I'm [not] going to cry.

[cateline]

It was getting colder every day. Summer would soon be over. Cateline had to zip-up her jacket, if she didn't want to catch a cold. Today she didn't care. Today she didn't care about anything. She just needed to find a space to think and have some fresh air. Inside she would never be able to find it.

The Mihael was lonely. Her best friend Helena had vanished.. The last time Cateline had seen her was during the train ride. Now Cateline had no idea where her friend could be, and she felt lonelier then ever. Nobody seemed to care about her. Everybody in her year already had a large group of friends, and she just felt horribly misplaced.

[Jade "Lizzy" Silvernacle]

Lizzy was bored. She couldn't hang out with Brad because, once again he had dissappeared. Though this was nothing new it still bothered her because she didn't have someone to talk to about problems. Sure she had Shay, Kali, Lilly, and her other great friends, but Brad was just the one that would listen no matter what. Not to mention what he had done for her many times without knowing he was doing more than cheering her up. Though once he found out her secret she was sure he could put two and two together so he probably knew somewhat what he did.

Either way she missed talking to him.

Sighing Lizzy pulled her black jacket on and zipped it up halfway over her baby blue spaghetti strap tank top. She had decided to go out and draw the lake in the late afternoon sun. Grabbing her sketch pad, colored pencils, pencil, and eraser she threw them all into a sinch sack and left the girls dormitory and out of the common room.

Once out in the halls she smiled a bit, but still wasn't happy. As usual it took her less than five minutes to get outside since she knew the secret passageways so much. It helped when you wandered around more than you were supposed to.

Soon she hit the grounds and was off towards the lake. Though she saw someone walking ahead of her that didn't look very happy. Sighing she walked and fell into pace with the girl. Judging by the look of her she was a first or second year. She was friends with people in all terms so she didn't mind the difference. "Hey." she said smiling over at the girl.[/size]

[[sorry it's really long, but usually they won't be that long. i promise.]]

[cateline]

OOC: Oh, I can do longer posts :]

Cateline looked up as she heard a voice beside her. At least somebody had noticed her :] It felt good to have some prove that she hadn't turned completely invisible. It was just that she was getting used to pessimistic thoughts. They seemed to work really well. Just think that you're incredibly lonely and nobody cares about you and *pop* somebody appears in front of you and starts talking.

Another great thing about pessimistic thoughts is that, when you have a worst case scenario, everything can only become better. [Or as worse as you imagined, but for somebody with really good making up worst case scenario skills, like Cateline, something like that luckily never happened].

"Hi." Cateline answered politely. She made some room for the girl so she had some more walking space. Though Cateline realized that the grounds were pretty big and it was an unnecessary move. Oh what the hell.

She wondered who the girl was, that had been so friendly to join her for her little walk. Cateline didn't want to scare her by firing loads of questions to her though, so she decided to introduce herself and supposed the other girl would introduce herself back in return too.

"Cateline Pomeroy, First Year Mihael." She said with a smile. "and you are?"

Slowly the sun appeared again, lightening the castle's grounds and the path they were walking on. Funny how the weather seemed to resemble Cateline's feelings. First she had been totally depressive [Clouds & Shivers] and now, she was getting better [Sun & Warmth].

[Jade "Lizzy" Silvernacle]

[[depends on my mood how long it is]]


Lizzy smiled over at the girl, "Nice to meet you Cateline." she said thinking to herself, 'Cateline, that's a pretty name.' "Cateline. That's a name I've never heard. I like it." she said smiling as she looked out over the lake again. "Do you mind if I call you Cate or Lina?" she asked as the two nicknames popped into her head.

"I'm Jade Silvernacle, or Lizzy, Fourth Year Slytherin." she said in reply to the girl's introduction and question.

She knew that a lot of questions could annoy some people, but she was going ot ask some anyways. "So how do you like the school so far?" she asked looking over at Cateline as she walked.[/size]

[cateline]

Cateline smiled at the girl. Nobody had ever told her that she had a nice name. Usually the only comment was, how do you spell it? The change was good :] "Sure you can call me whatever you like, thanks by the way. I like yours too." Cateline said. "I can't help to wonder though why people would call you Lizzy, when your name is Jade. But I suppose it's got something to do with your second name, am I right?" She asked friendly.

They started to walk further, heading for no place in particular. She didn't mind not having a direction. Useless wandering usually was way cooler than wandering for a reason, right?

"School is great. I love magic :]" Cateline said. She left out the part of not meeting that much friends yet. "It makes me wish that I had more classes, or at least learned more spells in one class. Though I know that you've got to practice a lot before you can preform a spell well, but still."
