i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handAlexander approached the door earlier with a hood over his head and his eyes down toward the ground. He pushed open the door and went inside. He browsed the store a bit and made it look he was interested in a few things while in reality he was hiding himself from a few passers outside that he was sure would know his face. He was a wanted man, wanted for the murder of his entire family. Bad things happened all the time in the world and with that thought in mind he was hoping his story had slipped to the back of peoples minds and he had become more than forgotten. It was 3 years ago when it happened. The struggle broke out and his parents, his brother and his two sisters were murdered. He had raised his wand but just a few times since then. He was scared to, he was scared that it would happen again if he did. He had managed to go this long without much conversation at all and without making any actual friends. He knew if he found something then he would eventually lose it and that thought alone tore at his insides more than he would ever admit. If you knew him back in his days as a student he wouldnt seem like the one that cared all that much but he had a heart to and it beat like anyone elses but sadly his only started working after it was far too late.
He had looked over some things and tried his hardest to buy some time while those outside slowly moved along and talked. He couldnt risk running into anyone that he knew or that might know his face from a wanted poster. He had gone through far too much to mess things up now. He would not ever go to Azkaban, never, ever. The sight of a dementor froze him and the thought sent a chill up his spine. He hated it. As more and more people came into the building. Alexander reached down toward his pocket. he placed his hand on the bottom of his wand and he got ready to pull it out. He looked over and around and one or two people gave him a look back. Just the looks of people nearly sent him over the edge. He started to breath a bit heavier as the noise inside increased. He could feel his heart starting to beat faster and faster. Finally he turned and let go of his wand. He would rather run then draw on someone again, at least right now. He turned and moved aorund a shelf as quickly as he could. He gave a quick glance back over his shoulder but when he turned to look ahead of himself again. Someone had moved in his way. Not to block him, but just generally in his way. he ran right into them. At his quick pace he nearly knocked them both over but he was quick and without thinking he grabbed the female to hold her up.
"I am so sorry." He said very nerviously. He soon noticed he had both hands on the female and quickly released her and stood back. His eyes lowered just about as quick and he said nothing else.

While Vasilisa always had her own route to go through when going home or leaving Hogwarts, she didn't go that much often to Hogsmeade. Now she thought different, her days at Hogwarts were long and for once she could use something. While Hogwarts was her new home, she still stayed there in the long hours, until the Library was closed. Once she closes the Library she took her depart to her own apartment. But not today, today was a rough day with many talking students. She loved the job but some students never learned to respect the books she took so much care for. She grabbed her coat as the wind was slowly moving around the Hogwarts grounds. There it was the long big gate that stopped everyone from to use magic around Hogwarts. A shield that was going to be powerful to stop any dark magic, or maybe not. Sooner or later Hogwarts was going to be taken over and she would have to fight. To fight for the children, one thing she was going to fear. There she was opening the gate and closing them behind her as she apparated away. A few minutes later she poofed into Hogsmeade as she saw a few ministry workers around. She knew there were a few wanted people but seeing as the aurors were so close here, it must mean they find a dark wizard. While she never wanted to find out who it was, she quickly pulled her cloak closer as she walked further to the The three Broomsticks. A great place to hang out, take a drink and then after that getting back to her home. But being there for a few minutes, something different happened. While walking around there a guy bumped into her, and soon she was caught by him. Feeling his both hands on her body, she blushed a bit as she heard his voice. Trying to see his face she saw how cute he was. "Uhm no problem. You seem like you are in a hurry."She said as she grabbed his face, pulling it up to look into his eyes.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handThe tips of her fingers were warm. The last time he had actually been touched was by the man that tried to steal from him a few months ago. Alexander had nearly strangled the man to death with his bare hands before finally coming to his senses and running away. His eyes began to shut but he brought himself together and pulled away from her. He turned his head a bit to escape her soft fingers. The lack of contact he had with people since what happened would be a weakness. He could easily see that now. He put both hands into his pockets, one of them went over his wand, which he wrapped two fingers around while still holding into inside his pocket.
"I just.. i don't want to be late." He said as he moved around a bit. He said he had somewhere to go but he didnt go anywhere when he said it. Instead he stood there and dropped his eyes to the floor and then nervously raised them up again to look at her, before lowering them again.
Quite the sight but it was a thought he tried to push to the back of his mind. it couldn't happen. He couldn't make friends, he couldn't talk to people. it would cost him. he'd end up in azkaban, he'd feel the kiss of a dementor. A shiver went right up his spine again and he jerked a bit and looked back very quickly. He saw nothing. He was clearly nervous about something, that much was obvious. He needed to leave now and just go back to stealing food when he could so he could survive but for some reason when he looked toward the door he just couldnt make a move for it. Before long he turned back to her.
"i mean.. i dont want to be seen by some friends. they have been playing some weird jokes lately and if they see me. I'll get included and i really just dont have time for all that right now." The words came out as easily as breathing. it was like he had someone lying for him.
He eased one hand out of his pocket and used it to brush through his hair as he looked at her. As his fingers moved through his brown hair they knocked his hood down and made it quite a lot easier to see his face now. He had oddly well kept hair for someone in his position but above all of his features his eyes were the easiest to notice, they had such an odd, one in a million kind of color to them.

Vasilisa looked at the man that was standing in front of him. While she might have lost her life out there she could see he didn't feel comfortable about her touching him. She could read it from him, and she didn't have to be a Staff member to know that. She was one of those people that lied too. One that was a good against her husband but not to the rest of the people she cared so much about. While looking at the person that was having a shiver. "Well bumping into someone, and not wanting to be late sure makes sense."She said a bit sarcastic. She could see so much from him that he was lieing. "Well how about I invite you over to my place, your friends won't find you, and we can have a drink. Nothing wrong, but I bumped into you, so I at least should give you something to help you."She said. While the person she bumped to was a stranger, she thought he could trust him. Trust him enough to invite him over and protect him from his "friends". While she saw his hood falling down, she could see the tall dark stranger. A good looking person that has his hair in shape but most important the eyes. The eyes had something special inside of them, something that she hasn't seen much. "So shall we go, or are you afraid that I bite?"She asked giving a small grin and a wink to him. She turned around to look at him, and the many wizards around the three broomsticks. They were all slowly getting drunk, as it was on a friday. The weekends were getting near and she knew that many went out for a drink like that. The many wizards that past by the three broomsticks were also aurors, but they never entered. They just looked inside and then walk further, as she just stared at one of them. She gave a smile to him, and the person that left. It was one of her family. Her family was big and soon they all were going to get married. One sooner then the other but 3 of her sisters already had a marriage. Vasilisa was the first, then came Cinderella and now her younger sister. She was with one of the Flints. His brother worked at Hogwarts giving Charms and Merida that married Brian worked at the Ministry, and so she knew a few people there.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handThe offer instantly set off a million red flags in his head but he stood there with a blank expression on his face to hide anything he might be thinking. He pretended to think about it for a moment and act a bit nervous. He cracked a small smile, something he hadn't done in ages but it was a fake one so it didnt matter all that much. Finally, after a bit of thinking and nervously looking around to make sure no one had noticed who he was, He nodded his head and looked at Lisa. She had gorgeous eyes. He shook his head, it looked normal but he was trying to force the thought of just how pretty her eyes were from his mind.
"Sounds like a blast. I'm Alex, by the way. " He said softly. He didn't offer a hand shake or anything to her because that would of required him to remove his hand from his wand. He always used his right hand, never his left, it was weaker.
He smiled at her again, Another fake one but thos time he looked her over. He registered everything he could about her in his brain. Her weight, height, how fast she could run, her actually power with magic, where her wand was, even the length of her hair. He didn't survive on the run this long by instantly trusting someone. He was way to cautious for that but he'd go with her regardless simply because he could get something out of it. He wasn't sure what she would have at her place but he could more than likely take quite a bit after she had a drink or two in her and he'd be gone before she knew it.

She gave a smile as she looked at him. Oh did he knew what she was or what she was going through at the time. She did thought she knew he from something, but she really wasn't sure what it was. She was just being nice to him, and that probably was good enough for that. So she gave a smile as she put a hand on his shoulder. "Shall we go then?"She said. She then turned around on her heels, as she looked at the door. "Nice to meet you Alex, btw my name is Vasilisa, but most people just call me Lisa."She said as she then walked over to the door. She opened it as she looked outside. There weren't any ministry officers anymore, so that was probably good. It meant they either had the person they wanted or they couldn't find the person they needed. All on all she waited for Alex to join her as she hold his shoulder. "Hold on."She said. She didn't want to lose him while apparating, so she pulled a arm around his body, as she then poofed away with him. A few minutes later they were standing in her apartment. "Well it might not be much, but I hope it is good enough."She said as she looked at him. She still noticed she had her arm around his body, as she let him go walking over to the kitchen. Grabbing a few drinks, as she then walked back. "Here."She said as she gave him a drink. She looked at his eyes as they were pretty. His body looked great too, and he was probably around the age of 20. He was young yes, but she could also see he trained a lot, else he wouldn't had such body.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handAlexander happily took the drink from Lisa. He looked at it for a moment and then sat it down. He came up to her and got in real close. He reached and slipped her drink from her hand and placed it down beside his. He looked at her eyes. Such big beautiful eyes they were. He gave her a look, that kind of look that you give someone when you're really into them and then suddenly it all vanished. He reached up and grabbed her by the throat and shoved her back against the wall. He raised his other hand, which now held his wand and pressed the tip of the wooden weapon against her throat.
"Who are you?!" He shouted at her as he looked around the room.
Hr thought this was some kind of trap. It seemed to obvious. Some random pretty girl that caught his eye just wanted him to come back to her place for a drink. He wasn't that lucky. yes he was good looking and all but he couldn't be so lucky. Today was one of those days where he really needed someone, where he came to regret some of the times in school when he was a total dick to other students and people that could of turned out to be his friends so it all made him very paranoid.
"How many people know i am here?!" He shouted at her again as he held a tight grip on her throat with one hand and pressed his wand into the side of her neck with the other. She wasn't bad, she wasn't trying to hurt him or get him caught but he didn't know that, so he had to be this way.

Everything changed when they both went into her apartment. While he was good looking something inside him felt like he snapped. His wand aimed at her and she was pulled against the wall. Feeling like she was getting choked. Her eyes didn't even blink nor tears that would by someone, she just stared at him with her pretty eyes. "I.... I am Vasilisa like I said."Trying to breath true the air that was getting gone from her. She looked at him as she grabbed his face pulling him closer. "I am all..... alone... here.... Librarian at... Hogwarts..."She said. She looked at his wand and then back to his face as she pulled him closer. She didn't know how this was going to end but she sure wanted to know what and why he was doing this. "If you don't .... trust me... why did you come..."She said. "End it."She said as she closed her eyes. She wasn't afraid of death anymore. She seen death in her husband. The one she married to. He was a great person for her parents, but she never trusted him and she was right. After she married him the guy beat her many times, she still got a few bruises that she hides, and so was the ring she once had around her finger. She then looked at him. "You are... a pretty... boy."She said as she pulled him closer ending it with a kiss on his cheek as she closed her eyes, waiting what was going to happen next.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handSomething about all of that just grabbed him and wouldn't let go. How could he be dumb enough to let her do that? The second she moved he should have killed her but he didnt. Was he getting slow, did he really not see her moving toward him. Regardless of how or why it happened, it did. Alexander moved his wand through his fingers and slid both hands onto Lisa's face. He kept her in close as they kissed. Her lips were soft. He bit down on her bottom lip for just a moment before it finally hit him. He opened his eyes that were for some reason shut by the kiss and he snapped away from her. He stepped back a good six feet and raised his wand. He pointed it directly at her and tried to find something to say but he kept fumbling with his words. After a moment he just stopped. He kept his eyes on Lisa and took a deep breath before he eventually forced a few words out.
"What the hell was that?" He shouted as he looked at her. His grip on his wand was as tight as ever now. He wasn't sure of what to make of this situation at all. He thought she was trying to trick him but if she was then why would she kiss him. Was she sick, was this a game to her, did she like to play with her victims before turning them over? He shook his head a bit and tried to keep from thinking about how she kissed him, how it felt or how he wanted to do it again. He used the hand that didnt hold his wand and pressed his palm against his forehead. He shouted at nothing and then quickly bent down to one knee. He lowered his wand.
"I can't believe i was so stupid. I should have run, I should have run, I should have run!" He ran through a bunch of thoughts in his mind and it came to him that if this was a trap then a dementor could be anywhere, one could be coming to get him right now.
He just sort of locked up. He put both of his arms over his head and leaned down. He pressed his forehead into the floor and shouted again.

Vasilisa saw everything change into him. The kiss that changed everything inside of him. He turned into a scared boy, confused. She felt the kiss and it was good. His lips were soft, and yet they gave something extra to her. Something that she enjoyed very much. While looking at him she bit his underlip and she felt his bite too. She saw him then changing. He left the kiss as he took a few steps backwards. She wasn't sure what was going to happen but they both felt it, that was for sure. She saw him raising his wand as he looked at him. She listened to his words as she took a deep breath. "They call it kissing. Something we both felt was good Alex."She said as she stood there not looking away from him. She had her wand in her pocket but she wasn't going to do anything yet with it. She just wanted to be sure he was going to be okay. She then saw him getting to one knee as she heard his words. She saw him lowering his wand, as this was the chance. The chance to take him and break him. As quickly as she could, she run to him grabbing his wand and disarming him. She took his wand as she throw it to the kitchen. She grabbed him as she pulled him up, pulling him closer. Walking over to the couch as she took him with her. Pulling him on her lap. "Alex this is not a joke, you are safe here trust me."She said as she kissed his lips again.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handThis was one of those things that he would never tell anyone about. Alexander thought he was a fantastic wizard yet he somehow managed to get himself distracted and taken advantage of all in like a sixty second window. He needed to redo his first year at hogwarts. As Lisa kissed him he tried his best to resist but he couldn't. It was something about those lips, those eyes. Finally though, after a moment of doing absolutely nothing to stop himself from kissing her. He placed his hands on the back of the couch and pushed away.
"Trust you? How could i trust you? We barely know each other." He said that and for some reason he snuck another kiss in there. He leaned in and pressed his lips to hers. He ran his fingers along the side of her face and then quickly pulled away again.
"I mean.. wait.. Did you poison me? Is this a potion? Am i under a spell?" He asked a couple of questions and then kissed her again. Perhaps it had just been so long since he had been around a female, that's proably exactly what it was. Either way, he was going to have a serious talk with himself, just not right now, of course.
The thought of trouble managed to sneak from his mind for a moment. it was something that hadn't happened for a very long time. For three years now he had spent every night thinking it was going to be his last as a free man. It was nice to actually have something, if even for a moment, that removed the worry from around him. He would surely regret this entire thing by the time it was over but he just couldnt let himself think about it right now.

Everything felt so right in sixty seconds. For once she wasn't the girl that feared her life. She wasn't the girl for once that was looking around running away from her husband or even getting beaten up. This time she was stronger and she was slowly getting better with this. The kissing felt like everything was good between them, they just met and they still felt like they were married for over 10 years. It just was and felt so good until he pushed away. Her eyes following every moment he did as she smiled. "If you didn't trust me, then why did you came with me, why don't you stop kissing me. Trust is showing your weakness to both, and that is what is happening right now Alex, you can't deny that."She said as she felt the kiss again from him. Her lips pressing on his. She then heard his questions. "I am not a veela, nor one that potions or put you under a love spell. You love here inside."She said as she put a hand on his heart. She put a arm around him as she pulled him closer. "You can't deny what you feel, nor can I what I feel for you."She said as she stood up taking off his shirt. He had a young and good body, as she put his hands on his chest. It felt so good, and while she was a divorced woman, she didn't mind a single moment that happened with her and Alex. The kisses were all good enough.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my hand"Wait." He said as he gently put both hands on her arms. He pulled her arms away from him and stood up as quickly as he could and took several steps back. He knew where his wand was but he didnt need it, He didnt believe this was a trick anymore but he still wanted it.
Alex took a deep breath and brought both hands to rest on his hips. He lowered his eyes and looked down for a moment. What exactly was going on? He couldnt make anything out of this. This was strange and it was unlike who he had become. He moved slowly but did he move. He went across the room and to the kitchen. He picked up his wand and put it into his pocket. As he stood up straight again he sighed, he couldn't go, he knew that much but he also couldnt go through with his original plan either. He couldn't steal from her. He honestly thought she seemed like someone who was hurt and wanted someone to care about her. Damn feelings, damn the ability to even remotely care about someone. Alex came back to the couch, he stood just in front of it.
"How about..." He reached and took up the drinks from earlier. His in his right hand and hers in his left, which he extended toward the female. "the drinks and maybe a little story about our selves?" What else could he do? He wanted to leave but at the same time he didnt want too. He knew he should but this could be a safe place that would actually give him his first good nights sleep in years. He could be safe for once and actually have good dreams.

Vasilisa looked at him and she knew she was going to far, but h knew it too. They just met and they were still strangers. Something that wasn't going to change anything about this situation. While she wanted to flee her old life, this wasn't the right way. She knew that and could feel that it wasn't right. She looked at him as she saw him walking away. Walking away to the kitchen to grab the wand. She then saw him walking back with the few drinks as he gave one to her. She took it as she took a sip of it. She knew this was something better to first talk then to go further about this all. "I think that is the best and a good way to start."She said as she took another sip. Knowing that she didn't drink any alcohol. She never liked it, so she never drank it. She looked at him once again as she gave a smile. "Before you want to leave, I want you to offer to stay the night. Get some rest around here, and even if you want you can stay in this apartment. It isn't much, but I can sleep on the couch, and you can sleep in the two-sized bed."She said as she gave a smile. "Either way I am Vasilisa Tchaikovsky but everyone calls me Lisa."She said as she looked into his eyes.

i'll stand at the gates of hell with a glass of ice water in my handAlexander wasn't going to begin to share his life and why he was so nervous and on edge about things but he would certainly talk to her. He ran his fingers over his lips briefly before speaking. She was very nice to him, what she was offering and all. "Thank you, Lisa. I really appreciate it and i wont have you sleeping on a couch, especially in your own home, not happening. Sleep in your bed and sleep well because i rarely sleep that much at all. I am kind of stuck with an odd inability to sleep. I am always looking over my shoulder and wondering whats behind me. It makes sleeping difficult."He took a seat on the floor in front of the couch and he looked at her. He was being so stupid. So many years on the run and he ended up here as quickly as you could snap your fingers. He was insanely lucky that she wasn't one of the people looking for him because if she were he would be spending some time in Azkaban. This was all the proof he needed, this told him that he still had a lot to learn. He needed to find someone that could make him better, someone that could show him how to be a bit smarter about things and how to protect himself. He was a good wizard but he was letting his wants and needs get in the way of his judgement. Things like this would lead to his downfall if he didnt change them. "Call me Alex by the way. I've had plenty of names but that's my preference. Can't really say that i wanna be known as Strife. Something about that just doesn't have a ring to it." He laughed a bit but he was still nervous and unsure. He would give a glance in a random direction every now and again. It was something that wouldn't change until he felt as though he never had to worry again.
