Hannah's gaze lifted from the boy's and over on to the older girl that the boy was talking to earlier. Hannah could never be alone, not with four sets of parents and eight other siblings, which most of them were probably around the leaky cauldron and the alley somewhere, but for the time being, it looked like Hannah was alone, but she could never be too sure of that.
"Yes and no" Hannah answered back, her gaze now drifting between the three people there, Hannah now noticing that another older boy, though he didn't look much older than herself, had joined the group. "Why was he showing you his underwear for?" Hannah finally asked Felicity, from her viewpoint near the stairs, it had looked like to Hannah that the boy was showing Felicity his underwear, though Hannah could have been wrong about that.

At Felicity's question, Drew's attention was turned from the short Slytherin to the even shorter girl who had managed to join their little group. He gave her an embarassed smile as the flush in his face grew deeper. Great. He'd now have the reputation of being the school perv, flashing the girls in back hallways of the neighborhood pub. This particular little button-nose didn't look much older than ten. Yup... Drew was going to be arrested for sure.
"I wasn't showing her my underwear," he finally said, trying to figure a way out of this one. "They ripped... my shorts... it was an accident."

Before she was able to reply to the girl about the 'yes and no' comment, she was asked a question of the girl's. Merlin, Drew hadn't been showing them to her on purpose, it just kind of happened. "Well, it wasn't on purpose. They more or less ripped and I happened to catch it, and he was just explaining that to me."
Okay, so that last part wasn't true. He didn't explain it to her, she already knew that, and she'd felt bad and decided to comment, and it just sort of went from there. However, hers and Drew's words collided, but at least they were on the same page of trying to get the point across to Hannah that it was an accident.

Hannah's gaze traveled back over to the boy and Hannah looked him up and down, her gaze settling once again to the ripped part of the boy's shorts. "It sure looked like you were showing her you're underwear" Hannah commented back to the boy, still not knowing his name and wondering if she wanted to or not.
Hannah didn't quite believe that it was an accident, no one else in the pub had managed to rip their shorts and here was this boy with a big rip in his shorts and showing the rest of the pub his underwear. "I've got a towel upstairs if you want to borrow it" Hannah offered to the boy, feeling slightly sorry for him that the whole pub seemed to be looking over in his direction.

Drew looked at the little girl cautiously, certain that she would start screaming and he'd have to try and explain himself to a number of law enforcement officials as well as this girl's father and a very large army of older brothers she was bound to have. Instead, she offered him a cover-up and he gladly accepted.
"If you don't mind?" he answered, with a crooked grin, just glad she hadn't screamed.

"Sure, I'll just go and get it" Hannah replied back to the boy, before she quickly made her way up the stairs and into her room where she grabbed her pink towel that had fairies on it.
Bounding down the stairs two at time, Hannah quickly made her way back to where Felicity and the boy with the ripped shorts were standing. "Hope you don't mind that it's pink" Hannah said, handing over her pink towel to the boy and giving him one of her thousand watt smiles. "It's the only one I could find" Hannah shrugged, she could've gone and got one of her brother's blue towel's, but her room had been closer and Hannah figured the pink would match the boy's pink face.

Drew smirked back, but accepted the towel and he wrapped it around himself, tucking it in at the waist to keep it on. Pink with fairies wasn't much of an improvement, but at least it would keep him from being arrested. It didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. He had worn worse.
"Thanks," he told the little girl, smiling down at her and offering a hand. "What's your name again? I'm Drew Thornton. Nice to meet you."

Although Hannah didn't seem to want to believe their explaination of events, she was kind enough to understand the awkward situation Drew was in. The offering of the towel at least put the boy in a better part of the incident, even if it did end up being pink with fairies. While Hannah was gone, Felicity had turned her attention somewhat to Ty; partly to avoid the boxers.
"So Ty," she smiled. "How've you been since last we met?" It was a simple question, obvious enough to show she wasn't much interested in staring at the golden snitch boxers still revealed. Thankfully though, Hannah returned quickly with the awful towel. Oh, how Felicity hated pink, and how many times her mum had tried to force her into pink garments because they accented her blond locks so well.

Ty just listened and smiled a little as both Drew and Felicity launched into an explination of why Drew was showing her his underwear. He thought it was quite amusing that Hannah had actually thought he was doing it on purpose. He watched as Hannah ran off to retrieve a towel. Then hearing Felicity address him he said with a smile, "Pretty good, just been hanging out here for a few days and getting everything I need."
He couldn't help but almost laught when Hannah offered Drew her towel. He had thought it was quite the nice jesture until she showed up with a pink farie towel. Ty had to try really hard not to laugh and to bite back his retort. He wasn't saving Drew the embarrassment he just didn't want the little girl to get upset.

There was something strikingly similar about Drew, but Hannah couldn't put her finger on it. "Danna, I mean, Hannah, Hannah Astley" Hannah introduced herself,stumbling over her name again, her gaze drifting up wards towards Drew's pink face, which matched the now pink towel that was around his waste.
"This is probably going to sound crazy, but I don't know you from somewhere, do I?" Hannah asked, not sure if she wanted to know the answer or not. "By the way, the pink does look good on you" Hannah teased, taking Drew's hand and giving it a shake.

Drew flushed again at the towel comment, but was confused by the girl's insistance that they had met before. "No, not unless you've been to the United States recently," he answered. He was pretty good at remembering faces and names and was positive he hadn't met Hannah before. "i think I would have remebered a button nose like you," he finished with a wide grin.

"Oh I agree, pink is definitely Drew's color," Ty said with a small smile to the little girl, but transforming it into a smirk as he looked back up. He wouldn't have been caught dead wearing pink. After all pink was definitely not his color, it just didn't go well with his eyes. "The faries are also a nice touch," he added with a nod to Hannah. "Don't you agree Felicity?"

Drew ignored Ty, something he was quite used to doing, especially when the second year acted like a bigger butthead than usual. He had noticed that only guys insecure with their manhood had a problem with wearing pink. No, it wasn't Drew's choice of color, but it was after all, just a color.
"So what's a little bird like you doing around here by yourself?" he asked hannah, keeping his attention on her.

"Oh, I don't know," Felicity replied to Ty. "I don't really think pink looks that bad on him." No, the blond wasn't trying to compliment Drew; rather, Felicity thought along the same lines as Drew did, those who were secure with their manhood felt comfortable wearing what there was available. Although, she wouldn't have disagreed with her statement either, pink wasn't a terrible color on the boy. Rather than waiting to see if Ty replied to what Felicity said, she turned her attention to Hannah and Drew. It was a bit strange to her, being she was never allowed out of at least one of her parent's sight until recently, that the young girl was alone.

"No, I haven't been to the United States, but you sure do look familiar to me" Hannah scrunched up her face and tried to remember if she ever saw Drew anywhere and came up empty handed. Hannah still felt like she knew him, but she couldn't figure out why and decided to let it go.
Hannah gave Drew another smile as she watched him turn pink again and she giggled. "At least the pink match's you're coloring" Hannah teased again, slightly grimacing at the button nose and little bird comment.
"I was watching you show off you're underwear to Felicity, but I came inside to get a drink and I'm not by myself, my parents are upstairs in both their rooms, my siblings are around here somewhere, so I'm not by myself" Hannah informed both Drew and Felicity and the other boy. "And even if I was by myself, I'm old enough to look after myself"
