Lyra didn't want to say much after that since there seemed to be people in the hallway and she needed to calm down. It seemed as though there was something else going on and when Professor Shackleton left her office, she seemed upset but...ohhhhhh the Hufflepuff kid maybe? It definitely didn't seem as though there was something wrong with Fabian but, she would have to ask as soon as she saw the professor again, but now, it was Robert who she needed to speak too.
"We...need to talk," she said as her smile was slightly forced but, she was still smiling none the less. "There is something that has happened that...I believe in telling the truth and coming out clean."
Robert nodded slowly as Lyra spoke.
I know you mean well... the
but part of that sentence left hanging in the air. This seemed familiar to him somehow.
As he tried to comfort her his attention was drawn to the kids down the hall and at her words his brow furrowed and he nodded slowly, "Umm...sure." Something that she needed to come clean about? He nodded down the hall, "Let's go to the Room of Requirement. It's too cold outside." And it was quieter where no one who happened to overhear could misjudge. He wrapped his arm around her though it didn't feel quite the same. He was unsure of what was going on but he had a feeling this wasn't going to be a good thing. Or would it?
