Sitting on edge (open)

[troyzoton]

Troy decided he would get out of the castle and get some fresh air so he decided he would walk down to Walker Lake as he had not been there before so he thought he would have a look.
Troy made his way towards the lake and decided to walk along the rickety pier which he heard was good for diving off as the water was deep here.

As he walked he realised the pier looked very shaky and unstable but he knew that it would not collapse because magic was holding it safe and still and it wouldnot be in use if it was unsafe.

Troy made his away across the pier and decided to sit down on the edge with his feet dangling above the surface of the water which reflected in the moonlight and gave a glistening and friendley glow across the large lake.

Troy sat and gazed out along the lake wondering if he would see the giant squid he had heard so much about but he wasn't too bothered really as coming face to face with a giant squid did not seem too attractive...

Troy sat and began to become lost in his own dreams about his first year at the school and whispered to himself, 'maybe later i will go for a swim, maybe' he said

'Where should I go?'

Clair asked herself this question as she wandered the deserted corridors. It was late in the night and as she had expected it was emptied of other students. She sighed as she made a left turn, letting her feet carry her to where ever they wished. She had become bored of staring out of the window in the Mihael dorm and decided to find something to do that would cure her boredom.

She looked up from her thoughts to see the moon hovering above in the dark sky. It shone brightly tonight and illuminated the large grounds in its glow. She slowed as she came to the lake and looked around, the moon reflecting in her bright green eyes. She glanced around before running her chilly fingers through her dark hair. Even though she was outside in the late summers heat, she was usually cold.

Her attention caught on the pier that was an addition to the lake. She stared at it for a moment before deciding to venture that way. She stopped suddenly for someone had beat her to the pier. She watched him for a moment out of curiosity. He seemed to be lost in thought, staring out at the still lake. With a faint smile, Clair walked up to him and greeted him. "Hey, nice night huh?" She asked in a friendly tone. She was in the mood for company and was wondering if he would mind some.

Troy was sitting on the pier looking out over the lake that gleamed under the light of the nights moon.
He was awoken from his daze as he heard footsteps slowing going across the wooden pier.
He turned around curiously to see if someone was there or if it was just his imagination.

As Troy looked down the other end of the pier he saw a figure making it's way slowly across the pier and as it got closer he realised it was a girl, a girl with dark hair, and she was wearing Mihael robes and as she neared he was about to greet her but she had beaten him to it,

"Hey, nice night huh?"

Troy replied, "Yeah, it is isn't it, it's great to sit late on in the night and just watch the stars or the lake or the moon" he smiled

"So what brings you out so late?" he asked, pleased to have some company.

"Yeah, it is isn't it, it's great to sit late on in the night and just watch the stars or the lake or the moon"

Clair mirrored his smile as she drew closer to where he was sitting. She nodded in agreement as he spoke. It was a wonderful, clear night and this fifth year would not want to miss out. It had been a while since she had taken the time to just enjoy the stars or the sky for that matter. She inclined her head to look up and smiled slightly to herself. "It really is," She said, lowering her gaze to look at him.

"So what brings you out so late?"

She shrugged before speaking. "No reason in particular. I just wanted to enjoy a walk thats all." She glanced briefly at the sky before looking back at him. "Why might you be out here?" She asked in return. Realizing she had failed to introduce herself she focused on him once more. "I'm Clair by the way. Clair Crystal." She also realized that she had not asked if he wound mind if she stuck around. "Mind if I join you?" She asked politely.

[troyzoton]

The girl introduced herself

"I'm Clair by the way. Clair Crystal."

Troy looked at her and streched out his hand to shake hers whiilst he introduced himself,
"Hi Clair, nice to meet you, my names, Troy, Troy Zoton" he said with a smile and then said, "Yeah, sure you can join me it's fine" he replied "I'd like some company, I came out here to have some peace but I was hoping I would meet someone here as well, to get to know somw more of the students in the school" he smiled as he gazed out over Walker Lake as the moonlight was brighter than ever shining off the murky water of the lake.

[Brayden Christiansen]

Brayden mad ehis way down the stone steps in front of the castle out onto the damp grounds. He had been outside of the castle the last few days, and he liked it better that way. Being inside the castle just gave him thoughts about upcoming tests, homework that needed to be done, and wondering the house points tally, and being outside gave him a sense of being carefree and not having to worry about anything. Only yesterday he had gotten a girlfriend...outside!

Brayden made his way onto the beach of Walker Lake and walked slowly towards the Rickety Pier. He had only been on the pier once, and it gave him a sense of unsecurity because of how it wobbled and squeked, but knowing it was held up by magic made him feel better.
As he made his way onto the pier, Brayden could make out the figures of two people, one seemed to be a girl, and other a boy. As he got closer, he noticed one to be a kid in a few of his classes, and the girl seemed to be the one he had met a long time ago when he was on the Hogwarts Express.

"Hello. Hmm...you Clair Crystal, right? I think I met you on the Hogwarts Express, I'm Brayden Christiansen." Brayden said.
"I've seen you in a couple of my classes, but I haven't heard your name." he said to the boy.

((Sorry it took so long =[ ))

With a smile, she took his hand she shook it. "It's nice to meet you too Troy." She replied, letting go and looking around at the pier. Her eyes fell back to his face as he answered his question. Happy about his reply, she sat down, letting her feet hang over the edge of the wooden pier. "Thanks." She said happily, looking back at him with another smile.

The pier creaked as another students began to make there way towards the two of them. Her green eyes flashed behind them to see someone approaching them. The voice sounded familiar but she was having difficulty trying to locate in her mind where she had heard it before. It dawned on her suddenly as he drew close enough for her to see his face. "Yeah.. Hey Brayden!" She said a bit excitedly. "How have you been?" She asked him, the smile still in place. It had been a while since she had seen him.
