Alone[R.Zashterly]

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria opened the door, stepping out onto the rooftop of the school. She now stood on one of the many towers that Hogwarts had. She was glad it was a cool August night. School was about to start. It was her sixth year, she was almost out of here!

She closed her emerald green eyes, sighing quietly to herself. She pulled her curls up into a loose, messy bun. She leaned onto the edge of the ledge on to rooftop. She smiled to herself as the cool summer breeze passed by her. The breeze hinted of fall coming.

She felt some chills with the evening breeze and soon felt as if someone was watching her. She coyly peaked over her shoulder and saw him standing there. A soft smile spread on her soft pink lips and she looked at him from under her eye lashes. She turned her gaze back out to the lawns of the school. "How long have you been standing there...?" She kept her velvet voice low, wanting to make him listen.

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

Richard had been wanting to get some fresh air after hanging out in his dorm room so decided to go to one of his favorite spots. He walked up the stairs to 'The Rooftop' above Hogwarts, it was a nice day out some fresh air would be nice. He hoped his sister Jessica was getting along fine so far as she was just a first year student and he promised he would look after her.

When he got to 'The Rooftop' he noticed there was a girl there that he seen around but never met yet. He quietly walked up and stood behind her, grinning as he thought she looked rather attractive from behind. He wondered what she was thinking about, he knew she was a Gryffindor and sixth year but not much else. He stood there watching her for about 5 minutes then he saw her turn her head and she asked him how long he had been standing there. He acted sly like and pretended to be surprised at her question.

"Who me, I just got here, were you expecting someone else?"

He smirked as he replied to her.

"It's really a nice day out, I like to come up here and get some fresh air on nice days like these."

He smiled then he got up ledge of The Rooftop and sat so his back was away from Hogwarts. He was often carefree and careless like that he wasn't scared of heights. He decided he would play it cool and wait for her to say anything next as he looked into emerald green eyes. Her eyes were like deep orbs of beauty that drew his gaze , almost like they were hypnotizing him.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria looked at him. "No, I wasn't expecting anyone else, Richard!" She rolled her eyes, shaking her head, trying to stifle a laugh. "Do you really think someone would come see little ol' me?" She gave him a slight smile.

It was uncommon for a Zashterly to talk to a Gryffindor anymore, due to the majority of them being half-blood or muggle-born. However, she was one of the few pureblood families left. She watched him sit on the ledge, and bit her lower lip, careful not to draw blood. Don't get hurt..., she thought to herself.

She leaned against the ledge right beside him, gazing out over the lawns of the scool. She looked up at him. She wore a blue jean mini skirt with a black tank top. "So...what do you wanna do now?"

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

Richard listened to her as she spoke to him thinking how beautiful she was. He looked at her hair as it shined in the sun light and as a light breeze rustled it. He saw her roll her eyes in response to his statement, he knew she was playing with him. He watched as she leaned against the ledge looking over it at the lawns. He knew what her really wanted to do right now is tell her in response to her question of what to right now is say that he wanted to kiss her as he ran his hands through her gorgeous hair but he was too cool to do that.

"Would you like to see something beautiful he asked her?"
"There's these family of ducks that live in the river that the bridge passes over , I like to go there alot and feed the ducks. If we hurry we might be able to still see the ducklings they may still be too young to go off on there own."

He said with a warm smile.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria looked up at him. Her heart longed for him. However, he was a fourth year...and she was a sixth year. Oh well, she would get over that, if anything were to happen.

She smiled sweetly at him. "I'd love to go see the ducks, but it seems as if all of the animals aren't out today." She pointed to the area he was talking about and she showed him how still it was, as if there was no life whatsoever over there.

She looked up at him. She liked being up on the rooftop away from everybody else, just her and him. She popped her elbow up onto the ledge and rested her chin in the palm of her hand. She looked at him and still had that sweet smile on her face. She watched him, wondering what he was thinking about. She knew how she was thinking about a kiss, but she tried to keep that from her mind. He was here, talking to her, and she was going to remember it all...sounds pathetic, right?

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

He listened to her as she pointed out the lack of animals thinking blah blah blah blah blah ....stop making exuses he thought.

"Blah blah blah..... "

He jumped off the ledge and back on to the rooftop then he reached out his hand and tickled her on her belly. When she reacted the way he figured and turned around to face him he leaned in and put his lips next to her, he didn't kiss her he just let his lips hover there next to hers as he brushed his hands through her hair.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria held her breath as his lips lingered there in front of hers. She closed her eyes and felt chills as he ran a hand through her hair, which had fallen down. She felt her heart begin to race.

She opened her eyes barely and looked up at him. She wanted to kiss him so much, but she didn't want to be the one to kiss him. She didn't want to seem eager.

She leaned on her tiptoes a bit, seeing as he was a few inches taller than her. As she did this, her lips lingered closer to his. "Richard.." She whispered, sounding like she wanted him to kiss her.

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

Richard was nervous his last relationship had ended in pain and a broken heart that was a year ago. He fought his fears he would be dammed if he would let them get in the way anymore. His heart was racing so quickly as he stood there looking down into her eyes. Those gorgeous eyes he got lost gazing into her eyes , they were like two orbs that called to him hypnotizing him. Her lucious soft red pink lips glistening with lip gloss teased him and tortured him. He heard her call his name. He couldn't take it anymore he knew she wanted this as much as he did. He put his hands around her gripping her tightly. He leaned in all the way and kissed her, her mouth parting allowing him to explore her mouth. She was soon panting under his feverish kisses as she let herself fall into his warm embrace. He desired to stay in the moment with her forever, be dammed what his father might think of her being a rival house. She was a pure blood after all. He was a rebel, he didn't care if he pissed his father off sometimes and this was one thing he would never let his father get in the way of.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria fell against him in his warm embrace. She returned his kiss. At first, she was hesitant. But then she thought, to hell with it.

She wrapped her arms around his neck as she parted her lips, allowing him to explore her mouth. She felt her pulse quicken and her heart race with each kiss he gave her. She returned each kiss, each with equal or more passion.

She wanted to stay in this forever. Damn if his Dad was against it, she was a pureblood. She continued to kiss him, loving the moment. She couldn't stop...she was panting soon along with him.

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

He bent back her head across his arm and kissed her, softly at
first, and then with a swift gradation of intensity that made her
cling to him as the only solid thing in a dizzy swaying world. His
insistent mouth was parting her shaking lips, sending wild tremors
along her nerves, evoking from her sensations she had never known
she was capable of feeling. He leaned down, took her face in his hands, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Alexandria Alexandria! You are so fine and strong and good. So
beautiful, not just your sweet face, my dear, but all of you, your
body and your mind and your soul."

He stopped speaking and his hands dropped from her face, but his
eyes still clung to her eyes.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria looked at him through her eyelashes. She had a small smile of pure happiness on her face. "Richard.." She didn't know what to say. She took his face gently into her own hands and kissed him lightly, but sweetly upon his lips.

"You are too good." She dropped her hands, but now they rested on his chest. "You keep me balanced and stable. When I think my world is crumbling, I now I can turn to you." She smiled up at him.

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

He looked at her and knew he was in love right then and now.

"My dad wouldn't like it much if I saw you but I really don't care, I"m willing to do anything for you."
"If you will be mine then I will love you and cheerish you like no other love.
"I will protect you and serve you and breath my every last breath just to make you happy."
"Its been a long time since I've let myself have a lover or a girlfriend but be dammed I'm tired of fear, will you be mine Alexandria!"

He said passionately as he held her hands in his looking up into her eyes.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

Alexandria was taken back in shock. "I'd love to be your girlfriend!" She held onto his hands, smiling up at him.

"Forget your Dad, he won't care. I am a pureblood, we can always tell him that." She smiled at him.

She kissed him quickly and looked into his eyes. "Richard, you are the best thing that has happened to me in a long time." She didn't care that they were two years apart, to her, it seemed that he was much more mature for his age.

[Richard Abbot Zashterly]

Richard felt like he was the luckiest man alive the luckiest wizard alive nothing could dampen his feelings right now. She just said she would be his girlfriend, the past year of heartbreak and longing was suddenly erased in a whirlwind of new found love.

"Yes I"m sure that will be fine, I hope it will be enough for my dad, even so I won't let nothing ever come between us."
He said that with a deep passionate young voice full of love and vigor.
"I love you Alexandria Belle Hamilton and I promise to love you with every breath I take."

He looked into her eyes feeling lost in them , they were like orbs of light shining upon him from heaven. He knew she was older them him and that intimidated him but he loved the feeling of her intimidation over him. He took her into his arms and just held her tightly, there wasn't much more to say right then. He just wanted to hold her tightly and watch the beautiful setting of the sun.

[Alexandria Belle Hamilton]

She smiled as he said he loved her. "I love you too, Richard Abbot Zashterly." She looked into her eyes, knowing he meant every word of what he told her. She was so happy, she just couldn't explain it.

No one ever made her feel this way, never in a million years.

Lexi turned her attention back to Richard. "Richard, what are you thinking about?" It had been a few minutes since either had said anything. She had been quiet, not wanting to sound stupid with all of her rambling.
