Class hadn't started yet, so she took her bag, parchment, and quills, and walked over to Henric. She purposely sat right beside him , and since he was the farthest in the corner he didn't have a choice about it. She set her stuff up and made her desk neat, then looked over at him.
"What is wrong?" There was a soft , concerned frown on her face as her bright blue eyes searched him over for the source of distress.
Henric didn't say anything as he watched his bestfriend slide in beside him.She must had not heard about the rumours yet,thankfully, but still she shouldn't sit by him. People might start wagging their tongues about them and it wouldn't be good.He knew he shouldn't cared about it...honestly, he really tried but it was getting harder to think that someone else might be hurt in the process.
Henric sighed,
"Nothing...its just potions class..."he replied, giving her an excuse to hide his own predicament. She was concerned for him, and he felt bad again for not telling her the matter. Henric glanced down at his potions book and started fiddling with the pages.He always had the need to do something with his hands if he had something to hide.
