Evan heard that E, and froze for a moment of thinking. E... and she blushed... and that meant--
No wai! She too couldn't, of course she didn't like him. Uh uh. He was just being arrogant again that made him think he was very handsome. He was, but not everyone would think so. Nope.
"Pleeeaase, Lyddia!" he said one more time and put his hand on her shoulder to show that she could really trust him. Why would he tell to anyone anyway? "Why aren't you telling me?" he asked. If he could learn the reason, maybe he would convince her by showing he would be loyal to her secret.
Just as Evan was ready to plead some more, a first year Slytherin greeted and broke everything. Absolutely everything. Just as he had got Lyddia to pronounce the first letter, this silly thing greeted them. Did she not see they were talkig something PRIVATE? He quickly dropped his hand, and turned his blue eyes to her, trying his best not to growl at the girl, ah, Nicoletta. He waved his hand curtly at the mention of his name, and turned his full attention back to Lyddia. Maybe this Nicoletta would understand they were talking privately. If it was some other time, Evan would be all nicey, but right now, he was dealing with something important.
That was a really awkward moment Lyddia had just gotten out of back there. She was a little glad that the girl had interrupted. It meant she hadn't let out the...well, it was sort of a secret wasn't it?
She remembered the feeling she got when Evan had put his hand on her and was glad it was over. She had to stop liking him. It was setting her up for disaster. She also had to think of something else to tell him next time he asked. But being around him wasn't helping her think. She needed some time alone. Maybe writing in her diary would help. But she couldn't do that just now.
They had come back from Hogsmeade and Lyddia had to figure out a way to get rid of Evan so she could come up with some sort of guy that she liked. She had to get away before he asked her again, otherwise she might let slip...
But she couldn't think about that.
She turned to Evan,
'So, uhm, that was fun, I'm gonna...go...to my dorm...now...
She hoped he wouldn't say anything else. She would have left at that second but she didn't want to be rude to him. After all, he did have gorgeous eyes...
