Dare Meeting

Zabby wandered away, and noticed the infamous Slytheran twins. She didn't know if she wanted to say hi or let them talk among themselves.

Aiden groaned and begrudgingly followed his sister.

Amy spotted a new Gryffindor, one she hadn't met before.

"Ah, look brother another Gryffie,"

Zabby stiffened and turned around. "If you have something to say, say it to my face, Slytheran."

"Now girls," Nicolas said. "Be nice." He gave a crooked smile that said he wouldn't stop them if they decided to ignore his comment. "This is neutral ground as far as I can tell."

"Amy, this is Zabby," Nicolas said. "Zabby is this Amy, my girlfriend."

Realizing he forgot about Aiden he added hastily. "This is Aiden, her brother."

Zabby relaxed. Somewhat. She couldn't trust anyone. Her birth mother had taught her that. She held out her hand. "Hello Amy, Aiden. Zabrina, Zabrina Gallagher. Zabby's for my adoptive parents to use." Her tone was icey.

She had a bad feeling about this...

"Oh," Nicolas gave Zabby an apologetic look. "I'm sorry about that. Zabrina," he said. "This is Amy and Aiden. Ams and Aiden, it's Zabrina."

Zabby nodded. "Nice to meet you." Nodding to Nicholas, she walked off. The whole 'Gryffie' comment had set her on edge.

Once she got far enough away, which was the other side of the room, she stopped and sighed. She really hadn't meant to be rude. Maybe once Nicholas left, she'd go apologize for being rude. "Hope they'll accept it..." she thought grimmly.

Amy raised her eye brow, "Well isn't she touche, what did I say? I personally like the name Gryffie, considering it better then "Hey you"" she said as she folded her arms in front of her.

Then she turned and smiled at Nick, "She sure told you huh? So how are you doing Nick?"

"Good," Nicolas said giving her a smile. "I'm glad that you could come."

Ana sighed.
She closed her eyes and leaned her head against the wall.
So many gryffies...it was like some kind of weird colony...

((Hey there's only two here! While four Slytherins!))

((I have to agree with Lustre on this one! Four to two! In Slytheran's favor! haha))

((lol...but to Ana more than 1 Gryffie is a swarm...lol she's paranoid))

When Zabby had calmed down, she walked over. "I am sorry...I have...issues...with certain nicknames. Please do not think of me as rude because I did not mean to appear so." She inclinded her head. "Let's try this again. I'm Zabby. Zabby Gallagher."

((Someone should head in the MM since her boyfriend just died. XD))

Nicolas nodded. "No problem. We are entitled to dictate what people call us." Nicolas had several nicknames for different people.

Zabby nodded. "But, I shouldn't have reacted that way Nicholas." She didn't want anymore nicknames, but she had the feeling more would be on the way.

Nicolas shrugged.

"So everyone, have you gotten a letter that has your respective dares?" Nicolas addressed the group gathered.

Zabby shook her head. "No... I'm afraid not..."

((Oh yea... haha Nick'll get to that.))

"Not to worry," Nicolas said brushing it away. "You'll recieve one soon."

Ana raised an eyebrow.
"Good to know this is well-organised isn't it..." She muttered sarcastically.

Nicolas on his part, ignored her.

Zabby grinned. When would he send those out...?
