Dan was sat on the grass in the Hogwarts Gardens. It had been a nice day, weather wise. Far to hot for Dan to sit in lessons. They had a break now, but Dan was out of uniform because he had been skiving lessons today. He didn't want to look like a student, even if he didn't look old enough not to be one. Dan had been hanging out for quite a while now and was getting bored of avoiding everyone. So seeing as it was break, Dan looked around to see if there was anyone around that was worth approaching. He spotted a girl, yeah Dan thought she was pretty. But Dan's attitude and general rough up-bringing, if you could call it that, meant that he didn't always feel comfortable just strolling up to a random girl and start talking to her. It was extremely strange in his eyes. But after all, that's how you met people, but Dan was still learning to accept that.
 
Rhi leaned against the tree she was sitting on and sighed happily..She as no class for two hours and decided to spend it outside the common room..She had been holed in the common room after the disturbing news she got..Lucas seemed confused now his old love was back..Shrugging her shoulders,she glanced around to see who was there..There were no people quite until her gaze fell on Dan Adams,a sixth year on their house..He was also looking at her..She waved hello at him but never speak..She knew Dan from afar and pass along him along hallways..But since they are one year apart,they never socialize..
 
Dan, being in a reasonably good mood decided to approach Rhianne when she waved at him. He nervously walked up to her then sat next to her. They were more on a 'hello in the corridor' basis then anything else. But he knew her name and he had to try and socialise even if he didn't want to. "Hey Rhi." He said, taking his place next to her against the tree. "You Alright?" He asked, a little awkwardly. They had never had a proper conversation before as she was the year below him. But Dan was bored, so he thought that the awkwardness would be worth it eventually. 'Who better to talk to than a pretty girl?' Dan thought to himself.

[Sorry it's taken so long to reply. :) ]
 
Rhi smiled as she took out her wand and summoned for her guitar when she noticed that Dan approached her..Just as her guitar reached her,Dan sat down and greeted her,"Hey Rhi.."she shifted her position as she smiled.."Hey Dan..How are you??",she asked warmly.."I'm fine..Just being holed up in the common room and never got enough sleep the other night..",she lowered her voice.."I went to the Forbidden Forest last night and saw Robert Kain there..",she admitted with a warm blush creeping on her cheeks..She strummed her guitar and hummed a love song..
 
Dan watched as Rhi summoned her guitar. He smiled then replied to her question. "I'm getting there I suppose, life's not so bad today as it usually is..." He said pulling a leaf from one of the lower branches, and ripping it off. Dan was a little shocked when Rhi mentioned that she had been in the forbidden forest with Robert Kain. He wasn't familiar with the name, but as little as Dan actually knew Rhi, he never thought that she would be one to break the rules. And the forbidden forest was quite a big rule to break. "Oh and what would you be doing in the forest with this Robert eh?" Dan questioned jokingly, as he nudged Rhi a softly a few times in the side. As if to urge her into telling him as a laugh.
 
Rhi smiled as she strummed more on her guitar..She laughed as Dan nudged her into telling him the reason..She shrugged.."Nah,it was accidental..But seems like fate..",she began,"I just walked there and found him already there..We end up talking and began to settle things for our relationship..And....",she trailed off.."He invited me to the Yule Ball..",she finished with a laugh..
 
Dan smiled as Rhi said that Robert had invited her to the Yule Ball. He couldn't be bothered to go himself, but if she had found someone to go with then Dan was pleased for her. "Well that's great Rhi..." Dan trailed off, he had always found Rhi quite pretty. Even though he didn't know her that well. But Dan hoped that he would get to know Rhi better over the next few days. "So are you to urrmmm....an item?" Dan said, struggling to find the right word.
 
Rhi laughed even more.."Thanks,it's our first time to go together..",she admitted with a blush..She hummed again when Dan asked her.."So are you to urrmmm....an item?" Dan said..Rhi looked at him..She raised her eyebrow and smiled.."Well,yeah..We've been together since our third year and broke up at fourth year and now..",she trailed off.."Well..the rest is history..",she smiled..
 
Dan wondered what had happened when Rhi said that they broke up in 3rd year. Dan frowned for a second before Rhi said that the rest was history. "That's really good...I'm happy for you." He said kindly. "True love never fails..." He said, laughing a little at his quote. "So I take it you didn't summon your guitar over here for no reason...written any songs?" He questioned. Dan wasn't really into making music, but he loved listening to it.
 
Rhi smiled as she strummed her guitar.."Thanks..",she replied kindly.."So I take it you didn't summon your guitar over here for no reason...written any songs?" When Dan asked about her writing songs,she nodded.."Yeah,mostly if I have the time..Most songs were made while hang around the common room..",she began a set of melodic chords that she once played in the common room last week..
 
Dan smiled as Rhi played some chords. He liked them, she was good at guitar and they sounded good. "Aww that's awesome, I wish I had a hobby..." Dan trailed off, realising that he wasn't really into much apart from causing trouble. "Hey...You could get all sorts of ideas for songs in this place." He said, looking around him. "I mean, Hogwarts is huge..." He finished, with a little laugh. "Have you written any love songs for Rob yet then?" He asked teasingly, as he shot Rhi a cheeky wink.
 
Rhi laughed as she launched the chords into its climax and finally ended.."Aww that's awesome, I wish I had a hobby...",Dan said..Rhi smiled as she exhaled.."Thanks..You can start your hobby with planting flowers..",she joked as she gestured the garden.."Hey...You could get all sorts of ideas for songs in this place." He said, looking around him. "I mean, Hogwarts is huge..." He finished, with a little laugh..Rhi nodded,"Yeah..I already made lots while I hang in the common room..Once in the lakefront in my favorite tree..",she blushed since the tree was where she and Rob had their first talk.."Have you written any love songs for Rob yet then?" He asked teasingly, as he shot Rhi a cheeky wink..She scowled playfully..She punched him on the shoulder before she answered,"Haha..Well,yeah..Half of the songs in the common room is for him and the one in the lakefront..",she admitted.."There I said it..",she added..
 
Dan laughed as Rhi punched him on the shoulder then admitted to writing love songs for Rob. "Awww well that's kinda sweet..." Dan said, knowing that what he had just said sounded nothing like himself at all. Dan would never say that sort of thing, not even to a girl. "Can I hear one?" He asked cheekily, having grown a little soft-spot for Rhi over the previous few minutes. He thought he'd try and convince her to sing him one of her songs. "Go Ooonnn...you know you want to...for me?" Dan said, shooting Rhi his best puppy-dog face.
 
Rhi smiled at Dan.."Thanks..",she replied.."Can I hear one?" He asked cheekily,to which she laughed..She shook her head.."No way..Rob hasn't got the chance to hear it yet..",she protested.."Go Ooonnn...you know you want to...for me?" Dan said, shooting Rhi his best puppy-dog face..She frowned but immediately give in.."Okay just a few lines..",she smiled..She then started to strum a couple chords to her guitar and began to sing..It was one song she made at the common room,the one that tells about their first real talk..She just stopped before the chorus and smiled.."There you go..",she said..
 
Rhi smiled and played with her guitar,still silent..She really hoped Rob would like it.."Thanks..",she said..She then noticed Dan's voice trailed off..She frowned slightly.."Hey,"she nudged him,"You suddenly became silent there..",she added..
 
Rhi shrugged and smiled.."Oh,come on..",she urged.."Spit it out..I know something's bothering you..",she added..She smiled at Dan..
 
Dan wondered whether he should tell Rhi how he truly felt about her. It was something that Dan had always found difficult, and the fact that Rhi was already taken made things twice as worse. Dan paused for a few seconds before speaking up. "Well...urm...maybe I've got a soft spot for girls who can write such brilliant love songs..." Dan said, smiling at Rhi nervously as he awaited her reply. Dan didn't want to blurt the truth out loud and clear, subtly would do for him.
