Talia smiled, "Great award." She said, and took another bite. "I say, we're excellent cooks." She said, then added, "Ignore the part where I broke all the eggs..." She said, taking a sip from her glass of milk. She finished off her cake, and noticed how her hair kept on falling out of place. She let it down for a second, then tied it back up, making it a little tighter this time. She remembered the newest thing she had on now... Her silver rose necklace... A present from her brothers. She smiled at the thought of it. ( Ya, me too actually, have a good night! or day... whatever it is for you!  ) |

" I was thinking the same thing. " He said with his crooked smile. They were pretty good at this. Jake hoped they would do it again somtime. He grinned slightly, being taken away from his own thoughts when Talia said, to ignore where she broke the eggs. " Eh, no harm, no foul. " He said with a light laugh. Jake took a few more bites of the cake and for the most part it was gone. A house elf came by and took their plates away from them. He smiled and drank from his glass. Jake turned back to Talia and noticed she had tired her hair back up. He smiled slightly and noticed the necklace as well. " That's a nice necklace. " He commented to her. He kind of wondered if she had gotten it from a boyfriend or something.

Talia grinned, glad he didn't seem to mind that she happened to be a huge clutz, but she didn't really hurt anyone in the process... She finished off her milk, and handed it to the elves that were collecting the plates, and they took her glass aswell. She looked to Jake, "Thanks, I really love it..." She said, noticing how he looked at it... funny. "It's from my brothers." She added, now holding onto the rose. It bore her initials on it, and when opened, played a beautiful memory.

(( funny...? lol ))
Jake took one last drink of his milk, even though it was still a quarter of the way full he was finished with it and the house elf took it away from him. He turned in his seat now, his body facing Talia as well. He preferred to be facing someone whilst talking to them. Jake nodded slightly, looking a little relieve that it was from her brothers and not... someone else. " Was it a birthday gift of some sort? " He asked her curiously. It was rare that he recieved something out of the blue from either his mom or his silbings, either.

( yes... hilarious... lol, I didn't know how else to put it )
Talia let it go now, and shook her head no. "Nah, they sent it to me yesterday, just because." She said, her right elbow on the table now, her head resting in her hand, looking at Jake. She didn't want to say she liked his necklace, he might think she was weird. She grinned, and looked down at the table. She was about to be on the verge of staring... She looked back at him now, and smiled, "We have to do this again sometime I think." She said. She meant it, she was finally having a good time with someone, and that seemed to be rare.

" That was nice of them, " Jake said with slight smile. When Talia turned her head on her hand and looked at him, he also took this time to notice things about her, too. Like the dark brown color of her eyes, and her freckles. He thought they were cute, but didn't say so. Jake grinned, too when she dropped her eyes to the table. He actually didn't mind her looking at him. "We have to do this again sometime I think. " When Jake heard the he nodded, and said, " I'm thinking that you're right. " With a laugh her set his hand on the table, palm down, feeling its coolness.

"Ya, it was nice... very unlike them..." She said, remembering what the letter said about the ball, and to make sure she found a nice guy... Or else... She smiled at the thought, knowing her brothers were idiots, and stupid sometimes, but they knew how to have fun, and her being their little sister, they wanted to protect her.
"I think so too... All I need is a time and day." She said, noticing how he put his hand down on the table. She wanted to just put her hand on his, but decided not to. She wasn't sure what he'd think of that... She set her right hand down now too, moving her head off her hand.

Jake laughed, he knew how older brothers could be... His eldest brother, Charlie, was actually rather nice to him. But Jimmy was, however, a completely different story from that of Charlie. He used to pick on Jake endlessly until he turned eighteen and moved out of the house. He grinned at what she said next, then teased, " Whenever. " Jake noticed as she set her hand down next to his on the table, he moved his hand over so a few of his fingers were overlapping hers.

Talia tensed her hand for a second, but relaxed and smiled, "How about tomorrow some time... or whenever." She said, teasing him right back. She looked into his eyes now, noticing he had a crooked grin. She held her smile, thinking it looked really good on him. She wanted to spend more time with him, and didn't care if they baked again.
Talia saw some movement from the corner of her eye as a few of the elves were watching them. She looked down and pulled her hand back to her, as the elves giggled. Her face flushed and she continued to look down. She didn't know what it was, but this was the only time she'd ever really felt embarassed.

Jake laughed, " Whenever soon sounds good te me. " He said with his slight grin, catching Talia's gaze. He, too wanted to spend more time with Talia, he wanted to know more about her. He had to admit to himself that he was curious. Jake turned to look at the elves, they seemed to be why Talia he moved her hand, and said, " Ah, the lot of you are just jealous. " With a joking tone. The house elves continued to giggle, but went their way back to the kitchen. He laughed, then said, " I think they like you... " He was joking of course, but offered the embarassed Talia a smile.

Talia smiled down at her lap, liking his sense of humor. She looked back up, her face still a little pink, but not that bad. She smiled at him now instead, "Or they could like you." She said, obviously kidding too, but neither of them could know if the group of elevs was male or female. She eyed him now, wondering what he meant earlier about the group of elves being jealous... Jealous of what? She wasn't really anything to look at, not like she wanted elves looking at her... "Whenever it is then." She said, smirking, figuring he'd either tell her eventually, or they'd just run into each other.

" Nah, I'm not cute. " Jake said with a laugh, he couldn't believe he had just said the word, ' cute '. Shaking his head slightly he grinned as she looked up at him now. He held his hand palm up in front of him, sort of offering it to Talia. She could either take it or not, it wouldn't make much of a difference, but still. Jake nodded, " How about whenever be tomorrow, maybe for breakfast? " He suggested to her. He didn't think they had classes, so that would be good. Jake preferred the weekends when they got time off to the lessons.
(( figured I should just throw in the breakfast thing... lol ))

"Not cute? Pffft." She said, smirking still. She wasn't sure what he meant by saying he wasn't cute, but she was going to keep that to herself. Talia didn't want to leave Jake's hand hanging, and took it, wrapping her feminine fingers around his rougher hand. She liked the idea, and thought it'd be an excellent way to start off the day. "That sounds fun," she said, gripping his hand slightly, "It's a date." She finished off, finding a little more confidence in her voice, and it showed.
(( alright, sounds fine by me! ))

Jake laughed at her remark, and as she took wrapped her fingers with his he smiled. This was turning out to be a rather productive evening... ( lol ) He trailed his thumb slowly along hers subconciously, not really noticing the movement as he placed their hands on his knee. " A date. " Jake repeated, more to himself than anything. He smiled a little smugly as he said this, and looked back at Talia he grinned. " What should we do with all of these cookies? " He asked her, looking over to the plate, still half full.

Professor Solis walked in the kitchens to find the two eating cookies and... holding hands. She narrowed her eyes and put her hands on her hips. "Ah-hem," she coughed, getting their attention. She disapproved of student relationships...
"Should I take points off for you two being here?" she asked. "Hufflepuff, eh? What are your names?" she scanned their eyes and snorted. "Jake Riley and Talia Saphire, si? Mr. Riley, I would appreciate it if you tuck your shirt in, as well. Maybe I should take a point off for that too," she said hastily.
Of course, she wouldn't really take points off... unless they decided to mouth off to her. She would be amused, this was her first time scolding a student. Oh, the power.
