Heh.

And hopes weren't dashed... she hadn't REALLY thought she had won something. Honestly, she was merely filling the awkward silence with idle chat. Sheesh. There was so much awkward silence sometimes. And now as the man began to speak again she felt her furrow her brows ever so slightly. "I'm going to tread lightly here... what I have to say about you unfairly taking points from me or do you want to know why I did what I did? Sir, you'll have to be a bit more specific. I have a lot of things to say about a lot of things, to be fair. "

Really... she couldn't help but think she was being set up here. If the man disagreed with her assessment he could just take more points in the name of her being "disrespectful", right? The blonde was quickly wondering whether she should discuss this at all. Oh Merlin... could she get a do over?!
Gaston half-expected Miss Umbridge to be disappointed that she hadn't won anything, but to his relief, she didn't look it. Good, the last thing he wanted to do was give the girl more cause to dislike him! His blue eyes darted back to the black and white cat behind him in the awkward silence that followed. Phantom jumped down from her condo and walked over to the girl, looking up at her with a meow; it was almost as if she was trying to diffuse the tension.

He braced for a barrage of hurtful words, but to his surprise, none came. He wasn't sure whether he should be relieved or concerned. He'd hoped Miss Umbridge would give him another chance, but that was starting to seem unlikely. He sighed sadly. "I... I understand," he said. He couldn't exactly blame her for not wanting to open up to him. "I think I know why you did, but telling me your side of the story would be a good place to start."

A long pause followed before he was able to force himself on. "I'm sure you probably won't believe me, but I promise I won't dock points for anything you say in here." No matter how much it might hurt to hear...
