[Athena Parker]

Looking over her shoulder to make sure she wasn't being followed, Athena turned back to the portrait in front of her and tickled the pear in the picture. Smiling when a door handle appeared, Athena opened the door and slipped quietly inside to the kitchens.

As soon as Athena closed the door behind her, she was immediately assaulted by a multitude of house elves. "Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, slow down there guys. I'll just have a bowl of the beef stew that was served at dinner tonight please," Athena said as the house elves scurried off to do what she asked. "Oh and a couple bottles of butterbears please," she called after them as she went towards a table and sat down.

As Athena waited for her food, she looked around the kitchen and smiled at the memories that came flooding into her mind. The memory of her, Lena, and James having a food fight in this very room was a very fond one. When the house elf carrying her food placed it in front of her, Athena felt slightly bad about the fact that the house elves had to clean up the gigantic mess that they had made. As Athena started to tuck into her dinner, the door behind her creaked open and Athena turned her head to see who had joined her for a late night snack.

[Henry Cruiser]

Henry woke up in defeat; he had not been able to fall asleep. He had been tossing and turning and when finally melting into slumber, he'd been woken up by his racing mind. He slid his legs out of bed and thrust his feet into his slippers. Henry hadn't bother to change from his white tank and blue pajama pants, thinking he wouldn't meet anyone.

He walked down the corridor and unexpectedly heard his stomach rumble. He smiled to himself while patting his stomach. Henry turned the corner; he decided to take a little detour to the kitchens to get a nice midnight snack.

He reached the portrait of a bowl of fruit and tickled the pear. He slipped through the closing passageway, and smiled when he saw who already beat him to the kitchens.

"Hey, fancy seeing you here. What are you up to?" he said while ordering a butterbeer.

[Athena Parker]

Athena smiled brightly when she saw that it was Henry who walked in the door. Turning so she was facing him, Athena smiled even more at him. "Hey Henry. I came down here cause I missed dinner...again," Athena said with a slight laugh. "I seem to be doing that a lot lately," Athena said thoughtfully while shrugging her shoulders. Patting the space on the bench next to her, Athena said, "Care to join me?"

While waiting for Henry to join her, Athena started looking around the kitchens again and nearly started laughing when she saw a certain dish sitting on the counter a few feet away. "Excuse me," Athena said to a passing house elf. "Yes Miss," the house elf answered. "Is that liver casserole over there," Athena asked while pointing to the dish. "Yes it is Miss. Would you like some?" Athena scrunched up her face and shook her head. " No thank you." The house elf looked at her curiously before walking away.

Athena turned to say something to Henry when she suddenly felt tugging on her biker shorts. Looking down, Athena saw what looked like the head house elf. "Yes? How can I help you," Athena asked politely. "You won't be starting any food fights this time will you Miss," the house elf asked her seriously. Athena glanced at Henry for a moment, remembering their conversation about food fights in the common room, and smiled. "I don't plan on starting any but you never know," Athena said vaguely before turning back to her stew. The house elf just sighed and walked off, calling to the other house elves to be ready in case there was one. Leaning over to Henry, Athena said, "I didn't start the last one I was in. I just walked into it."

[[Let the battle begin!]]

[Henry Cruiser]

Henry smiled at her, "I didn't miss dinner, i'm just hungry again. " he said while laughing, "Oh, thanks," he sat down next to her. He grabbed his butterbeer and took a swig, he sighed in satisfaction and faced Athena once more.

Henry raised an eyebrow and pondered on why she asked the house elf about the liver casserole, he remembered their talk in the common room and silently chuckled. Henry saw the head house elf inquire Athena on her intentions in the kitchens and Henry couldn't resist but stick on a brilliant smile on his face. He raised another eyebrow when Athena mentioned to the house elf that she would possibly start another food fight.

Henry turned back to Athena, "You walked into it, eh? I bet your saying that to cover yourself up. I mean, you are a prefect aren't you?" he said with another laugh. His eyes wondered back to the liver casserole, and then back to Athena, "Are you thinking what i'm thinking ...?"

[OOC: can Athena start the food fight? I think it might be funnier, and for some reason i think if Henry starts it he might seem like a jerk, lol.]

[Athena Parker]

[[Hehe...no problem.]]

"I swear, I really did just walk into it. I wasn't even a prefect then," Athena said laughing. Pushing away her stew suddenly, Athena started forming a plan in her head. Calling to a house elf, Athena smiled down at the little creature. "I think I would like a helping of that casserole if you don't mind," Athena said with a bright smile. When the house elf ran off to do as she asked, Athena turned back to Henry, a devious smile on her face.

"What could you possibly be thinking of Henry," Athena asked innocently, knowing that she probably wasn't fooling anyone. When the house elf set the casserole in front of Athena, Athena grabbed a spoon and dug into it. Holding the spoon up for a moment to look at the disgusting substance that remained on the spoon. Glancing at Henry out of the corner of her eye, Athena flicked her wrist and sent the substance flying onto Henry's white tank. Standing up quickly, Athena went to the other side of the table and smiled innocently at Henry. "Was that what you were thinking of, Mr. Cruiser," Athena said while placing her hair up in a messy bun so it wouldn't get completely ruined in the possible retaliation.

[Henry Cruiser]

Henry scrunched up his nose as the piece of liver casserole stained his tank. "I have to say, Ms. Parker, that this was exactly what i was thinking..." he laughed as Athena took refuge on the other side of the table. He looked around the kitchens and the table, trying to find something to fire back at. His eyes finally set on his butterbeer, and he quickly grabbed it. He took the drink, ran to the other side of the table and splashed it over Athena's messy hair-do.

Henry now laughed histerically, and watched Athena's reaction to his doing. He fled and hid behind a chair, his mug of butterbeer still cupped between his hands and ready for action when needed. Henry's head turned back and he took a glimpse of Athena, only to find his veiw was covered in another food-substance.

[Athena Parker]

Athena froze when Henry poured butterbeer all over her hair. "Oh Henry, Henry, Henry...this means war," Athena said evilly as she shook her head. Glancing around, Athena's eyes landed on what looked like cupcakes on the counter. Smiling wickedly, Athena grabbed the cupcake and flung it at Henry, laughing when it hit him in the face, spreading chocolate icing all over his face.

"Wow, Henry...you look cuter with chocolate icing all over your face," Athena said innocently while placing her hands on her hips. Knowing retaliation was imminent, Athena ran over to the cupboard and grabbed the first spray can that she could find. Running back over to Henry, Athena held up a can of...mustard. Shaking her head at her choice, Athena brandished the mustard threateningly. "Now Henry, I think it's time to put some blond highlights in your hair," Athena said while taking aim and squirting five lines of mustard at Henry.

[[Hehe, I'm so evil.]]

[Henry Cruiser]

Henry took a finger and scooped up some of the chocolate icing and tasted it. "Then i should wear icing more often, " he said laughing. He placed his butterbeer on the counter once more, and took notice of Athena's new weapon. Trying to figure out he could top the mustard off with, an idea flew to his mind. His hand reached for some maple syrup.

He was interrupted by mustard being squirted in his hair. He dramatically fell to the floor and made a grunting noise. He lifted an arm and finally reached the bottle of sticky substance, and squeezed it, sending sweet squirts of his own to Athena's way. "Take that!"

[OOC: Yes you are, but two could play that game, lol]

[Athena Parker]

Athena laughed when Henry wiped some icing off his face and tasted it. Shaking her head at his antics, Athena grabbed a hand towel from the counter next to her and threw it to him. "Might want to wipe your face off. I wouldn't want you to miss a single thing that I throw at you tonight," Athena said evilly.

Athena laughed some more at Henry's antics when she squirted mustard on him. Her eyes widened when she saw the bottle of syrup in his hand and just barely ducked in time. "HA, you missed!" Athena looked around and saw a big container of mashed potatoes sitting a few feet away. Running over to the bowl quickly, Athena grabbed a big spoon and started lobbing spoonfuls of the potatoes in Henry's direction. "BOMBS AWAY," Athena shouted with a giggle.

[Henry Cruiser]

"I'm so glad your thoughtful" he said sarcastically while wiping the chocolate icing and mustard from his face. He threw it back at Athena who was instantly stained from the mess he left on the rag. Henry jumped over a fallen chair and continued on his journey to find a new weapon. He grabbed hold of a bowl of salad along with some dressing that the house elf was making before Henry put his hands on it.

He shoved the bowl into the air sending salad ingredients into the air around Athena while taking his own punches of mashed potato. He squeezed the dressing into the air as well after the salad raid. Henry absent-mindly laughed at the chaos that he and his housemate were creating in the kitchens. Oh well, it was fun.
