The last time. (active)+(open)+(Med-Advance)

[Joe Moon(gone)]

The term is very near to the end and Joe Moon will be gratuating with his best friends, Landon and Roxy. Landon stayed in sixth year for almost two years and Roxy and Joe went one step at a time and now all three of them are going to gratuate together. This is going to be the last time that the Head Boy is going to go to the tower. Man... only there was a little more time, then he will leave.

Joe was only wondering that if he was going to gratuate or not becuase it was not offical to him and also that the Ravenclaw only going to find out only by to the end of the term. All he could only do was just to hope for the best. If he does gratuate, then he would have to look for a job, then he would have to find a place to stay, wait... the other way around, look for a place to stay, then find a job. And then finally time to WORK! Wow that sucks, but that was the way of life.

He was on the highest level of the tower just looking down the little area that he could see others run around, skip rocks, some trying to sneak into the Forbidden Forest but each time that someone tries, there was a prefect around looking right at them and saying detention. Joe remember Jodi saying that she was surpired that he wasn't in Hufflepuff because he helps people like she would.

It was a sunny day not burning but a little warm. Some people were going behind trees for a little bit of shade. There wasn't people swimming now that it is fall. After fall was going to be winter which there would people ice skiing and maybe they would break their arm or something. Also that there will be snowball fights which are always fun to do. Snowboarding is his favorite winter sport.

[Jodi Peterson]

For Jodi it was again time to study. Study Study Study. Was all Jodi seemed to be doing these days. She wouldn't be caught doing anything else these days. Sure she ate and slept on occation, and sometimes found time for her Head Girl duties, but that was it. There hadn't been time for conversation on a caring nature. There even hadn't been much time for Quidditch. And by the time Jodi had graduated, the team might not have even played a game. Everything other then study was a waste of time.

Jodi went to the library to try and study. This didn't work too well for her. There were a group of second years that she ended up almost screaming at to get them to stop talking. She held her anger in. After all, a head girl, no wait... A head girl, couldn't be seen yelling in the library. She'd be shot.

Then Jodi tried down by the lake. There Jodi found many third and fourth years talking and chatting and casting spells. This annoyed Jodi greatly, but, being proper, Jodi held it together and left the lake, heading for the Dallin Tower. As Jodi walked she spent a little time to reflect on her leaving school.

It scared her. The thought of being alone. She needed to find someone to share a house with or something. She couldn't afford to pay rent for a house all by herself. She could always move back with family. Of course that would be a last option for Jodi of course.

Jodi reached the Dallin Tower, and spent a minute walking up the stairs. Past the dueling floor, and to the very top of the tower. Reaching to pull her study books out of her bag, Jodi noted she wasn't alone. It was Joe. The best kind of inturption. Conversation and a good perve. Jodi couldn't complain.

"Hello Mr Moon. How is life holding up?" Jodi asked.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

Joe finally heard footsteps coming up the tower stairs. People come here every day and look at the nice view that the tower came in. No one could really figure out who footsteps are but only way to find out is to see who it was. That was the Head Boy was going to do, find out who it was.

He waited for the door to open but it was a long walk to get up to the very top of the tower. Maybe about five minutes to get up there. The footsteps came louder and louder. Then when the footsteps finally stop and the door open. The Ravenclaw was about to say hello or something but he alread reconize the person who came in.

The person was the Head girl name Jodi. She was going to gratuate with Roxy, Landon, and him. Before that she was going to gratuate with Mark he thought but now he didn't come to the classes and maybe not gratuate. It was a posibilty that he will. In Joe's mind was that the Mark wasn't going to gratauate.

"Hello Mr. Moon. How's life holding up?" Jodi asked him. "I guess studing my butt off. I don't remember any other tests that it was sooo important than this one so far. I'm glad that after this it would be over," Joe sighed. It was getting old but he still has to do it to order to gratuate.[/size]

[Jodi Peterson]

Jodi watched Joe as he spoke. He looked nice, and his skin was clear like he was wearing make-up. If only her skin was that clear. Jodi remembered a potion that could fix bad skin. But it could also peel the skin off her face. Jodi wasn't prepared to take the risk.

"I'm worried about all of that stuff. I mean, I'm worried about what I do when I graduate. I could move back with my parents, but that would be my last option. I need to find a cheap apartment with a small amount of board and rent on, or find a room mate. God I need to have a look through the Daily Prophet. They have houses for rent in there, don't they?" Jodi said all at once. Her speech was very sidetracked.

Jodi walked to Joe, and stood beside him. She looked at him once again, and didn't spend a second to realize Joe could easily tell she was staring at him. Jodi took a deep breath and fake sneezed. She smiled a little, and looked away. Her cheeks turned a nice shade of red.

"Some people say I've been studying too hard. Do you think I have? I trust your opinion," Jodi said to change the subject.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

The last time that he saw her was when she saw him at class during Defence Against the Dark Arts. Not much happen but it was almost time for the term to end and the Professor knew that he has lots of seventh years this term and most of them would be gone off looking for a job. Care of Magical Creatures wasn't much because the Professor there didn't have much to plan for the term but she maybe just have her own problems with stuff.

"I personally would go with staying with the parents and now that they know that your grown up and have a job they might have to pay you from staying there for the room for rent stay. Really cheep apartments are nice but then some person call party then it would just get wild and then your the one you have to pay for the damage. Room mates are good but if your friend gets in a fight then you will most likely go to court and then fight to see who is right and who is wrong and people who get into that situation has to pay one half of the appartment to stay," He explained. Much things are just can'ts and might as well sorta things that your going to have to do in life and just get use to it.

Joe saw Jodi walk up to him and looked at him again. What has been up with her? Yes there has been rumors but really what was in her mind. Does she like him. He doesn't know if those rumors are true. Joe doesn't even care about any rumors and she is pretty nice to him. After that she sneezed. Normally people told the person that so and so likes you but now everyone is like keeping a secret and waiting for the person to say FINALLY!

"You don't know what is studying too hard. Keep on studying till you normally wake up know everything about something that your having a certain test on and then failing it becuase you didn't get any sleep, that is studying too hard," Joe explained that to her. He did that once it was funny to him now but his eyes were red at the time and he didn't even hear the teacher talk but that was when he was like fifth grade in muggle school where he use to go to before he got the magical letter.[/size]

[Jodi Peterson]

Joe would prefer to stay with his parents. Of course that was his choice. But for Jodi, it wasn't even an option. It was unspeakable. No one ever asked her why she never went home for holidays. No-one ever really cared, and if they did care they wouldn't have noticed. It wasn't like Jodi walked around with a stamp on her forehead which stated her never went home for holidays. Someone would need to have known her for a long time to make a connection.

It wasn't like Jodi didn't try to get along with her parents. In a way when her parents lost one daughter to death, they lost the other because of blame. Jodi should never have been blamed for what happened to her sister. Humans had this thing they always did. Whenever something didn't go according to plan, it always had to be someones fault. And to Jodi's parents, it wouldn't have made a difference if Jodi was the one that stabbed her sister. Either way it was still completely and fully her fault.

Joe talked about parties. Jodi tried to smile but couldn't find it within herself. She had never had a birthday party. Not a real one. She would have a little party with her parents, when they would cook her favourite dinner. Jodi never had any friends to invite to a party anyway. It bothered Jodi a bit, but she had a long time to get over the fact she was a loner.

Jodi didn't speak at all as Joe talked about school. Jodi had been studying through the night for the past two or three nights. Jodi couldn't remember how many nights it was at all. But it was far too many. But Jodi could handle no sleep. She was used to it a little. Some nights she would stay up with Roxy. If ever she couldn't sleep or just didn't want it, it never was hard to find the 7th year.

Joe looked nike when he spoke. His large pink lips looked tasty. His eyes looked like they belonged to puppy dogs. God what was Jodi thinking?

Jodi looked to Joe and took a deep breath. "Ummm..." Jodi stalled. "I'm sure you might have kind of maybe heard around," Jodi took another deep breath. "... That I um like you," Jodi said, stunned that she let the words slip out.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

Even though that his parents is like little racing cars speeding around the world that wouldn't stop, he still might live with his parents. Joe wasn't a big fan of living with parents after you gratuate because the fact that your really free and your parents like have to let you go but they don't want you, all that is just growing up. His parents are like people who drink coffee while driving so they could get to their place where they want to live. So far it is like nine times that they moved. That was a lot of gas money they spent!

Appartments in the other hand are great! It is your rules and you do whatever you want but hopefully no big parties that you have to pay for it. Either way that he isn't much of a party person kind of guy. You still have to clean up though which is again part of life growing up for. He thinks that Jodi asked that becuase she needed a room mate that will help her pay half of the monthly bill or something. Unlike apartments, houses is like one down payment and your done! Yay! :]

How many books that he read so far for the N.E.W.T. five or six huge books maybe. Joe was a good reader but he still has to understand it all and hopefully it would be worth it. That is just all of study.... which sucks. Study is for bookreaders like him and people who really need it to pass and continue on. Books are not his favorite thing to do but it is still fun to read novels. He mainly like vampire books that all muggles think that they are not real and think that they are only in books and movies but there are real and he is friends with two vampires! Roxy and Landon! His best friends!

He never see Roxy anymore. It was like that she disappear somewhere in the dark. She was cool and his best friend sense he was in third year maybe. Somewhere after his other friend had to move back to her other school where she use to be from. Life there is a lot of ups and downs everywhere around you that you don't know about.

Jodi finally said something about the rumors that he heard so much about her liking him. It seem like she knew about it to and it was all true. Like in movies. "Yeah there is a lot of them going around," Joe paused for a minute. "Is it true?" The Head boy asked her. It seemed like it wasn't but he doesn't know yet that was why he asked her for the truth.[/size]

((OOC: What is Jodi thinking and here comes the Daily Prophet!))

[Jodi Peterson]

Yes it was true. Of course it was true. Jodi wouldn't just say things for the sake of saying something. That wasn't Jodi's style. It wasn't like Jodi to go and spill her beans either. She was usually one to keep things inside. Keeping them inside never worked too well for Jodi. Come to think of it, neither did telling people.

It was never that Jodi didn't have a crush on people. It was that she couldn't handle the stress. She turned to jelly whenever around the person of her interest. A little bit like Jodi was right now. She'd get the sweaty palms and a dry mouth. Jodi would get so scared she's push these people away because she didn't want them to see her all nervous.

There where a lot of them going around. Jodi didn't know what to say to this. Of course there where rumors, but Jodi herself didn't start them. She knew of the rumors herself. It was just... Jodi had never told anyone that she liked Joe. Apart from Amanda. And she would never tell a living soul. Or would see? For a second Jodi questioned Amanda's loyalty.

That was until she realized she didn't hide the fact. She sat in class almost drooling in his direction. It wouldn't have been hard for anyone else in her class to find out. Jodi blushed, and looked toward Joe.

"Yes. It's um... It's true," she said in a weak fragile voice. Anyone could tell Jodi had never had a boyfriend, and this way why. She was fidget.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

She said it. He couldn't believe it was true. If Jodi said it was true then it was true, it was a fact. Not a stupid old opinion. She said it really quietly. He couldn't guess, he would have never known if that was true. She was cute. Wow he never said that before in his life. Maybe he does like her too. Everything is like up to his soulders now.

Jodi did wanted a room mate. It would most likely be Roxy for a room mate for the apartments that they are going to live in very soon. More days of the calender. How many more days again? Who knows. Very close though. He might as well becuase he never gotten a girl friend before in is little life so far. Now that the term is very near and the gratuation is closer it may seem, it was like the best time that he had!

He didn't know who was spreading them but Jodi must had told someone and the person who was like ten feet or so away from them and who is like a gossip spreader had to spread it. The people who knew about her having a crush on him stayed away from him like they don't know anything. Joe has good ears. He could hear someone maybe twenty-five feet away from someone who is speaking normal. That is good for him but this is all brand new news to him. It never happen to Joe Moon before, he never fell in 'love' in his life. He had dates before for the dances but not like a boy-friend, girl-friend kind of relationship before. How is this going to happen.

He has seen her blushing before but it could had been a joke. No it couldn't becuase she would be laughing. Joe laughed at jokes before but still it was news to him. There was like a little thin wall that was between them from what he didn't know and her trying to break it. This sucks! He does like her. Maybe he might as well.

"If you don't mind me asking but how long that you had a crush on me?" He asked her. He just wanted to know how long had it been it has been happening and that how long that he didn't know what was happening.[/size]

[Jodi Peterson]

How long had Jodi liked Joe? She'd never really thought about that before. Maybe a term. Maybe a little bit more. No, it must have been this term. It was when they where both given the title of head girl and boy. Ever since then, she'd had her eye on Joe.

Maybe it was the start of term dinner; when all of the first-years where sorted. Jodi had spent most of that dinner looking away from her table, and toward the Ravenclaw table. Or maybe it was earlier. After all they have been in the same class for a long time. Jodi had repeated her 2nd and 4th year, so they would have been in the same class for 4 terms.

No, it had been only since the start of this term. Jodi had liked Holden and Mark in other terms.

"I think it's been since the start of this term. Since we where both Head's. I mean, Head Boy and Head Girl are kind of meant to be together, right?" Jodi said, still with a small weak voice.

Jodi had to ask. She couldn't not ask. "Is there any chance you like me as well?" Jodi seemed like a 5 year old when she was talking. Small, sweet and innocent.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

Joe didn't really knew Jodi then. Before that they been Heads Boy and Girl. First year he was just a kid walking around the castle exploring the place, just getting use to it and maybe make more friends every once in a while. You know like if a kid just been into a new school he had to move to and knows no one but himself. Everything was new. Also just a little comparison with the old schools and the new school. It was just a little hard.

He already knew that she was been held back a couple of terms because, well, she knew way more people than he did. Then when she got it right she kept on going. When she was in fourth then he was in third and she must had stayed there and he went up a year. That was the only year that he knew about her going backward. The sorting dinner wow, he just sat their eating like some person who was alone. Yes Joe was really alone for a while till he ment Anna Bell on his first year. Anna was his best friend at the time.

What happen to her? That was in his mind becuase he didn't see her sense the fourth year. She must had to move out of the school.

"Yeah, I know what you mean,"replied. Head Boy and Head Girl. It was like saying Prom King and Queen. Both of them just meant to be together. To him that he didn't knew about it until that he heard someone saying that Jodi like Joe while he was walking by. Just to think of it. It could have been Tristam. Then again he was going out with someone else. Besides Tristam and Joe, there was Mark, Landon, and Alexander. Alexander he didn't really know him, would like to but so far clueless. Mark saw him once of the train with Karen, but that was last term. Landon maybe go with Roxy, it is a possibilty, doupt it though.

"Yeah there is a chance, I am not crushing on anyone else," He replied again. Wow Joe just said that! He would never really say that to anyone. He did have mix feelings about her like a friend and a crush kind of way. The Head Boy didn't have mix feelings about Roxy becuase she was his Partner in Crime, best friends how would that come out?[/size]

[Jodi Peterson]

"Oh OK, I just thought maybe you might like me back," Jodi said, looking out the corner of her eye to see Joe's reaction. She sat down, her back against the balcony of the tower. She tilted her head to the side, trying a little to look like a puppy dog with her big green eyes.

She truly was acting like a little girl. It was just, she'd never been in a situation like this before. She'd never confronted anyone about her feelings. That was how Holden got away. If only she had the courage to confess, then maybe Holden would have known. And Jodi only found out earlier on in the term that Holden liked her too, he was just waiting for her to say something.

All this waiting. But what was it for? What was the point in waiting? As if the moment had to be the perfect right moment. Well, Jodi and Joe were alone. As it was a nice day. The breeze tickled Jodi's ankles. and slightly bent the part in her hair. The view was as good as always. Should Jodi have waited? Did she just ruin a friendship in hope of a relationship?

"Well, I'd still like to be friends you know. If you know, don't want to be more. We can catch up some time in the Alley or something right?" Jodi asked with a hint of desperation.

And it was only last night Jodi had thinking about asking Joe to be her roommate. Of course she wouldn't be able to live alone, but she couldn't live with a close friend that she was crushing. It would be way too weird. Way way too weird.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

]Joe was going to say something until she lean against the balcony of the tower and made a cute puppy look on him. He laughed when she did that. "Well I do like you back and I would love for you to be your boyfriend," The Head Boy replied.

The term is going to end very soon and he never gotten a chance to get a girl friend from the past six terms in his life at Trio's Hogwarts. Joe got close but never really said anything till the person moved to a different place. He knew that Jodi was going to stay until the gratuation thing.

It was like a pausing moment right now. If was really quiet. Most of the other students were outside playing at the feilds near the banks of the lake becuase it was near the end of the term and they were happy about it. Some students were studying for the exams. Joe just hopes that he just pass the seventh year.

"I know what you mean but I already said my answer," Joe replied. It was his final answer and it was offical. Yes. That was it and is was over with. Now that they could just chat about life and that junk.

He already knew that she needed a room mate. He wouldn't mind being her room mate. His answer made it a little less weird. Boy friend and Girl friend always seem to spend time together. Plus it was just beginning and it was the best way. "So do you have a room mate yet?"[/size]

[Jodi Peterson]

Jodi became very hot and red. He did like her back. He wanted to be her boyfriend. Was that asking her out? Or was that just stating a fact. Either way Jodi wasn't sure what to say. This boy liked her, HE LIKED HER!!!

Jodi was also looking for a roommate, but even if Joe and Jodi didn't 'get together', she couldn't really live with him, could she? She had never really had a boyfriend, let alone lived with a boyfriend before. That was a big step for Jodi, and she wasn't sure she was ready for it.

Joe had never really dated anyone before. This meant that both boy and girl would be knew to the whole dating thing. She knew that they both wouldn't know what to do. It was only the movies that taught girls and guys how to react toward one another. Jodi didn't really know what boyfriends and girlfriends did, but she did know how she felt. And she wanted to be with Joe.

"Are you asking me out Mr Head Boy?" Jodi said with a wicked smile. She grinned showing all of her teeth, and perhaps a little of gum. Her smile would only look cute to the weirdest of people.

"And no. I don't have a roommate and I seriously need one? Would you like to be my boyfriend or my roommate? You only get to chose one?" Jodi said, returning her face to the unusual grin.

[Joe Moon(gone)]

Joe knew that she was surpise. He didn't know that he liked her. Normally that he likes to hide his emotions and give out an emotionless look everyday. Now that she knew her cheeks were going even more red than before when he saw here. Also that twisting him plot is really funny to him like it just that you don't really know what is going to happen next.

Are you asking me out Mr. Head Boy? She asked him. He never really got to that point yet but that would be a yes. "That would be a yes to you answer Ms. Head Girl," The Head Boy joked a little. Yes yes yes yes yes! Offical answer yes. Jodi was smart and pretty and for sure that she is going to gratuate with him, he hopes.

The closest thing that was a date to him was for the dances and the ball that happen every term. Twice from Hikaru and once from a Hufflepuff girl who went somewhere else. Not like a go out kind of date. They were both firsts again! Wow he never thought of that of description.

And no. I don't have a roommate and I seriously need one? Would you like to be my boyfriend or my roommate? You only get to chose one? Choose one then..... Roommate is like to get to know each other kind of thing. Boyfriend and girlfriend is like love offically. Offically is better than roommates. Joe made up his mind. "I would go for the Boyfriend, girlfriend choise." He replied.[/size]

(OOC: Short reply sorry. Wont be back to Friday!!!)
