and i'm a little bit lost without ( Y O U ) ... // A N D I ' M A B L O O D Y B I G M E S S I N S I D E;;. . . . . . . . . . . The sun ticked across the sky, degree by degree, shadows lengthening and the temperature dropping as the sun began to set of the majestic building that was Hogwarts. Students and Professors were milling around enjoying the last hour of sunshine before the night began and dinner was served. The corridors slowly emptied, as did the large library where many had spent time after class catching up on homework or squeezing in revision. Most of the stragglers filtered out, leaving a few studious peers behind, and one very frustrated one in the corner.
Xavier screwed up his latest sheet and threw it across the table, the ball bouncing amongst the other scrunched up essays already there. The Slytherin wasn't having a very good day as far as his work was coming. He'd been distracted all day, no thanks to a close encounter in the Quidditch locker room involving one very attractive Hufflepuff... As if school work wasn't hard enough, he's also got to contend with his body not knowing whether it wants men or women!
Sighing, he pushed his hand through his messed up brown hair, ruffling it further before slamming his book shut. He dropped his head to the table, closing his eyes and groaning, just about ready to give up. Sitting up and opening his azure eyes again, he started with a jump as he realised he was gazing into the eyes of someone he didn't recognize.

Jacob woke with an irritating urge to read something. slipping from his bed he moved to dress in his usual jeans and tee shirt with his trainers for his feet. grabbing a jacket he headed down to the library he didn't feel like any food so just walked in grabbing a book on magical creatures and how to look after them he slowly moved to a table and yawned as he sat down his sleep pattern was off thanks to some rowdy young first years who has decided to have a rather noisy sleep over in the room next to his.
He looked at the young man who sat already at the table he looked like Jacob felt tired with his head down on the table. It was then he saw him looking up at him " Hi names Jacob " he said holding out his hand for the boy to shake " mind if I sit here ?" he asked placing the heavy book down on the table in front of him. He didn't sit right away as he felt till the boy said it was ok it would be impolite to do so, so he stood looking down at him.

and i'm a little bit lost without ( Y O U ) ... // A N D I ' M A B L O O D Y B I G M E S S I N S I D E;;. . . . . . . . . . . The guy standing beside his table looked fairly normal. He was dressed in quite casual clothing considering the mass population wore nothing but their uniform, it was really a wonder the House Elves didn't drown under shirts and ties on washing days. Internally shaking that random thought away, Xavier turned his ice blue eyes back on the guy who'd just introduced himself as Jacob. Eyes flickering to the outstretched hand, the Slytherin reached out and shook it, nodding his head towards the empty chair in silent permission.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Xavier," he said in reply, sitting back in his chair, hands spread on either side of his book. A group a rowdy first years ran past a nearby stack then, their laughter carrying through the large library. Xavier narrowed his eyes in annoyance at them, lip lifting into an almost-sneer. The young man really detested how out of control the younger years could be sometimes, especially when others came to this place for peace and quiet.
The chaser noticed the book Jacob had grabbed from the shelf and raised a dark eyebrow. Nodding towards it he met the other boy's eyes. "Are you taking Care of Magical Creatures or is it merely a passing interest?" He asked, deciding he might as well start up a conversation if they were going to share this table, after all, he clearly wasn't getting any work done as of yet.

Jacob sat down and sighed opening it to the first creature he chuckled as he looked at Xavier he saw his look as the first years ran nosily past them and he too groaned a little. His hand rubbing his temples to quell the on coming head ache that seem to come from inside him. " yeah , well sort of I am taking it but its also a passing interest " he said turning the book to werewolves and showed him. Turning it back he sighed leaning back in his chair as he tried to figure out the boy. "Slytherin huh?" he said " I'm a griff" he said and turned the book so he could read up more on the ware that he was.
So why you hiding in here?" he asked with a deep sigh " me its to get some quiet from some first year olds and the teachers " he said " I like adventure as the best do but some times a bit of quiet goes along way " he said " especially when you've only had like three hours sleep all night " he said and rubbed his eyes.

and i'm a little bit lost without ( Y O U ) ... // A N D I ' M A B L O O D Y B I G M E S S I N S I D E;;. . . . . . . . . . . Xavier nodded as Jacob spoke, gazing at the book as he turned it around, showing a page on werewolves. An interesting topic, of course, and a topic most people took a keen interest in. He preferred the more archaic references, the creatures that are found in myths and legends, to the ones popularised in modern day culture.
Raising an eyebrow, he nodded at Jacob’s reference to his house before mentioning his own. Crossing his arms, the qwerked eyebrow rose a degree. “I suppose that means that I am meant to instantly distrust and dislike you now?” He shook his head. “If that is the reaction you are looking for then I’m afraid I’m about to sorely disappoint you. While it’s true a lot of our… peers, are stereotypes of our Houses, some of us do not put too much belief in inter-House rivalries.” Xavier uncrossed his arms, finished with his comments about the Houses now that Jacob was ready to change the subject. It was a topic that irked him, especially when he was shunned merely for his House. Not all pure-blooded Slytherins wanted to see the end of all Muggles, nor were they all plotting the demise of the other Houses’ students. Pushing the topic away from within his over-active mind, he focused on the new topic.
Xavier couldn’t help but smirk at Jacob’s comments as to their reasons for being in the Library. “Actually, it’s the exact same reason. Some students don’t appreciate that some of us actually want to learn,” he said, nodding, the smirk still stretching his pale lips. Shrugging he pulled his book towards him again. “I assumed coming to the Library would help, but my 10 inches on the properties of cauldron materials has barely surpassed 2 before it’s discarded.” The Slytherin continued, glancing over at the rather impressively sized pile of screwed up essays.
Blue eyes darted back towards the other student. “Is it really that crowded and… distracting up in the Gryffindor tower?” Xavier was genuinely interested; after all, he was never going to step inside the Common Room of the other houses.

Jacob chuckled " na , just some new first years over excited over starting school free from there parents , this time next weak it will be all tears and ' I want to go home'" he said putting on a sobbing voice in pretend. He closed his book and sighed " I know that feeling, its like me and this magical monsters stuff I just can't get around it " He said and gave a deep sigh " Another reason I'm here , but I'm glad your not like sytherins of old, as I wouldn't be sat here." he said and gave a yawn " god, I do hope they don't kick off tonight again" he said thinking of the lack of sleep he'd had and the amount of sleep he needed.
he watched Xavier and chuckled " so what classes do you have?" he asked besides potions and the properties of cauldron materials ?" he sat back in his chair and chuckled to himself " well what ever classes you have if you need help just ask I don't bite " he said and smiled at him. He thumbed the binding of the book and turned the page to hypogriffs " ah a creature I an't even get close to" he said and chuckled " they smell the wolf and become too skittish" he moved threw the yellowed pages and read each one his head resting in his hand as he did looking at each image as he went his belly rumbaling as he rembered he'd not eaten " do you think the first years have left the dinning hall yet ?" he asked hoping so. So that he could eat in peace and quiet and not the loud noisy bustle that usually came while they were there.

and i'm a little bit lost without ( Y O U ) ... // A N D I ' M A B L O O D Y B I G M E S S I N S I D E;;. . . . . . . . . . . Xavier couldn't help but chuckle at Jacob's comments about the first years, especially as the comment was true. They were all full of themselves in the first few weeks, but after that the home sickness set in and it was all tears and 'I wanna go home!'s, as he'd said.
Xavier quirked an eyebrow at Jacob's comment, smirking sly he replied in a sultry voice "And perhaps I want you to bite?" He chuckled at his flirtatious comment before returning to his normal husky tone. "I'll bare that in mind, and I also take Defense, Care of Magical Creatures and Transfiguration," he said, shrugging before continuing. "Well, those are my favorites, at least." Glancing down at his book, he briefly wondered if maybe he should have not flirted for once in his life... before quickly shaking the thought away. It was an ingrained part of himself, why change? Looking back up through azure eyes, the Slytherin smiled a little. "What classes do you take, Jacob?" He asked, his tone friendly enough.
The young man listened to what the boy opposite had to say, about to comment on the Great Hall before Jacob's previous comment sank in. 'they smell the wolf and become too skittish' His mind raced with possibilities before he quietened them and decided to ask. "What did you mean when you said that they smell the wolf?" Xavier asked, his tone curious and his eyes glittering at the idea of learning some new information about this stranger he had just met.
