( 'I wonder what my parents would do to me if I didn't go back to school.' )

They were seriously just sitting there studying. Seriously! She needed help with Charms, Elphias had offered, and now they were sitting at the little square table in the corner, going over notes and figuring out theories. There was no reason for the common room to have emptied and left them completely and entirely alone. None. They were studying, nothing else! Phoebe hadn't even noticed that they were abandoned until the crackle of the firewood made her jump.

Though, now that she thought about it, Brad had been totally pushing three people out of the common room door, and Emmeline had definitely grabbed Anneliese and Ellie by the arm to pull them up the stairs. Were...were people plotting against them? Nuh uh. No way. Why would they care? It wasn't as if they were dating or anything and the rest of the Houses' lives depending on whether or not she and Elphias kissed or snogged or even held hands and oh God. What if it did? What if everyone in all of Ravenclaw (Phoebe wouldn't even let herself think outside of Ravenclaw tower) was watching and waiting to see what would happen? She knew how gossips worked, she was one of the best so--so---

"Ah, how much--how much stuff from sixth year have you been reviewing for your N.E.W.T.s?" she asked, running a nervous hand through her hair because she needed to ignore the silence that had fallen upon the common room.
