CRAP.

Biting down hard on his lip, Jake stood still for a moment, moving slowly towards the group. Stupid tree. Stupid STUPID scary tree. It was freaking him out. Yep. And he didn't want to be near those Slytherins who mocked his sanity and his stutter. After many a shuffle closer, Jake found himself in the spot that Truebridge had pointed to. He was upset, but not crying, not even close. The boy trembled in fear, looking desperately around for some escape route.

He opened his mouth to answer, but kept his eyes on the tree... the huge... deadly tree. No matter what anyone said, that thing was dangerous. That thing would surely kill him.

When his mouth opened... Jake knew the answer, he really did. But what came out of his mouth wasn't the answer, but some kind of strangled, pathetic whimper, and Jake slammed his mouth shut again, shaking his head.
