Ah well it did make sense to kiss.....WHAT? NO IT DIDN'T!
Daichi looked at the girl who had read the sign out loud with a confused expression. Was she for real or was she playing a prank? "B-but i don't wanna kiss a statue~!" he muttered as his cheeks fired up slightly and he fumbled with his fingers. He didn't want to kiss anyone let alone a statue. A statue! This wasn't a joke right? What if he kissed the statue and everyone would laugh at him?

The Slytherin looked around for someone with a hidden camera. Maybe they were being photographed right at this moment?! O_o.

His eyes gazed back at the statue and he figured that he would find out if he just did it. He was about to walk towards it when the other boy hold him back. Daichi bit his lower lip as he listened to what he had to say and he nodded his head. "You're right, i'll just listen first what the Professor has to say" he looked over at the Professor who was talking to a, what seemed to be a hufflepuff looking at her badge. "I'm Daichi by the way" he said out of the blue while looking back at the sign. Maybe he could just walk away? But he had heard from a classmate that another sign had been posted somewhere in Hogwarts and it had said that everyone who ignored it would be punished. What if it were the same thing with this sign? Daichi didn't like the whole punishing idea. So he waited for an explanation and it was then when he heard a girl's voice call out the Professors name from the other side.

Turning around, he saw a girl walking towards them. She looked really familiar to Daichi. Hadn't he tasted one of her cookies at the beginning of last year? Or maybe she looked familiar because she was wearing a Prefect badge and therefore had to stand out.

Maybe it was because he had been lost in his thoughts earlier that he couldn't progress that the sign had read #47 according to the girl who had read it for him but when he heard the Prefect talking about not even knowing the first degree he too looked panicked. "I-i don't know the other degrees either" Well , he did ..but only two of them. And one he didn't even know what it was. This was confusing him.
