27. MUFFLIATO
Fifth Year
Arthur “Muffliato,” Arthur whispered, making sure no one could hear his and Frank’s conversation. They were sitting by the fire, and he could see Molly right in front of him, sitting at the study tables.
“She just walked out without acknowledging it,” Arthur told Frank. The flowers hadn’t worked.
Frank looked confused, “That doesn’t make sense. I was sure she would have leapt into your arms, gushing about you,” he said with a crooked, joking smile.
“Shove off. But really, I thought she liked me.”
Frank shrugged, “She does, mate. You’d have to be blind not to see it.”
“But I can’t see it. And what if she can’t?”
Another shrug, “Well you’re both blind, obviously.”
Molly looked over at them, gave Arthur a half smile, then returned to her work.
“See mate? She’s bat eye for you. Just give her the summer to think about you and if she’s not confessed her undying love for you by the end of the welcoming feast I’ll do something about it. Yeah?”
Arthur smiled, knowing full well he actually would! “Okay, deal.”
