Heather and .....?

ℋeather shook her head at him. He didn't earn the title of Vice Captain by being the most athletic. He was a good, reliable player. That's why he was given the title. No other reason could explain it. He noted her own new title as Captain, and she nodded with a sigh. She loved the job, but it was troublesome at times. She opened her mouth to respond when a boy with dark hair and glasses poked his head out of seemingly nowhere and began speaking to Chase. "Just ask her out. She likes you. And you like her." Her mouth, still slightly open from her attempt at speaking, dropped like a dead weight, and her eyes widened. What did he just say? She did not like Chase! And he did not like her! 'Do I? Does he?' 'Of course he doesn't like you. Who could ever like a little nothing like you?' 'But he's always been nice to me, and ever since the start of this year he's been acting kinda weird...' 'You are an idiot for thinking such things. Someone like him deserves better than someone like you. No one will ever love you. You are filth, nothing but a speck of dirt in the background, never to be noticed or dealt with.' 'You... You're wrong...' 'Am I? Who are you going to believe? Me, or some bookworm of a boy that you don't even know?' Heather blinked back to reality, her mental conversation with the voice hurting her head. It was then that she caught a glimpse of the boy's grin, and she knew exactly who it was. Sam's older brother, Simon she believed his name was. Standing abruptly, Heather pushed back her chair, the wooden legs squeaking on the floor. Her hands supported her on the table, for she was afraid of falling over. She glared at the boy, who was leaning back into the booth from which he came. "Shut it, Meridith! You don't know anything! You don't even know me! So keep that big nose of yours in your books where it belongs and out of my love life!" she screamed at him. Her gaze shifted to Chase, who was clearly blushing like a madman from the way he was hiding his face and twitching about. Just thinking about it made her own face tingle as it grew warm and shaded itself to a red comparable to that of the Gryffindor crest. Without even snapping the book she was reading closed, Heather turned and ran away from the library, her long hair flowing out behind her like ribbons in a summer breeze. She just needed to get away from here, away from the books and the words and... Chase. Most definitely away from him. At least until she figured out the strange pounding in her chest. Flying through the main doors of the library, the Hufflepuff fled.

A scream broke the silence that Chase had been enduring. Looking up, he realized that Heather had heard everything and was furious at Simon. The Ravenclaw totally did not expect this from her and grew worried as she ran from the library, though more so confused than anything else. Leaning back into his chair, he sunk down while looking at the ceilings. Chase didn't know what to make of this situation. Was he just dumped?

                                  Damien stalked the rows and rows of books persistently, his eyes roving the titles of each with care, trying to find what he was looking for. This was where he'd discovered the first book on wandlore, so it stood to reason that this would be the place to find more, right? And yet, he was having absolutely no luck. He sighed a bit. One would think that the school would have more, right? Didn't they want people to become wandmakers? After all, it took considerable talent and skill to do magic without one, so the magical community'd be in quite a bad spot if people who knew how all just died out. They'd basically be muggles at that point, wouldn't they? And yet, he was finding absolutely nothing. He sighed and sat down for a moment at one of the tables. He still thought there should be an elective for this sort of thing. Even if it was a trade. Potion-making was a trade, and they had to take that from their first year onward! How odd, then, that no one bothered to teach them about what was quite possibly the most important thing a witch or wizard could own. He sighed again, and laid down his head. He needed to see Marina. She always made him feel better when he was agitated... provided that she wasn't the source of it.

Marina had a feeling she'd find Damien here. Call it a sixth sense. Or maybe she just had natural boyfriend stalking powers. Either way, she was glad to see him, even if he didn't look very happy at the moment. She slipped into the seat next to him and patted his head in a comforting manner. "No luck finding a book?" she asked, making an educated guess. It sort of sucked that there were no classes related to the trade Damien wanted to pursue. She laid her head down as well, looking at him with a slight smile. She hoped she could cheer him up. She just wanted him to be happy, after all.

                                  When he heard her voice, his lips turned up into a smile, and his eyes opened to find hers staring back. He leaned in and placed a kiss on the tip of her nose. "None whatsoever," he answered, all traces of annoyance gone from his demeanor. Her arrival, right when he'd wished her to appear, seemed... magical. His eyes sparkled as he realized how silly that would sound, sitting in the library of a magical school. But there was no other word for it. Magic. He sat up, his eyes growing mischievous, a smirk forming on his lips. "How did you know I was here? Have you been stalking me, Marina Aldred?" he asked playfully, knowing very well that it would hardly take a genius to figure out where he was. He only had two friends, her and Dominic, and there were only three locations in the whole castle, other than his lessons, that he might be. He did wonder, though, if she'd come here first. He had a suspicion that she had. She did know him rather well, after all.

Marina laughed when he kissed her nose, jerking back in surprise. She straightened up, delighted to see him smirking. She shrugged, an almost playful light in her eyes. "I used my secret powers, obviously." she replied, rolling her eyes. "The ancient art of boyfriend stalking is taught to every Slytherin girl, silly." The redhead paused and then gave a mock sigh. "But if I'm bothering you then I'll leave." She pretended to get up and leave. Oh, this was fun.

                                  Damien laughed a little, grabbing her wrist when she acted like she was going to leave. "Well, I mean, you're already here..." He moved so his chair was pulled out from under the table and tugged her wrist so she came down into his lap. "What have you been doing?" He felt like they hadn't spent any time together since school had started back up, except for in classes. He thought about how he'd written about how pretty she looked in Astronomy. It was true. She was incredibly pretty. He wrapped his arms around her waist to hold her in his lap, his eyes staring into hers.

Marina smiled and leaned back contentedly in his lap. "I wanted to tell you what just happened, actually. You're never going to believe this." she said, still a bit shocked herself by what had happened. "I got bored so I took a walk around the dungeons. The basement, technically. Anyways I ran into Ada and Nell. She had some plants she was giving out for presents. Mine was poisonous," she added with a laugh. "But that's not the point. Michelle showed up too and we're all just standing around talking when this masked figure- I mean, literally masked, like a muggle superhero, shows up." She paused for a moment before continuing. "So of course we're all instantly sort of suspicous, because normal people don't sneak up on teenage girls. Ada gets nervous and starts rambling, like she always does, Michelle and I are about ready to fight him, and Nell just stares. And then he goes off on this long rant about not judging people by their appearances, while judging us by our houses. And basically backhandedly insults all of us, but especially Ada, while saying his name is White Fox and that he's some sort of school guardian. Completely crazy. But Ada, shy Ada, suddenly snaps and told him off. She got so mad. It was awesome. I was so proud of her. She countered everything he said without even stuttering. Then she just walked off and Nell followed her and I made a few sarcastic comments and left. And here I am." She took a deep breath. "It was just so weird. I mean, more weirder than normal for Hogwarts. That was what I was doing. How was your day?" she asked brightly.

                                  Damien listened, his eyes wide, as Marina detailed the girl's encounter with the man. When she started talking about how Adalaide had gone off on the man, he chuckled a bit. "I forget sometimes that you guys don't know what she's like when she's not so nervous," he said, and instantly after, he felt guilty. It was his fault she was like that. His fault she was so shy, so scared to branch out. His expression became serious for a second as he remembered her going off on his mother at the age of eight... and how his mother had responded. He shuddered a bit, then smiled, trying to force the thoughts away. Trying to forget the memories. "She used to be like that all the time. Protective, outspoken. I'm glad to hear that she's getting back into that, coming out of her shell." He looked back into Marina's eyes, anchoring himself, pulling himself out of his melancholy and back to her. She seemed rather amused by it all... if the encounter hadn't been dangerous, he supposed it was rather amusing. Still, who was this guy, and why was he stalking young girls in the halls? Try as he might, Damien simply couldn't stop his more serious side from taking over. "Do you think the Headmistress knows about this guy?" He certainly hoped so; if she did, it meant he was legit, if strange. If not... she definitely needed to be told. He sighed a bit, trying to think of an answer to her question. "I've been in class, and then here. Not much going on really." He smirked a bit, his eyes dancing. "I suppose I'm not terribly interesting, am I?" Not at all, really. School and books. School and books. The most interesting thing about him was that he was dating her. Or, almost dating her. He thumbed the ring again.

Marina watched his expression carefully. One, because he was very handsome, there, she'd said it. And two, because she wanted to watch his reaction. He laughed and then grew serious, then he smiled, then serious again, and then he was smirking. "Yeah. She's much different then she used to be. It's good she's coming back to her original self." At Damien's question she nodded slowly. "I'd imagine so. He's not very subtle, you know? If three girls can know about him, the headmistress must. She'd have to, being in charge of the whole castle." She was confident that the man, whoever he really was, was for the most part harmless. He hadn't seemed threatening or shady, just odd. She'd met more potentially dangerous students.

When he answered her question she shook her head, smirking as well. "No! You're very interesting. How many other Slytherin boys actually frequent the library?" she asked teasingly. She kissed him on the nose, as he had kissed her, twisting in his lap and wrapping her arms around the back of his neck for a moment. "You're different. Different is good."

                                  Damien smiled, though he didn't really believe her. The reason none of the other Slytherin boys frequented the library was because there was absolutely nothing interesting about it, and say what you would about Slytherins, they were interesting. For the most part. There was the odd exception, of course, himself for one. Marina, on the other hand... she was frightfully interesting. He shook his head a little. "Different and interesting aren't quite the same thing, but alright. If you say so." He leaned back in the seat so he was looking up at her. The lights in the library did wonders for her red hair. It was gorgeous. He tilted his head. "I'm okay with not being interesting, actually. The last time anything interesting happened to me, I ended up in a coma for six months, and a walking coma for another year. Only good thing to come out of it all was-" He stopped, smiling widely, his eyes sparkling. "Was you. Actually, I take it back. If the next interesting thing to happen to me ends up as good as the last, I think I'll take it." Not that he wanted to replace her, or wanted something better to come along, which he realized after he spoke was how that might be taken. More like, if the last near death experience had brought them together, he wouldn't completely write of whatever good might come of the next one. If this could happen because of them both almost dying first year, he would accept that, perhaps, good things could come from the bad, and sometimes, those things were good enough to make that bad thing worth it.

Marina shrugged. "They can be. You're certainly not boring." She might have said more but he went on, and she sombered. "That was more along the lines of terrifying, I think. Eventful, but horrible all the same." At his next words she blinked in shock for a moment before they sunk in. "Me too," she admitted. "I know it sounds bad, but I'm glad I went into the Gardens that night." It was strange how terrrible things could bring people together. But sometimes they did. If none of that had happened at all, they certainly wouldn't be in this position right now. They'd probably still hate each other. But Marina didn't want to think about that, so instead she just looked at Damien. He was brilliant.

                                  Damien swallowed hard, in spite of the fact that his mouth was suddenly as dry as a desert. He looked into Marina's eyes, staring deep, like he was trying read her mind, see her soul. He felt the same way, as strange as that seemed. He wouldn't go back, wouldn't change what happened, because as miserable as he'd been for the first couple of years after... it was worth it, to be as happy as he was now. He blushed a bit. This was it. This was the moment. It wouldn't ever feel more right than it did right now. But... he hadn't had time with her, not enough to know. This would be a big step, a huge step. What if... what if she wasn't ready for it? He swallowed again, trying to block out the voice of doubt in his mind. Because he was right. This was it. "Marina... I know, I know that... um... I mean, what happened on the train... it... it was the first step for... for this. But... I mean, we didn't... we didn't really talk about anything, about where we really stand. About this. So, I'm... I'm talking about it now. I... This is a big deal, Marina. I... My parents will be furious. My father... I don't know what he'll do. He might cut me off, he might disown me, kick me out. My mother... I don't even want to think about it. But... but..." He slid the ring off his finger. It was enchanted to resize itself to fit any finger, would look beautiful on her if she said yes. God, how he wanted her to say yes. He blushed furiously as he held it up for her to see, staring straight into her eyes, watching her face for some hint of her reaction. "This... this is my family ring. I... I want you to wear it. I... I mean, it's not a marriage proposal or anything, but... it... it would mean that... that we were exclusive. Not that I think we're not, but... I mean, it's tradition, and I wouldn't... I wouldn't feel like it was official without it." He swallowed once more, his resolve hardening. No turning back now, his logical side said. He'd already essentially said what he meant, so he might as well be straight with her. His eyes hardened, and his lips drew tight, with fear and with excitement. This was the final step, at least for now. This would be the action that could ruin him for his family... and free him from their chains. "Marina Aldred, will you be my girlfriend?" He was still blushing, sweating a little, and his entire life felt like it hung in the balance. She'd say yes, wouldn't she? She had to say yes... She had to!

Do you CARE about ME?
Do you THINK I don't BLEED?
Why are you trying to HIDE behind a stupid LIE
When the TRUTH is your EYES
Have you LOST YOURSELF?
Always TRYING to SELL
The PERSON that you THINK you are
You stay ALONE 'cause real's just too HARD

You say you'll never go that far: Hopeful| But you're not who you say you are: Aw, he's all agitated... | Your time is up in too many places: Damien| You've got too many faces: Library|


Marina had the sudden premonition that Damien was about to say something very important. She recognized the look in his eyes. It was the same one he'd had on the train. He was blushing again as well. She had a feeling about what he might say, but didn't want to jump to any conclusions. She watched wordlessly as he spoke and then slid his family ring off his finger. Oh God. Oh Merlin. He really wanted to do this. Not that she'd thought he hadn't been serious. But it was one thing to flirt with and kiss someone. It was one thing to have a crush. It was another to actually enter a committed relationship. Was she ready? Yes. If she hadn't been from the start she would have told him. He'd made it clear he no longer cared what his family thought, and though she felt slightly guilty knowing she was the cause, what she was feeling for him completely overpowered that. Her family, on the other hand... would get over it. They'd be shocked, and probably want to interrogate him, but they'd accept him. Eventually. Marina took the ring, and without hesitating or looking away, put it on her own finger. "Yes. I will be your girlfriend." she replied, blushed, and then immediately kissed him to hide it. The library suddenly had one more reason to be her favorite place.


You've got your HEART in too many PLACES


Always LAYING the BLAME
You're never ONE and the SAME
Could it be that you're AFRAID to look INSIDE
And find you'll NEVER get it RIGHT
So many SIDES to YOU
Nobody KNOWS the TRUTH
How you EVER gonna keep it STRAIGHT?
Do you WANNA be a MEMORY?

                                  Damien's shoulders sagged with relief when he saw the determination in her eyes. He'd been nervous for nothing; she hadn't hesitated a second. Had taken the ring and placed it on her own finger. Not the way he'd have liked it, really, but he supposed the ring itself was enough, and perhaps him sliding it on her finger would be too much like a real proposal. They weren't quite there, he thought, a bit of humor lighting his eyes. He imagined how insane that would have been, an outright marriage proposal in the library. When she leaned in and kissed him, he caught the briefest glance of her blush. He closed his eyes then, his lips smiling against hers. She was so pretty when she blushed. And smiled. And did anything, really. He kissed her back, adrenaline thrumming through his veins. He could hardly believe he was here, with her in his arms. This would have seemed so insane to him when she'd first kissed him last year. But here he was. And... it was perfect. He kissed her back, still smiling. Things were going to get bad for them, he was sure, as soon as the wrong person saw his ring on her hand. But he couldn't make himself care. He was too happy, too content, in this moment, to trade it for anything, even the simplicity of leading the life his father had laid down for him. So simple... but so sad. This was better by far.
