Fresh air

[Briar Rowan-Cullen]

briar made her way to the top of the north tower she wanted some fresh air and she didnt trust herself to go into the grounds she had afeeling today that if she went for a run she would go into the forrest and she fifnt want to be caught by professor weasly Kingsley again.
Once she reached the top she breathed in the fresh air blowing in off the sea. she had her broom in her hand as she found the top of the towers a good place to start a flight. and there was absolutely no way she would go straying into the forest when she wasn't meant to. however before she set off she stood near the battlements and leaning into them letting them take her weight. the breese was blowing strong, she felt the wind blowing through her hair she felt the dreads whipping behind her. she still wasn't used to them. but she liked them they were easy to look after, there was no need to wash, brush them, and they didn't got into her face like loose hair did which was good when she was flying although they did tend to whip around a bit but that was nothing she couldn't handle.

Kate walked up towards the tower,a place she didn't go often. The second term at school was one of best so far.She had caught up on everything school wise and things were good with friends.Things were looking up and for that Kate was glad.She had come up to the tower for some peace and quiet.As she neared the top it got colder so Kate wrapped her jacket tighter around her.When she reached the top,Kate looked out at the view.She could smell the sea and it reminded her of a place she liked to go when she was younger.Its not until she looked to her left that she saw someone else.She didn't recognize her but she looked like she was about to go flying.Kate couldn't help but wonder what it felt like to fly from her but she quickly dismissed the thought. She wasn't sure if she should say anything as the girl looked like she was going to do something but Kate decided she would talk anyway "Hello"She said smiling

Briar was in a world of her own. after the quidditch match the previous week she had realised that she couldn't leave this place which was her home now, at least for the next two and a half years. however she would like little more freedom, maybe to explore the mountains and coast near the castle. it wasn't until she heard a voice that she realised that someone else was on the top of the tower with her. she turned around and realised that it was a hufflepuff third year, she was glad it was not a snake as she wasn't particularly popular with them t the moment, and an encounter up here may have not been for the good health of either person. "Hello, are you going okay there? I'm Briar she said, she was always willing to help the younger students at the school, sometimes to the extent that she got herself into trouble for it, but that didn't matter to her. that was why she was in the house she was in, she would do almost anything for a friend, and it didn't take much for someone to become a friend.

Kate smiled at the older girl.Kate guessed she was in Gryffindor though she wasn't sure what year. "I'm grand,oh and my names Kate"She said smiling.She curiously looked over the edge of the tower and her face lost all of its colour.She stepped back luckely and breathed deeply.She didn't know why her fear of heights was getting so bad.It had never been to bad though it had always been there.It frustrated her because she didn't like having weaknesses Nobody knew all her fears.Not even her parents.they knew some,like her fear of heights as recently she had nearly had a panic attack thinking about the plane journey over to New Zeland. Nobody knew about her fear of slitting wrists.It was an unusual fear and she guessed it was from all the magazines having stories about girls who slit their wrists.Kate sook her head trying to rid her self of the horrible images.Remembering there was someone with her Kate put a smile back on her face "So where were you planning on going?"She asked her face regaining color.

Briar nodded as the girl introduced herself, she seemed nice, and was probably a hufflepuff. she pulled her hair over her shoulder still not used to its new texture or weight. "nice to meet you kate." she said as she watched at the girl made her way over to the edge. and quickly step back. Briar guessed that she had some fear of heights. Briar was glad that she hadn't the same fear, hight exited her. and she was known to occasionally jump off the cliffs and into the lake, and many of her flights were started by her jumping off this tower. "Are you okay, maybe we should head back inside" she said, she didn't want the girl to feel uncomfortable, and she liked meeting the younger students. her flight could wait for a while, it wasn't a necessity anyway. "I was considering going for a flight, and the north tower is nearer to where i was than the lawn, how about you what are you doing up here this blustery day?" she asked taking a few steps to the door back inside, her broom still in her hand.
