........

Was he... staring at her?

..Was he staring at her the whole time? Did she put her apron on wrong? Or maybe her hair had been tied in some funny way? After checking both her apron & her hair, she was a bit confused as to why he might have been staring. But what she did notice next was that his..ears were turning red & he seemed to be looling around frantically for..something? Perhaps, he wasn't feeling well & needed to go the Hospital Wing? ..Or maybe he really didn't want to be partnered up with her. "A-Are you alright?"

...

Now it was he who was being the silent one. Guess his silence said it all, that he didn't want to partner up, again she didn't blame him, she was a bit of a nervous wreck when it came to meeting new faces & socializing in general. Oh wait, it looks like he did want to partner up with her, or in his words, he'd love to. A tiny smile formed on her lips feeling happy to not be doing this entirely alone. But as he'd asked her, was she ready to give it a go? She gave a slight shrug, followed by an unslightly sure, "I-I..think so?"

Just as she getting ready to reach for the bowl, he'd stopped her when he started speaking. Apparently he wasn't a kitchen person, so he didn't really cook either. Well at least they had that in common. "I-I've..only helped baked cookies once...M-My father's never really allowed to..c-cook back home.." But Professor Hadley would be nearby if she needed her, so that was alright & safe, right? Right. So where to start. Looking up at the board she took a moment to read over the board before processing what had to be done. Taking a second to clean their bowl, she looked over at the sugar & yeast before looking back at Ethan. "U-Um..W-Would you mind p-pouring the yeast into the bowl, after I add the water & sugar?" Before waiting for an answer, she reached for the water & the sugar pouring the required amount into the bowl. Her blue eyes traveled in his direction as she waited for him to help out. "T-Then after that..W-We'll have to wait around ten minutes or so.."


What’s not to like? She’s beautiful!

Not that he’d say that out loud of course, he will definitely scare his new friend, yeah? Right. But...did she really see how uneasy he is right now? Warning bells rang in the boy’s head and commanded himself to stay calm...and cool. It’s not like something embarrassing was going to happen right? “I’m fIne.” Oh, good Merlin. Why did his voice have to make those squeaky sounds when she’s around? Ethan felt his blood rise up to his face. “I’m Okay.” Ahem. “Just looking for my friends. I don’t trust their cooking and they might set the kitchen on fire.” Lies of course. His Slytherin brethren were simply the best. He just had to play the cool card, so...sorry boys! But his voice though. MERLIN. “Sorry about this. Voice break.” He said as he pointed at his throat. No, he decided not to be ashamed of it. His voice breaking meant that he was maturing.

Hopefully.

Ethan can’t help but grin upon seeing his partner give him a small smile. See? Another reason for him to look at her. Her smile’s precious and all! The Slytherin looked away still grinning as he clapped his hands and looked at their workstation. Josette gave him his first instruction and got hold of the yeast. As soon as she added the water and sugar into their empty bowl, he added the tablespoon of yeast to the mixture. “One tablespoon of yeast, added.” Ethan grinned at his partner and waited with her for ten minutes.

Ten minutes. That’s a long time.

For Ethan at least. The Slytherin removed his wrist watch and placed it on top of their workstation so that he and Josette could keep track of the time. Well, time is important, no? Professor Cosgrach taught them that. “Well, at least you have experience in the kitchen somehow.” The Slytherin beamed at his partner. As long as his partner spent some time in the kitchen, histheir pizza is safe. Mhm. Anyway, she did mention about her father, and that he’s not allowed to cook back in their place? “You mentioned your dad. Why is he not allowed cooking?” And why is it her dad? Where is her mother? Ethan asked as he crossed his arms over their workstation and eyed their bowl of water, sugar, and yeast. Not bubbly yet.
