Quickly, Ruby looked up and scanned the room for the culprit. At once, she noticed a boy staring at her (so now he would get punched, too), his eyes full of fear. Ruby narrowed her eyes at him, reached down to pick up the marshmallow and then walked over to him.
He was sprawled on the sofa as if he were a king but apparently he didn't know where his mouth was for he had hit her instead. Brandishing the marshmallow at him, she glared.
"Think it's funny, don't you, throwing food at people?" She said dangerously.
Braeden watched with wide, horrified eyes as the girl - who now resembled a lion on the hunt - sat up at the speed of light, her eyes opening in a way that let him know she had
not been asleep at all. And which gave him the impression that she was ready to kill.
As the fiery redhead made her way over to him, Braeden had to try his best not to get up and jump out the nearest window. Instead, he quickly shoved his bag of marshmallows between the cushions of the couch, where she would never see them and therefore never find any relation between him and the marshmallow that had hit her.
"I... have no idea what you're talking about," said Braeden innocently in response to the lioness's question. Throwing food? What food? He didn't even have any food on him! "I've never seen that marshmallow before in my life, I swear," he quickly added, a little too desperately to really give off the impression that he was innocent. But GAH. This girl scared him.
Cautiously, Braeden looked around the common room just to make sure there were witnesses around, in case the lion-like girl decided to, y'know, kill him.
