"thanks!" He exclaimed excitedly and hugged her ..YES..hugged her! and grabbed the notes to place it in his text book.
The hand touching his cheek in a mocking way didn't help his blushing , especially when she said the word Mercury and he blinked a couple of times before rolling his eyes.
"I know!" he puffed his cheeks as he started to look back through the telescope.
He tried out what the Professor had said and soon he too found the planet.
"There looks to be alot of craters , Sir!" Daichi said as he continued to peer through the telescope and one arm in to the air.
"It looks like the moon we know.." He lowered his arm as he looked back in to the classroom, rubbing one of his eyes.
At the next question, Daichi frowned as the tried to recall what he had read when he couldn't sleep. He liked reading school books..which some would find weird. But ever since Evan told him last year that the sorting was three hours long and that he needed to study for it...he had read the books. Not that he could remember everything but some parts remained in his memory. Slowly, he raised his hand in the air.
"Mercury, or as they say in Latin Mercurius was a messenger and a god in Roman Mythology. He was the son of Jupiter..i think...and ...sorry i don't remember the woman's name" Daichi thought for a moment before speaking again.
"He was also the god of merchants if i'm not wrong and..oh! he also had a symbol ..wait.." the Slytherin grabbed the note that Thea had written for him and grabbed his quill to scribble on it.
"It was something ..like....this" He showed the Professor his parchment and grinned broadly , his eyes twinkling.
Thea jumped as Daichi suddenly hugged her. Wrapping her arms around him awkwardly she patted him on the back.
'It's fine. No bother.. really.' She smiled sheepishly. Rolling her eyes she placed her own notes in her text book.
Laughing as he blushed again, Thea turned back to her own telescope. She could only see cratery looking things..
'Yeah, I see craters too sir.' She smiled as she raised her hand. Mythology? Aha.
'Mercury was a messanger, and a god of trade. He was the son of Maia Maiestas and Jupiter in Roman mythology.' Lowering her hand, she smiled and wrote some more notes on her parchment.
