tonight I'll meet you under the stars;;scorpius

[Arielle Regal]

Arielle shivered slightly as she waited for him to get changed. It was a bit cold and she felt a bit tired now that she was out of the water. Oh well, she'd probably spend a little bit more time with him before she went in for the night. As she adjusted her long brunette hair so it wouldn't be soaking her back, she looked over to the castle. She knew that a professor would be coming out soon to do their rounds, and she hoped they'd be long gone by then.

When Arielle noticed he was finished changing, she smiled softly at him. "Hmmm...maybe we could either go for a walk in the Forbidden Forest or we could sneak up to the Room of Requirements." she said shrugging her shoulders slightly. Although she did want to go inside, she really didn't want to leave quite yet. It was a beautiful night and she didn't want to leave him yet. She felt excitment bubble within her as she thought about how they'd be able to actually speak to eachother in public. It made her want to squeel with excitement, but she didn't.

Arielle was really glad that they had made the desicion to actually associate with eachother in public. It almost felt unreal since she had been wanting that for so long, but now it was in the palm of her hand. She knew she'd make some people upset, but she didn't really care. Even if Albus and James wouldn't talk to her for a while that'd be fine. Besides even if they did really hate Malfoys, they should atleast keep her interests at heart. In her opinon, the future was bleak as far as their acceptance went.

The breeze blew through her hair, making it go in different directions. Arielle laughed softly and smiled as she fixed her now curly hair. Her hair was naturally curly so it always turned that way after swimming. Her gaze brought her back to him. Her stomach did a small flip, and her smile grew slightly. She walked over to him and grabbed his hand, putting it loosley in hers. Most girls would think about doing something like that so spur-of-the moment, but not Arielle. That was how she was.

ooc;; sorry it took so long to reply and its bad too =[ next time will be better, i promise!

[Scorpius Malfoy]

Scorpius watched he as she mused about what they should do next. He knew there was not much to do in a castle they were not supposed to be out and about in during the middle of the night. All he knew was they’d better get out of sight soon or else they were going to get caught and he’d rather be the one to tell his father of their association, not his head of house. Upon he suggestions he took a moment to consider each. The forbidden forest; now that was definitely out of the question. Thought Scorpius had been in the forest before on several occasions his father had told him stories about it when he was child and they still irked him today. But he would never tell anyone that he was afraid of the things in that forest and that’s why he never went exploring like the other idiots in the school.

When s he looked him and smiled he couldn’t help but smile back. He was truly happy which was not something he could say often. Maybe it was the fact that it was the middle of the night, or that he had just seen a girl in the nude or maybe it was an after effect of something he had eaten that day but he was actually happy. He hoped, however, that it was because he actually wanted to do this and it wasn’t just a whim that he would regret. Letting his hand form around hers when they met he gave it a squeeze and grinned at her shrugging.

”If you’d like we could go to the room of requirement. That way we won’t be happened upon by anyone who might land us in detention. I can’t really afford any detentions.”

That wasn’t exactly true. Scorpius had had his fair share of detentions. It was just that he hated the mundane things they were asked to do and he was usually assigned to the trophy room, polishing the trophy that Harry Potter had won for the Gryffindor Quidditch Team. That always made him want to vomit. So they should probably avoid getting detentions tonight, it would only spoil the event anyways. So he tugged at her hand and began making his way towards the castle, keenly aware of his clothes, damp from the lake water, in the cold night air. His bare feet squished in the mud and he thought he should have gone back for his shoes. But how was he to know he was going to run into Arielle and all the things that had happened would happen. How could he have been expected to know?

What a coincidence she had been out here. He hadn’t really considered it before but of all days to be outside by yourself. He might have understood had she been out here with a beau, in which case he probably would have been infuriated and felt possessive even though he had no such claim over her. It probably would have been that Potter boy too. He knew they had a thing for each other and he didn’t like it one bit. But that didn’t matter at the moment. He was the one out here with her, not Potter. Leaning down as they walked he place a peck on her cheek. Scorpius had been a good boyfriend when he’d been one, always the one to want to show the world what was his and show affection. He didn’t let people intimidate him by what they thought about the lovey-dovey behavior. Of course this was different because of who it was he was kissing but it didn’t have to be. He just had to adjust his thinking, learn different methods.

[Arielle Regal]

Arielle smiled and nodded as they started to leave. She was perpetually happy tonight. Hopefully it wasn't just some spur-of-the-moment action. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that it wasn't really. If it was, would they have the sparks when they touched? She didn't think so. If someone was to ask her how she felt at the moment, she wouldn't really be able to explain it. She felt happy, excited,a bit scared and most likely every other emotion wrapped into one.
Although she was happy, she was a bit afraid to see how it would all pan out. Of course there'd be a few arguments with her and her friends, but that was a risk she was willing to take.

Arielle looked towards the castle and smiled softly once more. It was a beautiful night, but she was also glad to be going inside. Ever since she got out of the lake she had been a bit chilly. Her long brunette locks laid on her back as they made their way up to the front steps. It was a good thing that they were going out now, since Arielle knew that the teachers would be doing rounds in around a half an hour. She couldn't really afford to get a detention either, just for the sake of saving her from boredom.

Arielle looked up at Scorpius and felt excitement bubble inside of her. If she was alone she would've ran around and screamed with excitement. Many would call her crazy for doing such a thing but that's just how she was. If they didn't like her for it, they could take it or leave it. That was probably one of the reasons why she was liked by many. She would stick up for anyone and she most defiantly didn't care what people thought of her. She had the true heart of a Gryffindor but sometimes even she thought she was a little too bold for her own good. An example of a time that she was too bold was when she scored detention for 3 days after mouthing back to the potions professor. Not very good.

As they reached the front steps, Arielle looked around carefully before opening the front doors to let them in. It would've been bad if they got caught, especially by Filch. It was amazing to her that he was still here after all these years. She remembered James telling her about how he was there when his father was there. How ironic. As she thought of James she frowned slightly. She knew he'd be angry and not want to talk, but she had to deal with it since Scorpius and herself were going to be associating in the public's eye. She could almost guarantee James would try to ruin the friendship, but she wouldn't let it happen.
