Evangeline walked into the library feeling a wave of relief wash over her. For more than three years she had to pretend to be a completely different person. She had to change her name, wear a red curly wig, and wear dark green contacts. She even perfected the makeup routine to finish the transformation. Every day in the morning Evangeline would sneak out of her dorm just to put to put the finishing touches on her face and hair. That is until her father decided it would be best if she revealed her true self instead of lying to her friends. She also thought it to be funny that no one would recognize her. If you were to compare the two looks you wouldn't even think that these two people were related. Evangeline sat down at an empty table and started working on her homework. A couple of boys walked past her and stared. She was shocked but then remembered what she really looked like. When Evangeline had her disguise on boys wouldn't even take a second glance at her, but now she was getting stared at. Evangeline left those thoughts and started trying to work on her homework but couldn't understand it. Evangeline looked around the room and noticed someone sitting at the table not to far away so she asked "May you please help me with my potions homework?"

I walked into the library, which took forever to actually find with all those staircases moving around, and looked through the shelves for a book that looked familiar from my past, before Hogwarts. None, though, looked even close to what I would've liked to have read, I frown and pick up the closest book near me. I picked up an old wizards diary and started to read that. Not too long after, a girl walked in, I smiled at her, but I don't think she noticed. I watched for a moment, watching her trying to focus, I wondered what she was working on. A group of boys walk past her, and stared. I shook my head, ashamed that I had been doing the same thing, but they looked at her looks, I had just tried to figure out who she was and what she was struggling so much on. Which was stupid, since I didn't know her and was too far to see what she was working on. I went back to my book. After a couple minutes, I heard a sigh of frustration, then someone talking. My head slowly came up and looked at her again, my ginger hair got in front of my emerald green eyes, which I moved from my face. I look at her for a moment then stood up and walked over to her. I set down my book on the table and sit beside her. "What do you need help with?" I ask with a shy grin. I tug on my sleeve, hoping she won't notice the rip on it from earlier. Giving my attention back to her and away from my own problems, "I'm Aaron, by the way."

Evangeline looked at the red haired boy as he sat down. She smiled at him and said "I just can't focus today I have been way to uh busy." She didn't want sympathy from a boy she just met so she decided not to tell him about her letter or the slytherin boys who keep tormenting her every chance they got. But Evangeline knew that if they were going to be friends or more than that, that she would have to share some information. "By the way I think you have really pretty eyes." Evangeline blushed at her sudden choice of words. Evangeline was impressed with this boy for having such confidence. It takes a lot of strength to go up to help a stranger with their homework. She knew this boy was different from the others. "Um what's your name?" Evangeline thought she was coming on to strong and was confused by the way she was acting, she had never acted nervous around boys. She glanced around the library out of paranoia from her past experiences. Evangeline realized that she was staring at the boy with a stupid smile. "Oh um I just need a couple help for two problems if you would be willing." Evangeline showed off her smile once more as she asked this.

I gave her another smile, this one is to help her nerves, I laugh a little at how she stumbles over her words, and at her compliment, "Thanks, I really like your personality!" I smile again and ruffle my hair, a nervous habit I have, "my day's been er a little busy as well, and my name is Aaron, Aaron Flynn, first year, Ravenclaw," I look down at her paper and scan it over. "This used to stump me." I laugh thinking back. "But you'll get the hang of it, here, i'll help you with the first one, you just have to do this!" I scoot closer to her and slide the paper closer to me, grab her pencil, and I show her how to do it and I can feel her watching me, I sit up and look at her, and I blush noticing how close we are, but I pretend I don't notice, it would just be rude if I just scooted away from her. "Does it make any sense yet? I'm sorry if i'm boring you." I laugh trying to lighten to mood. "You know it's nice to know someone here seems to care about me. No one else here has bothered to have an actual conversation or ask me for help," I look at her with genuine smile, "Sorry, I just-I don't know, I guess I just wanted to say thanks." I fumble to search for the right words without sounding like an idiot. I ruffle my hair again, "I sound like an idoit.. er uh a-anyway, does this make sense at all?" I point back to the paper and hide my face behind my hair, so she can't see my eyes.

Evangeline smiled shyly as he moved closer. When he finished explaining the problems she wrote down the answers now knowing what to do. "Um thanks, that was really needed, i'm just really distracted today." Evangeline noticed she was kicking her feet under the table nervously so she abruptly stopped and blushed. "Oh by the way I have this anti-bullying club that is in need for new members. I was wondering if you would want to join?" Evangeline inwardly scolded herself for being so awkward. If she was being honest with herself this would be the first time in a long time she has felt this way. But the very first time broke her heart, since then she refused to have deep feelings for a guy if the guy didn't like her back. Evangeline took a deep breath and tried to calm her nerves and relocate her senses but she couldn't help thinking about him. "Good looking, nice, smart, do you think he plays quidditch?" All of these thoughts were coming at her all at once. When she finally snapped out of her trance she decided to make her move. "So thank you very much for helping me with my work, do you wanna hang out tonight at the lake?" Evangeline smiled nervously waiting for a response.

I sigh and set down the paper, as she scribbles down the answers. She seems to understand, at least a little more than before. I look it over, just to double check i'm not teaching her the wrong things. "Oh by the way I have this anti-bullying club that is in need for new members. I was wondering if you would want to join?" I look up from the paper, "I'm a little surprised that you need people for a club like that, I know a couple people being harassed." I sit up and put my arms behind my head. "I haven't joined any clubs yet, and it seems like that would be fun, especially since you're in it." Looking over a give her a smile. She's looking at me with an awe and quietly looking at me. I look at her in her deep, pool eyes. I look down and can feel myself blushing, "So thank you very much for helping me with my work, do you wanna hang out tonight at the lake?"I gather every spare bit of my courage and look back up, I blush again. I-is she asking me out? "I would love to hangout at the lake with you tonight." I grin "But shouldn't I be the one to ask you out? I could bring a little dinner. I-if you'd like." I give a little shrug. "Or we could just hang out at the lake." I can feel my confidence fading slightly, but looking at her, my face starts turning hot and my confidence replenishes. I ruffle my hair, a nervous habit I have, "If you want me to bring anything, just ask." I sit there ruffling my hair, and giving her a goofy grin.

Evangeline blushed when he said that he would like to join her club because SHE was in it. βThat is wonderful, if you know anyone who would like to join then just have them owl me saying that you recommend my club. I will also owl you and official invite to the meetings.β Then Evangeline listened as he answered her question about meeting at the lake. βHe said yes!β She thought, βhe really said yes!β Evangeline smiled wider when he said that he was the one supposed to ask her out and if he should bring dinner to which Evangeline responded βYes you can bring the dinner, I will reserve a spot for us at the lake underneath the name lakeside dinner. If thatβs um ok?β Evangeline felt like she was maybe coming on to strong and hoped he didnβt back out. But then again it really seemed like he has feelings for her and he really wants to support her cause. He also said that he should be the one asking her out and that he agreed to the βdateβ. She was delighted at the fact that he even helped her and now they were going on a date. βShould we make more plans? Should this be a casual date or a formal one. I have never really been out by the lake in the evening so I have no idea what it would be like.β Evangeline flustered when she finished her sentence. She had called it a date. She really hoped he thought the same way.

She beams at me, which only makes me feel more nervous and happy at the same time. I hate feeling like this, it's all confusing. But I have to remember, so many things could go wrong, so I shouldn't put my heart way up there. Yet. "Ok, I'll do my best! I'm not the best though with talking." I ruffle my hair, a nervous habit, and put my hands behind my head again in a comfortable position as I listen to her. βYes you can bring the dinner, I will reserve a spot for us at the lake underneath the name lakeside dinner. If thatβs um ok?" She's so cute when she's nervous like this. "Why wouldn't it be?" I give her a small smile, to try and help her out a bit.
As she talks about the date tonight, he listens and grins. Her voice is soothing and sweet. It makes my heart jump when I hear her. He smiles and laughs a little when she's finished, "Don't worry, any spot you pick will be perfect, I'll see you around 6 ish? This could be a formal if you'd like, I'm thinking of making something Italian to go with it if it's formal." He continues talking a little about his plan, he stops abruptly. "Sorry, I didn't mean to override the conversation" he says sheepishly, and looks back at you, putting his hand in his lap in a shy way. "I guess it's just exciting." That was so awkward! I'm usually not like this. Gotta get a grip. "It's been a week or so since I've cooked last." Looking back at her I wait for some response that she's not irritated about me talking so much. I shut my mouth.
