Chase shook his head, leaning towards her to boop her nose. “Plotting? Maeve... Maeve... what are you planning this time?” She was definitely up to some sort of mischief. “I want in.”

He chuckled at Maeve’s comment about first years and the difference between them and Beth. “Age wise yes... Maturity wise... debatable.” Speaking of girls that had crushes on him, he had the biggest hunch that the She-Snake has liked him but he also didn’t want to lead her on so he had to be a little removed. However Beth just always brought out his unnecessarily sassy side like that Headmaster that they had with the awful exercises in the morning. Heh. Chase was still proud that he had related his personality to a venomous plant.

Kam’s comment about not wishing people to ask her about her summer made Chase pause. Well that sounded... bad. He wondered what had caused her to feel that way. And then her next comment made him feel awkward. Yeah... He had guessed that she may have had feelings for him which was part of the reason why he had kept away from Maeve for a year. In the end, he... he hadn’t been strong enough to stay away. He knew that he had hurt Kam for falling for Maeve. He bit his lip and glanced at his hands momentarily. “Everything ok, Kam?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.
