Here is where you will be able to catch a Quidditch Match. The stands are decorated in each of the house colours, with a multi-coloured stand for the staff. Towering above the pitch are 6 golden hoops. You can see the entire game from every seat. Watch out for stray bludgers, though! It is a Quidditch pitch, after all.
Passionate :: Excited by Danger :: Desire to leave your mark on the World!
Wandering down to the grounds, Stef bundled her robes around her. She'd heard something about one of the thestrals being loose on the grounds, and figured she'd better help find it. Hearing yelling about something getting set on fire, her eyebrows lifted and she went running in the direction of the voice. Thestrals didn't blow fire...at least she was almost positive they didn't.
The voice had come from the pitch...entering the pitch, she spotted Warren on the other side. Bundling her robes close again, she stood off to the side waiting to be noticed.
Oh...right the thestral, her eyes flickering around the pitch she hoped to spot it somewhere. At least this time she wasn't following him!
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
"Not EXACTLY what I had in mind." Becca walked up behind Warren and threw a towel at him. "But I'm sure it could be arranged." she smirked, crossing to stand in front of him. "What's up?" she smiled, hoping she wouldn't have to wind him up to get it out of him.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
Hearing an irritatingly familiar voice behind him Warren frowned. Why was it whenever he was in a self loathing spiral miss cheerful managed to suddenly appear? Turning around he caught the towel she threw at him. "What are you doing here Becca? Your depression siren go off? Or perhaps it's so you can try to get something out of me? Those are the reasons you come up here after all away from your little bubble in the Ministry." He looked around the pitch for his shirt and sighed it was all the way over on the other side. Figures. He squinted as he thought he saw a Stef over there and shook his head she would have come up to him if it was her, maybe he should try sleeping more.
"Can I not just turn up because I like to talk to you?" she smirked at him and then raised her eyebrows. "Well, you have something for me to get out of you?" she asked, looking at him innocently. "And it's not a little bubble, it's a big bubble." she smiled a little again and then sighed softly. "Warren, Warren, Warren." she shook her head at him. "This isn't good for you." she gestured at him, ignoring the rain.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
Pfft...talk to him. Yeah. Right. He remembered almost every single time that she wanted to 'talk to him' and none of them ended well. "No I don't as a matter of fact." He hung the towel she tossed at him around his neck and simply stared at her. "I beg to differ. Stefanie happens to find the muscles very appealing. And I'll have you know I was running laps. Now. Why are you here?" he repeated not letting go. There was no way in the world she was there because she liked talking to him. "Oh wait no. Let me answer that for you. You spoke to Stefanie and now here to try and...do what I'm not sure. So what are you here to try and do Becca?" Yeah he knew her all too well. He also knew probably why she was here but there was wishful thinking.
She could see it! Could see...wait Becca? Giggling she shook her head and ignored those two. She was on a mission, she could see the stray thestral. Ducking behind the Slytherin stands she proceeded up the stairs to the top. Inching her way through the seats, it hadn't spotted her yet. "Blasted skeleton horse." she muttered as her knee hit one of the posts. Quietly coming up behind it as it was using it's tongue to lick the wet rail on the stands, she leaped towards it aiming to tackle it by surprise.
Instead she ended up on the floor as it took off into the sky again.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
Raising her eyebrows, Becca shook her head. "So you're keeping fit, not running off frustration?" Like she was going to believe anything other than he was worried to hell and was running & thinking at the same time. "Well, congratulations, since you're not exactly boasting about it." she put her hands on her hips, glaring at him. "I'm not here to try and do anything, I'm here because I'm concerned about YOU." she looked at him pointedly. "I wanna find out how you feel about this whole pregnancy thing without you having to worry about hurting Stef's feelings or upsetting her." Not that she was emotional, she was meant that Stef was human. But then she rolled her eyes at some movement in the stands. Turning with a glance at Warren she headed towards the sound.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
Picking herself up off the floor in the stands, she growled irritated, SHE HAD THAT THING!!! Sitting down in one of the seats, she rubbed her knee where she'd first whacked it on a post then landed on when she dove after the thestral. Her eyes flickered over the pitch, she saw Warren still there, but couldn't see Becca from her point of view now. Looking into the air she didn't see the blasted thestral at all now.
Time to check by the lake...since she obviously could not find it any longer around the pitch.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
Warren narrowed his eyes and let go of the towel and crossed his arms as Becca spoke. "That's none of your business why I'm running." Yeah...she just knew him too god damn well. Very irritating. He watched as she started walking off and shook his head. "It's just a damn bird. But please don't stay on my account," he said sarcastically and dropped onto the grass and started doing push ups. "If you were really concerned about me...you would have brought firewhiskey," he said as he did the push ups. He glanced up at Becca and frowned. "I love Stefanie but..." Wait no but that draws questions.... DAMN IT! He stood up and stared at Becca "But I loved Alexa too and that turned out splendidly."
She turned as he spoke sarcastically. Walking back over to him, she narrowed her eyes. "Maybe I didn't bring firewhiskey, but I'm sure I can provide you with the bottle." she raised an eyebrow. Like she'd give him any of that stuff. "But...?" A curious look appeared on her face. "If you keep thinking and expecting for things to go bad, they will. Just have a little faith." she crossed her arms now and cleared her throat. "So what else is bothering you?" she stared at him expectantly.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
"Right," Warren muttered and crossed his arms. Why did he even talk to Becca all she did was irritate him or use his trouble against him and yet here he was talking to her...again. "I'm feel...trapped? I don't know. Here I am apparently going to have a kid which I never wanted with someone I love, and I do I love her but..... I don't know. Somethings missing? Maybe I just miss the fights with Alexa. Everything here is so...stable? It doesn't feel natural. And it should right? I should be happy with my life. I have a beautiful, smart fiancee, I have a baby on the way, I've got enough money where no one needs to work for at least 3 lifetimes but...I'm not happy." He looked at Becca and sighed, "I don't feel like myself. I mean hell I'm talking to you willingly. If that doesn't say somethings wrong I don't know what does."
Nodding, she looked straight at him, her eyes thoughtfully narrowing momentarily as he spoke. He'd never wanted kids? Ever? Then she had to giggle. "True, true." He never spoke to her willingly. "Well, after being an Auror going where you're needed and moving at the drop of a pin for quite a few years, stability would seem scary, I know." she nodded understandingly "It'll take a long time, but you'll get used to and come to love it. You never know what you've got 'til you lose it, please don't wait for it to be proven again." she looked at him with wide eyes.

You never know what you've got 'til you lose it, please don't wait for it to be proven again." she looked at him with wide eyes.
Warren stared out at the pitch as he listened to Becca and then turned ever so slowly to face her his temper soaring quickly. "What?! I DIDN'T MAKE ALEXA LEAVE! I knew damn well what I had and she's the one who left. You know what I'm done with this. Leave me alone Becca." He started heading off the pitch grabbing his shirt he turned and looked at her, "Don't talk to me about things you don't know about. If you had to deal with HALF the stuff I did...I can almost guarantee you'd be in Mungos right now talking to a god damn wall. You DON'T know me...about the things I've been through there's only one person in this entire world who knows everything about me. And it's not Stefanie and I don't think it ever will be. How do you explain to someone that you care about that you love them but you don't have the same connection with them? And is it really so bad that we don't have the same connection Alexa and I had? The one thing that linked us was all the crap I had to deal with when I was younger, my father, and the reason I became an Auror in the first place. But I always feel more at ease with myself, more of a connection with Stefanie when we're fighting. What you don't seem to understand is you can't FIX me. No matter how hard you try and you do try if you didn't you wouldn't be here now would you."
And here she came hair completely drenched now, hanging in strings around her shoulders from the rain. Her temper was flying because not only had she NOT caught the stupid thestral she had whacked her knee AGAIN on the way down the stands, her eyes were red from frustration with tears mixed in with the rain on her cheeks as she headed directly towards the exit on the grounds. She didn't even bother glancing towards Becca or Warren, she was going for a SHOWER!
Wiping her face on the damp sleeve of her robes she kept going quickly from the pitch.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
And there it was. The shouting. Letting him rant, she followed him quietly. When he was done, she just looked at him. Maybe she didn't know him completely, but she knew enough to see that he was still hurting over Alexa. "If this baby was Alexa's..how would you feel?" That was the one question she thought he needed to answer. Not for her benefit, but for his own. Then her head turned at some movement. "That's no bird." she muttered. Then without any warning, she turned back to Warren. "Stop being a prat, suck it up and deal with it! You're going to be a father, and Stef's completely in love with you, anyone can see that! Stop acting like Alexa's gonna appear and make everything okay for you. Be happy with what you have." Yes, she'd finally snapped at him. And yes, he was probably going to argue back. But she had a feeling that was what he needed right now.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
Warren stared at Becca blankly for a moment as he heard her question unsure of what to actually say. "If it was...what?" Why would she ask that? "It's not a matter of it being with Stefanie. I never wanted a kid in general but...what does that have to do with anything?" He looked up as he saw someone walking off and for a second he wasn't sure who it was until he got a good look at her. "Stefanie... Shut up Becca I don't want your opinion on how to handle my life. Now go be a dear and get me some firewhiskey." He tossed the towel back at her and ran after Stefanie. Had she heard? She looked like she was crying so she must have. Oi. He wasn't sure what he wanted in his life true but he knew he didn't want her sad. "Stefanie!"
Tossing some of her hair over her shoulder she tried wiping her face more but not succeeding more since her robes were wet as well. She heard her voice being called as she was almost to the exit of the pitch. Turning she saw Warren running towards her. "Warren?" she asked questioningly. He was still shirtless which probably was better considering it was raining. It wouldn't be sticking to him like her robes were.
Her face lost a little of the frustration but not much and her eyes were still red. The thestral had really irritated her, and she would catch it if it was the last thing she did. Right then though she just wanted a shower.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
Watching Warren in silence, Becca narrowed her eyes, but caught the towel as he threw it at her. He wanted firewhiskey? Fine. Summoning some, she stood there with her hand out, waiting to catch it. As the bottle zoomed towards he, she threw Warren a look of 'HUMPF'. Walking towards and pouring a drink for him, she bit her tongue. She wasn't going to say a thing except "Here you go." then her hand 'accidentally' slipped in Warren's direction. "Whoops." she smirked at him.
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
Warren studied Stefanie with a frown was she crying? He was about to reach out for her when he heard Becca behind him and turned around just in time to get a glass full of firewhiskey thrown at him. What in the? His eyes narrowed at Becca, "Excuse you!" He shoved his hands in his pocket and pulled out his wand and pointed it at her lucky for her he hadn't had his wrist holder. "Leave now Becca if you know what's good for you."
Walking closer, Stef nearly giggled at Becca when she tossed the drink on him. Wrinkling her nose as she got a whiff of it, she knew what it was. Firewhiskey. Wait...why did he want firewhiskey? Lifting her eyebrow she looked at him curiously, then widened her eyes when he pulled out his wand. Ok, she'd totally missed something.
"Well if there's nothing you need I'm going in." she said irritated shivering with cold. Ok, she normally didn't talk or act like that but she was freezing and that thestral had made her mad! Turning she began walking away again towards the exit.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
"Thanks! Saved me the trouble of asking." she grinned. Then her hands went up and she mockingly widened her eyes. Like he was gonna hex a pregnant lady. "Oh, I'm SO scared!" Then she sniggered and dropped her hands. "Put it away," she rolled her eyes and smacked his hand away. Emptying the rest of the bottle onto the pitch, she raised her eyebrows amusedly. Warren wasn't going to like it, but hey. "Stef?" Becca looked at her "You okay?" Well, if Warren wasn't going to ask, she was!
My love has no beginning, my love has no end, no front or back and my love won't bend My love has no bottom, my love has no top, my love won't rise, and my love won't drop. I'm in the middle, and I can't stop loving you
OH if only he hit women Becca would SO get it. He clenched his jaw and fist around his wand as she pushed his hand and glared at her. Lucky for her she was pregnant because he would have hexed her. Looking over his shoulder back at Stef he frowned. That wasn't good at all. "Becca go away I'll handle it," he forced out irritably then ran after Stefanie who already had a good lead on him. He shoved his wand in his pocket and pulled his shirt on over his head rather awkwardly as he ran causing him to trip a couple of times. "STEF! WAIT!" Hopefully Becca knew when to leave things alone.
She really wasn't in the mood for more of Warren and Becca stuff and didn't turn back around to either of them calling after her. She was frozen nearly to the bone and just wanted to get warm. Her teeth chattering now she headed for the entrance hall of the school, knowing that was the fastest way to get to her quarters.
Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. alone And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you?
"Fine." Becca sighed as Warren ran off and then moved past the wet spot on the pitch and sat down, looking up at the stars. Meh. Warren would be back to yell at her for sitting on his pitch. And like she was going to move. Bahahaha. But if she didn't go soon, Brian would get very concerned and come looking for her even though he knew where she was anyway.
