"Yes, really." she said noticing the change in his voice. "Improve on this? Why what do you mean?" she asked with that innocent little look of hers again.
"Oh, Gryffindor is good." she said raising her eyebrows at him. She did have a thing for Gryffindor boys, well one Gryffindor boy... No wait, she did NOT have s thing for a certain Gryffindor boy anymore. She was moving on now. "So should I call you a Ravendor, or a Gryffinclaw?" she asked teasingly. Really, he wanted to see the Room of Requirement with her. "The Room of Requirement is awesome. It transforms into whatever you need it to. It is designed to fit your needs." What exactly were her needs for this room? To be a quiet place where there would be no interruptions fro anyone.
Well that was an improvement. The smiling. Jimmy was a sucker for a pretty smile. It was about the third best thing a girl could do, he reckoned.
"Well, I figure if just seeing me made you smile, then if I made a little effort to show you a good time, maybe a few good surprises in a row, maybe the year won't be a total loss."
He took a few steps and then paused, waiting for Marie to join him. "Can't figure out why the hat got it wrong. It argued with me and everything." He nodded at her explanation of the Room of Requirement. He'd read enough to know, and of course Neptune had plotted romantic escapes there...
before. Not that he'd gone along with it. Pshhh. Give Neptune Bott an inch and she'd take a mile. Not that she mattered right now. Not with another pretty blonde smiling at him and keeping him well distracted.
He grinned, dimpling at Marie. "Oh and, call me James S. Wilkes. There's only one of me."
