Looking at the Stars(EmmaLee)

[Hermione Granger]

Hermione Granger couldn't sleep that night when it has only been around a total of three days since they have been back at the school for their fourth year. She looked around her year's dormitory before slipping out of her bed sheets wearing her black shorts and a red tank top before throwing on her pink robe and her matching pink slippers. She moved her brown hair as she looked around the room to make sure she didn't wake any of them up. Hermione then grabbed her wand before pocketing it and walking out of the dormitory.

She walked down the spiral staircase and into the common room. She walked out of the common room as she was looking around to make sure no one was awake since she didn't really want to be answering any questions about why she wasn't in bed. Mione opened up the door leading out of Gryffindor Tower. When the Fat Lay portrait asked her where she was going at this late hour she just said that she was going on for a walk which wasn't a lie. As she was walking around the caste though thinking about her sudden interest in her same gender since she was thirteen but she still loved looking at guys though. She didn't notice that she was in the Astronomy tower until the cool air hit her face.

She looked around and smiled as she couldn't believe that her feet would lead her here. Oh well she thought as she went over to lay her arms on the cold gray banister as she was looking up at the stairs. She was so engrossed in doing that she didn't know someone else was up here with her either.

Orange fingernails tapped upon the railing of the stairs as Emma slowly climbed them in her current dazed state. The young girl had one bad habit, sleep walking. Often she would do this whenever something was on her mind or for the first few days at Hogwarts. It was just the new scene always made her mind wander and desire to learn what was new about her home away from home. So in the sense of adventure, her body would travel at night, often times getting her into trouble. Luckily by now, most of the teachers knew about Emma's wonderful condition and simply escorted her slowly back to bed. Having happened last night, she hoped that her need to adventure was done, but she was wrong as her bare feet slapped against the cold stone as she climbed up the stairs within the astronomy tower now. For one to even believe she started off in the dungeons, where the Hufflepuff dorms are, no one would have imagined she would have gotten this far without someone noticing. Perhaps it was luck or maybe her mind was truly getting that good at avoiding the teachers? No matter what it was, she trotted up into towards the tower in nothing more than her elegant white nightgown that hung loose around her body and hugged her shoulders with the flower designs etched into the clothing.

When the cold air greeted her legs, she shivered and her chocolate eyes began to open, waking her from the slumber as she quickly realized what she had done. By that time though, it was too late and she was in the astronomy tower, staring at Hermione who was also up here. Perking her fine black brow, she began to wonder if this was a dream or reality, but the chill of another wind grazing across her skin reminded her this was real. Adjusting her long black locks of hair, she made sure to cover up the shaved sides of her head as she slowly jaunted up behind Hermione who seemed to be looking out at the world below at the moment. Practically everyone knew what Emma was, she rarely kept quiet about her affection towards other women, so it wasn't much of a surprise that Emma didn't really have many friends that were girls, mostly guys who were not interested in girls. Though Emma wouldn't dare complain, it was just a tad annoying at times, but here was Hermione, one of the few that Emma believed wouldn't care much about that sort of thing. Gryffindors always did seem to be rather open minded compared to the others after all.

Trotting up beside Granger, Emma spoke softly, "What are you doing out this late?" she queried and decided to quickly answer that question for herself, "As for me, I was actually sleep walking, only woke up from the cold a few moments ago. Thought I would have been up sooner since my feet are practically frozen," she giggled as she looked over to Granger. To be honest, she wasn't that overly cold, just colder than what she would honestly prefer.

[Hermione Granger]

Hermione continued on looking at the stars that were over here that night. She love coming up here to think sometimes though Mione didn't know why she went there when she could easily be sleeping in her bed or at least reading a book. She always got lost looking at the stars which is one of the reasons why she loved coming up to the Astronomy tower. Also the only reason she did it also was because it was never that far away from the Gryffindor common room really. Some people think that she is made when she says that she goes to this tower sometimes during the night to just look at the stars. She didn't really care with what they say especially since she is use to the way that the Slytherins treat her and her two other friends, Harry and Ron.

She sighed as she decided to look down and see what was happening down in the grounds. When she changed the position of her head she heard a girl say "What are you doing out this late?" When she was going to answer she heard her say "As for me, I was actually sleep walking, only woke up from the cold a few moments ago. Thought I would have been up sooner since my feet are practically frozen," Moine looked at her and noticed that she was EmmaLee the girl that was opened about her gay sexuality and she wasn't since she didn't know what people would do to her especially Malfoy and Parkinson. She said "Oh couldn't sleep so I decided to come here and look at the stars." She smiled at McReynolds as she couldn't help her eyes looking over at the girls body.

She scolded her self in her head for doing that since it wasn't nice so she turned her gaze back to the stars as she started to look for the Dippers.

Diverting her eyes out towards the sky above, Emma couldn't help but stare at those twinkling lights that danced within the sky above. They were like a surreal painting that called out to her and if Emma didn't know any better, she would swear she could reach out and touch those mystical lights in the sky. But she couldn't, so they twinkled within the sky and taunted any who dare thought like Emma as they sat far out of reach upon that dark canvas known as night. Some reason, Emma had to believe it was around midnight, but she couldn't tell for sure since there were little to no signs of time during the night. It wasn't like in the day where the sun told you about what time it was. No, at night you had only the moon and the stars and they rarely spoke of time. Hearing Hermione's words grace her ears, Emma turned her attention back towards the Gryffindor girl and gave a slight frown. 'She couldn't sleep? A pretty girl like herself shouldn't ever have bad dreams or rough nights,' Em couldn't help but think to herself as she noticed Hermione staring, even if it were only for a moment. In idle thought, Emma had to stare at herself too, and she found herself unable to blame Hermione for looking. There wasn't much between Emma and the cold air around besides her white nightgown and the underwear beneath. Staring at her toes, Emma couldn't help but tilt her head as she gave them a wiggle and smiled brightly before realizing she should say something.

Bringing her attention back up, she looked towards Hermione and gave her a gentle nudge with her shoulder, "Couldn't sleep? Perhaps all you need is a warm body to keep you company or just something similar. I tend to use a body pillow whenever I can. They are simply wonderful," she stated with a bright smile crossing her lips. Sadly, Emma lacked her large pillow this year since she had forgotten to pack it. Only reason for that was because she had to deal with her brother who was being a douche and kept her mind busy with stupid things. Plus, she was helping her little sister get ready for Hogwarts too! The little girl was so scared and fragile, it was quite cute.

Shaking herself back into the present time, Emma turned her gaze out towards the sky then instinctively looked down. A shudder came to her as she found herself staring far down at the ground. It was so far off, but she wasn't really afraid of it, simply uncomfortable about the facts provided. To get her mind off it however, she focused her gaze and full attention onto Hermione once more, "Is this the first night you haven't been able to sleep very well on or just yet another this year?" she decided to question, "I mean, if it is reoccurring, you may need to do some relaxation techniques before bed to help you sleep better."
