Alyssa sat down in the gardens and had laid out a checkered mat on the grass. She wasn't actually planning to eat alone. She had an owl send a message to Rory, Jonnie and Jayden to meet her there. The whole reason she was here, wasn't really to eat lunch. It was more like a magic practice session, or so she chose to believe. (She had still brought food along). On the mat also lay a tea cups, spoons, plates and other cutlery.
"Engorgio!" She said, waving her wand and the teacup grew larger. This scene looked really familiar, Alyssa thought, but quickly dismissed it. She continued using this spell on the other objects, while she waited for the others to arrive. After several objects had been enlarged, she decided to try out another new spell she had just learned. "Mobilarbus!"The spoons started to follow her wand. She laughed at the interesting sight. She couldn't imagine that she was actually using magic. Alyssa would have only guessed or dreamed that things like this would only exist in fairy tales. That's when she remembered why the scene had looked so familiar. Alice in Wonderland. Alyssa hated that story, though. She didn't understand it at all.
Alyssa shook her head, getting rid about the thoughts about the stupid fairytale. She looked at her watch. "I hope they get here soon. I'm such a bloody loner." She said and sighed.

As Rory walked down to The Gardens, she looked up at the sky and thought Wow, it's beautiful out here! Then, right as she looked down, she tripped over a branch, let out a small squeak and landed right in front of Alyssa's picnic. She burst out laughing as she realized how stupid she must have looked. "Hey, Alyssa! Wow! This looks awesome!" She said, trying to change the subject.
She looked at the floating spoons and said, "Impressive. I like how you enchanted the spoons. You should make them dance. Ooh! Make one of them breakdance! That would be awesome!"
Rory got excited at the thought of breakdancing spoons and she waited anxiously to see if Alyssa would make them do it!

The owl had swooped in on Jonnie when he least expected an owl, the little yellow parchment attached to its little leg. He looked for a second, thinking maybe it was meant for someone else, but no one was in the corridor at the moment. He took the yellow slip and the owl flew off. He raised an eye brow and watched it go, its soft feather playing music on the wind as it flew back to wards the end of the hall and the open window. He shrugged and looked to the paper. The neat hand writing was not from someone he had received a message form before. He read it twice.
A slowly smile played on his lips as he read it for the third time. Alyssa, the Hufflepuff girl he had helped in the dungeons was going to hold a little picnic of sorts, and wanted Jonnie to come. He laughed softly, and decided to go to his own common room to get to the dorms. A picnic always called for something special, and this was indeed his last year at Hogwarts. It was high time he started having some fun, right?
Moments later, Jonnie stepped from the common room, his clothes neatly changed, but not to freshly pressed robes, or even muggle wear. No Jonnie had went all out for his new friend. Jonnie, of course, was wearing....
And soon the fun would start.

Alyssa looked up from the spoons when she heard a thud. She saw a girl on the ground. "Are you okay?" She said, a bit worried. She let out a laugh when she noticed that the girl was Rory. "Oh my gosh, are you alright? That sounded like it hurt!" She said and continued laughing. Alyssa prompted herself to stop her laughing when she noticed Rory had changed the subject.
She looked back at the spoons. "Oh, thanks." She said smiling. "I've been trying to work on my magic, so I'm not a total idiot." Alyssa laughed when Rory had told her to try and make the spoon breakdance. "Is there...a spell for that?" Alyssa asked, trying to hold in her laughter. She waved her wand, trying to get the spoon to twirl and fly in circles. She used the color change charm on the teapot and soon it was flashing different colors before her eyes. "This is so crazy." She mumbled. Was there a spell or charm for everything?
Alyssa looked at Rory. "Let me..pour you some tea!" She said, smiling. She used Mobilarbus on the multi-coloured teapot and tried to direct it to the teacup by Rory. She tilted her wand and the teapot began to pour some tea out, unfortunately, it was spilling all over the mat instead of inside the cup. Once the teacup was finally full, she brought the teapot down. "Now..is there a spell for cleaning up spills?" She asked, looking at the brown liquid all over her checkered mat.

Jayden had been strolling around the castle, trying to make sure he knew where his next class was on Monday, when he heard some ominous voices up ahead. They sounded like seventh years, so he decided to backtrack to the Great Hall and maybe grab something to eat. When he reached the Hall, he saw dozens of owls swooping in, delivering the morning mail. Laughing as he dodged a few, he realized that one had crashed into a table and landed right in front of him.
Bending over, he realized that the envelope was addressed to him. He pondered briefly before opening it, wondering who it was from. Perhaps Jasmine wanting to start her Quidditch training, or Jonnie wanting to have a jam session. Either way, he needed something to do. Finally opening it with difficulty, he opened the parchment and realized that it was from Alyssa. Smiling, he scanned through the contents of the letter, and decided that he would go see her in the Gardens.
Strolling through the fields surrounding Hogwarts, he finally came upon the place where Alyssa had told him to meet. He saw three figures looming on the horizon, each with different colored robes than his own. It was sort of a chilly day, although it was still warm enough to get away with a t-shirt and jeans. He still had put on his blue-trimmed robes, but he didn't know exactly why. He found it ironic that with him included, there would be one person from each house at this party.
As he finally came closer, he saw Alyssa and Jonnie there, as well as a girl that he had seen around the castle, but did not know. Closing the gap between them, he smiled as he saw Alyssa practicing some minor magic. He was happy that she was getting more comfortable around magic, as she was pretty afraid of the stuff at first. Then again, probably everyone was. He just couldn't remember a lot of stuff from five years ago.
"How's it going? It looks like you started the party without me. Alyssa, why exactly did you tell us to come anyways?" His eyes briefly scanned over Jonnie before adding, "It's nice to see you again, Jonnie. It's been a while, since Alyssa got lost in the dungeons." Smiling, he stood beside him, looking down at the little party that Alyssa had set up.
Turning back to the girl he did not know, he held out his hand and politely said, "Hello, I don't believe I've had the pleasure of meeting you before. My name is Jayden." He wondered what year the girl was in, and how she knew Alyssa, as it was obvious that Alyssa had invited all of them to this little party.

Rory looked behind her as she heard someone coming down the hill. She saw that it was Jonnie and she tried very hard to stifle back a laugh what with his attire and all, but she couldn't hold it in and she burst out into insane giggles. It was probably the most brilliant outfit she had seen in a while.
She then had to look away so that she could stop laughing and she saw that Alyssa was changing the teapot different colors. She stared in awe as she knew that with her having ADD, bright colors always caught her attention. Rory knew that she probably looked like an idiot, but she didn't care. She then heard Alyssa ask if she wanted some tea and she scrunched her nose and then said, "Okay, I'll try some. I have to admit, though, I've never really liked the stuff."
She watched as Alyssa tried to pour the tea with magic and didn't succeed very well. But she knew that she probably did better than Rory could ever do. When the cup was finally full, she brought the cup up to her nose and sniffed it. She always thought that tea smelled nothing like it tasted. Then she brought it to her lips and took a sip. Well its not that bad. She thought to herself as she took another sip.
Rory then looked behind her as she heard more footsteps and she saw that it was a Ravenclaw. She smiled as she recognized him. He was in her Potions class but she had never really talked to him before. She remembered bumping into him in the hall once but that was about the only time they'd said something to each other. She looked back at Alyssa and smiled as she took another sip of tea.
Rory then saw Jaden reach out his hand towards her, greeting her and she put her tea down, swallowed, shook his hand and said, "Oh, I know who you are. You're in Potions with Alyssa and I. It's nice to formally meet you. I'm Rory."
She then let go of his hand, picked up her tea cup and took another sip while looking back and forth between Alyssa, Jonnie and Jayden.

Jonnie Ringo moved slightly to wards the little party, his eyes seemed unfocused as he swayed lightly. He smirked as he looked around to those present, his beaded locks gleaming brightly in the morning light. He glared down to the tea cups and shook his head, then tapped his forehead with the palm of his hand. He looked again leaning in slightly to get a better view, his hair falling in his eyes. He tossed his hands up and fought back the long hair, knocking beads aside as he spun in a small circle, as if swatting away a group of bees.
"Mah, I thought I was blind for a moment, unfortunate to be so, with such enlivened company present. Of course not you Jayden, I can not look at you like thus, but alas, what is this?" He motioned to wards the cups, swaying lightly on his feet, as if he may be drunk. The full effect of his costume was brilliant as he moved his hands about when he spoke. He glanced to Jayden, lighting a small smile on his lips.
"Are you hording all the young lasses for yourself mate?" He turned to Rory, and took her hand suddenly, brushing her knuckles across his lips. "And such a fancy lass as this, I could see why hording would be fanciful for you Jayden, these all yours? Or shall we share in this bounty." He dropped a wink to Rory and looked down to Alyssa. He placed his hands in a cuff over his heart, and swayed back, eyes going wide.
"Alas, I have but one heart to lose today, I shant be able to choose in this matter, I but have only one choice." He swooped down and planted a firm kiss on top of Alyssa's head, dropping to one knee in front of her, "And a beauty so told, as new as a fresh born breeze over the gulf of an ever spanning coast line, I shall call you the life of this party. You have, I see, brought us all together. Full form is it?" He smiled, using his hands to speak more than his words, and rolled back, to lean in a comfortable position, his eyes glancing to those present, he laughed lightly.
"I have but one question," he spoke softly, his lips parting in his charming smile. "Where, oh where, dear friends, is the rum?"

Rory just stared at Jonnie as he swayed back and forth like a drunk pirate. She shook her head, trying not to laugh. He really is a good actor. She thought to herself. She then felt her hand being grabbed and watched as Jonnie kissed it and then winked at her. She laughed as he dropped her hand and she got back to sipping tea.
Rory then heard the one question that she knew that she was going to hear soon. It had to do with rum. She laughed and then said, "Alas, you seem to already be drunk, dear friend. You've started without us." She then imitated Jonnie as a drunk pirate and then laughed.
Rory then coughed and rubbed her neck. She wasnt feeling too well today but the good company made up for it. She coughed again, but this time she coughed into a napkin. She looked around at everyone and thought of how odd they all must look together. She then said, "Hey, look. We could represent Hogwarts. They should take a picture of us. We have one of each house." Then she laughed, feeling stupid that she hadn't noticed this before.
Rory then layed down on the grass and looked up at the glorious sky.

Alyssa turned around, wondering what everyone was laughing about. She then saw Jonnie dressed up like a pirate. The only word that came into her mind was 'Fancy'. She started to laugh. "Wow, Jonnie. If I knew you were going all out, I would've came as...something else." Alyssa said, unable to think of a costume.
She tried to hold in her laughter as he pretended to be drunk. She looked at her place mat, all she had was tea. She focused on Jayden as he asked her a question. "Oh, I just wanted to get some help with magic. Especially, cleaning up this mess!" She said and pointed to the brown liquid on her mat. She didn't want to sound like a pathetic geek so she added, "And to get all my friends together, what else?". She smiled at all of them.
Alyssa rubbed her forehead where Jonnie planted his kiss and let out a small laugh. "I cannot tell if you are pretending to be drunk or ARE drunk. And as for rum...all I have..is tea. Unless you can conjure up some." She smiled and picked up her wand. "Let's see...Accio Rum?" She called out, starting to feel delirious from Jonnie's act.
