Young, But Oh So Tempting (Naomi)

Taylor was sitting in his favorite chair in the common room after a trying day of classes, and (like a lot of teenage guys) found himself thinking about girls. He'd dated around a little at Hogwarts starting last year, but had yet to find somebody that he'd really gotten along well with. Who was also hot. Because, well he figured since he worked hard to get his muscles he was deserving of a sexy girl. The thing was, a lot of the really attractive ones were taken, and even though he was many things he wouldn't break up relationships and cause drama like that.

Letting out a sigh, he briefly looked over his assigned reading for History of Magic, making an effort to commit some of the important facts to memory. He was about to give it up and turn in for the night when he saw a third year come in, Wilson he thought her name was, though he couldn't remember her last year. She may of been a third year, but Taylor knew she'd been held back and could see she was really starting to come into her own, developing some lovely curves even though she was still rather short. Young, but oh so tempting. Taylor did his best to squash that thought though, it wouldn't do to start getting hard in the middle of the common room, after all. "Looks like puberty did you good Wilson. Still slumming it with that weird Hufflepuff kid?" he asked, not even attempting to hide it as he checked her out with a smirk on his face. In his opinion, she had a lot of potential and might even be interesting enough to actually date if he could convince her.

Taylor listened to her, not surprised she reacted the way she did. He'd seen lots of guys try and fail to get her attention before after all, but he merely chuckled when she told him puberty wasn't as kind to him. "You see, if you could have actually said that convincingly it might have worked. But, I'm rather good at noticing when people are lying." he said, unfazed by the cold response and taking a seat across from her. He wasn't going to just let it go after her saying that, after all he was one of the more well thought of in Slytherin and this just wouldn't do.

Part of him was tempted to make fun of that Hump-me kid or whatever his name was a little more, but even he thought that would be cruel and decided to take a different route. "Look, I'm sorry. Sometimes I say stupid things around pretty girls. That was rather rude of me, though." he said, holding out his hand. "I'll be nice if you will. Deal, Naomi?" he asked, finally remembering her first name. Taylor didn't always remember everyone's names, so he was rather proud of himself for recalling it.

Taylor listened to what she had to say and raised his hands up in surrender. "Hey, we all have our failings. Tact is one of the things I'm trying to work on." he admitted, knowing that he often spoke before he thought things through. It was something he was pretty sure they had in common, as he'd either witnessed or heard about her saying hurtful things to people more than once. Sure, some of it was intentional, but he doubted all of it was thought through before hand. In all honesty, the way she stood up for herself was part of what he found appealing about her.

The accusation of this being a simple trick he used on girls made him frown, not the least of which because he would never do something so obvious and easy to see through. Taylor felt his comment about her friend had been below-the-belt and was just trying to make amends. "Believe it or not I was actually sorry for what I said." he replied, before sighing. "The reason I spoke up was because I was wanting to get to know you some, maybe even ask you out to Hogsmeade for the next weekend. But, since you're clearly not interested..." he trailed off, as he stood up to leave her alone.

"Well, yeah. You've got a lot more fire to you than most of the people in this snake pit. I'm curious." Taylor said with a shrug. He'd stopped and looked back at her. She might not believe it, but he was actually telling the truth right now. It didn't hurt that she turning into a sexy girl, but he didn't need to tell her that part too in his opinion. He'd learned his lesson after the first time trying to pay her a compliment on her looks.

When she continued to talk he smiled and found his seat across from her again, leaning back and getting comfortable. "Alright, so is this hour of your valuable time starting now since you aren't saying yes to Hogsmeade?" Taylor asked. Instead of answering she threatened him, making him chuckle just a little. Inside though, he was all too aware she meant exactly what she said, and could probably do it.

"I hear you loud and clear. Got nothing against him really he's just so...innocent and happy all the time. It's different, is all." Taylor said, shrugging. He figured it was time to change the subject though, because he hadn't come over to talk about the Hufflepuff. "So what do you like to do, aside from threaten guys trying to flirt with you that is?" he asked.

Taylor snorted at that, knowing she had a point but that's not what he was getting at. "You'd stick out no matter the house, you're the spitfire type. I mean it as a compliment." he said, raising his hands up after he realized that may have come across poorly. He wasn't the best at phrasing things, especially to moody girls that he was still trying to get a bead on. Sometimes he was smooth...others, crashed and burned.

Upon hearing that she was literally timing him by the hour he was tempted to ask what else she did by the hour, and whether or not he had to go through her pimp to arrange the meeting. Luckily, his brain engaged in time to stop him from blurting that out, and Taylor just gave her a curious look. "Okay. What's your favorite book?" he asked. He wasn't going to waste his time if she was so serious about it.

He'd gotten the message, and let the conversation move away from her blonde friend with the messy hair. Taylor listened as she explained some of what she liked, nodding along. "Understandable. I like to run too, but I do it at the Quidditch Pitch when I get in my flying practice. Also play chess, though not great by any means. What I really like about Hogwarts is, well, all the different pretty girls." he admitted, shaking his head to clear it of daydreams. "How about a game of chess to spend our time, though?" he asked, since she liked it.
