Back at last.

Dree was back at the lake. Finally. She hadn't been here in ages, and truth be told, she missed it a lot more than she thought she would. It was only a lake right? Or maybe it was the memories.. Terry falling out of that tree. Meetin Kiki and Ivan. She was still mad at her bratty cousin for making her miss the end of last year.. Sure, it might not be all his fault, but it still was in part. She just hoped he wasn't a Raven.

Dree took her spot inder her favorite tree and opened up her book. She was reading a muggle book now, called 'Geektastic' Liam got it for her for her 12 birthday over the summer. She was just getting to the climax of one of the short stories when she heard footsteps approching. She looked up and smiledat the newcomer. "Hey"

Ainslee was walking by the lake, smiling at how beautiful it was here. The water was beautiful and there were so many trees. It was a place so different from what Ainslee was used to. She liked it here, but it was a huge adjustment.

Noticing a redhead sitting down reading a book, Ainslee grinned. Ainslee wanted to meet more people since she was a first year. It was a new place and a new world for Ainslee. Ainslee, being a Muggleborn, had never even heard of magic. Her life was all about acting.

The girl looked up and said hello, because she probably heard Ainslee approach. "Hello," Ainslee replied, grinning. "I'm Ainslee James." She said, introducing herself.

Kyra walked further and further down by the lake. Her day wasn't going too well. She'd gotten an owl from her mum saying that she and Kyra's dad were getting a divorce as soon as the summer started; for now they were separated.

She saw Dree and another girl; Dree reading, and the other girl most likely saying hi. "DREE! PERSON I DON'T KNOW!" she called, running toward the pair. "How're you guys doing?" She was trying her best to smile without letting them know of anything. Hopefully she was doing it well.

Wow, Hogwarts really had done something for interhouse unity, Louis decided, as he spotted three girls by the lake.

Well, more accurately, two girls and Kyra Henderson running toward them. But who really cared about the specifics?

It was Dree, a fellow Ravenclaw, Kyra, a Hufflepuff, and another girl that Louis didn't know- though he was pretty sure she was a Gryffindor.

They were there, and he was bored, so he walked up to them.
"Hey Dree, Kyra," and he simply nodded at the other girl whose name he didn't know. "What are you ladies up to?"

And that was that.

Lachlan was walking down by the lake, Lion following her like always. He was getting better at staying in her dorm, but he still like to be with her. It was adorable in an annoying sort of way. But, Lachlan didn't expect anything less from her German Shepherd.

Noticing a group of people down lake, and noticing how Lion wasn't seeming threatened by them, Lachlan walked toward them. "Hi everyone!" Lachlan exclaimed smiling. Lachlan recognized Kyra from the common room. Everyone she didn't know.

Dree put her book down "Swarm of people much?" She grinned. "Hi. I'm Dree" She said to the two unfamiliar girls. and then gave Kiki a hug. "It's been ages Kiki" She grinned and then decided to give Louis a hug too. "Heya Housemate" she grinned after giving him a quick hug.

She looked around at all the people. "So everyone. Lets all be cool and sit on the ground like me" She motioned to the ground around her.

He hugged her after a split second's confusion. Then he made a decision very quickly.

After all, throwing people into lakes was a bit of a specialty of his...

So the second that Dree said 'So everyone. Let's all be cool and sit on the ground like me,' he did something that could possibly put him at the other end of her firing wand. But he did it anyway.

"You know where else it's cool?" he asked casually, and then he reached down and picked her up. "In the lake."

And he tossed her in- lightly, of course. Getting hurt wasn't exactly his intention, just wet.

"You know where else it's cool?" She looked up at Louis. Who wasn't sitting. He sounded slightly.. Mischievous? Then, he picked her up "In the lake" Oh merlin. she knew where this was going.

And then she was in the lake.

Her head poped up out of the water. "LOUIS!!!!!!" She screamed "I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!!!!" She managed to swim towards the shore without drowning (Seeing as she wasn't the best at swimming)..

After climbing out she stalked over to Louis. She grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the lake, and of course shoved him in. "Bam"
