Bothersome (Jack)

[broadway]

Raychel pulled her hair up into a messy ponytail, crossing one leg over the other. She had been being followed by this older, immature Slytherin, and he was really starting to annoy her. She didn't know how to get rid of him. Finally, after he had disappeared, she came to hide here. She pulled out a book and began to read, but she wasn't very focused. Raychel was extremely fidgety right now, for she had wasted most of her energy running from that boy. A branch snapped a few feet from her, and she jumped. Raychel scowled at...

[freddygrey]

The slytherin had to go and talk with some others about something, but they didn't seem to be able to help him. Maybe ten minutes later he started to walk through the Gardens and spoted the girl from earlier. She was attractive, more attractive than any of the girls in his house. . "I Just wanted to see if you had notes from Herbology. " even though he was older, he needed to refresh on some older things he should have remembered from last year. He sighed as he walked around the Garden, his eyes moving across the flowers. "They are beautiful are they not.."

[broadway]

Raychel shut her book suspiciously. "Yes they are. And no, I do not. I mean... I do, but..." she stammered, her face flushed. "Why are you following me?" she demanded, getting to her feet. This boy was like any Slytherin, oily and slippery, deceptive and cunning. She was not about to get played for a fool.

[freddygrey]

"I just wanted to see if you had any notes.. " He took a few steps around some plants as if taking a long way to get towards her with out scarring her off. it was the truth he did need totes, but the girl was gorgesous, she had to have realized that. There was this sort of innocence look on her face that he just wanted to get rid of. Taking a quick breath his feet stopped. "I was heading towards the great hall for dinner... Figured I'd see if you wanted to walk together .After all a girl shouldn't walk around the grounds by herself as the sun starts to dim. "

[broadway]

Raychel held her ground firmly, although her heart was pounding in her chest. "You and I both know that you wouldn't stalk a girl all hours of the day just to get her to walk you to dinner." she replied boldly. "Now tell me what you really want." Raychel challenged coldly. She normally wasn't this hostile, but the boy was giving her the creeps.

[freddygrey]

" Just to get to know you.. and we could do that on the way to the great hall." The slytherin gave a charming smile and watched her for a moment. "I promise i'll leave you alone after the walk.. for good" He probably wouldn't, but he would try anyway.

Meanwhile Jack Greyer was walking down the stairs inside the castle. He had been stopped by a slytherin girl he had met once before, who seemed to like to get his attention. He just smiled and nodded. Though he did care about what the girl was saying, his mind was on food. He was starving, it felt like he hadn't eaten all day. The staircase moved back and forth as they stood there just talking. Well she did most of the talking and he listened.

[broadway]

Raychel started to back away, pushing the gate to the Garden's open with her hands. "Erm..." she replied. She didn't really know how to respond to that, because he was obviously lying. She continued to back away slowly, hoping he would take the hint and go away.

[freddygrey]

Of course the slytherin wasn't one to give up that easily. Meanwhile The Hufflepuff managed to get away from the slytherin who decided to chat his ear off today. He moved down the staircase, the slytherin girl a few feet infront of him. Did the slytherin like him? Well obviously she liked him, but like-like was the question on his mind. He wondered if next time in their conversation he should try to pick up on the answer to that question then set her straight. He didn't want girls he was acttracted to to be felt led on in anyway.

[broadway]

Raychel continued to back away slowly. She was halfway out the gate... three-quarters... She didn't want to stay and chat with the Slytherin, but her kind, polite nature wasn't letting her turn and use her finely chiseled runner's legs to bolt out of their as quickly as they would carry her.

[freddygrey]

The slytherin decided to just let her walk off, he would trail behind in the distance. It didn't mean he would be giving up, just meant for now he would try to lay low. HE was starving and his stomach was yelling at him for food and so he ended up following her from a distance into the castle.

Jack stood out in the hallway, students today seemed to act like they had never seen food before. He decided it would be best if he just waited for the huge group of sutdnets to enter befor he did, so he would just wait in the hallway, his back towards the door to the grounds.

[broadway]

Raychel turned and booked it towards the castle. She could hear the Slytherin attempting to follow her while being sneaky. She would have to fix this for good... but how? Suddenly, she spotted Jack, his back to her. She grimaced at the thought of what she was about to do, but pushed that thought away quickly. Raychel trotted up to him, waited until the Slytherin boy was close, then placed her hands on Jack's shoulders. She brought her face to his. "Sorry about this..." she whispered. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and planted a soft kiss on Jack's lips. Raychel wanted to jump back, to run and hide in shame, but she just pulled Jack closer and continued the kiss.

[freddygrey]

Jack moved towards hers after a moment, knowing there had to be a reason behind her action because of the words. He kissed her back, but not out of knowing there was a reason behind her movement, but because he had wanted . They had talked a few times, saw each other around school, maybe hung out once by this time and since day one he wanted to kiss her, it was weird for him to feel such a way, but ti was true. He placed a hand against her cheek , his thumb gently moving against her skin before moving her hair behind her ear. His lips pulled from hers and he looked at her warmly before placing his forehead against hers. "don't be." He said soflty and then kissed her once more softly on the lips before pulling away from her figuring a professor would walk by at any moment. His eyes looked around for professors but in return he saw the slytherin girl standing at the netrance of the great hall looking a bit disappointed. That look answered his question right there, she did like him like him. he als o caught glimpse of a Slytherin boy who's mouth was a little open, but closed quickly. He could tell by the look on the slytherins face that he wanted to come give Jack a peice of his mind. The slytherin started over towards them, but then just went around and joined the slytherin girl in walking into the great hall.

"He's gone.." He said softly, their bodies were still rather close to gether and his heart was still trying to recover from the racing heart beat he had moments ago.

[broadway]

Raychel's heart was beating rapidly in her chest, and she momentarily placed both hands over it as if she were trying to keep it contained. She was blushing a fervent red, but she didn't care. Right then and there, she knew that this was not a mistake, but an act of fate. Since the first day with Jack she had felt something, a certain connection. And now she knew that it wasn't a fluke of the heart, it was genuine. Raychel smiled awkwardly, taking a step backwards. "Merci." she breathed, momentarily speaking French.

[freddygrey]

He smiled "Forgive me.." He said softly and then moved in after making sure professors weren't around to stop him. He moved towards her and placed a kiss on her lips."Forgive me again.. I just need to see something." His lips pressed against hers, but this time he kissed her bottom lip allowing it to stay between his lips for a moment. He then pulled back and with it took a step back. He didn't say anything he just stood there.

[broadway]

Raychel opened her mouth to speak, but no words rolled off of her tongue. She stood there for a second, then she shook her head. "What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost." she asked with a small smile. She was extremely curious as to his little "experiment" but she wasn't going to come right out and say that. She looked straight at him as she awaited his answer.
