ahh the joys of character writing.

There once was a girl who was not the most pleasant to be around. She was cynical, snide, and was very overpowering. She walked through the halls with her head held high, and her chest pushed out infront of her books. She was a typical Slytherin girl, though her drive was concentrated like a Ravenclaws. Though, there was once a boy who was begged to come around. He was compassionate, caring and was very understanding. He walked through the halls with a smile at all times and at his sides would be a random person that he had befriended. He was a typical Hufflepuff boy, though his courage was that of a Gryffindor.

The girl had been around the school and everyone knew her name. It wasn't normally for a good reason, but they knew it nonetheless. Other Slytherins kept her close in tow, because they knew that it would not be a good idea to let her be an enemy. She wasn't optimistic about love, and she thought fairytales were just something that her house elf told her to get her to not listen to her parents yelling at each other. Like the girl, the boy had been around the school and everyone knew his name. It wasn't ever for a bad reason, and at the sound of it, people smiled and began talking of the charming boy. People of all different houses kept him close in tow, because they knew that if they were having a bad day, he would cheer them up immediatly. He wasn't looking for love, but he knew that it would come one day, and when it did he would be their prince charming.

One day, this girl got assigned to be this boy's partner in Muggle Studies. The girl didn't let anyone know that she had taken this class, and the boy proudly spoke openly about his halfblooded background. She was baffled to why this boy was so genuinly kind to her. She didn't know if it was because she was so beautiful, or if it was because he liked how she looked in her robes. He on the other hand was baffled to why this girl was so moody. He didn't know if it was because she was having troubles in this class, or if it was because of her home life. He knew she was a pureblood, but that didn't have an effect on him.

He wanted to know more about her, and she wanted to know more about him.

The assignment required the pair to think like a couple. In one situation, one was a witch or wizard and one was a muggle, in another both were muggles and another was with both being magical. The couple would then have to decide what to tell their child about their background. The assignment took a month to do, and it was required to pass the class. The girl and the boy managed to actually get along, and suprisingly enough the girl began to open up to him.

She talked about herself most of the time, but she also talked about home. It wasn't a lot about her home, but it was enough to let the boy know that things would not be going anywhere. He just sat there and listened to her, but he would talk sometimes. It wasn't a lot, but it was enough to let the girl know that things were going to change.

The girl was baffled at how she could have fallen in love with someone so annoying. He never would overstep the boundaries that she wanted to be over stepped. He never pushed any issues that her other boys had pushed. He always listened and was so attentive to her. He was so nice. The boy was also baffled at how he could have fallen in love with someone so annoying. She would always contradict herself and then blame him for it. She always talked about all the people she had been with before. She always asked him what he liked her about her. She was so vain.

They kept their relationship hidden until he brought up the issue at hand. He was sick of keeping it hidden, and she was sick of him being so nice, so she told him. "I hate it that you're so damn nice, Kyte." And he answered, "I hate it that you're so damn cynical, Jade."

In that month, he proposed to her without asking her father's permission. He wanted to, but she told him not to, that it would be a bad idea. Her family had the normal pureblood mindset, and he understood that. They got married about two months after they left Hogwarts.
