"Oh Merlin Rose, we've been over this a thousand times. If all animals are equal, how can some be more equal than others?" Teddy sighed and ran a hand through his unruly and currently blue hair as Rose started her rant all over again for the millionth time.
It was a habit that annoyed Rose to no avail, which was precicely why he did it.
At the monent he was so sick of her flawed logic that he just wanted this date to be over. He liked rose, he really did, there was just one problem.
She wouldn't shut up.
"Don't you see Teddy? Humans are animals, yet were more equal then say, House Elves- I mean, we get paid to work and they don't and-" Her voice had been steadily rising to the point where what started as a simple explanation turned into a full blown passionate S.P.E.W rant.
Teddy sighed again, and once more ran a hand through his still blue hair, refusing to pay attention to anything she said.
As much as he liked Rose, some things just weren't worth it.
Such a shame, he thought, she really is an attractive girl.
"Rose," he said, a slight strain was detectable in his voice, "do me a favour and just shut up!"
And with that, he promptly apparated away leaving a very confused Rose behind to pay the bill.
