Book Signing / Jarod

[ROXANNE VOGEL]

It was the second last Hogsmeade weekend of the year and Roxanne was excited to go. She still went every time, unlike some of her classmates. The novelty of the wizarding village wore off a bit to the older years, once they went quite a few times. But Roxanne always liked to go. This one in particular coincided with a book signing at the college in Hogsmeade.

They often had workshops, book signings, and other events that were open to the public, not just the students there. It wasn't her first time at the college and hopefully wouldn't be her last. She wasn't sure if she would need to go there after school, though. Perhaps if something happened and she flunked her NEWTs! But she hoped that wouldn't happen. She was sure she wanted to work at the Ministry and not likely in law enforcement. She wasn't sure exactly what, but she had time to figure that out.

Roxanne asked her friend Jarod to meet her at the entrance of the school so they could go to the book signing together. Of course, they could go do other things afterwards. It wouldn't take the whole day. But Roxanne didn't want to miss it, so she insisted they go there first.

JAROD RAINES

[JAROD RAINES]

Jarod tried to figure out what to wear sure he was a guy not a girl, that was obvious but he didn't want to emberrasse himself or his best friend, Roxanne after all. So he wanted to look at least decent and presentable. As decent as Jarod could be at least. He looked through his clothes and picked something that look decent and presentable and changed his clothes. Then he brush his hair and got what he needed and headed out. Jarod was glad that he and his best friend Roxanne were about to hang out. He did miss hanging out with her. Jarod moved as fast as he could as he hoped not to be late. Jarod arrived at Hogsmeade and looked around as he began to walk and search for Roxanne. He just hoped that he wasn't late and that he didn't hurt and upset her as he didn't want that.

Jarod tried not to think of that as he hoped for the best. As Jarod did that he continued to walk and search for Roxanne. He stopped as he saw her and smiled, then he made his way over to her. He continued to smile at her as he made his way over to her. "Roxanne. There you are! I was looking for you as soon as he I arrived. I hope I am not late as I don't want to upset or hurt you after all!" Jarod said to her. He smiked at her kindly as he said to her. Jarod truly hoped that it was the right time and all. Jarod then gave her a friendly hug or tried to. After that, he just looked at her. "It is good to see. I missed hanging out with you as we are friend after all," he said to her a bit later. "Anyeag, shall we go? If we haven't missed it yet, that is," Jarod said to her.

He really hoped that they didn't miss it and that they could still go there and that they weren't late or anything like that. Jarod didn't wish to miss it for either of them. As like her, he wanted to go too, as he was curious about that. Jarod had no idea who was signing butt. still wanted to go, just like that moment but sill. He just hoped it wouldn't someone he hated. Jarod tried not to think of that as he hoped for the best as he watched her and he waited for her to reply while he looked around and back at her, as he wondered what would it be her react. He wondered what would her reply or reaction be. Jarod watched her as he waited.
