Well...there were always something on his face that should not have been there. ''It's nothing.'' so he said ''Not a big deal. Let's just move on.'' Yea, he did not like talking about his bruises, scars, wounds...etc.
Then, smiling at her, he gently took her arm and tugged her towards the other side of the empty classroom...away from the wands. So, if she ever felt like snatching a wand from there, all in a sudden, she needed to run to the other side of the classroom right now and that Josh knew he could handle.
He kept the smile on his face as she spoke, explaining her reasons and intentions for requesting to learn this. Hmmm. It did not surprise the Gryffindor yet all sounded reasonable. ''Well...then. Stress relieving and wandless defense.'' he summarised. ''Did i get it right?'' eh...he supposed he had gotten it right. ''To be honest i think every witch and wizard should be learning wandless defense. Seriously, one just shouldn't make his life depend on a magical stick. What if...one days it slips away from your hand?'' Or lost? Stolen? Broken? It was a stick after all. ''Anything can happen to it. But everyone always have their body with themselves. Always.''
Now, it was time to start. *ahem*
''All right. Show me what you can do and i want the best. I guarantee you that i won't react. Won't move even a single muscle. This is only to see what you can do, so we will know where and what to start with''
Cassie shrugged as Josh dismissed the cut on his face. She didn't want to pry really and besides, most guys were like that. They had this tough guy, nothing hurts persona thing going, which most girls usually just went along with, so that's what she was going to do.
She allowed him to lead her to the other side of the classroom, away from her wand she noticed..hmmm.. yeah she didn't like being that far away from her wand. SHe looked over her shoulder at her lonely looking wand as he led away. Great, what had she gotten herself into now? At least he was gently, she didn't have anything to be scared of..it was only Josh.
Cassie nodded as Josh basically summed up why she wanted to do this. He hit the nail right on the head. Of course there was also the wanting a distraction from her thoughts thing, but she could leave that alone. He didn't need that much detail."Yep that's it in a nutshell." She concurred.
She listened as Josh spoke about the benefits of wandless defense. It all seemed pretty logical to her and most certainly it was practical. She didn't get why people thought him to be crazy, he seemed like a pretty smart guy to her....just a little bolder than the average student...bolder than the average Gryffindor even."
Right, my body is always with me." How right he was, she seemed to be doing the lonely thing these days anyways.
What? Cassie blinked at him for a few seconds. Did he want her to hit him or something? Well she would, he asked for it anyways but he better know that she would not be taking responsibility for any damage she may inflict on him. ahem...yeah right.
She made a fist and threw a punch at his arm. O.O Was it suppose to hurt her? She whimpered softly and rubbed her fist as her eyes watered."
Is it suppose to hurt? |Did I hurt you?"
