It was Valentine's Day, which, in Shazzamyn's mind, was the most depressing major holiday of the year. Mainly in part that she didn't have a sweetheart to share it with. Walking around Hogmeade on this perfect day, watching couples young and old laugh, kiss, and cuddle, added on to her One-Day-Only depression. That said, she decided to go to the Shrieking Shack to be alone with her depressing thoughts. Halfway there, she noticed a mysterious pathway with roses lying on it's pink bricks, that obviously wasn't there before. It lead to a door that was at the base of a hill. Curiosity getting the best of her, Shazza followed the path to the cherry door, where she could make out the words The Dating Scene Find your True Love Here! (Just remember to wipe your feet.) ONE DAY ONLY! With an incredulous look on her face, Shazza wiped her feet on the heart- shaped Welcome mat and entered.

Lyserg was wondering threw Hogsmeade Village when he spotted a path with roses and beautiful flowers. He blinked and didn't know if it was really there so he took a few steps inside the pathway. Excited that it was real he picked up a rose and sniffed it, absolute bliss is in the smell of a rose, he thought to himself while he enjoyed the sent of the wonderful flower.
Lyse walked all the way threw the pathway and notices a red cherry doorway. He smiles and sniffs the rose in his hands once more while wiping his feet on the mat like it said to. Stepping inside and accidentally bumped into someone standing by the enterance of the doorway. "Oops! I'm sorry." He rubbed the back of his head and chuckled a little.

Instantly upon entering, Shazza took in a deep scent of roses that was strong yet not overpowering, while squinting in attempts to adjust to the rather dull lighting of the place. Once she did, her mahogany eyes widened in astonishment by the various reds, whites, and pinks that managed to fill up the place (drastically contrasting with her attire, made up of a frilly knee-length black skirt, indigo blue tank-top, dark purple scarf, and black leather buckle-up boots). Also, the fact that it had three levels. After the initial shock, she was surprised to see that it reminded her of a sophisticated nightclub.
The interior of the place was coliseum-like (circular and held up with reinforced lava lamps in the style of pillars), and went underneath the ground two levels: the first level (which is what she was on) was a just a balcony filled with two-person tables. The second level was also a balcony filled with two-person tables, but floating in the middle was an unbreakable glass dance floor that was magically lighted, a stage for a band and a Karaoke machine. Currently the light on the dance floor was very dim, allowing her to see the third level, which had some more two-person tables, but also two-person booths, and a bar in the center, where she saw her first person since entering the vicinity.
Before she could take a closer look, someone ran into Shazza from behind, making her stumble. Twirling around, she saw a shape of a person, indefinable to her because of the daylight behind them, to which she shaded her eyes to. She then heard young man’s voice say “Oops! I’m Sorry.” before rubbing his head and chuckling a little. “It’s alright, no harm done.”, she replied. “Who are you?”

Lyserg blinked at the girl and then bowed "Oh! How rude of me. My name is Lyserg Diethel but everyone calls me Lyse." He smiled warmly at her "And who might you be?" He looked around in the dimmed room. "Wow, it's really nice in here." Lyse remembered the rose in his hand and sniffed it again before offering to the young girl he'd just met "For you." He smiled brightly and chuckled again. "Do you have a Valentine?"
Lyserg's cheeks were turned a bright red as he smiled at her. "If you have one I'm sure we can still just be friends." Looking over at the shelves stacked with different beautiful bowes of chocolates and other candies, Lyse walked over to them and pointed at the shelves "Would you like me to buy you some chocolate or maybe some candy?"

Shazza looked at the Lyse in shock, holding the rose he gave her. He managed say and do all that in a span of 7 seconds! Two things came to mind: The first was 'Wow, he sure does hit on a girl fast.', and the second was 'At least he's polite, which is what you're currently lacking. Go introduce yourself, woman!' "First of all, I'm Shazzamyn", she started, "but everyone calls me Shazza. No I don't have a Valentine ('Is it that obvious?!'), and thank you for the candy offer, but no thanks." By the time she finished saying all this, she was blushing furiously. Then she remembered the person she saw at the bar. 'Who knows, that bartender could be a serial killer. Well, just to be safe...' "Would you mind accompanying me to the bar, Lyse?" she asked, walking over to the railing and looking over once again. 'That's strange' she thought with a frown. She walked the length of the level and confirmed her suspicions. 'There are no stairs on this level. Or any in that matter.' "Hey Lyse, do you know how to get down there?"

Shrugged away the candy shelves, Lyse walked over to the girl with smiles "Sure, I would like to accompany you." He tilted his head when he saw her walking over to a railing "Do I know how to get down where?" Lyserg glanced around at what she was looking at and was confused "What's that?"

"Well, I think that's a glass dance floor, but what I'm looking at is below that. There's a person at that bar, but there's no way to get down there, as there are no stairs in this place." Shazza replied. Suddenly, the railing she was holding on to unlatched itself with a small 'click' and swung open, making her fall into open space. She tried to grab onto the edge of the dance floor, but her vertical challenge-ness ( ;D ) made it all to no avail.
Flailing in mid-fall, Shazza closed her eyes and was about to let out a last, bloodcurling scream when a 'Blip-Blip-Blip-Blip' noise caught her attention. Moments after, she gasped in surprise when she landed on something soft and fluffy, instead of the hard floor below. As it floated back up to the top level, she opened her eyes and looked at her savior. "A Nimbus!" She whispered in awe. 'How sneaky...'
She floated to the top and grinned at Lyse.
"Hop on!" she said merrily, "I think there's room for one more!"

Lyserg gasped when he saw her fall and he tried to catch her but he wasn't quick enough. All the sudden she was caught and brought back up to him "Are you alright?!" He paniced with wide eyes and grabbed her hand. He then blinked and looked at the cloud "A nimbus huh?" He crawled on causiously and clung to Shazza tight "It's not gunna drop us right?"

To Forgoil Halifirien, Valentines Day was one of the less interesting days of the year. He never understood why people became so strange on this one day, but maybe he was never meant to understand such things as of yet. As he aimlessly strolled around Hogsmeade, he noticed a path leading to a garden of roses.
As he wandered through the garden, Forgoil became enthralled by the smell of the roses and collapsed in the middle of the garden's path; absorbing from the roses all that his five senses could take. It seemed like a lifetime before Forgoil heard a shout inside the building and decided to investigate.
Upon entering the building, he saw a girl and a boy on a nimbus that was hovering nearby. "What on Earth are you two doing?" exclaimed Forgoil.

Lyserg jumped and turned to look at the voice behind them. He spotted a boy at the door and blinked. Trying to register what he was doing and what happened before, Lyserg looked over at Shazza and remembered he was clinging to her. He jolted and paniced when he looked back at the other boy "I-it's not what y-you think!" He quickly let go of her and blushed with embarrassment "She fell and then this nimbus cloud saved her. I was on'y clinging to her because I didn't want to fall. I'm not trying to hurt her." He was talking about when Shazza fell and screamed earlier.

"No, I know its not what I think it is because I don't think that way; I judge people when I know them better, and never on first meetings," chuckled Forgoil when the boy answered him. This was the most amusing thing to happen to Forgoil that day, besides being lured in by the roses. The boy Forgoil had never seen before until now, but when his gray-green eyes focused on the girl, he recognized her because she was in his house, yet he couldn't place a name with the girl.
"It seems that I have forgotten my manners,"said Forgoil, "Allow me to introduce myself; I'm Forgoil Halifirien and you would be...?"

She walks around hogsmeade looking forward to going to her favorite place which usually had absolutely no one in it other than her and her friend Sam. Even if it was Valentine's Day who really cared. Stupid holiday. I swear they have a holiday for everything except Diwali.
She stops and see's a sign. 'The' sign on 'HER' favorite place.
"Aw Hell No. They can't do this."
With that she storms in cursing under her breath looking at all the nasty pink decorations and all those roses. She picks one up and it instantly turns black and shrivels up to nothing in her hand.
Not again.
She quickly drops it hoping no one saw it or nobody will see it. She goes back to her mission, which was to bite off the head of the bartender.
She comes to the ledge. She looks to her left and see's 2 people on the Nimbus and 1 person next to it. She hears their conversation but she doesn't care. She goes up to them:
"Excuse me, but will you guys be going down anytime soon?"
She didn't want to be rude but she was in rage. Atleast she didn't scream at them which wasn't that bad.

Signing in relief, Lyserg held hi hand to his heart and looked over at the other boy and chuckled "I'm Lyserg," He hopped off the Nimbus cloud and bowed curtiously at the Forgoil "Lyserg Diethel, It's really a pleasure to meet you."
Hearing someone else come in he glanced over at the door, sunlight not effecting his eye sight. Lyserg spotted a girl, she spoke and he nodded when he noticed she didn't look like she was in a friendly mood and her aura showed it as well. "Shazza let me help you down," He reached his hand up to her "Thank you Nimbus Cloud for saving Shazza, too."

(OOC: Sorry I wasn't here yesterday. I was suffering through FFF: Forced Family Fun. *groans*...)
BIC: "I'm Shazzamyn, but everyone calls me Shazza.", Shazza replied to Forgoil's greeting, recognizing him from her house but never actually approaching him.
Just then she noticed that another person was here, who looked extremely irritated.
"Excuse me, but will you guys be going down anytime soon?", the girl asked.
"Oh! No.... Sorry..." Shazza replied sheepishly.
Lyse offered to help her down from the nimbus, which she accepted gratefully, another blush gracing her cheeks. 'He's so polite!' But right when she did, another nimbus appeared, ready to take the new girl to her desired destination. 'Ah, so there's more than one...'
"Well, I guess that solves that problem.", she said with amusement. Shazza wanted to say more to the girl, but she was afraid that if she did, the girl might start breathing fire or something. Better safe than sorry...
"Actually," she started, "Lyse, Forgoil, how about we start heading down ourselves? The nimbuses seem to come right when you want to go down, so everyone can have one."
Shazza turned to the girl.
"Are you going to see the bartender? If you are, then do you mind if we join you? By the way, I'm Shazzamyn, but more commonly referred to as Shazza. Nice to meet you."

Lyserg smiled when Shazza accepted his hand and he carefully let her down. "What a nice Nimbus Cloud." He said quietly and turned to Shazza. He looked down at her hand and wanted to hold it and so he did. Happily crossing his fingers inbetween hers and blushing slightly "Is it alright if I hold your hand Shazza?" He whispered into her ear softly and blushed a bit more.
Looking over at the other girl and bowing "I'm Lyserg," He smiled "Lyserg Diethel. It's a pleasure to meet you, miss." Wondering over to the Nimbus, he helped Shazza back up onto it and then he hopped back on and clung to her. He was afraid of falling, a mild fear from the past. "Shall we go to see the bartender then? I want to see where we're going." Lyserg was excited, as he always is when it comes to visiting new places and meeting new and interesting people.
