She pouted but let it pass. She swallowed the sweet ice cream with a flavor she couldn't really distinguish. "Thanks," she just blurted out while giving Bee a sharp look. One of their many childish wars.
"It's not that I don't like Dylan for you but it's just that I like Spike more," she answered almost stopping but then continued for Bee to not make any issues,"...for you...But that was BEFORE." Where she emphasized the last word. "You know about the rough past. But I can see that you're happy with him." Avoiding Beezus question about herself, Erin added, "So, is he good in snogging?" Erin beamed widely. She was aware that it was such an awkward question but they were betfriends. No secrets.
And another spoonful of vanilla-looking-mocha-dash-honey-flavored ice cream, Heyman. Say aaaaaahhh. Yep...very good girl.
...What? They feed each other like that. It was just the way it was with her and Erin. They were pretty much straightforward with each other. No matter how rude or hurting it may sound, they tended to be honest. Guess that what kept their friendship solid and firm despite the many circumstances along the way.
Back to their convo. Right now, Beezus felt like she had to exert extra effort just to squeeze out the truth from Erin. It was obvious that she was avoiding the Prefect's questions. Waving a hand at her friend, Beezus said,
"Yeah, yeah.....you told me that too...before." Apparently, people liked Spike for her....more Ravenclaws at that. But she just couldn't see him as more than a brother figure. And even though it was difficult.........rejecting his feelings....she did it.
She had Dylan. She was happy with him and couldn't ask for anyone else.
Snogging? Gah, Beezus grimaced a bit.
"Merlin...Erin.......can't you at least pretend to be awkward with me? You're treading on private grounds.....but yes, he is......a good kisser." She turned to her ice cream, blushing.
"Enough about me and Dylan.....spill it now.. I know you have something bothering you." She'd make sure Erin would tell her about it....by hook or by crook.
