[RoR] More Songs....

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash sighed as he entered the room of requirement, looking around he smiled. It was just as he wanted it, decorated in soft blues and greys, a stool in the middle of the room, and in front of a music stand. And Ash had his notebook and guitar in his hands. Walking over to the stool, he sat down and pulled his guitar into his lap. Playing a few chords, he tuned the strings, and turned his notebook to a new song...



I'll bet two years I'll bet one year
I'll bet those years you won't be here
I guess I'll keep, I guess you'll keep
Every memory
Sadly we may never be
I'll bet my tears I'll bet your tears
I'll bet those tears over time could disappear

Wait a minute I have more to say
and I care if your listining to me
I need you more than you'll ever know
I still do, willing to let it show

I need a minute just to get to you
I feel like I might be getting through
Come over and say nothing
Silence is everything (ohh)

I know, I know
Feelings can show
If you let go-oh-oh-oh
It must be told
I've got a hold
On what we used to have

I will forgive if you forget
All the things we said
Let's accept it
I need you more than you'll ever know
I still do, willing to let it show

I need a minute just to get to you
I feel like I might be getting through
Come over and say nothing
Silence is everything

Ash was so focused on the song, he did not notice someone enter the room...

[Alex Doyle]

Alex was surprised to see the Room of Requirement door there in all its glory as it usually dissapeared until you called it. Pushing it open, his curiosity getting the better of him, he walked in and saw Ashton, he was a year younger than Alex. True he had never spoke to Ash, but he knew him from Maxi and Max was a decent friend of his, despite the fact he thought Maxi's cousin was rather hot.

Of course he didnt tell Max that.

He watched as Ashton played his guitar and sang. Smiling, he seemed to relate to the lyrics, as did Ash. Maybe they were going through similar things. Of course, Alex was getting what he wanted, and he was sure Ash wasnt. Once he'd finished, Alex clapped and smiled, "Bravo!"

Alex liked music, however he had no rythem at all. Unless it counted dancing, or making music in different ways, Alex sounded like a million strangeled cats and even worse trying to play an instrument. "In a band?" He asked leaning against the wall, he was sure Ash was but he couldnt rememeber. he had heard some people in thier house were, but Alex didnt have a clue who.

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash jumped at the sound of a voice, "Uh...thanks" he replied shyly. "Yeah, I'm in a band. Calypso." he replied with a smile. He hopped off the stool and leaned his guitar against a table. "You must be Alex Doyle. Girt's told me a little bit about you."

[Alex Doyle]

"Calypso?" He repeated with a smile, "Interesting name, who're the other band members?" Alex smiled at Ash as he leant up of the wall and put his arms behind his head. With s shrug he spoke, "Yeah thats me" He smiled at the younger boy. Of course he knows Girt, everyone does. He was actually looking for Steph, he wanted to know why she had a huge problem with Girty, but that could wait until later.

"Alexander Doyle" He smiled, and with a little bow, causing his brown hair to fall infront of his face, "Call me that though I'll play deaf, Alex, Lex or Doyle will be fine"

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash grinned. "Fay, Bray, and Kit." he answered. He laughed at Alex's next words. "I'm the same way, call me Ashton and I'll play deaf, plus there's the possibility that I might hex you!" He shrugged, "I have a feeling people call me Ashton behind my back, but luckily they're smart enough to call me Ash to my face. And very few people can get away with calling me Ashy."

[Alex Doyle]

"Oh" Doyle smiled as he looked at Ash, "I'll have to come and see you guys play sometime, should be good." Alex smiled at Ash, "Just let me know when you're doing a concert or something." Alex however, knew the consequence for calling someone a name they didnt like, the only time anyone ever called him Alexander was when they were annoyed at him, usually it was Steph or Girty that would say that.

"Well," He sighed, "I know how it feels to be called a name you dont like to your face. Steph does it all the time to me, but I wont hex her, I dont go that far"

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash grinned. "We don't actually know if the band is actually gonna take off, it was mainly just for fun. We might have a few concerts." he gave a small laugh, "I wouldn't actually hex someone, I'd just make them think I was going to!"

[Alex Doyle]

"Well if you want it to, and work hard enough at it" Alex smiled, "It will do." He shrugged and sat down on the floor looking at the other ravenclaw, "Nothings to big you know, If you have something you want, work hard enough at it and it will be yours"

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash nodded in agreement. "True."

((short and crappy. Blegh. but i gotta go, talk later love!))

[Alex Doyle]

Well this conversation had clearly died. Alex looked around the room as though looking for some form of inspiration. He put his hands in his pockets and stood up. Puffing out his cheeks, he grinned while rocking backwards and forwards on his feet in a crazy man kind of way.

"Nice weather we are haveing. Seems a waste to be inside."

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash chuckled, "I prefer to be inside. Unless I'm out flying." He yawned. "I have got to more sleep." he mumbled, more to himself than to Alex.
