Serpentine Sextet

Nicky laughed. "I'm not sure that her heart would break, since I am the one who in love with her. So, it's gotta be me who will be broken heart. Alright... I'll just wait for her friends and boyfriend to keep her busy then. So that she wouldn't realize if i was there." he said a bit cheerful now. Roomates surely helps a lot.

Nicky heard Eli mentioned Elv's name. He winked to them. "Like Shakespears said... What did he say?? Oh never mind. Name's not important." he said and smiled with a better happy face. Not gloomy as always.

Looked at Selwyn, who apparently Elv's boyfriend. He smiled. "So now, what's yours??" he asked. From the first time he entered the room, Selwyn seemed to think something on his mind. It would be great to help him, especially if Elv included in his problem.

Selwyn frowned. Not in anger or anything, more like, confusion. At least, that's what it was supposed to look like.

"What's my what?" he asked.

Scorpius entered the dormitory, where the others were having a conversation about something. He was a little to tired to ask what, and it wasn't like he cared anyways, they never did talk about important stuff, they were probably just talking about the latest gossip happening at the castle. He had just come from the Forbidden Forest, where he had went with Rose, and was in a pretty bad mood. "Hey guys," he greeted them, yawning.

Nicky laughed. "Your problem of course... Do you want to borrow a mirror so you could see you confuse face?" he said Selwyn. "I can smell problems." he said quietly and grinned to his two roomates. Suddenly another roomate came. "Hey, Malfoy. You look awful..." he greeted him. Why everybody seems to have problems today?? He sighed.

"Thanks," Scorpius muttered, rolling his eyes. He was a bit stressed out, but he was to tired to talk about it, and didn't want to anyways. Scorpius didn't really really like talking about his problems to other people, better just to dwell in his own misery.

Selwyn just shrugged. There was no way he was telling his dorm mates all his life problems. It could only lead to worse problems.

"Guess it's the stress of the Tournament, or something," he said. "They wouldn't tell us what the first challenge is, only that it's supposed to test all our magical skills. Everyone else is off practising spells and duelling their mates right now," he improvised.

He thought of the other thing he'd learned in the meeting and wondered if not sharing it would give him more of a chance at finding a partner. Probably not. Besides, the other three will go and tell everyone if he didn't.

"Oh, and there's gonna be a Yule Ball after the first task," Selwyn informed them. "And Shacklebolt reckons it's compulsory for everything that moves in Hogwarts, including ghosts and house elves. Can you imagine Peeves at a ball? Besides, we just had that masquerade."

Which really wasn't as important as Selwyn's house elf phobia.

"Yule ball huh?" Scorpius commented, sitting up again. He wondered who he would take. Rose? The whole house would laugh at him. "I doubt they'll let Peeves there Selwyn, he'll just wreck everything.." he added. But then again the Headmaster was a little crazy. Well a little was an understatement.

Nicky grinned. "Oh yeah... That matter. Good luck for your first task anyway, Thorfin." he said to Selwyn. "No one killed at the first task, as far as i know. So, don't worry." he added. Being a champion is really a big stuff. He couldn't handle it. He's too lazy to even practicing spells. Enough for being a prefect.

"Oh yeah... Yule Ball. I'm up for any suggestions about the decoration and stuff." he said. It must be really interesting to help decorate. "It really near... So, find yourself a partner. Or you guys would be dancing with yourself..." he grinned again. Nicky seemed to forgot his problems.

"You think I wouldn't set a trend for dancing with one's self?" Selwyn asked. "Slytherin champion remember? House bad-boy. If I did it, everyone else would dump their partners like that."

He snapped his fingers, just in case Nick didn't get the picture.

"That reminds me, we should go down to the Triple W and pick up some stuff for the night. Scorp, you got a date yet? Doesn't matter, you can still come with."

Nicky laughed. "Oh, yeah... That would work, Thorfin. Great idea anyway. For those who don't have date." watching Selwyn snapped his fingers was fun.

"Hey... I am a prefect, remember? No such things like dung bomb, okay?" he said in a serious tone. Then he laughed. They would buy that kind of thing, anyway. With or without his permission.
