Testosterone, heh. Yea, that tended to happen among teenage boys. Especially when they were talking about girls he liked. What? Huh? Who said that, not Austin. Nope. That was totally NOT what Austin was thinking at all. The blue eyed boy's ego increased as The Blonde Queen said she was impressed with him. Hopefully she actually meant that. It was nice for someone to be impressed with what he did. He tried to get that out of the potions professor, although he wasn't sure he got that. Austin just tried too hard. "Just say the word and I'm there, M'lady. And besides, I'll be able to beat up anyone with my amazing new arms from detention!" He pulled up the sleeve of his arm and flexed, showing her his not so buff arm. The detention was brutal, but worth it.
Wait.. was Austin.. flirting?
Nah, he couldn't be. Austin didn't flirt, mainly cause Austin didn't like girls. No way. There was no reason for Austin to be flirting, and anyone who heard him should hush him that moment. To him, it seemed that he wasn't flirting, but more... making a fool out of himself. And what did she mean when she said there were things she didn't mean? Which part was she talking about, because there were a lot of things said that night.
"Uh.. Yea.. me too." Austin's tears had dried, but his cheeks were red now. Although he didn't know what Ophelia was talking about, he was talking about calling her a sister. Even though he did agree that they were close, he didn't see her as just a sister. He saw more in her than he wanted to let on. Glancing down at the peace offering gummy bears, he grinned his evil grin, the one that let people know something was going to happen. The boy took the bag from her hand, and poured the rest of the gummy bears in his mouth. He instantly knew it was a bad idea, as they all started sticking to the inside of his mouth, but it was too late to quit. He looked like a chipmunk with his mouth full, but he slowly chewed the rest of the gummy bears and swallowed. "Now what?"
If detention meant that Austin got buff arms and they got to talk near a statue, Ophelia was all for making him get more detentions. However, that was wrong. Which meant that these detention arms were probably the only ones she was going to look at. Not that this was a bad thing Okay, what was she even going on about now?
"M'lady? And they say chivalry is dead." The blonde paused and smiled. "And if you need anyone put in their place, you tell me." And with that, the twelve year old stuck out her arms and flexed, ignoring the uniform that was sightly too big over her baby muscles. That didn't mean she wasn't strong. Ophelia could jump on peoples backs and throw stuff at their head and climb and drop down like a koala bear.
Me too? Was that about the sister thing? Because if so, she totally felt the same way and didn't know how to explain it to him. Was there like a bat signal for this? What would the symbol for I messed up and I don't see you like a brother please get the stupid hint before I rip my curl hair out of my head? Aggression? There was no good way to explain it without outright explaining it, and there was no way she was doing THAT! Because the words would get tied up in her throat and she would helplessly choke on them while he sat and watched. No, the Ravenclaw wasn't being overly dramatic this time.
"All hail the new gummy bear champion!" And with that she moved so she was kneeling and pretended to bow to King Blue Eyes. He looked like he was struggling a bit, but then again, eating a bunch of gummy bears would do that to a person. The grey eyed girl just hoped he wouldn't choke. She didn't know CPR or any of that stuff and running to the Hospital Wing would take too long. She held her breath until he swallowed all of the candy and then let it out in a sigh before giving her friend a golf clap. He deserved it.
"Well, we could go and rob a bank, find something to draw on and go wild, do more exploring or play Would You Rather. But those are my lame options."
