Cedric walked down the hall going to a room Evelyn had asked him to go to. As he walked down the hall he wondered what she had wanted him for. He turned down on of the halls and saw Mrs. Norris walking around. "Go away." Cedric spat. "Im just walking."
When Cedric got to the room Evelyn had asked him to come to Cedric turned the door knob and walked in. "Hi Evelyn." Cedric said siting down on the couch next to her.

((OOC: Not to be rude but you should try to make your posts a little longer.))
Cedric looked at Evelyn curiously. "Ooook" Cedric said nervously. Why would she ask me to meet her in a room to get to know me? Cedric thought. Why doesn't she just talk to me in the hall or something? Well maybe she wants to be alone. Why would she want to be alone? I don't know. Hey why don't I stop fighting with my self. Cedric thought. He was having an argument in his head great now he was going crazy.

"I just do not like to speak in pubic that is all, so do you have any question for me?" Evelyn said in a simple manner, then she started to think that she might be scaring him and she did not want that.

Cedric looked at Evelyn with a confused/scared look on his face. When she asked him if he had any questions Cedric looked at her in confusion. Well this is odd Cedric thought as he slowly moved as far away from Evelyn without trying to be obvious about it. "Well" Cedric said "Umm where do you live?" Cedric asked not being able to think of what else to ask.
Cedric sat and looked at Evelyn still puzzled about her unorthadoxed way of getting to know someone. Cedric stuck his hands in his pockets in a normal manner. Ussualy Cedric would stick his hands in his pockets when he had nothing to do with them but in this occasion he had stuck them there and put a tight grip on his wand. He was not posotive she would attack him but now would be the perfect time for a Gryffindor ambush and Cedric would be ready for it.

Cedric looked at her and said "Relaxed. Im relaxed.". Even though Cedric said that he still had a grip on his wand. "You never answered my question." Cedric said starting to calm down a little.

Cedric sat there not understanding what two of those sports where. Then Cedric remembered one time his uncle was watching muggle football. "Football is when you kick that round ball into a box with a net right?" Cedric asked. "I don't know what Hackie sack is though" Cedric said looking confused.

"Well in the states," in an informative voice, "football is played with an oval yet oblong ball made of boar skin, only 11 men are alound on your team on the field at once, so that makes 22 in all,the field is setup by the sidelines and end lines being out of bounds. The goal line is actually in the end zone. A player with the ball in his possession scores a touchdown when the ball is on, above, or over the goal line. The field is rimmed by a white border, six feet wide, along the sidelines. All of this is out of bounds. The hashmarks (inbound lines) are 70 feet, 9 inches from each sideline. Goal posts must be single-standard type, offset from the end line and painted bright gold. The goal posts must be 18 feet, 6 inches wide and the top face of the crossbar must be 10 feet above the ground. Vertical posts extend at least 30 feet above the crossbar. A ribbon 4 inches by 42 inches long is to be attached to the top of each post. The actual goal is the plane extending indefinitely above the crossbar and between the outer edges of the posts. The field is 360 feet long and 160 feet wide. The end zones are 30 feet deep. The line used in try-for-point plays is two yards out from the goal line. Chain crew members and ball boys must be uniformly identifiable. All clubs must use standardized sideline markers. Pylons must be used for goal line and end line markings. End zone markings and club identification at 50 yard line must be approved by the Commissioner to avoid any confusion as to delineation of goal lines, sidelines, and end lines. There are many positions in foot ball and many rules also, the main object of the game is to get the football across the field and make a touch down. You must tackle one another to keep the other team from getting your man with the ball.Sidelines and end lines are out of bounds. The goal line is actually in the end zone. A player with the ball in his possession scores a touchdown when the ball is on, above, or over the goal line."
Evelyn took a deep breath, since she was getting bored of explaining.
"Hackie sack, on the other hand, is not as hard to understand it is quite easy, you start with a ball either made of weaved fabric, or leather, filled with beans, plastic disks wich are very small, dirt, or sand. I have one that is leather with sand, that is the best you can get, since leather will last the longest and the sand makes the ball hurt when you are hit." Evelyn grinned devilishy, "The object of the game is to hit the ball with your foot, absolutly no hands are aloud, you can stall it or what I might say as keeping at one point of the body for a moment, example is that, say my hack was comming down and I cought it in between my fore arm and back are, that would be a stall, ONLY, if I dropped it and hit it after holding there for a moment. One rule of the game is no black holes. Black holes occur when you have one foot against your other leg and the ball goes through that hole made by your leg. You get to be hit or punched in the shoulder by every player also called walking the circle, since you are in the form of a circle, so you walk it to get hit. A hack is when everyone in the circle has hit the hackie at least once. The most popular game with my friends is GOD, we set a hitting range such as 5, ours is usually 3 or 5, then if the hackie get hit five times, it does not matter who would hit it or how many people did, you try ad grab it after hit number five and who ever catches it, gets to throw it at some one REALLY HARD, but if you throw it and catch it you can throw it at anyone also, as long as it has not touched the ground." Evelyn laughed a bit, remebering those times. "When we played I would usually end up with red welts on my legs or arms" She laughed a little bit more. "Well those are the rules for my to favorite games, if you have any questions about the games or anything else, let my know" Evelyn said.
She felt exausted from talking so much so she sat there staring at the fire waiting for Cedric to reply.

Cedric sat and listened as Evelyn explained about the two sports. As Cedric listened he satarted to understand the sports more and realized that both seemed like violent games. In football you would get it if you have the ball. In hackie sack you would get hit for having the ball go somewhere it's not supposed to. When Evelyn was done explaining Cedric looked at her and said "Well they sound like violent sports. I think I will stick with quidditch." Cedric looked around the room and then looked back at Evelyn and said "What do you want to know about me?"

Evelyn sat there looking at the fire and put her red hair behind her ear revealilng a thick hoop earing from the states, it had stretched he ear lobe quite a bit, enough to stick a quill tip through. "Well" she said as she thought of what to ask him, "What types of violent things do you like to do?" she asked, she knew she loved quiddich but did not want to tell Cedric that for no good reason Evelyn thought of no apparent reason only that she did not want him to know everything about her. Then she added, "Do you have any other questions for me?" Then while waiting for his reply she ran the earing back and forth throught her ear lobe.

Cedric sat and looked at Evelyn as she talked. "What Violent thing do I like to do." Cedric repeated. There were many violent things Cedric liked to do. Like practise the dark arts and curse people but he didn't think Evelyn needed to know that. "Well besides messing with Justin not much." Cedric said laughing. "What do you do on your free time?" Cedric asked Evelyn.

Evelyn laughed slightly at what Cedric said. "In my free time i usually curse a thing or animal or two, but normally go flying on my broom, that is, only if I am in a good mood, other than that, when in my bad mood I pull pranks on the people passing by." Evelyn said casually

Cedric laughed at Evelyns response. "So you like to curse things do you?" Cedric said. "Yeah I like to fly. It's the only place where I feel I have total control." Cedric said looking around. "Well is there anything you would like to know about me?" Cedric asked. He had finally taken his hand off his wand and he looked at Evelyn awaiting her response.

Evelyn thought carefully not to let him know everything about her and said, "I love cursing things, just because it is fun to see the reaction," then answering Cedrics question she said, "well what are you doing this summer?" Then she turned away looking at the fire aimlessly flickering a dark orange

Cedric looked at Evelyn when she asked him the question. "This summer. Im not exactly sure. I know that July 6-12 I am going to quidditch camp. Other than that I have no idea." Cedric said. "What are you doing this summer?" Cedric asked.
