"Quiet night tonight isn't it?" Christy asked walking up on Blair remembering her from the trip to India, "Mind if I join you?" she asked curiously still standing looking out at the lake taking in the crisp night air.

Alex stepped silently out of the castle. He was dressed tonight in clothes he had bought when out in london with Professor Flitwick. His tight black jeans clung to his thin legs, a baggy white shirt hung loosely over his ribs and to complete the look he had a smart waistcoat and dark shoes. He smiled when he saw Blair laying by the lake. They saw eye to eye, and had both known it dee down when they had first met in the owlery. The package was, what he said it had been and it had arrived safely. The dark mark burned on his skin. An older wizard had met him in the Hog's head and finished what his father had started. He smiled as he felt the Dark Lord's power run through him. It was incredible. He saw someone else he knew sit next to Blair as he went and joined them. He sat down next to his friend, and smiled at her. "Good evening."

"Hi Alex." Christy said sitting down on the ground smoothing out the wrinkles of her blue corseted dress as she crossed her legs. She was surprised that so many were out tonight but it didn't surprise her any. She looked between the two and tell there was something she couldn't quite put her finger on, like a certain power that radiated off of their auras that was so similar, she really thought nothing of it but also wanted to know what it was. "Yes it is a beautiful night tonight." she replied to Blair, "The stars look exquisite tonight don't they?"

Alex bit his lip and winked at Blair, knowing they were feeling the same thing. "He's pleased," he whispered in her ear, making sure Christy wouldn't hear. He smoothed down his clothes and he stretched out his legs and crossed them at the ankles. "Don't I feel special," he chuckled looking towards the two girls, "A rose between two thorns," he said smiling at them both. He was used to being the only guy around, seeing as Edward only had eyes for Faith.

"Who's to say you aren't a thorn between two roses?" she asked looking at him curiously hugging her legs to her chest and looking out at the lake. "That can be changed to many different versions depending on who you are and I'm not sure how to take yours." she said jokingly.

Alex mock gasped at them both, "I feel insulted. Fine," he smirked as he stood up. "I'll leave you to yourselves then. If you don't want me to prick you," he laughed as he pulled off his waistcoat, his shirt. Slipped off his shoes and his trousers and winked at them both in just his boxers and ran. Diving straight into the black lake. Aside from his clearing, this was his favourite place, under the water.

"I hope the selphies don't get you." Christy said jokingly as she let out a musical giggle, "And no one said you would prick us!" she called after him as he took off everything except his boxers. She looked at Blair, "Maybe me and you should do it too, it does look like fun."

Alex resurfaced, flicking his hair out of his eyes and smiling at the girls, "Come on! Who can resist swimming with a dashing Ravenclaw in his boxers?" he called laughing. "Unless you're chicken," he teased diving back under the water. He grinned to himself - oh this would be so much fun, if it worked.

"I'm not a chicken!" she exclaimed after him unlacing the back of her dress and getting down into her undergarments and running into the water after him. She giggled as she started to swim around, "Well now there are two attractive ravenclaws in their undies in the lake." she said laughing as she dove under the water.

Alex broke through the surface laughing, "Two? I don't see any attractive Ravenclaws other than myself," he chuckled cheekily splashing water over the girls. Immediately regretting it as it would always be two on one. Girls vs Boys - or boy, in this case. Quickly he dove down and swam sneakily around them, between their legs and tickling their feet.

Christy's feelings got hurt when he referred to her as unattractive. She had used her looks to get whatever she had wanted since she was little, she supposed it was the fact she was a veela. She dove under the water to chase after him once he started to tickle her feet seeing how she was very ticklish.

Christy grinned devilishly as she herself came up under the water, "Hmmm, what to do, what to do." she said thinking of ways to "punish" him.

Alex bit his lip and struggles weakly against Blair, "This isn't fair, two on one!" he pouted childishly, but really he was enjoying the attention. "Don't be too harsh on me, I'm only little," he laughed still thrashing about in the water.

"Oh yes, to punish little boys." she said giggling, "They deserve to be spanked on the bottom." she said blushing as she laughed at what she said, "What do you think Blair?"
