"Oh okay," he turned back to the Goblin. "I don't think I will be needing a vault today, I already have a bank account." The Goblin took the money from Jayson, weighed it and handed of the wizard money. "Thank you for this, Griphook." said Jayson to the Goblin. He turned back to Mariana. "Where would you like to go now?" he asked. OOC:// Hahaha. Love the ice cream reference

"Well, I kind of want some ice cream. There is a place down the street from here, I forgot the name of it though." Mariana said, blushing slightly.
She eyed the stack of money in Jayson's hand. She nodded. The pile looked perfect.

"Judging by your staring, I would say that I have a lot of wizard money?" He laughed. "Let's get some ice cream. My shout. Pay back for the drinks. You lead the way." He smiled at her.

Mariana didn't want him to pay her back for the drinks, but she didn't dare insult him. She didn't want him to be angry or upset.
Mariana started walking down the stone path toward the ice cream shop, she could not remember the name of. Before they got half way there, a girl came running up to the two of them. It was one of Mariana's friends from school.
"Mar, I called your...who's that?" The girl asked eyeing Jayson.

Jayson looked up at the sound of a new voice.
"I'm Jayson, pleased to meet you." he said, offering his hand to shake.

The girl shook her head. Mariana looked at her. She moved closer to the girl and whispered, "Don't act like that around my future boyfriend."
She might have said it loud enough to where Jayson heard her, but she couldn't have been sure. The girl that approached them, stalked off.
Mariana moved by Jayson. "I'm very sorry for her reaction. She has a bit of a temper sometimes."

"Did you say something about the future? What was she going to say?" asked Jayson. He felt as if it was his fault that the girl had stalked off. Perhaps she sensed that he wanted to be alone with Mariana and decided to move on. He saw the girl walk into a shop.
"Was it me she was avoiding?" asked Jayson.

"Not particularly. She gets...jealous...when I have a guy hanging out around me. She's loony. And, you heard what I said about the future?" Mariana blushed and dropped her head. She didn't know how she felt about him knowing that he was in her future.

"No, I just heard the word future. Did it involve me? By that blush I guess it did." he stuck his tongue out in a joking gesture to her. "Why does she become jealous?" He glanced up at the girl in the shop window. She was staring them. She was too far away to know if the stare was of intrigue or hatred. He started to walk back up the street towards the ice cream shop.

Mariana sighed. It was never any good trying to avoid this situation, especially with her being a seer. "Yes, the future involves you. Ally, she gets jealous because she thinks she's prettier than me, better than me."

"Well, I don't see anything pretty in her expression at the moment." laughed Jayson. "Although I am intrigued about the future which involves me, I still don't want to know it. It would ruin the suprise! And, if it was a good thing, I would force it to happen and it could end badly and not turn out good after all."

Mariana mumbled. "That's what always happens when I have a boyfriend and I see us breaking up."
They arrived at the ice cream shop, and sat down. Mariana didn't want to worry much about anything, but her new companion.

"What would you like?" asked Jayson. "I will go and order it."
He stared at Mariana. She seemed upset, or distracted. He didn't know. Maybe some ice cream will make her feel better...

"Oh...uh...cookies and cream!" Mariana smiled up at him. She wanted to go with him, but that might have caused an attachment issue. Mariana looked at him with soft, kind eyes.
She wanted to know more about him. He was always asking questions about her, but then again if you just found out you were a wizard, you'd be in just about as much shock as Jayson was. Mariana couldn't imagine her life without magic.

"Cookies and cream it is." Jayson returned her smile and walked up to the counter.
The man behind the counter turned to him. "Hello, I am Florean Fortescue! I will be your ice cream maker today, what can I get you?" he said cheerfully.
"Hi Florean, I will have a cookies and cream and a cookie dough ice cream please, three scoops." said Jayson.
"Not a problem, not a problem! Take a seat and I will have it there in a jiffy!"
Jayson walked back to the table. He was about to ask Mariana more questions about Hogwarts, but the ice creams appeared on the table from no where. "Whoa!" exclaimed Jayson. "Is that service or what?"
He started to eat his ice cream, watching Mariana. "You know you're beautiful, don't you?" he asked. He blushed slightly at how random it was for him to say something like that.

Mariana had begun to put her first spoonful of ice cream in her mouth when she heard Jayson. You know you're beautiful, don't you? She immediately dropped the spoon on her nice pink sweater and black dress pants. She wasn't expecting a compliment.
"I guess I do now," Mariana responded smiling and blushing.

Jayson blushed. "Even with the ice cream on your clothes, you are still." he laughed.
He continued eating his ice cream. He never had cookie dough ice cream that tasted this good. "This ice cream is better than anything I've ever tasted."

Mariana pulled out her wand and waved it. The ice cream was gone in an instant. She conjured another spoon to eat her ice cream with.
"Thank you, by the way. For the ice cream and the compliment. Fortescue always makes the best ice cream. I love it. I normally conjure up my own toppings, however this seems to be perfect today. Like us sitting here together."

Jayson stared at Mariana. He couldn't have heard that right. Not at all. There was no way. He realized after a moments hesitation that she performed magic in front of him. "Won't you get in trouble for doing that? I want a wand." he said. OOC:// Maria, I know your lurking! LOL. Also, Lil, should I change his age? He seems older then 11. But then, this whole thread would be wrong wouldn't it? I dunno. *brain dead*

ooc:// I have a plan for that. Mariana looked at him a giggled. "I'm of age to use magic outside of school, and there aren't muggles around. You see it all around you really. Did you bring your list of stuff for school?" It was only a week before she returned to school. She wanted to go ahead and get her school stuff and go. Mariana was what most people called a "nerd". She hated it, but she didn't really care anymore. Especially if she could find someone that liked her for her.

"Yeah I have my list right here," said Jayson, patting his jacket pocket. "I can't wait to actually read the books. It will probably tell me a lot. There is still a week to school, so I expect I will get through it all. Sorry, you probably think I'm a nerd now." He hung his head, as if to say he was ashamed. He was in no way ashamed, she seemed to like him for being himself.
OOC:// Ooo good! Because I was getting worried with her being 16 and all... lol

"A nerd? Really? I see this as the beginning of a beautiful relationship." Mariana smiled brightly at him. ooc://I'm evil. Its a short post on purpose.

"Do you read a lot as well?" asked Jayson, stunned that she wasn't ashamed of his bookworm behaviors. "I can see that we will get along like a house on fire."

"Of course I read a lot. Its just, it took me by surprise. I'm normally the one with my head in a book or in my journal. At the school, there is a lake, the Black Lake, and I go to sit by it on nice days to get away from it all. Mostly, to read or write, but it is fun watching the Giant Squid. You'll love it at Hogwarts. A good book to get, to know about Hogwarts a little more, is Hogwarts: A History. It tells you all about the founders, ghosts, and everything. Plus, its a wonderful read, if I do say so myself. Come to think of it, the books could be why you seem so much older than just eleven."
Mariana decided that it was time to stop rambling on about stuff. She felt a hint of heat rushing to her cheeks.

"I'm usually the one at home with their head in books! I will probably spend a lot of time at the lake too if it is quiet. Is there a library at Hogwarts? A giant squid!" Jayson's mouth dropped. He had only just registered that she mentioned this. "It doesn't ink anyone does it? And is it larger than normal squids?" He began to feel terrified of this. He wondered whether it was all a dream.
"Hogwarts: A History? I will have to look for it when I get my books. I will probably learn a lot from that." said Jayson. "You've gone all flushed, are you sure your okay?"
He was worried. First visions, now she was showing signs of a possible fever. He reached out to touch her forehead. It was indeed a little warmer than it should normally be.

Mariana froze under the touch of Jayson's hand. It felt a little chill, but at the same time nice. Mariana leaned a little closer to her hand.
Bloody hell, woman! What are you thinking? He's a first year. You're a seventh year! Oh, but he's so adorable. So, like me. It would be great to have a guy like that..."

Jayson moved his hand away. "You're very warm. Perhaps you should go home to rest? I think I will be okay to finish my shopping alone. You could write to me if you like. Or use the telephone?" asked Jayson. He was hoping she would say telephone would be fine, but then he didn't know if the magical world communicated with telephones.

Post by Kayla B. --//> *Mariana on Apr 1, 2009 9:12:23 GMT -5
"Well, I'm sure you don't have an owl. So, the telephone would be alright. My family likes to live as muggles from time to time." Mariana said.
She didn't want to leave this boy here. She wanted to stay with him, but she felt a chill run down her spine. She pulled out a piece of parchment from her bag she had sat on the ground, with a quill, and wrote down her telephone number and handed it to Jayson.
"Would you like to see how witches and wizards spend their nights?" Mariana looked at him and hoped that he would say yes. She knew exactly where she would take him. An evil sort of grin came across her face.

Jayson looked down at the hand writing, she dotted the "i" in Mariana with a heart. He wondered whether this was how she normally did it, or whether she was trying to tell him something.
"My list here says I should buy either cat, toad, rat or owl. I could get one today, and then we can still write letters, if you wanted to?" said Jayson. "Just give me your address, and I can do it. Wait, do owls even understand addresses?" Jayson was confused. How could an owl read writing?
"How do witches and wizards spend their nights? I really shouldn't be out too late. Mum and Dad would be worried about me. Did you know they couldn't see the Leaky Cauldron? How weird, it was RIGHT there!"

"The owls are smart. They know where to find me." Mariana said winking at him. "And if you would like, I could show up and pick you up. You know, its all up to you if you wanna come with me. I just thought that you'd want to get out of the house, spend sometime meeting new classmates and all."
Mariana was hoping that he would get a clue. She didn't feel like writing it out for him. However, she loved what she did with the piece of parchment that she gave him. She just had to dot the "I" in her name with a heart, hoping that maybe it was meant to be between the two of them.
Mariana stood up. "I'll answer all your other questions, later on. I promise." She batted her pretty blue eyes at him, moved closer, and kissed him on the cheek. "Au revoir mon ami."
