Studying....and whispered talk of dangerous things
Who: Theo and Pansy
What: Studying and talking about the latest news
When: After dinner
Where: Library
Warnings: Language

She found, to her surprise, that she didn't much mind helping the younger students. It was a matter of Slytherin pride that they be schooled properly, and so far, they seemed to be getting a better understanding. She wouldn't say anything outright; she was gentle with her gestures, and only had to give them a stern look for them to notice that she wanted them to do differently.

She sauntered up the stairs, a small smile dancing off and on her face as she thought about the other night in the Astronomy Tower. She would remember something sweet and then push it away and try to school her face to her normal indifferent expression. But another idea would creep back into her head and she wouldn't notice that she was smiling. His whole notion of talking to the stars was....corny, but sweet in a way. And as she entered the library doors, she thought she'd tell him just how corny it was.

She moved in, and let her smile fade and lifted her chin slightly, trying to give the impression of the indifferent Slytherin girl, looking for a classmate, as opposed to a happy girl trying to find a boy to sit with. She had her books with her, and the Prophet tucked into her bag; she'd had no time to browse through the society pages at breakfast, and then had worked like mad on a Charm's assignment, and had almost forgotten that it was in there at all.

Theodore had a designated spot at the back of the library, just off to the left, and semi hidden from view. He liked it back there, with a table stacked high with books, it was as though he was alone in his own little world. There were times, he'd come in the library and build his little area just to get away from people. Yes, they were still there, but that didn't mean he had to acknowledge them.

Today, this was the same place he was at, though, he'd pulled another chair into the vicinity of the smallish wall of books. This way, he'd have a place for Pansy to sit as well. After her last message found him, Theo had waited some time before he lifted his head to peer over the tops of the books and waved when he saw her enter the library. He smiled to himself, seeing the slightly raised chin, he didn't know what to expect with that look upon her face.

Pansy let her eyes sweep the room, resting on briefly on a few people before she spied Theo. It made her insides smile to see him, squirreled away in the back, and she dropped her chin slightly, and moved towards him.

Stopping at his side, she looked down, "Is that seat for me?" and she took it and put her book bag down, and peeked over the books he had piled on the table.

"Who are we hiding from?" and then her eyes took on a merry twinkle, "Or did you do this for some other reason?"

She bent her head low, so she was behind the books, and turned her face up towards his, "If I didn't know any better Theo Nott, I'd think you built this so you could sneak a kiss or two from a girl back here."

Theo couldn't help the smirk that came to rest on his features. And so, with a teasing tone, he had to comment. "Pansy, darling, I'd think there's only one thing on your mind this evening."

He chuckled, more or less to himself, he did find it amusing that a kiss was one of the first things to come to Pansy's mind. "I do this every time I'm here," He explained, "It more or less keeps people away who would other wise sit down across from me and try to start up a conversation. And right now, I have the only person I would like to talk to sitting beside me. So, maybe we are hiding.. the who, would be from the rest of the school."

Pansy paused and hidden from view, flashed him a very happy, vibrant smile. She giggled and then sat up, and then knowing she might be seen, tried to drop her smile into a smirk and she didn't even realize that she'd had bat her eyes and given her head a small toss.

"I don't! Honest! I hear to study, Mr. Nott, really," she said, smirking as she said it, "And I suppose we can hide," she added, stretching out the word in a droll voice, "but I don't mind people seeing us study," she added, starting to pull out her Potions text.

	Sorry for suckage. Long day and going to sleep early. whiteknightnott 2009-10-21 12:02 am UTC (link)
	Theo chuckled, both at Pansy's actions and her words. Mimicking her, he pulled out his Potions work and frowned at the page. "Any idea on what's needed? You'd think I could do this class no problem. But, I have no knack for potion making." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Pansy pulled out her own scroll. She was nearly done with the essay Professor Snape had assigned, and she pushed hers over for him to read, "Look. You can use some of my ideas if you want to," she said, her tone changing to something for familiar and kind, "I love Potions. Professor Snape is just so good at it all; he makes it easy to learn it, at least for me," and she turned to get out more quills and thought she could sneak a look at the Prophet.

But the headline caught her attention, and she gave a small cry.

"Oh Theo! Look! This is...terrible!" she said, putting the paper between them and pointing at the headlines about some DEs escaping prison, "How could this happen?!"
