[VICTOIRE RENEE WEASLEY]

falling in love ,

but it's falling apart. i need to find my way back to the start.[/center]

victoire honestly didn't know what to say. she sat there at the table, staring before her. she listened to teddy's words and shrugged. "i guess,"

[/color] she replied, then turned from him and put her hand against her head, holding it up by placing her elbow on the table. she understood it was a joke and all, and she wasn't exactly mad about the joke itself. in all entirety, it was actually a cool idea. if they hadn't taken it too far, she might have actually laughed after the initial anger stage she encountered. but because of the exact manner they have pulled the prank in, she didn't find it funny.

they had basically threw her dreams into her face and then crushed them, and crushed her trust in them. jayson had turned his back on her and turned her in. sure it was a joke, but would he do that if the opportunity presented itself again? she didn't know. she hoped not, but at that exact moment victoire was wavering. and teddy had thrown in her head girl ambitions, which completely embarrassed her. it made her look weak, to think that the real headmaster was going to take away her chances of becoming head girl. she didn't think she would, anyway, which was why it had been so heartbreaking. toire wasn't meant to lead. she was obviously doing a bad job of leading the paper angels, so why would anyone give her the opportunity to lead the entire school?

she sighed, and then heard jayson speak. when he toucher her rubbing her back, victoire felt herself melt. however, he wasn't getting off that easy. she allowed him to continue, but looked up toward one of the house elves. "could we get three hot chocolates, please?"[/color] she inquired, smiling lightly at the young elf who had caught her eyes. the elf nodded hard and went off to fetch their drinks. toire bit her lower lip as she looked at teddy. she was trying to think of something to say to lighten to mood, particularly her own. she knew they felt bad for making her so upset, because clearly that wasn't their intention. victoire felt bad for getting so upset, too, but that was only in her nature to do so. she looked at jay, thinking.

"how'd you two come up with this plan, anyway?"[/color] toire asked, curious. it was a bit random, really, the whole deal. maybe they just wanted to spark the year with something interesting. well, she sure wouldn't forget that night. it's not like it was special or anything, but it was definitely memorable. toire licked her lips and then yawned, rubbing her eyes with her free hand. she wasn't quite sure when the last time the three of them got together, but it seemed like it'd been a while. although she was getting kind of sleepy, she didn't want to go back to the common room. that is, of course, unless they were to hang out there. she didn't want them to go, ever. it was a weird feeling. she was mad, of course, but would be even angrier if they'd left.

[THEODORE REMUS LUPIN]

teddy could tell that neither victoire nor jay thought his attempt at cheering her up was very good. when it came to apologizing and making things better, he just couldn't do it successfully. he wasn't used to having people upset at him for a legitimate reason, because he was usually just joking around or teasing. most of the people who took his pranks seriously were people he really didn't care too much about. he chewed on his lip, trying to think of something else to say that could clear it up. "we really didn't mean to go so far with it. we get caught up in our pranks and forget who we are dealing with" or at least, that was what he had done. he had gotten so obsessed over seeing the look of shock on her face when they revealed it was a prank, that he took it too far trying to make it so surprising for her. throwing in the head girl thing had been a terrible idea.

teddy nodded in agreement when jay mentioned hot chocolate. the house elves always made fantastic food and drinks, and did it with a polite smile as well. victoire ordered the hot drinks and the elf went running off after bowing, making him think of twinkle at home. whoever came up with the name was crazy, but the elf was always happy to see him when he returned from hogwarts. she did a really good job of taking care of his grandmother too, which he was thankful for. he didn't know how the one elf was able to remember all his grandmother\s medication, cook her favourites for dinner, clean the entire house, and still have time to be excited and throw him a small party when he returned home for the summer. but however she did it, he enjoyed it.

the plan had developed earlier this afternoon, when teddy had come in after being forced out into the rain for detention. he and jay had made plans to come down to the kitchens, which resulted in them talking about the house elves calling teddy king. and then it got to the discussion of halloween costumes, which in turn led to tricking victoire into dressing up like a court jester. which led to simply tricking victoire. "for once, i'm not going to take credit for the prank. it was jay's idea." he grinned, totally throwing jay under the bus on purpose/ "you see, my idea was to get you to attend the halloween ball dressed as a jester."
