earlier that day an own had arrived at beauxbattons academy of magic addressed for Praneil Pati. he had quickly read the contents and frowned. it said that his cousin was getting married over the summer and that he was expected to play dhol at part of the event. he wasn't happy. he hadn't touched his drum at all during school time since he had started the school, instead it had lain under his bed, next to a pile of first year books, and a couple of list socks and a pair of underwear that had gone missing a while ago (thankfully they were clean when he had lost them). today he dragged the barrel shaped instrument out from the bed and brushed some of the dust of the case before heading into the grounds. the drum was loud and very indian sounding. although he loved the instrument, he didn't like how indian it sounded. when he was finally sure he had found the best place for him to practice, he unzipped the casing and checked the drums tuning. it was in perfect condition as that was how it had been charmed. he then picked up the drum and started playing, tentative at first but after a while he started picking up confidence. once he had played through the pice he was meant to play he flicked his wand at a CD player, although it liked like a muggle machine it was able to play whatever music he felt like. he started to play along loosing himself to the music as it was more his style a mix of traditional and modern.

the music will be something like this (I do know that it is a girl playing on the video but you get the gist.
 
Once again Lilith was out on the Quidditch Pitch. She was starting to get nerves about the winter break that was coming up. She had to be around to help her sister Eden with stuff now that she was pregnant and she had a sort of mock try out for a couple of Quidditch teams. If they liked how she played than they could offer her a spot on their team once she was out of school. All these things where in her mind that she lost track of the snitch. Looking around Lilith saw the snitch heading right for a boy playing what looked like an over sized drum. Leaning foreword on her Amethyst Streak. Lilith raced to catch the snitch before it got to the forest and would be lost forever. Reaching out and snatching it from the air just inches from where the boy was sitting. Lilith whipped her broom to the left when she realized who it was. "Oh hi there Praneil." Lilith said with a smile on her face. Sitting on her broom a few feet off the ground Lilith wondered what he was up to and if he wanted to be left alone.
 
Praneil was lost in his drumming. he didn't notice the small ball flying just in front of his face, it wasn't until he saw someone flying towards him that he ducked out of the way before they hit him. once the flyer had stopped he saw that it was Lilith "Hey Lilith, good catch" he said smiling. there was something about Lilith that drew his attention, he wasn't sure if it was her constant energy, or something else but he was glad that she was was around. he waved his wand at the CD player and the music stopped. and with a last dun-dun-dun he stopped playing and put the drum down. he could do with a break the sound of the drums was echoing around his head.
 
Lilith grinned. "Thanks almost lost it there for a second. I am just glad that I didn't run into you." Lilith said as she stuffed the snitch into her pocket. Hopping off the broom Lilith plopped down on the grass next to her friend. Looking at the thing that he was holding. Lilith tilted her head to the side and to the other. "Erm Praneil what is that thing?" Lilith asked as she pulled her broom down to the ground next to her. It looked interesting but Lilith was still not sure what it was or ever what it was for. It was some sort of drum or something close to it that was for sure. "So what have you been up to?" Lilith said as she started to unlace her shin guards. She was done for the day and she wanted out of some of the gear.
 
"you shouldn't have admitted that, i thought that it was all part of some master plan" he said lightheartedly. he sat down next to Lilith and lightly put his arm around her shoulders. "that is my Dhol, it is an indian drum, it is played with these" he said pointing to the two sticks one was thicker and hooked and the other was long and thin. "I've been doing normal things, working relaxing and whatever else there is to do around here" he said letting his arm fall bask to his side when she unlaced her shin guards "how about you, been u to anything interesting" he asked wondering how the girl had been.
 
Lilith leaned against Praneil it was nice resting against someone. "We will just pretend that you didn't hear that than." Lilith poked Praneil lightly in the side. It was nice hanging out with her friend once again. It seemed that they kept getting together and than one thing or another would cause them to be apart. 'That's cool are you practicing for something?" Lilith couldn't help but want to know more about Praneil. When Praneil removed his arm from around Lilith she felt sad for a moment. "Oh you know its the same for me as well. Quidditch and I spent sometime with my older sisters and my mom. I just found out my sister Eden is pregnant. So I am going to be very busy in the next few months." Lilith couldn't help but enjoy the time she spent with Praneil. When she was with him she could be herself and not have to worry about trying to impress anyone.
 
Praneil smiled "I ddnt heat what?" he asked teasing her. when she pocked him, he tickled her slightly. there was now no douby that he was flirtingwith her. he liked her quite lot, and had missed he when she had been away. "I was practicing for my cousens wedding, i am meant to play, and i havent practiced in ages, and it would embarrass everyone if i had forgotten." he said. once Lilith had finished with her shin guards he placed his arm back around her. "that sounds like a good brea. congratulations to eden,I hope that she is well" he said holding her tighter. he hoped that having a pregnant sister wouldn't put too much strain on her, and stress her out too much, as he wanted her to be safe, and stay as cheerful as she was.
 
Lilith remembered why she enjoyed being around Praneil now. He was such an awesome person. That and Lilith was flirting with him and to her delight Praneil was flirting back. "That's cool I am sure that you will do just fine. I don't know how its supposed to sound but it sounds perfect to me." Lilith said as she settled against Praneil when he placed his arm around Lilith once more. "Eden is doing well she has her twin and our mom to make sure she is taken care of." Lilith was kind of jealous that she couldn't be there to take care of her sister but than again she did have school and Quidditch to worry about. She needed to focus on her studies and once she was out of school a career. She wanted to lead a different life than the one her sister had chosen and if she was going to do that than she needed to work her butt off for the rest of this year and last.
 
Praneil smiled Lilith seemed to be enjoying her self. "I hope that you are right. I don't want to be out of time" he said feeling her close beside him, it felt so comfortable. "you mean hoshi? at least she has someone who isnt in school to look after her." he said. remembering the name from the sister she mentioned in the hidden lounge. he leaned closer and brushed some loose hair away from her face. he then tilted her face up and kissed her lightly on the forehead. he pulled away pretty quick as where he came from it wasn't right but he didn't care about india when he was here, his farther was brought up in england anyway. very vaguely one word crossed her mind. tara, but he hardly registered it. Instead he held Lilith close as if he was protecting her.

I guess that you can tell that it is a girl playing him. o_O
 
"I always seem to be right about things like this. That and I have faith in you." Lilith couldn't help but say. Hearing Praneil ask about Hoshi, Lilith shook her head. "No not Hoshi. Eden's twin Elvera. They are super close its really weird having your two older sisters be not only twins but Seer's." Lilith felt Praneil brush away some of her hair. What came next surprised her. Did he really just kiss her on the forehead? Lilith wasn't sure how to take that. She liked him a lot and not it seemed that he liked her as well. Lilith could almost hear her sister telling her to just do what came natural to her. Placing her hand on Praneil's cheek. Lilith lifted her head and kissed Praneil lightly on the lips.
 
"thank you I will trust your judgement" he said laughing. when she said that Elvera was Eden's Twin sister. "that seems like a lot of sisters, and seers must be particularly annoying." he said, not calling her sisters annoying just the fact that they are seers, there goes any privacy.
Praneil was a little surprised with himself for what he had done. he usually flirted with girls but it was never anything serious, however Lilith was different for him. he was even more surprised when she kissed him back. He gently kissed her back. before pulling away slowly "Sorry if that was wrong, but you were just too cute" he said smiling, he hoped that he wasn't freaking her out. but he liked her, a lot.
 
Lilith laughed. "They try to respect my privacy but sometimes it doesn't happen like that." Lilith was still unsure as to why she had kissed Praneil but it felt right. She didn't regret doing it she just hoped. That she hadn't upset Praneil, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself if she had messed up her friendship with someone as wonderful as Praneil. As soon as he said he was sorry. Lilith shook her head. "No it wasn't wrong, truthfully I have been kind of hoping you would." Lilith said softly. She didn't know what it meant or where they would go from there. But at least it was out in the open that they liked one another.
 
Praneil laughed along with Lilith "thats nice if them, but i have heard that it is quite hard to control sometimes" he said, he had never met an actual seer, but he had hear about them, one of his aunts were quite into divination. "Im glad that i wasn't the only one thinking about it." He was glad that Lilith seemed to like him back. "I guess now would be a little to late to ask if you have a boyfriend, but better late than never" he said still flirting, but wanting to make sure he wasn't making this any more complicated than it already was. he knew that he still had Tara back in india, studying art in some special school in the city, but he didn't see himself here as the same boy who spent his summer in india, and he certainly didn't see himself as being engaged to the girl who was his best friends sister.
 
Lilith let out a giggle. "Eden has it down to an art form with how well she has it under control. Elvera is trying her best. Eden and mum are doing the best they can to teach her." Lilith couldn't help but continue to look at Praneil. He was handsome and he had been so nice to Lilit even when he had kissed her it was a gentle kiss. "Yea normally I'm not so foreword but when I am around you I don't feel so shy." Lilith said playing with a loose curl that had come free from her bun. "No, no boyfriend. I had a boyfriend for the first part of my first year but we broke up and ever since than I don't know I just haven't been able to find anyone else." Lilith said softly, Praneil was different and special altogether. She wanted to see where this could lead but she didn't want to rush anything.
 
Praneil listened to Lilith, "I dont think i would like to be a seer. it sounds hard" he said, he had never met a seer that he knew of, but he had heard about them. when she said that she was never that forward he nodded, he was usually very flirty with girls but never felt like there was any real connection, however Lilith was different. "I know what you mean. I feel different too" he said. but he didn't want to say how he felt different, as he didn't want to seem obnoxious.
Praneil was surprised and glad that she didn't have a boyfriend. "thats good, not the part that you don't have a boyfriend, but the that i wont have to keep watching my backside. as for the first i am sure i could find a way around that if you want" he said winking. he was pretty sure that she would understand what he meant.
 
Lilith couldn't agree more with Praneil. "I agree being just me is hard but what they live with man it has to suck sometimes." Lilith didn't know how to react around Praneil, she wanted to jump in his arms and hold him close but Lilith didn't want to move that fast. Nodding her head Lilith laughed at his comment. "Well I don't know about that. Eden is very over protective of me she might still beat you up just because she can." Lilith didn't know how to respond to is next comment. She wanted to date him but she just didn't know how to say it. "I think that would be nice." Lilith said resting her head on his chest.
 
Praneil was glad that he wasn't the only one who thought that "I have an aunt who was quite into divination at school but she isn't a seer, which os probably a good thing, my family is known to be quite nosy at times. he said lightheartedly. he felt Lilith lean her head against him and he put his arms around her and smiled to himself, he couldn't think of anywhere he would rather be right about now. "I will keep an eye out for Eden, and try and not get on her bad side" he said chuckling slightly. he wasn't sure what to say to her next comment. he knew he wanted to date Lilith, and he was pretty sure she wanted it to, but he wasn't sure how to say it. the inner businessman in him (curtsy of his farther) told him that he should shake hands over it and say something along the lines of it a deal, or its a date, but he knew that that wouldn't be right. "In that case Lilith Koshiba will you be my girlfriend" he said instead, reverting to a mock formal tone like he quite often did when he wasn't sure what to say. he kept his arms around her and gave her a little squeeze when he spoke.
 
Lilith nodded her head she knew all about nosey families. "Ugg tell me about it. My sister was already nosey and than as soon as they figured out she was a seer. It was like bam no privacy at all. I got so fed up with it that I left Hogwarts to come here." Lilith said it wasn't the only reason she had decided to come here, but it was the main reason. Lilith giggled at Praneil. "Good luck with that. Right now everything annoys her. I have a feeling as the months go on she is going to get even more angry. Lilith couldn't believe what she was hearing. Was Praniel really asking her to be his girlfriend? It was almost to good to be true. Lilith knew what her answer was but how was she supposed to say it? Biting her lip Lilith decided that she should stop trying to say the most perfect thing and just give him an answer. "Praneil I would love to be your girlfriend." Lilith said with a smile as she wrapped her arm around his waist.
 
Praneil smiled and nodded when Lilith said that it was no privacy, "you went to Hogwarts? My dad went there, but he wanted me to go somewhere else" he said . At the mention of Eden he frowned and lowered his eyes briefly"Maybe it is just hormones, I will keep out of her way, but i am sure i will be able to look after myself" he said comfortable with her in his arms. when she said that she would be his girlfriend he leant forward and gave her another kiss, this time a little more sure than the last time. he knew that he was digging himself into a pit of trouble, but at the moment he didn't care. He liked Lilith, and right now she was the only girl he wanted to be around.
 
Lilith nodded her head. She hated going to Hogwarts always being compared to her older and more talented sister. "Yep they sorted me into Slytherin. I hated being in the same house as my sister so the first chance I go I left." Lilith explained as she let herself get all cozy in Parneil's arms. Feeling Parneil's lips on her this time feeling more at ease this time around. Lilith gave herself over to some of her feelings. This day just couldn't get any better. As the kiss ended Lilith let out a giggle. "Oh wow." Lilith said softly, she couldn't believe that this was happening to her.

Uggg deleted my whole post I am so mad lol

It sucks when that happens

praneil was surprised that Lilith had been put into slytherin, his knowledge of the houses was only slight, so he couldnt say where he thought she should be, possibly a hufflepuff, but he wasn't going to say that name as he knew many people saw the hufflepuffs as being a weaker house. "I couldn't see you in Slytherin, so i am glad that you left." he said. he didn't know what it felt like to be in an older siblings shadow all of the time as he was an only child, but he suspected that it wasn't pleasant.
he had never kissed a girl like that before so Lilith's wow basically summed it up for him. as back in india you couldn't kiss someone properly unless you were married to them, and since he had come to the school, despite his flirting, he hadn't had a girlfriend. he couldn't think of anything else to say, so instead he just sat there enjoying a moment of bliss, sitting in the sun with Lilith in his arms.
