She walked into the owlry carrying a small peice of parchment in her hand. It was a simple letter to her parents, they had asked her to write to them every week just so they knew she was healthy. She had gotten skinny so when she went to visit them they were concerned. She had tried to explain but her parents never listen. She sighed tying the letter to a random owls leg. She watched it fly off into the night. Many of the owls were out hunting, only some were here int he owlry sitting and just hooting. She watched it until she couldn't see it anymore. She stayed where she was though by the window.

Micheal was glad to be back up and around. He'd been sick for quite a while and was just beginning to feel good. His features were getting back to normal, slowly but at least they were. He was still pale some and his eyes were still a little sunken in, but he wasn't as skinny since his apettie had been on high ever since he left the Hospital Wing.

As he walked up to the owlery he took many deep breaths trying to savor the fresh air smell. Finally reaching the top of the stairs he walked in looking around for his sister's owl, knowing she wouldn't mind if he used it. The letter he had in hand was for his friend, the one who he had only gotten in contact with when he came back to Hogwarts....the only one he knew he could trust.

Yawning his eyes finally landed on a girl in the corner and with a soft smile he walked across to the other side finally spotting Jewel, his sisters owl.

Faith was so lost in thought, but she was snapped out of it when a boy came in. Her head turned to him and she smiled at him then her attention was caught by another owl flying past a window.

Before Micheal had begun to tie the letter to Jewel's leg he saw the girls smile. Just that smile made him feel great because he was finally out and about and she was practically the first student he'd actually got a reply from, even if it was just a smile. As he finished attaching the letter he watched the owl fly off into the blue skies ahead as her wings flapped through the air gaining speed.

Few moments later he turned and glanced at the girl, he noticed her attention was caught by one of the many owls. Smiling he teased, "Someone has a crush I see." Pausing for second he added his voice still teasing, "I don't think he's much your type though."

Faith turned away from the window and leaned her back against it. " Ah well the only reason I was attracted to him was because of his looks." she shrugged and then the smile returned to her lips. The boy looked horrible, he was so pale. Her head tilted to the side as she stared at him the smile still on her face.

Micheal laughed when he heard her answer to his teasing. He was glad she hadn't taken him seriously and that she played along. "I thought that was the reason, he is good looking," he said with a grin as he glanced at the owl they were talking about.

After a few moments though she felt the girls' eyes on him and he turned to look at her seeing she had her head titled and was smiling. He knew he probably looked really bad to her, he knew he did to himself. Micheal was hoping though that being outside and the sun would do him some good. "You alright over there?" He asked finally a small smile playing on his lips.

" Yeah with all his brown feathers and all. So sexy." she shrugged. She didn't have to know the boy to know that he didn't always look like that. She wasn't stupid. She was althoguh happy that someone was able to make her smile, she hadn't been smiling for a while now with everything going on with Finn and Simner. " Um yeah it's just you look really bad, are you okay?" she asked walking towards him.

Micheal just smiled at her first comment. He had always been the person who you could practically always see smiling and laughing, just like his sister. As the silence went on he waited paiently for her to answer his question.

Once the girl did he shrugged. He felt fine, but he knew he didn't look it. Looking up to the other as she walked towards him he answered, "I'm fine. Just got done being sick though and I see it left me some lasting affects." Pausing for a moment he glanced out at the sun. "I thought maybe being outside would change it."
