The last thing he wanted at his last feast at Hogwarts was some pathetic larvae thinking they could steal his seat. He gave her a weak smile before he began following Ronan to the small alcove, ignoring everything that the Baron had said to him. For a ghost that could manage Peeves, he took pride upon himself that he had irritated him with one statement. I guess that's what seven years worth of practice awarded him.
He stuffed his hands inside his robe pockets as he looked at the boy, headed slightly tilted to the side. If he had been taken back by what he had said, he didn't show in his face. He had mastered the art of an emotionless expression, which aided him in his future acting career, of course. "I have a boyfriend," he spoke, not feeling an inch of remorse for being blunt. It wasn't like he had been playing hard to get these last few years. He genuinely didn't have feelings for the guy. He even hated him this time last year. But now? It was hard to hate someone that could of possibly been the reason he was alive and able to graduate in one piece. "I also don't have feelings for you, regardless of who I'm with." He was trying to be nice, okay? It was hard work. "You- You aren't as terrible as everyone thinks you are, Carter, even if you are annoying. I'll also say that you are the last person I thought would have feelings for me.... as much as we clashed over the years." A little warm smile appeared on his face as he added, "I do wish you the best in the future." He meant that, and he also meant this: "And if you tell anyone I said any of this, I will deny every word of it."
He would deny every. single. word. Welp, that was pretty much what he had expected. Well, he hadn't expected Flynn to be as nice about it, actually. Honestly, he didn't even know what had made say it. And now, he just wanted to be alone. "I'll let you get back to your friends then," he replied, walking away. He wasn't going to stick around being awkward. There was no point.
Though, it did hurt a bit. Rejection always did.
