Instead, she leant forward and pat the girls arm gently.
"Sshhhh... there is nothing for you to be scared about, and nothing for you to apologise for, everything's ok."
Using her free hand, she took up her wand and summoned her teapot, always full of fresh, warm, but not hot, peppermint tea. That would make Beatrice feel better right? No more tears?
Beezus bit her lower lip when the Herbology Professor patted her arm..
"I'm sorry you had to see me like this Professor." She said, as she wiped the remaining tears on her face. She was so ridiculous!
Time to shift to another topic correct? She didn't want to look anymore stupid than she was appearing now in front of Professor Bentley.
"Anyway Professor, is Professor Lafay really engaged?" That was one of the most sought after news around the school and she was a bit curious, besides it would surely take of her mind from the previous subject.
She then saw that Professor Bentley summoned her teapot and with that, she smiled widely. No more hard feelings.
