"Slytherin... Good enough," Drew answered. "Charlie's the brains of the house, but Reina thinks she is. Stick with Charlie and you're good to go... fourth year like us. Snake pit is down in the dungeons. Easy enough to find but we can help you if you want..."

Nicolae nodded his head. "Okay so I should stick with some dude name Charlie and basically humor the broad named Reina. Go it. Dungeons?" Nicolae questioned. He wasn't sure he wanted to be in the dungeons when the rest of the castle looked so lavished.

"Charlie's a girl," Lily pointed out to him. She had finished her head to toe evalulation. This was yet another 4th year taller then her. But that was to be expected. "Dungeons yes. I don't know where they are though. Drew probably does. He's been here longer than me."

"Yeah, that's about it," Drew answered, overlooking the mistake in gender. He always figured it was a good laugh when the new snakes realized Charlie was a girl.
Too bad he never got to see it.

"Oh, Charlie's a chick." Nicolae noticed that Lily was inspecting him and he was dying to figure out what her conclusion was. Nicolae just nodded at Drew, but he stared at Lily. "So how do I rate? Most girls find me devilishly handsome and charming when I try. Especially when I do the smile." Nicolae shot her with a half smirk half smile that deepened his dimples.

Lily blushed furiously. She wasn't really used to that kind of well at the moment she didn't know what to call it. "I try not to rate by how people look," Lily said, twisting her hands. "What's more important is what's in here," she pointed to her heart. "Heck otherwise I'd be afraid of nearly everyone I met."

It was obvious that Lily was protected. Either that or he was very far out of her league. It was natural to flirt, but he felt that with her flirting a little was too much for her. He did however like her answer.
"Is that right, well what ya come up wid? Why would you be scared of people if you judged them by their looks." Nicolae couldn't help himself he put his full gaze on Lily staring at her lips as she talked.

{aw, dang, Lily had to ruin my joke ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) } Drew just smirked at the flirting going back and forth. He pegged the guy for a player, but not as bad as some of the other guys around school. He figured Nicolae would either get along great with Sora, or they'd kill each other. As for Lily, he figured he'd learn a little more about this guy before telling her not to date him.

This question it seemed so dangerous to her. It would mean remembering her past. Remembering what had happened. But she had too. She knew she could talk about this. She knew she could. She was stronger now. And Drew was here. "Everyone's - Everyone's so much taller than me always." She said. "And people haven't - people haven't treated me right in the past." She didn't want to say guys especially. She didn't want to make it seem like she was scared of guys. Or that she hated them. So she just left it at people. Which was true because it's not like the girls had tried to befriend her. ((Lol I posted first! Serves you right for being a slow thinker ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) ))

{What joke? Darn am I that obvious?}
Nicolae looked at Drew and wasn't sure what he saw in his eyes. He was sure that the guy was probably debating on how to tell him to knock it off. For some reason that made Nicolae want to do it even more.
Nicolae concentrated on Lily's words and though he wasn't the perfect role model. Heck, he was associated with a gang back home the one thing he did not tolerate was hurting females. No matter what, there was no excuses. Nicolae heard it in her voice. She was abused and he wasn't an idiot; by taller people. More than likely guys and what did she say before. About her father. It was probably her father who abused her and turned her off of all guys. Nicolae now knew why Drew wanted to tell him to leave Lily alone, though he still felt an urge to keep flirting with her.
"I'm sorry," he said quietly meaning every word of it. Physically and mentally he pulled back from her. Giving her space.

"Not your fault," Lily said shaking her head. "Things have gotten a lot better for me since I came here. I'm learning to live with the past and move on with my life, aren't I Drew?" She glanced over at him for some reassurance that she was doing better with her life. That she wasn't screwing it up so much now.

"Yeah, you are," Drew answered, laughing a bit at her but putting an arm around her, not only to give her a bit of support, but to make it clear to this other guy that she was well protected.
Why she was letting the new guy know so much at the first meeting was a different concern though. He'd have to talk to her about that.

It didn't escape Nicolae when Drew put his arm around Lily's shoulders and for a brief moment he felt something rise up in him, but he quickly shook it off. He didn't want to be here and she was protected without him; obviously.
"That's good," he replied to them both. "I hate to have to get in someone's arse for hurting a girl."

Lily smiled. For a snake, he wasn't all that bad. She wondered again, as she had wondered many time before, why there weren't people like this in Germany. She could beat the nightmares now. And she felt stronger than she ever had before. She only had one battle left to fight. She only needed fully to love herself now.

Nicolae saw her eyes and they were too trusting. "Don't get me wrong. I'm not the nicest guy. Far from it, but I don't condone hurting a broad." Nicolae then smiled arrogantly wide. "They're for making love and doing our bidding." Nicolae was joking though he briefly wondered if he should tell them he killed a man. Naw, it'll serve no purpose.
