Empty.Void. ((open))

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse strolled easily through the thick forest. he was deep in the forest, bored and thinking. Claire was gone... it just felt so wrong. Jesse hadn't realized how much he actually loved her until he found out she was dead... perfect timing. he wanted nothing to do with Bella... maybe ring her stupid neck, but that was the extent of it.

He sighed. He no longer had anyone to turn to, other than the dark lord. Diane had turned Ebony from him, and he was rather sick of being berated by Ebony. Diana was a pathetic Hufflepuff and couldn't be trusted. There was no one. And at this point, Jesse really need a female companion.

[diane]

Diane had been sent on yet another mission by the dark lord. He wanted to take over Germany and Diane, along with a few other nice companions had scouted Germany. Taking note of the Ministry and amount of Aurors that were on guard. She had just returned yesterday and wanted to visit Ebony quickly before heading off to Japan. Since she couldn't apparate in, Diane strolled along the narrow pathway through the forbidden forest. A place that her and her friends used to get in all sorts of trouble. She remembered one night, her boyfriend, Austin and her had snuck off into the forest in their seventh year and lets juts say that their clothing didn't last very long.

Diane continued wandering towards the castle, taking her time in enjoying the memories when suddenly, she came across a very familiar clearing. This was where her and Austin had their first "moment" together. With a small smile upon her lips, Diane leaned against a tree, her eyes were far and they stared into the empty space, her mind wandering into memory lane.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse stopped short entering a clearing. A familiar figure stood there. Someone he had not expected to see... and was unsure if he wanted to. He shrugged. Might as well make another enemy. "Hello, Ms. Levesque. I saw your niece yesterday. She was unhappy to see me, it seemed. Apparently I cheated on someone... though I didn't. That person dumped me. But the past is the past I suppose," Jesse said softly, keeping mainly to the shadows while facing Diane... his ex-girlfriend.

[diane]

Diane heard another distant memory voice that she didn't want to heard for the rest of her life. Turning her head a fraction of an inch towards Jesse. She smirked very slightly. "Jesse," she said with a small nod. Her eyes shifting back to the clearing. Diane preferred not to be disturbed. Of course, Ebony had informed Diane of all the drama yesterday and she had scolded Ebony to be decent to the Professors at the least. She didn't want her neice to receive another detention. As if she didn't have enough of those.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse sighed and gave a soft bow. "Yeah. I suppose I should not have hoped for a warm welcome. I recieve none from anyone else," Jesse replied softly, "i will leave you to your thoughts if that is your wish." Jesse had no smile on his face as he leaned against a tree. Diane had changed. She looked amazing, but what Jesse thought meant little to her. he gave a slow, weak smile. He had hoped she wouldn't be an enemy, but Jesse had no friends. He should know that by now, but he didn't.

[diane]

Diane couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly. Instead, Diane replied normally. "I'm surprised that the dark lord hadn't chosen you to accompany me and the boys to Germany, what did you do wrong?" she said in a flat tone. Her eyebrows raised and her head turned ever so slightly in his direction.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse rolled his eyes. "I've done nothing wrong. I believe the dark lord would prefer me here, and not endanger my cover. Also, he may think there would be tension between us. I am unsure. I have just been contacted again recently. Not long after your neice met me again, actually. Jesse kept a soft smile on his lips.

"Can we be friends, Diane? I really don't need anymore enemies. I'm hoping to run into an enemy right now... and ring her freakin neck," Jesse said softly, the last part darker and softer.

[diane]

Diane smirked, "well you missed out on quite a lot of fun. Fifteen muggles down the drain and a 3 bedroom hotel room between the ten of us," she said with a knowing smirk. Ah, good time, she'd have to remember to contact her new 'buddies' later. Suddenly, she was rather surprised hearing Jesse blurt out that he wanted them to be friends. Diane shook her head slightly to herself. "Jesse, of all the things you could've said, you had to ruin the moment?" she said, turning her side, facing Jesse. Her arms folded across her chest.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse shrugged. "I just became very good at ruining moments I suppose. First relationships, then lives, now moments," Jesse replied, not really paying the first statement any mind. He turned away from her. "I didn't know we were having a moment anyways, Diane. Not that I would mind, but I am positive you would mind, and your boyfriend," Jesse informed her, not turning to face her. He was walking slowly around the clearing.

[diane]

Diane rose an eyebrow as Jesse spoke. "Ah yes, I heard about the unfortunate death of your beloved Black," she said coolly, saying Claire's last name with venom. Suddenly, something Jesse said caught her attention. "Boyfriend? What makes you think that I have a boyfriend?" she asked, quite amused that this had came into Jesse's mind.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse shrugged. "She was not my beloved. I have no beloved, and didn't before her death. The girl I was supposed to be with is a lieing, cheating little brat and if I see her..." Jesse stopped, his voice dark. He calmed himself silently, leaning into the dark against a tree, keeping his eyes from her. "Rumors. I don't really care though. I just figured he would not approve of us having a moment, that I was unaware of, together," Jesse replied coolly, letting his eyes stray back to hers. if only she were in his arms again... he looked away.

[diane]

Diane let out a low chuckle. "Ah, so how does it feel like to be cheated on?" she asked, tilting her head slightly to the left, her eyebrows raised in amusement. "Jesse, we may have had "moments" in our past but that is the past and this is the present, we have no "moments". Of course, I would have ten boyfriends if I made a quick call," she said rolling her eyes at how desperate these men were to get their hands on a women.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse gave a slow sigh. "I did not cheat on you, Diane. I never did, and if i did I don't remember it and it meant nothing," Jesse replied slowly, "I recieved enough of this from your precious neice yesterday. I will not receive it so lightly today. Goodbye Diane." Jesse turned to leave, then thought better and turned towards her. He walked directly past her, careful not to touch her. He didn't walk far, just to the next clearing where he sat down and leaned his head back against a tree, closing his eyes.

[diane]

Diane rolled her eyes, of course he deserved more taunts and punishment but Diane was in a good mood today and she wasn't about to let Jesse ruin it. As he walked past her, she smirked, her body turned with him as he left. A wicked grin crossed her lips while she followed moments after into the next clearing. "So what will you do if I do bring it up? Hit me?" she asked, running a few fingers through her silky brown hair.

[Professor Jesse Roberts]

Jesse sighed. "No, Diane. I won't hit you. I would never do anything to harm you," Jesse replied, his voice soft. he was so glad everyone seemed to be enjoying torturing him. He wasn't into it though. Jesse kept his eyes close, feeling his head pounding. She smelled good... Jesse let his mouth open a fraction and no longer breathed through his nose.
