Aspen wasn't one exactly get her feelings hurt, but it did gnaw at her a little that he had been too busy with cats and prefects to spare a second for her. "How did you even know I made it on the train? Dad's not here." OR anywhere nearby, "we have to watch out for each other." So far, Aspen was doing all the watching and West was making it HARD.
Why was West continually surrounded by people peeing? Aspen had been at Hogwarts for over two years now and had never once come across someone peeing. West had been there...two days? And had two pee stories.
She patiently, again, listened to him explain about the incompetent librarian - according to West. "If you need a book, you can ask me. Remember me? Your big sister?" Aspen didn't have much use for a librarian anyway, and was pretty sure West didn't either - except for someone to TALK at.
Aspen was still making him hold the flowers until she was sure he had thought long enough about how he'd made her FEEL, but she was unthawing a LITTLE. Around the edges. She unfolded her arms and reached out to inspect a spot on his robes. "You cannot see my room. We're in different Houses." Paaaause. "Did you say you signed up for Quidditch?"
...had he asked? They wouldn't let first years on the team, right????
It would have? He thought about that.
"Because you always do everything right." West answered immediately. Of course she'd made it on the train. She was Aspen! But he deflated in an obvious sort of way. Like the flowers. He RESOLVED immediately though, that he WOULD look out for Aspen. He would try his BEST!
"I'll ask you. I want one on Athanasius Kircher."
... but he WANTED to see her room. "So you can't see my room
either? Never ever?" West sucked his bottom lip in, something he did to stop it from wibbling like a baby's lip did.
"Yeah I did!" Quidditch yeah!
