A Calming Walk....

[Ariana]

Ariana walked around the lake, trying to lose her stress and anger in the crystal blue waters.

[haley]

Haley was sitting on her favorite boulder just thinking.

[Ariana]

Ariana almost runs into Haley's boulder. She keeps walking without looking away from the lake.

"Sorry," she muttered

[haley]

"You must really be out of it to apologize to a boulder.
"Haley said, looking down.

[Ariana]

Ariana just walked along, muttering under her breath. Inside her robe, she had a tight grip on her wand.

[haley]

"Haley jumped from her boulder. She touched Ariana's shoulder. "Anything you might think of talking to a complete and total stranger about?"

[Ariana]

Ariana smiled weakly.

"Not really, but I wouldn't tell a close friend either."

[haley]

"Come...what harm can talking to you. I have something bothering me too...we could trade." Haley said.

[Ariana]

"It's ok. I'd rather not. But we can talk about anything else."

[haley]

"My whole life is turning upside down. I'm being protected from Cole and I don't want to be....if he keeps that up and instigating fights I won't be able to hang around him anymore." Haley said with a sigh.

[Ariana]

"did you tell him that?"

[haley]

"No but I do know that I liked him better as friends...I don't even know how we became a couple...frankly I'm not sure we even are....he doens't trust my judgement most times." Haley says.

[Ariana]

"Whoa! You're a couple! When did this happen? Tells me how much attention I pay to things like this."

[haley]

"I just decided that we're not...I repeatedly have to be there whenever Alex and Cole is in the same room....it's embarrassing to both houses. Don't worry you didn't miss much." haley said gravely.

[Ariana]

(HAHAHAHA I'm watching this TS2 show called The Strangerhood It's so HILARIOUS!!! I'm cracking up!!!!! ;D ;D)

"Ok. Well, you should talk to him. Alex, I can understand. He is nice, from what I've seen, but has a little issue with fights and starting them."

[themorrigan]

"Excuse me, but I'm new here... Am I interrupting anything?"Andrea inclined her head slightly, her dark red hair shining in the moonlight. She carried her moonstone staff in one hand, and her other, gloved, ws formed into a gesture of apology from her home village.

[Ariana]

"Nope. Hi, I'm Ariana."

[themorrigan]

She came out of the gesture of apology, and introduced herself."My name is Andrea Tala Clayrion-Hawke. I usually go by Andrea Hawke. Pleased to meet you." She lost all formality, and grinned sheepishly. "I have to break that habit. I think it scares people. Just call me Andy or Andrea if you wish. I just wanted to meet other students."

[Ariana]

"I felt that way my first week. Normally, when you try to meet people, it gets confusing. After awhile, you start just like blending in. You meet a lot more people that way."

(Darn, I just watched the last Strangerhood ep. It was soooooo Hilarious!!!!!)

[themorrigan]

"I'm going to the ball, but I have no date yet." Andrea sighed. She had been thinking about going out with a guy named mark, but he was taken.
