"Hang on a minute, why would you be polyjuiced as your best friend and then choose to have a conversation with me? -- You said that you and Iso --" Ugh too confusing! "You seemed to indicate that you and Maybelle talk about everything. Including -- 'people you like' --"
Oh now his head was starting to hurt.
Isobel studied his face, trying to judge his expression. She couldn't tell if he was indifferent, disappointed, mad, or...what? She really wanted to know how he felt, but she could not figure it out.
"It was an assignment; we had to go around like we normally would, but looking like them to see what it was like to be in someone else's shoes. I forgot that I didn't look like myself when I saw you." She nodded slowly, not sure where he was going with that.
"Yeah, best friends talk about everything."
