Need, food, now!
Collette's stomach clenched again, and she let out a low moan. She wrapped her arms around her stomach and glanced at the clock. God, why was she still awake? It was almost midnight. Yet, she was somehow ravenous. That might be on account of the fact that May and her had been fighting over dinner about some nonsense subject that she couldn't even remember anymore. And, of course, everyone knows you can't eat while you argue.
Hungry. She was rather surprised her stomach wasn't growling like those dragons she had worked with. A small smirk turned up the corner of her lip as she remembered how some acted when they were not fed. Hmm, the school was lucky that she didn't act like that. There wouldn't be any Hogwarts left. The thought was slightly amusing, but she had more pressing matters to attend to.
Now, how does one get into the kitchen again? Oh right! Tickle the pear. Not like her and May hadn't broke into the kitchen hoards of times before. It was weird how they ate so much, but didn't gain an ounce. That could be on account of all those boys they had to chase though. But, she was getting off topic now.
The smell of food hit her instantly, and she let out a sigh. Mm, delicious. A house elf ran up to her, and tugged on her hand. She glanced down, and grinned instantly. "I think I need some chocolate cake tonight loves. Mind getting some for me?" The elf nodded and raced off to the other direction. Colle shrugged lightly and took a seat. There were chairs of all sizes here, probably left overs from some classroom or another. Well, they were useful today!

((Mind if I join?))
Ash groaned as his growling stomach woke him up. He hadn't eated dinner and was now starving. Leaning over to Cris' side of the bed, Ash gave him a quick kiss, then crawled out of bed. He pulled a shirt on, and walked down to the common room. He realised he'd left his socks in his dorm, and debated going back up for them, but decided against it. He was too hungry, plus he rather liked the feel of the cold stone on his feet.
Walking down the corridors, he soon reached the kitchens, and tickled the pear. It wiggled, and giggled, and the door opened. As soon as Ash stepped foot inside the kitchens, he was surrounded by little elves. He laughed when they all asked excitedly what they could get him. "Why don't you surprise me?" he said, the elves nodded eagerly and scurried off. Walking further into the kitchens, Ash stopped short as he saw what looked to be a teacher. "Oh, sorry...I didn't know anyone was in here..."

Mm, this placed smelled so good. Different foods were passing every moment, making Colle's stomach grumble. It had only been a few minutes, but by now she was ready to eat her chair. Stupid May and her distracting debates. That girl knew exactly how to distract Colle, it was probably all part of some freaky master plan she had.
Finally, a little elf bounced over with her cake. It was a rather large piece, and there was a little bit of whipcream topped on it. Collette grinned and thanked the house elf. Whoever found chocolate was the greatest person that ever lived. She could've died happy as she placed a piece of cake into her mouth. Perfectly made, as usual. These little elves were the highlight of her day.
Someone else came through the portrait, and Colle was expecting it to be another teacher, since the hour was so late. But, to her surprise, it was a student. She rolled her eyes at his greeting and set her plate down on her lap. Collette raised an eyebrow at the boy as he stood there, looking like an idiot.
"I hope you do realize that you're breaking several rules at the moment."
As an apprentice, she had all of the same priveleges as being a teacher, except for the fact that she couldn't actually teach a lesson yet. And what does that mean dear children? You guessed it! Detention time! "I'd like your name please, and you should be expecting to spend the next few days with me in detention. Try to be more inconspicious next time, your sneaking skills are really lacking."

Ash groaned as the teacher or whoever she was, started chewing him out. "Yes, I am aware of that." he muttered a bit testily. Hey, the guy was hungry! He frowned when she asked his name and informed him that he would be serving detention with her. "Ashton. Ashton Laurent." he said in response to her question.

"Oh don't groan at me Mr. Laurent, it's your own fault for getting caught."
Collette popped another piece of her cake into her mouth and grinned at the taste. The cake practically melted in her mouth, it was quote addicting. She might grow fat off of the stuff if May didn't work her out as often as she did. Again, might I say, that girl is insane.
She finished her little piece of cake rather quickly, and she gave her plate to one of the elves. After that, Colle stood and walked over to the Laurent kid, one eyebrow raised. "You're already in trouble Mr. Laurent, why not return to your dorm before I decide to extend your sentence? You're in Ravenclaw right? Wouldn't it be the wise thing to leave then?" Merlin, students were getting slower by the day.

Ash narrowed his eyes. "Actually, I came down here because I did not get a chance to eat all day, due to trying to avoid my creepy stalker, who unfortunately is also a Ravenclaw. So, if you don't mind, I'd like to eat something first, then go back to my dorm."

This boy's attitude was rather annoying. She found herself frowning down at him as he spoke to her again. Hmph, students are so disrespectful these days. "Well, then why not take the food back with you to the dorm Mr. Laurent? Getting in a fight with me over this little thing isn't really helping your impression."
Collette brushed some of her hair out of her face, and tucked that hair behind her ear. "And as for this stalker thing, believe it or not I can actually help with that." Well, at least she could lighten up on the boy a bit. "He can be placed in a room seperate from you, and I can make sure that none of his classes intermix with your own. Any other troubles Laurent, try to find a teacher." She sat back down and twirled her wand with her fingers. "And I'll make sure to have a chat with the boy. Might I have his name?"

Ash nodded, "Alright, I can do that." He sighed when she said she could help. "It's not that easy. He follows me everywhere. His name is Adam Grier. And talking to him won't help. The point is, he's obsessed with me. Literally." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "He's trying to stop me from going through with my engagement."
