Drew looked at her steadily. If he told her and she made fun of him, he'd pound her. Girl or not, he'd pound her good.
Or better yet, he'd get Alhana to do it so he wouldn't have the guilt of pounding a girl hanging over his head.
"It's like... it's like she ... completes me. Like I'm not whole without her," Drew answered carefully. "She makes me a better person."

Charlie remained as neutral as she could. Had she heard that somewhere in muggle pop culture? It was very hard to keep that straight face as she did. But looking at him, his boysih hopeful face... she couldn't be mean. Besides, she had bothered to ask. Blinking a few times, she simply nodded.

"Yeah, I know it's a sucky Tom Cruise movie, but that's how it goes," Drew said, understanding the look on Charlie's face. He scratched the back of his neck nervously, waiting for the teasing to start.

"Tom Cruise?" Charlie mouthed silently. Saying anything right now would mean saying something like, "HAHA! You're a corny romantic." And for her sake, she didn't say that.

"Muggle actor?" Drew clarified, knowing Charlie was pretty well versed in muggle culture. She HAD to know who Tom Cruise was. "Crazy guy who jumps on couches and thinks he knows more than he really does?"

"OH! Yeah," She continued to mouthe, not daring to speak. In one letter her father sent, he always devoted a small space for her about muggle life. "I remember," she added with no sound.

Drew fell silent and stared at the ground in front of him. He had already gotten a bit more sappier than he had intended, though he knew he had kind of asked for it by confiding in Charlie to begin with.

By the upteenth pause of silence, Charlie could regain herself before succumbing to any verbal diarrhea. "Yeah... er...." However, the words ran out for the Slytherin. What else could she say? She had to choose her words wisely.

Drew gave her a sideways look. "Go ahead... mess with me about it," he challenged. He was feeling a little better and figured he could handle it. Besides, waiting for tease he knew was coming was driving him nuts.

Charlie raised a brow. "For real? I-I can do it? Like, you'll be fine, dude?" She was evolving from her knees to her chest to the knees bent under her. The position told her she was ready and prepared.

Drew frowned back and took a deep breath, steeling himself for the worst. "What have you got?" he asked, ready and waiting for whatever she threw at him.
At least he hoped so.

Charlie looked at him reluctantly and a smile crept. Jumping up from the ground, she instantly scared a passing second year. But that didn't matter to her (or it did, as it was her intial goal). "Ready?" She took a big, deep breath, ready to say it.... "Good for you." And she began to walk away.

Drew jumped up after her, picking up his shoes as he passed where they had fallen. "What? That's it? That's all I'm getting?" he asked, hardly beliving he was getting off that easy. "You realize, this is a one time only opportunity, right?"

"Here's the thing," Charlie said as she kept on with her fast pace of a walk. Her tone was that a professional, very straight foward and razor sharp, "Anyone asks, you say that I tore you a new one. I'm being easy here, and I dunno why. But this could mess with my rep. You got that?"

Drew paused slightly at her suggestion before frowning and shaking his head. "How about this conversation never happened?" he suggested. He didn't want Charlie spreading it around school that he was a sappy romantic who was basically whipped by his girlfriend.
