She had a fear in the pit of her stomach that he was going to try to get her back for what she had just done. But he had asked for it.
She took her drink and went back to Rayne and Nate. As she took another sip of her drink, she watched Sin for a moment over the edge of her glass, and she was quiet, deciding just to listen to these two for a few minutes.

Sin wasn't near as ready to go back to stand next to her, in fact the idea only made things worse until he could recover from her attack. He stayed at the drink table for a while alone trying to think of anything but Gwen Scotts. He finally gave up and headed to his dorm room for a cold shower instead.

Victory, she thought, smirking to herself as she watched him climb the stairs.
But if it was such a victory, why did she wish she still had him pinned to the wall? She was sorely tempted to follow him up, but then... but then what? She'd be putting herself in a position where he would definitely have the upper hand, and he'd realize that she was really just bluffing all along.

All dressed up and no where to go, or was it somewhere to go and nothing to wear? It wasn't Alyx's problem, it wasn't as if she could afford nice clothes or robes for that matter, she had one thing of value and one thing only and she would never part with it. Lightly she fingered necklace chain which held the object as it dangled down her neck and disappeared beneath her shirt. She wondered if only for that small second if someone missed her. It was utter nonsense surely, if there was someone out there looking for her they were doing a piss poor job of it.
Deciding then to simply grab a jacket and head down she left it unzipped and entered the common room just as Sin was leaving. Funny how her eyes always zeroed in on him first, she shook her head, well if he wasn't going to join there was hardly any fun to be had. Perhaps it was childish but she liked to think of him as a rival, he was the only one who seemed to get in as much trouble as she did. She would have to ask him later what had made him run off.

Rayne, in a mood now that she couldn't quite kick, gave Alyx a slight smile. Being in the same year, they were room mates, and Evelyn as well.
"Hi Alyx. How are you?" She asked while Gwen eyed Nate.

Nate seemed fairly oblivious to whatever was going on around him, or anyone looking at him. Except for Rayne of course. He gave a polite nod to Alyx but then kept looking between his shoes and Rayne. He was feeling exceedingly nervous and had noticed the exchange between Sin and Gwen though only for a moment near the end. Then he looked back at Rayne, nervous again.

"Hey Rayne..." she said a little distractedly, "Did you see where Sin was running off to?" she blinked a little before turning to face the girl, her own face then split into a grin, "Hi." she said again rolling her eyes at herself, "Sorry about that, I wanted to ask him something." she shrugged, "I'm doing well, how are you?"

Gwen smiled, once again like a cat.
"Sin will be back, doll, don't worry," she said. "He had a little something he needed to take care of."
There was so much bloody unrequited love between the Gryffindors. She would have to find someone willing to play matchmaker... and with that thought, her smile widened.
"So, the Yule Ball should be exciting. Do any of you know who you're going with yet? Nate, have you asked anyone? Girls, been asked?"

Alyx tilted her head at Guinevere, something to take care of...what exactly did that entail? Oh well, she could have fun without him, she just usually had more fun when he was around, but at least when he wasn't around she could relax. When he was nearby she had to prove herself constantly it was relaxing being on her own, and yet she missed him. He was her best friend after all.
"Gwen." she nodded with a smile. It was a little tight. She wasn't anyone's "doll".

Rayne waited until Gwen was quiet and shrugged. "I'm all right. I'm sure Sin will be back, though."
She crossed her arms and glanced back at Gwen. "News of the dance was pretty recent," she commented, "But no... I haven't been asked yet."

Alyx was quiet when Gwen asked about the dance, she didn't have a date, and she wasn't sure she was going. Maybe Sin would ask her...that would be...well it would be interesting that's for sure, she almost smiled at the thought but didn't. If Sin didn't ask her, she probably wouldn't go...she'd want to be asked to dance and she didn't know many people who would ask her, or who weren't already involved with someone else.

"uuhh.. no ... no date." He was suddenly envious that Sin had managed to escape. He felt like a cornered rabbit with three girls surrounding him talking about the dance. He knew who he wanted to ask but no way would she ever say yes. And he knew if he tried she'd probably punch him before he finished. "um... so uhh... I think I need to go take care of something." He had no idea why sin had left him alone, but right now his nerves were getting the best of him and he knew if he stayed any longer he'd be blurting out something that would get him punched. He gave one last look at Rayne and dashed up the stairs to his dorm room.

Alyx frowned, "What in the world...?" she asked confused after Nate took off as if the devil was on his tail. She made a face that insinuated Nate was a bit bizzare before glancing around a bit more, she knew he wasn't in the room, so really who was she looking for? But she could look for someone else, yes Sin was her best friend, yes she did most things with him, but she could be independent after all he's the one who decided to ditch.

Rayne's eyes followed him with bewlderment. What the hell had just happened?
She looked back at the 7th year.
"You seem to have that affect on boys," she said, her eyebrows raised. It should have been a joke, but Rayne, as usual, said it with a bit of a bite.

Alyx glanced again uncertainly towards Gwen, was she the reason Sin had left? Did she need to be hurt? What if Alyx could just threaten the girl? Well that might have been biting off more than Alyx could chew, the girl was a seventh year and financially probably she wielded a lot more power than Alyx, and she was bigger than Alyx, but you didn't live on the streets of New York for more than half your life without learning a thing or two about taking people down. Oh she was a fiesty one when it came down to it but these were just silly thoughts a girl might think she just balanced her expression with thinking about something else, something pleasant.
Although if she wasn't mistaken Rayne seemed annoyed as well.

"Hi everyone." Lyla said announcing her presence to the girls that were there. She was still younger than all of them but she didn't act nearly as young around them as she did around her brother. Then again they didn't treat her like she was ten either and that gave her a bit of confidence as well as independence. Here she was simply Lyla, the Drake wasn't attached really.
If it could be said Lyla and Lilac Drake were really two different people. In the Gryffindor common room around her peers she was a strong, independent, fun to be around, intelligent and generally nice person. At Slytherin she was Ethan Drake's little sister, shy as a church mouse, sweet as a button, to her brother at least, dependent, and utterly vulnerable, although she didn't really have to have any defense whatsoever. Ethan was her defense.

Jackie joined the group nearly the same time Lyla did. "Well, so this is where all the girls are hanging out," she said. She wasn't in the best of moods, as she was hoping the goblet would have picked her, but she still wore a smile and a good attitude.
"Is Alice not back yet?"

Alyx shook her head she hadn't seen the girl but she wanted to congratulate her on winning the position. She glanced around once more before sighing a bit.
She nodded and acknowledged Lyla's entrance said her greetings but was wondering if it would be excessively rude to leave.

"Shame," Jackie said. "I wanted to congratulate her. Where are all the boys of our house?"
If they weren't careful, this was going to turn into one huge Gryffindor slumber party.

Gwen smirked at the question, and took another sip of her drink. She knew exactly what both Sin and Nate were doing. At least only one of them was her fault.
"I don't know," she answered. "Maybe they're all with Alice."
