One. Two. Three. Look at Me! ((Danielle))

[Sierra Greene S6]

Sierra tossed her bag on her bed with a loud sigh. "I hate homework!" she squealed as she crossed her arms across her chest and fell back onto the bed. She let out a small yelp as she felt her head his something solid, where her pillow should have been. Angry at first, she turned to see that there was a package laying there. It was wrapped in red paper, and there was a small slip of paper tied to it. "To Sierra. Love Mom and Dad," she read aloud. Her face lit up instantly. It must have been from their latest trip. Where were they now? France? Italy? They travelled so much that Sierra lost track. It didn't matter though as she ripped into the package.

Underneath the paper, Sierra found a small white box. Too small for clothes, but perfect for jewelery, she thought, as she opened it up excitedly. Inside was a white gold linked chain. At the bottom dangled a beautiful black gemstone. She happily pulled the necklace from its package and held it to her neck while running over to her mirror. Her smile widened as she eyed the magnificent piece of jewelery. Now, she just had to show it off.

Quickly, Sierra pulled off her class robes and pulled a jean-jacket over top of her white t-shirt. She slipped on her black shoes, and tied her hair up to make it easier to see the necklace. With one last glance in the mirror, she walked out of her room and through the dungeons to the main hall. All the while, she seareched for someone to show off her new gift to.

As she walked happily down the halls, she heard some footsteps from around the next corner. Excited, she rushed to see who it was. "Oh, hey Danielle," she said to a girl she recognized from her year. She was a Gryff, Sierra remembered, and the two had never really talked before. But that didn't matter now. Sierra just wanted someone to see her necklace. "What do you think?" she asked, as she smiled brightly and did a little turn like the models did. "Don't you wish you could have such a beautiful necklace?" she asked, almost arrogantly.

"Let's see what I have here." Danielle said taking a seat on her bed. She opened up her book bag and peered inside. "Looks like one report and...nothing else. Awesome!" Smiling slightly she pulled the report out of her book bag studied it. Do I have good luck or what? She thought. I only need like four more sentences. Maybe I can walk around and get something to eat before I finish it. Yes, a walk was just what Danielle needed after a long day at school she decided. Jumping up she went to the foot of her bed where her trunk was currently located. She rummaged around a while before finally pulling out a pair of pants, a blue t-shirt and a gray pull over hoodie for warmth. After combing her hair and putting it into pigtails she went down the stairs slowly, so she wouldn't trip. Making it safely into the common room Danielle bolted for the portrait hole.

Smiling with happiness Danielle walked slowly down the stairs and through the corridors until she was almost at the main hallway. She glanced at the walls, staring at the pictures that smiled and waved at her and returning the gesture. As Danielle turned the corner she heard footsteps. Apparently the person heard her too because just two seconds later their footsteps quickened. Please don't be a Slytherin, she prayed. Danielle got ready to run, just in case.

"Oh, hey Danielle." The person said. It was a girl who, Danielle remembered, was a Sytherin. Luckily though she was nice to her, Danielle relaxed visibly. "Hey Sierra." She said, automatically noticing the necklace she was wearing. Sierra turned around doing one of those turns like models do on the catwalk. Then asked, "Don't you wish you could have such a beautiful necklace?" Danielle panicked, what was she supposed to say!? If she said yes, then Sierra could say something like 'Oh well, too bad you can't afford one.' But if Danielle said no then she could be offending her. "Um..." Danielle looked around anxiously. "Actually I wouldn't. See, it looks absolutely fantastic on you but the thing is black just is not my color. I'm more of a blue or red person."

Sierra raised her eyebrow at Danielle's comment. How could she not want such a beautiful piece of jewelery. Sierra shrugged. Oh well, I guess she just doesn't appreciate a fine taste in style, Sierra thought to herself. "Definitely red," Sierra added, "Blue would clash too much with your dark hair. "I guess that's why this black necklace looks so amazing on me though- it is the perfect contrast to my lovely golden color of hair," she said with a smile, taking her fingers and running them through the part of her hair that was tied back.

"So whatcha' up to?" she asked in a somewhat bored voice. "I just got back from class to find this awesome gift from my parents- just had to come find someone to show, ya' know?" Sierra skipped forward a bit. It was funny how her mood could be altered so drastically with such simple things as a gift. That explained why she loved buying new clothes when she was in a grumpy mood.

((Sorry it's short. I figured that maybe Danielle would have an idea of something to do besides simply walking the halls. Also, sorry for the delay. ))

"Definitely red." Sierra said to her. Danielle nodded politely but soon lost interest after that. Why would she want to talk about that kind of stuff? It wasn't as if she cared what looked good on her. When it came to clothing and jewelry Danielle had one rule: if you like it, wear it. Unless of course it was too short or showed too much skin, then that rule was canceled out. That's the bad thing about older brothers, they're too overprotective! She thought, shaking her head a bit not only at her brothers but also to snap back into reality.

"Me? Nothing much, just going for a walk. I think I might head out to the lake, you know to relax and stuff. Do you want to come?" Danielle replied looking at the older girl. She glanced at a picture beside her and waved before returning her attention to Sierra.

((Really sorry it's so short, my brains half asleep!))
