Morgan looked at Leilah, he remembered when they had first met; they had shared a class and Morgan had been arranged to sit by Leilah. At the time he had been impressed by both girls and boys, and the thought of a new girl to meet was exciting. When Leilah had taken his seat Morgan had been confused and had challenged him stating the seat was for Leilah, a girl. He had been corrected, and had decided he didn't mind as the boy was very cute. They had been bonded at the hip ever since...until Leilah's family had moved without telling Morgan where they were going or leaving an address. By the time he had found where Leilah had gone he had moved from California and had no way of contacting the other boy.

They had parted on bad terms too, after fighting and he had never gotten to apologize for his harsh words. Now seeing The boy he had pined for so many years ago had called the old hurt back to the forefront of his mind. Leil had also gotten between him and Alex, for what they had, and Morgan was incensed for that too.

Still... "You know," he began cautiously, "I never got to apologize...for back then," his face was unguarded and open. "I...I didn't mean what I said." he took a bite of his sandwich and turned his eyes away for a moment before looking back at Leilah. If only thay had met on different terms...

Leil blinked at Morgan's words. "Back then?" he looked down at the table then closed his eyes willing himself not to cry. he remembered. The fight, then him moving and not telling Morgan. Then the lonelyenss that fallowed.

Being tormented constantly because of his name. Not having anyone to talk to. Not having Morgan there to get his spirits back up. He'd toughened up sorta. He still cried easily.

He sighed and then looked back at Morgan,"I already forgave you for all that." He looked away and then back at Morgan,"Did I mess everything up? I didn't mean to. I'm just clumsy. Then I'm also completely clueless and thoughtless. I should probably try and stay away from you as much as possible. I seem to make your life a living hell. I'm sorry"

he smiled sheepishly then looked down at the table.

Morgan said with a smirk, "You seem unable to stay away from me." His black eyes glittered with mischeif.

He smiled, "Nah, it's always more fun with you around," he looked at Leilah as he finished his sandwich. Then he offered that million watt grin he only had when he was up to no good, "friends?" he asked knowingly.

He had missed Leilah, they would never be anything more than friends, but Morgan didn't have many people he called by that name anymore. He had become invisible it seemed.

Leil raised an eyebrow to Morgan's grin. He knew it only too well,"Ok, but you better not be schemeing anything to do with me." He grinned happily as a 'lil kid in a candy shop.

"So, umm I'm doomed aren't I? I mean....ummm Alex is gonna kill me...isn't he?" He asked as a thoughtful look came over his face. He blinked innocently and then waited for Morgan's answer.

Morgan laughed, "Kill? Maybe, if you piss him off too much! " he added cryptically. He would never let Alex's secret be known to anyone. He still loved the boy even if he wasn't much of an important part of Alex's life. It was different to talk to Leil again, and be friends with him.

He thought about Alex and wondered just where he did fit into Alex's life. He didn't know all that had transpired, but he knew Alex had went after Leil, wasn't Morgan enough for him?

He tried to keep the sad expression off hsi face as he looked back at Leil, "What were you thinking?" he asked shaking his head.

Alex couldn't resist, his acute hearing had lead to a series of events in which the anonymous Hufflepuff boy from earlier had been thoroughly 'seen too' and left in his own common room with scratches and bruises but a very big smile on his face. Alex shoved his hands in his pockets and walked back to the Great Hall, listening in to the exchange between the two boys. Upon entering he made straight for Morgan and stood behind him, wrapping his arms around the boy's waist and resting his chin on the boy's shoulder. "Hello gorgeous," he whispered seductively in the Gryffindor's ear as his fingers slipped into the waistband of his trousers. Alex's had become very...rowdy after every full moon of late. He would settle down in a few days, but for now he was up for anything. He shot a glare are Leilah but didn't say anything to him. He just concentrated on Morgan. He was all that mattered at that moment.

Leil smiled,"Morgan, you know how I am. I walk up to death eaters and start conversations. I've gone up to a wolf and petted it. I just don't resaon with myself that it is wrong. Alex is..strong and alluring. His name...too. I just acted without thinking. I have no warning flashy thing telling me that it might be dangerouse....Well i do I just can't really hear it."

He shook his head and laughed softly,"I live life without thinking because I can't help it."

He looked at Morgan,"I haven't changed from age 10 to now. IS that bad? Or does it make life interesting?"

Leil quickly slid back on the bench when he saw Alex. He glared at him then looked at morgan,"You don't......ah f*** it. DO what you want." He turned away from then laying his head back on the table like before.

He ignored Leilah completely, especially the comment about the Death Eaters. Instead he turned Morgan to face him properly and hooked a finger under the boy's chin, making him look up at the Ravenclaw. "He was nothing compared to you," he said simply, kissing Morgan gently on the cheek. He didn't know what had made him say it, but he knew the words were true. He smiled tenderly and kissed Morgan again, slowly and sweetly. He knew that having someone you love have sex with someone else hurt, and he did feel bad - well, only a little. But the guy was hot and ready, he couldn't say no.

Finally he looked at the Hufflepuff and moved away from Morgan to run his finger down the Leilah's spine. He whispered so quietly that he was sure Morgan wouldn't hear and even doubted that Leilah heard him - "You better watch your back. You don't have anyone to protect you."

Leil shivered slightly then turned to face Alex,"I don't need protection. Least of all from the likes of you." He smiled sweetly. "I'm a big boy. I can take care of myself. Besides, I haven't had protection from anyone for so long, what makes you think I need it?"

He smerked up at Alex then turned his back on him. He yawned slightly and then layed his head back on the table.

Alex smirked and leant forward again to Leilah's ear and whispered three words he hoped would let the Hufflepuff see how much danger he was really in. "Because werewolves bite." Alex straightened up and turned to see Morgan and smiled, taking the boy's hand. He pressed a kiss to the boy's temple as he then slipped his arm around Morgan's waist. It felt strangely normal to have his arm around the other boy, but even more normal when he bent over and whispered in the boy's ear -"I love you."

Leil grinned at the threat and hint. "Werewolf eh? Fun fun fun." He sighed as he watched Alex and Morgan out of the corner of his eye. His fists clenched into tight fists as the old monster envy knocked at his door.

He stood up and walked past them not acknowledging them at all. Morgan was doomed, Alex was an a$$ and life sucked. Typical day. Oh and the storm above, just another beautiful effect to brign this day to a close. But then, the night was just begining. What scares and torments did it hold?

Leil left the great hall and snuck out of the castle heading for his one escape. the forrest. He wondered if the crows would welcome him as usual..or had they decided he wasn't worth Sh*# too? He smiled sadly as wind swirled around him ruffeling his clothes and blowing his hair this way and that. He was threw with Morgan...now his heart realized it too.

Alex growled almost silently as Leilah walked passed and glared at his retreating back. Oh yes, conquering him would be very fin indeed. Alex sighed and then followed Morgan closely, their fingers locked together, "Where are we going?" he moaned, annoyed that he actually had to walk. He smiled cheekily at Morgan and kissed his cheek again - "I mean it, you know. I just have...commitment issues." He wanted to say something else but the words died on his mouth as the Hufflepuff from earlier walked up to him with a smile on his face and handed Alex a note. Seconds later the boy had disappeared and Alex was left with the scrap of paper in his hands.

Morgan watched Leil leave, he had a heavy feeling in his heart, but then he looked at Alex and grinned. "Come on, I got some heating lotion and I'm great at giving massage. You look like you could use a good rub down," he said seductively; he slipped closer to Alex and pulled him towards the door, trying not to notice the other boy slip him a note. He held his grin and lead them towards the empty wall. "Come on, lets get inside..." he let go of Alex's hand for a second and slipped past three times, then pushed the ornate door open that appeared for Alex to enter first.

Alex chuckled lightly, read the note, shook his head and threw it away. He was going to stay with Morgan tonight, and have whatever he wanted from the boy. He kissed Morgan again on the top of his head as he wrapped his arms around the boy's skinny frame. "You don't have to do this for me," he said quietly as he ran his hands up and down Morgan's sides, "I don't own you...well...not right this second," he said, winking at their past experience.

Morgan looked at Alex, he pulled him inside and pointed to the cushy bed inside the room. There were relaxing candles, a sunken whirlpool tub, and a shelf with lotions and rubs lining it. He accioed the lotion he had a bottle of, "I want to do this; for you." his eyes were a challenge, would Alex let Morgan give him even this small gift. He knew the prelude massage was just the beginning, but it was what Morgan wanted.

"I really am a great masseur, I promise it will feel good..." he left off not finishing exactly what would follow.

Alex sighed and rolled his eyes cheekily, "Finee, if you want...as long as I get to f*ck you after," he said winking at the boy before leaning forward and capturing his lips tenderly and sweetly with his own. He proceeded to pull off Morgan's shirt and wrapped his arms around the boy's waist. "I honestly don't know what's got into me...I'm turning into a soppy git," he grinned kissing the boy's neck.

Morgan leaned into the embrace and revelled in the moment. He enjoyed the affection and smiled. He pulled back after a bit before reminding Alex, "Massage first," before pulling off Alex's top; and then he gave a gentle push to set him face down on the bed. He straddled the prone form and rubbed some of the heating oil into his hands before slowly gliding it over Alex's back and down to his hips. He urged the trousers lower before banishing them altogether where they ended up at the foot of the bed in a heap. "Now I can reach," he commented huskily at the prone form of his lover there on the bed tantalizingly close.

Morgan rubbed the oil into Alex's back firmly and with skill; kneading where the muscles were taut and soothing away the kinks. He found himself turned on by the simple maneuvers that brought his body into contact with Alex's so temptingly.
