Taking a seat on the floor she closed the door, noting the place was still packed to the brim. "Hey.." She said softly to Liz, "Uh...what's going on?" She looked at the door when she heard that Rose had returned. "I'm just as lost as you are," she told her while she raised her brow. She turned her attention back to Reese and Jake and waited for further explanation. Quote:

But then, it just seemed more rock star to be above it all. Finally giving up on keeping Bella restrained, she let the cat crawl off her lap as she nodded when Lima agreed with her about liking the exams. Grinning, she spoke. "Of course I have the right idea. I'm a Ravenclaw, remember? Isn't that like part of our house requirements?"
She glanced over at Reese as the younger girl spoke about where she lived, and smiled. "See? At least you have the option, whether you choose to do anything about it." Her smile grew a bit bigger as the Slytherin responded to her comment about wher she lived. "Yeah. My father's in the army, so we used to actually move around a lot. But we've been lucky enough lately that we've been able to stay in California for several years now. It's fun, cause we live on the beach." She tilted her head in curiosity as Reese then added that she'd have to wait to visit. "Why?," she asked, before she trailed off as several discussions started up.
Including talks about candy, and Jake continuing to try and scare Reese with his baby tarantula. As chaos broke out, shortly after Lima had disappeared, Elizabeth reached out to snag Bella's collar. She didn't want her cat to accidentally get hurt on the off chance anything happened. And therefore was distracted, looking up again as she heard Jake talking about getting kicked before yelling for Lima. And as the ex-Huffie returned bearing loads of candy, only to get involved with finding out what had happened, she gently dragged her cat back into her lap, stroking her to appease her and keep her in place. Which was a good thing, since the compartment door opened again, and Rose walked back in.
She looked back at the Gryffie as the girl sat down by her. "Hey," she said in return. "Not really sure. I mean, Jake was trying to get Reese to look at his tarantula, but I'm not really sure what happened after that," she replied, feeling a little bad about the fact she hadn't been paying attention. She snorted at that comment about her House. "Yes, you are the brainy ones. But we Puffs are the hard workers." She smiled and never bothered to correct herself. She wasn't a Puff anymore, but she didn't care. "But the best House is SlytherPuff. Everyone knows that." She nodded. Quote:

"Reese kicked me and Charlie and they're trying to blame me," Jake stated matter-of-factly, nodding towards each person as he spoke of them. "So mean," he added, in a scandalised tone. She shook her head at him. "I'm sure you meant well, Jake. But you know how scared she is of those things. You should have respected that." She was speaking gently.
Then she rubbed her chin and thought of how she could explain what torment meant in a way that he would understand. She knew how hard it was for him to get what a crush was afterall. "Torment means to annoy. Or to harm or scare. You scared her with the spider when you knew she was afraid of the things." |
