Work days like these reminded Millie of the phrase: Did you ever notice 'studying' was 'student' and 'dying' put together? Never the less, Millie put her nose to the grindstone and began wearing away at her sanity. After completing an essay for potions, she started walking around looking for a charms book she needed to start practicing.
Working on your Charm. [/b] Millie thought almost instantly, beginning to chortle under her breath. Reaching up towards the book was a small problem. She looked around for a chair, then realized there was a small table near the book she was trying to get to. After a little struggle between her and the book (which didn't seem partial to leaving the cozy bookshelf). Millie climbed down and gave a sigh of triumph, opening the book only to have it fly out of her hands back into the book shelf. "Really?" Millie huffed, climbing back onto the table.

there’s a strangest excitement today if you're awake then YOU’RE WELCOME TO HEAR I’VE GOT A GIFT AND IT BLEW ME A WAY FROM THE FAR EASTERN SEA STRAIGHT TO HERE OH GOD I FEEL LIKE I’M IN FOR IT NOW ITS LIKE THE RUSH HAS GONE STRAIGHT TO MY BRAIN BUT MY VOICE IS AS ------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- LONELY AS LOUD AS I WHISPER A JOY OF THIS PAIN
Sure Dan's life was a mess at the moment, but he needed to move on. What better place to start than going to do some essays, take his mind off of things. As he entered the library, no gaze shifted towards him, as if he was invisible, which Daniel prefered anyway. With a sigh, he plopped his bag onto a chair, and went into the shelves to find some books for charms. Even though Professor Lupin didn't like essays, he had to give them once in a while, which Dan didn't mind anyway.
Walking to the shelves where the Charms books were held, he was shocked at the sight to say the least. Millie was on the table, trying to get a book which was running away from her. Literally. He his a smile, and put on his sternest voice. 'Elizabeth Malone, are you trying to kill yourself?' He gushed, stepping tonto the table nest to her, and pulling out the book, then quickly stepping off before it could run away again. Whith a smirk, he handed it to her, tame and fine.

"Elizabeth Malone, are you trying to kill yourself?" Millie jumped at hearing her full name and turned to the speaker. What'd I do- Oh. [/b] She watched as Daniel reached up and snatched the book from its perch and jump down cooly as if he was just stretching his arms and happened to grab the book. Millie stumbled a bit on the table, teetering in surprise to see a friend of hers jump up onto the table next to her. Ninja, much? She thought, gaining her balance back and standing up straight. Millie then realized she had to look down to see Daniel's face. "Hey, I'm actually taller than you for once!" She said jokingly, then responding to the question Dan had asked her before. "Ye-I mean no. You didn't see the whole thing, Dan!" Millie whispered, jumping down and looking up to meet Daniels eyes. She took the book from him and tucked it under her arm so it wouldn't run away again. "What are you doing here?" She asked, looking back up to meet Dan's eyes again. [[OOC: Don't worry, it was fine]][/size][/blockquote]

DANIEL THEODORE NOTT.
A small grin flashed across his face, amking the scar on his left cheek more evident. 'You won't be for long, you're gonna have to get down soon enough.' She grinned at her, and it was good to have a friend take his mind off of things that were ruining his life att he moment. 'Hmm, I guess it's an improvement for me too, my neck starts to ache, having to look down most of the time.' He smirked, and it really was true, Daniel had to look down at mostly everyone, being taller than most.
Daniel let out a small chuckle. 'I don't think I wanted to see it Millie.' He grinned, then put his hands up in defeat. 'Really, spare me the details.' He said, rather seriously. When he looked down at her, he faked a moan of pain. 'Aww, my neck, am gonna have to endure this pain of looking down for much longer?' She asked, then smiled. It was good to have a good joke, more healthy for him. 'Well, no matter how crap my life may be at the moment, I still have assignments to do.' Dan replied with an amused expresssion, and kept it in place when he said his next words. 'I don't think I need to ask you what you were doing here?' He said, in question form, glancing at the shelf, and he couldn't help himself, he just burst out laughing at the image if Millie, jumping up and down on that table. That was one amusing sight.

Millie smiled weakly when Dan had smiled, accentuating his scar. After hearing Dan mention the "pains" he has in his neck, Millie finally said "Sorry that your neck hurts. I'll start wearing high heels, just for you." Millie commented sarcastically, rolling her eyes with a small smile. Millie wouldn't be caught dead in high heels...ever. She heard Dan say 'I don't think I wanted to see it Millie.'
"What if it was the battle of all battles?" Millie said with a small sigh. "With Ninjas. And...other stuff..." She frowned a little, thinking things over. "Ok, so there were no Ninjas." She finally added with a small sigh. "And it wasn't the battle of all battles." Millie finally admitted with a little laugh.
'Well, no matter how crap my life may be at the moment, I still have assignments to do.' Millie tilted her head, and despite her friends expression asked "Everything OK?" Out of a habit she picked up, when people mentioned that life was crap (or, in some cases, another word), something COULD be wrong. "No...I guess you already...Hey!" Millie exclaimed as Dan burst into laughter. "What's so funny, eh?" She finished, beginning to laugh herself though she didn't know the reason of the sudden explosion of funny. [/size]

DANIEL THEODORE NOTT.
Dan chuckled. 'I really don't think I could imagine you in high heels.' Dan said, an amused smile on his face, while imagining Millie with high heels. She just never wore them, which made it sort of hard for him to imagine. 'However, I will be looking forward to it.' Dan winked, and it was true. But probably she won't wear them, which was really all the smae for him. He's rather that she was comfortable before anything else.
Daniel raised his perfect brown with amusement. A battle fo all battles. With a book. That somehow sounded quite wrong, not including the ninjas of course. 'That is so you, to exaggerate things.' He smiled, and it was true, but then it was good that she realised how silly they sounded, and admitted to the truth. But the exaggerrationts made Daniel laugh, so it wasn't really all bad.
Daniel dighed, and commited to his habit of running his fingers through his hair. 'Nah, everything is completely fine.' Daniel said, an unotisable trace of sarcasm in his deep voice. 'Well, it's just the image of you on that table.' He grinned. 'Having a battle of all battles with a book. And ninjas.' He said, and cracked up again. This was a one funny image.

"Don't worry, I can't either." Millie said with a small shrug. She didn't really own any high heels in the first place. Her face lit up and she looked up at Dan. "I've got it! You can walk on your knees!" She started to chortle a bit, and added: "And I'll walk around in high heels. It'd be perfect." Clapping her hands together, Millie pictured the image of the two walking down the hall together like that and started laughing.
"You'll wear pillows on your knees to protect them from pain, and I'll have a huge pillow reaching from my neck to my thighs to protect me when I fall." She covered her mouth to stop her from laughing too loud. 'That is so you, to exaggerate things.' Dan said, and Millie pouted. "That may be so, but at least it makes people laugh. It's a spice of life." She nodded matter-of-factly, then pulling a "What the heck did I just say?" face.
When Dan responded to her question with "everything's fine", she nodded cautiously and let it be. I'm here for you. [/b] She wanted to say, but thought it would be best to leave it at a nod. Just watch how he acts...if it continues...[/b] She cut off her own thoughts and let that be. When Dan brought up that the idea of her on the table had started to make him laugh, she sighed and began laughing again. "What can I say? I'm a beast. It's not my fault Ninja's want to test their skills. The book was probably their accomplice." She stated, laughing even harder at the absurd statement she had just said. [/blockquote][/size]

DANIEL THEODORE NOTT.
Daniel just looked at her, no expression on his face, apart that of shock. That image was the strangest image that had been put into his head as of late, and Dan cracked a smile. And then a fullblown laugh. 'I guess that would be the strangest thing ever, but then you'd be taller than me, I'm not that tall that I could really walk on my knees, and you in high heels.' Dan mused, 'Although that image really is quite entertaining.' Daniel grinned, and it was true, he had to control himself as not be laughing like an idiot. He was so glad he had found Millie here, she really made his day. Daniel rolled his eyes at the face she made. 'Your innocence astounds me.' He said, rather jokingly, but he believed it some.
Dan was glad that she left his mood out of it, and just nodded. He was glad that he had a friend like her. If it were Emelia per say, she's be asking him a million and one questions, but with Millie it was just to easy going. 'The ninja's never had a chance. I shouldn't have gotten in the way.' Dan winked, and smirked. He would've stayed back and watch her battle that book, but it just didn't seem worth her humilliation if someone else came around. 'Millie, you're so silly.' He said, ignoring that face that it rhymed. He patted her head with his big hand, and laughed that he merely had to stretch it an inch or two up, while she was quite short.

Millie smiled wide at Dan's laugh. On a good day like today, all she really needed was to make people smile and laugh. "Yeah, getting to class would start to become a true pain. Figuratively and literally." Millie said with a little sigh of frustration. She began laughing again, picturing how slow they would both walk. "We'd have to leave the night before to even get to the doors of the Great Hall, we'd be so slow." She began, laughing at the absurdity of the conversation she was having.
"Trust me, sometimes my innocence astounds myself." Millie sighed, putting her hands in the pockets of her Hufflepuff robes, keeping the arm holding the book stiff against her waist so that it couldn't get away. What she needed was a leash. A book leash, she began smiling a little and looked down at the book. If she had a leash, she could let it fly everywhere as long as Millie held the other end. She laughed shortly and thought that a red leash would match the books binding the best.
'The ninja's never had a chance. I shouldn't have gotten in the way.' Dan had said. Millie gave a curt nod and put on a mock-serious face. "That's correct. They took a look at me and ran for their lives." She said, and added: "I may be short, but that means I'm more aero-dynamic." The book gave a small squirm but Millie took one look at it and hit it over the spine with her left hand. Ha. [/b] She thought, triumphant. When Dan had commented on how silly she was, Millie noticed that it rhymed. "Aw, Thanks Dan! You're a poet, and you didn't even know it." She said back. Dan patted Millie on the head briefly and she looked up at him and grinned.[/blockquote][/size]
