getting there[open]

Alecto Carrow awoke early that morning in the Slytherin Common Room. She had been awake almost the entire night though, envisioning what might happen the next day. It would be the first day back, the first day where all her classes started again, and in a way she was quite looking forward to them... Though of course it was commonly known that Alecto never payed attention in any class. She was smart and quick-witted but didn't study. At least not while others could see it. She would sit in her dormitory, drapes closed around her four-poster and read and study till the death of the night.. So that nothing could ruin her 'good' reputation..

Still, now she sat there entirely awake on her bed, looking around with her legs pulled up. Better go for a run She thought as she got out of her bed, quickly combing her hair and pulling it into a tight pony tail before slipping on her track suit. Her Roommates twisted and turned, groaning slightly as she put on the light, obviously thinking that Allie was crazy for going out so early to get a run across the lawns. With one last look in the mirror, she was off...

Ah, the wonderful breeze that was sweeping along her hair really did her good. This was one of the things she had missed most about Hogwarts, her early running laps around the castle and the lake. A few people were already on, mostly first years who tried to discover as much as possible on their first day of their magical education. 'Lecto however, didn't give them as much as a glance, though, they all stared back at the girl in her baby-blue trousers and the white shirt that clung perfectly to her body...

A few other crazy people were there with her, running in the opposite direction or walking with their hands in their middles, trying to get away of some aches in their stomach. Dru, however had been trained so good, that those itches were long gone. After an hour, she stopped and looked around, her hands on her knees, breathing softly in and out as she watched the upcoming son.

Time to go back, her dorm mates would probably be awake by now, plus she needed to take a quick shower before she went to her first breakfast in Hogwarts this year. She was a fifth year now, only two more years after this and she'd be out of school forever.. Probably marrying some pureblood wizard and have two or three kids.. Not that she liked kids, no, not at all, but she needed an heir to the the bloke's inheritance, whomever that may be... And well, it wasn't as if she was going to mind making them, as long as the sex was great. Now, someone like Lucius Malfoy might do the trick, though of course he was a bastard, but him and sex.. Well, that did mix together greatly..

Stepping inside the Castle again, a few people waved at Allie, she didn't as much as glance at them... Hufflepuffs were only worthy of being cursed... Slowly she walked to the Slytherin Common Room, already thinking over what she was going to wear until.. She was stopped right in front of the wall that blocked her entrance to the Slytherin Common Room. Saying the password, the wall started to rumble, but eventually it opened, revealing a few Slytherin's on the couch in front of the fire. Still, none of them where of great interest of her. So she walked on, almost going to the staircase that led towards her dormitory.. only, someone seemed to block her way.

[casper]

"Bloody creature!

[/color]" Casper grumbled, swatting away the the grey owl that had perched itself on the half asleep boys chest. Unfortunately for him, the animal seemed intent on waking him up, and only floated to the bed post when the scruffy haired lad rose to an upright position, rubbing his red eyes. "What the hell do you want? Waking me up this early?[/color]" He hissed at the bird, attempting to not wake his sleeping room mates as he tugged the parchment away from the outstretched claw. Unrolling the small note, Casper was forced to read through it twice before he finally understood the blurry words in front of him.

Inhaling deeply, the Slytherin threw the now crumped up letter from his parents into the case beside him and gave the bird a glare, knowing he'd be in trouble if he laid a single finger on the fluffy source of annoyance. Dropping back onto his pillow, Casper began scrambling around in his bed, attempting to regain the comfort and bliss that he had been drowning in only moments before. Typically, he could not keep his eyes closed long enough to drift off, and therefore he was forced to conclude that he was now going to remain awake for the rest of the day. Stupid bird.

Throwing back the emerald green covers and sliding his legs over the edge, Casper rose into a sitting postition once again, yawning rather loudly. Fortunately, he failed to wake up any of the snoring students surrounding him. Not bothering to change, the brown haired seventh year made his way to the mirror, fixing his hair untill it was practically perfect. Smirking at himself with approval, he glanced out the window as he passed before continuing down into the common room.

Casper Nott was not the only one still wearing his night clothes, as the majority of weary looking females and grumbling boys were also dressed in their pyjama's. However, there was not that many other Slytherins around him, meaning that they were fortunate enough to still be in bed, not having to endure the annoying problem that was being woken by an aggrivating bird. Casper himself was wearing a pair of black joggers, with a single white stripe down the right side. He hadn't bothered putting on a shirt, and was quite pleased to be showing off his rather toned upper body.

Yawning once again into the back of his hand, Casper decided that after just three minutes standing in the chilly common room he was cold, and wanted to return to his bed, whether he could sleep or not. As he reached the foot of the stairs, he paused, unaware that he was blocking someone. A small pang of hunger had hit him out of no where, and he was debaiting the effects of turning up to breakfast half naked when it occured to him someone was waiting to pass, leaving no option for him to turn around.

The sight infront of him brought a cheeky smirk to his face, pleased that he had ran into this particular someone. "Alecto, you look rather... tired out[/color]" He stated, his dark eyes running over her once before they met hers again. Although his comment was meant to be playful in a way, Casper was also rather curious as to what the fifth year actually had been up to. After all, he did take quite an interest in the lives of any good looking, classy Slytherin.

Alecto Carrow was about the head up, pushing whoever was blocking her out of the way. However, when her eyes locked upon those bright eyes of the one that was standing in front of her, she couldn't help but smirk softly, leaning against the stone wall that was next to the stair. "Well, Well if it isn't Casper Nott." she said smoothly while she crossed her arms in front of her chest, her eyes scanning over his own as she did so. It was no secret that Alecto Carrow knew what she wanted, heck everybody knew what she wanted,s he'd never been to sophisticated to hide that. Her father had told her that more than was needed, even when they had still been talking to each other.

Which now was not the case anymore. Two years ago, it had all started, the not-talking to each other. After that particular party that had made her to the person she was now. Once, she had been fairly naive, believing in the fairy-tale life of a princess. Her dreams had faded away like snow for the sun on that party. She had fallen madly in love with Rabastan Lestrange;, it was plain infatuation, yet, she had fallen hard, straight to where it hurt the most. They had slept together that night, but after that, it all went downhills, Rab clearly didn't like he as much as she had liked him and... her father found out which was the worst part. Rab had been her first, but in her father's eye she had been nothing more than a prostitute.

The thoughts were quickly brushed out of her head, not letting herself go there again as she checked out Casper's well toned chest. Perhaps this thing with Rab had turned out to be her sanctuary after all. For now, she would commit to anyone anymore. Just believe in her own self, have her own responsibilities and answer to nobody. If anybody else fell in love with her, too bad for them, because honestly, Alecto Carrow would probably not care about one more heart being broken.. as long as it wasn't hers.

"My, My Casper," she said with a grin as her eyes finally found their way back to his. "You like rather nice for such an early morning. Never considered you to be a morning person.", she said honestly as she brushed a strand of dark brown hair out of her eyes. Truth to be told, Alecto Carrow wasn't much of a morning person either, but she needed her daily runs through the lawns, else she'd just be too frustrated during the day. "I'm not tired out though. Could go for a few laps, but I figured you missed me to much so I had to head back." she said with a smirk as she put one leg in front of the other, curiously waiting for his reaction as she looked at him through her long eyelashes.

ooc: sorry, she's a seventh year... I kinda re hosted that post and forgot to modify.. oops!
