I was reading my Psychology book, and I happened to come across this little paragraph.

I would just like to point out that they are sleeping in the same tent.

Even my Psychology book ships Sherlock and Watson.

ooc: watching Bertie Gilbert videos and all i can think about is that post where someone pointed out he looks like a combination of Dan & Tom - Bertie of course plays Scorpius and so has been dubbed Drarry’s lovechild ;) xx

Bella saw his eyes light up when she complimented him. “He is too adorable,” she thought. Her mind was fucking with her again. “Anytime, really. You deserve to know how how good your writing is. I’m glad you found your passion. I do like reading, but it’s not my passion. It’s just a pastime. My passion is… Um, I’m still searching for it. I’ve done a little bit of writing, but I threw it all away. It’s terrible. I love to write though, but it’s not my calling.” Bella thought for a moment. What was her passion?

“I’m sure you’re not as bad as you think,” Leo responded with a chuckle, taking a large gulp out of his Butterbeer and tossing her another wink. He sighed, sat still for a moment, then stood up and stretched his arms above his head. “Well, it’s getting late. I wanna get you back to the castle before it gets dark, and before it gets too cold.” He said, grabbing his bag of candy and then finishing the rest of his drink off. “Are you ready?”

“Thanks.” She smiled at him. “I’m not afraid of the dark,” she said teasingly. “But okay, sounds good.” She got up and stood next to him. They starting walking back to the castle. She looked around. Hogsmeade was beautiful at night. She looked at Leo, trying to think of something to talk about. She looked down and saw his hand, almost touching hers. Should she…? She refused to finish the thought and looked forward again.

ooc: Everyone,

Tomorrow I will be going to Costa Rica for 2 weeks, coming back on July 10th. I’m going to build houses in remote places of the country, so I’ll try to post when I can, but I doubt that they will have Internet. So, whoever I’m RPing with at the moment, I’m sorry that I won’t be able to reply :(. Lol, omg, I’m going to be so behind. So yeah, I just wanted to tell everyone that I won’t be here for 2 weeks. I’m going to miss you guys, lol. :)

This is my other account, so yeah. Same thing as that ^, lol.

“Really? I wouldn’t want to be a bother,” said Isabella, being shy as always. She had never been invited to go anywhere with anyone before. Leo took out a box of Lick’O’Rish spiders. She watched as one crawled around the table. “You’re a writer? That’s wicked!” He took out his notebook and offered it to her. “You don’t mind me reading them?” She accepted the notebook, handling it delicately. She read every single entry in there. Being an extremely fast reader, it didn’t take her very long. She looked at Leo intently. “Leo, these are absolutely fantastic.” He began to interject, but she held up her hand. “Do not try to deny it. You are an incredibly gifted writer, and don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise.” She grinned at him. “I mean it.”

“It wouldn’t be a bother. I go all the time anyway, and it’d be nice to have company,” Leo replied with a nod of his head. He popped the spider into his mouth as she began reading, curious as to whether or not she liked his writing. He didn’t often show people his writing; most people didn’t really want to read it, anyway. But as she began speaking again, his eyes lit up in surprise. “Really?..Thank you, Bella. That means a lot…Writing’s my passion.” He said, taking the notebook back, shrinking it, and sliding it into his pocket. “You really like reading though, right? Do you do any writing yourself?”

Bella saw his eyes light up when she complimented him. “He is too adorable,” she thought. Her mind was fucking with her again. “Anytime, really. You deserve to know how how good your writing is. I’m glad you found your passion. I do like reading, but it’s not my passion. It’s just a pastime. My passion is… Um, I’m still searching for it.

“I’ve come to terms with it, really. A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a masterpiece.” She smiled. She had never had anyone to discuss this with, she loved hearing someone else’s opinion. Leo ordered another Butterbeer, but Bella was still finishing hers. “No, I’ve always wanted to see it, though. When I read it, I envision it being acted out, but that’s the closest I’ve come. Oh, I’m sure it was. I’m so envious of you!” She laughed. “How is it possible that a simple muggle could of written something so, magical. If you get what I mean. Not magical in the spells sense, but in the way it makes people feel sense. I wish I could have that type of talent.”

“This little theater where I live puts shows on every summer. If you’re not busy over the summer, I’d be glad to take you to one,” Leo replied, sipping his butterbeer and leaning back once more against his seat. He reached into his bag and pulled out the box of Lick’O’Rish spiders, took one out, and watched as it crawled around on the table in front of them.”And I know, Shakespeare’s truly a genius. I’m a bit of a writer, myself, but I doubt I could ever master it like he did,”He added, taking his notebook out and enlarging it again.”You can read some of my things, if you like…They’re just short stories…poems…Nothing that great,”He said, passing the book over to her.

“Really? I wouldn’t want to be a bother,” said Isabella, being shy as always. She had never been invited to go anywhere with anyone before. Leo took out a box of Lick’O’Rish spiders.

When she mentioned Shakespeare, she saw Leo perk up. “I don’t like Shakespeare, I love Shakespeare.” He leaned forward on the table, propping himself up by his elbows. “It’s just so difficult to pick a favorite, but if I have to pick, my favorite is Romeo and Juliet. I can just… relate to it. I’ve never fallen in love, but I know what it’s like to have family rivalries. That’s why I’m so shy. When I was younger, my best friend was from the family that was the rival to mine. We had to pretend to hate eachother. Eventually, our parents found out, and erased all of her memories of me. I don’t know why they left me with mine, but they did. I’m terrified to make friends or cast spells, because I don’t want to lose any other friends or have their memories erased.” She took a deep breath, that was the first time she had told anyone her story. “What’s your favorite?” She was glad that she could talk to Leo, she trusted him.

“How tragic,” Leo murmured after she’d told about what had happened to her and her best friend.”I do love Romeo and Juliet,”He said,”But I believe my favorite is A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”He said, grinning. The waiter came round again to take the finished pie tray, and Leo ordered himself another Butterbeer before looking back at Bella.”Have you seen any of the plays put on by muggles?”He asked.”I saw Much Ado About Nothing about two summers ago. Brilliant, really,”He said.

“I’ve come to terms with it, really. A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a masterpiece.” She smiled. She had never had anyone to discuss this with, she loved hearing someone else’s opinion. Leo ordered another Butterbeer, but Bella was still finishing hers. “No, I’ve always wanted to see it, though. When I read it, I envision it being acted out, but that’s the closest I’ve come.

“Are you sure?” She gratefully accepted Hoppy. He was very sweet and tasty. Leo gestured to his bag to show how much candy he had. “You’re set for life with all that candy,” Bella joked. “Okay, I apologize for my cheesiness.” Leo asked her a question that she had been expecting all day. “I was waiting for you to ask me that. I most likely would of read. I was almost done with the Influencial Muggle book, so I probably would of read some Shakespeare. After that, I would of rewritten my Potions essay, just to make sure it’s perfect.” She thought for a moment. “I would of sat by the lake, and watched everyone around me having fun. I would of imagined myself being a part of their fun. I would of studied spells, but never cast them. Nothing really exciting.” She looked at Leo, waiting for his reaction.

Leo really had wanted to listen to what she was saying. But at the mention of Shakespeare, everything else sort of just went in one ear and out the other.”You like Shakespeare?”He asked, leaning forward on the table, his elbows holding him up as he looked at her.”I don’t really enjoy reading all that much but quite honestly I love Shakespeare. What’s your favorite of his?”He asked, never having met another student who seemed to like the muggle as much as he did.

When she mentioned Shakespeare, she saw Leo perk up. “I don’t like Shakespeare, I love Shakespeare.” He leaned forward on the table, propping himself up by his elbows. “It’s just so difficult to pick a favorite, but if I have to pick, my favorite is Romeo and Juliet.

Leo shook his head, digging into some more of the pie.”That’s all right, I’d feel bad if I thought you were going to get into any trouble,” He said, then poked at Hoppy.”Do you want the rest? You did name him, after all,”He said, chuckling and holding the frog out to the girl.”I’ve got about 3 others, so it’s no problem.” He added, gesturing towards his bag. He also had some Lick’O’Rish spiders and more bonbons, so he was all set for the rest of the day.”So if you don’t mind me asking…What would you be doing if I hadn’t gone up to you?”He asked, purely out of curiosity.

“Are you sure?” She gratefully accepted Hoppy. He was very sweet and tasty. Leo gestured to his bag to show how much candy he had. “You’re set for life with all that candy,” Bella joked. “Okay, I apologize for my cheesiness.” Leo asked her a question that she had been expecting all day. “I was waiting for you to ask me that.

Leo recited a spell, and the frog went still. When he promised that he wouldn’t make fun of her, her view of him changed. She got butterflies in her stomach. She had never felt this feeling before, and she became confused. Leo ate one of Hoppy’s legs. She reached over and took the other. “Hoppy’s good,” she said with a giggle. The waiter arrived with the pie. She took a bite. “This is the most amazing pie I’ve ever had. This pie should be put on a pedestal. Wait, that sounds really corny.” She smiled at Leo, and the butterflies came back. What is happening?

“Indeed. Chocolate frogs are my favorite,” Leo replied. “However, I do agree that Hoppy is just slightly sweeter than ones I’ve had in the past,”He added with a wink, chuckling and breaking off the frog’s head. He began eating the pie as well, and he nodded eagerly with Bella’s words.”No, no, I agree. This pie should be the king of all pies. Honestly. It’s better than my mum’s pie, and my mum is an amazing baker,”He said, scooping some of the pastry into his mouth with a grin. The boy had no idea that the girl was beginning to get the butterflies.”After this, I think we should head back to the castle,”He said. “It’s going to get dark soon, and I don’t want to get you into trouble with the prefects or anything.” He really had no problem getting in trouble himself, but the fact that this was the girl’s first time getting Butterbeer and the fact that she didn’t do magic made him think she wasn’t one who got in trouble often.

Leo winked at her, and the butterflies in her stomach started fluttering even faster. “Shit,” she thought to herself. “That must be so cool, having your mum bake for you,” she said absent-mindedly. “Yeah, I guess we could head back,” she said nonchalantly. She looked at him. “I don’t really have to worry about getting into trouble.” As it turns out, the prefects felt badly for Bella. They saw how lonely she was, which led to them allowing her to do whatever she pleased. It didn’t make her loneliness worth it, though.

Leo looked at the chocolate frog and nodded his head.”Hoppy it is. Immobulus,”He said, and the frog...

Leo looked at the chocolate frog and nodded his head.”Hoppy it is. Immobulus,”He said, and the frog sat still. He set it down on the table and was about to make some witty joke about frogs and chocolate when she spoke again.”Of course I won’t make fun of you,”He said, softening his voice as she continued. He was quite surprised at what she said. But instead of asking why, or how that was possible, he smiled and nodded his head.”Well what an honor that is.” He broke one of Hoppy’s legs off and bit in, and then a waiter came with their pie.”To our friendship then. Let’s dig in. This pie is delicious.” He said, smiling and handing her a fork from the waiter. He intended on making sure that this girl made more friends, and by spending time with him, she was sure to do that.

Leo recited a spell, and the frog went still. When he promised that he wouldn’t make fun of her, her view of him changed. She got butterflies in her stomach. She had never felt this feeling before, and she became confused. Leo ate one of Hoppy’s legs. She reached over and took the other. “Hoppy’s good,” she said with a giggle.

She sighed. “You caught me.” He leaned over to her, and her breath caught. He wiped the Butterbeer off her lip. Her hands flew up to her mouth. “Oh! How embarrassing!” She took another sip, careful to make sure that all of the Butterbeer was off her lip. She looked at Leo, except this time, she really studied him. She didn’t realize how handsome he was before. “Oh, huh?” She said, his voice interrupting her thought. “Yes. I’m having the most amount of fun that I’ve had in… years, to be honest,” she paused, “And I have you to thank for that.”

Leo chuckled, thinking that the girl in front of him really was quite cute.”Happens to everyone,”He said with a small shrug of his shoulders. He reached into his bag of sweets and opened up a chocolate frog…Only to have it escape from his grasp and hop onto Bella’s lap.”Sorry about that. Could you catch him?”He asked, hoping the frog wouldn’t leap away. At her statement, his grin broadened and he shrugged his shoulders again.”It’s nothing. Though I am quite glad we’ve met.”He said.

“I guess.” Leo reached into his candy bag and pulled out a chocolate frog. It slipped from his hand and landed on her lap. “Don’t worry about it! Sure, I can.” She caught it with ease. Bella gently handed it back to Leo. She looked at him. “Even though you’re going to eat him… Can we name him? How about Hoppy?” She smiled. “I’m quite glad we’ve met too. If I tell you something, do you promise not to make fun of me?” He nodded. She took a deep breath. “You’re my first friend,” she whispered, admitting it to him, and to herself.

She watched Leo eat the exploding bonbons. “Well, they do look like fun…” She accepted one. She started giggling as one exploded in her mouth. “I like these! They’re so fun!” Bella had a huge grin on her face. Their drinks soon arrived. Leo picked up his mug of Butterbeer, and Bella did the same. They clinked their mugs. “To magic,” she echoed. She daintily picked up her glass and took a small sip. “This. Is. Amazing.” She took a huge gulp. “Oh, excuse me,” she said. She didn’t notice that she had Butterbeer on her lip.

“This your first time having a Butterbeer?” Leo asked, taking a sip from his own. He grinned at her, reaching forward to wipe off some of the drink that remained on her lip.”You’ve got something there,”He said as he did so, then leaned back against his own seat. He stared down at his own drink before taking another bonbon, eyeing the girl as she drank. She was a 7th year, and this was the first time she’d done a spell and had a Butterbeer. Well, it was a good thing she’d met Leo then, wasn’t it? “You having fun?”He asked, sipping his drink again, though he continued looking at her.

She sighed. “You caught me.” He leaned over to her, and her breath caught. He wiped the Butterbeer off her lip. Her hands flew up to her mouth. “Oh! How embarrassing!” She took another sip, careful to make sure that all of the Butterbeer was off her lip. She looked at Leo, except this time, she really studied him.
