Yet another day gone, well alomst that it. In a few hours it would be Saturday and everyone would be sleeping off their long week. Even this pleasent night, something seemed wrong. Though the pretty girl wandering down to the Black Lake couldn't put a fair finger on what the disturbance was. The night was warm, which wasn't normal in the late Autumun. Even this didn't help Kennedy Simmons figure out what was wrong with this seemlingly perfect night.
Her hair catching softly in the warm air as she procedded to the empty boat house. Stopping at the top of the stairs that led to her destination, she glanced over her shoulder. Nothing. "Relax, Kennedy. Your overreacting." she muttered to herself, taking a deep breath. A run in with a group of Death Eaters earlier that day had her on alert. Her mind kept going back to that every time she turned a corner. Seagan, her older sister, had warned her not to think about it too much. Her sister knew her too well. Once she thought about something to much, she began to think something bad would happen just about any second.
Sighing, the girl took the first step down the vast flight of stairs. After a while she began to wonder if she would meet anyone out in the boat house on that very night. Someone who needed time to think things over just the way she needed to? The boat house always served as her heaven for calm thoguhts. SHe almost always went to the small place alone, but on the off chance that her sister wasn't attached to some guy's face and could join her, she came. That was often though.
Soon after starting the journey down the millions of broken steps, Kennedy arrived at the landing of the Boat HOuse. She laughed softly at how peaceful she felt when a DE might be lurking right inside the building ready to kill her. Shrugging the thought away, she walked right in, taking her normal spot on the right side of the shack. Her little spot, worn down a bit after years of her sitting there, sat between two pillars on the wall and over the water. No ledge protected her from falling into the water. Trust me, it had happened before. You have to be wise when picking a comfortable spot aboue the water. Kennedy closed her eyes, taking deeps breaths of the satly air to calm her nerves.

Not that Aiden had actual plans. Mostly a lapsid-daisy thinking of where he was going and why. At this particular moment his feet lead him the boat house. Ominous in the dark scenery. A towel draped over his should, assumable that he was out for a late night swim. His specialty made wand was at a ready in his pocket, for if he needed it the stick would be at close range. Not that the depths of the lake would even try and touch him. Aiden became a regular, usually slipping out of the feasts to emerge himself in the murky water.
Today was strange, compared to the normal silence he watched as a Ravenclaw mumbled to herself, doing the same as he did; stare at the open water in longing. At times he thought about drowning. It couldn't hurt that much and he'd finally be with something he understood. Something he didn't have to pick apart till it fled. "Uh, what are you doing here?" Blinking twice he rethought his approach but found it to the point and, well who cares if it was rude.

Thinking she was totally alone, Kennedy let her mind wander. The main subject of her thoughts were the bad boys of the school. Scorpius, Rowen, and Aiden. Now, there were a few boys that had taken to disliking blondes for some odd reason, those she ruled out of her mind. It was an odd thing for Kennedy to not constrict her thoughts. She didn't like to let her mind wander around. Most of the time thoughts of her long dead mother popped up. Her father told her she looked exactly like her. It made Kennedy happy to think she could be the bright memory of her mother.
Hearing something walk into the building, Kennedy jumped, quickly grabbing one of the pillars for support. Luckily, she didn't jump too much and didn't tumble down into the murky water below. She lifted her wand, which had found its way in her hand. "Lumos." she whispered, light spilling down on the Slytherin boy. "Y'know, thats not a polite way to begin a conversation. Anyways, I am thinking. Thats what I do when I come out here. Think." she said, pocketing her wand shortly after banishing the lighting spell. She laughed, looking down at the boy. "What are you doing out here?"

[Aiden Gabriel Irvine]

Aiden sighed, a sound that completed his relaxed monotone. "Swimming." Shaking the towel in emphasize he began to undress starting with his shirt. From underneath the fabric his skin peaked through a tan complexion overall. A blink or two later he tied his shorts tighter making sure from the impact of the waves they wouldn't fly off. Aiden dove allowing his senses to kick in the water waking him up a bit. In a pulsing beat he kicked arms moving in sequence, toward the center of the lake. He stopped gasping for breath allowing a smile to shine through his icy expressions. "C'mon scared the mermaids are going to eat you?" Producing a grin him dunked his head a cool wave of relief from the constant stress of school.
