Now Caleb KNEW Cutty was lying!
"Not true, I don't have an ounce of fat on my body!" Caleb declared boldly, knowing quite well that wasn't entirely true, but still, he didn't need to lose weight. Nope. Gain muscle, maybe...
"Is there a point to all of this?" he asked him, laying his head back down on the pillow. There HAD to be if Cutty was telling him all these lies and nonsense, trying desperately hard to keep his attention.
A clearly repressed chortle of laughter made itself known when Caleb reacted to the criticism over his physique. Someone was a bit sensitive about their weight. But anyway, Cutty wasn't trying to make Caleb feel bad about anything, only to motivate him.
Which was proving to be a harder task than Cutty reckoned it would be.
"
Caleb A. Newell. We need to getchyer a gehl! And no one likes a lazy bum. So quit makin' it hard!" He said addressing the blanket cocoon that was his prefect. "
Coom 'ed! Yew'll like running on Castle property I promise." And maybe, maaaybe Cutty would show Caleb his ill-begotten OWL notes. If it was one thing he knew Caleb Newell found irresistible it was success. And if one could guarantee it all the better. Although, maybe his Gryffindor parents beat this out of him with a steady diet of 'cheating is wrong'.
