Early Morning Feast

[Deleted]

A soft moan accompanied Dorian as he shifted in bed up in the boys dormitory of Slytherin house. These blasted beds were never as comfortable as the one he'd called his own at home, and right about now Dorian found himself ready to sacrifice something in order to laie in his own bed once again. But this wasn't the time for complaining about things beyond his control, there were other things on his mind that needed to be taken care of first, things more in his control, such as getting himself something to eat. Sitting up in bed, Dorian released a slow sigh as his right hand eased up to gently rub the sleep from his tired eyes while his left remained pressed against the mattress. Had Dorian not been in school at the present moment, his morning wouldve most certainly started with some playful banter shared between himself and whatever witch was occupying his bed. Perhaps some playful kisses here and there along her naked body to wake her peacefully from her slumber, before Dorian would pull her form against his own and proceed to tell her what he wanted for breakfast. Shaking such thoughts from his head, Dorian eased his feet out of bed but didnt yet push himself up to stand on his feet, wanting to catch his bearings first before he actually got out of bed. It wasn't that he was still tired, okay maybe he was to some degree, but it wasn't anything that wouldnt pass in a minute or two. "Blimey I'm so bloody hungry." He whispered as his right hand pressed against his well toned abdomen just as it seemingly rumbled at the thought of breakfast, and sex of course.

With another light sigh, Dorian pushed himself out of bed to stand tall on his two feet while still rubbing his belly, taking a slow look around the rest of the dormitory just to see who else remained asleep, seeing a few unoccupied beds who most likely belonged to the boys who found some other place to sleep last night. As one of the few early birds belonging to Slytherin house, Dorian was almost absolutely sure that he'd be the first among the Slytherin 7th year males to grace the Great Hall with his presence this morning for breakfast, he couldnt say the same for the other houses. There were bound to be some Ravenclaw students about at the very least, they always seemed to be up early. Well, they do say the early bird gets the worm. Dorian thought to himself before he headed to the front of his bed where his trunk lie, crouching before it as he unlocked and opened it up to reveal clothes that lie inside. Picking out a few things to wear, as well as a pair of shoes to wear for the day, Dorian tossed the clothes upon his bed before closing and magically locking his trunk. He could never be too safe around others, especially the snakes that lurked in Slytherin house. Dressing himself at a steady pace, Dorian lastly grabbed the ebony wand that rested just beneath his pillow when he slept, twirling it once beneath his fingers before he sheathed it in the pockets of his shorts.

Exiting the dormitory as quietly as possible, Dorian would make his way through the dungeons with a steady and even stride,the sound of his shoes echoed against the stone walls with every step he took. Pushing open the door leading to and away from the dungeons, Dorian slipped out into the Entrance Hall which he noticed wasn't very full of students. But that was to be expected, because it was much too early for most of the schools students to be up on this saturday morning. His feet lead him through the middle of the entrance hall to the large double doors of the great hall that thankfully were open for the students to file in for their breakfast. Through the doors he went, his eyes scanning the room a few times to see absolutely no teachers, but a few students at each table, no one he outright immediately recognized though, must've been younger students whom he didn't bother to make acquaintences of his. His main intrest, the slytherin house table was quite empty he noticed, the barrenest of all four house tables. Deciding to occupy it, Dorian strolled over toward it before sitting down in the middle of the table, grabbing himself two of the many plates that lined the table.

One could almost drool at what food lined the table for the students to pig out on thanks to the house elves in the kitchens hard work, and Dorian was almost at the point of doing so. Once again, almost on cue, his stomach rumbled with hunger. But first, prayer. Bowing his head, Dorian began to pray over the food.

[Delilah Owen]

Boredom, boredom, boredom. Delilah literally hadn't slept for days. Her mind was wandering, and all she could think about what she could get up to next. Her homework was already completed, and although she felt as if she had wandered the castle a hundred times over, her feet were not aching. To be fair, she had to take a break from walking around in the middle of the night due to curfew and the like. She always thought the rule was rather silly. What were they supposed to get up to in the middle of the night? Wasn't that what locked doors are for?

Sometimes Delilah thought of writing down some of her racing thoughts, but it felt as if her quill couldn't keep up with her thoughts. She was going rather stir-crazy being in Hogwarts. Everything was the same every day, inside and out. Nothing was ever different. Hogwarts was extremely lonely for someone who didn't have friends. The place seemed too big and stuffed with too many random people. There was only one person that Delilah wanted to see, but considering the boy was so immensely popular, he seemed to be pulling a rather large disappearing act.

Delilah checked the time and realized that the Great Hall was probably open for breakfast. Like every time she went for breakfast, she was one of the first to be in there. She didn't even bother trying to see if anyone she knew or liked was there. It was practically the most redundant thing for her to do. James had been seemingly missing for weeks, and Lily was probably the reason. Both of them seemed to have disappeared into the shadows, and with a lurch of her stomach, Delilah tried to convince herself that they hadn't gone into the shadows together.

She closed her bag (which she had opened in order to check the time on her wizarding pocket watch) a little too roughly, which caused one of her quills to somehow fall and roll across the floor. Delilah followed it, and ended up next to a boy at the Slytherin table. His head was bowed, but even still she could tell that he was good-looking. Not James Potter good-looking, of course, but still. Without warning, Delilah shook his shoulder a bit roughly.

"Are you alright?" she asked, kind of loudly. Why else would his head be bowed at the table? Had he passed out?

The prayer wouldn't take Dorian long to finish, just about 30 seconds at the most if his attention wasn't pulled elsewhere. He would give thanks for the bountiful food before him prepared by the little hands of the elves in the kitchens of the school, express his minimal concerns that it wasn't laced with poisons or spells of any sort by someone trying to play a joke on anyone in particular. Just standard things to think about before eating. Just as he prepared to end his prayer, Dorian felt a hand grab at his shoulder and shake him quite roughly, which of course took him by surprise causing for him to flinch at the unexpected rough touch. Opening his eyes, Dorian turned his head to look beside him to see a girl standing there asking him if he were alright, to which Dorian simply gave her a confused look. Had she never seen someone bow his head in prayer before?

"Yes, I'm fine." He spoke with a slight aggrivated tone at being interrupted from finishing his blessing of the food before him on the table. No matter, he was practically finished anyway, no need to get ticked off about it like some would. He wasn't in the mood to snap on someone right now, he hadnt had his breakfast yet, so that was saving her from his words. "Is something wrong?"

Without giving her time to answer his question, Dorian turned away from her and pulled a plate infront of him. His mouth was damn-near watering from all the delicious looking food that lined the table. Pancakes, biscuits, sausage, bacon... you name it the elves had it on the table. The first thing he did was scoop a healthy serving of scrambled eggs onto his plate, quickly followed by three pancakes and then two biscuits with above five strips of bacon. Sure, it was alot, but with the day Dorian had planned for himself, he would work the calories away by lunch time. Running drills on the Quidditch Pitch would surely give him a work out, and if that wasnt enough, perhaps a swim in the Black Lake, or maybe just a long walk upon the grounds of the school. The possibilities were plentiful, he'd just have to choose what he wanted to do.

Pouring some a syrup over the entire contents of his plate, Dorian slightly licked his lips as he prepared to dig in, but then took notice to the girl who still stood beside him. Turning his head to look at her, Dorian cleared his throat slightly, looking around a bit before he extended his offer to her, "Well, you just gonna stand there and watch me eat, or would you care to join me?"
