Precautions. Yes. That was needed. So before any of the girls got talking again, he stuffed his hand inside his robe pocket, flicked his wrist, subtly casting the Muffliato Charm around them. No need for eavesdroppers. GAH!
Now, truly recovering from Sophie's comment he was stumped once again when she mentioned Eve and Sierra. Merlin. That didn't even sound right. "That was a misunderstanding," he said a bit tightly, attempting to not lose his cool. His private life was something he appreciated staying private. "And this in no way involve either of you. It's between Sierra and I." He exchanged stern looks between the two. Did they understand?
He didn't want to play bad-Auror here, but...he was technically on the job. One he took seriously. Kennedy couldn't afford to get caught in the middle of little girl rivalry or distracted by it.
She was actually pinning this on her?! Beverly SCOWLED at Newell. "I wouldn't have said anything if you'd kept your mouth shut," she grumbled. Calling Kennedy 'uncle' was what had pushed her buttons, and she wished she could take it back. But she couldn't and now he was mad at her. AGAIN.
Thanks a lot, loser!
Wrinkling her nose and turning it up in the air, she pretended to not hear what Kennedy was saying. She's heard this several times already. "She started it." Stupid Newell. Where was a troll when you needed one.
Kennedy wasn't really mad at HER. No, Bev KNEW he wasn't because he just didn't have it in him. It was impossible. The same reason why he had not grounded her for what she had done in the first place. Knowing this, and full on intending to exploit it, the Slytherin slowly turned her gaze back at him, blinking at him with WIDE BIG eyes. Take that!
Sophie instinctively grew more alert as soon as Kennedy's wand was drawn. He was an Auror. He was allowed to use that thing at free will, wasn't he? She almost thought she and Beverly might end up dangling from the ceiling from their ankles if they pushed too many of his buttons.
But apparently that wasn't what Kennedy had in mind.
Sophie relaxed a bit at the Muffliato Charm. Wise move, Kennedy. Wise move.
"Misunderstanding?" she asked him.
"Well, you'll have to educate me a little if I was supposed to take 'his other girlfriend, Eve' in any other way than how I did." Misunderstanding? Riiiiiiiight.
"So naturally, I told Aunt Sierra the whole story." She had even told her about how it all started with her trying to gain possession of Cutty's wand. That part wasn't important now, though.
He wanted things to stay just between he and Sierra? Riiiiight, because Sophie knew things, and he didn't like that, did he?
Then...
Beverly started going on and on and on about total nonsense. Sophie started this? NOPE. Sophie started to say something when she noticed that look of innocence Beverly gave Kennedy. WHATEVER. If Kennedy fell for THAT, he was just nothing more than a Hufflepuff! So Sophie did the one thing any good Slytherin would do...
She sloooowly turned to look at Kennedy and blinked at him with wide, bright blue eyes. The same way Beverly did.
Now what, Mr. Cheater?!
