[Ema]

"Are you gonna skip those?" Maja asked. She sat up a little, leaning on her elbows.

[Fallen]

"I'm gonna try." He replied.

[Ema]

"Good luck," Maja said.

[Fallen]

Jasper nodded. "Thanks."

[Ema]

Maja nodded. "No problem."

[Fallen]

Jasper chose a stone and tossed it to the water. It didn't skip though.

[Ema]

Maja shook her head. "Try another one."

[Fallen]

Jasper nodded. He tried to skip another one. He failed. He kept trying.

[Ema]

"No luck today, huh?" Maja asked.

[Fallen]

"I could do this just fine a few weeks ago." Jasper mumbled. He stood up, moving closer to the water.

[Ema]

Maja giggled. "Apparently all your skill is gone."

[Fallen]

"Oh shush." Jasper told her.

[Ema]

Maja tilted her head to the side as if thinking. "No, I don't think I will."

[Fallen]

Jasper rolled his eyes at her. He threw another stone. It skipped four times.

[Ema]

Maja laughed. "There you go!" She said.

[Fallen]

"See. Told you I could do it." Jasper said, looking over at her.

[Ema]

"I never said you couldn't...."

[Fallen]

"You said my skill went away." He shrugged.

[Ema]

"I never said it wouldn't return." Maja pointed out.

[Fallen]

"Fair point." Jasper replied.

[Ema]

"Of course it is."

[Fallen]

Jasper smiled at her.

[Ema]

Maja grinned back, and laid back down.

[Fallen]

Jasper kept skipping rocks for a few minutes.

[Ema]

Maja began humming, just a random tone she'd heard one of her muggleborn friends singing.

[Fallen]

After a few, Jasper came back over. He sat beside her.

[Ema]

She smiled at him, but didn't stop her humming.

[Fallen]

Jasper smiled over at her, listening.

[Ema]

She reached the tune, but didn't stop humming, instead making up her own tune.

[Fallen]

Jasper listened to her hum, smiling.

[Ema]

Maja ran out of ideas and stopped humming, sighing.

[Fallen]

"What were you humming?" He asked curiously.

[Ema]

She shrugged. "I actually don't know. It's a song I heard a friend of mine singing."

[Fallen]

"Oh. Okay," he shrugged.

[Ema]

"I wish I knew what it was called..." Maja said.

[Fallen]

"Ask your friend?" Jasper suggested, stating the obvious.

[Ema]

Maja shrugged. "I know. But I can't right now."

[Fallen]

"Why? If you don't mind my asking?" He looked over at her.

[Ema]

"Well for one thing, she's a Ravenclaw." Maja laughed a little. "And she's in there and I'm out here and I don't want to leave."

[Fallen]

"Fair point. Then again we have completely broken most rules between our houses." Jasper shrugged. He laid back beside her.

[Ema]

"True." Maja laughed.

[Fallen]

"I swear, the heads of our houses must hate us." He mumbled, not caring.

[Ema]

Maja giggled. "Probably. But who cares?"

[Fallen]

"Not me." He shrugged.

[Ema]

"Me neither." Maja's voice sounded final, like she was stating the conclusion to an argument.

[Fallen]

"So. Their caring is pointless then." Jasper said.

[Ema]

Maja nodded. "Yes. Yes it is."

[Fallen]

"Yep." Jasper smiled over at her.

[Ema]

She grinned back at him.

[Fallen]

Jasper ran a hand through his hair.
