Melissa walked around the empty hallways. It seemed like everyone was dead, there was absolutely no noise what so ever. She looked around for the time and hoped she wasn't late for something important or something. She sighed as she ran her fingers through her now long hair. She shook her head and started to laugh.
With no one insight this was the perfect chance to practice her gymnastic moves that her mother had taught her. She grabbed a hair tie that was conveniently place on her wrist and quickly put her hair up. She stretched her arms over her and started to run only to glide into a cartwheel. She continued to do them until she almost fell right by the stairs. The last cartwheel she did, she didn't land so gracefully. She ended falling on the floor, laughing lightly.

"Now, where is that room..." Shell sighs, carrying the last of her Astronomy measuring tools. She hated how Hogwarts' policy clearly stated in Hogwarts: A History that all class equipment must be returned into their assigned storage cabinets. She only knew this so well do to McGonagall telling her to come back her first year of teaching to put her compasses and iron protectors away.
Walking up the stairs to the deserted hallway, she sees Melissa, landing rather hard on her bottom but it didn't look like she was in pain. "Are you okay?" she asks, trying not to laugh at her grand entrance. "By any chance do you want to help your aunt or actually right now a professor seeing as she's old and doesn't remember where the storage cabinet for Astronomy is."

She sits there still laughing like it was the funniest thing in the world. Her mood changed way to fast she went from bored completely to laughing lunatic. No wonder she was never sad or depressed she was always doing something crazy to lighten her spirits. She hears footsteps approaching and tries to stop her insanely laughing as she tries to stand up. She caught a glimpse of her auntie Shell and smiled now standing up completely.
"Hey Aunt, Professor Shell. Sure, I'm fine you know just having fun with my friends."She said laughing even more.
"Anyways, sure since I have noting to do I'd love to help you, especially not getting lost or losing all those things your carrying. I've heard Peeves around here so we must take some caution."She says rushing to Shelby's side ready to help her carry some of her things. Professor Chou, your nuts if you think you old."She grins.

Shell smiles down at her when she says that she was fine, but was slightly confused and baffled when she claimed she was having fun with her friends when the hall was completely deserted. She knew Melissa was crazy like Briar, but she didn't have as an active imagination as her.
"Oh great, just what I need, Peeves attacking us." she says with a sigh, handing her a few compasses and protractors. "Thank you very much my dear." Shell smiles looking around for Peeves as she starts walking. "And now you're trying to flatter your Professor by saying she's not old. Not trying for extra credit now for class are you Melissa?" she asks with a wink, as she heard a small giggle that sounded like Peeves. "Watch out." Shell whispers, trying to hear where the laughter was coming from. |

She looked at her somewhat confused expression and hoped she wasn't confused by something she had said. Melissa was so used to have people confused with what she said it sort of lost all the fun out of it. She continues to walk along side her wonder where they need to store these things, and it seemed like Shelby didn't know where the place was. she couldn't help but laugh as she commented about peeves.
"Yeah, your welcome anytime you need help with something you know who to call."She grinned and winked as she started to laugh. "How can I flatter you when its the truth, your almost as young as me."She grinned. "And no, its not like I need the extra credit, I am one of your star students especially in your class."She flashed her a bright smile as she started to look around with caution.

Shell laughs a bit, finding the closet and fumbling with the key. "I'm not as young as you sweetie. I'm double your age." she smiles again opening the door and setting the instruments on their proper shelves. "That's right. I keep forgetting you're one of my top students in my class." she nods taking the items from Melissa and placing them on the shelves as well.

She grins."Well don't worry I'm sure guys my age or older think the Astronomy Professor is hot!"She laughed as they finally reached the storage room. She moved the boxes around her arms while she waited for Shelby to arrange the boxes she had in the storage room. Then reached for the boxes Melissa was carrying."Well maybe you should start awarding gold stars to you top students so you won't forget."She suggested jokingly as she peered out into the hallway making sure Peeves was no where in sight.
"I think its safe now, maybe Peeves left already."

Shell's jaw drops and turns a faint shade of red. "Melissa Iveria Ortiz. I hardly doubt anyone thinks that." she says avoiding her eyes as she finishes assorting the boxes on the shelves and made sure she marked all the inventory down on her chart for McGonagall. "That's a relief that's he's gone then." she says peaking out of the doorway was well. "You can go first." she teases due to her gold star comment.

She turns her head as she sees Shell's expression, she starts to laugh."What?"She asks with an innocent looking expression but still laughing noticing her faint shade of red. She thought it was funny even if she was her aunt she was still a Professor and there were days where she'd hear guys talking about her. She rolls her eyes softly as she takes slow steps put of the storage room."Well so far so good."

"You better be just teasing me. I seriously doubt that any guy even looks my way except for your Uncle Jay." she says with a nod, her face still faintly red as she places a hand on Melissa's shoulder as she follows her. Shell noticed that Melissa always liked to get her to blush and get embrassed so much she would think that's how she earned house points by how often she would do so. "That's good then. Last time, he dropped a bowl of oatmeal on my head. My hair was sticky for a week."

She laughed."Well I don't know...I'm pretty sure I heard Professor Dumbledore say something about you."She said grinning innocently. "Well, of course Uncle Jay would, its like hard for him not to."She smiled. "So it was oatmeal last time huh?"She said looking up.
"Well hopefully this won't leave your hair sticky."She said still looking at Peeves now dumping a bucket full of a greenish liquid on them.

"Now as attractive as Dumbledore is, I doubt that Melissa." she says nudging her lightly but her smile falters a bit when she mentions Jay. "Yeah I suppose so." she says before getting covered in some green liquid. "Peeves!" she screams but he was laughing so hard that he couldn't hear her as he went away to his next victim. "What is this?"

She laughs at her comment about Dumbledore even as they get dumped all the greenish contents of Peeves bucket, laughing as he leaves them there all covered in the greenish slime.She starts to wipe of the greenish substances off her arms but stops as her hands began to get sticky.
"I have no idea Aunt Shell, but its sticky...and its starting to smell."She says laughing.

"Oh great just what I need." she mutters shaking her head some and sending it colliding against the walls. "Let's go to a prefect's bathroom and take a bath. We can take turns." she says shutting the door and locking it before walking down the hall.

She nods."Hopefully it will come off in the bath."She says nervously. "But what if it does something else if it gets wet?"She says in a sort of panicked voice."You don't think we'll explode or something have this aful stench stuck to us..."She says shaking her head as she followed Shelby to the Prefects bathroom, removing what ever greenish goo she could off of her.

Shell rolls her eyes and turns around. "Would you rather go to see Madam Pomfrey first before we take baths?" she asks putting her hands onto her hips regretting it instantly.

She shakes her head having more of the slime splatter the walls."Uh, no are you kidding me..its fine, really lets just get this stuff off....I don't want anyone to see me like this."She grins laughing as she starts picking up her pace to get to the Prefects bathroom. She hopped she wasn't annoy her by everything that she had just said aloud. Melissa loved to think aloud.

"Alright alright, get in there take a bath and hurry up as I stand out here looking like a complete mess." she says opening the door and letting her in.

She laughs and rolls her eyes as she darts into the bathroom. Discarding her messy clothes she jumps into the bubble filled tub and begins to scrub off all of the sticky green goo. After a couple of minutes pass she gets out and puts on a warm bathrobe. Its not like she was going to wear her stick clothes. She didn't mind walking around in a bathrobe. Most students were probably in class so they wouldn't even notice the young Ravenclaw girl. She stepped outside."Alright all done."She says her damp hair trickling drops of water on the ground.

After Melissa gets out of the bathroom, Shell runs past her and jumps into the bath washing away all the green mess before walking out in a bathrobe as well. "Come on, I have extra clothes in the tower." she says with a nod before walking in the direction of the tower.

She nods and starts walking in the direction of the tower. While they walked to the tower she would run her fingers through her hair making sure that her hair wasn't sticky with that green goo Peeves had dropped on them. She pouted angry at him for pulling such a nasty prank on them. She always heard people talking about him and how he got them with his pranks who would of thought she was next and Shell too.

Shell sighs lightly walking up the stairs and into office handing her a red t-shirt and a jean skirt. "There you go sweetie. This should fit." she says with a smile as she takes a green dress and walks upstairs to the top part of her office. "You can change in here."

She takes the clothes great fully and nods as she walks toward the place Shell, told her she could change."Thanks aunt Shell."She smiles walking into the room and quickly throwing her messy clothes in the on the floor along with her bathrobe as she quickly changes into the red t-shirt and jeans she had received. Bundling up her clothes in the bathrobe she leaves them on the floor and in a neat pile so she could come back and retrieve them later.

Shell smiles before she disappears upstairs and changes into the fitting dress and tying her curls into a matching green bow. "Alright now just leave your clothes there and I'll wash them when I get home. You're more than welcome to come home with me today." she says with a grin. "Now do you have a class you should be in cause I can escort you there, or are you being a good student and not skipping?" she asks crossing her arms lightly over her chest trying not to smile.

She smiled and shook her head."Its alright, I can wash my clothes, besides...you have laundry to do for like a dozen people or so."She nods. "Sure, if its alright with you of course I'll be willing to come home with you."She smiled. "It'd be great to see everyone again. I've been so busy with school I hardly see them."She tells her.
She gasps dramatically."What? Me skip class, how could you ever think that, I am in Ravenclaw and not in Slytherin for a reason."She laughed. "As a matter of fact..I have no more classes for the day."She smiled.

"It's certainly alright. I have to do laundry anyway, so I'll wash them when we go home." she says with a smile before leaning against her small desk. Shell laughs a bit when she mentions her being in Ravenclaw. "Hey. Aunt Briar skipped, as did your mother and I sometimes. So not all Ravens are perfect school angels." she says with another laugh. "Well in that case, do you want to leave now?"

Post by Melissa Ortiz on Jun 9, 2008 4:36:41 GMT
She smiled and rolled her eyes."Well isn't that great, you guys almost blew our cover of being perfect Ravenclaw angels"She joked laughing." But if you going to do laundry I at least want to help out especially with my clothes."She nods. "Yeah, right now is as good of time as ever."She grins.

"Oh trust me, we already did ruin that." she says with a wink as she bursts out laughing. "And alright then, that's a fair trade." Shell smiles lightly before hugging her a bit. "Then we have to go by fireplace seeing as we can't apparate and you don't have your license to anyway."

She rolls her eyes again."Oh well thanks for that! Thank you very much!"She says sticking her tongue out before she laughs. "Well of course it is...its wouldn't be fair for you to do that with out a bit of help/"She smiled hugging her back."Hope your floors are carpeted then,where's your fireplace and Floo powder auntie?"She asked her.

"Oh you are very welcome my dear." she says with a laugh before smiling at her. "You have no idea how much your mother should appreciate you. Your cousins never help me around the house. I always clean by myself unless Uncle Jay helps me." Shell nods walking over to the fireplace that was in the room and extending a blue flowerpot of floo powder. "Here you are. You can go first." she nods lightly again.
