And she was a bit confused why he was blushing but she just shrugged it off. She stopped smiling when she realized why he was embarrassed and nudged him, offering him a small smile. "You should be embarrassed Theo, there's no reason to be." They were still a really good team and quite scary.
"Right...best friend. Sorry." She said with a small smile, shrugging her shoulders. "Yeah, stroked it...like a few times, actually." Which had been just a TAD weird. "Pretty? No...I don't think so...He said he was getting lint out of it only...you don't need to stroke someone's head to do that and..." Shrug. "It was just um...odd." Understatement of the year, right there.
The fourteen year old felt a bit bad about implying that West was some evil schemer and she frowned, playing with her sleeve absently. "I...no I don't think he would it's just...it was a dream and...yeah."
"
I know we're not." He sighed heavily. "
But everyone thinks we are." He'd heard snide comments from Ravenclaw recently, and they didn't settle too well. As good as the other teams were, too, Ravenclaw were Slytherin's main rival. They had BUSINESS. "
No problem." He continued to beam like an idiot. STOPIT. Yeah, inward yelling helped and he returned to his solemn expression soon after. "
Thanks, Ella." He smiled again. Somehow, he had to make this less awkward. "
I mean Ellawoman." YEAH, immature superhero chat FTW!
"
Sooooooooooo..... like any Hufflepuff gossip I should know about?" He asked randomly. COS he hadn't shown an interest in those guys lately. Too much snake love in his life.
A few times? Wow, way to be subtle, West. "
OH... well, if there was something in your hair then it is perfectly understandable, right?" He ignored talking more about the 'prettiness' of her hair. That was how this WHOLE situation started in the first place after all. Odd.... yeah.... "
Well." He shrugged rather abruptly, "
I totally had nothing to do with it." COUGH.
"
Do you want me to buy you a dream catcher? I mean, I dunno if they work," He paused, thinking about how his mum used to have one a few years back. They actually creeped him out majorly. "
But I can get you one cos I don't want you dreaming bad stuff about West." Cos they were both his besties you know.
