Horrible days she can't even bring herself to remember. Though it was only when she was a firstie. She kinda was perky and all. Still is but her Snake traits have surfaced or become more noticeable. Still, she never was a bully. Not if no one provoked her she wouldn't lash out. Except when she felt moody. She tried to keep to the dorms during her moody times. Point was, she had no idea why the boy looked freaked out. Was it her hair? Was it that horrible. She had her doubts about tying it that way.
"Umm..Nice to meet you Forrest," She said hesitantly. Not that he seemed to be pleased by meeting her. She tried not to take it personal. But hold on..His name sounded familiar. She couldn't pinpoint where she had heard it though. Probably during classes or so.
She waited for Forrest to say what he was doing but he just stuttered and blushed. Oookay. Her eyebrows rose questioningly. Did not this boy seem suspicious? What was he doing? She really was curious now. Seemed like a top secret thing.
Cassia took a step closer to him and bent her midsection so her head was level with Forrest's. "Here's a tip. If you are trying to hide something. Just make something up and don't stutter." She told him. No harm in sharing her experience with the youth. "Like let's practice now, just say anything. At the top of your head. Doesn't have to be true." Actually it'd be smarter if it wasn't true. That's the idea.
Talk about corrupting the youngsters.
Yeah of course, a vulnerable Hufflepuff to bully. Of course it was nice to meet him.
"Nice to meet you too," he managed to say despite his fear and prejudice, because he felt the necesity to return the compliment. Or else, what manice THIS Snake had?
He gulped when she leaned forward like that, and inclined backwards sliiiiightly. Was she going to cur--
Gulp gulp gulp. "Y--yeah, um... ahem... I, uh, I'm here for... homework..."
Funny, wasn't it, how he was right fixed to the place whereas he should have run away long ago?
