Ash argued with herself in her head- tell- or no tell? Did Ari really want to know- or no? She didn't know which to pick. It sort of seemed like one of those decisions that she had to make when she was a six year old; should she buy the pink ribbon or the green one?
" Well.. you see..." she felt face heat up and burn. Ash clenched her hands, knowing that Ari wouldn't tell; she just seemed to her to be the honest and trustworthy type. But Ash still was worried about what she would think when she found out...
" Um.. uh... " she swallowed. This would the second person she would tell..
" Nevermind." or not.
" Drew.", or maybe so, " I like him." She hid her face in her hands, not believeing what she had just done. You told her. I can't believe that you told her. T_T; Now she's going to tell Drew and Drew is going to be weird around you and you will die. Yes- you will die.
(( Wow- first person Ash actually told ;D (Talia doesn't count T_T))

Arianna snorted. She really couldn't help it. WAAY too many girls found themselves liking Drew. Unfortunately, she'd been one of them once upon a time.
"Sorry to say this," she started out, not sure how to say what she had to say without sounding blunt. What she was about to say, though, was true, "but I suggest you just forget about it. Find another guy to like. Drew is...well....It's just better just to stay friends."
There. She'd said it. And without saying anything she shouldn't. She hoped, anyway. Arianna felt she wasn't allowed to talk about the boy's relationships even to him, let alone to air out her frustrations to Ash.

She didn't really know what to say to Ari's reaction. It was like... it was so different from what she had expected. Ash liked to place her trust in people and she liked to feel that she could trust people- though at other times... she would regret her actions. The Ravenclaw let out a small, forced laugh and smile.
" Well- I know..." she felt Arianna's words sinking in. The older girl was absolutely right. " I sort of guessed already..." she paused, " Yeah... I mean-- he has a girlfriend and everything... and I'm only a fourth year."
Ash sighed, trying to hide away the disappointment, " I don't know what I was thinking." she laughed again.
Somehow, this actually hurt. She had never really thought that she had a chance with him- ever but it felt completely different when it came from someone else. She knew that she would never be able to summon the courage to tell him anyway; it was getting harder and harder to talk to him casually... the thought about confessing always trailing her mind.

"Same," Arianna chuckled lightly. She could see alot of herself in Ash. It really wasn't too long ago when she was in the same boat. There had also been a time when she randomly burst into fits of anger without warning. That had been a tough time for her. A time she did not want to relive.
"Though I was a third year at the time..." she shook her head. "Maybe he just doesn't like girls from his own house. I dunno."

Nodding, she stood up.
Ash turned to Arianna, " Um... I think I should go now." she smiled, " Dinner's already began and I still have tons of Astronomy to finish." She laughed a little, " I'm really sorry about tonight... just tell me if there's anything I can do to make up for it." Ash bowed her head slightly and straightened her skirt.
Drew didn't like girls from his own house? Ash didn't know and told herself that she didn't care- even though she did. What Arianna had said was true. It was all true and Ash knew it; she just didn't want to believe it- which was foolish of her and she knew that too...

"No, it's okay," Arianna assured the girl once more, waving her off. She was starting to feel a bit bad about what she had just said, but she really didn't want Ash to get her hopes up. Arianna already knew what that was like and didn't want the girl to go through the same thing. "I'll let you get on down to dinner now."
Sighing, Arianna leaned back against the wall and watched Ash as the girl prepared to leave. She hoped she hadn't just made things worse between the two of them.

Nodding, she smiled to the older Ravenclaw. The reality of it all hit her hard like an unpleasant splash of water in the morning. It was sort of sad to know that he would never accept her... in that way; however, she couldn't change how she felt just because she knew it was for the best.
Half way down the hall, she turned around swiftly to lock eyes with Ari again, " Please don't tell anyone." she was serious. It was a something that she'd rather keep hush-hush. Too many people knowing would lead to something bad... What if Drew found out? She knew that he would be uncomfortable with talking to her-- that their relationship would turn into an awkward mess that she couldn't fix. She didn't want that to happen... that's why, she would never tell the boy...
