Reading become the only other thing Keith did besides hide and go to class. He'd find a spot somewhere on the Hogwarts' grounds, inside or out, and read for hours. It helped him forget things for a while, letting his mind escape to fantasy worlds rather than the way life was going currently for him. It was a small comfort he had here, one that didn't affect anyone else too.

Right now the tired kid was sitting in a small space where a few walls of the castle left a small space to hide in. He had a book in his hands and was leaning back against the wall. He had a waterproof blanket under him and a warm blanket around him to keep from getting to cold, although where he was barely got wind since it was like a cubby hole.

Running, an old hobby Keith used to love. Now his body hurt most of the time so he never went anymore. He didn't like it, especially sine running was a huge stress reliever for him before the incident. Now it was a longing of his, wishing for the day he learned to deal with the pain and live normally again, or as normal as a werewolf could.

Rest was what the boy needed, but his mind never let him get it. He was comfortable under the warm blanket, half asleep when he heard someone say his name. He ignored it at first.

Repeated, he heard his name a second time and a third so he put his book in his satchel.

Responding the boy said, "Yo?"

The year felt freeing. Compared to last year, he was happier, doing better in classes, he was back to his normal self. Or about normal, for him. Jay was never the most average guy when it came to personality, sticking out in a crowd even when he wanted to just melt away to nothingness. He was a teenager. About to be fourteen, wasn't that a crazy thought. It felt like forever ago when he was just a small muggle playing football in his front yard, unaware of the world of magic. His third year was his year. It had already been good for him.

Jay didn't like the courtyard. It was cold, it was deary, but it was fresh air, so he went anyways. The dorms were getting too loud, and he's learned to listen to his body when it screams at him to get out. Last time he didn't, he ended up with detention and a real bad black eye. The muggleborn didn't expect to see a familiar face out here, given that he hadn't interacted with many last year (or the first half of this year, but that was because he was getting grades up). He did, in fact, see a face he hadn't in a long time.

Keith looked, for lack of better words, terrible. He was see the heaviness weighting down the others bones. Bags under his eyes no matter how long he slept. He knew those feelings. "Keith!" He called from the other side, walking across in a brisk pace, ignoring the wind that has decided to have a fight with his fluffy hair. "Keith?" Jay tried a second time, but he assumed the wind took it away from the boys ears. It certainly took it away from his. He glared at the air in general, stopping in front of his fellow Gryffindor.

"Earth to Keith?" The pink haired boy joked, and at that, finally, he was acknowledged. See, who said persistence was a bad character trait? "Hey. It's me, Divus, you 'member me?" Likely not, but it was definitely worth a try. The hair might throw anyone off. Brown to pink was a radical change, his face was just the right amount of grummy, and it's been too long since he and Keith have spoke. Maybe. Memories are not his strong suit.

Clark held two cupcakes in his hand, one vanilla with a chocolate icing, and the other lemon with chocolate icing. He walked out to the Courtyard, seeing some kids talking. He rolled his eyes and advanced. He walked up to Keith, handing him a cupcake. "I don't know about you.. but today seems to be a day for someone sweet. How have you been?" He asked, but his expression dawned as he faced Jay.

"Dear, oh dear. What the fuck is wrong with you?" He said. He groaned, remembering that Keith was around. Fine. "Okay, I'm sorry." He said, not specifying, not wanting to be so specific as he still wanted to pick a fight with Keith.

He muttered. "You're trying too hard. And if you're thinking about taking him on a date, forget it." He grumbled, trying to keep his words low, at a whisper where hopefully only Jay could hear.

"I heard its your birthday today Keith." He said, brightening his own face back up and putting on the happiest tone in his voice. "Happy birthday old man." He thought for a second. How old was he? "Are you.. two? DID YOU JUST TURN THREE?" He exclaimed jokingly.

Hearing his name the boy perked up a bit, his hearing had heightened a little bit the past 2 months. He'd been warned that his senses would heighten, but he still wasn't used to being able to hear a lot better. It made him oversensitive in crowded areas, more so than he used to be.

Divus... Jay. his hair? why haven't we notice that? We've seen- I've seen him in the dorms. Maybe I'm too tired to notice anymore." Keith thought as Jay waked up to him. Keith slowly got up, looking at him and blinking for a moment.

"Dont forget people 'member? Course I remember my favorite dormmate. Your hair looks nice." He tried to be polite. That's when he seen a boy he hadn't in a while.

"Is that Clark? It is. oh merlin it's been a minute He still really cute-" Keith thought to himself as his cheeks grew a light pink. He took the cupcake from Clark and smiled ever so slightly. "Thanks...." He mumbled loud enough for Clark to hear him.

Keith didn't get a chance to answer Clark's question before he watched Jay and Clark talk to each other. "Clark seems jealous... Why's that? Sorry-? Right talk Keith"

"Jay is my dormmate." Keith responded.

Clark said another thing that made Keith think he was acting a bit jealous, and suddenly Keith didn't feel like this was too much. He wanted to giggle actually, a smile creeping onto his face.

Then he paused, Did he say it's my birthday? It's not the 25th already- is it?What-"

"It's my birthday?" Keith muttered, "Is it really the 25th already?"

Keith looked at the cupcake. "I'm 14." he mumbled, blinking hard as Clark got a bit loud with his joke. Keith smiled a bit so Clark could see it. He missed this boy, But Keith knew he couldn't be close with his friends anymore. Not with how he was, he'd only make them all feel bad.

Colin ran up from the grounds, his broom Vailerama still in hand. Flying practice had gone well. He had yet to name to the other broom, but it seemed to fly well enough for all it was a bit old. He was feeling really good about his plan to take Shia out flying at last. He reckoned that if one broom great, two brooms should be super awesomé! That practice would have to wait til later. Right now, there was a friend to meet!

Colin chose a stealthy approach this time. No laughter. No howling. Just bare feet silently loping along the familiar cobble stones of the courtyard. He had no idea where he was going. He just followed his nose and let his long legs do the running! He'd found it actually worked better this way. On account of he could pay better attention to the cute girls around! Colin smirked. So many cute girls!

As he rounded the corner, he heard them before he could see them. And there they were. He hadn't seen Clark in a while. Colin had wondered where he went. Probably Azkaban. And the other boy he'd seen around. What was his name? Jay something. John? Julian? Joseph? Colin shook his head. Best leave it at Jay!

"Yeep!"

Colin waited til the very last second before leaping up into the little nook where Keith was sitting. He scootched in between his friend and the wall. "Ayo Keith! What's with you today?" He gave the other boys a quick nod. "Where's Kim? Surprised he's not here yet! Anyway lad. Haven't seen you in the usual places!" Colin smirked. "Except for one..." Colin knew Keith would get the reference.

"Jes' hair, nuthin' special." Jay had to roll his eyes at the two boys in front of him, a lopsided grin gracing his face. "Yer fine, young'un. He's all yers." He murmured under his breath, through his teeth. Had he not done puppet shows with his brother every summer, that would be a difficult task. Thankfully, he had some stealth. Somewhat. Still couldn't manage to sneak up on anyone important, but that had the be the shoes fault. The click clack of re-used tap shoes. If anything, it was a good thing, because in sneakers, no one could hear him. Good for grumpy Jay, bad for overexcited Jay.

"Yeh, jes' ol' dormmates." Birthday? Gosh, he forgot that one. He didn't have anything on him, did he? The boy rummaged through his satchel with one hand while keep his eyes on the little crowd forming, searching blindly for something. A present to give the boy. Jay usually had to sorts of weird things in his bags and pockets, so it wasn't too-- He could throw his cat at Keith? No, let's not. Menace had her namesake for a reason. Keep the cat in the satchel. If he needed to escape, then he'd throw her. She liked Keith anyway, from what he remembered.

Now who was this? Jay gave a curt nod back, hand clasping around a book and throwing it next to Keith. He wasn't sure what book it was, but that public library wasn't getting it back. They never get back the books he borrows over the breaks. "Birthday gift. Lightly used. Kinda annotated. Enjoy, Worm." Kim. Names. Oh, no, did he need to remember names now? He didn't know anyone but Keith here, and now there was another one mentioned. This is what he gets for butting into a friend group. Lord save him.

The boy leaned against a wall, arms crossed over his chest, idling s he would just be forgotten. Those three, and a possible fourth, can chat. He'll slip away when he gets the chance. And hope and pray no one knew him before this meet up.

It was finally the last part of the semester at Hogwarts for Kim's fourth year. Soon, summer would come, and with it another chance to see his beloved again. Perhaps he'd even see him sooner than this, if he came for Hogwarts's spring ball, held like clockwork each year. Kim continued to wear Durmstrang's uniform at all times. The only exception being during classes, since it was a rule that was strictly enforced by staff that students were only allowed to wear their House robes in class. Despite the fact that Kim was a prankster, he did accept this rule.

Even Kim knew enough not to push certain things, since most other things were a little more lenient by nature. Once again dressed in his usual red Durmstrang outfit, complete with the black boots and flowing cloak outlined with soft white fur, Kim paused his watering of the plants in Greenhouse One. Why did he feel as if he was forgetting something important? He thought for a moment and then his eyes widened a little. Right. It was Keith's birthday today and Colin had been planning a surprise birthday party for him. A faint smile came to Kim's soft lips.

The duelist turned healer couldn't help but remember back in the past how he'd always been so proactive and conducting surprise parties for all his close friends. It was a shame he couldn't go back to the past again. Kibō came over to him and coiled around his left leg to slither up his body until he'd found his favorite spot, around his neck and upper shoulder. He hissed in his ear and Kim smiled. "Yes, I know. It's time." The parselmouth murmured to his friend and put away the hose. Kim took Kibō with him out of the place and headed back to all the dorms.

Since Kim had finally come out of his never-ending severe depressive stage, he'd been experimenting with food and sweets again. This time he'd outdone himself by creating a lovely chocolate masterpiece for Keith's birthday! It was a chocolate truffle layer cake and looked quite delicious. Just earlier this morning he'd put the last bits on his creation, the chocolate shavings on top of the cake. It was set on a large platter and he'd placed a dome covering to hide his creation from sight so it could be unveiled at once. Upon reaching the dorms, Kim picked up the gift.

He made his way out of the dorms and into the courtyard where Colin had said the surprise party would be gathering together. With Kim's shock of white hair and him being dressed in a Durmstrang uniform, specifically Valentin Schnell's actual uniform minus the cloak which was just a normal one, he really did look like a foreign student. If you didn't see his face, one might even assume he was the Niffler. Upon reaching his destination, Kim let his eyes flicker around the scene. It seemed as if everyone had already gotten there and was busy socializing.

Perfect. If that was the case, hopefully he wouldn't attract much attention. "Yo." Kim said, for the first time in ages using his trademark greeting that he'd always used to say to others. The first person he saw was Colin. Irish... Kim couldn't help but heave a sigh just thinking about his male best friend. Colin... did he still think he was a werewolf??? He did. Yes, he did. After all, it was Colin. Once he got something in his mind, he never got rid of it... But, whatever. If it made Colin happy to think Kim was a budding werewolf, why not let him think that for now?

There were two other boys there. One looked familiar and the other... right, he'd seen him around before. Specifically at ball events. He was the one always getting into trouble. Clark! Yes, that was his name. The familiar looking one was leaning up against the wall, looking as if he wanted to melt away and leave. Kim had to think for a little bit to recall who he was. Jake. No, wait. It was Jay. He hadn't really interacted much with him before but Kim vaguely remembered him from the past. Kim inclined his head to Jay once he caught his eye and moved forward.

Setting the circular domed platter down next to Keith, Kim took a seat down next to him, flicking his cloak out a little bit so he wouldn't be sitting on top of it. He didn't want the red cloak to get dirty, even though it was a simple spell to clean it should it get really dirty. "Happy Birthday. You can open it whenever you want to." The duelist murmured and glanced at the other three boys. Were they all just going to stay here? Or did Colin have an idea as to what to do for this surprise birthday celebration? Kibō regarded all of the boys with jewel-like eyes.

Keith looked as the two boys stared at each other. Keith felt his face get just the smallest amount warmer as Jay told Clark that Keith was was 'all yours'.

"well we arent- we um-" *I looked down at his cupcake and decided to let Clark handle that. How he wished at one point that he could be Clark's, though now he felt like no one should deserve him as a boyfriend. Though back then, He wouldn't have minded it. But that was a lifetime ago he felt, "you're too much for anyone, you're us-" Keith started to think before he got a book tossed at him. He caught it and looked it over.

"...thannnnkssss..." he said with his teeth not moving while he held an awkward smile. "you shouldn't haveee"

Keith couldn't see a cover and the book seemed kinda new so he put it in his satchel. He saw a familiar head of hair peep into the nook him and the other two boys were in.

"Colin" He muttered to himself as the boy went between him and the wall. "Apparently it's my birthday.. Time is weird" he responded as Colin looked around. "Kim? why would-" Keith looked around and glared slightly, as if he was trying to figure something out. "Did you guys plan something I didn't know about?" He said in a kind of defensive tone. He wasn't quite comfortable around a bunch of people yet.

The tired boy looked at his white haired friend, nodding a bit as he said something that hinted about their talks at the tree and seeing each other in the Shrieking Shack during full moons.

As he tried to talk to Colin he noticed Kim "and a snake? and... a Drumstrang uniform? What the hell?" Keith thought as Kim greeted everyone.

"Hey..." He mumbled to the now white haired boy. Keith was so glad when Kim sat down. Keith's legs hurt and he hated the awkward stance he was in currently. He carefully sat by Kim and mumbled, "You look a lot different," Of course Keith didn't mean it in a mean way, but the boy was in a whole different school uniform for Merlin's sake.

"ooo- thank you" Keith smiled as he opened the gift. Then he paused and looked at Colin, but decided to wait to ask his question.

Keith watched Clark again, watching the Hufflepuff he used to crush on.

"Damn, you're older than @Solomon Lear." Clark exclaimed before breaking down in laughter, only to clam up and contour his expressions back to grimness and despise. He saw the nasty dragon-dung smelling turd named Colin and shot him a look of anger and aggression.

He opened his mouth to retaliate to the boy who said Keith was all his. But he could not think of any words. Nothing would come out. He could think it, think about revolting and lashing against Jay, but he could not say anything. He saw the book being tossed and groaned. "The hell do you think you are? His name is not Worm, his name is KEITH. Now, you little Worm, stay away from him before I chuck this book at your head with the biggest look of cruel joy on my face." He threatened Jay.

He realized it came out. Words actually came out. All it took was a trigger word! Clark took off his pants, handing it to Jay. "Here. I want to apologize for what I said. I was being unruly, and you deserve better." He was at least wearing his underwear underneath. Clark was not intending to stay long, as he was going to go back to his dorm and change into pajamas to sleep, but he needed to wish someone important to him a happy birthday, and he did. Much more than the *worm* in front of him.

He smiled at the sight of Kim, but it was not a look of friendliness. It was a look of meanness. He felt like he looked like a serial killer with that look on his face.

Linda was planning to have another normal day. That was until she remembered that Keith had a birthday. She didn't spend a lot of time with Keith, but she also couldn't say she was a stranger. She still didn't have any clear idea what to gift, so she chose to simply bake some biscuits. Maybe some day in the future she would know what to gift, but for now biscuits will do.

Wrapping it with a handmade simple postcard, she changed her clothes and went out to search for Keith. She wasn't sure where to search when suddenly she heard someone talking. Voices and snake attracted her and she found some people, including Kim and Keith. Was that Colin? And someone else she didn't know. Pretty crowded, but she still needed to approach them. Linda wasn't going to just turn around and leave because there happened to be a lot of guys in that group. Happy Birthday, Keith!

Linda looked around and was too aware of the fact that she was the only girl surrounded by them. Quite unexpected, but what else could she expect? Certainly not finding a lot of girls. She greeted others and continued listening to what they all were talking about. Weren't they supposed to get somewhere for a surprise party for Keith? Now it seemed more like something else and she didn't quite understand it.
