Sams Birthday

posting as:

Jenna giggled quietly when Sam squashed cake in Taylor's face then as she did it back to him, she moved backwards a little, just because she didn't want to get Owen's sweater all dirty, it was all she had that comforted her at this moment. She hugged her chest quietly as she laughed at the little food fight they were having, she had a feeling Hoshi would get in on it though.
 
Sam scrunched his face as the Taylor squashed cake on him. He then smiled as if he was victorious. "MmMm....just how I like it." he began to like the side of his mouth. He joined Toni and Jenn in laughing and grabbed a hankerchief. He wiped off the cake- with great difficulty- he then threw the cake filled hankerchief at Knight, "Surprise buddy!" he joked, his stomach hurt from both laughing and also eating so much cake
 
Taylor was in a fit of laughter and reached to grab a napkin of her own. She got all the cake off her cheeks and then eventually the rest of her face. She was still smiling though. Sam looked as though he was having a good time too. Taylor realised it would be her birthday soon too and wasnt sure what she might have planned. Probably do something when they went home for christmas holidays, it all depended how far away her friends were though.
 
Hoshi thought about making Toni scream but then thought better of it. She didn't want to ruin the atmopher of the party now that it had picked up. Hoshi took a large cake and started to eat it. She watched Knight for what he was going to do with the cake filled napkin. "Yo what is everyone going to do over the holiday. Someone please take me, I don't want to hear Haruhi yell at me for three weeks." She said rolling her eyes. She knew that the Quidditch game was going to be one thing but she wondered if there would be invites to other people's houses.
 
Sam managed to stop laughing to say to Hoshi, "Sorry Hosh...I'm staying here for the holidays." he shrugged. "Though I would gladly take you if I was going home." he added quickly. Which was true. Hoshi would get on well with his uncle. He was glad it wasn't his parents who lived in New Zealand. That would be a problem.
 
Jenna looked over at Hoshi and said honestly, "I would.. but I think I'm staying.. and well I really don't think you'd want to be there now." She had a feeling that Hoshi would get along well with Luca, and her parents wouldn't really say or do anything just laugh at the company Jenna had gotten at Hogwarts. As she said this she looked up into the sky to see her parents owl fly towards her, she sighed gently as a heavy letter dropped onto her lap. She looked over at Sam and shot him an apologetic smile, "It's Mum." She hoped that she wouldn't break into tears at Sam's birthday party but she had to read it now, she knew it was about her brother.
Dear Jenni,

I have great news! Owen is going to live! He had some major reconstructive surgery and even though he is a little drugged up now he is going to be just fine, it turns out that it wasn't cancer, it was a large tumor. He misses you terribly, are you sure you don't want to come home over holidays? Luca will be there, and so will your Aunt and Uncle.

How is school going? I hope my last letter didn't take you away from your studies, school is very important, and we expect you to do your best. I know you are trying, I did hear about your detention though, I was not pleased about it, and you were with a boy? Who is this boy? Was it the little brown haired boy you brought over a few weekends ago? You should have told me Jennifer.

Write me back when you can.

Love,
Mum, Dad and your healing brother, Owen.
Jenna's eyes widened excitedly when she read that Owen was going to be fine. She looked over at Hoshi and hugged her joyfully knowing that she may have looked like a fool with her change of mood from all of this but it really made the difference. She looked over at Sam as she pulled away from Hoshi and smiled warmly at him, her eyes showed tears of joy forming in her eyes then she murmured delicately, "Owen is going to live."
 
Sam watched as an owl - which he recognised from before- had a letter in his hand and was flying over to them. Jenn. Sam thought painfully. Once the letter was dropped Sam gave Jenn a 'its going to be okay' look. He really had no other idea what to do.

He watched intensly as Jenn read the letter. His stomach felt sick, he couldn't imagine what hers must feel like. Was he dead? Getting worse? Sam just waited till she spoke. But her eyes widened and Sam began to see that glow that used to be about her. It was back. She was back.

As she annouced Owen was going to live. Sams eyes widened. No one expected that. "Oh Jenn. That is fantastic!" He hugged her. He couldn't have felt more happy for her. Once he pulled away he beamed to her. "A miracle..." he chuckled.
 
Jenna laughed joyfully as she hugged Sam back she stole a kiss on his cheek. She hesitantly pulled away from him and she wiped her eyes as she laughed, "I'm in a much better mood now." She giggled into her hand and her blue eyes danced joyfully. She was so happy she could even be nice to Toni. She sighed silently and beamed at Sam then looked over at Scorpius and flashed him a friendly smile.
 
Taylor looked over at Hoshi, "Your welcome to come stay at mine. I was going to have a few people over anyway." She shrugged, it seemed like everyone was staying at Hogwarts for the holidays. Taylor wanted to see her parents so badly, she didnt think she could survive if she stayed here without seeing them any longer.

Taylor watched the confusing scene of Jenn recieving an owl, but it looked like good news and Jenna seemed alot happier. Taylor smiled at her, not knowing who Owen was, but knowing it must have been a significant person in her life to make her so upset. It was big news, but Taylor didnt know what to say, instead smiling at Jenn to show that she cared.
 
Toni had stopped laughing completely and just kept a smile on her face. The mood was lightened up a bit which was nice. Though when Hoshi talked about break, Toni wasn't sure what she was doing anymore. At first Toni wanted to stay at Hogwarts with Sam and Beau but now she was wondering if she wanted to go home.

Maybe she would stay at the second house in which Skye, Madison, Bailey, and her mother were staying in. Though the thought of staying a whole break with the triplets and her mother, Toni didn't know if she could stand that. Maybe she would just stay.

Yet as the owl came for Jenna, Toni had no clue what was going on. Though really she didn't care. Jenna seemed happy about someone named Owen and Sam seemed happy for her. Tempted to roll her eyes, Toni held the temption back. She didn't want to start anything.

"Well then" She said quietly as not knowing what else to say.
 
Taylor looked over at Toni when she said something, she must feel so out of place. She hadnt spoken much so Taylor picked up something that was on subject and asked Toni. "Where are you going for Christmas Toni?" She asked, genuine curiosity managing to sneak its way in. Taylor looked at the rest of the group, wondering how things got so bad between one person simply because of a relationship. Taylor still didnt know the whole story, but decided she didnt want to.
 
Toni was glad that Taylor had spoken up. Hopefully Toni wasn't the only one that had no clue what was going with with Jenna. The only difference that Taylor probably cared what was going on with Jenna where Toni could care less.

"I'm not sure" She said shrugging. "I was going to stay at our second home closer to the school but then my sisters and mother are staying there. I'll probably just stay here. A few people are staying" Toni said keeping names out of the conversation. That was all she needed was to throw Beau's name in this conversation with these people. Taylor would probably be the only one that wouldn't kill her.
 
Hoshi hugged Jenna back when she did and smiled wide. "That's so great!" She yelled happely. She new how realived Jenna must be. Hoshi knew that if her brother where to come down with something like this Hoshi would be ruined for monthes. She looked around and Taylor and Toni. She would tell Taylor about this but not Toni. She would never care about something like this. She had heard about what Taylor had said about her house. "Thank you Taylor-chan I owe you big time." She said with a sigh. She hated her house, her mother, the constent fights over her clothes or the music she choose to listen to. Hoshi didn't care what she said anymore. Her mother wasn't her friend anymore and it saddened her.
 
When Toni said a few people are staying he knew she mean't Beau. But he didn't really care anymore. Sam streched his arms widely, "Its going to be weird right?" he stated, "I mean..not being with our families for Christmas." Sam wasn't going to miss it, he'd probably have a much better time here. But it would be a big change.
 
[Sorry guys, I'm gonna try and catch up within this post.]

Scorpius finished singing along with the rest of the people and laughed when Prince blushed, was singing really that embarrassing? If so, he was going to make sure he made everyone sing at all of Sam's birthdays from now on. He grinned wickedly at his thoughts coupled with Taylor's actions of wiping icing on him. When Prince shoved the cream bun in her face and she returned the action he couldn't stop laughing when suddenly, Prince's icing filled napkin hit him in the face. "Thanks mate," he said cheekily as he wiped off the frosting from his face.

Suddenly an owl flew over to Jenna and once again the lifted spirits of the party seemed to dampen slightly when suddenly Jenna seemed completely happy again. He heard her say her brothers name Owen, and Scorpius stood there beside Taylor and Toni, feeling completely out of the loop. The truth was that he'd heard about her brother, but it hurt him because she hadn't told him about it and he was supposed to be one of her good friends.

He shrugged trying not to let it bother him and listened to the rest of them talk about their plans for the holidays. "Well I think I'm going back to Ireland for Christmas," he said, he missed his family so much more than he let on. "But so many of you seem to be staying, you guys make it more tempting to stay now..." he added thoughtfully with a grin on his face.
 
[No worries :cool: ]

Sam looked as Knight spoke about going home. "That sounds awesome." Sam said, it would nice to be actually looking forward to seeing your parents. That never happened to Sam but that was just how everything happened. "You should return home." Sam would if he enjoyed his parents company. "Not that we don't want you here." he added quickly with a slight grin of cheekiness. "I mean I would if I..." he trailed off. But this was not the time to be feeling down. It was his birthday and he was surronded by all of his best friends. "I'm actually quite looking forward to the Christmas theme in hogwarts. I mean..what the did for Halloween was awesome!" he enthuaised [sp?].
 
Scorpius nodded his head slowly as his smile stayed in tact. "I think I will go home, to give me a break from all of you guys," he added playfully with an eye roll as if he was tired of all his friends. He could never get tired of them, they were all crazy and fun in their own ways; he just missed the crazy times in his dad's pub around Christmas time. Scorpius had always loved being there just to hear the many stories the regulars told even though he was much to young to comprehend them. His thoughts drifted over to Luna as he wondered what she would be doing over the holidays and considered asking her to come to Ireland, but he thought that was best left when they had been together longer.

When Prince trailed off when talking about his parents Scorpius grabbed the napkin full of frosting that Prince had thrown at him earlier and threw it back at him playfully in an attempt to keep him cheerful for his party. He nodded enthusiastically remembering the Halloween decorations and said, "That'd be a sight to see," referring to the way the castle would look during Christmas. This then brought his attention to the Yule Ball so he awkwardly asked, "Err, are you guys going to the Ball coming up?"
 
Taylor smiled at Hoshi, "Its not a problem, as much as i want to see my parents, ill get bored after a few days of being home." She said truthfully. She noted that Scorpius was going home for the holidays, "You should visit me during the holidays too." She nudged him with a grin. She was probably going to celebrate her own birthday at home, it was coming up sooner than she thought.

The conversation switched to the yule ball. "Ill be going, i need to get my Mum to send over my dress." She grinned, her mum had bought a dress for herself ages ago, but didnt like it and hasnt worn it at all. Taylor had tried it on and instantly fell in love, demanding her mother send it over when the ball came along.
 
"Oh you'll miss us" Toni said her comment directed at Scorpius when he said that he needed a break away from them. At least she hoped he wasn't going to need a break from them. It was probably normal for students to go home for the holidays. Mostly if they care for their family. No wonder Toni was staying at the school.

Though when Scorpius brought up the Yule Ball Toni could have hit him. She didn't of coarse but still it was a thought. She really didn't want to know if Sam and Jenna were going to the ball together. Of coarse they were, Toni could almost tell but still hearing it would be a bit harder, even if she wouldn't admit it.

When Taylor said that her mother was sending over the dress, Toni smiled and nodded. "I still have to go buy my dress." She added though everyone knew she loved shopping so it really wasn't a big issue at all, if not enjoyable. "There is still some time though" Toni said thinking that it really wasn't like her to wait until the last minute to go on a shopping trip but it was just how things were lately.
 
Sam laughed as the cake frosting napkin was chucked back to him again. "Nice man. Nice." Sam said and flung the napkin elsewhere. He wiped his face in his sleeve. Though it was a bit of a wake up call, there was abosoultly no point in being sulky now.

When Knight brought up the ball he felt awkward almost. He was going with Jenn and was looking forward to it. Not the dancing part but being with Jenn. He shot her a smile. Though the awkward part was Toni. She'd be going with Beau. That annoyed him greatly and he didn't know why. She would obviously not be annoyed with him going with Jenn. Why should he be annoyed at her? Sam tried to knock this out of him. Toni was going with Beau, he'd have to deal with that fact and enjoy his night.

Sam nodded though, "Yeah we're going." he paused to smile at Jenn once more and then turned to Knight, "Are you going with Luna?" he asked him, not even glancing at Toni. As the topic moved on to what was going to be worn a smile grew on Sam's face. "I don't have to go shopping!" He said excitedly, "A firend of mine is giving me a lend of her cousins." Sam was extremly proud of this fact, not going shopping really made his day. To him Harri was a life saver.
 
Hoshi layed on her stomach and rested her head on her arms. "I am so not going. I might be fun to see how the hall is decorated but other than that I think it will be total drama that no one wants." She said rolling her eyes. In reality she thought the Yule Ball was a compleat waist of time for her but she wasn't saying that to them. Everyone seemed to be up for it. That and she didn't have anyone to go with. Yeah she had her admierers but not one of them would dare ask her. Not that she minded. She was swaring off boys for a while. It would do her heart some good.
 
Sam knew why Hoshi wasn't going to go. He wouldn't mention it either but when she said a total drama that no one wants. Sam had to say something, "Hoshi?! You really don't give yourself enough credit. Your like the coolest person I know." He said looking at her. He then looked to all of his other friends, "Yeah thats right you're all lame!" he teased them jokingly.
 
Jenna frowned as she saw that Scorpius seemed a little distant towards her but she shook it off and barely listened to the conversation because she was in tune with her thoughts then looked over at Hoshi when she said that she wasn't going to the ball, she put her hand on her friends' shoulder to let her know that if and when she wanted to talk about it she would be there, she understood what she was feeling. She flashed Sam a sweet smile and said, "Nah, I think that you're the uncool one, the rest of us are cooler, and you are jealous of us." Her eyes twinkled with affection as she stuck her tongue out at him, as her best friend and as her boy friend.
 
Scorpius instantly regretted asking the question that normally would've had them all talking up a storm because he was in the presence of a messed up, tangled love triangle. He knew Prince and Jenna were going together, but the thought of Toni going with that scum Beau angered him slightly. He knew he couldn't do anything because Toni was his friend, but he felt that Beau still deserved another black eye or two. He smiled at them as if nothing were wrong and nodded his head yes when Prince asked if he was taking Luna. Of course he'd be taking her. He thought it was rather weird that Luna had never met his friends and he had never met hers and that bothered him slightly but he figured he'd fix that soon.

He listened to them talk about what they were goinig to wear and groaned slightly before saying, "I'm asking my mom to send me a suit. I do not want to go shopping for something like that," he said, acting if that were embarrassing and the worst thing possible, for him to be seen buying a suit. When Hoshi said she wasn't going he "awwed" and joined in with Sam. "I'd totally take you if I didn't have a girlfriend!" he said with a grin. Scorpius rolled his eyes at Sam's comment and added, "Maybe everyone but me," and faked a smug look before laughing.
 
Hoshi thanked god for the great friends she had. Sam and Jenna knew exsactly what she was going though at the moment and that was because they found her while she was in her low points. Knight would know if he ever found her in one of her Henric induced depressions that seemed to come after talking with him. "Alright this is now about how you all would be leading boring, colorless lives without me." She said in mock arrogence. "This about me being dateless and really not looking for a date. Besides Knight-kun will be with Luna-Luna, Jenna-chan and Sam-kunn will probobly be makeing the dance floor a cuter place and Toni-chan will be there with blue Beau." She said not really taking a stab but it was something to get the attention off of her and the ball.
