That time of year again (Open)

[Jason Williams]

After running into Delilah and Cole before breakfast that morning the goofing around with friends for the rest of the day, Jason did need to go run before he called it a day. He threw on his black muscle shirt and a pair of long shorts. he grabbed his wand and holster off his bedside table. Jason headed out of the common room and out the front door of the school. Jason jogged around the grounds for a good hour before. He found himself on the shore of the great lake. Jason panted heavily as he looked at the sun setting over the lake. He crossed his arms, and watched the sun set. Thoughts of what this year would bring began to ring through his head.
Tomorrow I start my last year of classes, What will this year bring, and what will happen between me and Delilah, what new things will i experience throughout this year.
These thoughts ran through Jason's head and kept watching the sunset and the soft breeze off the lake ran through his hair. Jason smiled... The thoughts captivated him so much that he didn't even notice the person walking up beside him

(Open!)

[Delilah Morine]

The small Head Girl had been standing by an opening in the castle of Hogwarts, staring out onto the grounds, where she spotted someone running. She grinned, knowing full well that the only person that could be doing that, would be Jason. She quickly left her post by the opening and walked briskly towards the lake, just in time to watch the same sunset Jason had his eyes on. As she neared, she could see the thoughtful expression on his face, and she wondered if his thoughts had matched hers. Delilah stood next to him carefully, and he seemed to ignore her. She looked out onto the sunset and grinned, "Beautiful isn't it?" She asked, keeping her eyes on the sunset, glad that she actually did run into him. It'd been a while since she had a conversation with her crush friend.

[Jason Williams]

Jason snapped back to reality. He jumped a little when Delilah spoke. He looked at her and smiled. He didn't really expect anybody to be out on the grounds. He figured everyone would be in there common rooms partying it up. Jason smiled again and turn back to the sunset. "yeah it is" he said with a smile. "On your nightly patrol miz head girl" he asked with a grin. Jason closed his eyes and and let the breeze off the lake run through his hair. He opened them again. "wheres the fifth year that was all goo goo eyes over you this morning, he seems like the guy that wouldent let you far out of his sight"

[Delilah Morine]

Delilah smiled back once he finally noticed her. Was she impatient? He really did seem surprised to see her, but she hoped along with that surprise was a certain happiness to see her as well. Or maybe he really was out of it. Delilah looked back out onto the sunset, only to look back at Jason, "You could say that..." She said, looking at him a moment too long, before looking back at the sky and sighing. She could blame a lot of things on her nightly patrol... when in reality, she was a night owl by nature.

The small girl grinned happily as the autumn breeze ruffled through her long brown curly locks, and Delilah turned back in time to catch the wind run through Jason's hair as well. He seemed almost surreal, just standing there taking it all in. Good thing he had his eyes closed... Delilah's brow furrowed at the mention of "the fifth year" though. She had nothing to say to that. What was with these two? Was it the obvious she was thinking of? She decided, after a moment's too long of a pause, that she'd go for something more neutral and move on to a different subject, "Try not to be too jealous Jas, I'm not on a leash..." She said, now having second thoughts about both Cole, and Jason.

[Jason Williams]

Jason Rolled his eyes, "I'm not jealous" Jason said giving her a look of dis believe. As for the leash comment he felt it was best to let that one go. He looked be hind him and found a large rock to sit on. He sat down on it then crossed his arms, "I'm sorry I didn't mean to sound like a jerk" Jason said crossing his arms then looking back over the lake. "Its hard to believe this is the last year were going to be looking at this lake as students" Jason said looking back at Delilah.

[Delilah Morine]

There was something about the way Jason worded things that often times made Delilah angry. She knew that that was not his intent, and often when his anger flared up she wondered what she did wrong, but she was getting used to her friend, knowing that this was just how his personality was. Once he announced that he indeed was not jealous, Delilah rolled her eyes right back, "Yeah, right." She said, crossing her arms in front of her, not daring to take her eyes off the sky.

She only glanced at him once he sat down a rock that was behind the both of them. She stayed put, but did turn around to face him, still there was a sour expression on her face. "That's ok, I know that's not want you wanted to come across as." She said, her face easing into a soft grin. Jason was always at his best when he was calm, and not acting like a crazy person.

Delilah sighed, turning side ways so she could see the sky, but also keep an eye on Jason. "Tell me about it..." She said thoughtfully, looking back at him with warm green eyes. "I don't know whether to be excited," she said, picking up a small flat rock, "or excited." Delilah threw the rock across the lake, it skipped one, two, three, fou... Oh, no, something in the lake snagged it just as it was about to skip again.

[Jason Williams]

Jason turned and looked at Delilah, "Yeah" Jason said "Right" There was no way Jason was jealous, Jason didn't even get jealous, of any one or anything let alone a fifth year. Jason watched her skip the stone across the lake. When he saw it yanked under the water he laughed. "rule 32 love" Jason said laughing "don't skip stones across the lake" He turned and looked at Delilah again "It pisses off the squid" Jason said still laughing a little.

[Delilah Morine]

Delilah turned to Jason and stuck out her tongue. Did he just call her love? Delilah turned back to the lake, he couldn't be serious could he? That wasn't really a rule of course... was it? The small girl walked up to Jason, but didn't sit next to him. She had some personal thoughts to sort through before she decided to be close to him. "So how's life?" She asked him, crossing her arms in front of her to shield herself from the chill. Delilah didn't want to cause drama, or be in the middle of it, but sometimes she had to wonder what Jason, or Cole, saw in her. Wasn't she supposed to be a nasty Slytherin? Cole was a total sweetheart, and Jason had only been getting on her nerves as of late.

[Jason Williams]

((OCC: AHH SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG. 2 DAYS OF 16 HOUR SHIFTS >.<))

Jason laughed when she stuck her tongue out at him. Jason smiled and turned his head back to the lake and watched as the sun touched the horizon. Its reddish orange glow reflected off the lake. Jason turned his head as she spoke "Life is good" Jason said calmly. "Its moments like this that are the happiest in life, where peace meets serenity" Jason smiled "enjoy it while it last my friend, because i have a feeling it wont last long" Jason said crossing his arms again. A small bird flew over the water and landed on the banks right where they were sitting.

[Delilah Morine]

((OOC: It's all good! I'm in Disney World, posts have been fickle on my part as well))

Delilah was glad to hear Jason laughing again. It was so hard as it was, trying to ge to know everyone, only because everyone seemed to know her. She wondered if she walked around without her Head Girl badge if anyone would even reckognize her as simply, Delilah. The small girl grinned and nodded, "I'm glad life is good for you Jas, but arn't peace and serenity more or less the same thing?" She asked, wondering what her friend meant when he said that things wouldn't be that way for long. Did he know something she didn't? Or was he just stating the obvious, that life changes and you can never really be sure what to expect.

"Why, is there going to be a big fight happening?" Delilah asked in a joking tone, watching the same small bird as it pecked around the edges. She wondered when the birds would be off to find warmer places, especially before the winter hit.

[Jason Williams]

(( Sorry this time it was bicep surgery, so mad collar bone just healed then the bicep tears))

Jason didn't smile, he didn't laugh. "something like that" Jason said answering her question about a 'big fight'. Jason watched the sun go down and the darkness of night spread around them. Jason smiled and turned towed the castle then looked at Delilah and smiled again. "We better get inside, I really don't feel like getting yelled at yet" Jason said grinning. Jason thought about what the year would bring again, Would the Deva make another run at the school or would they find a bigger target. Either way he would have to help Tianne with the Hogwarts end of the regiment.

[Delilah Morine]

Delilah shrugged, apparently Jason didn't want to talk about fighting with Cole... Had she hit a nerve or something? Delilah laughed, and gave him a small shove, "If you're implying that I'm going to get you in trouble, you have me all wrong." She said, now taking a seat next to him. She wasn't about to go anywhere, and if he did, that was his call. "Unless of course, you do something to get yourself in trouble." She said with a small twinkle in her eyes, happiness written over her face. The days previous talk with Cole and Connor was swell, and her evening seemed to be ending ever better. She was happy to be home.

Delilah touched the spot where her new necklace layed, it was stunning really, and continued to stay it's original color. Only Jason would know what it meant when it did change color.

[Jason Williams]

Jason turned back to Delilah "No I'm not saying that, I get into trouble mostly all on my own" Jason said laughing a little. "though I would like to wait till at least the 3rd day before i get yelled at" Jason said with a grin. Jason yawned and shook his head. He didn't realize how tired he was. Jason watched as stars began to dot the sky. He turned to Delilah again and smiled. "so head girl" Jason said with a grin. "Yell at anyone yet" Puffing out his chest to poke fun at her new authority.

[Delilah Morine]

Delilah shook her head and sighed, "Keep it up Jason, might be the first day that you get yelled at." She said with a grin. Delilah shrugged, "Well, only a third year... but I wouldn't call it yelling... I wouldn't abuse the power I've been given..." She said, grinning as she thought of everyone's plan on starting a house-wide paint ball, dung bomb, etc. fight. She decided now would be a good time to mention it to Jas, seeing as he was in Ravenclaw, and they needed an Eagle. "Did you want in on some mass pranking going on? Sophia and Connor are in on it, we're trying to plan a school wide fight, with dung bombs and such." She said with a grin, figuring it best to not mention a slight detail: Cole was also in on it, and very willing to help.
