"Mainly because I couldn't be bothered to make it to try-outs." She could be very lazy and she had to be in the mood to do things you know! "HA! Confidence definitely doesn't have anything to do with it." Had he not put that much together for himself yet? He preferred what? "Cricket? You mean like an insect?" That was an insect right? Her mind automatically went to his blood status. This one most likely had dirty blood... figures! "What?" What was he going on about now? She looked in the direction of the head nod and noticed a tiny bird. "That would be pretty cool." See she could play nice sometimes.
"Rude, me?" She feigned surprise and put her hand over her mouth rather dramatically. "Why are you so sure that something is bothering me anyways?" Yeah, something definitely bothering her, but she was still going to play dumb for the time being. She noticed the change in Adi that came with her duffer comment. "Struck a nerve did I?" There really was no point in arguing over the Hufflepuff duffer thing, nothing was going to change her mind. Before she could comment further on the duffer situation, the sixth year was once again laughing loudly. "I'm a..." Laugh, LAUGH, laugh. She was having a hard time getting her words out. "I'm a meanie." She was clutching at her sides as she tried to once again control her laughter. "You sure are a laugh firstie." Maybe she would keep him around for giggles. Meanie... that was a good one. She had definitely been called way worse.
She couldn't talk anymore about the duffer thing because she just knew that she would not be able to keep it together. So she just ignored the last comment that Adi made. "You and I have a very different definition of the word coward I'm afraid." Slytherins were not cowards. How was saving your own neck before somebody else cowardly? Hello!!! Nobody was going to look out for you like you. "There's a very thin line between being a coward and being stupid." She was not stupid!
"I see,'' Adi said in reply.
"I suppose you sleep in late on weekends, then? Maybe even during on class days, too?'' He wondered if it was her habit to be late for classes. He himself liked being on time for everything.
"If you say so then. But somehow I don't really think it's because you're not bothered to turn up for the try outs.'' He fixed his gaze on Hannah as if trying to finds hints of reasons on her face. As for cricket...Adi rolled his eyes in exasperation. Seriously?
"It's a sport. Ask Professor Hadley to explain.'' Maybe she'd do a class on sports and possibly focus on cricket. Educate those who were...less knowledgeable about the game.
Oh wow! This one loved to laugh, it seemed. And the extra act with her hands.
"Drama queen,'' Adi told her. Yep. Even though he knew she did it on purpose.
"I'm sure because of the look you had on your face. Sort of like you were lost in your own world.'' How many times had he seen that look on other faces? Oh and there she went again with that laughter. Adi waited patiently for her to finish.
"Do you like showing off your laugh or something?'' She must really think highly of her laugh since she was always doing it.
"And yes. Wouldn't you have reacted the same way if I said something bad about your House?'' Duh. She would.
"Or on second thought, you might have just hexed me or something.'' Slytherins. Always wanted to be the best.
"Meanie.'' Yep. 'Cos she was.
Stupid and cowardly? No, Adi believed the two were very differently.
"Saving your own skin is cowardly,'' he told Meanie firmly.
"And it's stupid.''
