Dinner .

"That's exactly why I asked someone else to get it!" She scooted over. "Sit down, it's fine, there's always plenty of space. Someone's always off studying and skipping dinner in this house."

"Time heals stuff I guess... I feel like staying up late tonight."

"I'm gonna sleep... I only got, like, two hours last night."

"That is tray suckish."

"What?"

"That you didn't get much sleep."

"... Yeah, but what's 'tray'?"

"I think is very in Spanish."

"... Right ... Anyway, yeah. The Amy thing, you being sick, panicking about the chair..."

"Sit down! And hand over the apology offering!" She grinned at him.

"Did you win the duel?"

~~~
Alex sat down and pushed it over, a notable slice taken out of it.

Serenity stared at it, then looked at him. "You took a bite!" She immediately started eating it anyways, but glared at him. "That's not fair!"

"... In a sense."

"Congrats!"


"No, I had to have a little slice... You try passing up a piece!" He said in a joking, innocent voice.

"... what if she took it again ... Oh, damn."

"Explain?"

Serenity just stared at him in disbelief. "Fine! I declare, as payment for EATING part of the apology offering, you have to go on a date with me. Tomorrow, actually. First thing in the morning. And, by that, I mean eleven o' clock. I'm not a morning person."

Kelsi entered the Great Hall. She sat at the Hufflepuff table.



[[Hey, guys, after this we should do a school day in November, then do a Hogsmeade trip in December??]]

[I don't care, anything is cool ^_^]

Alex grinned and said in a fake scared tone, "ANything but that!" Then nodded and happily said, "Sure."

[WE ARE NOT GONNA BULLDOZE THROUGH THIS YEAR. 8|]

[[OKAY. TWO SCHOOL DAYS IN NOVEMBER. A whole one takes long enough. Then another weekend. IN NOVEMBER.]]

[Alright ^^;]

[Yeah. Even if it is boring- I've got some stuff planned! Bulldozing through the year, as Liv says, isn't good to get stuff you planned done. If we do go months, we should do the days, like a whole WEEK. That isn't enough time to do anything that I wanted to do this year- and what about OTHER PEOPLE? They might have stuff planned too. I say we take a week out of each month. Two days- it's not anything.]

Serenity smiled at him. Again. "Great! I'll see you tomorrow, then." She pushed away the chocolate cake, done, and went back to the mashed potatoes smothered in barbeque sauce.

"Alright." Alex then grabbed a slice of pizza.

Kelsi took herself some small peas and some sliced turkey. She drank her pumpkin juice. "Weekends are boring." She mumbled to herself with a straight face.

[[A week it is! After this dinner, we'll start the next week.]]
