(Hogsmeade) Typical Boring Weekend

[Bradyn Reed]

Bradyn didn't really have plans for this Hogsmeade trip, which was odd. He continued walking down the street and window shopping until he soon got to the point where he just sat down and wouldn't move a step more. He found a stack of crates in front of a shop that seemed stacked just right for a seat. Bray was bored, there was no doubt about that and he wondered if he'd run into any of his friends. Or anyone in general, it was pretty busy around here but he wasn't recognizing people even if they were Hogwarts students.

Leaning back against the wall he sighed and closed his eyes. Even if he didn't see anyone, it would be nice to just sit and relax without any work to do... "That's right.. I'm still doing poorly in Herbology." Now Bray was talking to himself, maybe he should talk to someone before the word started spreading that he was completely mental.

[blah.]

Erika wandered through the streets of Hogsmeade, her sensitive ears picking up every sound within a one mile radius, including that of a boy, speaking to himself. Snickering quietly, Erika wandered over to where the boy was standing. "Wow, never thought I'd see the day when someone would be so bored that they'd actually resort to talking to themselves in public!" The young vampire smiled, her razor-sharp fangs glinting in the late afternoon sun. "I'm Erika. Erika McCallister. And don't worry, I'm not going to bite you."

Bray opened his eyes when his cat senses alerted someone coming. Not really recognizing the girl, he folded his arms in front of his chest. "It wasn't as much of talking to myself, as it was reminding myself. I'm sure we all do it at some point." He scoffed, a little surprised that she heard and would even comment on it. Bray stared a bit at her teeth before rolling his eyes.

"Oh that's good, because I was really thinking you would right in public." Bray smiled though, for some reason having someone to talk to - even if the words were unkind - was clearing up his nasty mood. Bray scooted over on his crate to make room in case the Gryffindor wanted a seat. "By the way, name's Bradyn Reed, but you can call me Bray if you want. I don't seem to recognize you."

Erika smirked. "You don't recognize me because you've never seen me." she quipped. "So, what are you doing, just hangin out, or are you here for a particular reason?"

[Bradyn Reed]

"What, do you live under a rock or something?" He said, knowing that even if he hasn't met everyone, for that would be impossible, he's probably at least seen most of the students. Bray shrugged and decided to let it go, she was obviously older than him and he decided he didn't really want to start anything.

"What? Can't a mental person sit on crates and talk to themselves without a reason?" It was all he could think of to say, for he had no reason for being there. He was just bored and too chicken to get a date.

Erika's temper flared at the boy's answer. Her eyes flashed red, and she snarled showing her fangs. "Hey! All I did was ask a question!" She snapped. "If you don't wanna talk that's fine! I'll just leave!" With that, Erika stood and walked off. Leaving jerk-boy to sit by himself.
