Once again Annie could not get to sleep. Ah these stupid things! she yelled inside her head as she rolled out of bed. I had enough! A flurry of curses filled the Hufflepuff girls' dorm. Gotta remain calm, Annie thought with an evil grin as she nursed her now sore hand. But alas I will never be!
Giving a dramatic sniff she finally managed to get dressed and she snuck out of the common room. Her gaze fell on the forbidden forest. Many a time comes when one must go adventuring, she thought and her evil grin broaden. I can add that to one of my 'famous phrases'. She laughed out loud as she took the route to the towers. She loved to stargaze. It seemed to calm her down. Nothing can calm me down, she thought with a huge grin. And that was the truth. Unless it was a threat then she would remain her proper self.
The oldest Appleby had finally reached the towers. She jumped in glee as she sat herself gently upon the edge. Perfect night for lovers, she thought and made a face. No man will keep me sane enough. She had to stifle a laugh. Her ears perked up as she heard footsteps. Behold! I have a visitor, she thought to herself, amused. Who on earth would be coming up this late at night?

The bright light bobbed in front of Brian as he made his way up the tower.As he reached the top he extinguished the light from his wand.He had got an alarm from the sensor spells set up there by the prefects.The were turned on at night and since he was the Ravenclaw boy prefect and their tower was closest to the others he had been called to check it out.He had his wand ready to stun or anything else that came to mind.As he came to the top he saw Annie.He lowered his wand.He faintly smile."Hello Annie"He said."Your not supposed to be up here"He said even though he knew that wouldn't hinder her any.

Annie cackled when she saw it was Brian. She immediately jumped off the edge and leaped at him. She grined evily and punched his arm in their usual greeting. She cackled at his comment.
"Oh please as if any rules could render me inside the cosy common room where fits from bordom can occur," she said and then sniffed. She wrapped her arm around his neck, putting him into a headlock. "And whyhaven't you written me at all this summer?" she inquired evily. She was enjoying this. She loved to put her fake power over people when she wanted to. Her eyes started to glitter evily-a dangerous hint to her long time friends and her little sisters. Expectally to her kid sister Miles. Ah the happy memories, she thought, grinning evily down at Brian.

He tried to wiggle out of her headlock but with no luck."I wrote your sister Hallie"He said with a grin.He had wrote her sister.He was surprised that she hadn't told her."I'm surprised that you didn't see Plato flying around all the time"He said grinning even more.Plato was his owl.He poke her in between the ribs with his wand."Now let me go before I hex you into next week"He said."Shall I put pimples all over your unblemished face"He said still trying to wiggle out again."I'd hate to ruin your pretty face"He said instantly blushing at the fact that he had called her pretty.

A slow and evil grin started to spread more across her face. "I was out of the house every singal day this summer. Tried to pick fights with neighborhood boys and the likes." she added with the full look of mischief in her eyes.
She squeaked as she felt the poke. "Keep all wands to your self at all times," she joked as she let him go. She'll get him later. She always did. Annie pretended to gasp in fury. "Evil person," she sniffed but then cackled at the sudden blush. "Aw Brian likes me way to much," she teased, poking him in the ribs. "Admit it Brian. Admit it," she was laughing.

Brian blushed even more as she said that."I do not!"He shouted embarrassed.He raised his wand."Say i don't "He shouted even though he did a bit.He had known her a while and they had been friends forever but being with her was simply not an option.He was with Pansy.Not that Annie knew.Not that anyone knew.They had to keep it a secret.However keeping their relationship secret had been getting hard lately.Sooner or later he would be forced to give her a choice.Him or her Dark Mark friends.He guess he did like Annie a bit.He lowered his wand."Maybe"He said through tight lips.

Annie's eyes grew wide. She could feel the playfulness atmosphere vanished, bringing in a bit of akwardness. The wind shifted a little, growing colder. It was all of her doing. She looked away and let her gaze her gaze fall on the lake. Whenever she got angry or what not the wind would shift a little. She did not understand why it happened. It just did. She could feel herself shifting into her animagus form-which was that of a white tiger. No, she told herself sternly. Not this time. Not inside the castle. She bit her lower lip to keep it from trembling. Annie was shaking all over. She did not know what to say.

Brian felt the mood shift so fast.Hw watched her tring not to change into her animagus form.He felt like he shouldn't have said what he said.But that would be lying,the voice inside his head told him."Are you OK"Brian said his voice trembling."Annie?"He said carefully.He didn't know what was happening.Did she feel the same way?He felt the wind whipping around his body,his cloak flapping in the wind.He felt his hand slip to his wand in his pocket,it was instincts,he didn't know if she would attack him or what.

Annie took a deep breath. Her hair ruffled in the now light wind. Lightening suddenly sparked in the sky. She smiled as it grew uncomfortably closer. She slowly held out her hand. Lightening didn't hurt her like most people. It was a part of her. She turned sparkling eyes to her long time friend.
"Do I look okay?" her voice was a little harsh. She didn't mean for it to come out like that. She reached out and the lightening jumped into the middle of her palm. She smiled sadly as she started playing with it, running her fingers through it. It seemed to bring about a peace of calm to her.
[OOC: I have my mind on Tamora Pierce right now. Which would make sense because one of her books are right next to me.]

The lightning moved around fast.Brian almost flinched.Brian could do some things that you couldn't dream of but this was out of his league.His eyes were a bit wide.But even through this he still had to admire her beauty.She was just so fierce.He kind of laughed at her question."Of course"He said."Why wouldn't you"He asked with a look of puzzlement on his face.What was going on?

Annie just rolled her eyes. She closed her hand and the lightening vanished. She sighed and jumped back onto the edge, perfectly balancing herself. There seemed to be a calm and eerie peaceful look on her face. Her expression was quiet smooth, yet her eyes held a hurtful glaze to them.
"Allright," her voice was also a little hurt. "Ima say something that I would have never worked up the nerve before to say." she took a deep breath. "I liked you. I always have. But it would appear that you already have someone else in mind for you,"

Brian noticed the hurt in her voice.He liked her for the longest time also.She liked him.She actully liked him.He took stepped closer to her.Whoa,whoa,wait a second.How did she know that."How do suppose that?"He said his voice trembling.He would probably have left Pansy for Annie.It was just to stressful to keep up the scret relationship.He stepped even closer.

Annie looked at him with a hard look. "From your reaction dummy," she said lightly. The playful look was starting to come back in her little by little. "I thought from your reaction that you would be in another relationship now," she did her best to keep her voice gentle. She silently cursed herself for her emotions. It was hard for her to control her emotions and temper. She sighed as she started to play with her hair, which bore a gold streak. It was her animagus mark.

Brian nodded as he looked at her."Yeah,yeah,I am"He said quietly.He really wanted to have a relationship with Annie.She was funny,sweet,didn't take any crap,and not to mention she was beautiful."But lately its not been working out very well"He said still looking done."I really like you"He said looking up at her.He would probably break up with Pansy.She wouldn't like it but it just wasn't working.He hoped she would understand.But it all depended on Annie.

Annie raised an eyebrow. Interesting, she mused to herself. Very interesting indeed. Suddenly she had a million questions for him. But she decided to keep it to herself. "Are you saying that because you want to or is it really not working?" her voice was soft and gentle. She had changed her eyes to a clear cyrstal blue. She perked up a bit when he had said that he liked her. "Well then silly why didn't you tell me in the first place?" she wanted to know.
