She was still smiling and there was a huge change with her normal appearance. Usually she had a cold and calculating look on her face. The only other time that she ever smiled in such a way was with James, but even that took time and she was never like this. He was, well in one word different. She had a fairly good judge of people and their basic personality but with Seizel there was none of that. It was just this aura of mystery. Like what he let people believe was not what he really was like. There were people like that but not as alluring as the Ravenclaw.

She was finished with her meal and wasn't really paying much attention to anything. She was completely lost in thought about the strange events that had taken place over the course of a few hours. Then that intertwined with what was happening at the school was a lot to go over. She completely snapped out of her thoughts when Seizel's had grassed her leg slightly. This time her reaction was different. She instinctively felt threatened. It passed over very quickly, almost as if it never happened. SHe had thought she had overcome such reactions. Old habits die hard.

She was glad that Seizel did not have any followers or people all over him like some people she knew. If she had never met Seizel it would not of concerned her but that was different now. It was the slight sting of jealousy. She did not want there to be anyone else. It was such a strange notion but she kept it in the back of her mind, not wanting to dwell on the what ifs. She gladly accepted Seizel's hand as she stood. "I don't normally respond to such comments. Most of the time they are somewhat annoying, but I like being with you so I guess that changes some things" She stated. It was a sudden statement that she would never utter. Right now, though it did not matter. Things were starting to change this year and she was liking this one.

Seizel certainly knew this was not a normal everyday occurrence when a girl was actually intriguing him, and now he was more interested in her than previously when they had first met. Watching her subtle reactions to his hand on her thigh earlier, he knew just how to avoid that from happening again. Seeing the strange reaction, he soon just held onto her hand, helping her up as he glanced around at the other tables. Seeing if there was a sign of Deimos anywhere, but if Seizel knew him better than anyone, it was obvious he'd already know about Alaya. That was after all what Deimos was famous for, and what made it slightly tricky about avoiding him. Even some days, Seizel could just disappear off of Hogwarts for days on end without being found as no one, except Alaya now, knew about his secret spot.

Seizel was unsure if they should head back now as he slightly hesitated on leaving the Great Hall at that particular moment as some form of other memory was interfering with his thought process. Was it one of when he was a child or was he just staring at the wall getting lost in a day-dream? It would seem like it as he just stood there for a few minutes longer than a normal person would until he heard a snapping noise nearby. That brought him out of his day-dream and caused him to jump a little, gripping Alaya's hand a little tighter by accident. It wasn't too hard, just a little unvoluntary flinch from having been startled as his eyes widened looking towards her.

"Are you okay? I'm sorry if I scared you like that, I got lost in thought thinking about you," he said right off the bat, not even missing a beat. Was he normally this suave when it came to the ladies? No, he usually didn't talk to anyone at all besides his friend Deimos, and that was just mere nodding to one another without saying a word. Just the type of intellectual intelligent people they were. "Let's go back to "our" spot," he said it purposefully into her ear though before she got up hoping that wasn't too close to her comfort zone or if he was breaking it.

They stood there for a moment and Alaya did not want to interrupt something, as it seemed like he was deep in thought. He tightened his grip slightly and it did not bother her in any way but there was still that slight nagging in the back of her mind. She shook her head when Seizel spoke. "No don't worry about it" She smiled even if she was still feeling slightly distant. She did not want to worry Seizel or give him a wrong impression. Why she was worried about that, Alaya could not figure out.

Our spot, just the sound of his voice when he spoke made her blush. She was really touched by him sharing such a special spot with her, when they first met of all times. She nodded but paused for a second before answering. She was starting to wonder if she really should continue with this, whatever this was. There was a reason she didn't get close to anyone. It took her a couple of years to fully trust James and here she was putting her full trust in some she did not know. She didn't want to hurt him or be reminded of why she was so distant.

No, she was through with thinking that way. This was a new year with some many good things happening and here was just another one of them. The past was the past and she was so close to being free of it. Why dwell on things that were non existent at that moment. She wasn't the same person that she was the first couple of years at the school. "Yeah lets go" Her voice was confident and more assured it had been before. She was holding back before but now she didn't want to. Things were different and she was going to take advantage of it.

Seizel was definitely not going to put it past Alaya to not trust him at all since he had just met her. Now he was just letting all of his worries go out the window as he stopped from thinking too much about it. Easily calming himself, and now breathing slowly, he was soon going to learn how to control his own thoughts. That would involve a lot of motivation from his other peers, but if he could learn something it would at least be to block out people from reading his thoughts. As hard as that sounded, he was still going to do it in the long run, but he didn't want to hand his mind over on a silver platter either. Seizel had been practicing for ages on resisting the Imperio curse, and never wanted anyone to use it against him. Once they were heading out of the Great Hall, he made sure Alaya was still holding on to his hand. The one life line he never wanted to lose.

Sure, it was as if his whole life depended on her actions and what she actually thought of him, although Seizel didn't really want to look like he relied on her all the time. After all, that would be looking like he was pretty needy. Not that it mattered, as he was already giving Alaya a chance at becoming his number one too. Seizel normally didn't open up to anyone this easily either unless he was using them. In Alaya's case, perhaps he was using her for the time being, not that she'd be able to tell the difference. Keeping to himself was one of his worst, yet most mysterious attribute that drew so many in. Only to be crushed by his awkward anti-social conversations as was the case right now. Yet, he really didn't need to talk at times with Alaya as she understood just from his touch what he wanted...even as he was making his way towards the exit out of Hogwarts.

"I was serious about carrying you though, but I have to ask. Is it the danger that lurks in the forbidden forest that lures you or is there some other reason you love lounging out near it?" he asked her as soon as they entered the woods, and made sure no one else had noticed them do so. Even as the thick brush started to surround them so it would be hard to hear them talking to each other. Seizel thought he was getting a little too nosy for his own good, but Alaya still intrigued him immensely.

As the forest drew closer her heart beat started to return to normal. Holding his hand still created butterflies in her stomach but it was also a security. She felt completely safe with Seizel. Was it because of his mysterious nature that drew her in that was now giving her a sense of security? She did not know why, nor did she care as long as there was honesty and trust. It took time for her to trust anyone and in the end she had one perosn she full trusted but right now there was another and it scared her at how quickly she had fallen for him.

They were alone as the trees and brush enclosed them in the forest itself. It was great to be back in the forest especially at night. She loved it greatly and did not know what she would do without the calming sense of the forest always there. His question was a decent and simple question with a fairly simple answer. But Alaya hesitated. That was the one topic she wanted to avoid. How could she answer? She did not want to just stated like it was no big deal what she was. It was her most and best kept secret that was only entrusted to one of her peers. No one else, but some professors, knew and she wouldn't just go telling someone she had just met something like that. She was afraid of how he would react.

She was going to avoid the question for now. Simply give a generic answer that really didn't say much. "I guess you could say it lures me into its depths in more than one way" It was an answer that said nothing. "So what about you? What drives you to the forest?" She questioned so he wouldn't be able to challenge her answer right away. She wasn't sure now what to do, but even so she still held onto his hand not wanting to let go.

Seizel had been briefly stopped by her answer. Was there something she was trying to avoid? That couldn't be it, no, he was too secure in some of the things he did as well. It was just a natural reaction to a good cause, but he wouldn't push the subject. As there were many other darned fools that would take his place for him, but with Alaya. Seizel was pacing himself just right so that he didn't step over any boundaries with her, as was the usual quota for the day with an intelligent mind like his. Even if he did act withdrawn at times, it was most likely to save Alaya from being used or hurt in an way. Seizel rarely talked with anyone, so it was easy to avoid that much at least.

As many girls did like him, but he never really paid any notice to them. Either too busy with Quidditch or just staring off into the distance near the Forbidden forest, if he wasn't at his spot. Well, his and Alaya's spot now. Wondering if a truth about her would come out when no one else was around, but he was just curious as to what she could mean by that. "I've answered that once before, I like the peace and quiet. It's helpful when I need to think, and also helps me avoid people at times when I need to. Although if there's anyone bothering you about something, just come to me and I'll set them straight, plus it's so peaceful compared to the chaos going on within the school," he said quite calmly, as if he had rehearsed it for when she would ask again. Even now he was becomings suspicious of why she had avoided his answer.

Not that it mattered, considering she had indeed dodged the bullet so to speak for now, but he then started to pipe up again. "What I don't get are the few people that go around claiming their vampires without good reason, just cause you're part something doesn't mean I'll treat you any different, but I never say anything. Heck, I think that's the only one I can really think of at the moment," he muttered, not realizing he was close on the dot about something else. Luckily, his mind went to other things, yet his comment was incredibly random once they reached their spot.

Seizel honestly thought there was nothing wrong with being different at all, and if there was, most had to deal with him since he considered himself slightly different.

She really wasn't thinking strait. This was not like her, usually she was very sure of herself when it came to talking with others. Never did she find herself at a loss or being forgetful. Would it of been better if she had just walked away and had not gotten into a conversation. Then none of this would have happened and she wouldn't be confused as she was now. She was a little shocked at his statement. What did it matter what she was? Yeah she didn't want the entire school to know but where was the harm in telling Seizel?

She squeezed his hand slightly before letting go. It was almost painful to let go of his hand. She walked further into the clearing, their spot. She looked up at the sky and watched the stars for a moment. "Can I trust you? I mean, I just met you and really do not know much about you. So can I?" She asked, her voice soft. It was a very strange thing to ask. They really had just met that day and here she was ready to tell him on of her biggest secret. She was nervous to the point she could feel herself shaking.

She could not bring herself to look back at Seizel. She didn't know why she was so worried about what would happen next. Either she would tell him or not. It was easier when she told James but she knew him fairly well when she did finally say something to him. She knew very little about this Ravenclaw. Only that her heart raced when he touched her and she wanted to be with him. It just felt right. She had never felt like this before and it was so strange. Before coming to the school she did not know what it meant to be accepted or what it meant to be loved. With James and the quidditch team she learned friendship and acceptance. This was something else entirely and she did not want to loose it.

Well, at least his suspicions were confirmed, and he wasn't too wary of her anymore either. Now he let his guard completely drop as he let go of her hand once she walked away from him, but he didn't make any mention of anything else to her. Thinking he had touched a subject she would have rather avoided at the moment, and then looked her in the eyes. That was the customary thing to do in situations like this, and it was especially important since Alaya wasn't doing anything to him that made him think she was joking. In fact, if he was right, this was definitely the most serious matter he had ever been confronted with.

Seizel was thinking she was a vampire, but then she wouldn't have gone out during the day. Nah, that wouldn't stop part vampires at least, considering they could tolerate the sun at least. Now he was curious as he looked at her, trying to figure it out before she told him. Curiosity, the one thing that drove most of mankind to the brink, just to do whatever it was they needed to find out the truth. Seizel wasn't like that, the truth would come out when the truth came out, "Well, of course you can trust me, I promise not to tell anyone else if it's one of those secrets. I swear on my mother's grave and my own if it happens to be the case," he said solemnly.

Swearing allegiance to her by crossing his hand over his heart and then moving it up to zip his lips. It was a confusing gesture at best, but it meant well. Waiting to her what she had to say, his eyes remained on hers. How beautiful they were, and they captivated him so easily, perhaps after her secret was out he'd do so much more. No, he wasn't going to rush things again, he had sensed hesitation last time he did so. "I'm also normally not very talkative with a lot of people to begin with, considering, I've read every entire book in the library and appear sometimes as a know-it-all so that's why I keep my distance a lot too," he added, letting his own truth come out.

It was just natural, I mean, she was revealing her secret, why not reveal his, but she still didn't know -everything- about him. Just the essential details so she'd trust him more, "I wouldn't have told you anything if I didn't trust you, Alaya," he said as he walked up to her holding both of her hands in his own. Then looked her in the eyes staring at her from just one foot away, letting her close the distance if she wished to get closer.

She did believe him, for whatever reason she knew that trusting him was alright. Her judgment were usually right and well she like Seizel. She wanted to be his and she wasn't going to deny it. Everything about him was so captivating. She wanted his acceptance, she had never cared what others said or thought of her, acceptance was nothing to her. Here she was now desiring acceptance from a boy she just met. No it wasn't that simple, the moment she started to speak with him it stopped being simple.

She met his gaze and was more than entranced. His hand griped hers and she knew that she never wanted to let go. Why did she ask such a silly question? She knew that she could trust him. Her heart was racing and there was only a foot between them. It didn't take much to fill the gap that was between them. Now instead of a foot between them there were only a couple inches. "I'm a werewolf" She whispered. It was extremely straightforward and direct but she figured it was best to just get strait to the point.

She took a deep breath before speaking again. "It seems kind of silly to keep it hidden. However, only one other student knows and there are a few professors who know. The thing is I want to keep it that way, and I can't let my family find out" the part about her family was very hushed. It was the reason she hid it from the beginning. She wondered if she was raised differently if she would be so careful about that small fact. She had looked down when she spoke but when she finished she looked in his eyes wondering what his reaction would be.

Seizel felt a breeze through the trees that was almost foreboding, but he didn't care as he just stared at her in silence while holding her hands. Was he right? Well, his suspicions were confirmed at least as he then let a smile adorn his face the whole time he heard this, and it was obvious she was trusting enough to tell him about it. Now his arms were wrapping around her waist softly as he walked up towards her and then pressed his lips softly against her own. Not holding back in the least as he pressed her up against a tree behind them, giving himself to her right there. Oh no, he wasn't going to go too far with her as he wanted their relationship to have been around for a bit before anything like that happened.

Now it was his turn to blush softly as he pulled out of the rather passionate kiss and then continued smiling towards her. "I'm glad you trusted me with that, secrets are sometimes the hardest things to bring out in another person. I promise to never tell anyone else," he said to her. It was a rare bond he had with Alaya and he definitely didn't want to give it up to anyone else in the world. Seizel knew he had made the right choice and would literally give his life for Alaya, which was not many could say they'd do on the spot. In fact Seizel would have to show how serious he was by doing that for her one day without her realizing it. Even if it lost Ravenclaw 100 points, he'd do it if it saved her life.

Well, minus the tasks, since he really couldn't interfere with that, but he was glad that there was some sanity to the tasks. Considering they shouldn't be too dangerous, but the House Cup Tournament idea was pretty awesome in itself. Looking into her eyes as they had reached their spot already without realizing it too after he walked a bit forward to push her into one of the trees that could view the stars easily as the sun was slowly setting. Seizel was too captivated by Alaya's eyes to look at anything else as he then spoke to her again, "Alaya, I will never let you go, ever, you're too beautiful to be snatched up by anyone else," he said to her.

Of course, if this was how she acted a lot, he was going to have to get used to her being with him on his arm. At least that's the way he saw it, but it was obvious he would give her space when she wanted to be alone.

What was she worried about? His smile was so kind and she knew he understood. As he moved closer she had a harder time of staying calm. Her heart was racing and her nerves spiked to a whole other level. It shocked her a bit when his lips touched hers, but it was an amazing feeling. Next thing she knew, her back was against a tree, arms around his neck and she was kissing him back. As far as wonderful experiences go this was certainly at the top.

She returned his smile, maneuvering her hands so they rested on his shoulders. She rested her head on his chest. Her breathing was deep and even as she felt at peace. She felt safe in Seizel's arms and that was a first. She never wanted anything to happen to him and she swore to do whatever she could to keep that promise. Alaya believed every word of his promise, she trusted him with all her heart. She was quite as she listened to the sounds of the forest as night creped upon them. She could also hear his heart beat and she was more entranced by that then anything thing else.

This was going to take some getting used to as she was not accustomed to being this close with anyone. She knew it was going to be alright. "Thank you" She whispered. It was the only thing she could think of saying but it was all that was needed to say how she felt. It had been a while since she had felt safe and never completely safe in someone else's arms. But she felt this connection with Seizel that she had never experienced before. It was a beautiful evening and the day which started out strangely was ending wonderfully.

Seizel was so tempted to take it so much further with her, but he seriously didn't want to scare her away. Aside from that, now that he knew her secret, he no longer really had anything to worry about especially since most of the other werewolves he knew about weren't as shy as she was. Normally he could have seen this coming, but with Alaya, it was hard to read her thoughts on the spot, where Seizel liked to be a few moves ahead of anyone. Even in this time he was now reading the general atmosphere and went in for another passionate kiss. This time pressing his body softly against hers as he rubbed her back gently.

Smiling as he heard her say that to him, but he found no need to answer at the moment just enjoying her there with him. Finally he pulled away slightly so they could actually move closer towards the real spot, since they were just standing in what looked like a clearing in the Forbidden Forest. Gently taking her hand with his own again, he smiled towards her. "Come on, we did promise to look at the stars together, and you're welcome," he finished. Starting to make his way towards the area with the bench he was bound to reach it faster than they had previously. Considering there was no trace of that same animal having been there from earlier, and it was obvious someone was cleaning up after the animals.

Seizel considered that a serious warning as to what could be lurking in there, but alas, there was no need for that to occur right at this moment. Making sure Alaya was still with him as usual, dong the same thing by looking over towards her, more concerned about her now that they had confessed almost everything they knew about each other to one another. Seizel finally just relaxed once they found the view with the lake as he then sat down on the bench, patting the seat beside him unless Alaya wanted to sit...on his lap or in between his legs to rest against his back. It was up to her really.

"I am an only sibling too, so I'm probably used to being alone in the long run, but it's different having someone who you care so much about that you'd never want anything to happen to them ever," he added sincerely.

She was now red from blushing as he kissed her again. Such passion, it was almost unreal. Her skin felt like it was on fire as he gently pressed up against her but she didn't react the same way as she did when he brushed her leg earlier. She liked being this close to him. There wasn't anything to be worried about and she knew that she was safe with him. She didn't really want it to end but it did anyway. She had almost forgotten about the stars. She nodded as she walked along side him. A slight chill ran up her spine. It wasn't from the cold, but from the forest. It was almost like earlier that day but she decided to ignore it for now.

Alaya did not want to ruin such a moment when she was finally with someone very special. She walked close to Sezial as they reached their spot. She sat next to him on the bench. She really did not know what else to do. Why did she care so much for this person? It was all because of the strange bond that she felt with him. It was hard to describe but it was wonderful all the same. She would have never guessed that she would end up feeling such emotions, and so strongly too. The whole thing was foreign to her but she wanted to give it her best shot.

His words were very touching. The thing about them was she could also relate in a way. It was very different when there was someone else that you cared for more than anything. "I know what you mean. I am so used to being on my own but that all changes when there is someone that you would do anything to keep them safe and happy" Alaya said with a smile. She had spent most of her life in solitude fearing her own family. Yes she did care about James but this was a completely different level. She would do anything for Seizel.

Seizel really just wished he could actually freeze time right about now, but the only way he was able to do that was with those handy hour-glasses. Too bad those were in short supply these days, but he wondered how rare artifacts even came to be in the possession of some students. Amusing as it sounded to him, he wasn't about to stop himself from escaping his own destiny if he even had one. Finally mending fences between himself and the rest of his mind he could now be at ease with Alaya. There was no sense of guilt at all with what he was doing, surely she'd understand him if he told her anything about what he was feeling right now.

Even as he was massaging her back as she sat beside him, his arm around her waist and then started to pull her into his lap. Eagerly pressing into her softly, but he kept himself there, hoping she didn't mind that spot. Seizel could easily look over her shoulder from this vantage point, but he wasn't going to attempt looking any further since that would have been rude. Even down would have been rather inappropriate, but he'd let her move back if she was more comfortable there. Yet, Seizel wouldn't mind her sitting there and his natural reaction would just perhaps have to be ignored. Not that he would get one at this rate.

Since the air was calm and serene while the stars sparkled up above them, he just contently was massaging her shoulders softly. Curiously stroking along her side following her curves, and he noticed she had quite the glorious figure. Not that he was going to comment on it, as he could have easily achieved something more than just a date that night. Seizel wasn't that type of guy as he finally just leaned over to whisper into her ear. "You know, I don't often say this, but I love you, Alaya," he admitted, blushing deeply.

She really did feel at ease with Seizel. There was no thought of regret or worry, nothing but happiness at just being next to him. She did wonder if the relationship was moving too quickly but she did feel like it didn't matter, not a whole lot. She cared for him and such emotions were not burdened by time. It was only fate if such thing existed. Alaya used to believe that love did not exist, that there was no real kindness. Her views of that changed when she met James but she was still skeptical about real love. Yet here she was. She could never deny what she was feeling at that moment.

She did not object to being shifted to his lap. She loved the feel of his hands on her back and the way he traced her sides. It was a completely different sensation that was new to her. She would of never guessed that someone's touch could be so intoxicating. Because of her father she could not stand to be touched and kept her distance. But Seizel's touch was so gentle and soothing that she couldn't even fathom fearing his touch. She was content with the moment but she wasn't sure if she was willing to go any further, not yet.

The atmosphere was perfect. The stars and the forest gave out the peaceful setting, making this night even more perfect. Even if they were just a whisper, his words echoed in her head. She wasn't sure how to respond. It came as a shock to her, catching her off guard. Nevertheless, her heart was pounding, her face red and there was a warm twisting feeling in her gut. Alaya never wanted to leave him and there was only one way she figured of describing how she felt. "Seizel...I love you too" It was the first time her her life that she had said those three words to anyone. And she couldn't be more sincere about it. She truly loved him.

Seizel was enjoying the attention he was getting from Alaya and kept it at that since he didn't know what else he could say just then to make this more interesting. Glad that she was into him as much as he was into her, nodding his head in her direction before just contently massaging her shoulders at the same time. It was a loving gesture that didn't need explaining, after all, as he just sat there enjoying the stars that seemed to sparkle with the many mysteries of the world. Nothing intrigued him more than watching those delightful sparkly orbs in the sky. Even right now, it was curious as to how they stayed up there without exploding at all, but he doubted that any one of them would turn into a supernova right away.

All that thought of destruction made him slightly amused as no one on this planet would ever see it unless a probe got close enough to even mark it happening. Even so, the video would get burned, but with their technology in the muggle world, he was surprised that there wasn't a hundred camera's being sent out in space just for that purpose. Although it was hard to avoid the moon and other planets without a man-made spacecraft flying up past the moon. Ah yes, the moon, another fact that he had to consider if Alaya could control her form better than other werewolves could on such an occurrence. As mysterious he thought the moon could be at times, it was also rather dangerous for certain species, such as werewolves.

Seizel would have to remind himself to be a little careful around her if she started changing, unless she could control her form then he'd be fine with her. A little spark of curiosity flooded behind his eyes and was soon glancing over Alaya's form wondering how beautiful she looked like as a werewolf. It was an odd thought, but one he wasn't going to push aside for too long. "Oh, whew, I was hoping that wouldn't be one of those awkward moments where I'm the only one that said it," he admitted chuckling towards her as he kissed her lips just once more.

The night was calm, the perfect setting. She looked up at the stars, always in awe at the beauty of the sky. Each brilliant array of light painting its own story across the night sky. It was almost impossible to hear every one but that did not make the experience any less amazing. There were many times when explanations were created in order to make sense of such things. Alaya knew it was important to understand what one did not know, even she would not do something without learning everything she could about that said thing. But when it came to the stars and the worlds beyond their own, she did not see the need to make sense of them.

As strange as it might seem for her, the moon always fascinated her. She did not see it as a bad thing. Yes she was forced to undergo a transformation when the moon was full but that did not mean she resented the moon. She was grateful for the moon. During the weeks of the full moon her father would leave the house to be with the pack, giving her moments of peace. And in those times she learned a very valuable skill that she believed was important for anyone, control. She did not know if full control in the wolf form was entirely possible but knowing friend from foe even if the other is not a werewolf can change so many things, as well as being aware of your actions.

It would have been somewhat awkward if she hadn't responded to his statement. She was grateful for the lack to tension and the mutual feelings between them. His lips were soft and she adored the almost melting feeling that came with it. "Good thing it wasn't. I really don't want any tension, especially with such a wonderful evening as this" She smiled as she kissed him. It was the first time that evening where she made the move. It was kind of fun. She liked how things were going but she knew that the night would have to end eventually and she was slightly dreading that.

[SEIZEL AURA CAPPER]

Seizel almost wanted to put the cosmos on question as to why love was such a strange emotion, he thought it was almost rudimentary that people used such an emotion. Even Seizel didn't like it when there was something he couldn't explain right off the top of his head, but here he was sitting with Alaya just enjoying the view. Nodding his head in return and soon kissed her back. Nothing could have made this evening better, but he knew there were twenty other things that could have made it ten times as awesome. Seizel really wasn't dreading Alaya meeting Deimos anymore considering most of his friends were exactly like him. Minus the one who he normally didn't consider a friend on the down-low, who was Maharet Rosier.

Seventh year prefect and trouble maker. Not all could see it, but he was good at reading people no matter how nice they put on a face. Seizel was the same way, manipulative, quiet, and cunning. All at the same time, but in no way was he going to use those attributes on Alaya unless he was just using her for his own goals at the moment. It was an amusing thought, but the more he thought about it the more he wished to be away from her just a little. Almost saddening him that he had thought like that, just wanting to keep his mind sane it seemed.

There were many other possibilities that were still out there and as they both looked up at the stars, he knew this night was going to end at some point. Seizel had nothing else to say and would stay out here for the entire night with Alaya.

The stars reflected off the lake and the clearing seemed to be lit in a abstract sense. She rested her head on his shoulder as she enjoyed the scenery. She wished that the night would not end but that would not be possible and she knew that this could not happen as often as she would like. There was school, the tournament, and just the annoying fact that she was a werewolf prevented some things. As long as she enjoyed the moments with him was all that truly mattered.

She knew that she wasn't going to be missed if she didn't return to the common room that night. She would do this every now and then and not go back after dinner. She had a slight pattern to the days that she would not go to the common room. And everyone bought her excuses. But because of how often she would leave there wasn't any suspicions about her. She wondered how she would explain this one. She knew that this might be one of those few cases where she would be scolded somewhat.

Right now she did not care what anyone else's reaction would be. She was happy and safe. There was no place she would rather be at that moment. There wasn't much to say but the silence was not bad in any way. She liked it because no words were needed, not in this environment.
