"And I don't like dramas very much,'' he said. He preferred movies like Spiderman, Batman, The Hulk, Daredevil and so on. And the crime movies and series were also his favourite. "Sure, I've got a couple in my trunk. I'll get one for you later.'' Agatha Christie... "Yup, she lived ages ago,'' the boy said. "I've only read a couple of her books though.'' He made up his mind to get his hands on some more after he completed OWLs.

"There's so much music in the muggle world, you know,'' the Puff told his friend. "Broaden your horizons by listening to them,'' he added with a wink. Music was the only other world he got lost in, besides books. "Of course I know them. I think they're the best out of all the wizarding singers that I've heard.''

Jory was relieved to hear to he hadn't shown anything. He would have spent ages worrying about who else figured everything out. "Well, um...,'' he began. "I expected a bit of shouting but since we are in the library, furious whispering would be more appropriate. Or maybe you stalking out of here and not speaking to me for a while, at least.'' Yes, that's pretty much what he had expected- he certainly hadn't expected her to jump for joy either.

As Jory offered to lend her one of his books, the fifth year responded with a nod. ‘Thanks’, she finally said, before listening to him move on to another topic- music. ‘Maybe’, she answered, though actually thinking that she should start listening to more muggle music. Studying for OWLs took her mind off a bit from the whole Ari-Jory thing. But the next thing he said made the Ravenclaw start to wonder when she would get used to them acting all sentimental.

Shouting?

No. She wouldn’t have done that.

An eye roll and a cold look would have been more Gwen-like. Mehh. Anyway. ‘Well, that was one way...’ Getting out of there as fast as possible. Truth be told, she had been a little mad at Jory, but that was only when Ari talked about him for an eternity on the train ride. So no, she wasn’t actually mad at him. Or Ari. Just ehh... kind of puzzled. And turning green every time her bestie talked about the sentimental stuff. Hmph.

But anyway- back to OWLs. It looked like they were done... at least for what they had planned that day. ‘Thank you for helping me out in Muggle Studies’, Gwen told him. ‘I really appreciate it’, she said honestly. She wouldn’t have accepted to get help at this subject if it would have been someone who would have pointed out how little she knew about muggles. ‘I think I’ll have to go... Umm... guess I’ll see you around?’, she asked Jory.

Well, she had promised one of her friends that she would show her the drawings in her sketchbook later that day. And that meant that she needed to get to the Common Room in time... and then all the way down to the dungeons to meet the Slytherin... Hmm... maybe she’ll go for a walk before that? Some fresh air would be good. And a conversation with someone who wasn’t in love. Yes, as much as se liked spending time with Ari and Jory... she just... needed some time without hearing anything about mushy, sentimental stuff.
