Where had that change of mind come from? He couldn't understand how she had gone from being so intent on getting him into trouble for an innocent bodily function to accepting a desperate apology and making sure he got cleaned up. And even locking the door and smiling. Was...she about to kill him? Was he going to be the next Myrtle?! He hadn't been paid enough in his life for this~! Rooney was a mere boy, a mere teenager! He hadn't even had his first kiss, yet. He hadn't even gone to the theatre with Miss Charlotte! How was this even going to happen to him... Roo resisted the urge to let the girl know that her change in exterior was a little creepy and sinister and tried to get himself into a position where he could, as she insisted, clean himself up.
Before he was seen.

Too late. Doomed. He was completely doomed and this was the second time he had came into contact with Myrtle right when he was doing something he shouldn't be. It was like she was on watch for students to step out of line and cause havoc. Man, she was worse than Peeves sometimes. Doomed Roon. Doomed! "No, no! Miss Myrtle!!" PLEASE. His arm extended and he almost grabbed for her and the girl, forgetting that one was a ghost and the other was not up for being grabbed by a boy lying in toilet water and his own wee. "I wouldn't throw things at you!" Not that she would ever believe him, because he was a boy. A boy in the girls bathroom. Suspicious was written all over that situation.
And then as if the entire world was trying to get on his last nerve and deal him the worst hand of luck for just needing the toilet. Next time he'd make sure to do his private reading in the actual boys bathroom. In a cubicle. Where he wouldn't have to worry if he ever needed to go. No problems of being far away from the bathroom and having to run the whole way to avoid wetting himself. (A situation he had tried to avoid by coming here, but it hadn't actually worked)
A prefect. SO. NOT. IDEAL.
Rooney avoided letting himself cry about everything that was going on and mumbled a 'thanks' as Penelope cleared him off and everything. He was still a little wary of her after the train incident, but was grateful that he wasn't sitting in a mess now and could stand up - something that he did as soon as he could. "Ijustneededthetoilet...." It hadn't been anything more than that. "I only like using one and that's way up on the seventh floor, but I was desperate and only in the corridor and I checked if anyone was in here and SHE," he pointed at Katherine, "was! So I tried to get her to leave by saying we were evacuating. I JUST NEEDED TO WEE!!!! And then I fell into a toilet and she caught me and I wet and...oh me oh MY. I just needed the toilet, Miss Penelope!!!" He was aware that he was rambling and talking very very quickly, but there were a lot of words to be said and things to be told and he didn't want Myrtle telling a bunch of lies about him.
Because she was a LIAR.
