We should get them together soon." Which reminded her, she poked the boy's leg playfully, "You had to leave him at your grandfather!" Heh. She was going to get back at him in this matter as long as it came up. Hehehe.
Adam's face expressions didn't go unnoticed by her but she let it pass. Basically because she didn't want to talk about it to Adam who probably would be hurt or embarrassed.. even more than he was now. Clearing her throat and dropping her gaze down a bit, she nodded, "We tried to explain ourselves but they seemed to be seeing Paulie giving me a 'look'." Doing the air quotation marks with her fingers. With a scoff, she went on, "It was probably that stupid smirk he was born with."
Tell them to shove off? "Well I don't think anybody will come up and tell me so. It's just the fact that people now know or doubt that we were really brewing romance in the library. It's totally going to be a huge reputation obstacle for me." Not to mention her boyfriend. Heh. It was going to be one heck of an explanation to Joao. He already doubts her.
... why was Adam so awkwardly silent so suddenly? Louisa was afraid that he was still embarrassed from her slip-up. She looked with concern at him, "Adam? What is it?" Even if it was the hint at them being together, she'd talk about it to clear everything for him.
When Louisa poked his leg playfully Adam couldn't help but chuckle.
"He's quite content with my grandpa...in fact he hardly even noticed that I was leaving his house to go to the Hogwarts Express. He was too busy chasing after this squirrel in our yard," Adam said with a small shake of the head. Oh JB. The dog still had as much energy as he did on the day Louisa and him got the little guy. Although he certainly was not that little anymore...the dog easily came up to Adam's waist if not higher.
A part of Adam was quite thankful that Louisa decided not to comment on his embarrassed face. Perhaps she was just as embarrassed about the situation as he was. Paulie and him were definitely going to be chatting and depending on what exactly it was that Paulie said would determine whether or not he pushed the matter later on with Louisa. Adam was just really hoping that it wasn't something that meant Adam should be shoving his head into the ground in shame. At the mention of Paulie's look Adam gave a little chuckle.
"He is pretty notorious for that look of his...but it's just so Paulie you know?" Adam said with a laugh. Of course Adam was familiar with the look considering Paulie had given it to him on more than one occasion when he was plotting something or telling Adam something that Adam probably wouldn't openly admit out loud to anyone.
Adam understood what she meant.
"Well, once people see the two of you interacting for themselves they should see that it's a big misunderstanding," Adam said with a small nod. At least Adam was assuming that it was a definite misunderstanding, and Louisa's reaction definitely made it seem that way. He hadn't meant for his silence to be so obvious, but really he shouldn't have been that surprised. Louisa had an uncanny knack for picking up on his emotions and addressing them. Figuring that there was no point in trying to deny anything, Adam shifted uncomfortably, plucking out a couple blades of grass.
"Rubiey broke up with me," Adam said with a gentle shrug, clearing his throat since the sentence had come out so husky.
