"Yep. You're just way too good at this. I saw right through your little act." He took the cigar from her with a sassy little smirk before bringing it back to his lips again. "This is fun, Parv. Thanks for sharing this with me," he said with a sincere smile, truly feeling special for being the one friend that she had chosen to share this moment with out of everyone else.

**Parvati Patil** May 28th 2011, 6:17 pm

"Aww darn it." She said with a small frown. "I thought I was doing pretty good." She said with a sigh. "I guess not though, or maybe you just know me to well." She suggested as an afterthought. "Yeah, you just know me too well." She said with a confident nod. "Oh, you're welcome, Al." She said with a wide grin. "I'm glad you were willing to share it with me. I wouldn't have wanted to do this with anyone else." She told him.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 1st 2011, 7:24 am

"Nope. I saw right through your little act." He smiled as he looked over at her, then held his pinky out for her to take. "But only because we're such amazing friends," he clarified, smiling softly as he looked over at her and leaned against her.

**Parvati Patil** June 1st 2011, 7:26 am

Parvati laughed lightly and smiled at his comment as she took his pink in his, placing their hands in the dirt between them as she picked up the scotch and took a small sip of it with her free hand. She smiled at his words again and then leaned her head against his. "Best friends." She clarified as she leaned against him.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 1st 2011, 9:34 am

"Forever," he added with a grin before removing the cigar from his mouth and handing it back to her. "Hey Parv? What do you want to do after Hogwarts?" Parv had always seemed like the girl who knew exactly what she wanted. "Do you have any, like...big dreams you want to accomplish after you graduate?"

**Parvati Patil** June 1st 2011, 4:48 pm

"Yes, definitely forever." She said with a wide grin as she took the cigar from him. "Do you mean like career wise what do I want to do?" She asked him as she placed the cigar in her mouth, taking a big puff before pulling the cigar out of her mouth and blowing out the smoke. "Or do you just mean like what dreams do I have for after Hogwarts?"

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 4:33 am

"Um. I don't know," he shrugged. "Whatever. Career wise...or anything else. Just...where do you want to be when you're out of Hogwarts for good?" he asked, turning his head on her shoulder so he was looking at her.

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 4:39 am

Parvati thought for a moment. "Well, I'll have to be somewhere in England." She told him. "It would make life much easier if I was since I am going to be cheering for the National England Quidditch team most likely." She told him. "Other than that though I just want to be with you, and James, and Scorpius, and Dom." She said with a small smile. "I just want to be able to see all of you regularly.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 6:19 am

"You want to cheer for the National team? That's awesome, Parv." He smiled as he looked up at her face. "I like the way you dream so big. I don't know how to do that," he admitted, knowing how everyone else noticed the way he was also so hard on himself. He even convinced himself that he wanted to open up a music school after telling himself over and over again that he'd never have a record deal.

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 6:24 am

Parvati smiled at him and moved her hand so that she was holding his entire hand in hers, rather than just his pinkies. "You can dream big too, it's not hard Al." She told him. "I'll help you with your dreams, and soon enough they'll come true." She promised him. "I know mine did. My dream of cheering to the National Team has officially kind of become a reality." She said quietly.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 7:39 am

Al looked down at their hands and smiled. His eyes widened as she whispered something else, and he lifted her chin up to look her in the eyes. "Did you just say what I think you just said?"

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 7:41 am

Parvati looked up at him when he lifted her chin and brought the cigar to her mouth, taking a puff before attempting to blow the smoke out of the corner of her mouth so it didn't go in his face. "It depends on what you think I said." She replied.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 7:52 am

Al pulled back as she breathed out the smoke, wanting to avoid getting any smoke in his face. "You said your dream came true. Parvati, do not leave me hanging. Give me details now."

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 7:53 am

Parvati gave him a small smile. "It did come true." She told him. "My dream of having a chance to cheer for England's National Quidditch Team." She added. "Yeah it came true, or it's going to come true this summer.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 8:00 am

Al squeaked and pulled the cigar out of Parvati's mouth before he tackle hugged her. "OhmyGod, Parvati that is amazing! I knew you'd be able to do anything you set your mind too!" He hugged her tightly then pulled away, and positioned himself so he was on his knees in front of her. He cupped her face in his hands and looked directly at her. "Details. Now. Tell me everything. Does James know? When do you start training? Or is it just an audition? What color is the uniform!?"

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 4:45 pm

Parvati let out a small squeek when he tackle hugged her but immediately wrapped her arms around him and hugged him back. She really hoped he wouldn't drop the cigar, there were still some good puffs left in that baby. She grinned widely as he cupped her face and looked back at him. "Alright, well, no James does not know and don't tell him because I don't know how to tell him and I want him to find out from me." She said quickly. "I start this summer and basically what happened is that the coach send me a letter in the mail and he said he had been watching me cheer these past few years and he said that he wanted me to come and train with them this summer to kind of get a feel of it and then after I graduate if everything works out this summer then I will be cheering for them full time." She said with a wide grin. "And they are red and white!"

**Albus Severus Potter** June 2nd 2011, 8:49 pm

Al lowered his hand as she continued talking, and brought the cigar up to his mouth as he sat down in front of her. "OhmyGod, Parv! That is amazing!" He grinned and hugged her again, squeezing her tightly before pulling back to look at her again. "That's...that is awesome, Parv! You're going to be the greatest cheerleader ever! James is going to be so proud of you! And you know I'm going to try to go to your games so I can watch you cheer on your team, because you know my eyes won't be on the players. Quidditch is bloody boring. The cheerleaders are the only good part of the game."

**Parvati Patil** June 2nd 2011, 11:58 pm

Parvati grinned widely as she looked at him and wrapped her arms around him when he hugged her. "Thanks, Al." She said with a wide grin. "I'm sure he will be. I just don't know how to tell him." She said with a light shrug, for she felt like part of James was going to be upset that this summer they would almost never see each other and after school was over they would almost never see each other. "Good! You better come to some of my games! I'll be the hottest girl out there." She told him with a wink.

**Albus Severus Potter** June 3rd 2011, 12:58 am

Al blinked a few times. "Um. James, I just got offered the deal of a lifetime and all my dreams are coming true. Easy as that." He pulled the cigar away to puff out the smoke, then put it back in his mouth as he grinned at Parvati. "Yeah, you will. James is gonna get all possessive when all the Quidditch players are hitting on you."

**Parvati Patil** June 3rd 2011, 1:06 am

Parvati stared at him and rolled her eyes. "It's not that easy, Albus." She said, being over dramatic and using his full first name. "You act as if it's just like a cherry on a sundae but it's not like that." She said, acting as if she was making sense. "Yeah," She said with a light laugh. "It will probably bother him a bit." She said quietly. "But I mean, it's not like I'm going to be hooking up with them, I'll just be spending a ton of time with them. They'll be like my brothers, maybe."

**Albus Severus Potter** June 3rd 2011, 1:08 am

"He's your boyfriend, Parv. It should be easy. Just tell him about it, and I'm sure he'll be over the moon when he finds out," he told her seriously. "Your hot brothers," he corrected. "Maybe. I don't pay attention to Quidditch. The only player I know is Viktor Krum because he's awesome." He paused as he thought of an old distant memory. "Scorp made out with him, you know."

**Parvati Patil** June 3rd 2011, 1:10 am

"No it won't be, Al." She told him. "How am I supposed to tell him that I got a job in a career that will make it so I barely ever get to see him? It's going to suck and it will be so hard." She said with a sigh. "I don't know. I don't follow quidditch." She said with a light chuckle. "There is this super hot guy on the cheer team though." She said quickly. "He's so hot oh god. I've got such a little crush on him." She said, flushing slightly. "WHAT?! Scorp made out with Viktor!? What?" She asked in shock. "Viktor used to be like my best friend before he moved."

**Albus Severus Potter** June 3rd 2011, 1:27 am

"It'll be hard...but you two love each other. You'll make it work." Al laughed as Parvati mentioned the hot Quidditch player. He knew his BFF well enough to know that she'd never do anything to hurt James, so he saw no problem with an innocent crush. "Yeah! He got totally wasted one night, and he told me that they made out. I doubt he remembers it now though. I've never seen him get so drunk."

**Parvati Patil** June 3rd 2011, 1:31 am

"Yeah, that's true." She said with a small smile and a nod. "I just don't like the idea of like never seeing my boyfriend." She said with a sigh. "I guess it's just what you have to do though, right?" She said and raised an eyebrow at him. "That's so weird!" She said with a light laugh. "I mean, I knew Viktor was like gay and stuff." She said quietly. "But I never saw him and Scorpius as two people to make out."

**Albus Severus Potter** June 3rd 2011, 1:50 am

"You two will work things out somehow. I promise." He smirked and shrugged his shoulders. "It was before Scorpius even knew he wasn't straight. It was actually the same night he ended up kissing me for the first time as well. Good times," he noted sarcastically, rolling his eyes.
