Because the smart thing would have been to call a professor, but sometimes Elliot did things for other reasons that weren't quite clear to anyone else.
Ha! Take that Beatrice Castell! Elliot hadn't asked Beezus to sleep next to her. Just Presley, who had been a better friend for a longer amount of time. Presley pulled a sleeping bag over a little closer to Elliot. "I've been studying." she rolled her eyes. "This O.W.L. year is killing me." Really. She'd only managed nonverbal spells a couple of times yet, and it made her angry that she wasn't consistent with them yet. Especially since Gwen seemed to have no trouble pulling them off.
"We do have a lot to talk about." Presley nodded seriously. Because Elliot hadn't been around lately. She always had things to do with Maxwell, or Beezus or whatever. But now that they had a few hours with nothing to do, Elliot was right. There was lots of information to share.
Elliot shook her head..
"No..I went inside to see what happpened and then ALL sorts of people started coming in...and then we all ended up sending someone to go get a professor and then looked for clues..as to what the heck could have happened...we found nothing. There was no trace of any sort of puncture wound..it almost looked...like...the killing curse. But...I didn't hear anyone say the spell from inside the barn..." she explained...looking a bit curious about all of this. It was weird. Very weird. And she wanted to hear Presley's opinion on it..
."What do you think about that, hmm?"
Oooh...right...
"You're a fifth year..right...OWL year..." she snickered, a bit tauntingly at her..
"I forget sometimes..that you're a year ahead..." she rolled her eyes. Right. Ahem.
She lowered her voice and got a little closer to Presley...
"I have a lot to tell you about Maxwell and me..." she said, but that was all she was saying NOW about that...hehe...She leaned back again and glanced at Beezus...

A private talk with her? Beezus couldn't help but make a face. Her recent 'private' conversations with this girl were full of.....meh. "Yeah..okay, okay. We'll talk soon."
AND..what was Presley's problem? What was with that 'look'? She eyed the girl for a moment before raising a questioning eyebrow at her. Did she owe her something? Nope. None that she was aware of.
SHRUG.
heh.
Right, Beezus.
Like Elliot believed THAT.
"Sure, sure, Castell.." and she waved the girl off, rolling her eyes...Beezus loved Elliot, and she would totally admit it...one day...hehe. Elliot adored Beezus, but that was a different story...a whole OTHER story...that Elliot would NEVER tell Beezus..
Noooope!

Okay...Moving on.
He pressed his lips, wondering if she'd believe him if he told her why he couldn't attend. It's not that it's a long story, just a complicated one. But Elliot asked, so why not! "You see, um, around the time my parents divorced...I was 11 and I kinda had a bad fit about that. I knew they had problems but I had hoped that they would resolve them." And I never got my acceptance letter that year, he thought to himself. This was his first time telling anyone that, since he got here. And he decided that was as much as he wanted to reveal for one night. Nothing against her or anything.
'It is nice to meet me'? She's funny.
Elliot just stared at him, interested...because, well, his story was interesting! She had never...heard about divorced parents first hand before. So of course, her blue eyes were completely focused on him...
Oh..
"
Your parents are divorced?" she asked, tilting her head to the side.."
No one I know has divorced parents." All of them either had two unhappy parents or just one parents...she straightened up a bit and stared at him some more. "
What is that like? Is it weird? Do they still talk? Or do they hate each other?!" she fired questions at him, unable to keep her mouth shut...
Yeah, that thing called a filter...Elliot didn't have one. And her being insensitive...was...well, not helping the matter. She didn't even think that her questions might affect Mick..she was not raised to be like that...'
I mean, my parents might be better off divorced, but the scandal of it..." she rolled her eyes and shook her head a bit...
"They wouldn't even do that."
