Re: Riona&Gilderoy
Gilderoy kept the smile in place, however at her comment it gradually become more genuine and open. "They don't, but that's what keeps me on my toes, I suppose."
Being a Prefect was something that Gilderoy enjoyed, one of the few matters that had been able to draw a word--not exactly praise, but enough-- from his generally silent and distant father. Something which he needed to do his best at, if he hoped to become Head of his House.
"Only seven years." He answered, to show that it was not a problem of Riona to ask. Gilderoy said nothing to show it, however he was touched, even pleased, that she was choosing to spend time with him. To talk to him.
He had always told himself he was the best at anything and everything, loved by the student body...perhaps it wasn't just a silly little lie. After all, Riona had approached him.
Feeling considerably better about the night, Gilderoy nearly missed the offer, and when he looked at her, it was in surprise, pale brows arching, and blue eyes wider.
"Your date wouldn't mind? Why, that's very kind of you, Riona!"
