Girl's Dormitory 1 (The O5)

"Pack? So we're really going away away, then?" She got up and started picking up some stuff she'd left under her bed and scattered around, throwing it into her school trunk. "Where are we going? What do I even need?" She sat down on the floor resting her head in her hands to stop feeling dizzy.

"Pansy, are you okay?" He was still very concerned about her and wanted her out of this apparently VERY DANGEROUS PLACE. At her nod he started to move around to gather more of her things, "and you just need the essentials" he conjured up a smaller case. "Just pack a few things... you don't need a whole trunk of stuff."

Pansy nodded. "I'm fine, I'm fine." She tossed him a shirt from the ground and pelted him with a pair of rolled up socks. "So, you didn't answer me... where are we going?"

Draco smiled and put the socks in the case, "It's a surprise!" Draco couldn't keep a slightly giddy tone out of his voice, SHE WAS ALIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE and they were going away together!!!!!!!!!!!! "So do you have this under control? I'm going to go pack quickly, I'll be back in a sec." he put the case down next to her, gave her a quick kiss then sprinted out to his dorm.

Pansy rolled her eyes at him. "Yeah, I got this." She stood up again and pulled some things out of her trunk and stuck them into the smaller case. He'd just kissed her... Draco had just kissed her, as if it was nothing. As if it was completely normal and acceptable and even expected. That was... new. She didn't know what to make of it. She didn't know if she liked it or if she wanted to hit him again when he walked back in. She decided just to brush it off for now. They'd have time to straighten things out, on this trip they were apparently going on. It seemed random, but it was probably better to get well some place away from Hogwarts anyway. She shoved a toothbrush into the case and closed it, sitting down on her bed to wait for Draco to finish and get back.

Draco left his case at the door and walked in to see her all packed and ready. "You got everything?" At her stern look he threw up his hands, "Just checking!" He grabbed her case and offered her his arm, "Can you walk now?"

"Yep." She reached for her case, but he took it instead and she slipped her arm into his. "Yeah. So do I get to find out where we're going now? I mean, I'd like to know at least where I'm following you to. Oh! Wait. I should at least leave notes or something..." She spun around and pulled out a few pieces of parchment, leaving one on her bed for the girls, and sending one to Sev's bed.



Hey Roo, Dee (if you come back), whoever else wanders in...
I've gone from Hogwarts for a few days, but I'm fine.
Don't worry about me. Draco's taking me somewhere else to get better.
I should be back around Sunday, I think.
Love you all,
Pansy

"Oh yeah, I forgot to leave notes... you sent one to Sev?" At her nod he smiled and kissed her on the cheek. Leaning in very close he whispered to her where they were going.

Her eyes widened as he told her their destination. "Really? I've never actually been there before..." She smiled at him, excited despite the fact she felt like just going to sleep for several several long hours.

He noticed her exhaustion and slowly lead her from the room, "Well I'm glad you're excited but I think now we should just get you there and in a bed. Sound like a plan?"

A note finds Pansy, wherever she is.

Pansy-
What are you talking about? I haven't heard anything. What do you mean, about horcruxes?
Explain. Everything. Now. Why is Dee involved?
When are you coming back?
Is Draco taking good care of you?
Whose arse am I kicking?
Do I need to murder anyone?
You better damn well take care of yourself..
I really kinda need you. I screwed up big time.
I kissed Antonin Dolohov. Lily doesn't know. Yet.
I'm so fucked, and not in the good way.
Please come back.
And stop getting into so many bloody duels.
All this time away from Hogwarts isn't good for you.
Or me. See what happens when you go away?
I need you to keep me in line!

Tam walked in with Marcus because she really does need to drop her trunk off. "Yeah well I think she just has a general problem with me. Can't really blame her." Tam pulled her trunk out and enlarged it at the end of her bed. "I'm glad I'm back. There wasn't as much holding me back at the cottage. I missed everyone."

He smiled at her. "Yeah, well people missed you too." he said and grinned at her, when he said people he knew it was really only guys that missed her...but...oh well....He said and looked around awkwardly. "What about that guy you met? Wasn't a keeper?" He asked curiously.

[Paul in my head is still pouting.]

"No, he just wasn't.... I dunno. Enough I guess? He was missing that inner..." she shrugged, "I don't know what you'd call it. But he just didn't measure up against you." She looked around the room and grinned, nothing ever changed. NOT EVEN SINCE MAY WHEN SNAPE OF ALL PEOPLE POSTED IN HERE.

He looked over at her and grinned, in the back of his mind there was a little voice, I mean a very little voice telling him he probably should not be in room with a bed with Tam at the moment but he pushed it away and tried to think of something other than attacking her right now. "So, do you need any help?" He asked gesturing to her trunk. "Unpacking or something." He asked wanting to get raping her out of his mind.

"Yeah help would be great." She opened her trunk and pulled out stacks of books. "Can you put those on that shelf there for me?" She started sorting through all her stuff, trying to figure out what she needed to unpack.

"Yeah, sure." He said and grabbed the books and placed them on the shelf with ease...because he is awesome like that. Unlike paul. >.> "So, anything new happen since I last visited you? It's been a while. Or at least it feels like it has been." He said and walked back over to her.

"Yeah. Not much, that whole thing with Paul and Dee visited and we smoothed things over. That's about it I think. I'm just glad to be back." She pulled a pile of robes out and started to hang them in the closet. "How's Scorp been? I haven't heard from him either."

"Yeah, I'm glad you're back too." He said with a grin. "Now I don't have to sneak away from Penny to see you." he said and laughed slightly. "He seemed pretty good the last time I saw him. He was trying to work things out with Faye and I am pretty sure he did."

Marcus Flint wrote:He said and grabbed the books and placed them on the shelf with ease...because he is awesome like that. Unlike paul. >.>

[Putting books on a shelf makes you awesome?
I guess easily that makes Paul super-mega-foxy-awesome-hot, then.]

[now now, stop fighting. Or if you have to then please shirtless wrestle instead. We all want that.]

Tam laughed with him, "Yeah. Well that's good" She sat down on the bed with the robes in her arms. "I mean it feels good being back but I can't help but worry. I didn't have that many friends at hogwarts before and now that I was stupid enough to run away I doubt I'll get a particularly warm welcome."

Marcus stood next to her, he knew it would lead to bad things if he sat on that bed...he just knew. "Yeah well, If it makes you feel any better I don't have a huge amount of friends either and I am sure all your old friends will be glad you are back." He said and smirked slightly at her.

"Oh I hope so. I have some old friends I can't wait to see again. And some I could do without." She got up and put the rest of the robes away then turned back to him. "Well Marcus it's been a long day and I need to go to bed now. Join me? See you tomorrow?"

"Yeah." He said and grinned at her. Somewhat relieved to get away from Tam by a bed. "I'm sure I'll see you soon." He said as he stepped towards the door.
