[Forest] Risky Behavior

[clarrissa]

Sometimes Clarissa found it difficult to believe her luck. When she was conveniently sitting in the commonroom before dinner working on one of her excessive papers that the professors liked to torture them with she over heard local-hot-hot-hottie Gabe say something about being bored and wanting plans for later that night, and if anyone was interested in an adventure. An adventure, with a man who's cuteness actually surpassed her's, heck yes; she was so in.

The adventure he had in mind of course involved sneaking out later into the Forbidden Forest, and as she's yet to go there, Clarissa agreed in a heartbeat. When she was preparing for the move, her fellow Beauxbaton friends said that the forest was a local hot-spot and somewhere to go for a fun time. 'Of course, there's a double meaning to fun time. Those stupid, dirty girls. How I miss them.'

Since it was a forest, she had to find an appropriate outfit. Long dark-dyed jeans and a pale-blue sweatshirt were her choice, but she had to match them to a pair of black pumps. After all, she didn't own a pair of shoes without a heel, but at least it was a relatively low one.

Now she was waiting where he said to meet her, in the shadows behind the caretaker's house leaning against a tree with her hands folded across her chest to protect her from the cold. Leave it to her to dress for looks rather than practicality. Now she was the impatient one, not liking to have to wait on someone. What is it with boys and always being late?

Today was a strange day.

First, his mates actually denied him when he asked if they wanted to go out for a little adventure. How cruel. Second, the fifth year, Clarissa, found him later and agreed to go with him. He never really took her as the 'forbidden forest' type, but heh, people change.

So, Gabriel was on his way outside to meet the ungodly beauty that was Clarissa Lemont. He had just thrown on his black coat over his sweater, just in case the forest decided to be extra chilly tonight. His hands were shoved in his jacket pockets as he made his way across the grounds.

Funny, Clarissa was already there. Wasn't it girls that were always fasionably late? Letting a smile creep across his face, he ducked around the other side of the house and came up behind her. Gabe draped an arm across her shoulder and grinned down at her.

"Evenin', ready to go?"

Gabriel inspected what she had chosen for the occasion, and shook his head a bit. Alright, so maybe Clarissa would always be Clarissa.

Clarissa's lips down-turned into a little frown and her brows furrowed as she continued staring towards the castle trying to spot a bit of darkness that was darker than the surroundings. At least, that's what she expected him to look like when he came up but she didn't really know. After all, when she went out at night before, she usually went with the group instead of meeting them later. Hogwarts and their weird traditions and overly enforced rules, all nonsensical.

Hearing a twig snap behind her, she gasped quietly then flat out jumped when she felt an arm around her shoulders. "Oh mon Dieu!" She called out in her first language out of freight, then turned to see who it was. Gabe, sneaking up on her. She pouted at him a little. "Oh dear, you scared me." She said and smiled back at him and silently hoped he wouldn't take his arm away.

Evenin'. She had to hold in a little laugh at that. What a gentleman, or a mock one at the least. "Ready? Of course I am." Clarissa grinned back at him cheekily. "It's not like you're scared or something, right?"
