Have you given any more thought to what we found out in Hogsmeade?

I think it could be interesting, but only if we were sure it looked like it came from someone else.

And I've got a good idea who the someone else should be.

What do you think? Did you ask Mr Rosier for any advice? Or were you thinking this is one of those times when he'd just tell you it's better to ask for forgiveness instead of permission?

Oh, and did you think Lares Tamblyn is really all that fit? I mean, he's well nice enough, but, I'm not sure I really fancy him much. Did you think he was acting like he really fancied me, or just as if he felt he ought to make up for Davies being such a prat?

I think I've had the same thought about the 'someone else.' I don't think I'll ask Mr Rosier -- he'd probably think it was childish.

As far as Tamblyn, he's not bad. I definitely think he fancies you. He was trying awfully hard to impress you, and I don't think he'd do that just to make up for Davies. If you don't fancy him, though, I reckon he'll get over it.

If it really is the same someone, then the best part will be when certain people start to think they've trusted the wrong person.

You think he was trying to impress me? Hm. I wonder if maybe everything he was doing last term was because of that--you know, telling me about Davies in the first place, and inviting me to sit with the Prefects and Quidditchers and all. I dunno, it seems a funny way to show interest in a girl, telling her someone else likes her.

And. Well, he did come off rather well in that quiz thing (which wasn't us this time, I hope you know!). To be honest I rather like his brother loads more but he's never given me any signals at all.

Is it this complicated for boys, too, or do you just have a way to tell about each other? Like you and Evgeni--how did you figure out he fancied you?

[alt_seamus]

Well, with Evgeni... he spotted ME, actually. And he was very direct. I mean, once he'd got me alone, he was very direct. His English isn't so good, though.

I don't know what he was thinking last term but Tamblyn definitely seems NOW like he's trying to impress you!
