How many stairs had she climbed? Who knew. She had lost track long ago as she ascended the long staircase up to the Dallin Tower. Why did it have to be such a long way? By the time she had reached the top she was out of breath and had to pause, bent over, to rest. Once she was energized once again she made her way over to the far side of the rather large room and looked down at the lake far below. That was a long way down.
It was a good place to relax and also to think. She was doing neither as she simply stood there, staring out into space. Her green eyes were focused on something far away as a random tune popped into her head and escaped her lips.
She began to sing softly to herself and before she knew it her voice had grown stronger and her voice echoed off the glass walls, creating a elegant sound to vocals as she sang on in the darkness of the night.

Rob climbed the stairs two at a time up towards the top of dallin tower. He had his guitar with him and the only reason he was going up to the tower was because he had herd someone singing as he passed the entrance to the tower. When he got up there he saw who had been singing and then thought why hadn't he recognized her voice it was probably because he hadn't talked to her in a long time. He sat down and took his guitar out of it's case and began to play as he watched Clair sing.
Clair only noticed that someone else was now in the tower when music suddenly accompanied her singing. Her eyes, which had slid close, reopened to see Rob now in the tower with her. Her singing halted suddenly as a smile appeared across her lips. "Rob!" She exclaimed, striding over to him, lowering herself to her knees and throwing her arms around him, which was difficult due to the guitar he was holding, in a large hug. When was the last time she had seen him? When ever it was it had been far too long ago. "How are you?" She asked, the smile still present on her face, brightening her features.

Rob looked at clair as she stopped singing and came over to him and gave him a big hug. He removed his guitar and set it aside and then he wraped his arms around her and returned her hug. He had forgotten what her hugs where like since it had been a long time since they had been together. But now that they where together once again he was happy. Rob looked at her even though they where still hugging he said"I've been okay, but now I feel really good. What about you how have you been?"
Clair smile at his reply, glad that he was doing ok. She pulled away from the hug and sat on the wooden floor beside of him as he placed the guitar on the other side of him. His hug felt good after being apart for so long. She had missed him so much while they were separated but now she felt the comfort wash over her that always accompanied by Rob's presence. "I've been ok. Been a bit lonely without you, but I survived, somehow." She stated with a warm smile. She leaned over and kissed him lightly on the lips before smiling once again. "So, I finally get to hear you playing guitar huh?" She asked with a excited expression.

Rob looked at Clair as she kissed him lightly on the lips and then she told him that she had been lonely without him. He smiled and then he moved down to the floor and sat down next to her and when she asked him"So, I finally get to hear you playing guitar huh?" He smiled at her and said"Yeah I guess you do any particular song you want me to play for you?"He looked at her and as he said that he grabbed his guitar once again and waited for her reply to his question.
She shook her head, a smile playing across her lips. "Nope. You choose." She would rather have him play her something he enjoyed rather than her pick something for him. That was just the way she was. She shifted so that her legs were folded in front of her as she waited for him to pick a song. She would have loved to be able to play guitar, but sadly she had been without a teacher. She still had her voice and that was enough for her.

Rob looked at clair as she waited for him to pick up his guitar. So he got up grabbed his guitar and then he said"Okay then." He strumed the strings making sure it was in tune before he played for here and then he began to play a song he had just been working on. It was also a favorite song of his.
"The Diary Of Jane"
If I had to I would put myself right beside you So let me ask Would you like that? Would you like that?
And I don't mind If you say this love is the last time So now I'll ask Do you like that? Do you like that?
No!
Something's getting in the way. Something's just about to break. I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane. So tell me how it should be.
Try to find out what makes you tick. As I lie down Sore and sick. Do you like that? Do you like that?
There's a fine line between love and hate. And I don't mind. Just let me say that I like that I like that
Something's getting in the way. Something's just about to break. I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane. As I burn another page, As I look the other way. I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane. So tell me how it should be.
Desperate, I will crawl Waiting for so long No love, there is no love. Die for anyone What have I become?
Something's getting in the way. Something's just about to break. I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane. As I burn another page, As I look the other way. I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane.
Rob stopped playing and looked at clair with a smile and he asked her"How was that?"
As he began to strum the musical notes, she recognized the song at once. A smile was placed on her lips the whole time he played. She loved the song and his talent with the guitar. As the last note reverberated around the windowed room he asked how he had done. She was speechless for a moment before a huge smile burst across her face. "You were great! I'm sorry I haven't gotten a chance to hear you before. Your terrific!"

Rob smiled back at Clair who was smiling at him and then when she told him that he had done really well and that she was sorry for not having to have the chance of hearing him play before he said"Well I had just finished practicing the song when I herd you singing. So thats why I decided to play that song for you. So what have you been up to?"He also asked her as he put his guitar down and then he sat down looking at her still smiling and then the moon light that had been coming through the window made it look like that clair was glowing as he looked at her and then he realized just then how beautiful she was.
"Oh." She was glad that he had heard her singing from at the bottom of the stairs. She must have been singing loud without really noticing it. She needed to work on that. At his next question she paused before answering. "Well.... nothing much. I have been practicing but probably not as much or as hard as you were," She added, flashing him a smile before continuing, "I also have been catching up with some of my old friends and such." She shrugged as she stopped talking. She really had not been up to anything of interest lately. Hopefully Bryce's party would lighten up things around the castle.
"What have you been up to dear sir?" She asked in return, her eyes from his handsome face to the moon which was shining out the many windows that occupied the tower.

He looked at her and said"I acctually haven't been practicing that much but thats okay because I've been practicing since I got back which has helped alot."Still looking at her before he said anything about what he had been up to and then he decided to tell her even though parts of it where pain full but oh well he knew that she would understand."Well I went to my parents graves and their house which had been destroyed when I was real young."He looked away from her and then he got up and walked over to one of the windows and stared at the moonlit grounds remembering the faces of those who had killed his parents.
Even if he had not been practicing, he was still very good. His facial expression shifted and just as she was about to ask what was the matter he answered her previous question. Her eyes widened as he explained what he had been up to. If she would have known that this painful subject would have been aroused than she would have not bothered asking. She had never know Rob to talk about his past much, if even at all. It came as a shock to her when he stated that he had gone to his parents graves.
She had known that his parents had passed away but still.... She had forgotten how alike their past were. How much they had gone through the same thing. Her green eyes dimmed as she tore her eyes away from his face, a worried expression now upon her face. "I'm sorry..." She whispered, still not looking up at him as he got to his feet and made his way over to the window.
As he moved, her eyes flashed back to him as she watched him stop and stare out at the bright moon. Sadness for him filled her heart and in one quick movement, she had gotten off the floor, crossed the room and had wrapped her arms around him from behind, burying her face against his shirt. "Sorry," She whispered again, not wanting what she said to have ruined their night.

Rob was still looking out of the window at the moon and then he herd Clair say sorry for what had happend. As he stood there looking at the moon he felt clair come up behind him and then he felt her wrap her arms around him and then when she had said sorry again he turned to face her and he then wrapped his arms around. While looking at her he said"It's okay it's just something I have to live with for the rest of my life but oh well all that matters to me right now is being with you, and the reason why I went there to their graves was because I'll never know what it was like having parents who cared about me. While I was there something happened that I never forget."Rob had remembered what had happend while he was there and some part of it brought comfort to his heart.
She could feel the moisture building up in her eyes but she held it back. She felt bad for bringing about the topic. She felt Rob's strong arms wrap around her as he turned to her. She had forgotten how comforting his embrace was. She didn't reply at once as he said that he never had parents that cared about him. Yes, they were similar. Flashes of the dead past came suddenly to mind and she shivered slightly at the thought. She hated that man and she refused to even let him slip into her mind once again. She took in a deep breath and laid her head against his chest, glad to be with him again.
At the last part of his comment, she raised her head the slightest bit with a questioning look. "What was that?" she asked, confusion clouding her eyes.

Rob was still thinking about what had happened when he visited his parents graves. He had felt anger and then he felt sad and then angry again and then he some sort of peace in his heart. He looked at clair and said"When I went there and I saw their graves I felt anger and I wanted revenge on those who had taken my parents lives but then as I knelt by their graves I saw a ghost or something like a ghost of my mom. I was on my knees and I knelt there looking at her and then she told me that she knew that I wanted revenge on those who had killed them but then she said to me 'If you seek revenge then thats what will run you life until you die, But thats something that I don't want you to do. And even though you hated your father he was the one who jumped in front of you to save your life.' At that point I felt tears running down my cheeks but I didn't care. She also told me that I was to come back here even though I didn't want to because I wanted to seek revenge. But then she told me that if I came back here there would be someone who I could talk to about this and that they would understand. And I guess I made the right decision because I came back and here you where and I knew that if I told you everthing would be alright."Rob at this sat down.
Her eyes tightened with concern as he continued on with his story. All the while she was staring up at him, her arms tightening around him. She knew what he was going though all too well. No one should ever have to go through that pain and anger. Of course, her anger came from a different source and her pain also from a slightly different place. She was glad that he had made the right decision. She would have been hurt if he had left to seek revenge. It would have hurt him even more, she was sure of it. She knew the feeling after seeking something that you never wanted in the first place. Revenge. It was a horrible thing at times.
She felt her stomach tighten at the thought. She had not been totally truthful with him. But now was not the time to tell him so. Maybe later, when he didn't have so much on his mind. "I'm glad you told me," She stated in a soft voice after he had finished speaking. "And I'm really glad that you came back."

Rob got up and put his arms around Clair once more and then looking at her he said"Yeah I'm glad too. I knew that I made the right decision when I stepped into the school grounds again. I'm glad that I'm with you right now and I'm glad that you understand what I'm going through."Rob looked out of one of the windows and he knew that this is where he belonged. And then he didn't know what made him say it but he said it any ways."Clair, I love you."
A smile flickered to life across her lips once again as he placed his arms around her once again and stated that he had made the right choice. She was happier than ever to have right there beside her. She was also that she was able to help, even if it was only a small amount, this time instead of the other way around. She was just glad that she could be there for him just as the way he had been there for her. She sighed contently and hugged him back, glad to have him back in her arms. Hogwarts was their home, and it always would be.
"Clair, I love you."
Warmth flooded her at his words. Her eyes flashed up to his, filled with compassion as she replied. "I love you too." She leaned up on her tippy toes and kissed him on the lips once again. This time with more meaning and a bit longer than the last.

Rob kissed clair back and then he asked with a smile"What do you want to do now?"He was truly happy for the first time in what seemed years he was where he wanted to be and he was with the person who he wanted to be with. As rob waited for her reply he looked into her eyes and said"This is the first real home I've had in years and I'm glad that I'm sharing it with you."
