Another Year, Oh Joy [ANNIE]

[kaleb]

Kale rounded the last corner of the dungeons and gave the portrait the password almost absentmindedly. He had made this journey so many times in his past years at Hogwarts that it was almost involuntary! The only thing that really changed about the walk over the years was Kale’s age and the password for admittance! He stepped through the portrait hole like so many students before him, and walked over to a chair near the fire. He sat himself down and casually looked around to see if there was any hot girls that he could talk to, as that would surely pass his time nicely! Kale had always been like that, looking for girls wherever he went. He must have been the top womanizer of the Slytherin house, no doubt about that! And he was good at it, that was for sure! He could judge a girl well, and in the first few moments of speaking to her, he could tell what she would tolerate, and what she would hate! He would be able to judge which version of Kale that they would like best. Some liked the quiet, gentlemanly Kale, who disappeared as soon as he was done with them. Others liked the loud, cheeky, life of the party Kale that he could bring out at will. Others liked Kale as the bitchy bad guy, who couldn’t care less, but hey, whatever floats their boat, right?

Kale stretched himself out nicely on the seat and got mighty comfortable. He ran his hand through his hair, as this was a habit of his. He tended to prefer his hair styled perfectly, but on some occasions, something or other would mess it up. Though it didn’t matter, girls went for Kale weather his hair was messy or perfect, he looked to awesome to resist either way. He couldn’t believe he was back here for another boring year, surely he could be having so much more fun out in the world. Although, where, other than Hogwarts, could he find a nice selection of pure blooded girls to take his fancy for a night or two? He knew that it was so easy to meet people here, whilst out in the world of Magic, it could be hard to find proper, Pure blooded witches to hang out with. Men, he didn’t care for as much. Okay, sure, so he had the odd friend, and the odd enemy, but if he had too many great guys around him, sometimes he might loose a chick to one of those. Okay, so it wasn’t likely to happen, but why run the risk? You see, for Kale, it was all about the girls!

An inaudible, but visible, sight left her soft lips as she once again walked down the dusty corridors in the lowest part of the castle. Annie Lynn Gilbert had walked these halls for as long as she could remeber, well seven years to be exact, and to be honest she kind of wanted a change. The point was, so she was a sltyherin, but she was human too and putting their common room in the coldest part of the castle, seemed like a very silly thing for rhe professors to do, but in all this place reflected most people's personlities within the house, cold and unsoaciable, someone you wouldn't want to approach, and that was true for the other houses, and even though Slytherins liked their rivalry, they got along ok. This was one of the most boring afternoons that Annie had ecperienced, she had just been on her broom stick, practicing. No don't get her wrong, she loved flying, but it gets boring after a while.

After she changed in the changing rooms, and made herslef presentable, meaning a complete head to toe dressing up and make up, she was ready to go face other people, and that's where she is now. She had left her broom in there by accident, and decided that she couldn't be bothered to go and get it again. She ran her slender fingers in her hair, said the password loudly to the portrait, and stepped through the hole when it opened. It seemed to be the same as it always was, cold and dusty, apart from the fire. One of her fears was fire, so she didn't dare go near it. The room was half empty, only a few chattering students in the room, and a guy relaxing on the couch. He seemed to be the only one not talking to anyone, and Annie saw a great opportunity for flirtation. Yes, Kaleb Garcia was the biggest boy flirt in the Dlytherin house, but Annie was the female, so it would be fun. She walked towards the couch, plcing her perect hands over Kaleb's eyes and purred in his ear; 'Guess who?'

[kaleb]

Kaleb watched the fire for awhile, being facinated by the colours. He had an odd facination with fire. Nothing as bad as a pyromaniac, you understand, but he enjoyed watching he flames dance together. It was entriguing for some reason, and Kale did't really care what others thought about it. Besides, as they were in such a cld common room, the coldest common room in the school, in fact, the fire was a big thing, as it kept the students of this house warm, though most of them were cold as ice on the inside. As his eyes were on the fire, he didn't notice much of the environment around him, So he was taken aback to feel someones hands slide over his face, and hear a voice whisper in his ear. He didn't jump, no he was way to composed to look startled! He paused for a moment, before putting his hands on the ones covering his eyes. They felt perfectly kept, which meant that it was definately a woman. hey, he had to be sure, you never know what could happen at Hogwarts!

He took another second, before a smirk appeared on his lips. "Well, could it be the woman of my dreams?" He asked. He judged that whoever it was, didn't mind to flirt, that was obvious, which meant that a flirtatious reply was exactly what she wanted, and that was what she was going to get! She had set the standard here, he was just going along for the ride! He kept his eyes closed and left her hands over his eyes, as he knew it was her turn to respond. "Could it be? So many years of looking for the perfect woman, and she's right here in my own house?"

[/color] He said jokingly. Of course, the chance was that it was indeed someone that he had met before, especially as it was a female. The other chance was that he would not settle down and make a commitment to her. No, he didn't do relationships well, though that was probably thanks to his parents and their twisted ways of parenting.[/size][/blockquote]

[annie]

Annie was definitely not surprised when Kaleb didn't flinch at her touch, it was cold and all, but the boy was probably one of those people who aren't surprised all that easily, and to be honest neither was Annie. Even if he was, he sure didn't show it. Then, even looking from behing him, Annie saw that sexy smirk form on his lips. Yes he was a boy from her own house, and yes he was sexy, and Annie had no probalem admitting such things. After he spoke, Annie's lips shifted into a small smile, and she already knew what she was going to answer. His comment was everything that she had expected, which meant that it was onlt flirting, and a lie. If Annie her self had said it, it would have been a lie too, after all Annie didn't do commitement, and occasiossnal snog or a one night stand is all.

'Well, does that woman of your dreams have name? Since I have a hard time of guessing who it could be.' Her voice herld an audible smile, but her hands still remained intact on his eyes. Her blonde hurls fell over her sprakling blue eyes, that were as icy as ever. Her slow breathing was moving his hair just above his ear, and she was sure that he could feel it.

[kaleb]

Kale's smirk grew even bigger as he heard her answer. He listened intently to her voice, and he recognised it as a seventh year that he had seen around. She had a bit of a reputation herself, so it was obvious that he had heard of her. "Andrea, Annabell, no, wait! I have it, it's on the tip of my tongue!" He said, with his winning smile taking over his lips. It was his winning smile because it was so perfect, and so sexy that it had won over many a girl in his time! He felt her slow breathing on his ear, and it was ruffling the hair above it. It tickled, and it felt pretty good! Kale wasn't a ticklish person, there were only a few things that tickled for him, and she had found one of them in the first few moments that she had talked to him.

He smirked once more. "How about I tell you about her, and then you can guess who she is?" He said, knowing that girls loved to be comlimented, weather they were flirts or the shy girl in the library. Every girl liked to be shown that she was noticed and was apreciated, and that someone did think that she was awesome and pretty, and Kale gave the ladies what they wanted! In the world of romance, compliments made the world go around! Okay, so he wasn't always the romantic type, he could be when needed, and seen as some girls liked the romance, he was well learned in the art of it, just in case! Yes, Kale was well prepared, and add that to his talent of judging girls well, he was like a perfectly made Romeo, and all he needed was the girl!

[annie]

Annie would have been a bit annoyed if she didn;t knwo that he was only flirting, and kidding around that he doesn't know her name. If it was anyone else, they probably would, but she had a reputation, which meant that most people did know her name. 'Well, if she really was uour dream gil, then you would kow her name.' She said sweetly, there was nothing to say thats he was negative, she was only saying that because it was a good way to play. Even though Annie was standing behind the Slytherin boy, she saw a smile creep up onto his face, and she had to admit that the boy had a nice smile.

Annie grinned, well this was going to be quite something. 'How about I start of for you?' She whispered sexily in his ear, 'Beautiful blonde locks, sexy perfect lips...' She cooed in his ear seductively. That's how it was with Annie Gilbert, she used her sweet voice to lure them in, right before they saw her even though she was very pretty. And she knew that when he would describe the girl, it would be nice words, and Annie like anyone else loved compliments, even though she got them all too often from people that she didn't necessarily like.

[kaleb]

Kaleb smiled as he heard what she said. Of course he knew her name, she had a reputation, just like he did! And she probably knew that he knew her name, that was a good move, he had to give it to her! "Ah, yes, I do know her name, but the thing is that she is so beautiful and so amazing that when she steps within 3 feet of where I am, I forget everything because I am mezmerised by her awesome charms!" He said smirking again. He was a goo player too, and this was a great move! It was a compliment, and a reason for him not knowing her name, all rolled in to one! Her voice was so sweet, it was like a lure to men! And he couldn't help but find her very attractive! He could still feel her breath in his ear, and he loved the tickling feeling that came with it.

"Amazingly talented, good taste in guys, oh, and of course insanely beautiful!" He said, his smile widening. Girls seeme to love his smile! He didn't know why, but they found it so attractive! her voice got him again, as it was so seductive, and right in his ear. "Did you know, that the woman of my dreams name, it means blessed with grace! Now I believe that's another description to add to the list!" He said, it was clear that he was enjoying this flirting, it was quite fun! Especially since they both knew that it was just a bit of fun!

[/blockquote]

[annie]

Annie laughed at his comment. Yes he was cheesy, but he was sweet, and that was a good way to flirt. Annie had to admire him for that, no wonder he had a reputation, but Annie had sweet words too. 'Wow, that must be one special girl.' She smiled, and then pouted, 'Then how come's you're sitting here and talking to me when you should be talking to her?' She smiled, yes she knew that he was talking about her, but ti was still fun to tease that she was completely clueless, even though he probably know that she was only pretending.

Annie smiled, 'How can someone be so perfect I wonder?' she whispered in his ear, with a small smile on her face. 'I hope she has a personality too..' She said, with a small giggle at the end jut for the effect, he giggles were very cute and a very nice sound to listen to.

[kaleb]

Kaleb smirked again. He had to admit, she was quick with the replies! And he was stuck for a moment on that one! He tried to think of a witty comeback. "Because though she is one woman of my dreams, she has nothing on you, as you are the woman of everyone's dreams!" He said with a smile. He wondered how she would respond to this, and she was good to catch him out like that, there was hardly ever a time that he got caught like that! But he thought his answer was good enough, and now they had turned the speech so it was directed at her.

Kaleb smirked again. His smirk was sexy enough, and most girls found it very attractive! "Your perfection, it suits you! It's like you were born to be perfect, and perfect you will stay!" He said with another smile. To call a girl perfect was one of the ultimate compliments! Ah, yes! You have a personality to match your beauty! You are funny, and smart, and wiitty, and all around amazing to tell the truth!" He said with a smile. He bet that she was loving this as much as he was! Flirting with her had turned out to be bundles of fun!

[annie]

Annie's grin was wide, and it was genuine. Yes the boy was a charmer, but it was quite fun to be flirting with him. 'Well, I can't see I disagree with you there.' She smiled, her humour in her voice very evident. Annie noticed that he smiled a lot, and she didn't object. He had one charming smile, and Annie really like it.

Wow, the bot knew exactly how to compliment a girl. 'Well, I'm glad. I bet you wouldn't want an air head.' She said, with a smirk, even though he couldn't see it. Then, she slowly took her hands away from his eyes, walked around the sofa. She flpped down on his legs, because Kaleb was still laying down. Annie crossed one leg over the other, her jeans hugging her legs perfectly, and she smiled at him. 'So, get what you expect?' she asked, and winked.

[kaleb]

Kaleb smiled at her answer! He had a feeling that she wouldn't disagree! And it probably was the truth too, as Annie was pretty, and flirty and funny, and he would bet that any guy in this room would gnaw his left arm off to be with her. And here she was, her hands over Kale's eyes, and he, the envy of almost every guy in that room! "No, you, nor anyone in this castle could disagree with me there!" He said with a smirk. And he was sure that no one even dared disagree!

Kaleb smirked again. Frankly, as long as she was pretty, he didn't care much if she was smart, as long as she was silly enough to fall for his charmes! although, smart girls did make the whole flirting game a whole lot more fun, as they were harder to please most of the time! "No, I don't want an air head, I want you" He said suggestively, his smirk creeping back onto his lips. When she removed her hands, his eyes took a moment to re-adjust to the light. When he could see properly again, he surveyed that she had jumped onto the sofa, and was sitting in his lap. The girl knew how to play! He placed his arm around her and ran his free hand oer her cheek lightly. "everything that I expected and more! As fate has placed a goddess in my lap!" He said sweetly, his charming smile playing on his lips.

[annie]

Annie liked the conversation that was going on here. She was having fun flirting, and quite obviously Kaleb was too. 'I'm glad,' She said softly, and truthfully, because even though she was Slytherin, and thought that she was perfect, she really wasn't. But she would never let anyone know that, it was too personal, and if she acted convincingly enough, they all beleived her, and Annie was the perefect little acctress. There was a soft smirk on her face, which made her features more angle like. She believed that it was her best look.

Annie smiled ar his touch, the angel look on her face once more. 'Well, now I'm in you're lap, what'ca gonna do with me?' she winked at him, loving that smirk on his face. She was smart, she knew that this was all a game for him as well as her. She leaned in, her sweet breath on his face, as well as her favourite perfume thick in the air around them, her sparkly blue eyes stared right at him, a challenge evident in them.

[kaleb]

Kaleb smiled at her reply. Her answer seemed honest, so she probably didn’t think it was true! He doubted it was true too, after all, they all had their secrets! Especially if you were in Slytherin! Secrets were a big thing in that house. Most of them had secrets that they would take to the death rather than reveal. He too, had his own secret, he was not as strong as he made out! He could also be very nice, and very sweet. He was also very well mannered, though he didn’t always show his sweet side, especially at Hogwarts, as if people knew how he really was, they would think he was an un-worthy Slytherin. And besides, he’d probably end up hurt! ”Well, darlin’ I just say what everyone is thinking!” He said, tilting his head down to kiss her neck, just the once, before returning it to it’s previous position.

He smirked at her reply, she really was a good player in this game! And that’s all it was, a game for both of them to keep them amused and entertained! ”Well, I could spend my time describing it step by step, but that would just spoil the surprise!” He said with a wink. He loved that they were in such a private place, as he knew that there would be some listening to their conversation, and wondering how far they would go! He felt her breath on her face, smelled her perfume in the air, and he smirked. She smelled so good! And he also noticed the challenge she had given him, her being so close to him, the look in her eyes! He leant in, as close as possible to her lips without actually touching them. He tilted her head as if he was going to kiss her. He swallowed hard, so that you could hear the sound, as if he was nervous. Then, He moved as if he was going to brush his lips against hers, though he did no such thing. He had allowed her to be so close to his lips, gave her the impression he was going to kiss her! Then he moved his head away and met her eyes with a smirk. The challenge she held in her eyes was echoed in his.
