Me:

She catches him by the shoulder on his way out of the classroom, her grasp gentle — easily broken, not easily ignored. It takes Astoria all of ten seconds, eyes scanning his face, the set of his shoulders and his jaw, the way he holds tension in his hands, before she lets out a worried sigh. After a beat she releases his shoulder, but her hands hover gently over his arm.

     “When was the last time you slept? Or drank water? Or ate something solid?” And then, with another sigh, she nods towards her office. “I’ll have you excused from your next class, if you’d like. The sofa’s been reupholstered, and you can grab a nap.”

     she  plays  with  the  straw,  sigh  breaking  out  of  ruby  lips  before  leaning  forward  to  talk  to  him.  it  is  rare  for  a  boy  to  be  around  so  poppy  tries  to  enjoy  it  when  she  can  /  especially  when  it  is  nick.  “always  a  pleasure  to  have  you  around,  nicholas.  a  sight  for  sore  eyes”,  the  blonde  mumbles,  chuckling  before  taking  a  sip.  “how  are  my  fellow  annoying  classmates  treating  you?  heard  they  are  all  throwing  themselves  at  you  like  bear  fighting  for  the  last  piece  of  fish.”

       “ nicky, you promised. “    soft voice is used as a mistress tries to seduce her lover. known to be a bitch and the evil queen, pansy knows to play her strengths when she is after something. nick was an old friend and there was no way she would let him run away. not when she was B O R E D out of her mind and needed company.     “ what else are you going to do on a friday night? “
