Chapter 12: Crushing Matters

"Draco are you jealous?" I asked.
"Of what? The Weasle Twin? Why would I be?"
"Because he's flirting with me."
"I'm not jealous."
There was a pause before,
"Draco do you have a crush on me?"

I looked over at Gwen and grinned. She was working the little slytherin prince like a regular puppeteer.
I could almost SEE Draco picking (haughtily) nuts out of her hand.
The scene made me giggle slighty which in turn made the three slytherins surrounding me lift skeptical eyebrows my way.
"Oh come on, as if you never had mad little chuckles to something you'd just /thought/."
Snape didn't answer, more like he seemed exasperated, Draco ignored me all together and Gwen was back in one of her fantasy lands...where I could guess most of the scenes involved her, Draco and some PG17 rating...or was that my fantasy land?
I decided these people were too boring for my awesomeness at the moment and discreetly left them to their own devices...except for Snape who whirled around when the door creaked as I pushed it open.
I made a run for it ...again... not expecting anyone to run after me (especially after what I'd done to Snape a few minutes previously) but running for fun just the same.
After a few hours of cosplaying various 007 scenes with hummed theme music I decided to return to Gwen's common room...after all she had the candy! I just hoped she hadn't eaten everything, shared with other slytherins...or worse..GIVEN THEM AWAY!
I stopped in front of the slytherin portrait and pouted. How on earth could I open this without the password?
"If I look cunning enough will you let me pass through without the magic word?" I asked Salazar Slytherin who was currently regally glaring at me from his seated position in the painting.
No answer.
"My secret plans are to conquer the world and make my power the Ultimate Religion! Everyone shall bow to me in fear and despair!"
Still nothing...but the portrait swung inwards, letting me through.
"With my army of Kuroshitsuji plushies and gummy rabbits!"
I jumped in laughing as the portrait narrowly missed hitting me as it closed hard at my bag, Salazar's evil hisses heard even through the thick bricks.
"Alex?" I looked around the dark dungeons worriedly. Figures I'd attract the creepy ghosts!
A pale hand suddenly brushed my shoulder and I screamed.
"Shhh! It's me! Man I've been waiting for you for so long the fire went out!"
I sighed in relief while Gwen dragged me to the girl's common room and over to her bed where she'd spelled (or asked someone to spell) the curtains closed, soundproof and light proof from the inside.
"Awesoooooooome..." I whispered in awe as we both climbed into her bed and pulled the curtains closed.
"I know." She smirked at me and I shuddered.
"You're a little creepy sometimes."
Gwen waited.
"No. Not Brilliant darling. Sorry."
I burst out laughing at her put out expression.
"Meanie." She muttered and I nodded seriously, hand on my heart.
"So...what are we going to do now? I mean it's all fun and cool to be here but let's face it...I'm bored. THere are hot guys but no action! I need my shot of adrenaline!" I shook her by the shoulders so that her head lolled around on her neck.
"Oh hush! We're staying a bit more!"
I looked at her with my practiced 'Sebastian' look (the demon from my moment-favorite manga).
It's a refined look of amusement mixed with bored-know-it-all sneer and a hint of arrogance.
...and if Gwen's freaked out look was any indication I...completely messed it up.
"You want..to...stay. Okay..."
I let my head fall forward, hair obscuring my face,
"I guess we won't be visiting Riddick and his smexchy bulging muscles nor Aragorn our dear rugged ranger nor any other...hot...adventurous...heroes..." I looked up at her from under my lashes.
Gwen was frozen... what was she thinking I wonder... Tee hee hee...
