Storm felt relieved as she stepped out from behind the green house, she had found that none had gone there, and would seek the solace of blissful silence inside the confines of the murky room, the plants she knew to stay away from glaring at her, scrutinizing her every step as she walked around. She watched as student coming from the lake ran straight towards the school not realizing that someone could in fact listen to their every word. When the sounds had dissolved away she walked outside, glad that the stinging scent of the extracted ingredients would no long bother her. She brushed dirt from her robes and pulled out a note book laying down on her stomach as her emotions ran from the ink of the quill to the parchment staring innocently up at her glare.

Blake was craving someones company, he hated having to be alone. Whilst everyone was inside, he felt attracted to the grounds of Hogwarts. He looked towards the greenhouse, walking slowly towards it, he saw a girl lying down on the ground, clearly in her own world. To him she was very cute and immediately felt the need to talk to her. "What is someone like you doing outside?" he asked her crouching down as he watched her write.

Storm dropped her quill at the sudden voice. She wasn't expecting anyone to be outside and was mentally cursing herself for not being on her guard. Her first instinct was to curse the guy in every way possible. Looking up she was startled by the proximity of him. She stuttered on her words and blushed at her own surprise, she wasn't expecting them to be this close.
"I..I...why does it matter to you?" her voice rose as she stood up picking up her stuff as she looked down at his crouching form.

Her reaction made him chuckle. He stood up to his full 6'7 height pulling along her notebook which he handed to her. "It's not right to be alone outside this late, escpecially someone like you." Blake stepped back his eye holding curiosity behind them.

The red tinge in her cheeks had grown larger, she felt so small and insignificant at that moment. She looked up at him, slightly annoyed that he was much taller than her. Her eyes narrowed at his last comment and she glared.
"Someone like me? What's that supposed to mean?" she wasn't offended, but instead felt breakable and vulnerable.

He shook his head, she was entertaining him and he offered her his arm, he wanted her to walk with him. "There are things out here, to them you are quite fragile, it wouldn't be a great outcome on your behalf if you were to be attacked by a creature, the Green house is close to the forest." he had come to see girls hurt buy things far greater than then and he felt that these things were avoidable. "For instance how do you know that I'm not some sort of sadistic Death Eater out to hunt girls?" he asked her.

Storm was never to refuse someones arm, unless they were not purebloods, but to her blood status didn't matter to her anymore. She took his arm her brows furrowed as she answered his question.
"I would take my wand and stick it in the most unpleasant place possible." she knew that she couldn't be able to do this, but the thought was highly amusing making her smile.
"And besides no Death Eater would attack me, they know who my parents are, I am the daughter of two Death Eater... unfortunately." she growled the last word as she looked back up to him.

He nodded as he walked around with her understandin her situation. Being the son of a Death Eater had his fate set in stone. "I already feel sorry for the fool who attacks, it would be un pleasent to have something protruding form those places." he laughed stopping to look at her. "You have beautiful eyes." he complimented.

Storm blushed at his comment. Her heart fluttered as she had never been complimented, not even by Chase. 'Chase' she thought biting her lips, she felt the heat in her cheeks instantly leave and her brows furrowed. Her body went rigid as she knew that was a lost cause, it was hopeless. She looked back up recomposing her expression.
"So why is it that I've never seen you around here?" she was trying her best to forget about Chase and openly talk with someone else.

The frown that creased her brows had made Blake confused, he was sure he didn't say anything wrong and instead continued on with their conversation as he started to walk again. "I just transfered here, the castle is quite a beauty, far grander than Durmstrang." he paused and a smilke appeared on his face. "I apologize greatly for not saying this before, but I haven't gotten your name." he tippe dhis head in a small bow grinning.

She grinned back, she was completely entranced by the way he acted, like a gentleman. She extended her hand introducing herself.
"Storm, pleasure to meet you..." she paused not sure what his name was.

"Blake." he said taking her hand and kissing it. He asked casually. "Who was it that named you?" the name Storm in itself wasn't something anyone named their child.

Storm blushed, she was mentally cursing herself, she was probably tomato red in the face. Storm was slightly confused, most pureblood boys did that, but only when parents were present as an act of respect, but Blake did it at his own will. She looked away to hide her embarrassment as her face deepened in color. The question he asked caught her off guard, no one had ever asked about her name.
"I changed my name at 14, my parents couldn't do anything about it, my real name is Lucretia, I was named after my great aunt, she was so vile." she grimaced at the memories biting back a groan that wanted to escape her lips.
"My parents are so old fashioned, they love 18th and 19th century names."she rolled her eyes at this, not admitting that she loved her real name, but changed it in an act of rebellion.

"Lucretia is a lovely name, would you mind if I used it?" he asked her, the name Storm to him didn't match her, he prefered the softer name. "Do you mind me asking, but I'm new here, and I would like to see more places here, could you please show me around?" he hoped he wasn't asking her much, he was trying to find more way to spend time with her, she intrigued him.

She shook her head she wouldn't mind, oddly the way he said her name was so different, it sounded nice, and she would love to hear him say it again. "No I don't mind, you may call me that." she smiled and looked away, all thoughts of Chase had erased, she felt like she could move on. She smiled and nodded her head. "Showing you around Hogwarts will be fun, how about tonight? I can take you to Hogsmead, it's where most of the good stuff is." she didn't want there time to end, and wanted to get to know him better.
