A little Valentines Day Mayhem

Keith sighed to himself. This...was a little insane, even by his standards. WHo knows how much crap he would get for this? Or how many hours of detention.

For about the 600th time, he checked his quiver. The arrows were blunt, but had been dipped in sticking solution he had nicked from the dungeons. They were a go.

"Well, watch, this is it." He muttered, checking his small silver watch. It replied by flashing a ton of different colors and giving him a headache. "Thanks. You too." He muttered. He shook his head. "This is the stuff people become legends for...I just hope I survive it."

He shrugged off his sweatshirt and pants. The wings stuck to his back were actually fairly realistic, though he had no idea how he would get them off. The diaper was a little stupid, but all in the spirit of the holiday, right?

Oh, right. His subconscious sneered. Couldn't have gotten in the spirit of the holiday at christmas, could you have? No, valentines day. Idiot. Keith hit himself in the head. His subconscious was smarter than him, but that didn't mean he had to listen to it.

"Up, up and away," he muttered, throwing the door to the great hall open and begging to sprint dow the center isle. "Happy valentines day, **********"

Alexa was tired. The full moon had been a couple days ago, and she was still recovering. Plus she had tons of homework, and had not slept a lot. She was now in the great hall, eating a little bit of toast and trying to stay awake. She was just getting up to try to go to her dorm to try to sleep, when she heard something up by the doors. She blinked, shaking her head. Her lack of sleep was probably playing tricks on her, because there was no way that Keith Nicholas was wearing a diaper, and sprinting through the Great Hall with a bow and arrow. But, hallucination or not, it was funny, and Alexa laughed for the first time in days.

Sophia was in the Great Hall sitting at the Gryffindor Table not to far from Alexa who looked like she han't slept in days. Sophia knew she didn't look to swell herself for she was really needing blood right now and her eyes was starting to change colors on and people were starting to notice. Sophia took a drink of her pumpkin juice but almost spit it out when she saw Keith Nicholas in a diaper with wings, bows and arrows. Swallowing her pumpkin juice Sophia laughed and hook her head for she knew Keith was crazy for he raced his broomstick through the corridors once. "Real nice Keith."said Sophia laughing as she sat at the Gryffindor table.

Professor Wilson, who was head of Gryffindor and had therefore been forced to attend this silly and useless worship of and idiotic holiday, which was not even a real holiday. He disliked all kind of dances, but the ones for Valentine's Day had been a special pain. He took a sip of his tea, he always drank tea, and then noticed a idiot of a boy running around dressed like Cupid. He directed his view to his table and saw two students laugh. He stood up and walked a few steps, blocking the way for the running cupid. ''And what do you think you are doing, you fool?'', he asked the boy who was approaching. Although he was tall, he seemed even taller when compared to the little boy, which added special symbolism to the whole scene.

((Sorry James, but it's not the dance. This is actually Valentines morning. Doesn't really matter though.))

Keith waved to a few of the people who had began laughing, the knot of tension in his chest slowly unwrapping itself. This was his element. Deep down, Keith knew he was a performer, and no matter what situation he was thrust in, he could always just fall back on making people laugh. He was actually beginning to enjoy himself, which was of course when the first teacher noticed him. Great. He thought, twisting his body and skidding to a stop only a few inches in front of the professor. What now? But his mind didn't ned to bother, as his mouth was already shooting off. "Spreading the love sir. It's valentines day."

Vincent was dining at the staff table, having a small chat with fellow teacher Mccoy, about his annoyance at some certain students. But how the fear of punishment was controlling them from doing anything stupid against him. And right as he said that, he heard some students start laughing and looked up. A boy was running around, dressed like a cupid. Vincent narrowed his eyes and grinded his teeth together. "Nicholas! Stop embarassing us, and yourself and come here this instant!" he said

Alexa had stopped laughing by now, watching as Keith was contradicted by Professor Wilson. Maybe she was not just seeing things.. Yep, Keith was definitely there. She winced when Keith talked. Man, that boy had some nerve! He was talking back to the teacher, and one of the meaner teachers at that(no offense!). She smiled again. Keith was always happy! He nearly always had a smile on his face, and was always trying to make the people smile and laugh. Even when he wasn't trying, it always worked out that way.

What was Keith thinking? James vehemently spat in his mind. He's just embarassing everybody with this ploy. James spun his wand between his fingers. He did not find the cupid act funny. At all. This was supposed to be a romantic day for those who wanted it to be. Now was the right time for this kind of act. James slowly got up. It was his job to maintain order, and by Slytherin, he was going to do his job.
"Keith Nicholas, with me," he said, as he grabbed the boy's arm roughly with his faux arm.

"Ow." Keith muttered in a dull monotone as James grabbed his arm. "No. Don't. Please. You're hurting me." He said in the same monotone voice. "I'm just trying to spread the love man. All these haters man. They don't understand. You don't understand. And I think I just wet myself." He said, looking up at James. "In fear."

Alexa saw James walk up to Keith, and she rolled her eyes. James was a good friend, but he could be a little bit rough. She took her schoolbag off her shoulder, and walked over to Keith and James. "James? What are you doing? He was just trying to have a little fun." Alexa still had not forgiven Keith, but hey, he was still innocent...enough. Alright, she only stuck for him because he was cute.
