The Black Lake spreads over a vast area, and is so deep the satin-like surface is pitch black. Be careful, and remember, swim between the rocks!

Daemon shed his robes, and walked to the edge of the lake. There was no-one else around, which wasn't surprising, as it was a cold day, with a nasty little wind blowing. Neither of which bothered Daemon Blackthorn. Like his mother, he was an Ice Elementalist, and relished the cold. Swimming in the Black Lake on a day like this was nothing.
He climbed up onto a rock, and dove into the water, enjoying the biting sting of the water on his bare skin. He swam out towards the middle of the lake, then turned on his back, floating with his hands behind his head. Above him, the sky was grey and lowering; maybe they'd even get snow later.
At last, he turned over and swam back to shore. A quick spell dried him off, and he pulled his robes back on, and began to walk back towards the school.

Daemon smiled at Jessika as they walked towards the lake. He was glad she'd agreed to come out here with him. He really liked being around her, not like his scary cousin. "Did you see what it was Cassie showed Malfoy? Looked like something she thought was funny, so probably she thought Malfoy wouldn't like it. Psycho little...." he tailed off. Maybe he shouldn't be bad-mouthing her. Even if she was his cousin.

Jessika returned Daemon's smile and then looked out at the lake. She liked spending time with Daemon, he was fun to hang around with. When he spoke, she looked back over to him.
"I think it was the Daily Prophet, it looked like a newspaper. But I don't know what would have interested him in it," she said, shrugging her shoulders. She sighed. "I know she's a little - uh - odd, but she's your cousin, probably shouldn't say things about her. It'll probably get back to her some how. It always does."

Daemon laughed. "Yeah probably. But she's always in a temper about something, so it doesn't make much difference." He picked up a stone from the shore and threw it out into the water, watching it splash. "My mum says Cassie's dad was the same. Always looking for trouble, and making it himself if he couldn't find any. I'm just glad Cassie never stays with us in the holidays." He paused, looking thoughtful.
"I just realised, we've got something in common - you and me and Cassie, we all live with just our mums. Thought you two do at least know who your dads are. Mum won't tell me, not till I come of age."
He'd always wondered about his father - lately, he'd been thinking about it a lot more, though.

Jessika watched Daemon throwing rocks into the Lake, and shrugged as he spoke. When he said the three of them had something in common, she nodded.
"Yeah, I suppose we do," she agreed. "Eh - sometimes I wish I didn't know my dad, or at least that mum had given me her name. Do you know how hard it is to be a Lestrange?

Daemon nodded. "Maybe I do, a bit. You know my mum went on trial after the uprising in 2003? And her husband - the one I'm named after - he died in the Battle of Hogwarts, five years before that. He was killed by Remus Lupin. But I guess Blackthorn isn't as well known as Lestrange. I've seen the way some of those kids look at you. It's so stupid, all that stuff was over years ago."
He turned to face Jessika. "I don't care who someone's parent's were." He stepped closer, and smiled, a bit nervously. "Just because your dad's a Lestrange, it doesn't mean that I... that I don't want to kiss you." There, he'd said it. It was another thing that he'd thought about a lot, and now, maybe, he'd actually get to do it... unless she laughed in his face or smacked him, or something.

"Yeah, I suppose. But, to be entirely honest, I'd rather be a Blackthorn, even with the reputation." Jessika shrugged. "I just wish people could let go of it all." He turned to face her, and she smiled at him. As he stepped closer, she looked at him curiously.
His words made her breath catch in her throat. "You - R-Really?" She smiled, and stepped slightly closer to him, inviting him in.

Daemon wasn't sure how Jessika would react to what he'd just said. But then she smiled, and leaned closer. He put a hand on her shoulder, and leaned in, his heart starting to race as their lips met. It wasn't the first time he'd kissed a girl, but he hadn't felt this nervous about it before. He wasn't sure how hard to kiss her, but he tentatively slid just the tip of his tongue into her mouth, as he put his arm round her waist.

As Daemon put his hand on her shoulder, and leant in, Jessika stopped breathing, her heart pounding against her ribcage as heir lips met. She melted. She'd never kissed, nor been kissed by anyone before. No one went near the Lestrange girl, for fear of backlash from her family. She was happy this was her first kiss. She liked Daemon, She just didn't know much until right now. His arm went around her waist, and she put her hands on his biceps. Feeling his tongue poking slightly into her mouth, she sighed, sliding her tongue slowly to touch the tips together.
Oh dear lord!

Encouraged by the way Jessika put her hands on his arms, Daemon pulled her a little closer, nudging at her tongue with his own. This was definitely better than the first kiss he'd had, back on Valentines day when he'd been cornered by a classmate who, so he'd heard, was very free with her kisses. That had been okay, but this was different, he really liked Jessika, and he was kissing her because he really wanted to.
At long last he broke the kiss, and smiled at Jessika. He thought he should say something, maybe something cool and impressive, but all he could think of was, "That was - really nice."

As Daemon pulled her closer, and she felt his tongue nudging hers, her hands tightened on his arms slightly, and her tongue responded to his. When the kiss finally finished, she returned his smile, it widening as he spoke. "Yeah - it was," she agreed, with a breathy chuckle.

For a moment they were just smiling at each other. Daemon was about to lean in again, when the sound of the school clock striking the hour floated across the grounds. He grinned regretfully. "I guess we'd better get to class. Maybe we can - uh - spend some time together later."

Jessika sighed softly as they heard the school bell go. "Yeah, I guess," she nodded. "Sure. I-I'd like that." She smiled at him, biting her lip. "Well - uh - I'll see you later. Bye," she said, quickly leaning in to give him a quick goodbye peck on the lips, then ran off towards the Herbology Greenhouses.
