Speaking of tantrums, the younger Slytherin was certain there was one about to happen. It would probably be one of the worst that Bry’s ever thrown. “I don’t… I don’t forget.” Why couldn’t Bry see that he sought her help for every other subject? Ary decided his best course of action would be to shut up because it didn’t seem as though his words were getting through. What was wrong with him seeking Drake’s help when Drake was the person brightest in the subject? Ary did exactly that when it came to Bry and CoMC… and every other subject.

Ary was not replacing anyone. The idea hadn’t even crossed his mind. How was it his fault that Drake was the second person he had clicked so quickly with? Didn’t the fact that Bryony would always be the first count as everything? His guy friend had gotten the nickname only because ‘drake’ was the name for a male duck, no other reason. The reason Ary hadn’t given one to Bry was because he had yet to find the nickname that spoke to him, to find one that was his own and suited her completely.

The more this conversation progressed, the more he was tempted to lapse into his usual silence. But he had received great advice {from Drake, shhhh} about getting what was bothering him off his chest. Ary knew that he couldn’t expect the same reaction from Bry as he had gotten from Drake but keeping his feelings a secret was becoming overbearing now. The proverbial band aid might as well be ripped off.

“I have a crush on him,’’ the boy began softly. “But I also have a crush on you.” Now his words really were tumbling out. “So it’s both of you… at the same time and… yeah.” He braced himself for the explosion he was certain would come.

Okay, that might very well be a fact. Her family didn't spoil her. So did Ary though, in other ways that were not going to help him at all very soon. When it came to those tantrums she had growing up, he did have a way of distracting her. Bry hadn't forgotten that. The way he had always taken care of her. How it had always been the two of them. How could he not see the problem here? "Sure seems like it." She grumbled, turning to look away from him for a moment. She wasn't going to freakout. Just take a breath Bry.

Oh?! Well it sure felt that way to her! He walked to lessons with Drake. Held HIS hand too! Sat near him all of the time. Hang around him lots. And even had him over at the reserve. Need she go on? If anyone asked her she had every right to feel however it was she feeling.

Had Ary went silent on her right then, Bryony really would've known something was going on and likely would've jumped to her own conclusions. Nothing had prepared her for this though. Nothing.

The blonde heard the words that left Ary's mouth but it couldn't be right. This had to a cruel joke. She couldn't breath. The tears were already stinging her eyes as the words flew out of her mouth before she could even process what she was saying let alone anything else. "No, no nuuuuuuuuuu! That isn't fair!" Was this anger, fear, sadness? Bryony didn't really know but all she wanted to do was get away from here right now and be by herself.

She needed to stop crying and get to her feet first though.
