Autumn scoffed and laughed quickly. "If I wasn't after Charity's 'sloppy seconds' I wouldn't end up with anyone. I'd be alone forever. I believe you hooked up with Charity or have at least made out with her." Autumn settled down as she looked back at him.
"I believe you'd have to beg me fore me to go to the dance with you." Autumn hopped off the dance and walked towards him, leaning over his shoulder."What are you doing, Foale? Ignoring me?" She inquired, looping her arms around him.

Apollo looked up from his book and shook his head, "Not ignoring you, Autumn, simply trying to get something done. Oh please please please will you dance with me?" He said sarcastically as he stared at her. He closed his potions book and set it on the table, "And for your information you snotty little sixth year, Charity and I did nothing of the sort. In fact, our encounter resulted in her having a couple of nasty bruises and ending up in the hospital wing with a large bottle of skelegrow."
"I'm sorry, was there something else that you wanted to say to me? Besides insulting me? Because, trust me. I'm all ears." He was beginning to get a little irritated with her. Who did she think she was?

Autumn sighed as she backed up. "I'm only changing my attitude to match yours. Calm down. But I'm sure you're someone's sloppy seconds. Besides, Cameron is actually cute. Unlike you who borders the line." Autumn smiled with a short laugh.
"If you really want to dance with me, get on your knees and beg."

Apollo folded his arms over his chest; He had to give her credit, she seemed...persistent, "Get on my knees and beg?" He raised his eyebrow, "Now now, I'm not sure that I'd like to dance with you that bad. At all. In fact, I'd venture to guess that you're the one who'd like to go to this dance with me." He said casually and walked towards her, catching her wrist in his and then snaking his arm around her back, pulling her close to him in one swift movement, "Come now, Autumn. Don't be so bitter. Even Charity isn't so...unbearably awful."

Autumn pulled back, pushing against his chest. "Don't ever compare me to Charity. I am not Charity." She said, deathly calm. The calm before the storm. Autumn took a breath, trying to regain her innocent composure.
"Maybe you're right, Apollo, maybe I do want to dance with you." Autumn turned her eyes back to him, her voice small. "I'm just scared. You do have quite a bad reputatio."

"A reputation that is so awful that it deters the faint of heart." Apollo said and laughed, "I'm not as bad as everyone cracks me out to be. I mean, let's be honest, Artemis does most of the dirty work." He said as a smirk crossed his lips. She had gotten soft, something that quite frankly did not remind him of Charity. And he rather liked it. He pulled her close and swayed from side to side for just a moment, "I mean one dance isn't going to harm either one of us, is it?"

Autumn looked down, using her hair to shield herself again. "One dance." She said it quietly, barely parting her lips. "That probably isn't enough for me." Autumn was holding back a laugh. One of those irrational laughs where something bad is happening and you just want to laugh until your gut hurts. Yea, one of those laughs.
She felt it. That tug towards someone as she struggled to bury it again. He'd hate her once he figured out why she wanted this. Why she had gotten detention just so she could get close to him. He's hate her in a few weeks if she was lucky.
"What do you mean Artemis does most of the dirty work? So all these bad things I've heard about you are just you taking the rap for Artemis?" Autumn asked as she looked back up. "You aren't as bad as everyone thinks?" She could feel it. The lump of guilt building in her stomach, burning a line straight to her heart. It was one thing to double cross a bad guy, but to double cross a good guy was just sickening.

Apollo felt a small smile cross his lips. Now she was beginning to understand, "You see...Artemis is a very fickle creature. One minute, we're the best pair of malicious Slytherin twins you've ever seen...and the next, well...let's just say that she tends to take everything way too far. It's like she wants to get under certain people's skin. She's been trying to get close to that Grayson guy since he got here. She keeps saying that's what he wants. And of course, along with that comes the beatings, the hexing, the craziness." Apollo took a breath and spun Autumn out and then back in again, "I end up taking the rap for her. Always. Because that's what a good brother does." He muttered.

Autumn pulled away, walking towards a shelf, trying to regain herself. He was good. And she was using him to get information on his sister. She was bad. She wrapped her arms around herself as she turned to stare out the window. What had she gotten herself into with the Foale twins?
"THat doesn't seem fair. To be the good guy but to be labelled as the bad one. Seems down right disgusting. Why? Why don't you just stop? Tell her you don't want to. Not only is she ruining her life but also ruining yours. That isn't right. Do you think she loves you or something? Because if you truly loved someone you wouldn't let them do that!" Autumn barely contained her voice as she continued to stare at her reflection in the window. She looked confused and frightened before she tried to school her features.

"Life's not fair." Apollo said and sunk down into a chair. He didn't know why he was constantly taking the rap for everything. Then again, he couldn't ever remember anything about the incidents until he found himself confessing that he had bee the one doing them, "She's not ruining my life. I love my life!" He retaliated and buried his head in his hands. That was also a lie. He knew it was. But for some reason, his mind wouldn't say what he was really thinking. It was like he had all but lost control of his actions.
He lifted his head slowly to stare at Autumn who was now staring at the window, facing away from him. He wasn't sure where this sudden burst of emotion had come from, but suddenly it seemed like Autumn was a live wire and everything she said had some sort of weird interest behind it, "She does love me, Autumn. She's my sister. She's all that I have." He said quietly.

Autumn made a noise as she turned, running both her hands through her hair in frustration. "Loves you? You think people would intentionally ruin your life if they loved you or even cared about you? She may be your sister but that doesn't mean that she loves you! You can't always be in someones shadow or limelight shall I say. You can't be a mindless baboon without consequences." Autumn broke off, shaking her head furiously.
"That's why I can't do this. I'd be just like your sister! Taking advantage of someone who doesn't know any better!" Autumn walked quickly to the desk where she had left all her stuff and started jamming textbooks in her bag roughly, feeling a need to cry but she pushed through it.

"But isn't that exactly what you're doing, Autumn." Apollo said and looked at her carefully. He stood up and crossed to her, pressing his hand on her shoulder, "You're living in Charity's shadow...You don't even know how to be your own person." He breathed and then removed his hand. He took a step backward as the second part of her statement began to sink it, "Wait...Autumn....do what? What are you doing? What do you mean taking advantage of me?" He said curiously, his brow furrowing. He was crossing to her again when the door opened, starling him.
"Apollo." It was Artemis. She stood in the doorway and pressed her back up against the doorframe. She had a large scar running down the side of her arm, barely visible and a fresh bruise on her cheek. She looked like she had been in another fight, "Apollo, I've been looking all over for you, silly." She said with a laugh and smile. Then her eyes slowly traced over Autumn, "But I can see you've been busy." She raised an eyebrow.

Autumn tossed them both a nasty look. The words Apollo had said hurt more than he knew. She wanted to be original but it was hard when ever personality was already taken up. She swallowed passed the lump in her throat. She couldn't do it. She could hurt Apollo more than Artemis already was. She wasn't going to be Artemis. She'd tell Cameron and who knows what he'd do. She knew what he wanted and knowing how spontaneous Cameron was, she doubted she'd make it out alive.
"Actually, Foale, I was just leaving. You can go ahead and talk to your brother about how some... boy beat you up." Autumn muttered in a scathing tone as she clasped her backpack and made her way to the door.

Artemis checked the girl's shoulder as she was leaving the room, "Watch it, Autumn. You're not above me, sixth year." She muttered to Autumn and then crossed to Apollo, placing her hands on his shoulders, "I've gotten myself into another little tizzy...Don't think you could bail me out again, could you?" She said with a small smile, letting some of the pain she was feeling seep into her eyes.
Apollo watched Autumn packing up and then stared at Artemis. Everything Autumn had said was still ringing in his ears, but he couldn't seem to say not to Artemis, "Of course, sis. Whatever you need." He breathed.
