Fallen boards

[Penny Ecco]

Penny wandered around Hogsmeade until she came to the Shrieking Shack. This being her third year at Hogwarts, it was only the first time she had seen the Shrieking Shack. It wasn't as impressive as she had heard--just an old, old house that looked like it might topple over in the next gust of wind. There were boards covering most of the windows, but Penny spotted a board that had fallen out of place to reveal an empty space she could crawl through. Did she dare?
Penny looked around to see if anyone else was at the top of the hill. No one was. She threw her bag in first, then crawled in after it.
Inside it was covered in dust. There were a few mice and quite a few spiders running around, but they didn't scare Penny. She settled into a musty old sofa, where perhaps she could finish her drawing in peace.
However, the prospect of someone finding her in such an odd and forbidden place made her wary. Every creak in the floor made her jump. She felt sure that someone would find her, yet she didn't want to leave.

Bradley crawled through a small door in a room in the back of the shack. Finally alone. Bradley thought. He walk from the back room into a tattered room that looked as if it was once a living room. He continoued through the house till he got the the front drawing room. He heard a noice, stopped, then turned. "What are YOU going here!?"

[Penny Ecco]

Penny whirled around. Her suspicions had been confirmed.
"Who are you?" she demanded.

Bradley looked confused towards Penny How come i have never seen her before? he thought. "i might add the same question to you. How did you get in here? I thought i was the only one who knew the enterence."

[Penny Ecco]

"I found a fallen board," Penny told the boy. "Who are you? Do you go to Hogwarts?"

[sublime]

"of course i go to hogwarts! I'm Bradley, Bradley Huggins." wow. maybe this is the friend i was asking for he thought. "ahhhhhh..... well i am assuming you go to Hogwarts also. I'm a 3rd year, what year are you in?"

Bradley looked at the girl with mild interest. He was no longer afraid of her. Bradley is a boy who looks older then his age of 13. He is nothing special. He has deep grey eyes and a long dirty-blond hair he has that don't give a crap attitude . He walked up to the girl and sat down next to her. He leaned over and looked over her sholder at her drawing. Crap thats good, He thought. "Wow. It's the lake. I wish I could draw that well. You don't mild if i hang out for a minute. I'll leave when ever you want me to." He started to feel less nervous and continoued on. "I've never met ANYONE in the Shreaking Shake before. Do you go in here often? I mean you've got to be brave to crawl in through a window. I bet your in Gryfinder....." Crap i am talking to much. i should let her talk "soo...... Ahhhhhh........" Bradley felt less sure of himself. He reasured himself be thinking Don't screw this up. Act cool. If she doesn't know me then she won't know how big of a loser i am.

[Penny Ecco]

"Yeah, I'm a third year too," Penny told Bradley. "And, well, you don't have to leave. I mean, it's not like I own the place."

[sublime]

Bradley was glad that he wasn't kicked out. "Hey do you want to hangout...." Bradley looked around at the eroding house. "...somewhere less... ahhhh..... dark. We can go to the grounds, i know a secret passage, or walk around Hogsmed...." Bradley got up, put his hands in his pockets and looked at his shoes. He said in a very small voice "or if you don't want to we don't have to. i can just leave if you want me to."

[Penny Ecco]

"Of course! Let's go somewhere. Perhaps the Three Broomsticks?" In an effort to seem friendly she pushed her dark hair out of her face so her features were more visible, and she grinned.

[sublime]

"Cool.... ok.... Yeah...." Crap thought Bradley i left all my money in the Slytherin dormitory "I forgot all my money in my pants in the castle. I can get to the castle super fast and grab some cash. You wait right here. I'll just be a minute." crap why didn't i invite her "wait unless you want to come." Bradley desprately trying to inprove the situation. "But you don't have to if you don't want to" Bradley is flippinf out now and really frazzaled.

[Penny Ecco]

"Sure, I'll come to the castle," Penny replied. "So what house are you in?" she added, gathering all of her things back into her bag. She was containing all of her excitement at this--a new friend, possibly.

[sublime]

wow she doesn't mind. this chick is really cool. "Ok just follow me." He started to relax and guided her towards the back of the house. As they approtched the secret enterance Bradley stopped and faced Penny. "OK what i am about to show you you can't tell or show anyone." chill out just trust her. He waited for her to answer before he countinoued through the passage.

[Penny Ecco]

"All right." Penny wondered what it was that Bradley was going to show her. She followed him.

[sublime]

They continoued through the passage. It began to grow dark so Bradley pulled out his wand and muttered "Lumas." He turned to Penny, who look a bit scared but also currious, and asked her to do the same. "Hey don't be scared were almost there."
