Just a quick A/N to get you all started.
Kelly- Very sorry you think Mich is an ass. Care to tell me why?
For those of you that might think I am stupid (although I totally agree) I
do know how to spell mike, this is a nickname of her own for him and it's
pronounced Mick, lol. Sorry I haven't been writing much, I don't really
know what to tell you why I'm not writing. I'm getting way ahead of myself
and I need to slow down and go to chapter 31 and not well, really high up
there. Just to let you know, I am going to still edit all my stories so
I'll tell you when I am done so you can maybe skim over them and see all
that I have added. Well I think I'll get going on this. Thank you all so
much for all your reviews J
pI woke up and groaned. Damn hip I thought as I tried to sit up. Damn horse I thought again. Hmmm I thought, this isn't right. I just can't move. That's it I thought, I am going to the hospital wing. When I got down there Madam Pomfrey was cleaning the cupboard. She turned and saw me. "You again." She sighed. "What's wrong now?" She asked hands on her hips. "I can't really move much, erm my hip most of all." I responded. "Well, rest right now, do you need a draught?" "No, I'll be fine. Thank you." I layed myself down and fell asleep.
The door was opening and someone was walking in. The person sat down in the chair beside me. Who was it? I'm to tired to open my eyes.. p I wake up and look around. Mich is in the chair and he is apparently sleeping. I silently laugh at him and then try to sit up. I moan a little in pain and Madam Pomfrey comes in. "How are you feeling?" She asked waking Michael up. "I'm gonna be alright I guess." I turn and look at Michael and he smiles at me I look up to see Madam Pomfrey tapping a syringe. p
"Alright one shot and you'll be good as new. Mike, I believe she would like her privacy." She said to me and I looked up at her in fright, I hate shots. "Umm no, no, no! I will not take that shot, isn't there some other way??" I sat up quickly causing pain. Michael jumped to my side and put his arms on my shoulders. "There is no other way if you are still planning on going to that show this weekend. Now Michael please, if you'll excuse us-" She started to shoo him out of the room. "No! He's staying." I told her, if I was going to get a shot I needed someones hand to squish. "Are you sure?" She asked with a horrified look on her face. "I need to give it to you on the hip." "Please go ahead. Hurry and get it over with." I said in a harsh voice. Michael reached his hand over as she exposed my hip. I looked into his eyes as the needled stuck into my hip. Our eyes never moved untill she took the needle out. The pain didn't seem to be as bad as a muggle needle, although that might have been because I had Michael there. Michael let go of my hand and pulled the covers back over me as I layed down. "What time is it?" I asked him.p "Noon, most everyone is eating lunch." He answered back. He was skipping lunch to be with me.. how sweet.although he was asleep. "Did you come to see me or take a nap?" I asked him in a sort of sarcastic tone. "Sorry, long night. I had to add all my new students to a new database." "Database? You have a computer?" I asked him excitedly, if he had cds- I could listen to my long missed music. Before he could answer tho the hospital doors flew open and Patricia walked in. "Morning Kayla! Or Afternoon?" She asked herself this and then contiued on. "You are a liar! You should have told me you were hurt! Are you feeling better? Here I brought you your dressage and course setups for when your in the hospital wing." Her loud voice immediately brought Madam Pomfrey walking in. "She will not! She needs rest and Sleep and looking at thoose things will NOT help!" Madam Pomfreys voice stated, and meant not to be taken with a question. "Oh there you are!" Patricia tossed the papers onto my lap and turned around to talk to Madam Promfrey. "How long will she be in here anyhow?" "That will depend on how long she rests instead of looking at those, those thingys!" I giggled after she said that and her eyes came right to me and I stopped immediately. "Now all of you out of here!" "'Bye Kayla, Work on those 'thingys' now! I'll hope to see you back on a horse soon!" Patricia said walking back out through the doors. Micheal of course had a more expressive way to say goodbye. He kneeled down beside my bed and took my hand and kissed it. "Untill later my fair maidan." He rose and then walked through the door. I decided to take Madam Pomfrey's advice and get some sleep. My hip was already feeling better but It still hurt. p
I woke up what from the clock showed a couple hours later. My hip had no pain at all and I sat up and streached. On the night stand my dressage tests were laying. I picked them up and looked closely. Introductory Level?? I guess I have to start at the beginning. A enter working trot rising, X continue in medium walk... this is an easy test. I smiled and looked through the other test. They would both be a cinch. I took a look at my introductory to show jumping, caveletti. An easy course with small 'jumps', Lightning would be bored. Well, I wonder if I can get out of here now. I cleared my throat, "Madam Pomfrey?" I asked and immedatly I heard a chair scrape across the floor and she walked in. "Yes?" "May I please leave now?" I asked politely "Are you alright? No pain?" She was concerned. "I'm perfectly fine, thank you." I answered with a smile. "Well then, you are free to go, if you have any other problems though, please come straight away!" "Will do." I stood up and grabbed my tests and walked out of the hospital wing. I was very late, but it was late enough for most of the students to be upstairs in their rooms. I decided to go riding so I started up the stairs to the common room. On my way up I saw Michael coming down the stairs.p
"Good Evening Kayla." He said politely. "Good Evening Professor Luther." I replied back letting him know I wanted to be professional, not personal. "Are you feeling better? I was just headed down to see how you were." He asked. "I am doing perfectly fine thank you." I answered hopeing to end the conversation since we were about to meet on the stair case and we would be leaving each other, although that was not the as Michael turned around and started back up with me. "Glad to hear it. Are you nervous for your big show?" He continued. "Big show? No I'm not nervous at all, my tests are easy," I lifted them up, "Both just walk trot." "Awesome, You'll do great, I know you will," He smiled at me he wonderful, great smile. "Can I see them?" He asked. "Yep." I am handed them to him and for awhile he just looked at them and we were in silence besides the footsteps and the crinkle of paper. "Have you got them memorized?" He asked handinmg the sheets back to me. "Hell no Mich, I just got them today!" I said back with a laugh. "Are you going to practice tonight then?" He asked. "Yeah I was just going up to change," I answered. "Is Severus coming to watch?" "Severus?" I laughed. "Hell no, he's like only seen me on a horse once.... I think that was after our first fight.." I trailed off and Mich turned to me. "Does that mean I can come? I'll help you with your tests." He asked hopefully. I laughed, "Sure I guess, If you really want to." "Great." We were just getting to the picture of the fat lady, "I'll wait for you here." He said as I continued to the picture.p
"Malinopious" I stated the password and crawled through the picture into the common room. It was full of students working on their homework. Since I had missed the day I really should be doing that. Oh Well, I have more important things to do. "Oh good you are back! I was wondering when we would get to work on our homework. I wrote down all we have to do but you might need help because you weren't listening in class." Hermione started the moment I reached telling-me-what-to-do space. "Hermione, thanks a lot. I'll just take that piece of paper and be off." I siad starting to look around on the table. "Be off?? But you haven't even started your homework! I was going to help you through it, where the heck do you have to go?" Hermione was practically shouting and I saw Ron and Harry roll their eyes. "If you haven't noticed I have an important show coming up this weekend." I stated finally finidng the piece of paper with my assignments written on it. "So? That doesn't mean you can just skip your homework!" "Hermione, I was gone today, any sane teacher will allow me to have an extra day on my assignments, now if you will excuse me I have to change because I have to go get ready for a show." I of course turned to see people staring at me because of course it seems that every must know what I am doing. I could almost hear Hermione still telling me what to do as I went up to change. I quickly found a clean pair of riding pants, suprisingly, and grabbed a tee-shirt too, I put my hair in a pony-tail and grabbed my tests and left the room continuing down back into the common room. p
"Can we go with?" Harry and Ron said in almost perfect unison. "Hermione is driving us mad!" Ron added. "And of course we want to see you ride!" Harry added with a poke in Ron's side. "Nice save Harry, of course you can come, but what about your homework?" I laughed. "We need a break." Ron said sighing. "Yeah from Hermione and our work." Harry added. "Well if we can sneak past our Hogwarts mother you can come with." "We'll go with you." Harry said. "Yeah you don't care what Hermione says." Ron pointed out. "Well you don't have to care either, come on lets go." I said walking towards the picture, I opened it and crawled through. When Ron and Harry were out also the picture closed and we started towards the stairs. Michael was sitting down whistling something unfimilar. p
"Bored?" I asked as we got closer. "Yeah just a bit." He answered and stood up. "I brought a couple friends." I said gesturing to Harry and Ron. "Hi, Nice to meet you both." He stuck his hand out to each of them which they both shook. "I bet you don't need to know who's who." Said Ron matter-of-factly. "Well I kinda was wondering." Michael said, being brought up muggle except for his years at Hogwarts. "Really?!" Ron asked excitedly. "I'm Ron he's Harry. Great to meet you!" Ron continued. "Nice to meet you." Harry siad with a big smile on his face. Finally someone who didn't think he was all that special. "Sorry, I mean when I don't have you students in my class it's hard to know who's who." Michael said apologeticly. "Oh no problem." Harry said "Can we go please?" I asked them impatiently and started back down the stairs to the front door. The men were talking about something behind me but I wasn't really listening at all. We got to the arena and I opened the door to the arena and heard talking, Patricia must be having a lesson I thought. I reconize one of the voices though, not just Patricia's. I turned to see if the boys are there and they must know the voice too, they exchnge looks before me and then mouth 'Malfloy' to me. I laugh a silent laugh and smile and walk up closer to see whats going on.p
"How do I make this stupid horse go?!" Malfloy shouted, mounted on Bailey, one of Patricia's lesson horses and outfitted in the latest riding clothes. I giggled and Ron and Harry where laughing too, Michael had a smile on his face and I could tell he was stifling a laugh. "Well first of all you have to move your hands,.he starts to go and then you jerk on the reins and cause him to stop. Of course you have to kick him too, and cluck." Replied Patricia in a totally annoyed tone. I laughed again knowing the feeling of someone not listening to you over and over, but Malfloy was the biggest part of my laughing. "Hey! You're out of prison! I mean the hospital ward!" She laughed. Malfloy looked over and saw us all. "What are you doing here?! I swear if you tell anyone..." "Now Draco, pay no bother to them, we must continue our lesson. Kay- Go tack up, we'll work on your tests!" I nodded my head and went off into the stable area and went into Lightning's stall. "OK I'm gonna groom her first guys, but I suppose you all want to go watch Draco.." I started. "Could we?" Ron asked excitedly. "Go ahead." I answered and Ron and Harry looked at each other and then ran back in the arena. Michael stayed.p
"You want to go?" I asked him guestering towards the arena. "No, I barely know him, I'd rather be with you anyhow." He said of course wanting to be romantic. "So were you ever going to invite me to this show?" "Severus is going. Curry comb." I tossed him a brush and we began grooming. Lightning nuzzled me while I was brushing. "So?" "Hmmm, my ex- boyfriend and my financee. May I also mention you have also fought before?As far as I can see, not a good plan." I told him "Hard brush." I passed him the next brush. "Well, I'll bring some of the other teachers too, I wouldn't do anything to Severus." Michael pleaded. "I wasn't worried about him." I said, then wished I could take my words back. "So, Who were you worried about?" Michael asked with a grin on his face. "Soft brush." I handed it to him and he took my hand. "Hmm?" Mich asked. "What?" "What What? You know what I'm talking about, are you not going to admit you were worried about me?" Silence. "Well then," Michael continued. "Isn't it time for the next brush?" I handed the soft bursh and continued grooming in silence. It wsasn't that I had feelings for mich, It's because Severus is a much better wizard than Mich and well I didn't like him but I don't really want Mich to die. I convinced myself. But no, I do have feelings for him, obviously, I mean that's why I would love to make out with him right now. But no, I hate him, I wish he wasn't here. I hate his guts, he ruined everything for me. I looked down on my arm and saw the scar. He changed everything. Mich started poking me with the soft brush. "Sorry, umm hoof pick.." I looked up from my obvious stare. I picked up her hooves and cleaned them out. Mich was reading me like a book from the door. p
"I'll get the tack." Mich said while I was still picking out her hooves. He returned a moment later with the tack I was just finishing off the last hoof. He placed the saddle and pad on her and began the girth. "Just put away her brushes, I'll do it." I handed him the hoof pick, he looked at me and then went and got her brushes. I tightened her saddle and made sure my stirrups were the correct length and I was just about to go get her bridle when Mich returned with her bridle and my helmet and gloves. "Thanks" I muttered taking them. I put on my helmet and gloves and put on her bridle and led her out of her stall and into the arena. As I mounted Michael went up into the bleachers next to Ron and Harry. Draco was just finishing up riding and so I just warmed up in the other part of the arena. Draco got off and untacked Bailey and such and soon he was leaving muttering under his breath. It didn't take long before Patricia was starting my lesson.p
"A enter working trot rising." She shouted. "Now remember you have 60 seconds after I say that so there is no hurry." I started the test. "You overshot it, try again." I got to x and then turned around and did my centerline again. "Much better, X Devolope Medium Walk, Continue to C!" She shouted again. I continuted the test untill the end with shouts here and there about what to do, we also did my other test and a few more figures of the tests. "Awesome job. We'll work on calvelletti tomorrow." After walking Lightning out and untacking her and such I came back in the arena and the mewn was all talking about something obviously interesting. I cleared my throat loudly and they all turned around. p
"Are you all ready?" I asked them and walked towards the door. Ron and Harry hopped down from the bleachers and went out the door. Michael and I followed them. "Well I'm sure you will do just fine without me there," Mich said. Sure do the guilt trip I thought. "You can go it's just.."I trailed off "You sure are worried about your boyfriend terrorizing the world" Mich said and put his arm around me. "Well you know what he is." I said. "Yup. You smell." He laughed. "Nice compliment." I smiled and laughed, he opened the door and guestured me in. "M'lady" He bowed and I laughed. "Now if you will excuse me I have more things to do before I turn in for the night." He bowed once more before turning to the staff room. "Goodnight my fair Maidan!" He shouted back. As he walked into the room I heard him said to them, good evening, and I was sure I heard womans laughter. P
It was a quick walk back to the common room and Hermione was the last student there still working on homework. It had mostly cleared out though there were a few other students doing various things. "There you guys are, Hurry and sit down I'll help you through your homework." Hermione said. I yawned, "You know what Hermione, I'm kinda tired I'll do it later." I streached and was about to walk away, Ron and Harry turned to look at me, of course they were already sitting down accepting the fact that Hermione was telling what to do. "What?!" Hermione shouted. "Well this homework isn't due till Monday right? So I have till sunday night to do it." "But we have a lot of homework! And we will get more tomorrow!" Hermione protested. "Well that homework won't be due till tuesday. Don't you realize how this works?" "And you are probably gonna be gone all day saturday too!" "And then I'll have all day sunday to do it. Night you all!" I turned around and went to our room and I could almost hear what Hermione was muttering. It wasn't her problem! After I changed into my PJ's I apperated down to Sev's rooms. When he wasn't in the bedroom I went out into the living room. p
"Good Evening," Severus walked in from his office. "How was your ride?" "Fine thanks." I answered. He was changing his robes, but not into his usual pajamas. "Whatcha doing?" As he sliped off his shirt his arm was glowing green. His muscles were tense. "Noooo." I said outloud. "Yes. You might as well go back to your room for bed." He cam over and gave me a hug then bent over and kissed me. "See you in the morning." He said with one last hug. "Goodbye.." I said as he apperated off.p
Hmm, I need someone to talk to though. It wouldn't be fiar or nice to talk to michael about michael I thought. But how about his best friend and my finance's older brother. I smiled and closed my eyes and apperated into his classroom. Nobody here, good. I walked over to the office door and knocked. "One minute Severus, I thought you had to go." Arti answered. "This isn't your brother, I need to talk can I come in?" I asked. "If this is a bad time I can go.." The door opened. "Not bad at all!" He smiled. "Whats wrong? Severus problems?" He laughed. "I know everything about him you know. If you really want to piss him off I have a trick you can do that drives him mad!" I was laughing, :"No thats ok, I guess its more of a michael problem... But I mean its a problem because of severus." I was unsure. "Kayla, you know who you love inside you just have to find it and it might take awhile, but I'm pretty sure you already know." Artimus said sencerly. "Would you think it would be ok if I just layed next to mich tonight? I mean Severus won't know will he..?" I trailed off. p
"Kayla think of where he is." He paused for a moment. "Get it?" I nodded. "I think its best if you stay alone tonight. Or if your lonely my bed's fine too." Artimus finished with a smile. "Won't Severus mind?" I asked. "Not much trouble you sleeping with a gay man is there?" He laughed "Severus trusts me a lot more than your ex you know. Although he might think he's gay too." He smiled. "We know the truth though don't we?" I smiled. "So, you wanna go back to your room or stay with me?" "I think I'll stay- If you don't mind that is." "Don't care at all. And just letting you know, if you slept with mich tonight, I'm not saying that severus wouldn't deserve it, Imagine leaving you all alone! Oh I better stop before I worry you! Into bed!" He said cheerfully. I found their rooms were almost the same. Minor differences I was to tired to notice and I climbed into bed. Artimus Kissed me on the forehead. "You are a great woman, no wonder so many men are in love with you." He smiled and turned off the light.

I giggled and Ron and Harry where laughing too, Michael had a smile on his face and I could tell he was stifling a laugh. "Well first of all you have to move your hands,.he starts to go and then you jerk on the reins and cause him to stop. Of course you have to kick him too, and cluck." Replied Patricia in a totally annoyed tone. I laughed again knowing the feeling of someone not listening to you over and over, but Malfloy was the biggest part of my laughing. "Hey! You're out of prison! I mean the hospital ward!" She laughed. Malfloy looked over and saw us all. "What are you doing here?! I swear if you tell anyone..." "Now Draco, pay no bother to them, we must continue our lesson. Kay- Go tack up, we'll work on your tests!" I nodded my head and went off into the stable area and went into Lightning's stall. "OK I'm gonna groom her first guys, but I suppose you all want to go watch Draco.." I started. "Could we?" Ron asked excitedly. "Go ahead." I answered and Ron and Harry looked at each other and then ran back in the arena. Michael stayed.p
"You want to go?" I asked him guestering towards the arena. "No, I barely know him, I'd rather be with you anyhow." He said of course wanting to be romantic. "So were you ever going to invite me to this show?" "Severus is going. Curry comb." I tossed him a brush and we began grooming. Lightning nuzzled me while I was brushing. "So?" "Hmmm, my ex- boyfriend and my financee. May I also mention you have also fought before?As far as I can see, not a good plan." I told him "Hard brush." I passed him the next brush. "Well, I'll bring some of the other teachers too, I wouldn't do anything to Severus." Michael pleaded. "I wasn't worried about him." I said, then wished I could take my words back. "So, Who were you worried about?" Michael asked with a grin on his face. "Soft brush." I handed it to him and he took my hand. "Hmm?" Mich asked. "What?" "What What? You know what I'm talking about, are you not going to admit you were worried about me?" Silence. "Well then," Michael continued. "Isn't it time for the next brush?" I handed the soft bursh and continued grooming in silence. It wsasn't that I had feelings for mich, It's because Severus is a much better wizard than Mich and well I didn't like him but I don't really want Mich to die. I convinced myself. But no, I do have feelings for him, obviously, I mean that's why I would love to make out with him right now. But no, I hate him, I wish he wasn't here. I hate his guts, he ruined everything for me. I looked down on my arm and saw the scar. He changed everything. Mich started poking me with the soft brush. "Sorry, umm hoof pick.." I looked up from my obvious stare. I picked up her hooves and cleaned them out. Mich was reading me like a book from the door. p
"I'll get the tack." Mich said while I was still picking out her hooves. He returned a moment later with the tack I was just finishing off the last hoof. He placed the saddle and pad on her and began the girth. "Just put away her brushes, I'll do it." I handed him the hoof pick, he looked at me and then went and got her brushes. I tightened her saddle and made sure my stirrups were the correct length and I was just about to go get her bridle when Mich returned with her bridle and my helmet and gloves. "Thanks" I muttered taking them. I put on my helmet and gloves and put on her bridle and led her out of her stall and into the arena. As I mounted Michael went up into the bleachers next to Ron and Harry. Draco was just finishing up riding and so I just warmed up in the other part of the arena. Draco got off and untacked Bailey and such and soon he was leaving muttering under his breath. It didn't take long before Patricia was starting my lesson.p
"A enter working trot rising." She shouted. "Now remember you have 60 seconds after I say that so there is no hurry." I started the test. "You overshot it, try again." I got to x and then turned around and did my centerline again. "Much better, X Devolope Medium Walk, Continue to C!" She shouted again. I continuted the test untill the end with shouts here and there about what to do, we also did my other test and a few more figures of the tests. "Awesome job. We'll work on calvelletti tomorrow." After walking Lightning out and untacking her and such I came back in the arena and the mewn was all talking about something obviously interesting. I cleared my throat loudly and they all turned around. p
"Are you all ready?" I asked them and walked towards the door. Ron and Harry hopped down from the bleachers and went out the door. Michael and I followed them. "Well I'm sure you will do just fine without me there," Mich said. Sure do the guilt trip I thought. "You can go it's just.."I trailed off "You sure are worried about your boyfriend terrorizing the world" Mich said and put his arm around me. "Well you know what he is." I said. "Yup. You smell." He laughed. "Nice compliment." I smiled and laughed, he opened the door and guestured me in. "M'lady" He bowed and I laughed. "Now if you will excuse me I have more things to do before I turn in for the night." He bowed once more before turning to the staff room. "Goodnight my fair Maidan!" He shouted back. As he walked into the room I heard him said to them, good evening, and I was sure I heard womans laughter. P
It was a quick walk back to the common room and Hermione was the last student there still working on homework. It had mostly cleared out though there were a few other students doing various things. "There you guys are, Hurry and sit down I'll help you through your homework." Hermione said. I yawned, "You know what Hermione, I'm kinda tired I'll do it later." I streached and was about to walk away, Ron and Harry turned to look at me, of course they were already sitting down accepting the fact that Hermione was telling what to do. "What?!" Hermione shouted. "Well this homework isn't due till Monday right? So I have till sunday night to do it." "But we have a lot of homework! And we will get more tomorrow!" Hermione protested. "Well that homework won't be due till tuesday. Don't you realize how this works?" "And you are probably gonna be gone all day saturday too!" "And then I'll have all day sunday to do it. Night you all!" I turned around and went to our room and I could almost hear what Hermione was muttering. It wasn't her problem! After I changed into my PJ's I apperated down to Sev's rooms. When he wasn't in the bedroom I went out into the living room. p
"Good Evening," Severus walked in from his office. "How was your ride?" "Fine thanks." I answered. He was changing his robes, but not into his usual pajamas. "Whatcha doing?" As he sliped off his shirt his arm was glowing green. His muscles were tense. "Noooo." I said outloud. "Yes. You might as well go back to your room for bed." He cam over and gave me a hug then bent over and kissed me. "See you in the morning." He said with one last hug. "Goodbye.." I said as he apperated off.p
Hmm, I need someone to talk to though. It wouldn't be fiar or nice to talk to michael about michael I thought. But how about his best friend and my finance's older brother. I smiled and closed my eyes and apperated into his classroom. Nobody here, good. I walked over to the office door and knocked. "One minute Severus, I thought you had to go." Arti answered. "This isn't your brother, I need to talk can I come in?" I asked. "If this is a bad time I can go.." The door opened. "Not bad at all!" He smiled. "Whats wrong? Severus problems?" He laughed. "I know everything about him you know. If you really want to piss him off I have a trick you can do that drives him mad!" I was laughing, :"No thats ok, I guess its more of a michael problem... But I mean its a problem because of severus." I was unsure. "Kayla, you know who you love inside you just have to find it and it might take awhile, but I'm pretty sure you already know." Artimus said sencerly. "Would you think it would be ok if I just layed next to mich tonight? I mean Severus won't know will he..?" I trailed off. p
"Kayla think of where he is." He paused for a moment. "Get it?" I nodded. "I think its best if you stay alone tonight. Or if your lonely my bed's fine too." Artimus finished with a smile. "Won't Severus mind?" I asked. "Not much trouble you sleeping with a gay man is there?" He laughed "Severus trusts me a lot more than your ex you know. Although he might think he's gay too." He smiled. "We know the truth though don't we?" I smiled. "So, you wanna go back to your room or stay with me?" "I think I'll stay- If you don't mind that is." "Don't care at all. And just letting you know, if you slept with mich tonight, I'm not saying that severus wouldn't deserve it, Imagine leaving you all alone! Oh I better stop before I worry you! Into bed!" He said cheerfully. I found their rooms were almost the same. Minor differences I was to tired to notice and I climbed into bed. Artimus Kissed me on the forehead. "You are a great woman, no wonder so many men are in love with you." He smiled and turned off the light.
