Don't kid yourself and don't fool yourself

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

Ever since Kit had ruined his hair, Chris hadn't ventured out of Billie and Leo's house in Placidus Village. As punishment for using silver cuffs while she was in werewolf form, Kit had died Chris's hair blond, with pink stripes - it looked simply horrible! Thankfully it was half term, and Chris had no need to go to Hogwarts. For the past few days Chris had helped to look after the twins by; feeding them, changing them, winding them, and even cooking lunch for the adults. It was all very tiring, but it was better than being laughed at by some Slytherins.

But things just had to change. Sitting around the house could get very depressing. Billie had forced Chris out of the house, claiming that he would need to go out some time anyway. It was going to take a long time for Chris's hair to change back to jet black. Kit, Billie and Leo refused to change it back, and it was extremely difficult to preform a color changing charm on your own hair.

Chris sat on top of one the bench tables. There was a bench to sit on, but Chris preferred to rest his feet on that, and besides you could see more when sat on the table top. He let out a loud sigh. The first person too see this was going to laugh their head off. People where going to think that Chris was gay. Straight men didn't often have pink highlights.

[Rhys Thompson]

Rhys was walking around, yet again twirling his wand, it had become a habit for him since returning to Hogwarts. Part of his jet black and blonde hair was flipping over one of his eyes, not allot of hair though. He had decided to come to the Courtyard to see if there was any first years he could target, not long ago he had targeted Jake Newman, but the little twerp had gotten away from him before Rhys could try out a spell on him.

He spotted somebody up ahead, only by the bright coloured hair. It was Christopher Anthony Brian, from his house, the one who hung around with the Gryffindors and Billie Joe. Rhys couldn't help but laugh at Chris's hair. ''Nice hair Brian, when did you get the urge to change the colour, your not changing gender are you''he teased, his wand was still out just incase, he knew what Chris's temper was like, ''I thought black was your thing?, I never thought you'd turn your back on the colour.''

[Estelle Way]

Estelle was wearing some black cargo trousers, an Aiden T.shirt and her Slytherin robes and cloak. As she walked through the Courtyard, she heard one voice, it was deep and male, she reconised it, it was Rhys. She had taken to hanging around with him since they had both joined the Death Eaters. She walked towards Rhys Voice, when she got there, she reconised the other person instantly, it was Chris. ''What do we have here then''she said walking to stand beside Rhys, who seemed to have him wand in his hand.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

Even though Chris had been sitting on the table for a better view, he had been staring down at the grass since he had climbed up onto the table. His head jolted up at the deep voice that he just spoke. Chris gathered that the male was speaking to him, as the courtyard was empty.

Angrily Chris leaped down from the table, and grabbed his wand from his pocket. Unfortunately Chris had an extremely short temper, and wasn't going to be laughed at by Rhys Thompson. He had seen that idiot hanging around with his ex-girlfriend Estelle, and Chris didn't like him.
"It was a dare you prat!" Spat Chris, with his wand arm outstretched. He was ready for any attack this death eater threw at him.

The voice of Estelle made Chris's body freeze. He still fancied here a little bit, and was jealous if he found any other boy hanging around with her.
"Your new boyfriend can't help himself,"Chris growled. "The stupid emo can't resist the urge to cause an argument with everyone that walks past," he added.

[Rhys Thompson]

Rhys had his own temper, and he wasn't going to take Chris's temper anymore. Rhys looked round as Estelle walked to stand beside him. ''Somebody who looks like he wants a change of Gender''he said towards Estelle. When Chris mentioned about Rhys being Estelle's new boyfriend, he nearly let out a snort. ''Oh, so your calling me the Emo, when you where the one just sitting there looking very depressed''he growled back at Chris. ''Also Brian, me and Estelle are just friends, keeping an eye on eachothers backs''.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

"Yeah somone like you needs a gender change!" Yelled a frustrated Chris. His wand was still pointing at Rhys. You could never trust a death eater, Chris had learned that many times before. He had been twice been attacked by evil death eaters - once by Alana and once by Billie's step sister Rennie Hardings.
"You don't have to be an emo to be depressed!", he growled at the stupid emo. Chris was trying to keep his temper in, by not attacking first, but it was proving pretty hard, espeshlly when Rhys kept insulting Chris.
"Yeah whatever. You don't need to lie. I am glad i dumped that weakling", lied Chris. Sometimes he was glad that he wasn't with Estelle, but other times he wished that he would have treated her better, and not hung around with Billie 24/7.

[Estelle Way]

When Chris mentioned about Rhys being her new boyfriend, Estelle ddi one thing in which she didn't have to use magic for. She walked up to Chris and slapped him hard across the face. When he called her a weakling her wand was out and against his neck. Estelle was dangerous when she was angry.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

Even with his wand held out, Estelle's punch was too quick for Chris to block with magic or his fists. It was embracing walking around with blonde hair with pink streaks, but it was even more embracing being punched by his ex-girlfriend. Chris clutched his painful sore face immediately after being punched. Estelle's punch was pretty strong, and a red mark was left on his face.

Chris became extremely nervous as the wand was pointed at his neck. He had been lucky to escape the last two attacks alive, but this time the Death Eaters might not be feeling so kind. Yet again Chris's big mouth had gotten him into a sticky situation.
"Ok i lied!", screamed Chris glaring into Estelle's eyes. It brought back memories from when they had been together. His ex-girlfriend was extremely pretty.
"I do did love you, and i still do. You must still cared for me, or you wouldn't have just slapped me when i said i never loved you!", Chris yelled, with his left hand still clutching his cheek.

[Estelle Way]

''As if thats true, your just trying to get yourself out of trouble again''she muttered stepping back, but flicking her wand once she aimed the disarming spell at Chris, he was distracted, he'd never see the spell coming. Estelle had changed so much lately, people often said she looked like the Gossip person ALexis Bay, she now had red,yellow and orange hair all mixed together and her skin was paler and she had a new type of clothing style compared to her old style.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

"It's true! I do still fancy you, but your attitude has changed allot since i went out with you!", replied Chris. His wand flew out of his hand, and landed in a nearby bush as the expelliarmus spell hit Chris, but he didn't care. Maybe there was a way of sorting this out without his wand.

Estelle had changed quite a bit since she had been going out with Chris. Her hair was no longer black, but now dyed too a bright orange, which reminded Chris of carrots. He preferred Estelle's new style of hair, as it seemed to suit her more.
"I really like your new hair. It's allot better than my new style!", joked Chris, trying to stay away from the argument.

((XP Writers block arghhh))

[Estelle Way]

She rolled her eyes, ''Don't stray from the topic, you used me and you know it, you only used me for a date to the prom because Leo had asked Billie already''she growled at him. She stepped back and collected Chris's wand, ''If you pocket your wand, i will pocket mine and Rhys will his, then we're all even''she said giving in and handing Chris his wand back. Estelle had mixed emotions at the moment, she wanted to hurt Chris really bad, but the other half of her wanted to hug him.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

Chris sighed. There was a little bit of truth in what Estelle said. He had gone out with her just for the summer prom, because Chris had been rejected by Billie for Leo. "Maybe at first when i was still angry with Leo, yeah maybe i did use you a little, but i grew to love you and i still do!" Explained Chris.

He took the wand from Estelle, and put it into the back pocket of his skinny black jeans. "I'm sorry if i neglected you, and right now i am really regretting what i did", responded Chris. Even though Estelle was now a death eater, Chris still seemed to have allot of trust for her. He regretted the mistakes he had made , and wished deep down that he was still back with Estelle.

[Estelle Way]

(( I got a message from Rhys that he is stepping out of this rp, as he's too busy to rp in it, he isn't gonna post anymore, so we'll just say Rhys went))

Estelle put her wand into her robes. ''Chris, erm, Rhys is my cousin''she said smirking, one that she hadn't used for ages, i twas very rare for her to smirk or laugh to others she didn't get along with anymore. ''Its gonna take more than words to get back on my good side''. ''But i suppose we can still just be friends''she said holding out her hand to be shaken. Hopefully Chris remembered not ot get on her bad side again, as she was capable of many things, Rhys wouldn't fail not to help if he did put her into bother.

[Christopher Anthony Brian]

Chris observed Estelle also putting her wand away. It didn't seem to shock Chris that she was still a trustworthy girl. Despite the different hair color, and the different style of clothes it was still the same Estelle underneath it all. "Oh, your cousin, yes i knew that! I just erm..", replied an embarrassed Chris. His face was starting to turn an extremely bright shade of red, but he still managed to give a smile back to his ex-girlfriend Estelle.

He noticed that Estelle's cousin Rhys had long ago snuck away from their discussion, but Chris just ignored this. He wasn't practiculary fond of Rhys anyway. "Give it a week and we'll be back together,"he winked. Chris took the hand which Estelle had offered to him, and he shook it. Chris seemed to feel a sort of strong bond as he shook Estelle's hand.

[Estelle Way]

Estelle rolled her eyes ''Of course you did''she laughed, it was only a small laugh though. Estelle looked around, Rhys had gone and left her with Chris, she'd find him later and slap him round the head for this. ''So you think''she thought. Haha, it was funny to watch Chris blush, but she didn't laugh out loud.
