〈 CLOCK TOWER COURTYARD 〉

@( s ) sooyeon "Still being a child inside~" he said softly while smiling softly too "I've been good and studying for the OWLs and taking care of my injuries in the quidditch game" he laiughed then he nodded his head "Nae, Bora and I got together so I am really happy about it" he said starting to smile goofily. "So right now you have free time or not?" he asked curiously.

@( s ) minho "But you're still a child on the inside right?" she said with a laugh befe taking a seat to her old friend. "I've been good, busy. What about you? How have you been Minho?" she asked, turning towards him with a grin on her face. "I've heard around that you got a girl~"

@( s ) sooyeon "You were the only one who put her tiny hands on my eyes and said Boo to me" he chuckled then bit her finger like when they were little "I grew up soo~ physically" he chuckled smiling softly. "You are a midget, a cute midget" he laughed a little patting the seat next to him "take a seat, so tell me how have you been since the last time we saw each other?" he asked curious and smiling brightly.

@( s ) minho Sooyeon laughed heartily and hugged back the male who was almost double her size. "Minho, Minho! How did you know it was me?" she said with a cheeky grin, reaching up to poke his pout as she used to when they were children. "My, you're so tall now... I seriously feel like a midget now, even shorter than an owl." she commented.

@( s ) sooyeon Minho felt a prescence bhind me but as soon as his eyes were covered he placed the book on the side and chuckled "you have not changed at all sosoyeon~" he said taking away the hands and looking at his friend before giving her a huge hug "I've missed you so much SOO!!!" he said huggging her tightly "literally no letters all these years" he pouted cutely and then laughed a little "so how are you now? you grew up being really beautiful" he said smiling cheekily being the full charismatic guy that he had always been.

@( s ) minho Sooyeon strolled in the courtyard eloquently, wanting to get away from the hoards of people present in the school in order to get rid of the excess amounts of stress. She sighed lightly and shifted her gaze towards the famous pear tree, one of her favorite places to read. She checked her watch thinking that she had prefect duty, but in fact she didn't It had just become a habit of hers. Sooyeon shrugged to nothing in particular. Suddenly her lifeless eyes landed upon a familiar figure. "Minho.." she muttered with a smile curving upon her lips. Quietly, she snuck up behind the bench he was sitting on. It had been literally years since the two friends had talked. She sneakily covered his eyes and said, "Boo."

@( s ) sooyeon Minho was sitting there reading a book patiently as he waited for his next class to start. The day was really beautiful to be outside he was waiting for his girlfriend bora abut he was eager if he could encountered his childhood friend since he missed her a lot and have not seen her in a few years since she had not contacted him yet. He was inside his own thoughts with the book on his hands.

@( r ) kyungsoo Baekhyun was aware of the other presence apart for his by the pear tree, yet he chose to act as though he had not noticed any movement. He kept his eyes closed, as he constantly tries to will himself to sleep. But when he was about to drift off into a good nap, was when he felt a tip of a want poking into his head. Opening an eye, he was greeted by a familiar male – Kyungsoo, he vividly remembers his name, as they had always been seatmates in Defense Against the Dark Arts ever since the school year has started. He gave him a lopsided grin – his trademark sly grin – as he rested the back of his hand in his forehead. He was not surprised to hear the other male speak the way he did – he was indeed a head boy of Ravenclaw, as far as Baekhyun remembers. Slowly, he sat up, settling Osiris into his lap as he did so.

He ran a hand through his blonde locks. “I doubt my parents know nothing of how I do /well/ in school,” he wrinkles his nose, watching as the Ravenclaw ran his thumb over his cat’s fur. Sure, knowing Baekhyun’s parents and their influence, they had probably been well told of his behavior. He would not be surprised if the next thing he knows, he gets scolded yet again. These days, he could just care less anyway; his parent’s scolding always had to include him being compared to his brother. His brother this, his brother that – who likes to be compared? No one. “And are you done with your classes?” he asks the other, both his eyes opened this time.

@( s ) baekhyun Entering the courtyard from the long journey across the covered bridge, Kyungsoo let his blue lined robe fly gently behind him through the glide of the mild wind as he huffed out little smokes of breath under the cold air that was slowly gathering around the Hogwarts campus, stumbling his way towards the pear tree that he saw only as a place for temporary rest before flopping down with a low grunt. He had never been an athletic person, and having to chase ( unsuccessfully ) a few first years all over the castle because of them tricking a few poor old ghosts as per instruction from the caretakers for the past half hour had him feeling half dead, and as he rolled around with frustrated moans and grunts, the male did not notice that the pear tree was already occupied until he vaguely heard quiet sounds of purrs, resembling that of a cats and he immediately sat back up, dusting off the dirt that had collected on his robe from going into absolutely horrendous places in order to catch the running kids in record time out of slight embarrassment, if anything, this was not how the head boy of Ravenclaw should be presented in front of others, especially not with his hair sticking out in all angles and degrees, looking like he had just crawled out of bed.

With further inspection, he realized that the boy lying beside the pear tree was more than familiar, and as a small smile appeared on his face, he instantly recognized the Slytherin male as Byun Baekhyun, his seatmate in Defence Against the Dark Arts. Gently poking the crown of the other's head with the tip of his wand, Kyungsoo managed a small chuckle. "Slacking off class I see," Clicking his tongue lightly, the male reached down and ran his thumb over the soft fur of the cat, Osiris he believed before settling down beside his seatmate with a slight disapproving frown. "I'm feeling generous today so let's pretend I never saw this, can't say the same for your parents though."

By the courtyard was one of Baekhyun’s favorite places in the castle. If there was anywhere he’d like to simply slack off and take a nap at, it would be by the pear tree growing in the courtyard, somewhere he wouldn’t be easily found by the caretaker walking around, trying to spot a tardy witch or wizard to punish. It was his time for History of Magic, yet here he was, slacking instead of attending his class. After all, History of magic was not really the best subject in his history in Hogwarts. Boring, if you ask him. And he wouldn’t even dare to say that aloud if he plans to keep his sanity alongside him as he lives.

A black Siberian cat was settled in his stomach as he laid on his back, a hand behind his head, while he ran a hand over the cat’s fur. It was his cat, Osiris—named after the Egyptian god of the Underworld. As a young wizard, Baekhyun fancied the myths and ancient beliefs of the other muggles, and so he named his pet after that mythical god of Egypt. On the other hand, the owl owned by the Byuns was actually named Iris, the goddess of rainbow and messages. Quite weird, really, for the Byuns to naturally have this interest with such myths.

His lips pressed into a thin line, he closed his eyes, wanting to try and get a good sleep.
