rett wasn't liking his life at the moment. hell didn't like his life at all. first was everything going on with emeline and kyra. he had slept with his best mate's fiancee not to mention first love who happened to break his heart, not that alec would have ever admitted to having his heart broken much less by a brunette. it wasn't the kind of person rett was, he didn't sleep around, he didn't have one night stands, he wasn't looking for a silly fling that would only last a few weeks, he liked long relationships, he stood for long relationship it was one of the things that made him different from other guys. most guys were only looking for someone to fuck while rett would be more than happy to wait as ong as needed to be waited for before they were ready, if they were ever ready for that step. rett had paintence and he wasn't afraid to show or use that side of him. rett also wasn't the type of person to get mad. alright so he had snapped at kyra when she had ended things between them but that was only becasue she broke up with him and said they were soul mates in the same sentence. rett may have been a guy but he wasn't emotionless, if you were doing a break up speech you sure didn't make it sound like an i love you speech that was just plain mean and then that day in the tower merlin how they had wanted to get at each other's throats. however they hadn't and only after a lot of yelling had they cooled off. then they had seen each other and sort of made up? rett wasn't all too sure yet really. he didn't want to think about his life any more he didn't want to think about anything naymore. kind of wanted to drift away into nothingness.

rett stuffed his hands into his pockets as he left the castle and walked towards hogsmeade. once you weren't the newest thing on the planet you actually cam to enjoy the weekends out of the castle grounds. he walked alone this time, he had simple figured that his friends where off somewhere however rett really didn't mind nor care much. rett entered zonko's first thinking that it would cheer him up, looking for anything fred and him could use as a prank on some stupid slytherin that would get in their nerves or something. the usual. upon finding nothing that he hadn't used or he didn't think was useful rett walked out of zonko's with a look on his face that meant he wasn't really amused by many things. it wasn't usual that rett was depressed per say he just couldn't find anything he actually wanted out of zonko's. sure he loved to prank people but his pranking muse was low if you were to call it that. rett was usually hyper and always in a good mood and the last to put anyone down but it seemed that as of the late he was just down. his life was going better in a way. kyra and him and made up but it still felt some awkwardness between them and then there was the whole emeline thing that he was completely trying to avoid. the first time he slept with her was okay but then the second time was unforgivable... if alec ever found out that rett had slept with emeline not once but twice rett wouldn't life to see another day. that was one of the things he wanted to talk to joe about. he needed adice and this boy was the biggest advice giver on the earth or at least the smartest of the group so he had to know what to do about his problem right? rett shook his head and walked into the three broomsticks, he had sent joe an owl earlier that day asking to him there, saying that he had some things on his mind that he wanted to talk about. he sat down at a table and ordered a butterbeer, taking a sip and looking up every time the door opened. he just needed to tell someone about what had happened with emeline.

hogsmeade trips were a nice feature of hogwarts that joe's former school, the durmstrang institute didn't have. it was another reason why joe preferred his new home of hogwarts over durmstrang. well, there were many reasons. the library had a wider selection of books, more than durmstrang's did, free for joe to use. plus, the books about dark magic were either banished from the library or placed into the shelves of the restricted section. the dark arts made joe feel uncomfortable. once joe had skimmed the pages of a book on the dark arts, filled with horrifyingly accurate pictures, showing the results of the curses the book taught the reader. after that experience, joe was very determined not to get involved with the dark arts ever again. he didn't want to be the caster of those terrible parts of magic. he'd never get rid of the feelings of horror and guilt at his actions.

anyway, this hogsmeade visit was going to not only involve going into zonko's and honeydukes, or involving the chance to buy his girlfriend jolene disney something with the galleons joe had in his pocket. rett had, earlier today, sent joe an owl asking him to meet him at the three broomsticks. the owl said that rett wanted to talk to joe about a few things. joe was curious about what those things were. or why he wasn't asking alec for advice. the two were really close, the best best friends in their quartet of best friends. it seemed more likely that rett would go to alec for advice, not joe. but who knows why joe was picked over alec? maybe alec was too busy that day because he was going to go on a date with arietta or something like that. it was possible. and it made sense as to why joe was the one picked for advice giving. but when arriving at hogsmeade, joe didn't immediately go to the three broomsticks. he had to get jolene, who he called jolie, something. she was mostly called by joey, but in order to avoid some confusion joe decided to call her by jolie. she didn't seem to mind her new nickname. joe really like jolie. even though everybody most likely felt the same way about their first steady girlfriend, joe really did like jolie. even though she was a bit sarcastic and had a fascination with the dark arts, joe liked her. she was intelligent and could be nice once you got to know her. and that was why he went into gladrags to go buy her something. didn't couples give each others presents every once in a while? he'd have to ask rett about that once he went into the three broomsticks.

once in gladrags, joe wasn't sure what to buy for jolie. he didn't know her shoe size or what jewelry. in the end, joe decided to get her a scarf. it was all different shades of green, and since it was a knitted scarf made from yarn it would keep her warm in the winter. feeling satisfied, joe went up to the clerk and bought the scarf. now carrying a small, white plastic bag in his left hand, joe quickly went to honeydukes. his chocolate stash, which he kept in his trunk, was getting dangerously low, and joe really loved his honeydukes chocolate. it was really the best thing joe had ever tasted. buying no less than ten regular-sized bars of honeydukes chocolate, joe left honeydukes with two plastic bags in his left hand. it was then when joe decided to enter the three broomsticks. the warm air hit joe as he walked into the place. he spotted rett immediately, sitting by himself in a table against the left wall of the three broomsticks. he ordered an iced cherry soda from madam rosmerta, and then took his drink over to rett's table.

since rett had been sorted into gryffindor, whereas joe had been placed in ravenclaw. alec had been sorted into slytherin and the sorting hat had screamed hufflepuff for carlos. that meant he didn't see rett and his other mates every day, like he had in durmstrang. the only con of joe's new life in hogwarts. he and rett were on the durmstrang quidditch team, though, and there was always classes with the other houses. but still. it wasn't the same. so joe was glad to hang out and talk with rett during their visit in hogsmeade. there hadn't been any real time for small talk, even during those few times were two of the group came across each other. sometimes they would arrange meetings by owl, like rett had done earlier today. sitting down in a chair across from rett, joe placed his two plastic shopping bags beside his chair and looked over at his friend. he then said, "hey. what's up? your letter didn't say much, except that you wanted to talk to me about some things."

now rett wasn't any kind of boy to try and work his life into something that was actually normal. but how was that possible? nothing was normal not with all the engagements going around and his parents thinking that he wasn't finding anyone suitable and getting worried and speaking of getting him engaged to mirabella but no that just couldn't happen. he wasn't too fond of her in the least. sure the girl was pretty but that was all she really had to offer. there was nothing else that really attracted him to her. she was mean she was bossy and to top it all of she thought she was the best thing in the entire world. now who would want to marry someone like that? he certainly wouldn't want anyone like that. he wanted someone he could play with, have fun with someone who wouldn't judge him and merlin he sounded way to much like a girl. he needed to find himself a girl friend and quick. however that wasn't his maim concern of the moment. as of right now his main concern was just trying to figure out why in the world he had something so horrible to his best friend just as everything seemed to be going fabulous. he and kyra had made up they were friends now but he had slept with emeline. the first time it was fine since he was more drunk than he had ever been and barely recognized who the hell she was... the second time however she taunted him. she taunted him so much that he just couldn't help but pull her on to his lap and ... well you can figure out the rest. he took another gulp of the butterbeer trying to calm his nerves. this was all wrong. just wrong. this wasn't the way his life was supposed to turn out. he was everett ivanski he was the happy, go to guy that everyone liked, the was brave and would risk his life for his friends so why was he getting such bad things?

he shook his head a little trying to calm his nerves when he saw joe enter and get a drink. he sighed a little. he was happy that he was finally able to get his friend, he had been sitting by himself for way too long. he missed the liberty of having his friends around when ever he needed them. however now that wasn't the case. he didn't get his friends when ever he wanted. he barely got to see them as it was. it was almost done to taunt them. four best friends as different as they could come had each been split over the four houses that hogwarts offered. each house really did reflect each of them but rett still couldn't help but want to be in the same house as his mates, though he wasn't sure which one he would fit into. rett looked questionly towards the bag but didn't mention anything not wanting to start the conversation like that. he wanted to get right to the point. thank god that seemed what joe was trying to do too. "well you know emeline bletchley? alec's first real girlfriend? the one we where sure he was in love with?"

[/color] he asked. of course joe would remember it was all alec could talk about for an entire summer back in third year. even though alec had never out right admitted to being in love with emeline it was quite obvious he was. "thing is... i - i sort of - well i sort of slept with her... twice."[/color] never ever in life had rett ever felt like such a bad friend. the way the words wrapped themselves around his lips. "the first time i was drunk though!"[/color] he said quickly to defend himself. "just not the second,"[/color] his voice went soft. how could he do such a thing to his best friend in the entire world, one he had known longer than he had known kyra, one that he confided with all of his secrets. he'd done such a bad thing. he almost wish he hadn't said it out loud... but it was out there, and now joey knew rett's biggest secret.

rett seemed to be very anxious for joe to come and talk. was it really that serious? joe hadn't know his friend to be quite this serious or anxious before. joe was usually the worrier, the more serious one of the group, while rett was usually the prankster and the hyper one. what was bothering his friend, it must be pretty serious. joe hadn't ever seen his friend like this before. maybe hogwarts had somewhat changed rett like it had changed joe a little bit. ever since he began to date jolie, he had been a little more outgoing, changing joe for the better. had it changed rett for the better or the worse? taking a look at how anxious his friend was, joe decided that it was the later. or maybe joe was wrong. maybe it was just today. well, whatever it was, joe would find out in a few minutes. he then took another sip of his cherry soda, and then listened to rett's story. if there was one thing good about joe, it was that he was a good listener. when somebody confided in him, joe wouldn't say anything until the confider was done talking, and he always put his attention to the other person and kept eye contact with him or her. shy yet a good listener, that was one way to describe joe. which one was better?

joe nodded a little, silently, when rett mentioned emmeline bletchley. joe wondered where this would go. how was emmeline bletchley part of what rett was going to confide joe about? "yes... alec would never stop talking about that girl," he said, when rett said alec was in love with her in their third year, still not sure what emmeline had to do with anything. and then rett began to confess his biggest secret. now joe could clearly see what emmeline bletchley had to do with anything. in fact, she had to with everything. OK. so... how was joe going to give his friend advice? joe hadn't gotten very far in the romance category. in fact, jolie was his first girlfriend. he hadn't had any exes, anything else romance-wise. well, one little piece of advice was very clear in joe's head. but first, he'd have to calm down his friend. "calm down, rett. being drunk for the cause of sleeping with someone is understandable. alec won't kill you for it. here, have some honeydukes chocolate. that always manages to calm me down when i'm panicking." reaching down in his honeydukes shopping bag, joe brought out a bar of chocolate and broke off half of it, then gave it to rett. when his friend was somewhat calmer, joe began to give advice. "well, before you tell alec about these little incidents," no doubt rett was probably not willing to tell alec anything about this, and was about to complain, but joe put a hand up, silencing his friend, and went on "you need to think about why you slept with emmeline not once, but two times. because nobody, except for longterm boyfriend and girlfriends and husbands and wives, sleeps with another single person more than once unless it's because of the following. one, they really like the other person's body. two, they like the other person for who they are. or maybe it's a combination of both." joe looked his friend right in the eye and said, "now, buddy, which of the tabove describes your reasons for sleeping with emmeline?"

well, that was the other clear thing that joe had wanted to say to his friend. the other thing was telling alec. once rett would answer joe's first piece of advice, he would say more about the "let's go tell alec you slept with emmeline twice" piece of advice. however, it's always better to do one thing at a time than all at once, right? while joe waited for a response, he took another sip of his cherry soda. mmm. cherry soda was delicious. besides chocolate, cherry soda was one of joe's most favorite foods. a few more sips later, joe was done with his cherry soda. ordering another one, and his last one, from madam rosmerta, then ate a few pieces of honeyduke chocolate. delicious! it was like joe was in food heaven, eating chocolate from honeydukes, the best chocolate selling place ever, and drinking cherry soda. however, there was rett in mind. joe couldn't just go off in his own little food heaven at the moment. his friend needed him for advice, and it wouldn't do rett any good to have his friend distracted. joe turned back his attention to rett, just in time, for his friend was beginning to respond to joe's first piece of advice.
