perfected half smile, she was used to getting fearful of others harsh tones. Her eyes glanced down as she was smiled and saw the other reaching for her wand, unsure why, she spoke up, “I really didn’t mean any harm.”

“Oh, you need help? Then I’m the boy for you,” Keller claimed with a little grin. He took another cookie as he finished his first one and planned on eating right then. “Don’t worry, my father loves to smother me with letters too. I know how it feels, but, yeah, did you want me to do the assignment for you?” He asked, before pausing and then stating happily: “Also, you’re cookies are more than lovely!”

“I would of asked you to help with the assignment, but seeing as the class is next period, we don’t have much time.” Violet sighed with annoyance, which she hoped the other would understand was directed at herself, and not him. “I am hoping you’ll distract the professor good enough that he’s late to class and I can just figure out my next part of my plan.”

Gigi’s face hardened slightly in mock seriousness, her eyebrow raised as she looked up at Violet’s reddening face. “Are you saying that I look like a creature from below?” She questioning as her head tilted a little.

“That’s not what I was implying. I was rather far away.” Violet spoke shyly, afraid she upset the other. “I’ve been told I have terrible eye sight. So that might be why I made that mistake. But really, why would that offend you?”

“Really? At times like this, you’re bribing me with food to win my love?” Kellar arched his brow, but being one to be persuaded easily, his expression eased. He nodded. “Because, it’s working,” He extended his hands to silently ask for the plate of sweets to be given to him. “How did you know cookies are my favorite?”

[violetsorrosiers-blog]

“I thought it would be best, especially since I am going to need to super convince you to help me pull this stunt.” She smiled happily, handing the other another cookie. “My mother has been writing me more and I got totally swamped in her letters I forgot my assignment. So I’m hoping my cookies are tasting lovely.”

“What’s going on? Why is it so crowded?”
