At the exact moment that Louisa mentioned them getting food Adam felt his stomach grumble again. Food was definitely something that he was in need of. Seeing that Louisa was starting to stand he quickly rose up, and put his hand out for her to not move. "No, no. You stay here and save our seats. I'll just go up to the counter and get two hamburgers and two butter beers."
Adam pushed his chair in to make sure that no one bumped into it while he was gone, before heading up to the counter. Peering into the open space where he assumed someone would be there to order, Adam cleared his throat; not loudly, but hopefully loud enough that if someone was in there they would know. "Um...hello?" Adam whispered.
As Adam went to bring their food, which was very polite and nice of him. Again. Louisa couldn't help but stare at him at he went away. She was thoughtful and something was going inside her head. Why didn't she see him as she had seen Dal? He was very good looking, even more than Dal was with his rather built up figure, and he gave attention to the people around him. Why did she have to like Dal more than Adam and not keep him in the best friend category as last year? Because Adam was definitely a less problematic than Dal who had a beautiful and nice girlfriend who obviously was so in love with.
With an exasperated sigh, she moved her gaze away from her new friend and focused on her hands lying on the table before her. Her thoughts were so silly of course because she hadn't even known when Dal had become more than a friend to her. Maybe at the Whomping Willow? At the common room when they stayed up all night? Or at the feast when she saw his hand on Ellie's? Personally, she thought it was there all along but hidden under this best-friend-cloak. However, she had to get rid of it. It was wrong, painful and time consuming. If she wanted him to treat her right again, she'd have to at least pretend that she got rid of this itchy feeling. Oh and thanks Adam when he came back for being so nice to her and standing up for her before Jonathan.
