But Jayce wasn't that bad looking yet...nothing. Maybe it was cus they'd just met. Nah. That'd never stopped her before.
Maybe it was cus she was scared.
That sounded like a reasonable explination and she couldn't be bothered to think of another explination anyways. She watched the statue, nodding slowly to Jayce as she suggested them moving further away. They couldn't move to a different floor completely because she'd know. Callie could tell she was clevah. She began to breath deeply inwardly and outly, eeeeh. She was likee SUPER scared. meh meh meh.
Then she heard a noise.
It was only like a creak or something but she was sure it was the witch moving or maybe she had some evil minions or something that she was sending in to corner them so she could turn 'em ugly. Her eyes widend as these weird thoughts ran through her head. She was so not feeling normal today. Maybe she was coming down with something. She let out a quiet shreik before letting go of Jayce's hand and wrapping her arms around him not even thinking about them being practically strangers.
She clung onto him listening closly for more scareh sounds. "Um..Fourth..." she answered listening some more..."you ?"
Jayce smiled at Callie, trying his best to forget that there was a hugry, evil statue on the other side of the hallway. He kept an eye on the statue though because if he didn't know knew what could happen to the two of them. It could eat them and they'd never see it coming. I'm watching you witch. He turned towards it a bit more, and narrowed his eyes.
Still glaring at the statue, he took a step to the side, pulling Callie a bit. He was feeling protective today. So, he stood in front of her, trying to hide her from the witch. It wil NOT touch her. Nope nope. Good luck witchy. He stuck out his tongue at the statue. If anyone walked by right now they'd probably be very confused.
MHEEEP. Was she hyperventiliating? She seemed to be breathing rather heavily. It was strange.. "Errrr. Are you alright there?" he asked, his voice full of concern.
CREEEEAAAAAK.
Jayce was so tempted to pick up Callie and run down the hallway towards safety. Maybe they could go to the room of requirement and hide in there. Surely the statue couldn't get in there. Then Cal had let go of his hand and he grew even more scared but then she was wrapping her arms around him and he felt somewhat better. He wrapped his arms around her too, keeping his ears and eyes sharp, listening and looking for any signs of movement from the statue.
Still embracing her, he nodded slowly, eyes still glued to the statue. "I'm in fifth." Errr.. another question.. "Errrm..." maybe they should just be quiet and listen for any other clues that the witch was moving.
