So as it was the very second he began telling his story the slightly taller yet still small girl was all ears. Hady listened so intently to him that a bomb probably could've gone off at their feet and she wouldn't have even noticed. Well alright that's a small exaggeration right there but still it was close.

Not as sound was made from her except for a tiny gasp when she realized how serious a situation her best friend had been in. The use of her name towards the end of his story and the simple fact that he had to have said that he was lucky to get out had her frowning a little. Reaching over she gave him a light smack to his upper arm (since she didn't want to actually knock him into the water). "I swear if you would've died I would've found a way to bring you back and harm you myself." Her feelings were a jumble right then. Anger, sadness, maybe even a bit of fear and slightly annoyance even were all being felt. As quickly as one feeling mad an appearance it was shoved aside by another. The 'threat' she gave was meaningless really and it showed as she quickly pulled him into a hug with a quiet, "I'm glad you're alright," before letting him go and sitting back. Scars were one thing but losing ones life was a whole other story.

"Thanks," Hady grinned at him. Not that she even needed it. She would do well. No doubt about it. She did really appreciate it though. "Don't worry it's nothing bad. Just if you seeing me crashing and burning due to everything I'm taking on this term, yell at me?" Yes, Zeke, she had just given you permission to yell at her.


The light in his eyes probably shone brighter as he savoured Hady's reaction. She was hooked, as hooked as he had been to the feeling of adrenaline coursing through his veins. And the cherry on the proverbial cake, was Hady's physical response of smacking him one - albeit, lightly. He grinned. "I'll keep that in mind for next time," he mused in reply, accepting Hady's hug by returning the gesture, his arms around her. "Me too." As fun as all the danger had been, he valued his life and so surviving was a thing he would have to keep doing. He wasn't done with this world yet, he still had many more things to accomplish before welcoming death.

Shifting slightly where he sat, he smiled at his Slytherin friend. She was biting off a lot, classes alone filled up many hours of ones day, everything else on top was just that, EXTRA. Yelling at her though, "I can do that, but I can also do better," he replied with a sincere expression on his face. "I'll help where I can." He wouldn't let her drown in it, he'd sooner spray her face with water.
