Harrison could not help but laugh when the girl started to assume that they were gay, it would not have been the first time that idea had been thrown into the equation and it did not help that both Blake and himself would muck around enhancing these thought. (They once went to the extend on holding hands as they walked from one destination to the other.) And today was not going to be any different, it was clear from the way Blake was talking to the girl that they were getting along and it was very rare that Blake Adams had a girl in his life that he did not have a thing for. So instinctively Harrison moved forward and took hold of his friends hands and held it tightly in his own as they stood side by side.
“What am I ever to do with you Blake, I can not let you out my sight for more then five minutes and you mange to find someone in trouble.”
It was then Harrison realised that the girl was introducing herself to him breaking the hand hold with Blake Harrison stepped forward and took hold of her hand and kissed it gently before lifting his head and offering her is own winning smile.
“Pleasure to met you Rieko. I am Harrison Greg the more modest one in the relationship.”
He moved his head slightly to signal to Blake as his dear friends spouted out about how charming he was. With a small laugh Harrison slapped Blake on the back before resting his elbow on his mates shoulder.

Rieko looked back to Blake remembering what he had said, though feeling slightly uncomfortable now stood with the two of them because she believed them both to be together. She looked from each of them, finally deciding to answer in a rather uncomfy tone, "Just dont pat me and you wont have to worry for locked dorm doors" She looked at the other boy and said, "I dont think your boyfriend would be too pleased if i bit your fingers off somehow"
"Girls are more complex than boys and yes, Stripes is my nickname off my brother Tommy, for obvious reasons" Rieko didnt know where to place her eyes, either look at Blake, or at the other, or none? Eventually she settled for looking at the armours which she had destroyed by running into then Blake had fixed. She didnt say anything about collecting fan fees, though thought simply Boys.
"I was no damsel in distress!" she looked at Blake and laughed, "I just had a run in with a rather nasty suit of armour is all" Rieko looked back at the suit of armour and felt a overwhelming desire to kick it. Afterall, that is where all this had begun, with that armour, and with Rieko not watching her pawsteps.
"Oh most charming" she said slightly sarcastically. Though giving a smile of her own. "That would have my vote anyway" laughing again she looked down at the floor and caught sight of her dusty robes, Ech, im filthy... This is lovely... Not
Rieko looked up when she heard the other boy laugh and stared at him, though not meaning to stare so blatently she looked away rather quickly and strained her neck. Lifting a hand to it and rubbing it gently, Who's not accident prone today then?
"I wasnt in trouble!" she argued, though laughing at the same time because she knew she wouldnt have known how to fix the damned thing and knew that she would probably still be sat there on the floor now if Blake hadnt helped her. Thankfully now though, her headache was gone.
She felt a little more uncomfy though, when she saw the other boy go and hold hands wit Blake. She looked up at the ceiling and began to chew her lip, thinking maybe this should be kept private and didnt want to intrude. Her eyes fell forward though, when she felt a slight tug on her own hand and realised the other lad was stood infront of her. She smiled when he kissed her hand and said, "I can see that" She looked over at Blake and stuck out her tongue, "Thats charming" she said, meaning Harrison's gentleman-ness. "Pleasure to meet you Harrison Greg"

"Oh But you are just so quaint! How could one resist patting you on the head! And they are only fingers, of little importance as I said! I'm sure you wouldn't mind would you Harri?" He began with a gleeful grin before glancing over at his friend. He Caught the usual energetic grin and was wondering how far this would go before Rieko either became scared or just generally uncomfortable. For a new acquaintance it must have seemed rather bizarre, for a sudden spanner to be thrown into the works. Most were used to their random tangents and knew to make nothing of it.
"No damsel in distress, huh? Perhaps I shall keep my services and aid for more deserving and appreciative recipients then?! Though i spose there suits of armour are very crafty they do have a tendancy to strike when you aren't looking! Running down corridors wielding axes indeed!" Blake chuckled as the image came to his mind, though hoped that she would not take an offense, he was always willing to help any manor of person. Even at his own expense.
Blake stiffled a laugh as Harri came toward him and took up his hands. "You know me love, I have an eye for danger, and it always finds its way to me somehow. Its like these girls purposely put them selves in danger just to simply converse with me! What shall we do!" Blake saw over Harri's shoulder that Rieko had suddenly grown rather uncomfortable, not that her body language gave it away too much! It would appear that Harri had noticed his gaze change person, as then he was by Rieko and as ever being the charmer and kissing here hand.
"Well I would have done the same, just in a more gentleman-like manner, of course. However my hands were kind of full at the time! I wonder whose fault that could of been!" Blake retaliated rather childishly, and returned the compliment by poking his tongue out at her. He looked toward Harri and stated whilst attempting yet failing to supress a grin, "And as for you Mr, just beause you can't find your own damsels in distress, doesn't mean you can try and steal mine!"

Harrison laughed on as the two of them chatted between each other and Blake tried to cover for the fact he had not kissed her hand, although Harrison had to agree he did have a good excuse. But then Blake mentioned about not being able to find his own damsel in distress and he had to defend himself there.
“I have plenty of damsel’s thank you very much Blake and many are in distress, well I imagine they are currently asking every portrait on the sixth floor if they have seen me, I escorted the girls to the bathroom and then made a run for it. It was hell; you know they were actually working out the days they were free for me to take all five of them on a date.”
Harrison shook his head and acted as if the mere thought of it was painful. He then turned back to Reiko and noticed that she seemed slightly uncomfortable about the whole act that himself and Blake had been putting up and he almost wanted to comfort her and tell her that they were not gay so she can keep her heart set on his dark haired friend…but then where would be the fun in that.
“Anyway have any of you seen Toby? The git ran stepped into the common room saw the girls and bolted out.”
His eyes darted from one to the other waiting for there responses but he doubted the new Gryffindor even knew who they were on about if Toby was not with Blake the chances of him seeing him were also increasingly slim.

This, Rieko was not ashamed to admit, was baffleing her head. She had no idea how one minute you could be one person and the next you could be someone else and yet you could clearly see that he was trying to maintain his stature of who he was before. Rieko lifted a hand to her head and pressed it firmly on her temple, all this was confusing her and the more she thought about it, the more it confused her. "Pat me on the head and you will be lucky to escape with your hands, let alone your fingers" she hissed through a smile. If there was one thing Rieko could not stand, it was being teased about being patted on the head. She hated it as a tiger, and more so as a human.
"I never said I wasnt appreciative of your help, Blake" she stated looking at him, "I just said I wasnt a damsel in distress, one usually has to call for help and I wasnt calling" She laughed, thinking what a site it would have been for her to have been stuck under those suits of armour yelling something like Oh wont a brave and noble knight come and rescue me. She couldnt stop a laugh escaping her as the picture of her lying there came into her mind and Blake came riding in on aa big white horse with a sword. Of course, she didnt tell him this.
Rieko stood there silent for a minute while she listenened to Blake brag about all the girls that adored him. Surely it must have slipped her cousins mind to tell her to watch out for these types of guys, he usually did. "How can you do that in a more gentleman-like manner?" she asked, slightly intruiged for the way Harrison had kissed her hand, that was as bout as Gentleman-like as Rieko could have imagined, though shrugging she added, "True, your hands were a little full"
Rieko looked at Harrison with a bit of an open mouth, "You mean those girls there?" She said pointing behind him, "The ones who dont look happy with you at all" of course there was nobody there, she just wanted to see Harrisons reaction to thinking a group of angry girls were stood behind him, "Hey hang on, if they know your gay why bother?" She asked, still not realising that they were only playing with her, Rieko could be so gullable sometimes. "Who's Toby?"

Harrison’s smile soon vanished as Rieko joked about the gaggle of girls being behind him, his eyes grew wide and his mouth formed a small ‘o’ shape. With a deep breath Harrison pulled at his robes and flicked his fringe out of his eyes and put a wide grin on his before turning on his heel. He was ready to meet the masses and charm his way out of leaving them all and if anything he had Blake to lean on…but the corridor was empty. A frown spread across his face and he turned back to Rieko finding it hard to keep the disappointed look up.
“Very good, for a moment then I was getting ready to run from…” But Harrison broke off as Rieko asked about why they would be chased if they were gay. There was no point in teasing the poor girl any longer. “Oh we are not gay just affectionate friends. And who is Toby? You mean you have not seen an annoyingly handsome Gryffindor who charms his was through life? Well he is the other one of us, we are the Gryffindor boys.”
Harrison nodded his head almost in defiance and folded his arms almost as if that finalised the answer but he tiled his head to look over a Blake putting on an astonished and surprised look but a small laugh broke through. “Is she new then as I mean not to know us and be a Gryffindor?”

"Oh come on, you know you were calling for me mentally! It was all a ploy of that I am sure? However it is only natural. You just wanted to be helped by the tall, dark and handsome lad, that is I. To come to your rescue! Do you not concur Harri?!" Blake supressed a smile as he spoke these words, and then afterward shot a grin in Harri's direction.
Biting his lip to stop himself from laughing, Blake listened to Harri's retort. "Ah, yes indeed, however my dear there is a difference. Your's are generally people whom you put in distress yourself!" Blake chuckled dryly and then continued. "Dude, I pity you. Is it not awful when they surround us completely. I mean its like they believe we actually enjoy listening to their meaningless rambleings!" Blake put on a sigh and shook his head whilst moving his hands around as if he were highly agitated by the fact.
Blake looked on in amusement as Rieko pretended that the regular gaggle of girls were stood behind Harri, making sure he remained straight faced so as not to give the game away. He watched Harri's expression change from a look of shock and worry, to his usual cool and charming look for the ladies.
"Ah Indeed we are not. We just put on the act for amusement at times. The looks we get are simply priceless!" He laughed, however not directing at Rieko. He hardly wanted to make her feel stupid. Looking at Harri once more he began with a wide grin. "Indeed, she must be new, I mean for her not to know who you, Toby and I are is practically insanity! And speaking of Toby, I haven't seen him around for a few hours actually. No doubt he's gone on the prowl for one not in the usual gaggle. I mean come on he does have a little sense!"
Blake turned his gaze to Rieko once more. "And as for you Miss, Hat's off to you. You made poor Harri here fear for his life!" And with this he gave a small smile and bowed to her.

She laughed as the image of a knight came to her again, though again, she didnt say anything. "Well then if your sure it must be true" Rieko raised an eyebrow when he described himself as tall, dark and handsome, though a smile tugged at her lips. Neither of the two were bad looking but she wouldnt go and get all silly over them like the other girls did.
"Well thats silly children for you" Rieko laughed, "Well you must entice them somehow, though personally, i cant see the huge deal with either of you two" She put on an innocent expression and began to hum a tune as she said this, not looking at either of them.
Rieko laughed when Harrison seemed to become nervous about the non-exsistant girls. Though her mouth dropped open when a brunette haired girl walked down and stood there with her arms folded, giving a yell of, "Harrison!" Rieko laughed again and looked at him, mouthing, 'Someone's in trouble!'
"Im new yes" Rieko defended herself, "Though i had heard of you and Blake off the other girls" Se put her hand on her head, "How'd it go? Oh yeah! Harrison and Blake! The two guys you absolutley have to meet, they are both so dreamy blah blah. Of course i never pay attention to those that seem to have enough of it, so you two are safe with me"
"Well he's about to get it big" she said pointing as another girl joined the other one, Rieko smiled again, as the girl yelled, "Harrison Greg! Do not ignore me! Why did you leave us?" With this the brunette girl came bounding over and latched herself onto Harrison's arm. Then her eyes met Rieko, She said, "Harri? Did you blow us out for a blonde?"
((I had to involve them!))

At first Harrison thought that Reiko was joking about there being someone else there but then an all to familiar voice floated down the corridor behind him. Harrison winced and looked at Blake almost pleading for help but it was too late she had his arm and with a small smile Harrison turned around to look at brunet. It was time for Harrison to think on his feet and it would not be the first time he would have to do so. The trick was bending the truth enough that he would not be caught out even if she had been talking to the portraits.
“Jennifer you know I would never just leave you not when we were arranging something as important as our afternoon out. I was waiting for you outside the bathrooms and I heard an almighty sound and ran to have a look.” Harrison turned himself fully around to look directly into Jennifer’s dark eyes. “The noise was created by these two knocking over that suit of armour, I was going to come back after I finished this conversation.”
He turned back to Rieko and Blake with a small smile gracing his features, he had been caught out and he could only hope that the others would not blow his cover too much. The thing now was to try and get Jennifer to disappear with the belief that he would return eventually.

Blake put on astonished expression "No big deal? Ah I apologise perhaps you still have dust in your eyes from the collision!" He then withdrew his wand and with a flick of his wrist, the dust still clinging to her robes vanished. "There! Now you can see, you can take in the true handsomeness that is Harri and I!" with this he added a dashing smile.
"Ah our reputation precedes us, however indeed they are right" With this he bowed cheekily. As Reiko continued she uttered something about them being safe with her. This made him chuckle somewhat. However putting on expression of what he hoped to be a grateful yet shocked one. "Did you hear that Harri, finally a girl who does not wish to take advantage of us! We are saved!" Blake at this stage could not help a cheeky grin spreading across his face.
The following events made Blake want to laugh ever so much. However, he could hardly laugh when it would have put his best friend in a rather sticky situation. And watched as the ever popular Jennifer skipped over and latched onto Harri's arm. Blake shot a charming smile at her, which made her blush slightly and look at the floor. However Harri was now working his magic, with one of his excuses.
"Indeed Jennifer that was the way of it, I do apologise for tearing Harri away from you, as I am sure does Rieko here." He added nodding in Riekos direction. Blake then noticed Jennifer glaring at Rieko. Well this Blake would not allow. It was time for Jennifer to go. However he could hardly upset a lady, or indeed make her annoyed at Harri as well. "Jennie, my dear. May I impose upon your kindness slightly longer. I have important matters to discuss with him, that simply cannot wait. Would you mind dearly?" He once again shot her a charming grin. Which could simply not be turned down. And to his pleasure he watched as Jennifer made up her mind to leave them, kissing both himself and Harri on the cheek, she bounded away. However not before shouting at Harri over her shoulder. "Do come and find me as soon as you are finished Harrison darling!" And she dissappeared.
With a smug expression, he then added "There, Harri that is how you do it! Good teamwork eh!" He then went over and high fived his friend. Before turning to smile at Rieko.

"Thanks Blake" Rieko smiled, "But it wasnt dust clouding my vision as i still stand by what i said" Laughing as she looked back at the statue she had decided to run into, she half flushed, "Well what do you want me to do when people insist on picking me up and stroking me!?"
"Reputation? Phooeey!" Rieko laughed, guys and their reputations were like girls and hairbrushes. Couldnt live without them and Rieko knew this perfectly well. "Well why on earth would i want to take advantage of you single formers? Not to mention your not nearly as muscly as i like, nor as tall or brown" She shrugged laughing, showing she was only joking at this statement.
Rieko knew Harrison thought she was pulling his leg again, but this time she was deadly serious and couldnt helpa smile playing on her face as she watched the event unfold infront of her. Rieko really wanted to say something to wind this other girl up, smiling broadly as she thought about it, though biting her lip to make sure she didnt, she didnt want to get Harrison in any more trouble. Though walking upto him and sliding her arm through his, looking at him with puppy eyes and saying, "Baby! You promised to take me out!" sounded like something she couldnt resist doing, however, she stayed stood where she was and watched him wiggle out of trouble. When he looked at them, Rieko just shook her head slightly.
Rieko nodded in agreement with Blake, but Rieko returned Jenni's glare with a mere smile, she wasnt about to give some idiot girl the satisfaction of winding her up. "I apologize and you shall him back and in one piece" she smiled, though as she turned away and walked off Rieko turned to Blake and said, "She minded, she wanted Harrison and she wanted him now" looking at Harrison she smiled, "And i dont think she liked you being in the company of another girl" She smiled at them both and watched as they, like children, high fived. Rieko gave a small growl, not intentional, but sometimes she couldnt help it, tiger takes over, clapping a hand to her mouth she laughed, "Again oops"
"What are you going to do now?" She asked Harrison, "You cant get out of it unless you make something up"

It suddenly felt like Harrison’s tie was too tight around his neck, he may have been keeping his cool on the outside with the cheeky smile and the playful eyes but his heart was pounding and his throat was closing up. He did not want to be caught out and lose the attention from the girls, no matter how much he complained and moaned he loved being the apple of their eye and the guy they lie in bed and dream about. But as Harrison held his breath the other guys stepped up and covered his back, first Blake saying that he would soon give Harri back and then Reiko reassured he would returned and as Jennifer walked back down the corridor Harrison let out a deep sigh and spun around returning the high five to his best mate.
“Of course they want me I mean…just look at me.”
He was doing this in a jovial tone but he was not lying he knew he was a good catch for any girl and although he had a larger then life personality and acted a lot like the self loving muggle celebrities that paraded themselves down the red carpet every other week. However he was snapped out of his small self loving dream when Rieko asked how he was going to get out of his one and Harrison already knew the replay. With a small shrug and a cheesy smile he turned to face the female Gryffindor.
“The same as I always do. I will get myself a detention and tell them I will met them later I the Three Broomsticks. It either ends in either of these three way, they get tired of waiting, I do not get let out in time or I actually go and let them buy me drinks for an hour or two whilst chatting up the barmaid.”

Blake was all astonished that Rieko could declare such a thing, especially when it came to himself and Harri. However he let it pass. It would not be worth attempting to sway her opinion whether it was truthful or not. “Ah, why they have the sudden urge to pet you I have no idea, I wouldn’t consider it to be the wisest of moves!” Blake laughed as the image of Rieko biting peoples fingers off came to his mind.
Blake smiled as he began his retort. Out of amusement for both her remark and his own he was about to utter. “Oooo, well I do apologise if we are not good enough for you! Your almighty Animaginess!” He bowed as he said this to muffle the words so that only Harri and Reiko herself could hear the last word of the sentence, remembering her uneasy look when he said it aloud before. Blake then stood upright and turned to Harri. Shaking his head slightly and looking as if he were about to utter the most awful news. “I am sorry Harri my dear. But it would appear we shall have to rethink ourselves, we are no longer catering for all the females of the school!”
Blake found it somewhat hilarious, as a small growl was emitted from Rieko’s mouth. Her face was a picture when she realised what she had done. Laughing he stated, “My dear, you should really learn to think before you speak. It tends to help form sentences you know!” He shot her a cheeky look, and prepared to move out of her path if she decided to strike him. “However on a serious note. You may find it useful to control your ‘Inner’ beast. It may be somewhat of an important indication to people if you are not careful. Not everyone may be as discrete as us.”
Blake chuckled at Harri’s statement “Why yesh indeed Harri, they would be a fool to not consider such a thing. But it is a good thing a few of them consider you, after all if they all considered me instead then we would searching for parts of their minds throughout the grounds!” a cheeky grin once more lit up his features.
Laughing once again he nodded “Yesh Harri, you have learnt well my young apprentice!” Blake found he was truly beginning to enjoy the combination of both Rieko’s and Harri’s combined company. Of course he always enjoyed his time with Harri, they had been through much together. However with Rieko’s presence he also had a pretty face to look at. It was indeed the best of both.

Rieko was having a little trouble containing herself, she had to chew on her bottom lip and look down at the floor as the other girl left, she knew it would only cause suspicion if she laughed now. Though as she got out of sight, and Harrison came out with his remark about every girl wanting him, she couldnt help it, she laughed, and laughed so hard it hurt her sides and her eyes watered. Though she bit back her own comment as she listened to him explain how he was going to get out of it, a slight surge of annoyance swept over her as she walked upto Harrison, her eyes flashed a little and she jabbed a finger to his chest, in a low and possibly dangerous voice she said,
"Girls are not toys or little playthings to use as your own amusement! One of these days you're going to come across one who isnt easily taken in by your charm and good looks and when that day happens, you're going to come down with such a bump you'll wonder what on earth happened" She took her finger off his chest and looked him in the eye, and with a slight smile, she added, "I'll love to see it" Looking at Blake she added, "And it will happen to you too, what on earth will the two of you do when you actually find someone you like, who you cant win over by your charms and.. impressive looks?"
Rieko gave Blake a, You know why people want to pet me look.Though hopefully it was a dangerous enough look to tell him not to go any further with the subject, of course, guys denseness is just one thing you cant get past. She put a hand on her head and shook her head once he finished his sentance with a bow, "Do you even have half a braincell, Blake?"
"Yes, well i see why an animalistic noise would be considered as a sentance for members of the male species, as it seems the only sentances they can create are when they say stupid things" she gave a sly smile, yeah she had growled, but it happened to the best of them. She had growled once in the middle of a silent class because she couldnt get her head around whatever it was they were doing at the time. "That's true" she said, "I cant really rely on everyone keeping their mouths shut... Its not easy to control it you know! It just takes over sometimes and its highly annoying"

Harrison would never admit but Rieko was quite intimidating, she seemed to enjoy the attention that Blake showed her but in the same way twist it in such a away as to poke fun at both him and Blake. This thought was only implied even more when she walked up to him and in a low and perilous tone shared her opinions on how they acted towards the opposite sex and that one day their charms will not work. The thing for Harrison was that he had already met someone that his charms did not work on and he loved it. It was a new challenge knowing that by simply being himself he would not have people fall for him and he might actually be able to form a friendship with a female instead of having a small fling…though once again Harrison would never admit to this, he had a reputation to keep up.
“Rieko…sweetheart, you do not seem to understand the powers of attraction that me and my mate Blake hold over the opposite sex. Women find us irresistible and at some point they will look upon us and wish they could run their hands through our hair and kiss us.”
With a small grin Harrison watched as Rieko moved her attention off him and towards Blake once more. Harrison was not one to study how people act to each other, only how girls swoon over him but for some reason he was finding the banter and looks that Blake and Rieko were giving each other fascinating. With a small chuckle Harrison reached into his pocket and pulled out his sunglasses and slipped them on. It was not particularly sunny but he liked knowing he could look at anyone or anything with out others knowing and in this case he did not want the other two Gryffindor’s knowing that he was watching them closely.
He could not help but feel she may end up eating her words.
