-Chapter 10
Brandon walked into the Ravenclaw common room. He was tired and so was Hannah on his back. He sighed as he trotted up the stairs with her. He knocked on the girl's dorm door and walked in. No one was around so he carefully laid the girl down on her bed with her name clearly written on it.
She was peaceful as he slipped off her shoes and removed the jewelery so she would be comfortable. He untied her hair and it flopped onto her shoulders magically. He sighed, tucking her into bed quietly. He stroked her head before she groaned and turned over. The boy chuckled a little as he left the room, closing the door quietly behind him.
Brandon skipped down the stairs to the common room, finding Ed and Jon sitting at one of the chess boards. They waved him over and he sat in a chair while the pieces shuffled along the board. "So, she asleep?" Ed asked, winking at Brandon who knocked him upside the head for just winking.
"Yeah." Brandon rested his head on his hands as the boys played the strategic game. He looked back towards the staircase, wondering if Hannah was still asleep.
"You like her, don't you?" Jon asked finally, making Brandon snap out of his trace. The boy sighed at his friend, slightly nodding in answer. "You know, she's perfect for you. I've never seen you laugh so much before. She's funny, brilliant, and not to mention pretty."
"Yeah, not to mention a little mental." Ed murmured and Brandon hit him again.
"I'm sure she was only a little hyper and plus Alisha was going along with her." He growled at Ed, remembering the encounter of the Wizard of Oz incident. Ed chuckled as he advanced his knight to Jon's king.
Jon then got serious, taking the knight out with his bishop. "Brandon, seriously, you should take the chance. I can see it in her eyes. She adores you man."
"No," Brandon said, sighing a little, holding his head in his hands. "I can't. It's too early in the game. If I asked her now, it would feel too pushy and I don't want to make her uncomfortable." Ed nodded, agreeing.
"Ok, but if you don't ask her by Homecoming, then I swear I am going to kick your ass." Jon said jokingly, wanting to get Brandon and Hannah together.
"You can try." The brunette boy replied fiercely. Jon punched Brandon's arm lightly in a joking way and moved another chess piece. "So, what about Jen?" Brandon asked, knocking him just the way Jon had done to him.
"Dunno yet." Brandon rolled his eyes at the response, seeing the true feelings of Jon already. "Checkmate." Jon then said to Ed and the boy slammed his head on the table making the boys laugh. "Ok, I'll see you guys later, night."
"Goodnight." Brandon and Ed said, waving goodbye soon heading up the stairs to the doors. Jon jumped through the portrait hole and toward the Gryffindor tower.
Ed was soon asleep the minute he hit the bed and Brandon chuckled as he laid down in bed. He sighed, staring up at the ceiling. "This is going to be the best year yet." The Ravenclaw boy then fell asleep gracefully in the four posture bed of the tower in Hogwarts.
