"Are we there yet?" I asked through a groan. "Actually, where are we even going?"

He tuned around and did some sexiking making my heart melt as fast as that witch from Wizard of Oz. I liked her. I think she was just misunderstood. Its all about snap judgments isn't it? She probably came out of the womb looking like an ugly mong and her parents said 'She's gonna be evil one day' with such certainty she thought, 'might as well - ooh a monkey, I'll incorporate those into my evilness!' yeah. It went like that.

"The wonderful wizard of oz." replied James with what I assumed was sarcasm. Not too sure though.

"Hilarious." I replied snottily. "Your so full of remarkable wisdom it astounds me! So…are we there now?" I repeated for the… tenth time now I think.

"No!" James replied, again with a laugh. "Now shush, before I purposely get you lost!" He threatened. I made a show of zipping up my lips, before they split open into a wide grin. James tugged on my hand to make me walk faster.

"Are we there-?" I teased, getting cut off by James' hand over my mouth.

"Nearly!" He said with exasperation. We walked a but further down the mangy tunnel, having to bend over a bit at one point when there was a sudden drop but, after about another five minutes of walking, James pulled me to a stop. "Right, now it's time for a few rules."

"I didn't know you were one for rules." I commented airily, looking around the tunnel, avoiding James' judging gaze.

"I'm not; and frankly, I'm offended you think I am, but these rules I do value, so shut-up and listen!" He commanded with fake anger. I zipped up my lips again, this time, keeping them shut. "Right, firstly, you can't tell anyone," I gestured to my lips, giving a shrug. "No-one! Not even Bethany!"

"Beth." I corrected, giving him an innocent expression when he raised his eyebrows.

"And you can't ask where I found this place. Ok?"

"Can I speak now?"

"Sure. Why not?" He asked with a playful grin.

"Then sure, I promise I won't tell anyone."

"Then…we're here!" James interrupted my magnificent speech.

"Oooooh good! Where are we then?"

"Somewhere brilliant." whispered James mysteriously.

"Shut up, where are we?" he laughed and pulled on my hand to stand in front of him. He pushed open the little wooden door in front of me making me gasp.

"I-it's a garden?" I stated as more of a question, looking around.

"Yep, found it in… fourth year I think it was. Like it?" I nodded numbly looking around me at all the beautifully colourful plants. It looked like the whole thing was in some sort of glass dome.

"Defiantly," I mumbled, walking in slowly. "How does it work? I can't imagine how this would fit in… taking magic out of the equation of course." I added, glancing at him.

"Well… it's sort of like the Room of Requirement, but this room is broken somehow and limited in itself anyway, which is why most choose the RoR."

"Broken? In what way?" I asked, starting towards the middle of the room, letting my fingers brush against the flowers as I passed.

"Well… I didn't ask for this many flowers, and if you look closely at the glass, its cracked, and there's massive chunks out of it at the top, see," He told me, pointing upwards, I followed his gaze to the broken roof, looking around the massive willow tree's branches, similar to the Whomping Willow, but less knobbly, and shrugged. "No matter what I wish for, it's always broken. It doesn't matter though, it's well concealed on the Map, you can't see it if your not looking for it."

"Map?"

"Doesn't matter." I skipped forwards and sat under the massive willow tree, squashing a few daisies under me and I got comfortable, laying my back against the trunk and looking up at the many branches hanging off it. James came and sat next to me, watching me looking around.

We sat in silence for a while, while I made a daisy chain.

I know what you're thinking.

This girl is so cool.

And I agree.

"Why did you show me this room?" I asked looking up from my completed chain. I sat up and plonked it on his head with a toothy grin, laughing at his unamused expression.

He loves it really.

"Dunno really. I suppose I just wanted to talk to you… without everyone judging me." He added reluctantly as I raised my eyebrows.

"W-who judges you?"

"A lot of people really, they think I'm cheating on Pandy… with you." He added unnecessarily.

"Duh James, I'm not an idiot. And they shouldn't, were nowhere near close enough for us to kiss." I denied with a shaky laugh.

I know it sounds bad but I wouldn't care if he kissed me.

I hate Pandora and I always will.

"But I just... I hate her so much. That's probably why people think were… y'know, doin' it." I reasoned with a shrug, starting another daisy chain to put around James' neck.

Hehe.

"Why do you hate her so much?" He asked as I got up, searching for more daisies. I stood up with a few daisies in hand and walked back over to him.

"I think… as the bitches boyfriend it would be better if I didn't tell you." I said with a expression that quite clearly said 'sorry'.

"But if you hate her, why help her? Why don't you tell me? I'm sure she would never hesitate to tell me anything abut you. You and I know that."

"That is exactly why I can't tell you, sorry James."

"I'll never understand girls."

"Come on James! It's simple. I'm not gonna sink down to her level and tell you loads of crap so that you break up with her. I'm not that horrible. She may have done things in the past which I won't forgive her for, but for you it's in the past, and I'm never going to tell you so get over it!"

He still looked sulky, obviously still as sexy as ever, but didn't say anything else, letting the matter drop.
