"Siccus Aerous." After tracing the next two tiny clockwise circles along the length of Lex's robes, Alice quickly shot another water-making spell at the fourth year, then ducked below the table to take cover.
Because surely she was going to get splashed back now.
Did she really think Lex was going to fall for that face? Obviously not. How many years had she known her now? A lot, okay not a lot but enough. Then there was the fact that she'd drenched her only minutes before. Her memory wasn't nearly that bad.
"You know what I mean." Lex said, making faces at her. We don't listen to innocent clueless faces, nope. Of course in this case she had no choice but you know, in general.
Alexa beamed at what she thought was a compliment.
"Well I am pretty brillia--hey! No! Nope. New target." Buttering her up wouldn't work either. Offering candy would though but SOME PEOPLE decided she needed reduced amounts for Quidditch reasons. Bah.
She watched as her robes were made dry again but before she could give any suggestions Alice had her wand raised again and her robes were being splashed with water.

Lex's wand flew up immediately but before she could return the favour Alice was under the table.
"Not very Gryffindor of you Cap'n, that hiding look doesn't suit you." And of course she was left to get herself dry AGAIN.
"Siccus Aerous!" Heeeeyyyy, even less water left this time!! It was almost completely dry. You could hardly tell.
