SPOILER!!: Ethan
"Not bad, right?"Ethan said with a grin as Hannah took a sip of her hot chocolate. He had enjoyed his previous cup as well, but wanted to try the eggnog next. Eh.. not as good, he thought after a swig and set the cup down on the nearest table.
Speaking of tables.. "Of course.. Please, sit," he told the Slytherin girl as he gestured to one of the chairs. As he took his own seat, he leaned back and glanced at a few of the activities around the room. Were students actually lined up to meet the Headmistress? he thought as he squinted in that direction. Odd. He turned to Hannah again. "So, have any interesting dreams lately?" he asked playfully. The boy hoped she knew he was joking.. more of a reference to the task they shared in class. He knew she wasn't going to tell him anything revealing anyway.. especially when she hadn't when it was actually assigned.
Ethan turned his head in the direction of a voice calling his name. There, he spied Belle and Minerva in conversation. "Hello, ladies," he answered the two with a smile before turning back to his present company.
Then his attention was turned again when he sensed a presence approaching. "Hey, Elliot.." he returned, eyeing the girl carefully. She seemed to be up to something.. He shook that thought from his mind and mentally shrugged. She was always up to something and he wasn't giving that a second thought. He was here trying to enjoy this holiday.. uh, whatever it was.
"Very tasty." That was really an understatement. She kind of wanted another one, but she didn't need one really and she didn't want to seem like a hog in front of Ethan. She watched as he tried the eggnog. Gross! Hannah didn't like the way it looked or smelled. She tried not to cringe while he took a sip. She gave him a smirk when she realized that he too didn't seem to be enjoying it.
"Not as good right?" Well it wasn't good at all, but that was besides the point.
She gave him a half smile and took a seat next to him. Why was she nervous? This was so not Hannah. She followed his gaze to where the Headmistress had her throne set up and she actually had a line of people over there.
"A bit ridiculous huh?" she asked while she tilted her head in the direction of the line. Hannah thought highly of herself sure, but the Headmistress was out of control if you asked her. Hannah actually laughed out loud at his next question. She gave him a full on genuine smile.
"Oh you know the normal...rainbows and sunshine." She looked down at her hands.
"Must mean happiness." she said while she made eye contact once more...smile still in place.
"How about you...still planning on stomping on childrens hearts?" she said just as playfully.
Then they were interrupted.
"Popular aren't you?" She was still being playful, but anybody could see that Ethan had many admirers. He was a charming guy so she couldn't really blame them.
Then there was Elliot. She didn't say anything at first. She watched as Ethan greeted her.
"Morganzo." Oh yeah she was totally getting the last name from her. She was starting to think that Elliot was following her. Her mind wandered to the conversation that she had with her about Ethan. She knew that she wanted Cora to be with him...she made that clear. She was just talking to him anyways. She knew that was why Elliot was here... she was making sure that her plans went the way that she wanted them to go but nobody told Hannah how she was going to do anything...not even her best friend.
"Things are just peachy." she said a bit sarcastically.
"What about with you?" She tried hard to sound pleasant. She wasn't going to lose her cool. She wanted to know what Elliot had up her sleeve.
