Thinking. God. The horror! Lovely Knight had never been one to dwell on the past or being calm enough to sit down and just let her mind wander, she'd always been too hyper and figdety. Yet here she was in the Room of Requirement, sulking, because of a series of things that had gone horrible right in the last little while.

The Halloween Ball had been a brilliant catastrophe; though had started out fun with handcuffing two unsuspecting individuals together. Everything had worked out according to plan, bringing Fred as her date, upseting James... So if things had gone as planned why did she feel so completely and utterly horrible? Repulsive. Monstrous. Kiniving? She'd succeeded in getting a reaction out of the likes of James Potter but at the cost of sabotaging his and Fred's relationship? If her fellow Gryffindors didn't already despise her enough for the so-called cheating incident that had happened back when she had been dating James... they would now. It was unreal how much of an influence he was to their House...

What was even more frightening to her was the fact that Fred Weasley was getting under her skin a lot more than he should be. She actually felt guilty for using him the way she had and it was a fact that the pink haired girl NEVER felt remorse over the actions she'd comitted to. Ever. And to top everything off? She was now the newest employee of Scores and the girl couldn't be sure if she should be happy about having a job and receiving such a generous amount of payment from Silas Rosier or if she should be ashamed of herself. She was known for being promiscuous on occasion... but a complete and total whore? She'd like to think she wasn't. This would probably only end badly for her in the end...

"Fuck." She grumbled under her breath and leaned her head against the torso of the sewing mannequin she was working on. She had been constructing an outfit before her mind had gone haywire on her. She needed something to distract her, someone, and she knew exactly who she wanted to see at this point.

Toby fucking Steele.

The past few weeks had been a mad dash of absolute insanity. It'd been at least a few long days since he'd seen his best friend. Toby had been so self absorbed at the Halloween ball that he hadn't even seen Lovely there either. It seemed that lately, they both had their own huge plethora of problems to deal with and it had been becoming increasingly harder and harder to catch each other alone.

Running his hand through his hair, Toby rounded the corner into the hallway that hosted the Room of Requirement. It had very quickly become a place of escape for him.. ever since he'd taken Ryan Robins in there and they'd had a quick session. Most of the time, when Toby wanted to get away from the mad gabbing lips that was Hogwarts gossip, he came to the requirement room. Sighing, he crossed in front of it a few times, thinking simply of a place to relax and escape from harsh eyes, ears, and lips.

As the door to the room formed and it shifted open, Toby was a bit surprised to see a mass of cotton candy pink hair clashing up against a sewing mannequin. This was the first time that Toby had ever walked in on someone already occupying the room. He took a moment to allow his eyes to adjust behind those thick rimmed glasses, recognizing that unique color as belonging to Lovely herself. Oh, the irony.

With a soft sigh, Toby stepped forward into the room as the door closed gently behind him. Slipping his tongue forth, he ran it absently along the metal of his labret piercing. "Love, I didn't expect to see you in here.." But he was glad she was here. It'd been entirely too long since their last heart to heart and Toby had begun to genuinely miss them.. especially since there was nothing odd attached to their friendship, like threatening emotions of less than platonic love.

Slowly, Toby began to cross the large room, stopping when he got in front of Lovely. He reached out and touched her shoulder gently, brown eyes glancing down at her pale face. She looked troubled, as troubled as he felt. He knew that she was having problems with a certain Potter/Weasley family and it was probably what was bothering her. After a few moments, his eyes flickered across to the outfit and he smirked. "Who's that for?"

(OOC: I totally ignored the fact that the RoR doesn't open when someone's already in it. >>)

She stiffened when she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder, not realizing who it was until his voice greeted her. Toby! Just who she longed to see! She'd been so wrapped up in her thoughts that she hadn't even noticed he'd entered the room. With a sigh of relief she swung around and enveloped him in a bone-crushing hug; the way she typically greeted everyone, but there was a peculiar film of moisture in her blue eyes that she hid in his chest. "I missed you!" She exclaimed, her voice muffled in his chest. It took her a moment to compose herself but when she did she looked completely chipper and happy; even grinning widely when Toby inquired about her latest creation.

"That is for you! Is it not sexy?" She asked, her eyes daring him to say no. Lovely did have an impeccable niche for making clothes and fashion; even if she was a bit extravagant with her own clothing. It definitely made a statement, whatever she wore. She knew Toby liked the bolder choices of clothing too but this one had been toned down slightly; vintage in more neutral shades of color as opposed to bright and brilliant. (Outfit) She'd even constructed a fedora for him to wear and now was plucking the thing off the mannequin placing it on Toby's head. "You like?"
