Seth watched silently, and laughed. He walked over towards Alexandria and sat next to her. "So..." he said, awkwardly. He lifted Alexandria up, sat down onto the chair, and placed her onto his lap. Everything was perfect ; Alexandria was everything he wanted. "I wonder when the first Defense meeting is," he said. That's what Seth referred to it now ; the Defense meeting. Since it was nameless and such, he called it that. Easier than 'the group Harry is organizing'.
ooc] tomorrow, Umbridge will post the 'degree on no school groups and all groups have to agreed to by her' or whatever xD
Alexandria smiled and placed her head on Seth's shoulder. When he asked about the next meeting, she shrugged. "I don't think Harry even knows. He's just a teenager like us, managing school, friends and Quidditch. He just has to add Voldemort and being the Boy-Who-Lived to his list. I think he has it pretty hard if you think about it," she whispered, shrugging. "That didn't answer your question directly... What I meant was that, he's just like us. Wouldn't you feel pressured and stessed and confused? I know I would." Shaking her head like it would organize her thougts, it didn't and she just got really dizzy. She grabbed his hand for support. Even if she was sitting, it didn't hurt to grab onto something and have support.

Seth sighed. He completely understood. All that stress could kill a person ; he didn't know HOW Harry dealt with it. Steadying Alexandria, he got up as well. "I need to go to sleep, darling," he said. "We all do. You look tired, you sound tired, you are tired." He smiled and kissed her forehead gently. "Want me to walk you up to your dormitory entrance? Or are you big enough to do so yourself?" He smiled, teasing her.
"I'm not five -- I can walk," Alexandria laughed. Hopping onto the couch. She kissed Seth on the cheek. "Love you," she whispered. Hopping back down, she walked quickly up the stairs and into her dormitory to change. Grabbing her extra-large yellow t-shirt and her pajama shorts, she changed (again she was the only one in the room) and crawling into bed. The moment her head touched the pillow, her eyes closed and sleep took over. She never dreamt when she slept. Sometimes she wished she did.

Seth smiled and waited a few minutes after Alexandria disappeared into her dormitory. He sat down on the couch ; his favorite one ; and dazed into the fire, not thinking about anything in particular. He wasn't so tired, but he did have to go to sleep, so Seth made himself get up from his chair after sitting there, doing nothing, for 5 minutes. He walked to the boy's dormitory and to his bed. Most of the guys were sleeping, but some were still awake, talking about their Quidditch win, so Seth pulled the blinds circling his bed so he could change into his pjs in privacy. His clothes were like his normal day clothes, except he changed into a baggy top and some clean, new boxers. Seth left his socks on (he likes to have the on when he's sleeping) and walked over to their bathroom. He quickly brushed his teeth, combed his hair, and made his way back to his bed. Seth tucked himself under his warm quilt his mother made him 2 Christmases back and his head hit his comfy pillow. In a few seconds, blackness slipped over and he fell into a dreamless sleep.
Seth woke up the next morning, the sun shining on his face. He groaned and deliberately got up. He rubbed the sleepiness away from his eyes and got dressed into skinnies, black tee, and his vans. Since his first class was at one pm, he wouldn't have to change into his uniform until late afternoon. Seth washed his face and brushed his hair and teeth, then made his way to the Gryffindor common room. Many people were crowded around a poster. Suddenly curious, Seth walked over to it and skimmed the page. He groaned. No student clubs or groups of any kind. And if someone wanted to start one, it had to get passed by Umbridge. No way would Umbridge pass the Defense meetings. Across from him, Harry look troubled, Ron looked frustrated, and Hermione looked utterly mad.
Throwing the covers off, Alexandria combed through her hair once and pulled it into a low pony. Putting in her spider-bite silver hoops, she grabbed her baggy light blue jeans with holes and a tight fitting green v-neck shirt. Pulling the curtain around her bed, she changed. Putting on socks she put her feet into her Vans and went to go brush her teeth and wash her face. Once she had finished after doing her morning rituals slowly, she walked down to the Common Room. There was a big commotion near a poster and she knew it was another one of Umbridge's rules. "I can't believe this... Now we can't have meetings for Harry's new Defense group!j" hissed a boy that walked by her. Alexandria sadly nodded her head and walked to the fire plaxe. "I'm not worried... Harry will figure it out. I'm sure of it," she whispered.

Harry shook his head. It was impossible for Umbridge to know about their groups ; Hermione performed every charm possible on the list so she couldn't read it. "It wasn't me," Hermione whispered, mainly to herself. Harry gave her a little hug. "Of course it wasn't," he said. Hermione looked close to tears. "Defense meetings won't be approved," Seth muttered. He shook his head. "We'll have to meet in secret," Harry decided. Hermione looked so happy she hugged him. "We need a new Defense teacher. She knows we're trying to overflow him. She knows shes bad. So she's banning all clubs. We can find a place... a place big enough for what, 50 people?" Harry grinned, and a ripple of laughter traveled through Gryffindor. "Look. I can get Dobby, the house elf," Harry shot Hermione and Ron an evilish grin, "To help us find a place. It'll be easy."
Sylvia was already up when everybody started showing up in the common room. Looking at the poster she frowned and then was about to slip away when she saw Seth. Smiling she gave him a hug and said "Good morning Seth. I hope you have a good day today despite everything. You too Alexandria. I would give you a hug but i don't think you'd like that very much." Her first class was in a few minutes so she needed to hurry in order to be on time. It was her only class until after lunch so she would have lots of free time on her hands.
