[Baie]

I smiled, thinking of his eyes.

He was shaping up to be a pretty decent guy, I guess.

A lot nicer than I remember him being last year.

I pushed my Dorm door open to find Star and Haven leaning against Star's bed post with their arms crossed and glaring at me.

"Yes?" I rose an eyebrow, pushing the door shut behind me, realizing Pansy was missing. "Where's Pansy?"

"At a meeting." answered Haven, a little too quickly.

"Okay...whats going on, guys?" I asked, crossing my arms now.

"I think we put the wrong girl in place for our little plan," smiled Star, looking over at Haven, then letting her eyes remain on me. "don't you think, Haven?"

"I believe so, Star." Haven almost growled.

"Wait," I paused, looking between the two of them and uncrossing my arms. "you don't want to put me in -"

"- No, I think that's exactly what we wan to do Baie," smiled Star, giggling with Haven.

"But I can't -" I started, but Haven interrupted me.

"- can't what? " she inquired starring at me. "Can't stand him? Bullshit -"

" - but -" I started again, but Star interrupted me this time. 

"- we heard you flirting at the Quidditch Pitch Baie." She smiled.

"You heard that, uh?" I asked, nervously almost hugging myself. "What all did you guys hear?"

"Does it matter?" Haven asked, sounding really annoyed.

"Are -" I paused, looking from Star to Haven. "- are you not okay with this idea?"

"No, I'm not okay with this!" Haven shouted, glaring over at Star. "It was her idea anyway."

"That's kind of the point in putting her in this position..." giggled Star, pointing at me.

"...what if I don't want to do this?" I inquired, frowning.

"What do you mean, you don't want to do this?" Star turned from Haven to face me. "You actually give a fuck about this snake don't you?"

"No." I answered, too quickly.

I shifted uncomfortably. 

"I knew you wouldn't go through with this shit." spat Haven, shaking her head. "You came up with the idea, must of have been an in-the-moment idea."

"In-the-moment idea?" asked Star, turning back to Haven.

"Yeah, she don't have the be balls to go through it -" started Haven.

"- you're really pissing me off, Haven." I spat, stepping forward. "I can do whatever I want whenever I want to do it."

"Oh?" smiled Haven stepping towards me. "Then prove it."

"Fine." I smirked.

"Fine?" Haven repeated, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah?" asked Star, excited.

"Yeah." I nodded, not removing my gaze from Havens'. "On one condition," 

Haven and Star paused.

"Yes?" pushed Star, leaning forward. 

"Haven..." I started, clearing my throat a little, stepping closer to her this time. I starred into her eyes, then moved my eyes down her body and back up to her gaze. "...shut the fuck up."
