Typical Slytherin Girl (taken)

[Cassandra Lynn Murphy]

The Study Lounge was always a quiet and relaxed place. She really loved to spend her afternoons here when she was actually doing homework. Some afternoons she found herself not even bothering with her homework and spending more time with her fellow Slytherin girls. In fact she was starting to act more and more like her fellow slytherin females. It was great because for once she felt noticed.

Since the day just ended she was still in her school uniform but she walked with confidence. Her socks became thigh high socks and her skirt was just a tad bit shorter. Astrid and Diana might have been proud of her if they had seen the way she was walking into the study lounge. She walked in as if she owned the place and set her school bag down by her favorite lounge chair. Then she sighed and casually sat down on the chair.

She glanced around the room. There was like one or two people there that had gone back to thier studying once she sat down. So she reached into her bag and pulled out a text book. She opened it up to the stuff they had been working on in divinations. How she hated that class. It spoiled the fun of the future to know what was going to happen. Of course she still studied hard to get a good grade but she knew it would not be her career choice. But maybe some of the future telling stuff could be fun when she was hanging out with friends.

Her life had improved greatly now that she felt like she was a typical Slytherin. Her pretended like she was a pureblood and everything was great. She smiled more and smiled as she read through the book.

Classes were over for the day! That in itself should be the perfect case for Anko Morbova, but instead of enjoying the early evening out on the lawns he was begrudgingly on his way to the Study Lounge...

As he shuffled along the corridors of the castle, he was all but dragging his messenger bag full of books across the stone floors. He heaved it over his shoulder and brushed a hand through his blonde hair as he made his way into the rather bare lounge. He glanced around and didn't notice any familiar faces which meant all the more time he would be forced to try and focus on his work...

Anko noticed a girl, sitting in a lounge chair near a window and it immediately turned his stomach somewhat. He shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "Oh great...a Slytherin...," he moaned under his breath as he pushed past and took a seat on the plush window seat at the window looking out over the lawns...

He started to pull his books out of his bag as he shook his fingers through his hair and once he nestled into his seat he pulled a bright, red apple from his bag and tossed it in the air a couple times. While he was kind of hungry, he was using the apple now as more of a distraction from studying. He leaned back against the wall and stared out the window, still tossing the apple as he fantasized about running around with the other guys. His mind snapped back to reality as he heard the apple hit the floor with a thud and it raced towards the Slytherin, rolling across the room to her feet...

"Oh great..." he moaned and started to move, but hesitated for a moment as he looked at the girl again, she looked like an interesting lot indeed.

As she was reading the divinations book she came across the tea leaf readings. She studied the images and what words were written under the pictures that corresponded with the pictures meaning. She repeated the words in her head while trying to maintain a relaxed look on her face. After all she noticed that the other girls always looked relaxed. For once she wore her hair down so she tossed it back over her shoulder as she read. Normally it was in a low pony tail or brushed straight while tucked behind her ears. Today it just had a nice curl and good bounce.

Honestly she did not even notice the male Gryffindor enter the room and sit down by the window. She wasnt paying attention to that and honestly did not care. Her life felt so much better now that she felt relaxed and let worry just fall off her shoulder. Honestly she thought less about her blood status and that was the biggest worry in her life. She turned the page of the book and played with her hair again. She kept thinking that maybe a cup of tea would be good and she would get the practice in for divinations class. If only she brought a cup with her then she could have made tea right then and there. But in her room she had a tea kettle so she could practice while relaxing.

Just as she was thinking about tea she felt a tap against her foot. She looked down to see an apple at her foot. This made her sit up and pick up the apple. Quickly she glanced around the room to see who the apple belonged to and she saw someone move real quick before stopping. She looked right at him. "Is this yours?"She asked him. Right away she noticed how blue his eyes were and then that he was from the Gryffindor house. She waited for his responce before she would get up and return it to him.
