It was about 2 a.m. (1:58 to be exact) on a warm, fall night at hogwarts. The 7th year boys dorm was only half full. Most of the 17 year old boys in that house hated sleeping in their dorms - they would rather sleep in a girl's dorm (winkwink) or stay up all night and get completely wasted. It's doubtful that any of them had any idea what the difference was btween a school night and a weekend night any more.
In one of the beds, on this particular evening, was one boy who was, admittedly, one of the ones who was never in his bed. 2 hours earlier, Adler Lindvall and dropped onto his bed - exhauseted and fully clothed. But now these factors were creeping up on him. His pants were not comfortable and the fabric didn't move well under the blankets. The neck of his shirt was being sretched arcross his neck and everthing seemed too hot. Not surprisingly, he woke up within seconds, with a light sweat on him. He sat up, rubbed his eyes and ran a hand through his hair - looking to see what time it was. He lit a small candle that was near his clock and groaned mentally seeing it was 2 am.
(( I hope that all made sense ))

((yeah))
There came two laughs from the door to his dorm. They seemed to be getting louder instead of softer.

By Jake’s book, 2am was a little early to be turning in for the night. He hadn’t been doing anything drastic tonight though, he’d been down in the common room talking to one of his friends, however the friend’s girlfriend had come in and they’d started making out, so Jake decided to go upstairs to bed. Upon arriving up in the dorms Jake noticed the worst Slytherin 7th year, a boy named Boris Flemming who wore glasses, had serious ahcne, who only breathed through his nose when sleeping, was fast asleep, in his bed, with a teddy in his arm. Raising an eyebrow in a way that suggested exactly what Jake thought of the boy, he moved towards his own bed, once there to realise that his best friend, who’s bed was next to his, was awake. After flopping down on his own bed, fully dressed still, Jake didn’t sit up to say, “Alright?” the question was obviously directed at Adler, as the only other boys in the dorm were asleep and, in Boris’s case snoring loudly.

Adler had just been pulling off his itchy t-shirt when he heard a voice next to him. It was odd, really, because Adler hadn't noticed Jake come in at all. Maybe the noises made by Borris's snoring had drowned out the opening of the door and walking across the room made by Jake. He squinted at his friend through the dim light and tired eyes. "Yeah, man... " was all he mumbled at first. "Can't sleep." he added a second later. He rubbed his eyes again and summoned a cold water bottle which he drank from and woke him up a little.

((Hehe, okay))
Jake just listened to what Adler said, getting more annoyed by the second by Boris’s sinuses. Slowly standing up he said, “Wait a sec,” to Adler before taking the water jug off the window sill and placing it by Boris’s bed, then he slowly and carefully lifted Boris’s hand up and placed it in the water jug. It wouldn’t stop him snoring but it would make Jake feel slightly better about it.
Sitting back down on his bed Jake located his friend’s face with his eyes again. He decided to tell him about the events of the previous day, “Women,” he started off with, “You don’t know if they’re coming or going half the time…” he thought about Chole, “It’s all ‘I love you Jake’ one minute then ‘I don’t give a damn’ the next.”

Adler watched Jake and what he did to Borris with a smirk - that kid had it comin'. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and put his elbows on his knees so he could watch Jake talk. He shook his head to what Jake said. "Tell me about it... but, wait... who are you even talking about?" Adler asked. He hadn't been able to talk to Jake as much as he would've like for the past week or so, now maybe that's because Jake had a love interest that Adler hadn't known about until now.

"Tell me about it... but, wait... who are you even talking about?"
“Chole bloody Goyle,” Jake replied, suddenly realising he hadn’t told Adler anything about the past couple of weeks, “According to my sister we’re ‘obvious’,” Jake made a face at his friend, and scooted along his bed so he could lean against the wall. “God. Apparently I screwed up cause I told her to stop getting all… you know? Mushy on me.”

Adker oicked at his nails while the two of them talked. "Is that that blonde girl you pointed out to me once?" he asked, vaugly remembering rushing down the halls with Jake and hearing "Hey, there's Chloe." and turning to see a blonde head bobbing down the hallway. "Anyway... what did she do when you told her to lay off a little?" he asked, not seeing any problem with that request himself.

Jake nodded in reply to Adlers first question and then responded to the second, "She kinda freaked out... well she kinda yelled at me, but not really and then walked off..." he shook his head to himself, although he wasn't saying it out loud Jake felt bad about the situation, guilty even. He looked over at his friends, "Now shes not talking to me."

Adler shook his head. This is why he hardly ever ot involved with girls - they were just too complicated at times. One minute - they're in love with you, the next they throw punch in your face because you forgot to tell them something. "Well, I don't know what you were thinking about doing, but I would just forget about it for now; you guys need to cool off." he shrugged.

Jake nodded, “Probably.” He yawned deeply, slid a bit further down onto his bed, and closed his eyes. He was actually quite tired, and the bed was actually quite comfy. Drawing his legs up to his chest Jake then said, “You got a date for the ball yet?”

Adler made a small 'psshh'ing noise at Jake's question. Him? Attend a school event? It was an absurd concept. In fact, he hadn't even thought about the ball. He had hardley paid attention to the announcement. "You know me better than that... I don't do school events. Especially not gala events that include finding dates in this place... what about you? Were you going to go with that girl?" he asked, knowing Jake to be a bit more involved with the school.

Jake smiled slightly, “I suppose I was actually…” he replied, “Didn’t really think about it… Screwed that one up though… I could always go with Scar I s’pose.” Jake wished that, in some ways, he could be more like his friend, he wished he didn’t attach his feelings to other people as much as he did.

Adler chuckled to himself for a second. "Scar... that's a lovely nickname." he teased. He drank from his water bottle again before putting ti back on his nightstand and laying on his bed with his head resting against the headboard. "Anyway, have fun... and when you dn't have fun you know that I'll be out and about... doing nothing and you could have been, too." he told his friend with a smile.
