And now he got her curious about this. "If we don't meet in Hogsmade, each one of us should bring the other a pack of wizard gum," Louisa added grinning at Adam, it was nice to make silly things with friends. She wanted to get her mind off the tension and this seemed like a good way.
Louisa frowned when Adam suggested that she might want to end things. "I don't think she wants that. You're great. She's lucky to have you." Yep. No girl should ever think about dumping her friend. NONE. "But yeah, you probably should investigate about this." As much as she wanted to know more and talk about this, she didn't want to push the boy. If he wanted to tell her, he would. And if he wanted some help, he probably knew she was there for him... if he didn't know then she would smack him. Hehe. But he did.
"He is." She blinked. Was he? Well, she assumed he was, she never saw him but.. where else would he be? "I didn't see him but I think he is in here. He didn't tell me anything about leaving school." Pause. "I saw a week before the Express and all was good." She hesitated a bit before adding, "D-do you think something came up and he couldn't make it to Hogwarts?" DID HE KNOW SOMETHING? "Adam.. are you hiding something from me?" She gave him a sharp look.
Boys should really stop this secrets thing.
"That's a great idea!" Adam said with a nod at Louisa's Hogsmeade idea.
"Perhaps we can surprise each other with an eccentric flavor or something." Yeah, that would be nice. Of course Adam was assuming that they would meet up at Hogsmeade at some point once they were allowed to go there. After all, that's what friends did, right?
When Louisa mentioned that Rubiey was lucky to have him, Adam couldn't help but have his cheeks flush slightly red. He was hoping that Louisa would notice, so he quickly rubbed his face.
"Yeah...it's just. I don't know," Adam said with another shake of the head.
"If there's anything I've learned over the years, it's best just not to think too much into anything until you know all the facts. Of course, it's hard to know all the facts when you can't talk to the person." Adam was silent for a couple of moments. Finding Rubiey. That was going to be his objective. Yep.
Adam suddenly realized that perhaps his comment had been taken a bit in the wrong way. He sat there, listening to Louisa as a certain level of panic was starting to rise in her voice. And then it came. Secrets. Was he keeping secrets from her?
"Louisa, what secret would I be keeping from you?" Adam asked, feeling himself getting somewhat defensive.
"I never speak to Joao, but you do, so obviously you would know much more about the situation then I would." He shot a look at a bird that landed on the ground near them, observing it while inwardly cursing himself for letting his amusement at the convo with Paulie show outwardly. Now Louisa was going to think he was up to something even though he wasn't. UGH.
