weird tree ' [open]

[ohmycheese]

Trevor had been looking forward to coming back to Hogwarts. Seeing the grounds, his friends, using magic.. oh, and the girls. What a satisfying time. Classes were starting up again, which wasn't so thrilling, but as long as he had a nice amount of free time, he was fine with it. The fact that this was actually his last year at this school was a bit depressing. Though he didn't like taking classes, he still liked it here. A lot.

Trev scooped up a few rocks in his hand on his way toward the whomping willow, taking his time as he approached the tree. He was dressed casually, not being too big of a fan of the school robes and such. As he neared the tree he could see a couple of it's branches flicking about rather restlessly. Why not have a little fun? He usually liked messing with this tree in particular. Mostly because it could move.

He placed the rocks he had collected onto the ground by his feet, leaving one in his hand. He then tossed it toward the tree, and watched as one of its many branches lashed out, whacking the rock and sending it sailing his way once more. He ducked right in time, feeling the breeze come across the top of his head, stirring his messy blond hair. Oh, this was always good fun. He scooped up another rock, and tossed it at the moving tree, a grin on his face.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara walked around the area and saw the tree, that weirdish tree, she sighed she was bored, so she began her walk towards it, however she didn't notice the boy, throwing rocks at it, when she came up the last thing she saw was a rock sailing toward her head.bang

She landed on her back, a giant bruise forming on her head, she felt her world go black, and she drifed into a dark abyss, a very strange calm abyss, the last thing in her vision was a boy, a hansome one at that.

[ohmycheese]

"Oh my cheese!" he couldn't help but blurt out as he saw a girl walk right into the path of the sailing rock. It hit her right on the head, and he watched in horror as she fell back onto her back. Ohmygodohmygodohmygod, was the only thing going through his mind at the moment. Oh my god, what if I killed her? I'm a murderer!

He ran toward her, staring down at her. He didn't think he recognized her. He knelt down beside her. She looked out of it. Crap, he thought. She was rather cute, and he felt a little guilty for having caused her to black out. He leaned over her and placed his hand on her shoulders, shaking her slightly, "Hey, anyone in there?" he asked, trying to awaken her.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara felt her body shaking, and she heared the voice, her eyes fluttered open, and the blurry face of a boy came into view, Sahara sat up rather fast holding her head, she suddne;y felt queasy, she swayed and leaned against the boy groaning.

"Oww..."She mumbled her head resting on his shoulder, she was to out of it to notice this small detail, her head felt like, well it felt like it had been hit by a rock.

All she wanted to do was check out the stupid tree, and she ended up hit smack in the head with a freaking rock, why? Her luck really must have sucked today, then again, bad things happen for good reasons, so maybe she was suppose to be hit, or..something metaphorical like that. She sighed raising her head just enough to see the boy, she still wasn't coherent enough to see how close she was to him.

[ohmycheese]

Trevor backed up just slightly as she sat up, wanting to give her room. At least she isn't dead, he thought, relieved. He did feel bad, though. This was partially his fault. He should have put a warning sign up somewhere, saying "beware of flying rocks" or something of the sort.

"Oh, good, you aren't dead," he thought, relief flooding his voice. He still had his hands on her, in case she suddenly passed out again, "If you died, your parents could have probably sued me or something," he let out in a rush, feeling like he had to say something. He didn't mind her head resting on his shoulder. He felt that he should at least be nice, after what happened to her.

"Just.. don't throw up on me, okay?" he asked suddenly. She still didn't look so good.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara nodded, a smile breaking onto her sick looking features,"I'll try not to..." She siad softly, she looked at him, he wa from Hufflepuff, she had seen him around, just hadn't gotten to talk to him."My parents don't believe in sueing...just the death penalty." She smiled again, she was feeling better, she moved her head off him, blush crossing her healthier features. "Why where you thrpwing rocks at the tree....?"

She looked at him fully, he certainly was cute, kinda one of those boys where you want to say yes to everything they say and do, just so you can see them smile. She wondered maybe if he was lonely, if maybe he was sitting here because no one was nice enough to come up and talk to him.

"Theres a passage to the shreaking shack hidden in that thing... She commented staring at the trunk of the tree.

[ohmycheese]

Trevor winced slightly at just the thought of being barfed on. One of his worst nightmares. Yes, that should go on his list of fears. He couldn't help but smile down at the wounded girl at her next comment, his highly noticeabe dimples coming to life. He shifted slightly when she lifted her head off of him, and saw the blush spread across her features. He couldn't help but grin at this, since he was used to girls blushing in his presence.

"Uh, well.." he began awkwardly, lifting a hand to run through his dirty blond hair, brushing it slightly out of his eyes, "Um.. playing.." he looked left and right strangely, doing what some would call the "shifty eyes" thing, "baseball?" he finished lamely. He finally took his hands off of the younger girl, since she seemed that she could probably handle herself now, and scooted a bit from her to give her some breathing room, "You see, I would have been playing catch with it or something, but no matter how hard i try, i just can't teach that weird tree how to catch.." he trailed off as he glanced over at the tree, then turned back to the girl with a goofy grin, "What's your name, anyway?" he asked suddenly.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara noticed him moving away, well atleast he knows how to give a girl her space. She sighed, trying to teach a tree like that to catch, yea that was going to work, she laughed, well it was a inventive idea.

"Sahara Rain Wynn, is my name...you?" She replied softly when she looked back at him, he seemed a bit immature for his age, then again he could jsut look old for his age, or he could jst be generally funny.

"I wish i could find a way to the shreaking shack, i hear its haunted. She commented again, she tossed the stone that had flown at her head at the tree, the tree swayed and wacked it back, it came sailing toward the hufflepuff boy, Sahara squealed and dove at him sending them both rolling to the side., he ended up on top of her. She laughed looking up at him. "I don't think the tree likes people tossing stones at it.

[ohmycheese]

"Trevor Schumacher. You can just call me Trev if you want, I really don't mind," he replied casually. Rain.. interesting middle name, yet he had heard that for a first name before. Still, it was unique. And Sahara was a unique name to him, as well. He liked it.

"Oh, yeah, the shrieking shack," he began quickly, "I totally blanked out there.." he mumbled, shaking his head, "Yeah, I've been there a few times, the entrance is right th-" he began, starting to point toward a hole right by the roots of the tree, but before he knew what was happening, he was being shoved to the side. He did a roll and ended up on top of Sahara. Awkward.

"Sorry," he muttered quickly, but couldn't help but smirk and give her a wink before rolling off of her. He was always the flirtatious sort, "Naw, I think the tree actually enjoys it.. gives it something to do," he added with a slight shrug, "So.. the shrieking shack.. have you ever been there?" he asked her, sitting up and dusting grass particles from his hair.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara sat up as Trevor moved, he seemed nice enough, course he could be like Kaleb before she got through to him, which, she could probably do the same with this pretty boy, even if he never ended up a realshionship she be okay with a friend, they were always more fun anyhow.

"No...would you...take me, maybe?" She asked slowly, wondering maybe if this could be her chance to finally see it, even if she was a bit of a scardy cat, she would like to atleast know if it was haunted. She stared at him, this could get rather interesting.

[ohmycheese]

Trevor was rather surprised that she had never been to th Shrieking Shack before. Then again, many people were too scared, or didn't know the way in. He did, however, because he had been there several times, thanks to past friends. He was always one to find trouble, and loved the thrill of it all. They said that place was haunted, and sure, it was spooky, but honestly he hadn't had any strange things happen in there when he was around.

"Sure!" he replied quickly, adrenaline beginning to rush through his blood just from the thought of the shack. It would be quite exciting for him to show Sahara the Shrieking Shack, since she had never been there before, apparently, "I would say we could check it out now, if you wanted.. even though it isn't that dark out, but.. I'm not sure if you're up for it," he admitted, referring to the recent rock incident. She may not feel too well to go on an 'adventure' like this, and he didn't want to risk her passing out on him from internal head injuries or something. Trev didn't want to be caught in the Shrieking Shack with an unconscious, rather attractive young girl. It may give people the wrong idea..

[hufflepuff]

Sahara smiled and stood to her feet, she offered her hand to Trevor, looking at the tree quickly, she wondered how they would get into it, it was a rahter nasty tree, it seemed rather angry, maybe it just needed someone to visit it. 'Sooo....how do we get in?"

She looked at him as she helped him up, it was a odd thing, she made friends fast, but she could lose them just a face because she cared so much she normally got into everything, but it was because of her concern for everything. So really she made enemies, but those never stayed enemies for to long. SHe never told secrets unless they were harmful to the person, and she never spread rumors because that was mean, sometimes she would slip up, but everyone makes mistakes right?

Well not this time, she was doing another baddish thing, and something good always came out of it, two lefts don't make a right, but three do, so it ws time to make her secound left...

[ohmycheese]

Trevor reached his hand out to take the one that Sahara offered him, getting up to his feet. She was quite polite, he could tell. Or she just wanted to touch me.. he thought, smirking slightly. Girls always seemed to want to get their hands on him. It made things easier when they were just throwing themselves at him.

"If you're sure you aren't going to.. pass out or anything.." he replied. She seemed pretty fine now. It actually seemed like she was looking forward to going to the Shrieking Shack. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his wand. He flicked it and made one of the larger rocks that remained in his pile float up. He levitated it slowly toward the tree, hoping it wouldn't swing at it.

Luckily, it didn't, and he set it down carefully near the bottom of the trunk. It was practically a button that made the tree immobile, but not exactly a button.. just a spot. Hopefully it would hold. He watched the tree, and it had stopped stirring. It seemed frozen. He turned back to Sahara, "Well, sure about this?" he asked, wanting to make sure she was fine with this if they went now, "There's a little hole right there near the base of the trunk," he added, wanting to explain to her what they were about to do.

[hufflepuff]

Sahara watched him move the rocks near the tree, and it seem to freeze, as he asked her about going down under the trunk, she stared at it sheepishly, but then she straightened, and balled her hands into fists. "Yea i am ready.... She said bravely.

She was already at the trunk not waiting to see if the tree was really not moving, she squatted down looking in the hole, that was a odd way to get to a place, but she trusted him, she ignored the fact it was dark, and looked awfully close, ugh, close.

She looked back at him giving him a half confident smile, "You coming Trevor?" with that, she slipped down the trunk hole, just like Alice, tumbling down the rabbit hole.

[ohmycheese]

Trevor couldn't help but notice her slight hesitation. He grinned slightly as he saw her hands ball up into fists. He was quite observant, "Don't worry, with me by your side, I won't let anything happen to you... anymore, that is," he told her, giving her a wink as he stepped closer to the immobile tree.

He was awfully surprised to see her at the hole near the trunk before he was. She really was rather quick. He smirked at her and nodded, watching the tree carefully for any movement, but his little rock trick seemed to have worked, "Ladies first," he replied as he watched her slip into the hole and disappear into darkness.

Trev gave himself a couple of seconds before he himself made his way toward the hole, and hopped in. He didn't want another incident like the one before, where he found himself on top of her. Well, he did.. but he was sure she wouldn't. Hell, who was he kidding? He was sure she wouldn't mind him being on top of her again. What girl could possibly not want that?
