He wasn't entirely serious. But it was the sort of thing he tended to do. Expect the worst, get the worst you know?
"Secondly, Carter? Gryffindor in your year right?" He didn't really want to ask what happened but... "Whatever happened there, do you think its fair to measure me up against that? Do you reckon its right to expect me to mess up because someone else did? Thats not cool and I get that... if its an issue for you or whatever, its something you've gotta face but, it shouldn't be something that I have to face." Right? He gave her an earnest look.
"But I guess I'm glad you told me how you felt, just don't get so wrapped up in all that so you end up driving people away."
Not that he was going anywhere.
As soon as Jimmy started talking Marie instantly regretted opening her mouth at all. So much for honesty in a relationship... it seems the only thing it gets is the other person mad at you. Well for her that's what it gets anyway.
"I'm not asking you to change who you are. I knew when I started dating you what you were like... I just didn't think it would bother me so much to see you flirting with other girls because I would know you were my boyfriend. I was wrong though, it did bother me. Maybe it wouldn't have mattered so much if you would have thought to introduce me to your friend... or acquaintance or whatever she is, but no, you went off to talk to her and just left me standing there. I would have never done that to you. I'm proud to call you my boyfriend and I want all my friends to know about you. That includes all my guy friends." She could feel the tears stinging her eyes but she refused to let them fall. She was not going to let James see her cry over this. Really? He'd do something just to be stubborn.
"So is that your way of telling me that if I start to feel insecure in any sort of way, or tell you how I'm feeling you're gonna cheat on me? Thanks, that makes me feel so much better."
As if what he had already said to her wasn't bad enough he just had to continue.
"I don't expect you to mess up just because Carter did, and I wasn't trying to compare you to him. I just wanted to let you know why I was feeling the way I was. I'm sorry I assumed you cared. Don't worry, from now on I'll face my issues on my own." Heck, maybe she would break down and go talk to Lafay.
She again pulled her legs up only this time she rested her head on her knees facing away from Jimmy. She could feel the tears starting to fall and she didn't want him to see them.
Oh,
now he says he guesses he's glad she told him how she feels? And then he ruins it. She looked back over at him with tears visibly running down her face now.
"Is that what I'm doing? Pushing you away... just because I was honest and told you how I felt?" Again, so much for honesty in a relationship. It seems not only does it get someone mad at you but it pushes them away from you too.

POW! It hit (Tegz) a Ravenclaw boy square in the chest. Ganymede ran up to him, "Sorry mate! You're a great goalie, didn't let the ball go past." The ball was now rolling away into the bushes.
Ganymede began patting the boys chest, "I didn't break anything did I?" She asked hesitantly. There was a Slytherin girl with him, Ganymede hoped she'd help keep things friendly. ::

Jim, distracted by his girlfriend and all, hadn't even registered anyone nearby, let alone with a ball. And now, astonished, he glanced down at his chest as this kid patted at him.
So... should he pretend like he was hurt and needed booboo kisses? He eyed Marie and then looked at the kid again.
"Nah. I'm fine. Its not like it was a bludger." He paused, "That was a pretty good shot... if you were aiming for me at least." He grinned.
As if out of nowhere there was a little girl there with them... patting James on the chest asking if she broke anything. Looking over at Jimmy to make sure he was alright she wiped her tears on the sleeve of her robes then put her head back on her knees... facing away from James and the little girl. She wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone new right now.
