Kyli stared at her, unable to process what she'd just heard. '
charles? with
elsie
'
She struggled for words. Then, stood up, and pushed past Elsie. she slammed the door behind her.
When she reached the common room, she looked round for someone she knew. And saw Sei, sitting by the fire, staring into the flames.
He watched the fire. . .
Kyli made her way over to him, and threw herself down next to him. "hey Sei" she said, miserably.
Charles looked up from the other side of the room when he heard Kyli's voice.
Sei looked across at her.
"What's up? You look like you're the definition of blue."
"nah. Just the opposite of unpissed off."
He raised his eyebrows.
"With who? Apart from Elsie of course."
"charles" she said shortly. The sadness has passed, now she was just angry.
"Why? What's he done. Insulted your quidditch team or something?"
"no" she scowled, "just asked Elsie to the fricking ball"
"Eh? I thought you two were going out or something? What went wrong?"
"he's a git."
Charles was offended, but still didn't want to alert her to his prescence.
". . That doesnt exactly answer my question. Are you two just going through one of those little tiffs?"
He said, starting to smile.
"little? he thinks I fancy you!" Kyli breathed heavilyt, "he seems to have this irratating idea that every guy I speak to i am secretly wishing that I could snog!"
"Oh. Lovely. . . Seems like your relationship lacks trust. . ."
"you think?"
"Just a bit."
Kyli smiled. "yeh..."
He was now immitating a relationship counsellor.
"It seems that you two need to talk."
"no. He needs to stop being such a fricking prick"
"Well there's that too. Fricking prickitus is very common in faulty relationships these days." He joked.
Kyli sighed and put her head in her hands, "yeh, but that doesn't make it any better, does it?"
He thought for a moment.
"Aww, cheer up Kyli."
He said putting an arm around her.
Charles glared.
"how amI supposed to cheer up?" babble babble babble, sob sob sob, cry cry cry, "and I dont even ahve someone to go with to this fricking ball tonight,"
"I'm sure you can find someone." He said, trying to console her.
"but it's tonight! how the hell am I going to find someone by tonight!?" she sobbed
He thought for a moment. Meh, saire wouldnt mind.. . . would she? . . . non. . . i mean, no.
"Well. . . How about if I take you?"
Kyli looked at him through her tears, "seriously?" she asked increduously
"Well. . If you dont think I'd scare everyone with my face..."
"no you wouldn't! there's nothing wrong with your face!"
