"I can't go to jail! I'm too skinny for jail! I can't even lift weights!"
"I'm sorry, what? Who's going to jail?"
"Blaise apparently" I said to Daphne and Pansy quietly after they had appeared behind the sofa I sat on as we watched Blaise pace around in front of us frantically with either a confused or amused look on our faces
"What have we missed?"
"I don't know, he's just been pacing and talking to himself for about the last ten minutes"
"Are you going to ask him what he's doing?"
"No- it's far too funny right now" I said to the two laughing as they sat down on either side of me and we continued to watch him pace until he stopped abruptly and stared ahead as the three of us swapped looks
"Blaise? You alright mate?"
"I don't know what I'm doing anymore"
"Oh my god same" Pansy snorted quietly as I tried to keep down a laugh as he sat down on the couch opposite us and stared at the table in front of him intently
"You look depressed and it's highly amusing" she said to him as I pinged the back of her head as I looked at him for a moment before pushing myself up and walking over to him as I sat down beside him
"Penny for your thoughts?"
"Trust me Lia you don't want to hear my thoughts"
"Bold assumption"
"But it's true"
"Is it?"
"Well, I can't determine that only you can, I was only making a guess"
"So anyway- what was all this about you not being able to lift weights? And not wanting to go to jail?" I asked amused as he shrugged and continued to stare blankly at the table
"Also, I know fine damn well that you can lift weights so don't give me that shit" I said to him with a smirk growing on my face as he let out a laugh
"Oh shut it"
"Is this coming from me trying to murder Lockhart? And saying you would be an accessory to murder?"
"Maybe"
"Merlin Blaise, I wouldn't let you get into trouble for some stupid shit I got myself into" I told him laughing as he looked at me with a smile
"There's that smile!"
"You still got a detention"
"I know but so did you. But it was my fault, I was running with a seven inch knife in my hand after all"
"Where did you even get that knife from anyway?"
"Does that really matter?"
"Yes, considering you tried to-"
"I don't think it does" I said laughing as he shook his head amused, a still uncertain look to him
"What can I do to cheer you up?"
"Lia you don't-"
"I don't want to see you upset or stressed Blaise, is there any homework you need done? Or something else?"
"Well... I don't want to be a prick but I do need help with Charms and Astronomy"
"I'll do it"
"Thank you but I'm only needing help with it-"
"Blaise, I'll do it, honestly. Do you want to go for a walk?" I asked amused as he nodded and we pushed ourselves up, finding the other two gone as I shrugged laughing while I flicked my wand, our cloaks appearing as we left the common room and made our way to the grounds
