Trying Not To Cry

[Vivian Steele]

Vivian glanced up quickly half expecting it to be the Dark Lord saying that I'd insulted his little sister and now had to die, but luckily it was only Jett, so she quickly relaxed. She oddly wondered how Jett percieved the scene, as Vivian was sitting there holding an ice pack to her eye while Andy was squatting next to her, a reassuring hand on her knee. "Know any good pain killing spells? This hurts like hell..." she said to Jett, ice pack still on her eye. The girl certainly did have a good punch, there was no denying that. She smiled slightly, realizing the irony of it all was that Kiera was going to have to do the whole potion by herself anyway. She comforted herself with that thought as the pain continued to trhob.

[Jett Owen]

Jett raised an eyebrow. Still not saying anything. The way he saw it was that he had two choices. He could keep Vivian or he could let her go into Andy's arms. Well Jett just couldnt be put down like that, so he decided to keep her. By choosing the option he would have to suck up for a little while, seeing as though thats what she craved, just enough to make her forget about Andy and be completely and fully into Jett. He could fake it for a while, it wouldnt be a big deal. All he would need to do was hang around her more, and perhaps do a few 'sweet' boyfriend like things. He bend down on one knee so that he would be at eye level with her. He knew that there was a small flower shop in Hogsmeade, he would have to bring one up from there. He pointed his wand at his left and and swirled it in a small circle, making a red rose appear in his had. He smiled and handed the rose to her, he leand in and kissed her softly on her cheek. "You'll be fine. He has to get through me to get to you." He said, it was truely believeable and he was forming some sort of soft spot for Vivian, he liked the attention she gave him just like any normal boy his age would.

[Vivian Steele]

Vivian smiled slightly as she took the rose into her unoccupied hand, the other one holding the ice pack to her eye. She had probably never felt more like a princess than she did at this moment, with two boys squatting or kneeling next to her as she sat on her 'throne.' She had to admit that she was enjoying it, there was no denying that, but she did her best to still seem miserable and injured... which turned out to not be that difficult because her eye still did hurt a lot. "Thanks sweetie," she said to Jett, though sweetie didn't really mean anything as she called everyone sweetie and hun... because learning names was below Vivian, and even if she did know their name she was just used to calling people sweetie and hun.

"Oh and Andy, I was asking whether you played Quidditch because you looked like the type who would, and I thought you'd make a good captain," she said with a slight shrug, and she wasn't just saying that... as she did think he'd make a good captain. However that also meant that he'd be at about the same power level as Jett, and might make Vivian change whom she wanted to bestow her attention upon.

[Jett Owen]

Jett looked over at Andy when Vivian finished speaking. If Andy was going to be playing quidditch, and then possibly be the captian, he would be overpowered and then obviously Vivian would be picking Andy over Jett. Jett just couldnt have this. He decided at that moment he would join the team, no matter how many extra hours it took he would train and practice and become the best there ever was, somehow it wasnt just about Vivian anymore. It was about being the best. Jett strived for competition, he lived off of it. He didnt say anything as he was sure Andy would have something to say since Vivian was speaking to him. Jett needed more brownie points, but what to do...what to do.. He wasnt sure, but he would find something out. He knew Vivian loved to be pampered and he figured she was just loving having both boys kneeling down before her like this.

[Micheal Moonshadow]

Now, Micheal hadn't left the commonroom for Potions. He had too much fun playing with the ice dragon he had made in Transfiguration.

Of course, this was until he realized that he was truely late to Potions by a long shot. He hauled it to Potions when he heard sounds. He ducked into hiding and saw Vivian, Andy and eventually Jett, too. Micheal winced at the sight of the other two, but shed a tear when he saw what happened to Vivian's face.

After letting Vivian have sometime alone with Jett and Andy, he quietly walked forward with a sad look on his face.

"Are you alright, Vivian? You look hurt..." Micheal was speaking like the innocent child he really was, a child that couldn't be affected by Vivian's beauty. No, he felt sorry for her because she was injured and he didn't like anyone getting hurt. "Is there anything I can get you to help with that eye?"

[Andy Jenkins]

Andy watched the two converse, his face not showing the jealousy his heart was shedding. He smiled at Vivian, before pulling out his wand and conjuring up water and a tiny Tylenol pill. 'Here. Take this.' He said, extending the two items out to her.

So Jett declared war, did he? Well that was fine. Quidditch it would have to be, and Captain he would have to become.

Andy turned to the little boy, noticing her always appeared at the oddest times.

[Vivian Steele]

"Thanks hun," she said as she took the water and pill, gulping it down and hoping it would help. She wasn't sure about muggle medicine, but she trusted Andy so she took it anyway. She then looked at... Micheal was it? She didn't really remember but she gave the kid a smile anyway. "Thank you... but I think I should be doing fine, these two gentelmen have been doing a lovely job of healing me up so far," she said, with a slight smile. She could almost feel the tension in the room, but it was certainly interesting.

Suddenly though, an owl flew in, an unfamiliar one and dropped a message in her lap, and it stayed on her shoulder and made sure any of the three boys couldn't get a look at it, or else it would nip him. Vivian opened it, though her hands started to shake when she got about half-way through and she paled a good amount. She weighed her options... wait inside to be killed, or go outside to meet this Eve woman. Well... she said she was going to kill her if she came outside, and considering she had no other options, she slowly folded up the letter and stood up.

"I have to go, hopefully I-I'll be right back," she said, now her voice was starting to shake. She bent down and gave Jett a quick hug and kiss on the cheek, before moving over and doing the same to Andy, though while she was hugging him she grabbed her wand out of his pocket. "Now... follow me and I will kill you," she said, quite seriously, not wanting to get killed because of them. And both of them knew she could do it, so they would be wise not to mess with her. She turned on her heel and walked out, still shaking and pale, but at least a bit more confident than before now that she had her wand.

[Andy Jenkins]

Andy sighed, knowing what this was about. How he longed to come with her, to protect her from everything that could ever harm her. But he knew that if he did follow her, death would probably become of both him and her.

He got up, dragging a hand through his hair, before turning to Jett. He said nothing, as he held no grudge against him. He understood him. 'I'll see you.' He said as a farewell, before exiting the empty classroom, trailing down the hall, ditching the rest of Potions. He flicked his wand, making all of his belongings in the Potions classroom disappear, reappearing on his bed in the dormitories.
