[L] Anything to stop thinking

[Helia Ollivander]

Halo stepped quickly into the library. Ever since Brian falling off his broom at the quidditch pitch, and then when she almost told him her deep dark secret at the Three broomsticks, she hadn't been bale to stop thinking baout him, 'Grr... Why is this happening to me now?' she thought to herself angrily. 'The school is in all but ruins thanks to Kim and me, Fin's the Ravenclaw hero, Jerred and Fin are both fighting over Kim, and now this...' she grabbed the first three large books she saw and crammed her nose into them, trying to think of anything except her own lilfe.

[Jerred Boneman]

"You're not the only one in this situation, Helia." Jerred said, from an unknown corner. "I saw your face when you came in here. I'm not trying to think about it either, but it's impossible to do."

[Helia Ollivander]

She looked up, "It shouldn't be impossible, and if I have to read every book in this library I'll find a cure." she said, returning to the book she was currently reading, which happened to be titled 'Stress relief for Dummies'

[Jerred Boneman]

"There is a way to make it all stop. Well, two ways actually." He said with a grin. "Do a memory erasion spell, or simply die. I'd prefer the former." He smiled jokingly.

[Helia Ollivander]

"Neither of those sounds all that appealing to me," she said still half reading through the book, "But thanks. If I ever want amnesia I'll call you." she said with a small laugh.

[Jerred Boneman]

"Well, just find something that always cheers you up." Jerred said, "I have to find it... only thing that cheers me up is being a git again, but I don't want to do it. So I have to find what I'm good at." He smiled a little.

[Helia Ollivander]

"Only thing that makes me feel better is flying... but the last imte I did that is when... Well, anyways." she thought for a moment, "What's your favorite class? Then you and I can try to find a book about it so you'll feel better. That'll get both our minds off of both our problems, at least for a little while."

[Jerred Boneman]

"My favourite class? That's easy. Defence Against the Dark Arts! I love Professor Addis's Exdamentia spell. It's... awesome, but better, you know?" Jerred said, groping for words in his mind.

[Helia Ollivander]

"That's exactly what I think about it!" she was surprised anyone else enjoyed the spell as much as her... "Do you want to know a secret?" she asked him ina whisper.

[Jerred Boneman]

"Sure." Jerred replied in just a low voice as Helia did. "What is it? Something about the spell?"

[Helia Ollivander]

She looked around quickly, "I can't tell you here, even the walls have ears... but meet me tonight on the seventh floor across from the tapestry of Barnabus the Barmy. Okay?"

[Jerred Boneman]

"Ok." Jerred agreed. "I'll meet you there then." He felt awkward.

[Helia Ollivander]

"Cool. Don't worry, I'm not going to steal your lunch money or anything like that. Think of it as... experimental research on the Exdimentia spell, eh?" she smirked and put up the books she had been reading. "I'll see you tonight." she said, and then walked out of the library.

[Jerred Boneman]

"Alright, cya later, Helia." Jerred said, smirking. "Experimental?"

[Helia Ollivander]

-The next day-
Helia returned to the library, something wiggling in her back pack. "Settle down, people will get suspicious... I suppose I could always say I was studying the Monster book of Monsters, but then people will want to inspect and when they see you instead of a book... well then I'm sunk!" she stated to the thing in her book bag. "Now, then... where are all the books of names? You're going to need one after all... seeing as how you're alive... but you need a good name... something special." she wandered aimlessly through the rows of bookshelves until she felt someone's hand on her shoulder...
