"
Uhm..good...day Professor Newlin," Not really a good day if truth be told. If she was in a tad bit high spirit, she would've commented on how the woman was lying on the dirt. Fortunate enough for the new Professor, she won't be receiving any curious words from the Ravenclaw. With that greeting, she turned to join her peers. Then she saw him...and the Head Girl.
Should she gooooooo?
Yeah, definitely. Why not? They were all under the same house, they were friends...and...and..
"O-okay.." she muttered, more to herself before walking over to the pair.
"Hi Louisa," Nod to the Head Girl. Then,
"...Spike." She stared at him for a while but immediately looked away. Their conversation from last night was suddenly ringing in her ears.
Maybe it wasn't a very good idea to join them.
He knew she'd be here. Of course she would, she loved animals like he did. It was one of the reasons that her liked her so much...and why last night had happened. Spike's stomach sank at the thought, and he let out a small sigh as he distractedly started doodling in the dirt again, his expression hidden by his curls.
Except...she'd said she didn't want to lose him. And much as he wanted to turn a blind eye, and forget that last night had happened, and ignore that aching feeling in his heart...he couldn't. She meant a lot to him, and if that could only be in a brotherly role, he'd somehow force himself to forget he'd ever thought about her in any other way. Eventually.
It had to start somewhere, and despite last night's tears, she was here happy to talk to him. Biting his lip to stop it from wibbling, Spike slowly raised his gaze.
"Beezus," he said quietly, looking up momentarily from his dirt picture, his cheeks warm from he wasn't sure what. Embarrassment, maybe? His stomach fluttered, and immediately he dropped his eyes once more.
Why did it hurt so much?
