Advice: my character coming to yours for advice
Cal’s attention was fully on the sandwich he had before him. There was a hunger within him that had taken control over his attention span since before Charms. The Great Hall was filled with students coming in and out and really the Head Boy noticed none of them. As he took a large unattractive bite, cheeks puffed out with food, Cal heard his name being called before a small form appeared beside him. He turned to look down at Kizzie, chewing as much as he could but only offering up a nod in greeting.
“So I need your wise old man wisdom.” Cal nearly choked in excitement on his food but swallowed and chugged a large amount of juice before responding.
“How do you handle Desmond?”
Her hands moved in the air as she spoke, “You know...how do you--” Kizzie let out a huff, “He hates me.”
“He’s a little rough around the edges, yea, but I don’t think he hates anyone.”
“He hates me, Callum. Hates. Me.”
“What’d you do?” Her arm went out to poke his cheek that held food and he made a noise as he swatted her away.
“I am a model student, excuse you!”
“I’m just saying there has to be a reason.” He eyed her sideways and continued to eat, “How often are you caught talking in class?” This time Kizzie failed to respond. He nodded his head in thought. “Go to the next Potions Club meeting and when he asks for help with inventory volunteer. He can’t hate someone who willingly helps with his chaotic inventory process.” Kizzie leaned over, placed a kiss on his cheek loudly and trotted off.
He sat up a little straighter and muttered to himself, “Damn right I am,” before biting into his sandwich once more.
