But from the looks of him simply staring at her hand from their touch, it didn't seem like words were in much favour for this boy.
Well, this was definitely seeming to be getting more and more awkward as the moments were flying by. She studied his expressions as he was still trying to come up with a sentence to give, but as he'd said (like within her own thoughts) this was sufficiently very awkward. The second year softly responded, "...T-That..would be...bad.." Actually, not even bad, more like terrible. A look of a slight terror was in her eyes as he'd tried to make a joke of the situation with him giving her his name before he'd actually fall next time. 'That way she could identify the body..' That was definitely not funny, not to her at least. She couldn't even come up with the words of how she was feeling at this precise moment right now. But those feelings had to be put to a halt as she'd found out the older boy's name. Zander. She took notice that he'd extended & retracted his hand for a shake, which made it only a little more awkward as she was just about to hold out her own hand to meet his. Instead to cover up the awkward motion, she quickly ran her fingers through her brown hair. To be polite she spoke, "M-My name's Josette.." Okay... Maybe that joke was the wrong move... Really wrong move? He watched as she shifted uncomfortably and didn't laugh. Okay, yeah very wrong move. But he didn't know what to do, let alone what to say and he had never really talked to someone after such an embarrassing moment and this is why Zander preferred to stay all by himself and it's not his fault okay? Ah. Zander started to play with the end of his robe's sleeves uncomfortably. H-Hi, Josette..." he responded, a little relieved that she actually introduced herself instead of running away. "It's, uh, nice to meet you. I mean... not like this, but still nice... and uh... sorry about... uh... I'm not normally... I guess I just.." SPIT IT OUT, ZANDER! Jeeeez. The poor boy kept on trailing off mid sentence as his nerves kept on kicking in. This girl was probably wishing that she had run away because Zander definitely was. "Sooo...." How do you swiftly change the topic without cracking another offensive joke? "You, er, come here often?" he said shuffling his hair out of his face. DOINK. What a dweeeeeb. You come here often?! What the heck, Zander. You're trying to meet new people, not repel them. He should've asked about her book or something. Merlin. "Maybe we should step away from the edge?" He suggested moving away from where he had almost fallen over. At least he said one thing that wasn't completely stupid? That's a start.
