Was that enough small talk? Usually, Alice was an extremely direct person, but she was trying to be tactful right now. Trying.
Apparently, her attempt was in vain. "I... I saw you... looking at me." The Gryffindor's tone softened a little, but the her gaze stayed locked on the food. "Why? I don't... I don't know you? And I'm not really sure what I did to make you... dislike me so much."
Heh, so...
this was about
that. Well, then...
Vesper sighed, thinking she should probably go ahead and look at Alice...Get this over with. Her head and body were still buzzing from her time on the stage. So, the Ravenclaw wasn't exercising the caution she probably should have. Biting into another piece of pizza...Ves shrugged.
"It's probably best not to ask me that here. You won't like what I say." Honesty seemed like the best route at this point...because no, Alice wouldn't like what she had to say one bit. Vesper knew that much.
