Brayden waits for her to answer again, but she didn't "Well, is there?" he knew Riley was lost in thought, but he wasnt sure over what.

[glow=red,2,300]Riley's heart sank...she let out a sigh and quietly answered "No." She felt herself beginning to become emotional and she didn't want Brayden to see her do it. "Thank you for your time." she said as she quickly stood up spilling her tea all over herself. She then speedily headed for the door, half-hoping he would catch her...[/glow]

"Wait!" Brayden flicks his wand and the door shuts, "What's wrong, did I do something to upset you?" He walks over and places a hand on her shoulder. He had this power to calm people down with the slightest touch, Brayden was trained to be a Healer at St. Mungo's. "I didn't mean to."

[glow=red,2,300]Riley stopped, his warm hand felt nice on her shoulder, his touch was soothing...she was calm... "You didn't do anything, not one little thing..." she took a deep breath, she felt like she could tell anything, who knows maybe he liked her back...she didn't care, she would tell him and if he didn't like her she would move on and that would be the end of it...She slowly turned to face him, god he was beautiful. "You see..." she began, "I sort of find you...I think you're...well...attractive..." There, she had said it, there was no doubt anymore. But now she was terrified she had just told a teacher that she had the hots for him...she knew that there could be no happy ending to this, he could never care for her in that way...[/glow]

Brayden was surprised that Riley said that. No one has ever told him that he was attractive, "Wow, um... yea... I'm not sure exactly what to say to this." He takes his hand off her and steps back. "I'm a teacher, maybe if we weren't exactly student and teacher we could, but I can't lose this job." Brayden hands her a napkin and smiles at her, "Maybe one day." He goes and picks up the tea cup that is now rolling around on the floor.

[glow=red,2,300]Riley kept her head down, she didn't know what to say either...had she really just told him he was attractive? A teacher, was she mad? She didn't know what to do with herself so she just sat down on the classroom floor. She wanted to cry but then she didn't. She felt so foolish. "You must think I'm a fool acting all crazy like this..." she said "I'm sorry...I didn't mean for this to happen, I certainly think you're cute but don't worry, I don't want to marry you or anything." she gave a small laugh "At least not yet." she said with a wink. "But the whole student/teacher/age thing aside, I think you could really like me..."[/glow]

"Come on, let's get off the floor." Brayden holds his hand out for her, "we never know waht could happen, I could like you when you graduate." he smiles

[glow=red,2,300]She took his hand, enjoying its warmth. "Well I am 17 right now you know." she said. "I graduate this year...but if you don't like me now what hope have I?..."[/glow]

"I only just met you Riley, we have all year to get to know eachother. The problem isn't hope." He takes her back to her seat before finishing cleaning up, "would you like anything to eat or drink again?"

[glow=red,2,300]"I see..." she said quietly. "It's no big deal Brayden, even if you get to know me and you still aren't interested, it's OK" she said with a smile. "I should get out of your hair now I suppose, I'll see you later..." She gathered her things, and began walking towards the door. She stopped and turned toward Brayden once more, "You're pretty amazing you know that?" and without saying another word she left the classroom leaving Brayden alone...[/glow]

Brayden watches her leave and he sits back down, waiting for the other students he wanted to talk to. He hopes nothing like that happens again.

David passed Riley in the corridor but was too caught up in his own thoughts to really interact with her. What did the slytherin head want with him, he was a gryffindor he hadn't done or said anything to the guys sister to upset him, did he? David sighed it didn't matter now he would find out soon enough. He shuffled awkwardly into the potions classroom and stood in front of the professors desk and stared determinedly at the floor. David shifted his weight back and forth he was always uncomfortable in the dungeons. "So, you wanted to talk to me professor?." he was focused intently on keeping his voice from cracking.

Gwenllian MacKendrick Peeked hesitantly into the classroom. David was atanding near the desk. She wasn't sure if Professor Valder wanted to meet with his students as a group or idividually so she knocked lightly on the doorframe and gave a short wave to Allie's brother.

"Sit down please, David." He motions to the empty seat. Brayden hears a knock at the door, he sees Gwen standing out there waiting, "Give us a few minutes Gwen and we will talk next... if you would kindly wait outside." he turned his attention back to David. "I asked you here because I wanted to know what type of potions you would like to learn about."

Gwen nodded curtly before retreating to the corridor. She leaned her back against the wall and slid down untill she was sitting on the floor. She took her wand from her pocket and proceeded to make designs in the air with multi colored sparks to pass the time. Each complex pattern would hover in the air before collapsing upon itself. She wondered what the class would be like this year. She had always been good in potions but she had also been bored, she wasn't confident that just a new teacher would be enough to make it interesting.
