Hehe...he had the biggest stash of chocolate in his office along with other sweets and heavily guarded of course.
Marcus sighed deeply, she probablywasn't going to like his answer. "Well yeah I guess I did but you have to understand Reese, that I have been trying to help Jake out for weeks but he just won't listen to me and he constantly gives me attitude. I kinda got fed up with it and hung him from the ceiling in the dueling arena." Of course he left out the bit about the underwear.
Okay so don't give Jake Upstead any sugar, not that he would anyway. The kid was too hyped up as it was and he knew from first hand experience what a sugar rush can do.
He looked at Reese and burst out laughing, "You're just saying that so as to not hurt my feelings." Marcus looked at the packet of pasta and grinned stupidly, "It's really rather...dry." He smacked his lips and ran his tongue around the inside of his mouth. "I think I need a drink. What about you Reese?" he pushed off the wall and stood beside the young girl. "I'm glad you're liking classes. Maybe while we're getting a drink you can tell me what you would like to study in DADA?"
"I don't mind at all. You deserve more chocolate for being such a nice teacher," Reese said. She reached inside her back and pulled out 5 chocolate frogs, well, that WAS half of them. She said she was only giving half, because she needed at least 5 chocolate frogs to get her through at least to tomorrow where she can go to Hogsmeade. "Here you go," she reached her hand out, so Lawson could take the chocolate. "It's fine. You don't need to replace any chocolate. I'll just take a trip to Hogsmeade tomorrow, maybe with a friend, and get some more. So, no need to worry about paying me back." Maybe Anna would go to Honeydukes with her or maybe Jack would go. She'll go find one of them later and ask if they would go with her.
She took out one of her five chocolate frogs she had left and opened the box up. She took the chocolate frog out and began to eat it as she listened to Lawson talk. Constantly gives him attitude? Yep. Sounded like something Jake would do. She nearly choked on her chocolate when Professor Lawson said he hung Jake from the ceiling. She held her index finger up, telling the Professor to hold on, as she swallowed her chocolate. "Okay, you hung him from the ceiling..." she repeated as soon as she swallowed her chocolate. She tried to picture Jake hanging from the ceiling and she just smiled. "I don't blame you. If Jake annoyed me, I would and him from the ceiling, too."
"But, back to helping Jake for weeks. What have you been helping him with? Like, homework or..." She asked. She was oh so curious about this. Thinking about helping Jake, she thought about the letter dad had sent her a while ago. But, Lawson was going to go see Professor Morgan, so maybe she would tell him about the letter. She wasn't going to tell him. Nope.
Seeing Lawson laugh, made her laugh. Wait...what did she say that made him laugh? He then said she was just saying that. "Well, sort of. I mean, it's good, but it would be much better if it was cooked," she confessed. She stepped back a little bit when Lawson stood beside her. Man, was he tall! "A drink? Where at? Aren't the kitchens flooded?" She asked. Talk about school while they were getting a drink? "Hm. Actually, why don't we talk about
you while we're having our drinks? Like, what are you favorite hobbies?" She said, grinning slightly. Oh, yes. She was going to try and get out of talking about school while they having their drinks.
