Dozing off...

" Don't blush," Angel stated simply," It makes you look like you have a bad sunburn,"

The blush faded as he glared at her. "Bet you burn to a crisp, ginger." he said sharply... but there wasn't much bite behind it.

Angel shrugged," It doesn't matter what happens to my skin under sunshine, I prefer the rain anyways,"

Glancing away and out the window to the Black lake, "I love water..." he muttered.

Angel smiled," Me too, especially if its getting thrown at someone," Pausing Angel raised her eyebrow at Alex," Correct me if I'm wrong, but do you live near the ocean,"

He snapped his head to her, "Yeah, why?" he asked, cautiously.

Angel shrugged," It's just the every time we water is mentioned you are so much more happier, I guess. Well not happier, but you become different," Angel said, struggling to finish her sentence,

He didn't reply. he didn't even know what to say to that.

" So I'm right, you are from the shore?" Angel asked with slight arrogance.

"Yeah. What of it?" he asked back, getting slightly defensive.

" I was just asking," Angel slightly shrugged," I've never been to the ocean, what's it like?"

He glanced out of the window again, "It's awesome. It's huge, alive, and fun to be in." he smiled as a memory hit him.

Angel grinned," It sounds like what I call heaven,"

He looked at her again, "What do you mean?" he asked.

Angel shrugged, " I've always lived in placed where I was always watched. I've always wanted freedom,"

"Are you okay with being watched by fish?" he asked, a little curious.

Angel laughed," Fish are okay, I guess. Though I haven't really seen any in real life," Thinking about what she said, Angel decided to add something," Other than on my plate at dinner of course,"

"During one of the weekends, you should join me. It'd be fun." he smiled again. "Do you know how to swim?"

Angel smiled, " That would be brill. And no I don't know how to swim," Angel sighed before adding," I can always learn though,"

"Want to meet me at the black lake later? I'll teach you." he offered.

Angel nodded brightly," That would be great," she chirped.

"After classes, meet me on the north side of the Black lake and I'll teach you. Meet me there?" he offered, sliding off the railing.

Angel grinned, happily," Sure thing," Angel gazed outside and realized she was late to quidditch practice," Well I have to go, bye Alex," Angel said waving before running off.

Alex turned and walked off, waving behind him.
