Evelyn practically ran to the Professor's side.

You know, to help with stuff. Yea, she was helping...with stuff.

She was helping to make sure she didn't scream and run away and totally make all the acromantulas attack them. By being RIGHT NEXT TO the professor. Right there.

Would she mind of the Slytherin clinged to her arm or something? It would be rather weird and awkward, sure, but the fourth year didn't care at the moment. The Professor had experience with these creatures, so obviously she was the safest place to be!

Right? The....the professor...she wasn't going to push Evelyn away or anything right? Into a pile of those monsters? EEP!
