And then there was the tilting of the head aimed in his direction.
The seventh year couldn't help the curious look that crossed his face as his housemate mentioned having an idea. Could he help her? Adi hadn't put her up to this...right? Given the fact he would know that Benny would be inclined to help someone, especially a housemate and especially given the theme of this year's school term. Not to mention the involvement of a DRESS in the thick of things.
"Um...sure...if I can" he said finally squatting down closer to his fellow lion and her project. "Um...what kind of help would you need?"
Really? He would help out. Great. Now what exactly did she want him to do? Wearing the dress would have actually been pretty funny but he had agreed to help her so she should be nice to him. But it would be a fun story to tell everyone. Benny in a dress.
She stood up with the dress in her hands. He was tall enough that if he was to wear it she could easily work on it. She held the dress up and looked at him and back at the dress.
"Here you go. Take it." She handed it over to him,
"It won't take but a few minutes to finish it." She'd be fine with it faster than it would take for him to put it on. She promised then they could go back to whatever they had to do.
She flopped back in the floor and started to finish the hem. Easy pleasy.
