Faith walked along the lonely hallways that led the the Armor Gallery. Her arms were crossed and she held tightly onto her side. While her legs went one in front of the other causing her to sway from side to side as she walked. Her hair was somewhat of a mess, but she didn't mind. Faith walked closer to the items held in this vast hallway. Her fingers traced along a breast plate. All things relating to armory and weaponry entranced her. She loved danger.
Faith continued walking. She stopped every few seconds to admire a new piece of Armor. All of the pieces had kept their shine and still had been worn. Each had a story to tell. She stopped in front of a full body of armor and stood to admire it for a minute. She became lost in her thoughts and was in awe of it. It was amazing that it didn't shoot witty replies back at her like the portraits.

Max was climbing up the marble staircase...whistling a Christmas Tune..."Rudolph the Red Nos Reindeer" to be exact...he was climbing until he reached the third landing...he looked through the Armoury...he hadn't been there for a while...he caught his eyes on Acca....who was running her fingers through the Silver Plates of the Armour Soldier...it was weird how they didn't moved or talked today...he smiled as he entered the Armoury...he silently approached behind Acca...maybe trying to suprise her...which was impossible...
"Hey there pretty lady..." He smiled at her ...suprising her a bit...she quickly reacted to it as she turned around...he noticed something different...it wasn't Acca...it was someone else...

Faith stood closer to the amory and studied every inch of the pieces. Some had been engraced, other had their petina wearing off, and the rest told stories of the bloody sacrifices that had happened while wearing these suits. Her fingers traced indentations and cuts that swords, arrows, and daggers had left behind. These were the types of things she loved. Faith would sit and listen about murder and massacres all day long. Something about it seemed romantic.. People leaving their loved ones at home to protect them and then they'd end up dying. These metal suits told stories that couldn't even be imagined. She wished that each one would weave her into their web of tales.
Faith continued to slowly walk from piece to piece. She heard someone's footsteps behind her, but she didn't bother to look back at who was there. She thought back to when she was little and her father would read her bedtime stories. All of which involving the Dark Lord and his advances in the world. Faith always thought that Voldemort was a cunning man, who was also quite stupid. What is taking him so long to drive Potter insane? I could've done it in moments. She thought to herself.
While she fell into her thoughts Faith heard a voice from behind her. Faith snapped out of her thought process and turned around to see Max. '' Are you feeling okay, Max?'' Faith asked, smirking.

''Are you feeling okay, Max?''
Max thoughts were swept away..."Oh Snap! It's Faith...not Acca..." Max felt his heart beat faster and faster...he had a long-time crush on Faith...he got nervous around her sometimes....though they were best friends since...as long as Max can remember...he smiled...still a bit nervous...nervous that he may say something stupid...or do something stupid...
"Um....ya...I'm fine...ya..um...ya..." He placed his hand on the Armoured Statue...trying to act all cool...like nothing's bothering him...until...the metal dummy fell..."Oh Great! Something Stupid! Again! In front of Faith!" Max thought to himself...
"Hey Watch it! I'm trying to sleep here!" The metal armour suddenly spoke...they were magical of course...just like the portrait hung all over the school...Max quickly picked up the Armour Dummy...
"Er...sorry..." He said quietly at him still putting him back up...he quickly turned to Faith...a bit blushing...but he was smiling at her...like nothing had happened....
"So....um...Faith...what are you doing here? At this hour? Alone..." Max thought "Well at least it's a half-decent sentence..."

Faith noted his sudden change in atomosphere, how he suddenly became nervous. She seen it before with other guys and her sister, Accalia.
'' Positive? You seem a little...nervous.'' Faith told him after he accidently knocked down the statueand apologized while picking it up.
''Somehow I ended up on the Third Floor, so I came here since no one else seems too come in here much.'' Faith told him, turning the question towards him.'' Yourself?''

''Positive? You seem a little...nervous.'' Faith had noticed....he quickly replied...
"Yup...positive...it's just the...umm...cold wheather tonight..." Max thought "The cool weather? Ya right!" Max looked at the crooked Armour...he fixed it to look like it was standing straight....
''Somehow I ended up on the Third Floor, so I came here since no one else seems too come in here much. Yourself?'' Max quickly snapped his head and looked straightly at her eyes..."She's so beautiful..." He thought...he quickly shook that thought away...
"Oh...ya...why I'm here...good question..." Max mind was like strained...he couldn't think straight...he needed an alibi...something...
"Well...you know...I just love Armoured Statue...and the history behind it..." Max smiled patting the Armoured Soldier...and yet again making it fall..."Great! Another Stupid thing to add in my list!" He thought to himself...he was getting angry at himself...
"Seriously! Are you that Clumsy!" The statue began to speak again...its patience was getting thinner and thinner and all Max could say was...
"Sorry..." Max said silently...he quickly placed the statue back to its place...moving slightly away from it...he turned his head back at Faith...blushing...again...
"So...what have you been up to lately?" Max smiled...trying to hide his redness...

She cocked her head to the side, curious as to why he kept acting strange around her. Max was amuseing and she found him all the more fasinating.
Faith couldnt help but let out a laugh when he knocked over the statue...agian. Faith noticed him blush. She took a step closer to him and brought her head closer to his. Their mouths were barely touching and their gazes upon each other were intense. She carefully listened to every word he was saying, but didn't reply.

Faith went closer to Max...For a minute there...they just stood there...looking into each others eyes...there was some kind of spark to it...he dind't know how...or why...all he knew was she was the most beautiful girl in the world...that's all he knew...they stood there for about 2 minuites...then he broke it...shaking his head a bit...was she the one?
"So...umm...Faith...do you like anyone?" Max looked at her...with his joking voice...he felt normal this time...it was like he felt that they were friends...which they were...only Max could feel something else....
"Oh! Come on...you know you can tell me..." Sitting down in the middle of the floor...in an indian position...maybe there wasn't a man in her life...maybe he could get the guts to actually ask her out this time...not like the time he chickened out...he smiled at her...inviting her to sit beside her...

Faith laughed,'' I'll make you a deal. I'll tell you, if you tell me.'' She softly spoke. Her tone was light and breathy, something you hardly heard. Faith leaned into him and wrapped her arms around his neck. She brought her lips closer to his and kissed him.

''I'll make you a deal. I'll tell you, if you tell me.'' Max suddenly thought for a while....thinking if he would tell her what he really felt...suddenly....Faith went closer to him and kissed him...it was one of those moments Max will never forget...after this...Max smiled at her widely...
"I think this should be self-explantory..." Max went closer to her and kissed her back in the lips...he was no longer afraind to show his feelings to her...they both liked each other. Simple as that. After they kissed...he laughed...
"So what is this? Are...we...umm...dating?" Max asked while laughing at the same time....just the thought of that moment...made him laugh...he wasn't sure what it was....I guess they were dating...

Faith brought her hands down from his neck and crossed her arms. A smirk spread across her face and she continued to stand in front of him.
She soon watched as they drew in closer agian to the other it was intrigueing how he played his cards. She would learn his motives, his actions, and get well aquainted with her personal interest.
She continued to slowly walk down the gallery and expected him to follow. She turned around with a grin on her face and began to walk backwards. '' You tell me.''

Max stood up and started to follow Faith...smiling...she was a mysterious girl...with lots of things to figure...he smiled as he went closer to her body...it didn't feel weird anymore...liking your best friend....it felt great!
"I think we're more than that..." He kissed her softly on the lips and smiled at her...seeing what her reaction would be.
In his mind he thought of what might Acca would do....what would people think about them...he suddenly shook his head...he didn't need to think of them...he didn't care...all he thought about was Faith...and that he loves her...he had a smile drawn on his face...

A smile was rare with her and in this case it was well deserved. She had somewhat let down her guard. They had eachother's attention and she continued to walk towards him. He was alert as she spoke, which she liked. Faith only settled on talking to people when she had their full attention.
Faith cocked a eyebrow,'' And that would be?'' She wasn't thinking anymore, any standards she had set up for herself had gone out the window. She studied him as he leaned his head closer to hers. His green eyes were almost hypnotic. She couldn't wait any longer, this was moving far too slow for a girl like herself. Faith leaned into him and put her hands on his chest once more. She closed her eyes and gently kissed his lips. She slowly pulled away.

''And that would be?'' Max smirked...went even closer to her...this was one of those times where love music would come out of no where in the movies...he smiled at the thought...
"This should tell you..." Max closed his eys and kissed her...you know how the saying goes "The first kiss tells you everything about him or her"... well for Max it told him...that they're going to last forever...he smiled at Faith and laughed...laughed at the thought...that a few minutes ago...they were just best friends...but now...it's different...it's a whole new different ball game...it was not a happy-ending like in the movies...it was a new beginning...

Neither seemed to let their gaze falter a true sign of confidence in themselves. She continually pressed her smile against his. Faith felt like she was in one of those old muggle movies. The black and white ones where the lovers have one saddened farewell. They would always be in the rain, not an armor gallery. The girl would pop her leg and the guy would smother her with love. Ridiculous..
She sighed and stared into his eyes. Never had Faith let her guard down so much. She was on to make quick decisions with a witty reply to match. This was weird behavior for her.
