And how nice of her to dress in student robes to make herself more approachable."
As the word 'professor' left Truebridge's lips, Trey felt his heart drop slightly.
"Pr..pro...Professor Truebridge?" It wasn't a question he was supposed to say outloud, but it came out anyhow.
"Umm, yeah of course, I'll get right on that drink." Then he said Anna could also get him the drink.
"Ohh, you don't want her getting you a drink. I mean it is I who owes you one. I'll, umm, I'll be right back with it." It was at that time he heard what could possibly be Anna's lifesaver. Two little words, 'teaching assistant'.
Trey took the long way from Prof. Truebridge cutting through students and up and around the Slytherin Table before sneakily making his way back to Anna. His eyes were big with excitement. Or was it anxiousness? Who really knew anymore.
"Well, I have good news and I have bad news," he said to her.
"Which do you want to hear first?" Luckily quite a crowd had gathered and they were no longer in the direct eyeline of Professor Truebridge.
