Although, that look disappeared once she noticed the quill down on the table, and her eyes narrowed as he pushed her hand away. "Heeeeey." What was that for? She was cleaning! "If I destroy my wand, I'll just get another."
Fine, though. Fine. If he thought he could do a better job.. Rhodes glared at the Gryffindor, and even peered over his shoulder to make sure he was doing a good job before sitting back down on her stool once he was finished.
She didn't think it was fair that she had to use a spell to put the water into the cauldron, since she was cleaning the thing out first, but not wanting to let Michael know that she was nervous, she placed her wand back into the cauldron. "If I do this, you have to light the fire on the burner." Because that was fair. And she was hoping he'd accidentally blow himself something up. Rhodes took a deep breath and turned away from Michael before saying the incantation. "Aguamenti."
And what do you know!? It WORKED! On the first try! And since she was too busy congratulating herself on a job well done, she didn't notice that the spray of water was not only landing inside up her cauldron, but it was landing on Michael as well.
Rhodes Merivel was one spoiled brat!!
The Toussaints had oodles of money. Michael had never in his life gone without anything but he didn't take anything for granted either. He would in no way destroy something on purpose and then just shrug it off because he knew that he could get another one. "How about you just look after the one you already have." And he pulled a face at her while she glared at him.
They were never going to get this homework finished.
"Fine by me." Only it wasn't, because he had never really tried the fire charm before. And he could cause a lot more damage than doing the water charm. As Rhodes prepared herself to do the charm, Michael moved a little closer so that he could watch what she did. Not that he would admit that's what he was doing.
And of course it backfired on him. The Slytherin did manage to do the water charm. Only most of the water landed on HIM instead of inside the cauldron. "Nice work Merivel." He glared at her. "NOT!" He gave his hair a shake and hoped that he sprayed her with water before he moved around to the other side of the bench and pointed his wand underneath the cauldron.
He also took a deep breath before speaking the incantation. "Incendio." He said, although his voice wavered a little from nerves and only a couple sparks emitted from his wand. He cleared his throat and refused to look at Rhodes as he tried a second time.
"INCENDIO." This time he said it with a lot more force and a stream of flames shot out from his wand, straight across the table and straight towards the Slytherin first year.
