INACTIVE

He chuckled and nodded, “I think all I have is a sweet tooth, Honestly. I set a record last week for the amount of chocolate frogs one can consume in a day.” They turned a corner and Louis dodged some first year running at a million miles an hour, “Merlin! Little midgets are fast. Anyway, it was on Charms and Animals. What have you been up to?”

"Homework, sleeping, boring things. Oh I apparated to see penguins the other day."

"Someone pushed you in?" Her azure eyes widened in concern. "Who was it? And c’mon, let’s get you warmed up."” She offered Jacob her hand.

"I don't know, I think it was some seventh year or something.I was too distracted by falling into the lake." He took Ara's hand.

"If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you just came straight out of the Black Lake.”

"So it is that obvious. Someone pushed me in. I'm freezing," he says shivering.

"Same here," He said, gesturing to the work displayed in front of him and he let out a long sigh. "Would you want to go get something to eat in the kitchens? I’m bloody starving."

"Okay, as long as we get something sweet because I have such a sweet tooth right now, it's not even funny," he begins walking out of the Slytherin common room. "So what did you do your project on?"

You try living in a dorm with trolls. Mm, I had to pull an all nighter for this stupid Transfiguration project. What’s been happening while I’ve been a hermit?

"Not much really," he says. "I mean some people left because of the holidays but I mean it doesn't feel like much of a vacation because of all the homework we were stocked up with."

Bloody Hell!

[Jacob points to the door.] The door. Honestly mate, I've been standing here for like 15 minutes, you need some sleep or something.

Alice stood up on her tiptoes to glance at his head, sighing in relief. “Thank goodness. I am terribly sorry.” She put her hands up slightly and chuckled. “No more playing with throw-able objects for me.”

"I guess so."

"I dunno, I mean, your younger sister is also a puff, so I see her a lot, but I hardly see Liv outside of quidditch."

"Wow, usually I'm the one forgotten, not Liv."

"Really? What times, then?"

"You can get away with things. Pranks."

"I guess so." Arabella grinned, gently sliding the dress off the hanger before slipping back into the stall. "I always forget that Liv is your sister."

Jacob laughed. "How?"

"I’ll owe you after today. I doubt any guy’s idea of a fun afternoon is watching a girl try on dresses." Her eyes followed the direction he had pointed in until they fell upon the shimmery material of a dress. "Oh, this is one of my favorites, it looked like something Sienna would pick out."

"I guess she's rubbed off on us," Jacob said, giving a chuckle. "Anyway, don't worry about it, remember that I have two sisters, this isn't really new."

"Because." She let out a soft sigh. "Nobody else could come, and you’re a saint for letting me drag you along.”

"I don't really have anything else to do. He looked at the dresses she had picked out. "Try that black one," he said, pointing at the dress.

"Looks great," Jacob said like he had for the last 3 dresses. "They all look good. Remind me again why you brought instead of someone who understands."

"…Are you alright? You seem a little distant."

"Yeah I'm fine. What do you mean  by distant, like more than usual distant?"

"If you’re really bad at it. And nice going Sherlock, you must show me your ways."

"Come on Grace, it's not that bad. It can be awesome at times."
