**helps Leo into the closet and covers him with several cloaks**
**whispers**
I'll be just fine, Leo!
**creeps into Bronagh's bed, feeling awfully anxious underneath the soft blankets**
**tries to practice what she will say in her head, anything from "Just kiss me!" to "Julian, I'm not afraid of you"**

*Graces Bronagh with a nod as he glides into the house, his feet hardly making a sound*
*Enters Bronagh's room again, looking flustered and angry as his eyes rest upon Selene's form in the bed*
*Raises his voice*
What's going on here?
*Scowls, looking tense as he discreetly sneaks closer to the bed, unbuttoning his black jacket as he moves*

*Snickers softly as Julian enters her house and heads for the stairs.*
*Continues to flip through the magazine, sighing with boredom.*

**avoids his icy stare, sitting up in the bed**
**decides to blurt out what she practiced, sounding overly rehearsed**
Julian, I'm not afraid of you. Bronagh asked me to take her place so you would know how...
**starts talking again, less rehearsed and less detached*
So you would know what having your dreams fall down on you feels like. You always win, only because you have those sea blue eyes and flawless hair. Everyone responds to you, unless they don't have a pulse. You can't always have your way, even if you're a Veela!
**looks surprised at her boldness**
Uhh... nice jacket, by the way.

*Feels shocked that Selene would say so very much while in his presence*
I see. Bronagh had second thoughts?
*Laughs, his eyes cold*
I can always have my way, dear naive Selene. If Bronagh were in the same room as me she would have responded instantly. She'd be even deeper into the covers than you are.
*Smirks, silently moving toward the bed, his face emerging from the shadow*
It's very dark in here. Does your boyfriend know you're playing this game?

*tenses silently as Julian mentions him*
*grasps his wand tightly, ready to pounce*
*isn't sure he'll need to wait for Julian's provocation to attack*

**nods meekly**
Yes, she seems to have figured what you're really like before it was too late. I don't really know her well, but that seems clever to me.
**her littles hands curl into loose fists**
I'm not naive and Leo trusts me! He has every reason to trust me.
**tears her gaze away from his candlelit face**

*Glares sharply at Selene, moving closer to the bed, suddenly without his black jacket and wearing a tight Head Boy shirt and black trousers*
Bronagh is beyond daft for setting this all up, Selene.
*Laughs mirthlessly*
It runs in your family, this stupidity. Your brother had... issues... when trying to stay away from me. There's no reason you should be any different.
Just tell Leo you were swept away and that it's biology. Your biology is weak to begin with. All it took was the tiniest touch from my finger.
*Using one finger he strokes her cheek*

**blinks, not comprehending**
**gulps as she notices how perfect his frame appears, eyeing the lines of his body**
M-my brother never mentioned that. You're lying, he sips his tea that way but you wouldn't do it for him! Neither of us is weak, that's completely shallow.
**looks up at Julian again and mentally takes that back, trying to ignore the finger on her cheek**
Y-you're wrong. Every girl has to allow herself to crumble, Julian.
**hopes she sounds convincing because her voice is trembling**

*Laughs, this time more sincerely*
Ask him yourself. Sometimes all of this shallowness, as you call it, clouds up everything. It affects the weak before the strong. The strong can resist but will eventually crumble.
*Slides onto the bed, his hand cupping her innocent face*
You're not so bad looking. You're no Bronagh, but you and I are both here. Let's see if you snog like your brother. I sincerely hope you don't.
*Moves his body closer and kisses her without warning*

You're lying...
**eyes pop before they close into the kiss, remembering how it felt the first time he kissed her in the Common Room. He had broken her heart after that and it felt like he had smashed it multiple times, making certain it was broken beyond repair.**
**tries to be strong and resist, opening her eyes again and only seeing a beautiful face**
**her fists uncurl, lying useless by her sides, timidly returning the kiss**

*Tosses the magazine on a nearby chair, and begins to absently twirl a strand of hair around her index finger. Her eyes travel to the ceiling, confident that Selene is slowly turning mush in Julian's capable hands.*
*Smirks at the ceiling.*
* Rises from her seat, and tip-toes to the kitchen for some of her parents rum.*

*watches with horror from the closet, not believing his eyes*
*struggles with himself, feeling as though he could rip off Julian's head with his bare hands*
*tries his best to point his wand at Julian and concentrates on doing the spell silently*
*forms the words with his mouth with out saying them outloud*
Petrificus Totalus.
*watches in horror as the spell hits the wall, shooting above the couple and quickly tries again*
*successfully hits Julian with a weak body bind*

*Groans his outrage as the spell hits him, causing him to fall onto his back, his reactions slowed down so much he cannot rise for a moment*
Bloody hell!
*Slowly grasps his wand and points it at the closet, knowing that Leo would be there*
Confringo.
*Watches the Blasting Curse smash up the closet doors, pieces of the door flying over the room, silently hoping that Leo will be injured*
*Leaps to his feet, but cannot use the left side of his body well enough to move*
*Swears* Bronagh hel-- hell... *Swears some more*

**shrieks when Julian fires a curse toward Leo, thinking that maybe they went too far with the setup**
**rushes to the shattered closet, trying to avoid stepping onto any sharp pieces, searching for Leo desperately, ignoring Julian's swearing**
Leo! Leo, are you all right? We need to get out of here!
**pushes past a large, jagged piece of wood, squinting through the dust, her cheeks pink and her lips bruised from kissing Julian**
