I look up at him and smile, sitting up so that I could look him in the eye. "Sounds good. I have another question if you don't mind," I say, looking down for a second. I hoped it wouldn't be a problem for me to live with Riddle for a while. I was tired of living with my good for nothing ex. My eyes met his once again and I took a deep breath. "Would you be okay with me living with you for a while? I'll pay rent and whatever," I say, hoping that would sway his answer slightly. It was amazing what money could do to people. If it wasn't a problem, then we could go ahead and leave this place to pick up a few things at my house before heading out to eat. That was a good plan...or to me it was.

I nod happily at her agreement before raising my eyebrows to signal her to go on. Her question shocks me, so much so that I'm actually quiet for a moment. Aqua living with me? "Uh, sure. You don't have to pay rent or anything, I live in my parent's basement. But, don't worry, there's a door coming in so that we don't have to go through the top floor." I reply, nodding. I didn't get why Aqua should have to pay, it wasn't even my place. "But, uh, I only have the one room, so you can take the bed and I'll have the couch." I add, shrugging. I'd have to take down my posters of girls in bikinis, though.

"Thanks, it is greatly appreciated," I say, looking away for a moment. It was an odd request but it was better than going back to my parents. I refused to live with them, that was the only reason I still lived with my ex. I look up as he say I can have the bed and shake my head, "No, no. I already use a couch as my bed. You take the bed." I begin to get up and grab my bag, offering my hand to Riddle. "If you don't mind, I would also like to get some clothes from the house before we eat. I can get the rest tomorrow," I say, smiling at him. I just hoped Gregor wouldn't be there; that would be hard to explain to Riddle.

"Its not a problem." I reply with a small shrug. It was odd, but I didn't have a problem with it. As long as my parents didn't decide to come down, that would be kind of hard to explain. I roll my eyes as Aqua says that she didn't want the bed, but I knew I'd convince her of it, anyway. I stand after she does, taking her offered hand in mine before we start out from under the bleachers. I toss my board down on the ground, stepping onto it before looking at her. I didn't know where to go, so I'd just follow her until it was time to go abck to my basement home. "Is it far?" I ask, hoping it wasn't. It'd be sorta hard to skateboard across town.

I smile as Riddle jumps on his board and let go of his hand to step onto mine and ride a little. "Not too far. Maybe ten minutes by board...depending on how fast you go. Or we could take my car," I say looking back at him for a second before grinding on a rail that got in my way and jumping off my board to wait for him. I keep my eyes on his for a minute before looking at the sun setting in the sky. I smile to myself and watch it with a sort of dreamy look. Looking back at Riddle, I smile and pick up my board. "I think you would prefer the car," I say jokingly.

"Oh." I reply dumbly, looking down at my feet. I feel like an idiot. I mean, I was an idiot, but I usually didn't feel like one. "Okay." I add cheerfully, walking over to take Aqua's hand in mine before leading her out towards the parking lot. "Once we get your clothes, do you want to go back to my place to drop them off or just go to McDonalds?" I ask, looking over at her. It didn't really matter to me, I didn't have a problem with either; though going back first would give me time to take my posters down, and clean up a bit. "Its messy." I add, looking away. But, I was a guy, and weren't guys disorganized in general?

I smile as Riddle takes my hand and look over at him as he speaks. "Well, we can go to your place. It's whatever you want," I say shrugging and smiling as we came to my small Prius. I hated this car with a passion but it was all I could get at the moment being that it was bought from my cousin. I smile and unlock the car, releasing Riddle's hand and walking to my side to climb in. I looked around quickly to see if I had anything embarrassing out in the open but noticing nothing. I put the keys in the ignition and put my sun glasses on though they would be of no use. They only made me look 20 percent cooler.

"Okay. Let's go get your stuff, head to my place to put it up, then go get food." I reply, following her out into the parking lot. I open the passenger side door of the Prius, climbing in and setting my board in the florboard so that it leaned against my legs. I raise my eyebrows as Aqua puts on her sunglasses. "I have no clue why you have those on.. but they are fucking hot." I state, chuckling. I twist to pull the seat belt over me before running a hand through my green and brown hair. I cross my arms over my thin chest, looking out the window as we start out of the parking lot.

I smirk and begin pulling out of the parking lot and head down the road to a small house I called home and pull in. Three minutes...why did I waste gas coming to this place. I shrug mentally and pull my shades on top of my head and jump out, seeing Gregor's car and cursing under my breath. "You wanna come in or stay in here?" I ask, looking at Riddle before I closed my door. I walked to the entrance and opened the door, looking at Noel, my German Shepard as she ran to me. I crouched down to kiss her head and tossed Gregor an infamous "you-did-something-to-my-dog" look. Walking to my part of the house, I ignore any part of conversation Gregor tries to start and begin to pack my clothes.

"Uh. I'll come." I answer, shrugging my shoulders. I open my door and climb out, following Aqua up the walk. I look down at the dog, holding out my hand for her to smell before following her gaze to a guy. What. I was confused, but I decide not to jump to conclusions, even with the flaming jealousy that flamed up within me. I had a notoious jealous streak, but I'd been working to keep it under control, and I took this as just another lesson. I lean against the doorjam as Aqua begins to pack her close, training my green gaze on my feet awkwardly. I didn't want to be watching if she was putting bras or panties or something in her bag.

I could feel Riddle's tension without even being beside him and looked up, walking to him and kissing him lightly. "I'm only living with him because my parents disowned me for dating him. When we broke up, they still refused to take me back. Don't worry," I said, smiling at him and walking back to my bag, packing a few more things before zipping it up. "So, who's the twig?" I heard Gregor ask when I walked into the kitchen. I ignored him for a minute before he continued talking. "I mean, what kind of punk walks into someone else's house and tries to take their girlfriend?" With a swift move, I immediately slapped Gregor. "We're over. We've been over for 3 years. I'm only in here because I need somewhere to live and I now have somewhere else. I'm coming by tomorrow to pick up the rest of my stuff," I hiss, putting Noel on her leash and motioning for Riddle to follow as I loaded Noel. I walked back inside to get my bag and tossed it in the trunk, walking to my side and closing the door once I had everything inside.

I look up as she walks over to me before pressing her lips to mine. I nod slightly before following Aqua back through the house, ignoring the guy's jab at my thin frame. What was wrong with being skinny? Obviously she liked it. A betrayed expression passes over my face at his next statement, though I can't help but giggle as she slaps him, effectively telling him off. I wander back outside after Aqua, not wanting to get into a fight with the guy. I would if it came to that, but I'd prefer not to. I climb into the passenger side of Aqua' Prius again, putting my my seatbelt and looking over as she climbs in. "He's a dick." I say simply, crossing my arms back over my chest.

I look over as Riddle says Gregor was a dick and nod. "He always has been. Doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut or how to treat people with decency," I say as I look over at him. "I think it's your turn to drive, I don't know how to get to your house," I say, laughing lightly at how I had missed that detail. I look back at Noel, now sprawled out on the back seat like she owned the car. "Is it okay if she stays with us?" I ask, not wanting to have to leave her with anyone. This dog was my child almost. She had been with me since she was a pup and now, thinking of her leaving, I couldn't deal with that. I look over at Riddle and kiss his cheek. "Sorry about Gregor, like I said, he's a douche."

I nod as she tells me that he was and gives me details on how he didn't know how to treat people with decency. "That might be a good idea." I agree, a light chuckle escaping me. "Yeah, its fine." I reply, shrugging my thin shoulders. I smile as Aqua leans over to plant a kiss on my cheek. "I don't feel like getting out, scoot over to sit on my lap -ignore my wand in my pocket, I got my Hogwarts letter eight years ago- and I'll get out from under you to get in the driver's seat." I explain, hodling out the arms to her, unclicking my seat belt. I hope she'd ignore the joke, once it was out of my mouth it sounded totally perverted and stupid.

I roll my eyes as he explains how he was going to get to the driver's side and was glad that I hadn't buckled up. I scoot over and climb onto his lap, smiling and kissing him as I did so. "There, now you get over there...in a little bit," I said against his lips. It would be a good show for Gregor so he knew I was over him and that I had someone else. I smile for a second and reach over to crank the car from Riddle's lap, listening for the radio but amazed when it didn't come on. I pulled away from him and allowed him room for his great escape, hoping he could actually make it.
