Scarlett could watch him and could tell that she had hit a soft spot. She smiled and then tuned her gazed to the ground. She brought her legs up on the chair and wrapped her arms around her knees. She seemed to always sit like this, when she had a choose. It was just the must comfortable postion for her.
She still didn't really understand, the whole thing. "So, were you given up for adoption at birth or later on did something happen?," she asked, since she wasn't getting the whole story and she couldn't clearly get the picture of how or why he was adopted and seprated from his brother. She wanted to her what he had to say, her favorite part of a conversation for her was the listening part.

"Something happened.........."
He said kind of fading out of the subject, it wasn't something that Michael liked to talk about often, but to tell Scarlett would be like opening his heart to her, he knew that he had strong feelings for her but was he ready to share the reason why he was put up for adoption at a young age.
He wanted to, but he wanted her to ease it out of him.

Her brown eyes looked up at his blue ones and she could see that this wasn't an easy thing for him to talk about. She didn't want to push him any further then what he wanted to tell her. So, Scarlett smiled, softly, at the boy and reached out to take his hand in hers. In an attempt to show him that she understood him. She did she didn't know how easily she could've talked to him about her mother and what had happened to her.
"If you don't want to talk about it we can change the subject," her voice was soft and caring.

Mike looked up her and nodded slightly, he would tell her later but with that being said she would probably two and two together and figure out what he was hesitent to tell her.
"I don't mean to make it sound like it's you, because I want to tell you but I just don't know what to say"
He said softly as he looked at their hands.

"You don't have to say anything," she smiled, reassuring him that she hadn't token any offence to his decision. She let her hand slip out of his and brought it back up to her knees. She glanced up at the sky, "You know we don't have to talk about that, " she smiled, as she tried to lighten up the mood. "We can go back to looking at the shapes of the clouds," it was just a suggestion, since she didn't know what else to say.

"Mmmm"
Was the response that she got from Michael, whom at that time was busy looking down at the floor, he would do just about anything to get his mind off the subject of his parents and how they met their rather drastic end.
He sighed lightly as he looked back up and smiled at Scarlett before speaking once more to the girl.
"Thanks Scarlett"

"No, need to thank me," she said with a big smile. "I'll always be here," after saying that she looked away from him and back up at the sky. However, she didn't speak again, she would let him do that whe he was ready. She didn't mind sitting in the silence with him, it wasn't about talking it was the simple fact that she was with him and that was enough.
She looked up at the dark clouds and the sun tring to escape from them and another breeze blew, kissing her face. Her bangs falling in her eyes but she didn't want to unwrap her hands from her knees, so instead of simply brushing them away she tried blowing them out of her eyes. Rather, unsuccessfully at that. She let out a small sigh, when she saw that approch wasn't working.

"Here let me help you"
Mike said as he noticed her trying to blow the hair from in front of her eyes, rather unsuccessfully at that. He reached over and slid one side across before moving to the other, his fingers brushing softly against her cheeks as he did so, and he could feel himself blushing once more.

Her eyes fell on him once more and she smiled. She could help but smile when she was around him. It always worked that way Mike= Smile. As he brushed his fingers on her cheeks, she couls feel her cheeck become a rosy color. She tried to hide it as best she could but how could she hide that?
"Thank you," was all she managed to get out. She smiled at him and took a deep breathe to get herself under some type of control.

Mike caught a glance of her red cheeks as she tried to hide them from him, as he watched her he couldn't help but laugh a little bit, there were definitely mutual feelings between the two of them, but when they would take those feelings a step further was a mystery to both of them.
"That's okay, Scarlett"
He said with a grin on his face.

Her eyes moved from him to the ground, the sky, and then the ground once more. She smiled as he spoke and then her eyes fell on him again. This was crazy she had developed feelings for this guy after knowing him a few days. How did she manage that one? She didn't know she just knew the attraction was there, she took a deep breath in. Whatever, the case maybe things were going to unfold sooner or later. Only tim would tell if it was sooner rather then later.
"So, do you think I'll be able to find a stuffed animal of our unibear?," she joked.

Seanna was on her way up to the owlery, a letter in her hand addressed to her parent's telling them how much Percy had progressed since she had been training him. Said duck was waddling beside her, now and then taking flight in front of her as they made their way up the stairs and Seanna had caught the end of Scarlett's sentence off something to do with bears.
Getting closer to the two in the tower, a grin was evident on the girl's face. "Oh hi, Scarlett... Mike" Seanna uttered, a short nod directed towards Mike, and Percy went over to the pair of them and stared incredulously up at the both of them. Percy was smart, he knew something was up between the two of them and even Seanna had an inkling, but she couldn't really care less, it wasn't her business. "Nice day, isn't it?."

Scarlett's eyes made their way to the door as she saw it open, she smiled up at the Huffle girl, who had just walked in. She quickly recognized her as being the same girl she had met the first day, at the entrance hall and smiled at her. "Hi Seanna, How are you?," she asked as she saw the duck waddle up to them. "Oh, his a cutie," she commented with a small laugh, she automatically said he but she wasn't sure what gender the duck really was. The girl hadn't seen any of the animals that roamed the school, but this duck didn't look ordinary, he almost had a human feel to him.
"It really is," she answered to Seanna's question.

"I'm good, great even, just going to post a letter" Seanna replied to Scarlett, holding up the letter so the new girl could see. Looking down at her duck, Seanna's smile got wider, "Yeah, he sure is a cutie, quite a smart cutie to" So far, so good. Seanna was managing to keep her emotion's under control and she gave herself a mental pat on the book, she could do this, she could be nice to Mike... or try and be nice to Mike.
Turning her attention away from Scarlett, Seanna scrutinized Mike for awhile. The girl still felt wary around him and was thinking that he was always up to something, but Mike didn't have to know that, she could be nice, she was always nice, she just wasn't going to apologize for anything though, it was his fault she was like this, plain and simple. "How have you been, Mike?" Good, no smart comment, she could do this and yet, she really didn't want to do it.

Mike had just opened his mouth to reply to Scarlett's comment about the possibility of getting a unibear stuffed animal when Seanna walked into the room, Mike was a little peeved at her coming in but wasn't going to show that she was getting under his skin once more, and then that duck of hers waddled in after her.
"Not too bad and yourself Seanna?"
He asked back, he withheld any smart remarks he wanted to make or could make to Seanna, and it was probably for the best, who knew what the future would hold, maybe they could make up and become friends but then on the other end of the scale the opposite could happen and after Mike left Hogwarts it would leave Scarlett to be somewhat swayed by Seanna.
Who knows what could happen..
