"I imagine she's still speaking with Dumbledore and the other champions. There's a lot to be covered, isn't there?" Although Rayne couldn't really imagine what they would have to talk to the champions about for so long, especially since they didn't get the tasks until the night before.
She wondered if the tasks would be broadcast to the whole school when they were announced, or just the champions. It was going to be an interesting tournament, whatever happened, especially with the tension between three of the four girls.

Nate nodded, "yeah you're right I'm sure she's just being held late with the judges and Dumbledore. Maybe they get some kind of intructions or something ahead of time." His eyes went to Rayne and he watched her silently. She was so beautiful, the thought floated into his head unbidden and he managed to blush before looking away.

Gwen only nodded, and wondered if the celebration in the Ravenclaw common room was also missing their champion. She imagined, if anything exciting happened, that Thane would tell her about it.
She looked at the two boys, then at Rayne, and her eyes drifted between Rayne and Nate for a moment. That girl was oblivious in every way possible.
"Well, I'm thirsty, and there's a perfectly good bowl of punch or something over there. Would anyon else like a glass?"

Sin had also noticed the look from Nate, he had it bad and the girl either ignored him or had no clue. He would have rolled his eyes mentally if he could. When Gwen said she was getting a drink he said, "yeah I'm thirsty too, want some company?"

Whether or not she did, she figured Nate would want them gone, so she smiled at Sin and nodded.
"I would love some company, thank you. Either of you two want something?" She asked, returning her attention just briefly to the two fifth years.

Rayne shook her head. “No thank you, I’m fine. Nate?”
For some reason, her mind was elsewhere, but she didn’t even know what she was thinking about. Maybe it had just been a long day, or perhaps she just wasn’t interesting in talking about the champions anymore when theirs wasn’t present yet.

"No I'm fine thanks... " Nate trailed off as his gaze returned to Rayne. "Rayne.. are you okay?" he asked quietly when he noticed she seemed distracted. She seemed like she had her mind on other things but couldn't imagine what. He wondered briefly it if had something to do with Evelynn who was also mysteriously missing.

Gwen nodded at the two, and then looked towards Sin. "Shall we?" She asked, looking into those too-blue eyes of his. Merlin, those eyes must get him into a lot of trouble.
When they were far enough away, she laughed. "Godric, those two are almost nauseating, aren't they? So much so it's kind of adorable."

"Hm?" Rayne asked, looking up. "Yeah, I'm fine. Really." She gave him a gentle smile. "I think I'm just tired." Or maybe she hadn't kicked the cold that prevented her from putting her name in the goblet. (Well, she hadn't felt like it when she was sick, so it was a mental prevention at any rate).
"Where is our house? Alice, Frank, Evie, Bek... everyone's missing."

Sin walked beside Gwen towards where the drinks were. "Yeah it's sad actually. They are a mess but you can't help but feel sorry for the guy. I dont' know how he has the patience for that girl, she's got a temper that makes even me stear clear when she gets going. He must be some kind of saint... I sure as hell wouldn't. I may be recklace but i'm not suisidal."
In Sin's eyes the boy was half idiot and apparently love was blind if he couldn't see that he was playing with fire in Rayne. She was a hellcat and you'd have to insane to want to get burned.

"I should let you in on a little secret about girls," Gwen told Sin as they headed towards the table with the drinks. "We are all fully capable of having that same kind of temper. I feel bad for any guy in love with any girl. The thing about Rayne is that she's... less subtle." That was a nice way of putting it. "She's not afraid to speak her mind or stand up for herself, and you have to admire that in her. It's going to take a hell of a guy to handle her, but who knows? Maybe Nate's up for the challange."
She picked up an empty glass and handed it to him after she filled it, and then her own. "But you're a fool if you think any of these demure, mousey girls don't have that same fire in them."

Sin considered that, and had never really thought it before. "Are you saying that you are a hellcat too then?" He was half teasing her as he took a few precautionary steps back and grinned. "Maybe I should just never fall in love then and I won't have to worry about it." He looked around at the girls in the room and he gave her a doubtful glance.

She smiled slowly and took a sip of the drink. "I certainly can be, given the right situation."
She took a step foward to match his back. "And I have another secret for you... something Rayne hasn't let herself figure out yet... is that when we're the hellcat you're so wary of, it's often because we're fighting for love. Girls are emotional creatures... and I think it scares the hell out of most guys that a girl can love that much and fight that hard for them."

Sin swallowed as he realized he'd back himself into a wall literally. "Well lucky for me, I have never fallen in love, and no woman has gotten her hooks into me yet." Which was very lucky, it was one thing for someone to want him, it was something totally different for them to love him. Love scared the hell out of him, the least of which was the fact that if it ever found him he knew he'd be snared forever. He knew she was right though.. it scared the hell out of him too.

"Where is our house? Alice, Frank, Evie, Bek... everyone's missing." Nate just shrugged but he noticed his hands were sweating now and his heart was racing... he wondered about asking her to the dance but thought better of it... maybe another day he'd get up the courage. Right now though he was just trying to concentrate on anything but Rayne that he'd been again left alone with. |

Gwen smiled, almost smirked in fact. Oh, if only boys could realize how much power a girl really had. Well, no, because then they would be more immune to it. But all she was doing was talking about love, and he nearly let himself be backed into a corner, and he looked vaguely uneasy.
"You're also sixteen," she pointed out. "Give it time. There will be a girl who manages."

"I somehow don't think age has anything to do with it." He was looking at Gwen with a wary expression as if he was about to be eaten whole if he didn't distract her soon and manage to escape. Why hadn't he been paying attention to the fact that now he'd managed to get himself corned by a woman who was by all acounts telling him how some girl would snare him if he wasn't careful. He broke out in a sweat at the thought.

Rayne crossed her arms over her chest, a little miffed that hardly anyone was here. Was there another party somewhere that they hadn't been aware of? How silly would that be when the common room was for Gryffindors alone.

"No?" She asked, and bit her lip prettily as she considered her next words to him.
She knew he had nowhere left to go, so she took two more steps forward, until she was toe to toe with him. "You don't think that a woman would be better able to capture your attention with a couple more years of experience on her? A woman who would know exactly what you wanted, just by breathing you in..."

Sin swallowed, his eyes were liquid blue heat though, there was something she was doing to him and he wasn't quite sure what it was, and he was sure it was something he wanted to escape from. But something in him half enjoyed it too. "Well lets test your theory shall we?" He was grasping at straws but he hoped his gamble paid off if he called her bluff, "do you think you could capture my attention and figure out exactly what I want?" and would you really be able to breathe me in....? he wanted to shiver at that last thought.
