Millicent's response was the last one Pansy had expected and she made a face as her friend began to cry because she hadn't the faintest idea of how to handle it. She'd always been the one to use tears to get her way, dammit! What was she supposed to do now????
She looked around wildly trying to decide if she should call Justin. Or maybe Draco. Or maybe both of them!
Moving to Millicent, she put her arms around her and patted her on the back. Geez, now she knew what Harry felt like, she thought suddenly, and she was responding just as awkwardly as he did when she cried at him.
'Tell me what's wrong, Millicent. I agree, Draco can be quite the scary bully when he's got the notion so we don't want to bother him. So tell me the truth. What's going on?'
