Cosgrach waited, with a small smile and a hammering heart (what if she didn't really like it?), for her to speak. Oh. She liked it. Loved it, if he dared to say so. He was relieved and smiled at her.
"So I've observed," he said, allowing himself to be arrogant sliiightly for guessing her interests right. He eyed her cookie jar and looked as if he was going to take it for a moment, but then he refused with his head.
"No, Beverly, you've already showed gratitude by being in the top three students," he said, then paused very briefly. Yeah. His top three was in no order. It consisted of Sophie B, Beverly and Grayson. "But, if you insist it's easy to bake them and I won't be robbing you of your cookies..." He grinned. Then he could take it.
Beverly's cheeks flushed slightly at his observation. Hehe. Well. "
You have great observational skills, sir," she mumbled timidly. Yes, yes. Of all professors he was probably the only one getting to know her better.
When he refused her cookies it was evident on the Slytherin's heart-shaped face that the rejection hurt. Beverly had been SO sure he'd take the jar that she hadn't prepared herself for a possible turn down.
Nodding to what he said, she shook it off--
Wait! WHAT?
"Yes, I insist," she said, nodding quicker and vanishing that look from her face. You scared her there, Culloden. "I'm glad I made your top three students, but do you know how I got there?" She didn't wait for a reply. "Because you're a great teacher." He was. Hell, if she were to be a professor to all those runts running around she would have ended up in Azkaban for hexing them all.
Some deserved it. Some deserved a kick in the behind. Some deserved both.
