The walk around the grounds(Israel)

[Squall]

Dean Thomas was last to wake-up inthe boys dormitories. He was awaken by a cool air blowing through the window by his four poster bed. He got up slowly as he was still drowsy. He got dressed and grabbed his wand. Then he made his way into the common-room.

As he entered the common-room he saw that it looked like a ghost town. He saw a ad up for Weasleys Wizard Wheezes on the bulletin board. He then left the common-room to go to the Great Hall. As he reached the Great Hall he saw a lone Gryffindor at their table ,so he sat down and started to eat. He was starving and had'nt known it til the food had touched his mouth. He was wolfing down his food and when he was done he went outside.

When he left the castle and stepped onto the grounds he noticed it was sunny and a little breezy. Then he saw Israel Moon walking his way ,so he said "Hi ,how are you?"

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel got up very late, she had only returned to Hogwarts the night before, she had not been tired at the time, but now she was exhausted. She got up, her wavy dark brown hair was hanging in tendrils around her face, but most was still held back by a rather rushed ponytail, and walked to the mirror. “Oh my Israel you do look a fright,” she said to herself as the dorm was completely empty, everyone was at classes, she pulled out the wrap she had in her hair, grabbed a brush and went to work, in a few minutes her hair was perfect. Israel slipped on a robe and some slippers and went into the common room; she did not have a class schedule so she was free for the rest of the day until she met up with Professor Dumbledore later that afternoon.

She flopped down in an armchair, but she was soon restless and hungry, her chocolate binge had not affected her appetite. She got up and ran to the stair, taking them two at a time, she pushed open the dorm room door and began to open her bangs in search of her robes and a towel, she faun them both. As soon as she had found them she was out the door and to the showers, fifteen minutes alter she was back and in excellent condition too, her robes were flawlessly pressed and shoes shone as though they had just been shined. She looked at herself in the mirror, and then put her hair up in a half bun at the top and left the bottom open, afterwards she headed to the Great Hall and some breakfast.

Israel had a sumptuous breakfast, pancakes and sausages, orange juice and two muffins, one blueberry the other poppy seed. She left her plate and glass once she was through and headed outside or some fresh air. Israel had been walking for the best part of half an hour when she heard someone address her, she looked in their direction, “How can I help you Thomas?” she said calling Dean by his last name, “I’m great thanks. Yourself?” Unlike most Slytherins Israel had found the people form other houses had their usefulness, or she found ways of making them useful, but there were some she genuinely loathed, Potter, Weasley and Granger of course, the goody goodies.

[Squall]

Dean replied " Me I'm doing fine." he disliked it when people called him by his last name but for some reason he did'nt mind her calling him Thomas. So he said " You know seeing as we have the day off would you like to take a walk with me? I mean it's okay if you don't ,but I'm just asking."

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel smirked as Dean asked her to take a walk, she loved it when boys went all weird around her, and she had to give him props for actually asking not many outside her house would be so brave. Israel walked around Dean looking at him, “Why would I want to do that?” she asked coolly, but knowing full well she was going to do it. After a few seconds of silence she spoke again, “Fine, I’ll join you but for only a little while I have to meet Dumbledore later on.”<br>
Israel began to walk with Dean, she had enjoyed many days of tormenting his classmates, Longbottom, Granger, Potter and Weasley to name a few, but there were more of course. Israel was especially crafted I what she did, she was intelligent, very intelligent, so much so in fact that her father wanted to leave her his multi-billion galleon company, unbeknownst to her. Israel was not what most would call nice, but she was one of the nicer girls in Slytherin, and only really went after those she truly hated or those who got on her nerves, there was of course the odd time when she was in a bad mood and took it out on the next person, non Slytherin she saw.

“So where are we off to Thomas?” she asked in her silken voice.

[Squall]

Dean replied " Lets see, how about the Quidditch Pitch ,or the big berch way over there ,or the green houses. Oh and there is always the Astronomy tower." in his best confident voice. He then said " So which one would you like to go to ,hmm?" in a polite voice.

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel pondered the choices Dean had proposed to her, the quidditch pitch or astronomy tower, the big birch or the greenhouses, which one? Israel was not a fan of the smelly greenhouses, so that was definitely out, she was not about standing around a tree all day either, so that left the astronomy tower and the quidditch pitch. Israel tucked a strand of dark hair behind her ear, “How about the astronomy tower? That sounds good.” She noted the polite tone in which Dean was speaking to her, she eyed him suspiciously, but let it pass.

Israel turned on her heels and began to walk towards the castle; she looked over her right shoulder and flashed Dean a big bright smile, “Coming?” she then turned back and continued walking, in her so familiar gait.

[Squall]

Dean flashed her a grin and said " Yeah I'm coming." As they were walking he said " So what have you been up to? I've been having fun getting accepted onto the Gryffindor Quidditch team and being in duels against other people and my new Firebolt will come in handy in Quidditch." he said all this in a polite and excited voice. He then said " Say whats your faviorite class?"

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel didn’t look around to see if Dean was coming or not, she simply heard is reply and continued on to the castle letting him catch up. He began to ask her what she had been up to, and didn’t even allow her to reply before he rattled out the events that had occurred to him. Israel listened in callous attention until he was done, “Oh that sounds fascinating,” she said in a nonchalant manner, “Oh I hear that there is a duelling club now, fantastic, I can’t wait for that,” she said in a more upbeat tone.

They were closing in on the castle now, only a few feet away when Dean enquired as to what her favourite subject was, she scoffed, “My favourite subject? Now really Thomas you know you don’t care what my favourite subject is,” she stopped walking and looked at him with her devilish brown eyes, “Why did you ask me to accompany you?” she placed a delicate hand on her right hip, “But if you must know, my favourite subject is Defence Against the Dark Arts and of course Potions.” Israel did not ask Dean what was his.

The wind was picking up and her hair was blowing a little more wildly now, she just stared at Dean, “Well Thomas? Why did you ask me?” Israel still had every intention of going with him, but she wanted to know why first.

[Squall]

He said "Umm because , you are fun to be around and you're cool." hoping she did'nt now he had a crush on her. As he started walking again he saw that they had reached the Astronomy tower. So he opend the door to the staircase and sadi "Ladies first." in a authentic voice. And they reached the top he said "Wow ,what a wonderful view." not really looking up but at Israel."What do you think?"

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel looked at Dean, she was ‘fun to be around and cool,’ Israel was shocked, she could understand her fellow Slytherins seeing her that way, but to others she was just the rich Slytherin girl who was best friends with Saski Stark and Pansy Parkinson, and nearly everyone feared Saski and Pansy. Israel didn’t say a word, she just turned and continued to walk, soon they had arrived at the Astronomy tower, she walked up the stairs, Dean having opened the door for her, such an act would usually call for a thank you, but not Israel, she only said such things to her friends, and even that was a rare thing.

After a few minutes of climbing, they reached the top, Israel now remembered why she had hated Astronomy, the awfully long walk just to get to the room. She looked around, the telescopes were still out and notes were still on some of the desks. Israel looked around outside, it was an unbelievable sight indeed, you could see Hogsmeade from that high, she smirked as she saw one of her fellow Slytherins running off with what looked like to be parchment belonging to a Gryffindor boy, he was young the Gryffindor maybe in first or second year. “Yes, it’s okay I suppose,” she said keeping to her reputable attitude and not letting on how breath-taking the view really was, then she got the sense that Dean was not looking outside but at her.

Israel turned and looked at Dean, she smiled slightly, she new that look, she had gotten it from boys before, this was when she would usually turn on the charm. She sat on a nearby chair and crossed her legs, “So here were are. What do you want to talk about?”

[Squall]

Dean went over to the edge and looked down he saw a Slytherin running away with one of his fellow Gryffindors parchment. He pulled out his wand under his robe and pointed down he said "Flippendo" in a whisper. He then said " Uhh how about family. Whats your family like?"

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel looked at Dean, what was he trying to do, save the Gryffindor? How silly, just let it go, it was not his affair anyways, nor was it hers. Israel looked at Dean, “family?” why had he chosen that topic? The last thing Israel felt like discussing was the state of her functioning dysfunctional family. Israel’s family was not what most would call normal, her parents were divorced, normal enough, but the rest wasn’t. Israel’s father was married to a woman, only six years Israel’s senior and the same age as her sister Nairobi…disgusting, in her opinion.

Israel’s mother on the other hand was another story, she was a vibrant, photographer for a witch clothing line and had a steady boyfriend her own age, and something her daughters could live with. Life was not easy when you have spent the last nine years of your lie almost, jumping from one home in England to another, wherever your mother decided she felt she should be. Though her father was what some might call “stable” he was the one that the girls disliked, because of his constant philandering at first, and then when he finally settled down. No; Israel did not want to talk about her family.

“My family is fine. How about your’s?”<br>

[Squall]

Dean said " My family is great. I'm going to be a big brother at the end of the year. My mom is awesome she is a female soccer player. My dad is cool ,he can fix almost anything he took a small muggle studies class and thought it might be useful to learn more about them." He then said "So what do you want to talk about?"

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel looked at Dean with a fake smile; she was not in the least bit interested in him becoming a big brother, or his mother the athlete or his father, who seemed to have no occupation. Israel was the last of four and she had learn it was always better to be the baby, Dean would learn this once the child was born and suddenly he was inconsequential compared to every time that baby cried. “Oh well he’ll find out” she thought to herself. “Why would it be useful to learn about muggle artefacts?” Israel asked calmly. “I think this conversation is fine, unless there is something in particular you wish to discuss?”

[Squall]

Dean was startled so he said " How about hmm ralationships.?" He mentally kicked himsel and scowled. Why did he have to go red now ,why?

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel laughed heartily as Dean said he wished to discuss relationships, he was red, “What exactly about relationships did you have in mind? How to get into them? How to get out of them? What it is like to be in one? Am I in one?” she smirked, “Tell me what do you want to know?” Israel was finding this turn in events rather amusing, as she always did.

Israel was used to behaviour like Dean’s but she had not met someone who was so bold as to bring the subject up just like that, but it had been a task for him, as his now red face told. Israel was not involved at the moment, she had met someone while she was on holiday but that had been just for then, as they both had known, and so it had not been serious, as some would call it. She looked at Dean intently.

[Squall]

Dean said " Are you ,umm" he gulped "seeing somebody?" He was turning red and he knew it. His face was very warm and he saw that she was looking at him with amusement. He said to himself "man now she thinks I'm a complete idiot."

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel smiled at Dean, “Why do you want to know Thomas?” she knew full well why he was asking, but she wanted to make him sweat a little, to actually say it himself. Israel stood and walked back over to the window, people were still mulling about on the grounds and she had the temptation to just flick a spell at someone just for a laugh, but she would wait till later, right now she was dealing with Dean Thomas, “Mr. Are You Seeing Somebody.”

[Squall]

Dean looked over at Israel and said " Uhh, " and he almost started babbling ,but kept himself together" because..." but he could'nt get the words to come out. So gathering all his courage he said " Well because I l-l-like y-y-you." there he said it and he felt good that he had got that out of his system. And so he waited for her answer.

[Israel Moon S7]

Israel looked at Dean and laughed a little, “You like me? A Gryffindor liking a Slytherin, that is a new one I must say.” This was an interesting development indeed, though Israel had suspected it, the only question was how was she going to use this. Israel had her eye on the prize always and Dean was not it. “You don’t even know me Thomas. How can you possibly like me?” Israel stood, “I am a Slytherin as you well know and you know what we give, so what is it that you like about me?” she was thinking the situation through in her head and was trying to decided where to go with it.
