Location: Gryffindor Common Room
Open To: Simon
Currently Involving: Lauren, Simon
Lauren hummed the familiar melody from one of the many muggle songs she loved, lying on a sofa by the fire. Her eyes were closed as she listened to her music, the earplugs snugly in her ears, while the ipod her mother gave her for her last birthday rest on her stomach -- something she had to friggin charm in order for it to work at Hogwarts.
It was a nice, relaxing habit for her to do... listening to her beloved music at the end of a long day. Well, her day hadn't exactly been long, since she only had one class and hadn't done much else... but whatever! It was still something that calmed her nerves. And yes, calming her nerves was definitely something she needed. Ever since she kissed Jonathan, Lauren had this disgustingly foul taste in her mouth -- he left a bad aftertaste, as odd as that sounded. Perhaps it was all in her mind. Perhaps it was her way of forgetting how nice it had been to kiss him. Either way, it was gross, and no matter how many times she brushed her teeth, it wouldn't go away!
Stupid Jonathan Kincaid. Dirty sodding git.
Thank goodness for her music, then, for it was possibly one of the only things that would distract her and make her happy. Lauren hadn't heard any word about anyone witnessing the event last week, so hopefully she was in the clear!! As she continued to hum, she soon found herself being lulled into the state of being half awake, and half asleep. Lauren could still hear her music, she could still feel the heat of the fire next to her, but her mind was racing with dreams.
