No doubt the HUfflepuff tended to put the ideas of partnering up faster then he did. Especially in potions. There the Gryffindor was too focused on not making mistakes than to think of asking....or rather begging for help.
That was an understatement. "Yeah...I guess we do." Benny found himself looking awkward and feeling weird all of a sudden at the mention of the reward. Cue bashful lion...or dragon.
"Actually..." he reached into his robe pocket where he had a few left over from DADA. Out of habit he had taken extra knowing how much of a sweet tooth Adi had before registering he might not run into him. Though he had considering sending them with Conrad. "Here-be. Thest ba forte tebl---" The third year broke off and made a face as his words came out all wrong. "Frame the fence."
Adi wondered what was going on in Benny's head right about now. He wished he really could read minds but he trailed off into his own thoughts. He was the one mostly suggesting the two partner up. It wouldn't hurt for Benny to speak up once in a while. Even though Adi liked working with as many persons as he could, he always had time for his Dragon friend.
The third year wasn't going to let this slide easily.
"Is she stalking you?'' he wondered aloud.
"I know she's crushing on you. What about you? Feel the same way?'' Questions, questions. He wasn't afraid to ask them.
Oh looky! Benny did have Chocolate Frogs! But why was he carrying them around?
"Thanks,'' Adi said happily unwrapping one.
"Why do you have these? Developed a sweet tooth, too?'' Blink. What?
"Er, your tongue doing the tango? What with "Frame the Fence?''
