It wasn't like she could do much.

She turned her attention back to the candy on the shelves. Her eyes scanned the boxes and variety in the aisle they were on. "I'm partial to sugar quills myself." she said picking up some for herself. "What type do you prefer? Chocolates? Chewy? Fruity?" There really was a lot of options. It was hard to suggest things with nowhere to start.

Gaston suddenly noticed Cynthia studying his face, as if she could tell he really wasn't fine at all. He quickly dropped his gaze, but he still felt her eyes on him. It made him a bit uncomfortable! "Is it really that obvious?" he asked with a small sheepish smile as he forced himself to look back at her. He should've guessed! He was terrible at hiding his emotions, always had been, probably always would be.

He sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I suppose I'm still a little rattled from the incident with the moving staircase," he said. Okay, so "a little rattled" was a huge understatement! He left out the part about Peeves attacking him and about blaming himself for the students' injuries, but he didn't want to make things awkward for Cynthia!

Gaston was busy browsing the candy display in front of him when Cynthia said something about sugar quills. "Yes, sugar quills are nice," he agreed. But buying enough of them to feed the entire student body for the rest of the term would be expensive! "I'm a chocolate fan myself..." Though truth be told, he preferred the fancy French chocolates his mother sent him to this Honeydukes fare, but that was beside the point. "But it's not for me; it's for the students."
