"I am nice to the rocks, it's not like I'm chucking them." Cuz that would be mean. She smiled, and shook her head. "Have I ever told you that you are kind of a nerd?" She asked, because he was. A cool one. A cool, cocky, nerd.
Right, serious time. Maybelle took a deep breath and looked him straight in the eyes. "Yeah, might as well." She said, "Otherwise, it will only linger in the air. Forever." She let the words linger for a bit before moving on. "So, you know that I like you, but there is some complications..." She didn't say his name, but hopefully Everett knew who she was talking about. "And there is the fact that I have no clue how you feel..." She said. "This is crazy, right? I mean, it's my final year, and you're only a Sixth year, and you're a Slytherin, and I'm a Hufflepuff." Maybelle was just making everything harder. "It couldn't work, could it?" She asked, her big brown eyes started filling with tears....tears of confusion. Her eyes widened as Maybelle looked at Everett, waiting for his response.
"Well as long as I still have some of the title I suppose it's alright," Everett said, poking his tongue out back at her.
"Well clearly the rocks aren't seeing you being nice enough. Maybe it was because you insulted me by thinking you could be better at the guitar than me?" He said laughing.
"No you haven't. I'm fine not being a nerd though. So don't call methat." Everett replied. He didn't want to be known as a nerd. The nerds never were that cool. If anyone was a nerd it was Everett's littlest brother who even though was only 1 year old seemed to enjoy watching Star Wars. A lot.
Everett stared back at her as she spoke, thinking carefully about what he was going to say. The last time he didn't think before he spoke his guitar was killed so this time he was going to do it right. Especially because her eyes were tearing up which wasn't ever a good sign. He had to tread carefully.
"I don't think it's crazy necessarily. I mean, it's just a one year gap and house rivalries aren't that big a deal..." He said slowly, before moving on to the more difficult part. His feelings.
"And, I don't really know how I feel about you. I like you, but I don't know if it's as a friend or more..." Everett said, biting his lip slightly as he tried to think.
