After a while Lilith didn't even know why but she was in the habit of just going out and having a drink to unwind from the week and to get ready for another one. She was in nothing to flattering she wore baggy boy jeans and a baby doll shirt that read. 'I am what I am and that's all that I am.... Deal with it.' One of her favored shirts in her extensive collection. She had a heavy jet-black cloak swung over her shoulders and as she walked her way to the one place she took salvation in her head. Book in hand and a pouch full of money.
She kept it quiet and closer to the dark shadows. She found herself becoming more like her brothers everyday. Cold almost emotionless physically. Was getting quieter by the minuet and read non-stop and tried to gain approval of everyone around her. She was actually upset about it. She was becoming more found of silence and the dark. While before she liked these things some of the times but not all of the time.
She walked along the worn dusty path and came to the hog head. She smiled and opened the door and closed it just as fast. She looked around the candle lit pub and just felt comfortable. She looked and saw that there weren’t many people here. She took off her thick warm cloak and hung it by the others. She ordered a butter beer and paid for it and went into the corner table brought her legs up and opened her book.
She quickly found her self sipping on the liquid she had become so fond of and held her book and started to get lost within the pages until five butter beers later and three hundred and seventy nine pages later someone disrupted her alternate world by asking her a question.

Evelyn sighed deeply as she walked around Hogsmeade aimlessly. She was so deep in thought that she hadnt even noticed when her friends had approached her and asked if she wanted to accompany them to a prank fest. She merely shook her head and swatted her hand as she continued on her mental quest to find herself.
She must have walked through Hogsmeade thirty times before deciding that a butterbeer [or something stronger] would help her think clearer. She walked slowly to The Hogs Head, thinking or how she could possibly get something stronger. When nothing came to mind she walked into the pub and took a deep breathe, taking in the sweet aroma of butterbeer and the sharp smell of firewhiskey.
She felt right at home now. Butterbeer always made her feel like she was in her father's warm arms. He always smelled like butterbeer. She took another deep breathe then went for a seat. The waitress was passing by and she asked for a butterbeer then took a seat near the corner. She saw a seemingly familiar face and smiled lightly. She went over to the shadow in the corner and looked at the girl. "HeyLuc...." The girl lifted her head and she cleared her throat. "Sorry... I thought you were somebody... else..... Mind if I sit?" She asked politely, pointing to the seat across from the girl.

Lauri had been out all night, roaming the streets. He wore his usually baggy black pants, and a long sleeved shirt that kept him warm. He also always wore a beanie when it was cool outside, it was his favorite thing, besides the feathers he wears in his hair occasionally.
He walked with his head down through the streets of hogsmead with his hands in his pockets and his long hair falling gently in front of his face and his light green eyes. In on hand he grasped a lit cigarette and he took at a drag at it every now and then. He was slowly trying to quit the nasy habit of his, and it was working out really well. In the present, he smoked only one to two cigarette's a day.
As he travelled down the streets, a cold wind blew which made him seek warmth. He was about to pass the Hogshead when he figured he would stop there and have a butterbeer. He stood outside the place and dropped his cigarette on the ground, then he went inside. A blast of warmth came over his body and he ordered himself a butterbeer.
He turned himself around to see something that he hadn't noticed before. Two other Howarts students, one that he barely knew, while the other he hadn't seen at all. He sat there and debated whether or not he should approach them. He was a very quiet and shy boy, but he felt somewhat social tonight. He approached them and pulled out a seat.
"Do you mind if I join?" he asked politley.

Lilith had become very very good friends with the bartender here she had her own tab already started. She was in here so much that after five butterbeers they just brought her a shot glass and a very tall thick bottle of Firewhiskey. Which the waitress did. She was becoming way too much like her brothers these days. Hiding in book beyond books and even turning to muggle fantasy. She got a good laugh at how pathetic their knowledge of magic was. But she jumped when a girl came up and started talking to her but stopped. She shook a bit from the startled and nodded. She didn't really take her eyes from the book and said in a soft warm voice, " Sure if you really want to."
She smiled when she found the bottle in front of her she laughed softly and quietly thanked the girl. She took the bookmark that had her name on it and placed it in the book just peeking out so she could find her place with ease. She set the book down and as she made movements to open the bottle and yet again someone asked to sit down she barely looked at him. She like her brothers tried to pretend not to care so much but their deep brown eyes always somehow showed that they cared a lot. She then acknowledged the boy and said, " I don't mind feel free."
She was at least much more out going than her brothers were. She was trying so hard not to be like them. She never was before and in all honesty she kind of feared becoming like them. She didn't want to be like her father or really her mother she was just trying to prove to herself to her family. Which lately she had been but she didn't feel like she was being herself. Lost in her thought she had opened the bottle and poured some into a shot glass.
She came out of her thought as the liquid coursed her body. Which made her see the people who had joined her table she had no idea who either of them were. She hadn't stopped sitting Indian style on her chair and looked at her bottle and her caring eyes and personality got the better of her and even though she was asking herself why she was giving up an entire bottle to herself so she could share? She than asked in her soft voice..." Um would you guys like to spilt with me

Evelyn sat down across from the girl. She smiled and watched as the girl moved silently. She saw the guy from the hospital wing come up and she smiled. "Hey you." She said to him. "I never got your name....." She said before drinking her butterbeer that was just handed to her. She looked as the girl opened a bottle of Firewhiskey. Her eyes followed the bottle hungrily. Damn.... She got firewhiskey.... But... She cant be much older than me.... She thought to herself. When the girl finally asked if they wanted some she nodded eagerly and conjured her favorite shot glass. Yes, Evie drunk. But she wasnt bad.... Not at all. Just when she needed to think. It cleared her mind and she only took a maximum of five shots. She poured herself some in her shot glass then in the girls and lifted it up in a toast. "To getting firewhiskey before we're of age?" She said, her shot glass up high.

Lauri sat down and looked at Evie apologetically. "I am sorry," he said. "My name is Lauri Ylonen." When he was offered some firewhisky he accepted with open arms. He had come in to the Hogs Head with the doubt that he could get some and stuck to the butterbeer, but this was great for him. He slid his butterbeer to the side and poured some firewhisky into a shot glass and drank it. He loved the stuff so much, but knew she shouldn't. He shouldn't do a lot of things.
"So what is everybody up to?" he asked, trying to make the situation a little less awkward.

Lilith looked at the girl and fought the urge to smile and just smirked she toasted and drank another glass she let herself fill her glass up again. She looked as the boy gave his name to the girl and she made note of his name 'Lauri' she thought to herself. Than she would wait for the girls name to come up and she would be in a good position to at least know the names of the people she was drinking with.
She didn't down this drink as fast because normally she would just down a lot and then slow down. But she knew better than to get smashed with people she didn't know all to well. She was staring off into space as Lauri asked a question. In a soft comforting voice she said, " Getting away from chaos. You guys?"

Lauri took a rather large "sip" of his drink and leaned forward a little bit in his chair. He watched the two girls quietly. He was a usually a really quiet, shy kind of guy, but tonight he felt somewhat more social. When Lilith asked a question he answered,
"I've just had a rather... rough day." Lauri stared intently at his drink and moved his long hair back from in front of his face. His hands sort of trembled as they fell over top of his glass, but he wasn't cold. He looked back up at the girls from his little trance. "So, what kind of chaos were you getting away from?" he asked kindly.

Lilith hid a soft smile and looked down at her glass she nodded as Lauri said he had, had a rough day and she didn't want to get to personal. But the truth was how couldn't she figure after tonight she probably wouldn't be seeing either of them again and that would be the end a fun night of talking and drinking. She took another 'sip' of her drink and let her dark caring eyes drift up. She than started to say. " Honestly just trying to escape life for a night. Sounds stupid since you can't ever escape who you are but nice to take a break I guess."
She hadn't given so much thought as to why she didn't want to be like her older brothers but she knew that she didn't want to carry the reputation of being a cold-hearted person always. Like her family had been known for. Although lately that was all she felt, like she was becoming what her family was known for and not whom she was known for. Being the odd man out in her family never trying to be fully anti-social. She shook her head as her mind wandered her endless thoughts. She looked up as someone began to speak.
