Hopefully he was quick to see that the shelves was on an alphabetical order. Still...one needed to know what book they were looking for if they wanted to make use of that alphabetical basis. Maybe the book he needed was not starting with the 'U' of the Unicorn. It was not a must for books about Unicorns to have a title that started with the word 'Unicorn' itself anyway. But since that idea made his search way more complicated for himself, the Gryffindor decided to just drop it and pick a 'Unicorn' book from the 'U' section.
Maybe he'd ask Donovan's help for the perfect one later, but it was not now for he already had spend too much time among bookshelves for his own habit-of-body. So he was just going to pick the first book about the horned-horse...
...yet definitely NOT that one with PINK cover.
Narrowing his eyes at the pink cover, Josh immediately walked away from him happily coming across one with decent book cover colours. It was dark brown with a white unicorn's head pic on it and no titles as he could he. Huh. Weird. But it looked like a good book anyway. Putting it safely under his arm, the lion boy made his way to the Reading Loudge where he had never visited before. The seats looked comfortable though and...
Aha!! Evelyn was there....reading stuff. Nice. Maybe she could tell him if this book was good enough.
''Hey...'' he said cheerfully approaching the Slytherin girl and waving the book at her yet he stopped and his smile vanished when his dark brown eyes spotted the shining THING on her that said:
HG
NO. That was fake, right? But why would Evelyn wear a stupid fake badge? She would not do such a thing. Then it must be him imagining things. But he would never imagine THAT. Then...
Life must have been kidding him.
*stare-blink*
Turning the page of the book, she leaned back against her seat, one finger tapping quietly in random beats on the side of the book while she lightly chewed on her lip. Reading something about Kelpies, she raised a brow at the mention of placement charms. Hmm, she'd have to look that up a little later.
Taking a deep breath, she was just about to turn the page again when the voice reached her ears. Hmmm?
Looking up, her eyes widened a little when she saw Josh standing there, but that wasn't what bugged her. No. It was that his smile suddenly vanished. Was he surprised to see it was her or something? Did he think she was meeting another boy here? Even though the last time she just ran into Riley and wasn't planning on meeting him...
"Hey." she replied back, nonchalantly lifting the book she was reading up so it leaned against her, almost completely covering the badge. The badge hadn't even crossed her mind. She was more worried that Josh thought she was meeting someone else here.
"How...are you? I saw you at the tryouts. You looked pretty good as a seeker."
Smile...?
