Dragon Cabin
The day after the truth or dare incident. Levi Drakos was going to take Winnie Harper on a date. He had no fear that his secrets would be revealed, Levi did not know any that he deemed relevant. He was simply not willing to share his toys. Playing the role of jealous boyfriend would only grant Drakos a victory that he could not allow. He needed to destroy what little hope the slithering slimeball had left.
He had given Levi a 'gift' of sorts. A woman, well a reasonable facsimile of one, was left in his possession. Yes, Mathias was a giver and Mathias had given Levi a mate. Someone to keep him in line basically. Someone who was failing at their job.
The ever benevolent Pride would again have to intercede. "NIKITA!" Pride would bellow into the cabin. She was hard to miss, likely sawing off a massive toenail that could be used as a martial weapon. "NIKITA!" He would repeat.
The plan was simple -- tell her about Drakos' dare. About the date. The time, the location and let the amazon do what she did best - cast punch. He took off his glasses and slipped them into his breast pocket and ran his hands through his hair to remove that infuriating part. "Nikita," he would finally say in a less stern voice once she was visualized doing whatever it was that she was doing.
"Why is your boyfriend hitting on my girlfriend?"
Yes, accuse her. Why was she not forcing him into a closet to make out or whatever it was that the larger women of her calibur did to tiny men like Drakos.

That's right. Levi Drakos was her boyfriend (she thinks, at least.) She really did like him. He was handsome, and polite. What's that saying? Opposites attract? Well that must certainly be true. She was tough, he was... Levi. She was hot tempered, he was... calm? She was not as good looking as him. But ever since she had forcefully kissed Levi, she just knew that she loved him. No, she hadn't been poisoned. Not this time. This was real.
She sat in the cabin, not really minding the absence of her lovely man. She was sure he had just gone to do some quick things, she had no idea what he was really doing. Of course, she had never mentioned to Levi that they were dating, it just kind of happened. So he wouldn't of told her where he was going. He must of forgotten. She held a book in front of her because, unfortunately, summer doesn't put a halt to her education importance.
Everything was going great as she hummed happily, flipping the page.
"NIKTIA!"
Nikita recognized the voice, and pointedly chose to ignore it. she hummed louder.
"NIKITA!" She sighed and shut her book.
"What?!" She snapped. "I'm not in the mood for your games, Pride!" She said, before he would even start. But... She certainly imagined his words. The world slowed down and sped up in a matter of two seconds as Nikita jumped off the top bunk. "WHAT?! Are you lying? Your lying, right?!" She asked, almost demanding, as she advanced on him, fuming.

"What?!"
There was her characteristic angry noise, her voice. It was not calming or sweet, it was gruff and snappish.
"I'm not in the mood for your games, Pride!"
Well, she was stuck playing if she liked it or not. He was not going to be sent off by her PMS. He told her anyways, soon Levi would be subjected to the wonders (terror) of feminine hormones.
"WHAT?! Are you lying? Your lying, right?!"
"You'd kick my ass even if I told the truth. Why the heck would I bother to lie!" A truth, there was no need to embellish.
"Levi allegedly kissed my girlfriend," he said allegedly because he really did not believe it but a scoundrel such as Levi likely had enough honor to tell the truth during a game of truth and dare so he gave the quip -- "not as good as your girlfriend" credence. "Although he might be claiming that to get to me," he admitted. If so, touche - it got to him. Winnie had way better taste than the cardboard cutout of a boy Drakos represented. Sure he looked fine, OK he thought Levi looked pretty good even if he was pocket-sized. But the interest ended there - at the physical. As soon as he opened his mouth, admitted his aspirations, attempted to discuss anything he was a true disappointment wrapped in petulant privilege.
She could do so much better, and she had with Mathias.
"So to piss me off," yes this was all about him and that was part of the issue. The fact that Levi was going for her at all was because of her association with the Slytherin, not a keen interest. "Levi dared Winnie to go on a date with him," he explained. In teenage the logic made complete sense. in adult, not so much. She could have said no, there was no mystical hold - the power of the 'dare' that compelled her to comply anymore than it compelled one to tell the truth.
"Not like he is interested in her, but he is going to make some moves just to ruin my day." Yes this was still all about him. And to reinforce the fact that Levi will make a move for the sake of messing with him. He let out an agitated noise and crossed his arms. "Not going to play the agitated, jealous boyfriend," he claimed despite the fact that was exactly what he was. He was just being smarter about it, he was going to make the 'passionate' (that is not the right word) Nikita do his dirty work for him. "I just need someone to yell at," he slumped against the wall.

Nikita raised her eyebrow. "So does that mean Just get to kick your ass, now?" She asked. Was that a joke? Yes! Don't be too surprised, Pride. "Just tell me what Levi is up too! " She said, grabbing his arm and shaking it. She probably grabbed his arm harder than she intended, though, because she could feel a pulse under her hands as she grabbed his arm.
She let go immediately.
"he WHAT?!" She yelled, and it was possible that Levi could hear her all the way from the lake. She was pretty sure mars heard her. "Wait, you have a girlfriend? Oh- whatever! " She said, shaking her head, along with her surprised expression.
She shouldn't be too surprised, after all. Pride wasn't ugly or anything, he just g it under her nerves. Like, a lot. Her favorite dream recently involved something with his face being in a bludger as she hit it in a quidditch game a reminder of when she used to be a beater.
"To get to you? Wow, you have feelings?" She remarked, crossing her arms. "Okay, but get to the damn point, Pride. " She demanded.
Oh, the truth really sucked. Really.
This felt worse than a slap to the face. A slap she four easily return, but harder. This, however~ She sat on the bunk under hers, thinking. Then she looks up. "Oh, so this is about YOU! Not that girl! Not me! You want me to do your dirty work! What's in it for me? Levi isn't even actuality cheating in me! It's to get under your skin! Kudos to him!" She yelled.

"So does that mean Just get to kick your ass, now?"
"Not if you want answers," he defied. A broken face would make that a lot harder than an intact one. She might have gotten away without incident with the first blow but there was a purpose there, to demonstrate a pattern that she could not explain away as an "accident." To show her as a violent, brutish deviant. One that he needed protection from. One that needed to be tethered, caged, potentially spayed for the betterment of humanity.
"Just tell me what Levi is up too! "
She would grab hold of Mathias's arm and shake him like a ragdoll, causing his glasses to fall askew. She would feel his pulse however and despite her violent, brutish physicalities, his rhythm would not hasten.
He would tell her the truth -- the alleged kiss, the date dare and of course that he was certain to make a move just for the sake of vengeance.
"he WHAT?!"
She exclaimed, leaving the boy's ear's ringing as a result of her harpy cry.
"Wait, you have a girlfriend? Oh- whatever! "
Yes, his girlfriend. Things change woman!
"To get to you? Wow, you have feelings?"
He crossed his arms, mirroring the girl's closed off and aggressive posture. "As if that is an actual shocker," all he ever did to her was kiss her date one time and then lord it over her so that she would force herself on the rich (looking at least) little prick. On the spectrum of things he might be, an asshole was really all he was or should be.
"Okay, but get to the damn point, Pride."
Levi - cad. Winnie - date. Do the math, more than just Mathias.
"Oh, so this is about YOU! Not that girl! Not me! You want me to do your dirty work! What's in it for me? Levi isn't even actuality cheating in me! It's to get under your skin! Kudos to him!"
"Of course," he replied calmly. "We are not friends," he reminded her. "I am not telling you anything for your sake, as some misguided attempt to ensure the continuation of whatever it is you think you have with him." He cocked his head to the side, like a curious bird with a crueler expression. "But that does not mean that our wants can't align. I could care less about her," he shrugged. "But she is mine and I refuse to share my present favorite toy."
He paused for a moment, tried to let it sink into her simian brain. "Levi is as far as your are concerned yours unless you have forfeited him already," so take it or leave it girl. He knew how it was going to pan out in the end, they were not friends. They were not acquaintances but they had things that they both wanted. Mutually shared goals.

Nikita couldn't help but scoff at Matt. "Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're not the nicest person... or nice at all at that. I don't know who would want to date you, Pride. But that girl must be crazy." Despite the fact that Matt had stayed silent until then, she was able to get enough information on what was going on. she didn't know what, but she wasn't sure she liked it.
Something was fishy here.
She listened to Matt, and rolled her eyes. "Darn, and here I was thinking we were best buds." Sarcasm dripped from her voice like venom. Like poison. Then she shook her head furiously. "Pride, if I know you, anything you do for "MY" sake is just for you." She said. "Or if you wanted something from me. In this case, I'm guessing both." She remarked.
She watched him with squinted eyes, like a lion watching it's prey. She was trying to hear the lies in his words, but it was hard. "You don't know what i want, Pride. You nothing about me at all." She snapped. "And you can't OWN anyone, you know!" She said. But his words were sinking in. "Okay, okay. If it will make you shut up, I'll go and get my boyfriend." She said, grabbing her black boots and putting them on.
"Where are they?" She asked. "Are you coming, or are you going to be a coward and stay where it's "Safe"? Because mark my words, Pride. I don't know what you're trying to do, but I'm done playing your game. So I suggest you come along to watch my last moves." She said, heading for the door.

She seemed to be under the delusion that he cared what she thought. That she had an iota of relevance beyond the fact that she was mildly useful to him, sometimes. A fact that she seemed to fail to appreciate as she went on about how she knew despite all his cunning deflections that he was not doing anything for her sake. Honey, if I was trying you would have no idea.Mentions: @Levi Drakos & @Winnie Harper

"I know that you want to be right. That you want Levi, even if he was not worth wanting. He became something to want the moment I turned him into a prize," he reminded her. Yes, he kissed Levi and yes it lasted a long time. Was it something to be jealous over? Perhaps, but did she really want young Napoleon? A boy that had the personality of a cardboard cut-out when it came to the allegedly fairer gender but looking at Nikita, 'fairer' was not an apt description in the least. "You wanted him because I had him," he shrugged. "You will continue to want him because despite Pride being my namesake, it is your pride that will compel you to keep him in line." Not because she loved him. Not because she lusted for him. But rather because she felt she had him. That if someone else had him that he was taken, stolen; that she was abandoned. A common issue with women, with people in general - this dire sense of insecurity. this need to feel accepted. This want to be -the- yes THE most wanted, the ONLY one. Wasn't that the reason for monogamy, a need to possess? A want to own another person.
"No, I am not coming." Mathias announced with a slight grin. "You see, I know Winnie is interested in him because Levi is fun to look at," he admitted. A man can enjoy art, even if the implication was sexual Mathias meant it in another way entirely but that was the intention. Levi was fun to look at because he was a royal bastard and frankly Mathias loved him (sure, you can call this lust) for it. Winnie probably liked the eyes and the hair. Maybe she liked a man that she could physically dominate. "If something happens between them, which it probably will, I will make certain she returns to me regardless." There was the sort of confidence in those words that only comes from a man playing with a stacked deck which in Pride's case was the absolute truth.
"I just know that Levi was going to take her someplace just outside of camp, privacy," he reminded her. Privacy that she could have had with him had it been her on this date.
