Solitaire couldn't believe that this was the only day in the history of her time at Hogwarts that both of her friends had something else to do. When had they ever had time away from each other, even if the other two were both Gryffindors. That had never mattered. Taire had never been seperated from at least one of her two friends, even though Nadine and Dare tended to fight like brothers and sisters often do. What was she to do with herself. She wouldn't dare go shopping alone, oh no, that was a torture that she had to put Nadine through every other weekend, when the two of them would go to Hogwarts. Taire couldn't wait until the summer, when she was going to have Nadine spend the summer with her. She would take her to all the muggle fashion shops and show Nadine where she got all of her clothes from. Taire was always wearing something wild and frivulous. Today's outfit was no different. Today, Taire was sporting what would possibly be one of her favorite outfits. Her black leather racing pants, a skimpy pink tank top, her favorite black combat boots ( as the muggles called them) and her Hogwarts sweater. Taire couldn't help but to feel as comfortable as she did at the moment, it was the clothes that did it to her.
Walking through the halls, she debated what she would do after classes that day. "Read a book, nah done that. Design a new car, always a fun fall back, but not in the mood today. Mope around the halls and wait for one of them to get done with whatever, nah, not my style. I know, I'll go see how the house-elves are doing." Taire said to herself, knowing that everyone was looking at her. She never minded talking outloud to herself. So what if the others looked at her like she was crazy, they already began thinking that the moment they found out that she drove muggle race cars. Most had wanted to know what in the name of Merlin was a muggle race care like. Taire had laughed as she described it to them all with such a passion that it almost made her feel as if she were behind the steering wheel all over again. Suddenly Taire slipped into a day dream, taking her back to her last race, the one that nearly freaked Darien out. Taire was sure that he was going to have a heart attack on her when he discovered that it was her who had narrowly missed the steel fence post. Taire smiled, but wasn't watching where she was going. As suddenly as her day dream had started, it was ended, by a "oomph" and a thud as Taire ran into someone and knocked them over.

Anna was walking briskly down the hall, thinking about her knew pool her parents were going to put in. Chris, Roger and Ricky were coming home this holiday.. she was so happy, Everyone would be together. She hummed silently, at least trying and failing horribly at. She then clenched her books tight and skipped, when she herd someone talking. She looked and saw a girl down the hall. Talking to herself. Was she OK.. loony? What? That, Anna did not know in the least. She then continued to ignore it and keep walking. She continued to skip and hum, dozing off thinking of her mother's home made cheese cake. She loved her mother's homemade Cheese cake. She smiled and licked her pink lips, while closing her eyes in a dream.
While doing so she bumped into a girl. A 5th or 6th year she was not sure, sense her books fell to the floor along with her papers and quill. "Crater sauce!!" she muttered and bent down to pick it up. " I am sorry that was my fault. I was dreaming" she said still looking down gathering her papers

Taire laughed as the younger girl started apologizing immediately after the accident. "How about we call it a mutual accident, since I was daydreaming about being in a muggle race car again?" She said offering the girl a hand with her books. The poor girl, Taire thought to herself, She's obviously met some of the rude Slytherins this way. Taire couldn't help but to think this as she remembered that she acted that same way the first time she bumped into an older student other than a Slytherin. She had bumped into so many Slytherins when she was younger. Taire bent over to help the girl gather her papers. "I'm Taire." she said calmly as she handed the girl some of the papers that she had dropped.
Taire couldn't help that some of the papers were about muggles. "So you are fascinated with them too, huh? Ain't it just amazing how they can do so much without magic? I mean it's like their race cars, they work by these huge engine things with a million parts. Oh my, it took me forever to learn about how muggle cars worked." Taire realized that she was babbling, and looked at her feet. She was obviously dressed like a muggle with the exception of her Hogwarts sweater.

Anna smiled as the girl helped her. That was nice of her. She soon got all her, papers gathered and looked at the girl. "Muggles are amazing" she said with excitement in her eye. "I mean I am not one myself nore never met one....but" she looked at the girl still clenching her papers tight. Wow she likes muggles too?She thought. This was very good for Anna. " I mean have you ever seen a Television.. with a picture. And there are words" she said with a bright beam and nodded.
She was relieved the girl did not pummel her, like her brother said the older students would. She shook the girls hand politely. "Sorry How rude of me.. I am Anna.. 1st year" Anna blushed and rubbed the back of her neck "you probably figured that out already?" she laughed nervously.

Taire laughed as the girl mentioned muggle televisions, she had actually watched one quite a few times with her muggle friend Dominic, a friend which was rarely mentioned around the castle because she was afraid it would hurt Dare in some way. She smiled recalling the first time Dom and Dare had met. "I actually have a muggle friend who owns one. We watch it all the time." She said smiling. Taire had tried to not think of Dominic this whole term, but it was hard, after all she and he had been friends for years now. "It's actually kinda cool to have a muggle friend." She said smiling at the girl.
"Yeah, your a Gryffindor right? I remember the Sorting well." she said still smiling. "Don't be so nervous. I'm nothing like the Slytherins. Bloody devils, think they are better than everyone else. Don't they realize I live with two just like them every time I go home. Oops sorry, I tend to babble when my friends aren't around." Taire said quickly noticing that she was babbling again. Her thoughts wandered back to muggle things. "Have you ever seen a muggle microwave? The thing is totally weird, how it can cook food with just a light bulb thingy is weird." Taire said going back to the topic of muggle items.

Anna listened intently as the girl spoke about her muggle friend.. Anna has never had a muggle friend before, she had always wanted one, just to find more about the culture, she loved culture. She also would love to make a new friend. "Yes I am in Gryffendore" she laughed as the girl mentioned her house. "your a hufflepuff? correct?" she said with a smile and continued to walked with her. She kept listening about the television.
"A microwave you say?" she raised an eyebrow. " I do so would love to actually use one for food...Oh get this, they have Pizza. It is bread with tomato sauce and cheese on top. I have seen it in Pictures. It looks ever so delicious!" she said licking her lips. if there was one thing Anna loved to do, it was read and eat. She would eat twenty for seven if she could. Potatoes, steak, spaghetti,mashed potatoes, crisps, anything basically.
