Happy New year....or not

[Jason Williams]

December 31st 2008
9:00pm
Jason laid on the sofa in th common room, he felt like hell he was in the 2nd week of having Dragon Pox. Jason thought about the fun everyone else was having because of New Years, But Jason was in the common room, he didn't feel like doing anything for once,all he wanted to to is lay there and fight of the pox. Jason Coughed slightly. He had a head ache and was running a slight fervor.
He looked over to the fire, "why the hell did i have to get this blasted thing." he said to himself turning his head back slightly.

9:30pm
Jason Finlay fell asleep, it was the first sleep he had gotten in days. As he drifted further into sleep he began to dream about Being back home, Before he was woken by someone entering the room...

(Open)

[Drew Thornton]

"HAPPY NEW YEAR!" Drew cried out, jumping down the last few steps from the boys dorm and raising his hands high above his head upon landing. Of course, it was still a few hours early, but he didn't mind. He planned on celebrating the turn of the year a number of times through out the night.

He was somewhat dressed for the occasion at hand, wearing slacks, a clean white shirt, and a jacket. He had his tie in his pocket and tennis shoes on his feet, but still, he thought he looked pretty decent. He was due to meet Felicity in a few hours, but thought he'd check out some of the other celebrations around the castle until then. Perhaps they'd go back to some of the better parties once he picked her up. He wasn't sure.

But at the moment, except for his yell, the common room seemed dead. Drew hopped over to the wireless and cranked it up, totally unaware of the other boy on the sofa.

[Tianne Webster-Barrett]

Tianne wasn't really sure how she was going to go about the night, the famous New Years. She didn't have any plans, so she planned on having a quiet night, but really, nothing was set in stone. She hadn't done anything the entire day, so she wasn't exactly tired, in fact, Tianne was quite the opposite. The young brunette had so much energy at the present time, she just didn't know what to do with herself.

Even though it was cold, and dark outside, Tianne was actually considering going running. That way, when New Years did come, she'd probably be sleeping like a log, not actually celebrating it. It wasn't anything that she had against the holiday, it was just that she didn't really have anyone to celebrate with, and she was lonely. Dressed in a pair of jeans, converses, and a grey and green flannie, Tianne was happy to lie in bed reading for a bit.

Just as she finished her chapter, Tianne heard the call of an Eagle. Metaphorically of course, but Tianne knew who it was that had called out. It was Drew Thornton, the lovable and loud Head-Boy. Dog earing her page, Tianne pushed her blankets off her, and ran down the stairs to the tune of the music that was playing. With a grin from ear to ear, Tianne half expected the room to be full, but there was only Drew and a guy that she didn't know. Wait, was he sleeping? Tianne giggled at the boy, who was obviously celebrating. "Happy new year, eh?" She smiled, with a yawn.

[Jason Williams]

Jason Bout Jumped through the roof when Drew Yelled. He fell on the floor and turned to him. "DREW YOU MORON YOU SCARED THE S#$% Outa me" Jason said his face turning a shade of red.

"What are you doing here arnt you sopposed to be at some new years party?" Jason asked picking him self up off the floor.

He turned and saw Tianne "Let me guess Drews bellow woke you up to" he asked with a grin.
He wasent mad at Drew, Infact he was half expecting him to do somthing along the lines of waking the whole dorm up.

"You Know you could of been a bit more suttle bro" he said sitting back on the sofa

[Drew Thornton]

Drew grinned at the young prefect and did a quick happy dance there in the middle of the Common Room. It was New Years and he was prepared to party. He could tell he had woken Tianne up, but in his opinion, it wasn't a night to go to bed early. She didn't seem to mind too much.

Jason, on the other hand wasn't please at all at being woken up. Drew would have appologized under normal circumstances, but didn't appreciate the name calling, the cussing, nor the snotty attitude. Who the hell falls asleep in the common room on New Years and expects not to be disturbed? Heck, who fell asleep in the common room period and expected not to get rudely awakened.

"And you could have gone upstairs to take a nap," the older boy answered, putting a little more gusto into his dance moves. He almost made a comment about only losers sleeping on New Years, but he didn't want to start anything and he really didn't want to insult Tianne.

[Jason Williams]

Jason shook his head "I'm sorry bro I'm not feeling well" He said leaning back on the sofa. "I get a little edgy when I'm not feeling well"

Jason put his hand on his head "I would be partying with you, But my head is killing me" Jason said looking at Drew.

Jason had not been feeling well for a while now, the headaches were especially bad. Jason leadned forward again and looked at the floor. He didn't mean to insult Drew, Jason just diden feel good.

"Really, bro I'm sorry."

[Tianne Webster-Barrett]

Smiling at the Head Boy, as he danced his little dance, Tianne laughed. He always seemed to be lively when know one else was, happy when the house was full of exhaust. Tianne hadn't been sleeping, no, but she may as well have been. Her reading was going no where, it was in one eye and out the other, but of course, the metaphor doesn't exactly work in this case. She wasn't in the mood for reading, and boy was she gald that something had happened. Still grinning as she found a seat, Tianne leaned forward. "Subtlety is art." She muttered under her breath.

Taking a back seat as the boy's sorted out the kafuffle, Tianne was deciding not to say anything. She didn't want to seem like she was being mean, she didn't want to say something that would later prove to controversial. Tapping her hand on her knee, Tianne smiled sympathetically. "Hope you get better than, it's gonna be a long night."

[Drew Thornton]

Drew shrugged, still perturbed by the other boy's outburst, but really not mad. The older boy still wasn't sure why the guy had decided to nap in the common room if he wasn't feeling well. If Hiro had come across Jason first, the sixth year would have been doused with something sticky or worse. The blind prefect was notorious for messing with sleeping housemates and Drew had gotten caught with his eyes down more than once.

"So you guys don't have any major plans or anything for tonight?" he asked a little surprised. Out of respect for Jason's headache (though Drew still thought the guy should take a nap upstairs), he flicked his wand towards the wireless and lowered the volume before taking a seat in his favorite chair and propping his feet up on the coffee table.

[Jason Williams]

Jason Leaned back. His head was still throbbing, But it was nice to have is friends around Even know he wasn't feeling well. Jason wasn't happy with the fact that he was sick on such a great party night but there was nothing he could do about it. He pulled out his wand and spun it a little bit and a mug of hot green tea appeared. He holstered his wand and took a sip of his tea.

"Hope you get better than, it's gonna be a long night."

Jason smiled, "thanks Tianne" he said Taking another sip of his tea " I just hope I don't get worse"

Jason Watched Drew Plop into the chair

"So you guys don't have any major plans or anything for tonight?"

Jason shook his head "I Can't co anywhere feeling like this" Jason said looking down at his tea. He took a sip of the tea and put it back on the table. "what about you Drew, your not gona go and crash any parties, i figured you would at least be hanging with your girl"

[Drew Thornton]

"I'm supposed to meet her in a while," Drew answered, kicking his shoes off for the time being. There was a good chance he'd go back upstairs and put on his good shoes, and possibly take another shower, but since there was time before he was expected to pick up Felicity, he figured he might as well be comfortable.

"But no one said anything about going out," he concluded. "It's New Year's. You should be enjoying it even if it's staying in, y'know?"

[Tianne Webster-Barrett]

Leaning back whilst the boys talked, Tianne wished that she had planned something for the usually quite festive holiday. She loved counting down, she loved celebrating, she loved everything about New Years Eve, and Day for that matter. Regretting not doing anything was one thing, but it was starting to make her quite sad thinking about it. Matty would have been up for something, she was sure of that, and there were many other friends that would have joined in. Tianne could have had a party, she could have done anything she wanted.

Shaking her head as she tuned into the conversation again, Drew was talking about Felicity, or that was what Tianne thought. Her mind was still racing over the regretful subject, but Tianne was elsewhere. She was tired, and all the thoughts weren't making any sense. "How long is it til?" She said, not even knowing if they'd know what she was talking about.

[Jason Williams]

Jason tuned to Drew "I can't go anywhere like this" he said holding his head "If I didn't have this god awful headache, id be out partying"
Jason picked his tea back up, of course he'd rather it be a butter beer, but he figured that wouldn't be a good idea considering how he felt. He took a sip of his tea and smiled.

Jason looked over at Tianne "How long till what" he asked her. He took another sip of his tea, I gota get rid of the headache, he thought to himself.

[Drew Thornton]

"Maybe you should go upstairs and rest," Drew told the younger boy, getting kind of concerned about him. He didn't think it warented going to the nurse, but it was definitely something that needed to be taken care of.

"I just said no one had to go anywhere," Drew said, smiling crookedly at Tianne. "It's not even ten. If you wanted to have a party here, I'll even let you guys have my stash," he offered. "We can pre-party before I have to go and then you guys can go wild once I leave."

[Jason Williams]

Jason Smiled. he picked up his tea and took a sip, he shook his head. "No all i need is a aspirin to get rid of this head ache" He said getting up. Jason walked up stairs to the boys dorm and grabbed 2 aspirin from a bottle in his beside table drawer. he poped them and swallowed. He walked back down stairs and sat back in his place. He picked up his tea and took another sip. "so" he said with a mischievous grin "any fire works involved in your plans for tonight" she said looking at Drew. "its not a happy new year till something go's boom."

[Drew Thornton]

Drew smirked, but didn't immediately answer. He was definitely expecting a few fireworks, but nothing actually exploding. Of course, it didn't sound like Jason was talking about the fireworks Drew was thinking of.

"Dude. I'm going to be with my girl. Like I'm going to go off and mess around instead of be with her?" Drew countered with another smirk. Sounded a bit like something that stupid second year tried to pull on Lianna a couple of years back.
