One finger gently twirled a strand of bright red hair around it in a constant circular motion. Niobe was doing it mindlessly, her blue eyes scanning a Potions textbook almost lazily as she mentally took notes of what she was reading. Hufflepuff table was mostly empty as it was a beautiful summer day out and most people were soaking up the sun while they could. She however was not interested in that one day after lunch and so had opted to stay inside where there was cool air and quiet.
She turned the page of the book, looking over a hiccup draft that she wanted to attempt one day and reached one hand out idly for the cup of pumpkin juice she had. Niobe wasn’t paying much attention and her hand grabbed the rim of the cup, tipping the orange liquid all over the table. Swearing to herself she jumped up to avoid getting any of the liquid on her robes (they were black, but it was still sticky). Hands darted to her book to move it and avoid damage to that as well.
At least there wasn’t people around really to watch her grab a few napkins off the table to wipe up the mess. Her face was bright red from embarrassment but Niobe just muttered darkly under her breath as she cleaned up the pumpkin juice.
Maybe she would have been better off going outside with everyone else…

A black panther kitten bounded over the table to the spill and began lapping up the remaining pumpkin juice. He mewed happily at the young girl for giving him something sweet to lunch on. He continued licking at the table with his tiny red tongue, his black collar jingling with every movement of his head. When examined closely, the collar read in silver lettering:
Seraphinus If found return to: Phugsius Charadus, Slytherin Common Room
The little panther looked up at Niobe through blue eyes.
Phugsius poked his head around the door of the feasting hall a few moments after the cat had entered. His emerald eyes caught Niobe and a smile grew on his face he hadn't seen her in what felt like ages. He hoped the kitten had distracted her attention enough for him to sneak up behind her and wrap his arms slowly around her waist. He slowly brought his head next to hers and whispered in her ear very lovingly, "Hey, Niobe, how are you?
He loved the feel of her body being held against his. It made him feel complete and it felt like he was doing what he needed to, for her. He felt like he was protecting her.
Seraphinus mewed happily that his master had found him.

Niobe jumped with surprise when the kitten jumped onto the table and started drinking up her spilled mess. She tried to shoo him away with a smile on her face. It wasn’t because she didn’t find him adorable, because she did, she just didn’t want his pretty black fur to get all sticky from the pumpkin juice. Just as her hands were about to wrap around his fur she felt someone’s arms wrap around her waist. Instinct jumped into her mind rather than recognition, and instead of realizing it was Phugsius, she had the reaction girl’s would have when they thought they were being grabbed.
Her hand went back and hit low and hard.
Just as her hand connected with flesh she realized the voice she had just heard, and turned around quickly, probably hitting the Slytherin in the face with her red hair. “Oh no, Phugsius, I’m so sorry!”

The blow sent Phugsius stumbling backwards onto a bench holding his newly damaged organ. The hit hadn't been too hard, but just enough to send him retreating to a bench, ow. How was it he was able to face vampires and Lucius that stupid half demon and take almost no hits, but as soon as it came to women they had the ability to one hit him. I guess that was a message that love hurts.
"Oh god," He choked now lying down on that bench, his haven, "If you weren't my girlfriend I'd take points away from your house" A slight painful wheeze filled his voice and somehow through the pain he managed to pull off a joke.
At this point Seraphinus looked up at the girl who had just caused his master pain. This was only a temporary distraction from the pumpkin juice he'd been enjoying. As soon as he confirmed his friend wasn't dead he began lapping up the pumpkin juice again.
Phugsius groaned as he lay on the bench holding himself.

“Oh my god…” Niobe’s voice was a mere squeak as she had her hands clenched over her mouth. She both felt bad for the Slytherin and was trying to suppress laughter as this usually tough guy was curled up on a bench at the table. Even his kitten wasn’t going over to make sure the boy wasn’t in terrible pain (which it looked like he was). The girl bit her lip, holding back a smile as she tried to figure out what to do. Apparently he had to learn not to sneak up on her.
She reached out and pet the cat next to her, keeping bright blue eyes on Phugsius. “Are you going to be alright? Would you like me to get some ice?” The girl said gently, running her hand through the cat’s fur as he cleaned up her mess for her.
“I could try and fix it with my wand. What was that spell, Episky?” The girl said to herself, other hand searching in her robes for her wand to try and help the Slytherin out.

He slowly sat up at the mention of her using a wand to help him. It wasn't that he didn't want her to, but there was chance she'd end up making the situation a little harder to deal with and as much as he would have liked to passionately embrace her again, the feasting hall was not a very appropriate place for that sort of thing.
"No, no, I'll be fine" He said slowly recovering from the trojan horse situation he'd just experienced. He was finally able to stand up and made his way over to Niobe. He gazed into her lovely blue eyes. He was still in a little bit of pain from the ordeal but he was going to live. He took both of her searching hands and held them in his.
"I missed you Niobe, what have you been up to, besides looking as spectacular as always?" He gave her a wink and let his sparkling emerald green eyes lock onto her sparkling blue ones. He couldn't help but admire them from where he was. He really had missed her.
"And really, don't worry, I'm fine now that i'm with you" He let a caring smile cross his face.

Even though he got up Niobe wasn’t really sure he was alright. She had hit him rather hard, her muggle father had insisted on self defense classes when she was younger. Worried blue eyes looked him up and down when he stood and took her hands. She also had a bit of medical training from her parents who were both doctors and she knew that the place she hit was a sensitive area.
“I’ve missed you too, but don’t think you fool me. My parents are doctors, I could have damaged something.” Niobe drew her hands out of his and got her wand. “It’s really a simple spell, my mother has used it a hundred times.”
She flicked her wrist, pointing her wand at the afflicted area. “Episky.”
Of course it didn’t have the desired result. None of the Hufflepuff’s wand work had the desired result ever. Instead of a hot and cold sensation followed by the pain being totally gone. They got something romantic though to fit Phugsius’ mood. A bunch of a few roses popped out of the afflicted area instead, leaving Niobe staring and not sure whether to laugh or apologize…or both.

Phugsius watched Niobe pull out her wand and a sheer sense of terror flew up his spine. "Niobe do-" Too late. The boy doubled over in pain and let out a loud scream that threatened to break glass. It felt like sharp spines were ripping through his body. He frantically searched for his wand grasping for anything on his person as the pain kept persiting and splitting him.
He finally found the thing that would end this torture and began trying to focus on his now vase like member flicking his wand at it furiously/
"Finite Incantatem"
"Finite Incanta" "Finite Inc" The flowers slowly began to shrink and disappear and the pain followed suit. The prefect lie on the ground breathing heavily. "What....the.....hell....Niobe,"
He slowly began to regain his composure. What had she done to him? She knew her wand work wasn't even near par yet. That's why he'd been giving her lessons. Was this revenge for something he'd done? He still felt small surges of pain as he tried to move. Phugsius let his arm relax and let the wand fall out of it and clatter on the ground.
Seraphinus suddenly became very alert when his friend began screaming. He immediately jumped down and began examining his master and pulled the wand out of his pocket so he could more readily find it. Once the wand had been used for it's purpose Seraphinus jumped on his heaving chest and lie down on it trying to comfort his friend.
