She debated with herself over whether or not to go introduce herself to the girl. The nervous girl looked old... but she was probably nice enough, right?
Arlie figured she would take her chances.
Leaving the book of poetry on her chair so no one would take her seat, the eleven-year-old stood up and walked lightly over to the nervous girl. She tapped the girl on the shoulder and cleared her throat. "Excuse me," she said politely. "Are you okay? You look real worried, and probably not 'cause of classes because they 'aven't started yet even." It was these rare moments that Cedes wished she was a Slytherin, which was really a ridiculous idea but at least she'd be with Lucky. That girl was probably her best and one of her only friends. Sure she needed to make more friends, but what did it matter when it was compared to the risk of cooties? But Cedes had vowed to her father that she wouldn't be so impossible and would just deal with it like a man. But then she told him that she wasn't a man and men had cooties. Well at least, men that were under the age of eighteen. But after reading this article in the Cootie Digest, Cedes wasn't so sure anymore. Maybe the male professors had a chance in getting it too!
In the midst of all this thinking, Cedes had stood planted in the same place she had been upon entering. Should she stay here in the Common Room and possibly get exposed to cooties? Or go into the safe haven of the Girl's Dormitory. Even though Cedes wanted to make an effort to make more friends this term, and MAYBE with some of the opposite gender, but it was clear what her choice was going to be. Just as she was about to head for the stairs. She felt a tap on her shoulder and Cedes froze.
BOY? No. Waittt... the voice sounded like a girl's.
Cedes turned around to look at a small girl with brown hair and a curious expression on her face. Or maybe it was puzzled. Who knows? She was no mind reader. "Oh. Hellooooo... I'm mighty fine, thank you for asking. It's nothing really. I think the coast is clear," she said, nodding her head as she glanced around. No men. Whew. Back to the girl. Well wasn't she just a sweeeeeeeeetheart?! |
