Getting a late night snack [Open]

[melody]

Sighing as she ran her fingers through her long brown hair Melody walked towards the kitchens. It was quite late at night, and she wasn't really supposed to be out of her dorm but she was quite hungry and she hadn't been able to get to sleep. As she almost tripped on a crack in the floor, she caught her balance and cursed under her breath, hopefully she hadn't maken too much noise. Walking into the kitchens she took a seat at the stool, ordering a peice of chocolate cake from a house-elf.

Placing her head in her hands, she stared down at the table holding back a yawn. As the house-efl came back Melody gave him, or her, whichever it was, a smile before taking a bite of her cake. She didn't mind being alone, she just prefered to have someone else with her, but she wasn't sure if anyone was going to show up, seeing as she wasn't supposed to be out this late at night.

[Ashley Tapping]

ashley woke up late in the middle of the night and she heard her stomach growling because she did not have any dinner the night before. she quietly got out of bed and made her way down to the common room she then stepped out of the potrait and started walking down flights of stairs. she was not sure what time it was she just knew that it was really late and that she wasn't supposed to be walking around. as she came to the bottom she could not tell where she was because it was so dark. all she knew was that the kitchen was somewhere near here. ashley had never been to the kitchens before so it was really hard to find the entrance. though people had told her the entace was behind a portrait. she walked down a dark hallway and finally found the entrace. she was so hoping she would not meet any professors inside. she quietly walked inside.it smelled very good in there. she decided to sit down but she did not know where to.

she walked over and to her suprise a girl about her age was sitting down eating a piece of chocolat cake. ashley decided to go over and sit down next to her. so ashley walked up and sat down and said,"hi im ashley, im in gryffindor i think i have seen you around the common room are you in gryffindor too?" at this point a house elf came up to ashley and ashley said,"ill have a few brownies with no nuts please." the house elf hurried off and came back moments later with a plate full of brownies."thanks." ashley said with a smile to the little elf. the elf then bowed and ran off. ashley asked the girl whats your name? i got so hungry so i decided to come down and have a bite to eat. what about you, why are you down here?"

Hearing a girl come sit beside her she looked over and smiled, she looked kind of familiar and as the girl spoke Melody suddenly knew where she had seen her. "Hey, I'm Melody," Melody replied with a smile at the girl, brushing her hair out of her face. "And yes, I'm in Gryffindor as well, first year," she added. Ashley seemed like a really nice girl, her and Melody could probably get along quite well, seeing as they were in the same house and would probably be spending quite a lot of time around eachother. Taking another bite of her cake she swallowed before answering Ashley's second question. "I was hungry and couldn't sleep, that seems to happen a lot," Melody finished with a small laugh.

melody said,"I was hungry and couldn't sleep, that seems to happen a lot," ashley replied,"yeah me to but i never come down here this is my first tim ever being down in the kitchen. i almost did not come down because i was afraid i would run into a professor but im glad i did because i was really hungry do you want one of these?"she said gesturing towards the brownies she had in front of her. ashley could tell that they would both become friends very quickly. ashley sat there looking around at how big the kitchen was and how many house elves were there.
