Waiting for that someone [Jasmine Iero]

[doru]

A black haired boy laid on one of the many benches along the lane. His navy blue guitar was propped up against the bench. He stared up at the sky wondering what to do next. He had come all the way out here for no particular reason; accept to get away from his brother. He listened to the birds and soft sound of falling leaves, trying to stay awake. Sighing slightly, he sat up and picked up his guitar by its neck. With one knee propped up on the bench he set the instrument over his lap and started to play ‘Through the Glass' by Stone Sour from memory, lightly singing the words as he progressed through the cords.

Jasmine wandered down the lane. She was planning to go to the Shreiking Shack to play the guitar that was strapped to her back. But as she heard the chords of Stone Sour playing, she changed her mind. Swinging her Guitar to her front she played the chords slightly out of time, listening to the effect. it sounded good so she continued playing as she reached the source of the music. A boy with his own guitar sat there. She looked at his features and instantly fancied him. She struck a wrong chord and swore beneath her breath. She looked up at the boy.

"Sorry. Couldn't resist. Mind if I join you?" she said

[doru]

Doru looked up at the girl and nodded, “If you whish, I don’t mind if you join me.” He said smiling lightly, “I haven’t seen another guitarist around Hogwarts, so I guess there aren’t many of us.” He paused his playing, “any particular song you want to play?” he asked wondering if she was going to take a seat next to him. He moved to one side of the bench and extended his hand, “I am Doru Raiseninîger.” He introduced.

Jas shrugged. "Not in particular no. I know all the My Chem songs if you know any. I'm Jasmine Iero."

She took his hand and shook it as she sat down. she played a few chords and looked at the boy sat next to her. Doru, Interesting name. He'd have to ask if he was from abroad. Or maybe it was a common name in England. After all, America is different to England.

[doru]

“Ah, yes a very popular American band.” Doru stated, “I know quite a few of their songs.” He started to play the melody of ‘To the End’, “I’m not really that good with American songs, are you from America?” he asked, brushing his bangs out of his eyes. He continued to play the song, but softly so he could hear her answer.

[jasmine1990]

Jasmine sighed. "Yeah. I'm from New Jersey. My dad's the guitarist in My Chem. That's why I know the songs."

She sighed again and played the rhythm. if they were back at the castle she could probably convince her siblings to play bass, drums and vocals

"You like My Chem?"

She continued playing and then switched to playing the same as Doru except slightly behind him.

[doru]

“I’d say they are one of the better American bands.” Doru answered, “A lot better than the rap ‘bands’ that are in America.” He smiled lightly, “It must be exciting to have a father as a musician, does he take you on tours often?”

[jasmine1990]

Jasmine shrugged. "They don't actually tour. Dad's a wizard and so's the rest of the band. They Apparate to a place about 5 minutes away and then take a bus to the venue. Sometimes we get to go with him. me and my siblings that is. Last time we actually got to sing onstage. My sister's an amazing singer so she did a duet with Gerard and then we sang a song we'd written by ourselves."

She changed the chords to the ones of their own song and sang those lyrics.

"and in a thousand years from now,
Could you still feel the same?
Could you still be the one?
And help me through this life?

Would you leave me alnoe to fend for myself?
Or hold me close just like you said?
Leave me now and kill my heart
or stay by my side and help me up?"

She stopped and looked up at the sky. That was before Hogwarts. And before her sister's illness.

[doru]

Doru stopped and listened to her play, than looked questioningly at her when she stopped. “Is something wrong?” he asked her, “You seem slightly distracted.” He said pushing his glasses up and watching her.

[jasmine1990]

She had been thinking about a lot of things in the few seconds she'd stopped but standing out the most was how much she fancied Doru. He seemed like a nice person and he was very handsome.

Jas blinked as she heard him speak and looked at him. "Oh it's nothing. Just some stuff going on at the minute. I'll be fine." She continued to play the chords quietly so she could continue to talk with the Griffindor. "So how long you been at Trio's for?"

[doru]

Doru listened to her, knowing something was wrong, but did not want to pressure the subject. "I have been here for about two weeks," He said, "Not a long time." He watched her finger movements and mimicked them on his own guitar, "What about you?" he asked.

[jasmine1990]

Jasmine watched him copy her movements and reached into her pocket. She pulled out the chord list. She prefered pictures to letters so she'd drawn them. "Here." She passed them to Doru and smiled. "I've been here since just last term. The end of it really. So not long no."

Jasmine blushed and looked at her feet.

"Doru can I ask you something? Do you have a girlfriend? Or a date to the ball? Because I think you are very handsome."

Jasmine wasn't one to blush but she had to ask the question.

[doru]

Dour shook his head, "No, I do not have a girlfriend." he said looking at the paper. "You are a tallented girl," he smiled to her, "and quite beautiful, perhaps we can arrange a date at a later time?" he asked.

((OCC//: So sorry I missed the ball, our computer crashed after we got the DSL up and running, perhaps I can make up for lost time?))
