As Jay walked into the common room, the familiar sight of Green, Silver and Black came to his eyes. A most welcomed sight it was, as he flung his robe onto the couch and looked at the fire. He was going to work out, start getting back on track but he needed to get changed first. So going upstairs, he changed his school uniform for a pair of baggy black, with a green stripe down the leg, tracksuit pants, a white vest top which even without the sweat clung to him. Grabbing a small towell he slung it around his neck, his dogtags clunked together once he began to move. Stiffling a yawn, he went back downstairs.
It was always cool in the common room, considering they were underneath the lake. Looking to Morgana, a slight smile on the blonde's face. He couldnt imagine himself being Married and not having Morgana sit on his back anymore to help him work out, it was going to be strange. This was considering he ever would be married. Though it was beginning to look doubtful. Oh well, he got over that long ago.
As he placed himself on the floor in a pressup like manner, he did a couple to test his strength and he seemed to be in full working order. Turning his head sideways to Morgana he smirked, "Come on then," He smiled, "Hop on." Waiting for her to sit on his back, to feel his back arch downwards a little more with the added weight of another person, before he began to force himself to the floor, and back up again. It felt good to finally be able to do something constructive. Of course, this would look wierd to anyone who walked in, but it didnt matter to Jay. Morgana and Jay were friends, but she often stuck with him these days. Jay didnt mind, he couldnt think of anyone worthier to spend his time with. The only other people he could think of were Ricky and Erys, but they were too busy usually with eachother.

Today had been a rather uneventful day. Lessons were boring as per usual, and even with a new potions professor, Morgana soon became bored with his little treasure hunt and just went back and said she couldnt find the things he wanted. As every day passed by, it was another day closer to her 'wedding' for which she yet to find a groom, not to mention seeing less and less of Ricky and Erys. Still, she only had herself to blame, she did give Erys to Ricky for christmas afterall.
Curled up on the sofa, sitting with her legs tucked under her bum, she leant on the arm and opened the letter from home, which was more like a book than a letter. Her mother was nagging about wedding dresses and had sent along a few clippings of wedding dresses contained in the letter. Opening it up, the pictures fluttered down into her lap, and sighing, she could tell what the entire letter would be about. Unfolding the mass of paper, she began to read and didn't noticed noises around her.
After reading halfway through the first page, she was about ready to send a howler to her mother telling her to get off her back as she heard an all too familiar voice. Spinning her head around in the direction of it, she looked up to see Jay all ready for his 'weights' to be attached. Smiling, she heaved herself up off the sofa, bringing with her the letter to read to Jay as he worked out.
Sitting gracefully on his back, she crossed one leg over the other and looked at the letter once again. "Look at this; 'Dear Our Morgana,
I think it's about time we began to think about your wedding dress. Time is ticking and we need to prepare it all before you get married, obviously.'
Morgana sneered. "Mothers, honestly. Do they never shut up?"

As Morgana climbed on his back, Jay began to do his pushups, hearing the rustling of paper above his head he knew that Morgana was reading a letter. "News. From. Home?" He asked, saying each word with a new push up. Anybody would think doing push ups was hard anyway, but having someone on your back was to make it near impossible. Though Jay had been doing it for so long it was easy for him now. It never bothered him and it helped to make him stronger.
Jay stopped as a letter was put in his face, he read it and laughed. It seemed as though their parents would never shut up about wedding plans. Shaking his head, he tilted it upwards to try and look at Morgana, "Go in my pocket," He told her, "The left one and look at the letter I got this morning." Laughing, they had only been back a week and already they were being pestered by their parents.
"Darling Son, I have grand news! I have found you a new bride. I honestly believe you will like this one, I have met her parents already and have seen a picture of the girl. She is a beauty. Long brown hair and deep emerald green eyes. I shant send you the picture as I want it to be a surprise. But the meeting has been scheduled for next month.
I shall see you soon, Love Your Mother."
Jay shook his head, he couldnt believe she had found someone already, it must have taken her a whole lot of effort. Jay doubted his mother had slept and no doubt had been doing his fathers head in, but that was none of Jay's concern. "So I have yet another lined up for next month." The way Jay had spoken you could tell he wasnt best pleased, as this meant now he would have no peace from his mother. So continuing his push ups with Morgana on his back, a few sweat droplets dripped from his head and onto the floor. His blonde hair had become stuck to his head. The towel around his neck wasnt much use, if he took a hand off the floor both him and Morgana would buckle.

Morgana couldn't help but scoff at the letter so far. Only half a page and already her mother was on about wedding dresses. Lifting her head from her letter to view a younger slytherin enter the 'cave' she seemed unbothered by it and soon glanced back to the letter...correction, catalogue.
Scanning the rest of the first page quickly, she stood up and pulled a cutout dress picture from inbetween the pages. Holding it up to her neck, she stood infront of Jay. "What do you reckon? Do I look like the perfect little bride?" she said sarcastically, before unclasping her fingers from the picture and letting it flutter to the floor. She secretly hoped Jay would sweat on it and ruin the picture so it would drain the ink from it and she wouldn't have to look at it.
Looking at his pocket for a moment before he said the left one, she leant over and pulled out a letter before sitting back into his back. Pulling at the towel, she dabbed at Jaydens head whilst transfixed on the letter before laying the towel round his neck once again. With her hand full of letters, she put hers on her lap and unfolded Jays. Scanning it fast so her eyes were going side to side at high speed, her mouth opened in awe of how fast his mother worked.
"Blimey, she does work fast doesn't she?" She exclaimed with raised eyebrows. "Still, at least your not marrying that ugly troll" she smirked. Lifting up slightly, she slid the letter back into his pocket before sitting down again and continuing to read her essay from her mother. She just hoped her Father would have written something in there to give her a little more comfort.
As her now dull green eyes sorted through the mumble coming from her mothers penmanship, she was heard gasping and grunting quietly every now and again at the obscenities (at least to morgana) her mother had been writing.
Scrunching up the letter forcefully, she threw it into the fire and it was soon swallowed up by the flames, turning it to ashes. "Let's hope that's one phoenix that doesn't rise from the ashes" she grunted angrily.
"Mother's in contact with a family, their boy is devine apparantely. I just think after the last one she picked that he will be even worse....No description, nothing! Just a boy, from a rich family, great in school, and "what you wanted Morgana"" she said the last with air quotes and in a mocking voice of her mother.
