And it was time for him to come clean to her even though she didn't really seem upset about the joke. "Look, I'm sorry for playing a joke on you. I just wanted to ask you to help me in a way that seemed I was after a date as the Charms homework." She would be cool with this and all that. They were friends.
"Alright, I can help you with that" Peyton smiled warmly, hoping he'd watch carefully, but still ask for more help.
Joke? Her face fell into a blank expression. So.. he wasn't asking her out? What? She swayed on the spot and then reached out for the wall to steady herself. "It's fine.." she smiled forcedly and tried not to look too disappointed. He'd made her believe it. And... now.. She couldn't understand. Boys were idiots. Complete. Idiots.
