The Three Broomsticks Chat

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby ran into Hogsmeade and leaned besides a wall with a smirk on her face. She looked around for Kira and Ryan but she had sped to fast for them. "Ha". She said aloud with a cheerfull smile.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Well, I knew I'd loose this one." Ryan said as he entered, and searched for a table the three of them could sit at.

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby laughed. "Yep...And I won." She replied with a cheeky smile. She looked at the waiter and nodded. It was a waiter that she knew. She watched Ryan find a table and shook her head. She was in a way better mood than ealier and yesterday.

[Kira Rose]

" Da- I mean...wow I lost." she said with a smile leaning against the doorframe. "Not my best.." she said shaking her head with a grin.

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby shrugged. "What can I say? She replied with another cheeky smile. She walked towards the counter and started talking to the waiter about something important.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Yeah, what happened? Last time we raced you beat me by a mile." Ryan said, laughing. He watched the girls for a moment before asking, "So what do you want? And no firewhisky for either of you," he said with a grin.

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby carried on talking to the waiter. She gave him nine sickles and twleve knuts. He gave a nod to Ruby and walked away for awhile. Ruby looked at Ryan. "What?" She asked with an inersent smile.

[Kira Rose]

"Aww." she joked walking further in and letting the door close behind her. "That's exactally what I was craving this morning." she said with a laugh. "Im sure they wouldn't even let us buy from them anyway." she said sitting down at a table. "Butterbeer is fine with me."

[Ryan Redmond]

"Nothing." Ryan said, eyeing Ruby. "What about one of them soda's with cherry syrup for the alkie?" he said with a laugh towards Kira.

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby laughed. "Fine I'll have rum." She joked to Ryan with her arms folded. She watched as the waiter gave her a pacage to her and put it in her bag. She nodded to the waiter again and watched as he walked out. "Rum...The best man drink around." She said as she looked back at the door.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Kay, I'll be right back. One rum, any kind?" Ryan asked Ruby. "What about Malibu? Its coconut and yummy. And a butterbeer for the boring one?" He asked Kira.

[Kira Rose]

Kira laughed to Ryan. "It's just a drink... not the O.W.L. exams." she said setting an elbow on the table and watched Ruby order her rum. "I thought you learned your lesson." she teased with a laugh.

[Ruby Rebel]

Ruby looked out the door. "I'll be back later." She told Ryan and Kira as she rushed out the door. The door swung and hit her on the head. "D**m door" She said as she made sure it didn't hit her.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Er, okay, bye." Ryan said, peering at Ruby. He hoped she was okay after the loss of her father. He stood up to go to the bar to get the drinks. Returning shortly, he carried a bottle of butterbeer, along with a glass and some ice, and a smaller glass that was filled with a yellow liquid with a pineapple slice on the rim. "Here." He said simply, sitting down.

[Kira Rose]

Kira stood up and looked towards to the door to make sure she was ok. "Uh, ok... see ya later." she called after her. She sat back down and took her drink. "I wonder what that was about." she said aloud sounding kinda worried.

[Ryan Redmond]

"She's been upset latley. Did she tell you?" Ryan asked Kira, not sure if he should tell her because it wasn't his business, but then decided that she would find out anyway. "Her father past away." He said quietly. Ryan stared at the wall where there was a bright patch of sun being let in from a nearby window. He took a sip of his drink, one he had gotten in honor of Ruby, but it didn't matter now that she had gone.

[Kira Rose]

"No..." she replied slowly after he asked, shaking her head slightly. Kira put her hand to her mouth. She took it down "Seriously?....when?" she asked looking out the window to see if she could find Ruby. Without success she looked back to Ryan. "The same father that Ruby was joking about a couple days ago?" she asked remembering the black owl.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Yesterday. Or maybe this morning, I'm not sure. I knew she was upset yesterday. I think he had cancer maybe." Ryan said quietly. "But when I asked her about it she seemed odd, but fine. She told me, and then wanted me to chase her around. I thought it was a bit odd though. She seemed so sad one second cheerfull the next."

((brb))

[Kira Rose]

ooc: Ok

"Oh..." she said quietly looking down at her drink. Kira nodded. "Some people just react to death different ways." she said remembering crying over her cat that got hit by a car for a long time. She was over it now but back then when she was younger she thought it was the worst thing in the world.

[Ryan Redmond]

"I guess. I just hope she's okay, you know?" Ryan said after sitting in silence for a while. He sipped at his drink, a Malibu and pineapple juice, and thought about Ruby. "It just makes you think about how short life can be."

[Kira Rose]

"Yeah..." she said running her finger around the rim of her mug. "Nothing should be over looked." she said continuing to look down at the butterbeer.

[Ryan Redmond]

Ryan thought about Kira's last comment. "So," he began, thinking about what she had said. "How are things with Josh?" He ate the pineapple off the rim and finished the small glass.

((sorry, I had to. It was a perfect opening. and sorry for takin forever))

[Kira Rose]

Kira looked up. "Pretty well, I havn't seen him a lot lately though." she replied with a shrug. She took a drink of her butterbeer and set it down. She paused and looked out the window towards the castle. "I have a bad feeling about something." she said trying to ignore her nagging instinct. (refering to Ruby's post)

ooc: Oh, thats ok

[Ryan Redmond]

"About what?" Ryan asked her intently. He was confused about Ruby's behavior, but found that girls sometimes did odd things he didn't always understand. "Want to go find her?" he asked.

[Kira Rose]

"I don't know exactally... Im not a seer or anything... at least I don't think I am." she paused letting out a small laugh and shook the thought away. "But something just seems a bit weird." She nodded. "I really think we should." she said sliding out of the chair and standing up.

[Ryan Redmond]

"Okay. Hey, feminine intuitition, I'm with that." Ryan said, standing up next to Kira. He pushed both of their chairs in and headed towards the door. "Where do you think she'd be?" he asked.

[Kira Rose]

Kira nodded and took a last sip of butterbeer. Setting it down she followed slightly behind. "Im not sure exactally, down in the castle I'm sure." she replied.

ooc: Im not sure how we should do this... head straight to the Empty Corridor?

[Ryan Redmond]

((gotta go- check your pms on RPC ttyl))

[Kira Rose]

ooc:Ok, see ya later.
