"When I think back on these times and the dreams we left behind I’ll be glad cause I was blessed to get to have you in my life When I look back on these days I’ll look and see your face." The music was bouncing off of Jordan's ear drums. Having successfully finished her ice routine for the talent theatre, Jordan had decided to take a small break from skating and from opera. OK, maybe a large one. Her ankles were killing her! As she situated her headphones over her ears, she started to pull her thick brown hair into a loose pony-tail. Letting the two sharp shocking purple strands of hair frame her face and set her skin a glow. She kicked the snow off the tip of her bit, surprisingly it was still snowing. She was starting to really dislike the snow. Along with a few other things.
Pushing open the door to an empty room, Jordan set her bag down on the nearest desk and made her way to the center of the room. She was going to see if she could complete a successful right hand tuck. If not, forget it. She wasn't going to waste her whole day away doing something she couldn't do. Closed her eyes. And she was off, flipping, flipping, flipping, and....falling. Jordan nearly hit her head on the wall nearest her, but she quickly dodged it and collided into a chalkboard, sliding under it with a slick movement.
"And I fall! Of course! I can't do anything right!" She stated loudly, as she stood up and brushed herself off. Pent up anger was coming out again, but she didn't want to release it. Being a Pisces, Jordan was very moody. A Yin and Yang sign, was what she had read. Two fish. Yin and yang. She had laughed when she had read that, but was starting to feel that it was absolutely true, in every way. Jordan was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't see someone enter the room. Rubbing her head, she managed a small smile, and nod towards the person.

Dana practically danced down the hallway, being in an awesome mood. She didn’t know why she was in that good of a mood, she just was and enjoyed it as she sang out, without caring about the curious glances sent her way from other students in the hallway. Besides she wasn’t that bad of a singer – nowhere that good as some people around here, but she could hold a more simpler tune:
" She's sun and rain, she's fire and ice. A little crazy but it's nice. And when she gets mad, you best leave her alone. 'Cause she'll rage just like a river Then she'll beg you to forgive her. Oh, she's every woman that I've ever known
She's so New York and then L.A. And every town along the way. And she's every place that I've never been. She's making love on rainy nights. She's a stroll through christmas lights. And she's every thing I wanna do again
It needs no explanation 'Cause it all makes perfect sense. For When it comes down to temptation she's on both sides of the fence
She's anything but typical she's so unpredictable Oh but even at her worst It ain't that bad She's as real, as real can be And she's every fantasy"
Dana moved on and looked wonderingly at a closed door, she was passing, as she heard as if someone had fell in there. Dana decided to check it out so she opened the door and received a nod as in greeting from Jordan.
“Looks like a bad fall,” Dana commented cheerily, moving closer to where Jordan was sitting and glanced seeing a bump already forming on her head. Pulling out her wand Dana muttered a quick healing charm – she had surprisingly much practice with healing charms on herself as well as on her cousin as well. The bump cleared away and Dana twirled further away letting her knee-length skirt spread out around her, while spreading her arms wide: “Don’t mind me if I seem absolutely ecstatic - I’m in an awesome mood today.”<br> Dana grinned and danced quick salsa for a moment, before grinning at Jordan: “Hey, today I would be happy and perfectly able to dance on the tables at the Great Hall without even being dared to do it like you were!”<br>

Today was a cheery day for Ashley. Spring was finally on its way coming and she was ready for the talent show. She was either going to dance with Maria Fleming, ice skate, or just do ballet. The choices were so hard and Ashley wished Elina was here. Of course her sister was going to go with the safe routine and not the wild and crazy. That was one difference between the girls. Ashley would always try to spice up her older sister life but never really worked. Elina was too much into studying and seemed to be more instructed in books than having fun. But Ashley stilled cared for the older sibling and loved her to death. "Two people on the opposite world met and become friends. Wow!" She thought in her mind with a grin on her face. Holding her astrology book in one hand and her bag in the other she was ready to talk with her fellow Hufflepuff friends. Most people consider Ashley as a little annoying but she was toning it down, with the help of Elina. "Go read a book that will calm you down." Ashley could hear the words of her mother in her head. Ashley and her mother were not close, since the fact that Meredith loved her first child. But that was alright Ashley had her father and the two were just so much like each other. When ever Meredith wouldn’t let Ashley do something she would smile her best and her father would say "Let the child go honey", normally she was give in and let Ashley go.
Pulling her long brown hair up into a pony tail she continued to skip down the corridor towards the Great Hall. She did not know why she was going there, but her legs seemed to have another idea. Ashley hummed a tone as she continued down the corridor. It was a muggle song, that was very popular and up high in the charts. Even know Ashley was still at Hogwarts her father would send her all the new stuff happening in the muggle world. Some newspapers, CDs, clothes, ice skates, and many other things. Sometimes she would share it with her friends and they would have a great time. But Ashley had to let Maria know what was happening in the muggle world. Mia was just in her last year and at the peck of finding her job. She wanted to work in the wizarding world but didn’t know what to do. Mia had gotten ideas from some her friends and told Ashley. One of them was about the muggle relation department in the ministry. Ashley liked the idea and of course agreed with her.
"Here's the thing we started off friends It was cool but it was all pretend Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
You dedicated you took the time Wasn't long till I called you mine Yeah Yeah Since you've been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say Is how I pictured me with you That's all you'd ever hear me say
But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get What I want Since you've been gone
How can I put it? you put me on I even fell for that stupid love song Yeah yeah Since you've been gone" She let her voice escape into the halls but than tripped over a couple of bodies.
"Ahhhhh" She called out loud and fell to the ground. Brushing off any dirt on her knees Ashley looked up at the girls. She only knew one of them and the other was a mystery. Hey maybe this could be her new chance to make friends. "Hey Jordan, what’s up Chica?" Ashley asked with a smile and learned some of her friend Spanish slang. Ashley thought it was quite cool and used it some times. Looking at the older girl she smiled and extended her arm. "My names Ashley Hill, nice to met you. Ohhhh.... Do you know my sister Elina Hill?" she asked as her blue eyes sparkled.

Some girl stumbled on Jordan and Dana clicked her tongue, hoping that the girl hadn’t been hurt. She obviously wasn’t as she climbed to her feet once again and greeted Jordan with familiarity that showed they were friends. Or at least knew each other. Smiling Dana shook Ashley’s hand, as she had extended it: “My pleasure. I’m Dana Coran. And yep – I know Elina. She saved my head in our common room the other day. I took a rather nasty fall down the stairs.”<br>Dana grimaced as she recalled the fall. It had in the end caused her a brief visit to the Hospital Wing to get her head-ache down, where madam Pomfrey had mumbled over her like a hen would worry about it’s chic.
“But you aren’t your sister, so that doesn’t really matter, does it?” Dana answered with a grim and spreading her arms started dancing happily: “I feel as if I’m sugar-high, but the weirdest art is that I haven’t even ate anything sweet today. I’m, just in a great mood. Half of the time I want to go and dance and hug the whole world or go and wash some window the muggle-way or just do something. Anything.”<br> Dana grinned and stopped dancing for a moment. She didn’t want Ashley and Jordan to think she was a complete lunatic. Then again – it didn’t matter that much, as Dana just couldn’t hold her happiness in today. Tilting her head to the side Dana flashed a bored grin towards the other two: “So were you two heading somewhere or doing something important or were just hanging around or looking for something to do?”<br>

Okay, so every year muggle devices didn’t work at Hogwarts. Pay tired to explain it once. Something about no electricity and magic in the air, but he never paid attention and he always tried anyway and with out fail it never worked. Never. He sat on his bed hitting his broken CD playing against the bedpost hoping it would help, but it didn’t. Finally he gave up. Better idea. Jumped off his bed and started digging through Payton’s trunk. Best thing. Pay had Wizarding Wireless whatever! He grabbed it and bounded out of the room down the stairs and towards the great hall. Music was blasting and he jumped around in the hall as he went.
Bouncing along he heard something in a class room. Odd. Classes out. Should be…why people in class room. He jumped inside to see what was happening and saw Jordan among others. He grinned and bounced over to her, Payton’s Wireless Wizarding whatever still blasting.
“Jordan!”<br>He was in a rather hyper mood. Well, he was always in a hyper mood. Today he was just putting no effort into containing it. He jumped his way over to her, nearly jumping on her, and spun her along with himself in a circle.
“Other people! What we doing?”<br>

"I just might dance right there along with you, Dana. That was fun! And worth it to see McGonagall's face when she yelled at me. And your "undying" love to Snape, priceless." Jordan greeted with a smile after Dana healed her head, she sat up, fixed her shirt which had gone askew and smiled again as Ashley Hill entered the room. She had met Ash before, she was a cool person, they both loved to ice skate so they could talk about skating all day. She was fixing her hair as another person joined them. Lifting her eyes, her smile widened and she laughed as Dillion hopped his way over to her and spun her around.
"Dill! Aren't you tired from hopping?! No, of course not. It's you!" Jordan greeted with laughter. Dillion was her bestfriend, and she did mean best. She had liked him at one time, but then she stopped; realizing that would be a bit awkward. She loved Dillion to death! But, not in the way others might have thought. He was more of an older brother, only acts younger. She laughed again and leaned against a wall, her feet still killing her. Jordan tilted her head in deep thought. Three of her friends...what to do, what to do?
"I want create chaos...haven't done that in ages. No sir. I know Dill's in, how about you two. Ashley, Dana? C'mon, it'll be fuuuun. You haven't had fun unless you've done some pranks with me and Dillion. Pleeeease?" Jordan suggested, her eyes pleading over to the other girls. She immediately knew Dillion would be in, it was common sense, the trouble maker that he is, but she wasn't so sure about Dana and Ashley. So seemingly, she had jumped to conclusions.

"Yep, Snape's expression was priceless. Wish I had had a camera thenm" Dana mused happily, recalling the truth or dare game ((hey, you have abandoned that post as well as D.J. The post isn't dead yet, right - it still has potential in my opinion)) Dana laughed as some hyper guy entered the room and twirled Jordan around. They seemed like good friends, so Dana smiled and hopped on one of the school-benches in the room twirling on it for a moment: "Nice to meet you Dill - I'm guessing that's your name. I'm Dana, if you weren't able to discover that yet." Dana frowned at Jordan mockingly: "I proclaimed love to Snape, didn't I? How much worse could you think out?" Dana asked with mockingly-hurt expression and voice before grinning and jumping off the table, making her heels click a little as they came to contact with the floor, "Of course I¡¦m in for some pranks and chaos. Oh yes, I'm definitely in."

Ashley smiled as Dana knew her sister. Elina wasn’t popular but helped people in need. A smile formed on her face as she thought of her sister. She loved Elina very much and was quite close to her. But in the last couple months she did not see her sister. Maybe she was off hanging with friends but Ashley did now know. Tighten her pony tail more she grinned as a hyper student came up to them. He most of known Jordan due to his expression and hers. Jordan than came up the idea of making Chaco’s. Looking at everyone she grew with happiness and almost bounced.
"Lets! It well be quite fun. Than maybe we can dance later. I love to dance and skate! Yes skating is fun but you already know that Jordan. I love to do figure eights and triples. It’s so much fun. But there’s also a down fall. You can get hurt and it hurts when you land on you bottom. Man this one time I was holding hands with my dad and than he let go and bam I landed on the ground." Ashley said smiling and trying to calmed down.
She normally talked more than she did but that was alright. It was a good thing she was trying to calm it. Most people did not like her that way but at times she could become serious thanks to her sister. Man did Ashley always think of Elina or what? Really come on it was Elina this and Elina that. It was maybe because she looked up to her older sister for guideless and a role model. Looking at everyone she smiled, "Come on people lets go!"

Jordan smiled at Dillion, she had missed him and creating chaos with him. There were times that she figured he would like to spend some time with people around his age. But, didn't know if that was totally true, actually didn’t know what to think now. It was all confusing to her, actually in all honesty, everything was confusing to her. She was starting to realize that there were times where she needed to be alone. And there were times when she didn't want to be alone, but always ended up alone. And she could be surrounded by sea of people and still feel that she was empty with no friends, scared, and hollow. Now she looked around her and she saw not only friends but family. She had met Ashley one time before, and had immediately liked the girl for her character. Jordan had met Elina before as well, but didn't like as much as Ashley.
Dana was Kris's cousin and Jordan had met her sometime before or after she had met Kris. Dana was someone Jordan looked up to, admired, even wanted to be like her in some way. Jordan had lost herself a time before, and she was still searching for all her pieces. She had, had a mental breakdown after the whole Katie Davenport ordeal. Many were there for her, many were not, many were ignorant, many were obsessive, but someone made her realize that they were all her friends and they're there for her. Jordan had been oblivious? Was that the correct word? For there were many times where she couldn't think right, even if it saved her life.
Realizing that she had been in her own world of a thought, Jordan shook her head slightly and looked at the people around her. She hadn't heard much so she didn't know what was happening, but she figured she would find out eventually. Dancing on tables! What fun that had been! Went a dare that had been! ((No, Dana, I just haven't got around to posting and I'll try to post later, can't promise anything for DJ though.)) She remembered clearly that night in the room with Dana, D. J. Michaels, Mary Evans, and herself in which they had played the game of truth or Dare. It was interesting and Jordan had enjoyed herself, she wondered if they were up to playing a game later on. She hadn't said much, and she figured if she was going to spend some time with her friends, then she might as well talk, “Alright, so what are we going to do? The talk of dancing on tables in the Great Hall, sounds appealing. Who is up for dancing on tables in the great hall?” Jordan laughed, and she said with a twinkle in her deep brown eyes. She really was just joking but, she had a feeling and that they would think that she was serious.

Dana smirked at Jordan. She had probably meant the dancing on the tables in the Great Hall as a joke, but lately the school had all been so stressed, that it might do good for the entire school. Something relaxing that would make them laugh. Fights had began for no reason lately – everybody seemed to be stressed because of the last kid-napping. So Dana winked at the others: “Hey, I’m in for dancing at the tables. How do you plan it though? As there’s four of us, everyone gets one house-table? Might work.”<br> Dana grinned and thought about it for a moment: “I would survive any table I think, but I would prefer not getting the Ravenclaw table then though.”<br>Dana shook her head amusingly: “We’d just have to agree on what we’ll dance and who goes where but that’s hardly a problem. So is our further action settled then?”<br>Dana winked at Jordan with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes: “As far as I’m concerned Jordan can pick a table first as she already has some practice with dancing on the staff-table. I don't really care what other huouse I get.” Dana clicked her high heels on the floor with a grin and a sly wink: "And should someone get too familar or try something funny , then these heels can create enough damage to make them stay in respectful distance. I think Slytherins hate Ravenclaws a little less than Hufflepuffs, if you can even say that, but I can take the Slytherin table if you wnant, but if anyone else wants it, then I don't mind either. I can also have the Hufflepuff table, if you guys don't want to dance on your own house table."
Dana nodded towards the Wizards Wireless Dillion had brought along: “We already have the music.”<br>

Jordan let out a large laugh. Dancing on the staff table had been an interesting experience. She had indeed enjoyed the look on McGonagall's face as she hopped down and ran out of the Great Hall, well worth it. She twisted her hair around her finger and thought about which table she would like to dance on. She would never in a million years dance on the Huffle table, thanks but, no thanks. She sighed in deep thought. The Ravenclaw table? She barely knew anyone there, besides Elina and Dana. That was a possibility. The Gryffie table was also one, though she knew Amelia in that house. But, she was positive that if Amelia wasn't such a goodie two shoes, she would join in as well. Then there was the Slytherin table. She would do that table, if there wasn't the possibility of getting jumped because, of her half-blood heritage.
"Wow, such choices. I don't know. How about this? You guys pick one table, and then the table that's left over I get? Does that sound good? Anything can't be as bad as the Staff table though, I think I will never ever forget that memory," Jordan replied with a sly smile and a shake of her head. She was rather surprised that she had done it, but there was no way she was going to pick truth when she was in a game of truth or dare with Dana and Mary. D.J. was okay, she already knew her secret, but the other two...she wasn't so sure about. She looked at Dillion, who had been unsurprisingly quiet and smiled as if to say, you choose first!
((*looks at clock* Oi! It's only 5! I thought it was 7! Great, three more hours on the computer, woohoo! Anyway, if you thought Jordan was a muggle born, I chnaged her bio a bit...okay, more than a bit...take a look if you wanna...))
