Rivalry; Shaymon and Cyprus (Cy by Mina in this)

It's so incredibly touching, Cyprus thought to himself flatly as he rubbed a wet hand towel on the side of his right arm, feeling quite angry at his own foolishness which caused him to get this.

He just had to mind her. He just had to poke Will in the ribs when he thought she had fallen asleep.
Terrifying news for him, Will was only pretending to be asleep.
Even more bad news was that she had been trying to memorize that spell.

The stupid spell that caused his burn on his right arm.

Damn his own self.

But before he could curse himself again, a draft came in the door, announcing that someone came in.

Ok... so the party hadn't been that much of an embarrassment, and despite the massive hangover in the morning he regretted nothing. Especially after realizing not many people knew he'd kissed a boy as a drunken dare. Now he couldn't even remember who it had been, or really what they looked like for that matter. He couldn't even remember what he'd thought at the time. He could only hope it was disgust and regret, even though none of that really came to mind.

He just hoped he wouldn't be running into this kid any time soon. Or that nobody would find out about it.

Ah well, what really mattered was that he'd kissed Missy plenty and had flirted with Nora, who, it turns out, has a boyfriend in Ninth. Which he thought was really too bad. She was cute.

Yawning, and running a hand through his hair he made his way from his dorm to the boy's washroom on that floor, running a hand through his hair which was standing up in odd angles. He'd skipped class that morning for sleep and had just woken up when he heard someone moving around the room.

Leaning into the door, he shoved it open with his shoulder and stepped in, yawning again. When he opened his eyes and lowered his hand from where it went up to his mouth - manners ruled out- his look of surprise quickly turned to a glare and he stopped in his tracks.

No no... he'd been invited to this kid's cousins' birthday over Christmas, and just because he didn't go didn't mean he didn't have to thankful. Cyprus was friends with Lynn, so he might as well try to be nice. There wasn't any real reason not to be...

"'Morning." Even though it was afternoon...

He walked into the room completely, watching Cyprus carefully as he stood at the other sink in front of the mirrors. He ran a hand through his hair as he looked at his reflection before turning on the tap. He was about to spray water on his face when he noticed the burn on his arm. "Christ, what happened to your arm?" Than he grinned, "Did Lynn do that?"

Here's to being hopeful. He just felt like throwing her name into the conversation to show he knew her more than he did. Juvenile and stupid he knew, and the look on his face dared him to a challenge. He had all his Lynn trivia ready.

No... that wouldn't be happening.

Someone tall had stepped into the washroom with him. Simple reason really, they were just the same height.
To make things simpler, it was Shaymon who stepped in.

"Morning."

An eyebrow shot up. Messy hair, more than usual, wrinkled shirt, explained why he was absent from class that morning. He continued on rubbing the cloth on his arm as he said "Afternoon" in return...
Will used to greet him like that. She never said good in any of her greetings because there never seemed to be a day to have any good in them.

Then suddenly...
"Christ, what happened to your arm?"

He winced involuntarily. Even more so as Shay continued.
"Did Lynn do that?"

"I wish she did." He put on a smile. Pained, but a smile no less. He just couldn't help but feel guilty as he never talked to Lynn anymore.

"It was Will." He detached the cloth from the wound and put it under the running, cool water. "Think she's still drunk from that party Burns threw in Rakin."

He felt a little jostled as ever as Aurora was mentioned in a conversation, this time most likely because she was the one who was standing right there when he'd kissed that guy and had completely forgotten up until that point. Oh god... Aurora knew. Now he was sure he didn't want to go socialize for a few weeks.

He chuckled none the less at Cyprus' comment and turned off the running tap, moving over to the towel rack to dry his hands and face. Pressing the white cotton against his face he quickly wiped away all water before lowering it and speaking again. "Will's got quite the attitude. If you ask me, that's one of the reasons Riu and her didn't last." Threw the towel across the room to the wash hamper, watching as it landed a little ways off.

He sighed and walked around to Cyprus' side to get a good look at his arm. "Jesus... maybe you should go to the healers? That might be permanent if you don't." Oh hoh, on second thought, he rather liked that. Maybe he'd be a little less handsome with a horrible burn mark on his arm. Take that nancy boy...

"What the hell did you do to get that?"

He had not replied to the Shaymon's comment about Will's attitude. Oh yes, she could be the world's nastiest skank bitch when provoked, but what the hell did that matter with her relationship with Riu?

He even had the sudden urge to defend Will, remembering that Shaymon and Ev Rose recently broke up.

But the huge burn mark on his arm made him think twice about it.

'Sod her' he told himself firmly as Shaymon got a better look at the mark.

"Jesus... maybe you should go to the healers? That might be permanent if you don't."

Wince. Wince. Wince.
"It's fine, no need to make a huge fuss about it." He waved the suggestion away, like it was a note from the teacher about his wand movements.

"What the hell did you do to get that?"

"Want to get one?" He couldn't help himself. "Just tell Will how she looked like a cheerleader during that party."

He made a cruel little laugh as he wiped his wound again. "I'm very much sure that you'd receive loads of hexes. If not punches."

Personally, he'd rather have hexes...

They were curable in an instant.

"Suite yourself." He muttered after Cyprus' brush off, and he threw his hands in the air as he stepped away while Cyprus answered his question.

"She did look a bit like a cheerleader, didn't she?" He knew what they were because he'd seen some downtown with Riu when they were younger. Riu had said "gross" and turned away -- they were fairly young at the time -- while Shaymon had just ogled their bare legs and creamy arms with something like awe, as if it were the first time he'd seen a girl before, which really was the first time he'd seen any quite like that.
But, there was just something weird about seeing Will dress like that, as he'd always seen her as kind of geeky. Very pretty... but weird.
"But I think I'll pass on the hex part really... she's just as book-smart as Riu, and who knows what those bookworm kids are capable of."

Wanting to change the subject, her sat on the edge of the sink, holding himself steady with his arms rigidly stiff at either side of him. He stared around the room instead of at Cyprus. "So, Lynn told me you're having a birthday thing at your house?"
He'd been to Cyprus' house before when he was younger and remembering being kind of angry that their house was bigger than the Felder's home, which was stupid considering he didn't even live in the Felder mansion. Riu hadn't seemed to have minded at all, and looking back he figured he really doesn't care about stuff like that, but Shaymon had been mortified for some reason.

Though the Felder's home was a fairly normal size mansion, most of their property was simply sprawling lawns, orchards, ponds, a river and a good portion of forest near the back. This world of big houses and things was new to Shaymon at the time, who hadn't even been to London until he was around 5 years old. His home in California was just a two story house along the ocean.

Another bitter feeling he felt when mentioning Cyprus' birthday was just the fact that Lynn had told him about it. He didn't mention to Cyprus (and never would) how happy she seemed when telling him about it the other day. Her face was practically glowing, and when he'd made a cynical remark about it she'd got rather offensive and slapped him over the back of the head. Something that Riu normally did.
