"Yeah." he said agreeing with her. It would be nice to have another quiet-ish year. "You get used to the excitement though..." he said trying to downplay it. "And... I guess... it's good preparation... you know... if you want to be an auror or something..."
...
Did she just say date?
"Is err... 'getting cheesecake' supposed to mean date...?" he asked. Because if so he probably needed to find Ella sometime...
But wait, they always got cheesecake together even when they both had significant others.
But he did always pay. Actually, he normally paid whenever he was out with friends. But that was because he was taught not to let girls pay.
Merlin's crazy long beard! Had he been unknowingly dating all of his friends?
"It could be I guess..." he said slowly. He wasn't technically with Marie at the moment.
"Wait! I didn't mean it like that." he said realizing how that came across. "You're really cute. And it would be lots of fun to... you know... 'get cheesecake' in a date kinda way..."
He stopped talking and ran a hand through his hair. Yeah... he should have taken some of those life lessons with the French guy...
He then chuckled nervously. "I mean... do you want it to be a date?"
Mia snorted. It was apparent that he didn't know her very well. She was bound to get lost before the term was out. She like to wander but really had no sense of direction.
Good preparation to be an auror? Mia didn't want to be an auror. She had no idea what she wanted to do when she left school but being an auror was definitely was not something she would ever consider. "I will have to remember that."
Oh Merlin!
She should have just kept her mouth shut. Carter was right. Since when did going to have some cheesecake constitute as a date?
Mia opened her mouth to say something but Carter continued to go on and okay she did kind of grin when he called her cute. She was only human after all and it makes you feel good when someone pays you a compliment.
She shook herself out of these thoughts. And as cute as he was, Carter had just broken up with his girlfriend and apparently there were still some unresolved issues with them. And she didn't want to be getting into the middle of all that.
Holding up her hands, Mia shook her head. "NO!!!" She cleared her throat and gave him a sheepish look. "I mean. You're a nice guy Carter and I think you're cute too but I don't want it to be a date. I don't date."
No she just snogged guys every now and then but never got involved in anything serious.
"But we can go as friends. I would like that. If that's alright with you I mean?" Could that be anymore awkward?
