A Birthday Wish

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana walked up to the North Tower with a long face. Her guitar was by her side but it didn't mean anything. She sat down a leg on either side of the wall, she looked over the grounds suprised by all the people out and about playing with the leaves. Placing her guitar in her lap she started a song with her favorite chord, e minor. She slighty swayed back and forth glad her balance being in check, not wanted to fall off the tower. Georgie kept glancing out towards the grounds then noticed the gardens with all the couples walking around. Georgiana wondered what her friends were up to but she stayed in the Tower playing her guitar instead of trying to find out. "What to do, What to do," she said gazing out at the distance mountains. Her birthday was just a few days away but she hadn't reminded anyone but she didn't like big birthday parties anyways, which was why she let her brother go to them with her.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan was enjoying his day off with no lessons, sitting in his dorm by an open window facing the north tower he studied for muggle studies. He knew that studying kind of beat the object of a day off but he was really trying to up his grades and wanted to study a bit more. He took a deep breath a sighed, looking over to the north tower. Someone was sat on the ledge but Logan not having a superpower for seeing things that clearly at such a distance he sighed and decided that the north tower was more peaceful to study in than his dorm as there was a group of first years chatting loudly in a group. He stood up and headed out over the grounds towards the tower. It didn't take long for him to reach the tower as the common was so close. Once up to the top Logan grinned as he saw the girl sat on the ledge. "Hey you." He grinned at his girl friend and gave her a hug.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana finished her song and leaned back against the wall watching birds fly in the spring time air. Back home fall would be coming, her favorite time a year. Instead she had to spend her favorite time back home with spring here, though it beat having winter come in two months. Glancing over her shoulder she saw Logan standing on the tower with her. "Hi," she said to him relaxing her hold on her guitar from having been playing to hug him back. "What're you doing up here?" She questioned of him, knowing he usually studied around now.

 

[Logan Stone]

Releasing her from his hug Logan joined her and sat on the ledge and looked out over the view of the school grounds. It looked like there were a fair few students around. Good thing he was up here and not down there. "Well I was in the common studying by an open window and I saw someone was sat up here and I thought it was a petty good place to study because my dorm was full of noisy first years and I couldn't concentrate." He explained finding it weird that she had been the reason for him to come up here. What were the odds of that happening, really. Still he was glad about it all the same. "What about you then. What brings you to the north tower?" He asked looking back from the view to her

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana nodded understanding where he was coming from. "Well considering you know I don't study till the day of the class I won't use that excuse," she said with a laugh before continueing on, "I needed somewhere to practice that was quiet and us Gryffindors can get very loud in the common room." Leaning over she leaned her guitar near the one foot that was on the side she should be on before sitting back up to face him again. Looking over him she noticed he had his jumper on once more and smiled, but didn't feel cold so she didn't ask for it, though the first time it was offered to her. "I don't see you brought much to study," she said wondering what he had been studying and if it was so boring he had to come up to the tower. She knew it was most likely interesting to him and maybe one day she would be fond of something that she'd want to study like she does with practicing her giutar. "If you want to study I can continue practicing my guitar and we can talk later or that could be reversed," she stating not sure if since the person he saw was her if he still wanted to study or if he would want to talk instead.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan nodded and laughed as she said that he already knew that she did not like studying, this was very much the truth. He knew most people were like that although he could not be so last minute at anything, he liked to be prepared and organised at everything. It was something he had learned to do when he had lived with his parents, he had had to do everything himself so he needed to be how he was now. He rolled his eyes at her comment. "Guh Gryffindors, arent they just so annoying." Hejoked with a laugh. "Only joking." He said making sure not to offend her by his last comment. He didn't want to have an argument with her, that was how he and Lily had split up although that had been about his studying. "Nope, iv already done enough studying to be able to relax with my amazing gil friend for the rest of the day." He said with a loving smile as he placed his hand on the bottom of her legs. "How had the new school year been for you?" He asked,l interested in how she had been coping. He hoped she was doing ok with lessons and such, he certainly was

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana rolled her eyes at Logan knowing he was only joking. "Well I could say the same with Ravenclaws, always taking up the tables in the Library, it's no wonder I can't study in there. I'd have to sit on the floor," she joked with a laugh. Of course there were plenty of tables in the library to sit at, and many other places in the castle to study but she was still a slacker when it came to classes. Glancing at her guitar she pushed the idea of practicing out of her head knowing she'd have time for it later but not much with Logan. "I decided on Herbology this semester, the other choices were pretty dull. I don't have Smith till next semester which is awful. I wish we could take classes both terms it'd be so much cooler and less of a chance for me to forget things, ya know?" She said knowing he might feel the same way but he was less likely to forget things then she was. Staring at his hand she didn't have anything else to say but a warm feeling was growing over her and she wished she knew how to do that to a person, as she was never good with showing emotions through body movements and touching. Everything always came from her mouth like the sigh the escaped her lips as she leaned back against the wall behind her, but it was a happy one that is for sure.

 

[Logan Stone]

A smile crossing his lips once again as she said about all of the Ravenclaws taking up all of the tables in the library. He never usually stayed in the library much to study, preferring it on a higher level by an open window. This was why he liked to study in his dorm room most of the time. "Well some of us have to keep our grades up to make this place look good." He said with a wink. He was only joking with her, he didn't like to use house stereotypes against anyone as it was only after all a stereotype and did not mean much most of the time. "Iv just done Herbology. I still find everything the same about all of the lessons except what are being taught in them. I have him this semester which im happy about although it makes no real difference to me after all I do live with him so i see him all the time." He said with a shrug. He did like defence against the dark arts and having Riley as his Professor made it better for him but he liked all his lessons and all but one of his Professors. "Are you ok?" He asked her as she sighed and rested her head against the wall. He hoped that he wasn't annoying her or keeping her from something

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Rolling her eyes Gwen watchced Logan as he spoke about classes. She flashed him a small smile when he talked about Riley Smith, she didn't really know much about Logan it seemed. She did know that he lived with the Professor but it wasn't ever explain exactly how they were related. Logan had an older brother, she was sure the name was Mark but then she would second guess herself on the name considering Logan talked about him just about as much as he talked about himself. "I'm fine, actually I'm really happy you came up here," she stated to him. She really enjoyed spending time with Logan and she knew his studies were important so she did feel bad whenever she asked to him to hang out when he studied so it was nice that he had come on his own free will to see who was up here. "I'm turning 13 in a few days," she told him with a smile. She'd finally be considered a teenager a big milestone for her. "And I'm sort of going out for the Gryffindor Quidditch team," she said in a small voice unsure of how he would take the news. If she made the team it would mean they would be playing against each other if he went out for Ravenclaw team again. She wouldn't mind it'd be another thing they could take about considering she wasn't born into the wizardying world and didn't know much about it.

 

[Logan Stone]

A cool breeze came through the window and brushed coolly across his neck, making his hairs stand on end as it sent a shiver down his spine. It may have been warming up but that was not to say that it was still not chilly to be outside and being as much of a push over as Logan was it was still winter in his mind. Logan was glad to hear her tell him that she was fine, he was worried that he was interrupting her with something or she was getting frustrated with him. Not having experience when it came to girls he was not sure when to not be around one and when to. He just went on what he thought was best. So far it seemed to be working as he was still with Georgie. He wondered if his looks had anything to do with it, he didn't think so but his brother had told him that he had had so many girl friends who had not liked him but had only stayed with him because of how he looked. Logan was sure that that was not the case here, she seemed too interested in him that his face. "Well I'm glad that I have made you happy." He said to her quietly. As he looked out of a window an owl flew past, a white snowy one, he smiled slightly. Someone was mailing home, or at least mailing someone about something. He had not sent his owl anywhere with a letter in a while,. he would have to write to Mark and Adele soon, give them an update on things. When he heard Georgie tell him that she was thirteen soon he grinned at her. "Well happy birthday in advance. What do you think you will be getting off people?" He asked her with a smile. He had not known it was her birthday soon, he would have to try and find something for her quickly or give her a late birthday present when Brightstone was open. "Oh cool. If you go for Beater il have to try and not hurt you." He joked with a wink. He would try and not hurt her when they were in a match, he didn't want to be the cause of her breaking a bone or anything like that.

Phew that was long

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana jumped from her spot on the legde to the ground. She almost caused her guitar to fall over and hit a nasty pile of owl poo but she saved it just in time. Smiling she leaned over and hugged Logan the biggest hug she could manage without fearing of knocking him off the ledge. "Thank you," she whisphered to him as she put her head to his chest. She hadn't been really hugged in a while by him besides their hello and goodbye hugs so she wanted this one to last. "If I make it, I'll have to make sure I don't hurt you," she said with a laugh. By the way he said it before she knew it was a joke and she had always thought of going for chaser anyways but lately she had been thinking it would be more fun to be a beater, good aiming practice for when she went home and played baseball with the kids in the neighborhood. She knew she skipped his question about presents but she honestly had nothing in mind of what she wanted except for them be to together for a long time, of course those were just young girl dreams she never had any idea how long they would actually last.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan jumped at Georgie's sudden movement. He had not expected that in the slightest, she almost knocked her guitar over. Still slightly stunned when she hugged him Logan returned her hug. "Urm your welcome." He said to her slowly, unsure of what to say. As he recovered himself she began to talk to him about Quidditch. A smile spreading across his face again. "Il be too quick for you to hurt me." He said with a laugh. He knew that if they did face each other in a match he would stay clear of her, like the other side of the pitch kind of away. Just aim for other players. Her skipping his question about what she wanted for her birthday did not go a miss to him but he did not want to bring it up, he guessed she wanted to be surprised. "So what was the cause of your little outburst a second ago?" He asked tilting his head to the side slightly in a confused sort of look

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana laughed into his chest at his response. She wasn't known for outbursts so she wasn't suprised that he was in shock from her hug. Climbing back up next to him she leaned against him. "Of course you would be," she said thinking about the Wheelbarrow race. Georgie wasn't sure what to tell him, or how to exactly phrase it. She knew she wasn't very good with showing emotion he always had some sort of gesture to remind her that he liked her but she never knew what to do exactly. "I just, well, you," she said looking up at him. Their faces were close enough for once that she could see the color of his eyes, usually he was to tall for her to see much above his shoulders. Smiling she looked over his face before glancing down towards the ground in embarasment of her outburst.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan chuckled slight and raised an eye brow. He was unsure if what she had just said to him was sarcasm or if she really meant it. He didn't really care about it and put his arm around her when she leant against him, enjoying the closeness of them. "Hm. I see." He said unsure about what to say to her now. He drummed his finger tips against the ledge for a few moments as he thought about what to say. "So lovely weather we are having." He said before laughing. Not exactly a very smart thing to say but he had said it as something to laugh at rather than something to talk about.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana smiled but she still had to audition for the team and most likely there'd be older students who've played going for the same positions. "I'll try keeper or beater, I think," she said unsure of which one would actually be more fun for her. Georgie turned red all over at his statement, he didn't seem to know what to say either; which was the one reason she never displayed her emotion through her motions much. She kept it on her face though occasionly when she was very happy she'd have alittle skip in her step. "Hmph," she laughed into his chest where her face was hiding still waiting for the blood to flow away.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan bit his lip as he thought for a moment as he thought of an answer to give her to help her decide which position she would prefer to take on. "Well beater is more strenuous and tiring. Keeper can be a little more relaxed because you only have to guard the posts which means only when he ball comes on your side." He said as he rested his cheek on her head as she pouted at him. He chuckled slightly as she laughed in to his chest. "What made you wan't to join the team. I thought you didn't lie to play. You rather watch." He said wondering why she wanted to play now when she seemed against it at Brightstone. "Although I do know thing that a girl is allowed to change her mind." He said with a laugh as he gave her a little hug squeeze.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana nodded into his chest listening to him explain the different goods and bads of the positions. "I may be an alternate anyways being that I'm only a second year," she said figuring she shouldn't let her hopes get up before the list was posted. Glancing up at him was hard to do with his head on hers so she didn't try though she wanted to see his face to know exactly how he was feeling about being on an opposing team. "I don't know. I enjoyed flying last year and well things have changed already since we've come back from break. It sounds like fun plus it's the only sport in the school," she stated aloud. She smiled at his hug and wondered how'd it be if she was keeper during a game and his captain told him he needed to knock her out. The game might cause tension between them but it'd be easy enough to sort it out she believed.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan felt at ease right now as he felt Georgie in his arms talking softly to himabout Quidditch. Something whoch now interested the both of them. He felt like he could stay here for hours with her just talking about anything and everything. He could remember before he had began dating her that he had said to himself not to have a girl friend until he left school but he was glad he had not kept that promise to himself, Georgie was one of the best things to happen to him since starting school and he would hate to not be with her now. "Well im glad your enjoying it. I think we should make bets before matches to see who wins. Like if you win i have to do your home work for a week sort of thing." He said playfully thinking about the sight of doing a third years homework. Seeing as he had already done that year it should be easy. Also a good way of revising something he had learnt in the past. A smile crossed his face at the thought.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana smiled wondering if betting with him would be a good idea. He knew more about the sport and teams he could easily win. "And if you win? What do you get? I'm not doing your homework, trust me it'll be failed marks everytime if I did," she said knowing she hadn't any idea what he was doing as a fourth year. "Though you could just do it now anyways and tutor me when the tests come closer," she said sitting up. Staying close to him she looked down over the school wondering what everyone else was doing.

A thought passed her mind that she had been thinking about for the past few days. Looking at Logan she smiled before going on with her next question for him. "Logan? What is the plan? For us I mean," she added to clear things up for him though he was smart she didn't want any confusion. Georgiana was still young, she didn't know all that the heart had to offer but with Logan she felt good, like at home.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan pursed his lips as he thought about how to answer her question. There was nothing which he wanted if he won. "A hug and a kiss." He said grinning at her as he squeezed her in his arms slightly. He had verything that he wanted. He didn't need his work doing because he enjoyed that and got top marks. He didn't need anything which he didn't already have. "That sounds fun, I can totally do that. Brush up on my own knowledge in the process as well, kill two birds with one stone." He said thinking about him tutring someone else. It was certainly a strange thought but with his knowledge it should not be too hard and as they were around the same age heknew the best ways to explain and show things in an easy way to learn them

her next question made him bite his lip. He had not been expecting it and was not sure was to say. He had never had to answer that question before and had never really thought about it. Only being fourtenn after all there were other things on the teenagers mind which took over the future prospect of their relationship. He thought for a second trying to word a reply, with no real success. "Urm well im not sure. I like you a lot and I want to be with you all the time." He said scratching the back of his neck awkwardly as he spoke unevenly to her hoping he was not saying the wrong thing to upset her. "Why whats your plan?" He asked curiously wondering if she had been planning teir future together like he had been told other girls did when they had boy friends.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Gwen smiled at his answer, it seemed so simple and she knew she'd get more out of the deal if she won. But then again he'd most likely get a dinner as well if he kept being sweet. "You're very predictable, ya know?" She stated not really intending for it to be a question. "A Ravenclaw thristy for knowledge, nerds to homework for others in schools across the world," she explained. She hadn't actually thought he would take the deal, but if he helped her study it'd give them more time together which wouldn't be all too bad.

Georgiana wasn't suprised when he asked the questioned back but she still had to think about it before answering like he had. "I like where we are. I mean it's all new to me, you'll always be the more experienced one between us. I guess I was just doubting that you'd want to always be with me," she stated her last statement come out slowly as she thought about each word before she said them. She glanced over at him and realized they hadn't ever kissed on the lips before. It was suppose to be special and with someone you cared about, at least that's what her father had always told her. "I do really like you," she whisphered to him. She was back to leaning against him and couldn't see his face while she talked.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan laughed and gave a small shrug at her comment about being predictable. He didn't try to be spontaneous or unpredictable. He never really saw the point for being like that. "I know." He said happily with a grin on his face as he said so. "Ravenclaws are smart, Hufflepuffs are emotional, Slytherin are proud and up themselves and Gryffindors are brave." He said telling her the outlining personalities everyone split the houses in to. Although it was not something he tended to do it didn't mean he didn't know about it.

Nodding slowly he listened to her tell him about how she felt about them. He was glad to hear that she liked how they were now, as it was what he felt too. "Why wouldn't I want to be with you? I wouldn't have asked you out if I didn't think iI would like you after a while." He said as he ran his hand through her hair. He was a little awkward about this topic but he had never had this conversation with anyone before so of course he was awkward talking about this. "I like you too." He said to her softly as he looked down at her when she looked up at him. He flashed her a sweet smile, letting his Veela charm take over for a few moments as he did so.

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana shook her head still suprised he actually agreed to do her homework. Leaning over she grabbed her bag from next to her guitar and pulled out a few papers. "Alright here. Herbology and Transfiguration," she said holding out the papers with a smile on her face. He would most likely laugh when he saw her answers for the Transfiguation paper, she hadn't payed attention in that class ever and everything was a guess.

Georgiana looked down knowing the answer wasn't as simple as the question, it still pained her to think about her mother leaving but that was the main reason she never really trusted people. "People change their minds, all the time. I just want to trust you, so I guess if I get to annoying or anything tell me. I don't want to end up like my parents," she stated softly to him. She grinned at his reply to her and moved to look at him straight on. "You have dimples," she said softly to him with a laugh.

 

[Logan Stone]

Logan looked down and watched Georgie take hold of her bag and retrieve some bits of paper. It took him a second to register what they were before she told him. He scanned over the paper before taking hold of them. As Transfiguration was his favourite lesson he looked at that paper first. A chuckle escaping him as he read it. "Inanimate to Animate Transfiguration. Please give me a challenge." He said light heartedly rolling his eyes and taking a pen out of his back pocket, having muggle studies they had to use pen and paper instead of quills and parchment. He had a pen on him now for the simple reason that he had forgotten to remove it. He stood up from the ledge and keeled on the floor, resting the parchment on the ledge he began to explain what Inanimate to Animate Transfiguration was and how it was performed. It didn't take him long, his quick and neat handwriting taking up a good half page explaining her lesson. "Here you go, Transfig done." He said with a grin as he scammed the Herbology homework before shaking his head. "I can't do this. Its your own personal notes about the mandrake you have been working with. I don't know what you did so i an't do this for you." He said handing her the parchment and putting his muggle pen back in to his pocket.

Standing back up on to his feet the young teenage veela stretched out and chuckled slightly at her. "I wouldn't worry yourself. I never do something I'm not one hundred percent sure about. I'm not easily bored or annoyed as I'm sure you have figured out." He said looking at her strangely at her next comment. He felt himself get slightly embarrassed so he giggled. "I know I do." He said putting his head in his hands out of embarrassment. Although he knew that he was Veela Logan had never been happy with people commenting on his featured. He was not his own favourite subject like other people. "And when you smile the whole world stops and stares." He said said softly to her with a smile as he lowered his hands down. "Because your amazing." He finished wondering if he had just been too cheesy for her or if he would make her feel special. he hoped it was the second one

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Georgiana shook her head when he got to work on her homework. She decided to continue staring out at the grounds while he worked. She missed his warmth next to her and his arms hugging her but atleast he was being productive now. "Darn, well. At least I enjoy Herbology," she said taking the papers from him. His hand writing was too neat, she'd have to copy everything down later before handing anything in. Georgie then put her papers away as she listened to him talk.

Georgiana smiled at him when he acted embarrassed. "Don't worry I think it's very nice," she said to him. He next statement made her turn around to face him. Her cheeks were lightly pink from the comment. "You forgot, For Awhile. I may be no Ravenclaw but my father is a muggle, I'm very versed in old muggle songs," she admitted feeling foolish for bringing it up but she hadn't known how else to respond without making herself look like a crazy person hugging him once again. "But, Thank You," a grin adorned her face now as she looked up at him.
