 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Rachel giggled at Azura. Despite the situation of a broken nose being talked about, the idea of her friend tripping yet again was funny. "Oh, I don't know. You could probably sing or talk or prod someone so you get their attention. But then you might scare them into thinking you're a ghost.'' She then smiled. "I knew you would. Are you two close friends? I saw you and him spending quite a bit of time together.'' Rachel adjusted herself more comfortably on the bed only to see Haddie's mouth open and close repeatedly.
She was rather confused by the reaction. Had she said something wrong? "Haddie? What's the matter?'' She blinked as her friend rushed off for the door. What had she done?
"David is a second year Ravenclaw,'' she explained to Azura as she slid off the bed. "I haven't an inkling as to why Haddie reacted like that.'' She was torn between going after the girl or staying put. She hovered uncertainly as she tried to make up her mind. "I think Haddie possibly does not like David.'' It would the only logical explanation. "Oh, no. I think I've offended her, Azura.'' She needed to cheer Haddie up; make it up to her.
The Eagle bit her lip. "Perhaps I should make her favourite food as an apology. Or maybe I should tell her I dislike David. No, that would be a lie because I don't. I just know I can't let her stay upset at me.'' She was babbling as she was unsure of what to do. "Oh, I know! A prank! Haddie loves pranks. It'll make her feel better if she has a good laugh.'' Rachel didn't like them but it didn't matter. As long as her best friend didn't stay mad at her.
Rachel scooted over to her trunk, flung the lid open and retrieved a tube of sparkling, bright pink glitter. She bustled over to Haddie's bed to pour the tube's contents all over the girl's pillow. Then, she changed the colour from pink to white using magic so that it blended in with the pillow. "You girls can keep a secret, I trust,'' she said giggling. "She'll have pink hair when the spell wears off.'' Rachel hoped Haddie's humour would help them get over this mild misunderstanding. |
