"i'm always right, even you should have figured that out by now," beth replied with a slight smile. okay, so she wasn't always right, but she was most of the time, at least in her eyes anyway. even when she wasn't right, she could come up with some bitchy comment that would shut the other person up. they wouldn't come up with a comeback, and that meant you'd won the argument in her opinion, and therefore you were right. "that doesn't surprise me in the slightest, it's not like my parents think to tell us anything before they tell everyone else."
that really infuriated her sometimes. she didn't find out that she was going to be a bridesmaid at her mother's brother's wedding until her paternal grandmother asked her what she was going to wear. 'i'm sorry, wear for what?' 'oh, i'm going to be a bridesmaid? since when?' 'three months ago, how lovely.' her mother's response when beth had quizzed her as to why she hadn't yet been informed was simply that she had forgotten. how kind of her.
ssi'm sure i'll be perfectly fine when i tell him that, he's terrified of students you see,ss beth replied, her sarcasm more than obvious. "okay, so maybe we're not all complete snobs, but my parents are. it's been passed on, though admittedly not quite as much." beth rather viewed herself as a bit of a snob, but the thing was she didn't talk to weasleys, only slytherins, and chris just happened to be both.

Am i more then you bargained for yet? [/font][/center] Chris smiled as he noticed the slight smile on Beth's face, a smile suited her, she looked great, but obviously being the sarcastic little bugger she was it wasn't going to be there for long but Chris loved how blunt and sarcastic she was, he wasn't sure why he just kind of liked it. "Oh yes, all hail Bethany Dalton the woman that's always right" he said bowing down to her, he was messing around obviously, she didnt know everything.
"Well when i do stuff thats interesting you'll be the first to know" he said with a smile then added "You'll have to wait a while as i may make my life out to be all exciting and adventurous but it realy isn't" Chris said with a shrug, to be honest he often found himself wondering around as bored as bored could get most of the time.
"Oh Sure you can mock and he'll laugh if you do say it but I'm a force to be reckoned with and your lucky to have me on your side" he said giving her a wink, sure he wasn't exactly as powerful as some of the top wizards but heck he was the kind of guy which would give something his all and he never realy gave up on stuff that he actually cared about. "Beth stop trying to make yourself out to be a snob, your not.. you just have issues getting close to people because your not that close to your parents.." Chris said sounding kind of like a physiatrist, truth was he got most of his knowledge from comic books and it seems like every time some physiatrist was in a comic book the answer was always like 'your not close to your parents'. I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear. But that's just who i am this week. [/font][/size][/center] Wearing: Outfit Comment: Hey Lyrics: Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out Boy Credit: Me

"well it's about time people started hailing me, i don't know why it's taken so long," she replied with a slightly bigger smile than the one she'd shown a few moments ago. smiling wasn't exactly her speciality, in fact it was a rather rare occasion that she did, but that didn't mean she didn't enjoy it. beth loved to laugh, to smile, to be happy, but there was little reason in her life for her to do so. whenever there was something that gave her a reason to be happy, her parents would pull it away without a second thought and beth would be thrown back into a state of misery and distress.
hopefully things were on the up, maybe the man that her parents married her off to wouldn't be that bad after all, maybe he would be her escape plan. there was one thing that was for certain, and that was she wasn't going back home at the end of the year, not a chance. she didn't care if she had to go and live with the malfoys, the notts, hell even the weasleys if she had to. preferably she could get a place in hogsmeade or london or somewhere, but dalton manor was off limits. she was of age now, she didn't have to listen to them anymore. that was the theory anyway, but she doubted things would work out.
"well it's very much appreciated, i might be needing your help at some point along the line and i'll be expecting you there." her parents wouldn't be at all pleased when only seven children arrived home, not that they'd be particularly pleased to see any of them. josh would probably panic, and maybe even the others, but josh knew her train of thought, and she hoped he'd figure it out. "it would seem you know me better than i thought. shame i can't figure these things out for myself."

Am i more then you bargained for yet? [/font][/center] "Well clearly everyone else is a buffoon to not see that you will clearly rule the world one day" he joked his smile growing as hers did, Beth was just a normal girl in his opinion, all those people that saw her as some big scary person were wrong, she seemed to have put her guard down for him slightly, he wasn't sure why she had but he was glad that she had as he liked the Beth people didnt get to see, heck he liked the cocky Beth people got to see as well.
Chris smiled looking at her face "You know, you should smile more often it makes you look amazing" he said honestly then scratched the back of his head "Anyway.. you dont have any idea how your going to not get married do you.., i mean I'm wearing pink and green to Jas's wedding i dont want to have to turn up to yours wearing the same thing" he said, Jas had asked jokingly for him to wear pink and green but he'd decided as a gift to her he would.
"You can have me whenever you want me" Chris said with a smile but a moment later realised he probably could have worded it a bit better so it didnt sound as dirty but Beth was smart she knew what he meant. "Beth you just a girl, your not that hard to work out, and I'm sure you'll figure everything out for yourself sooner or later" I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear. But that's just who i am this week. [/font][/size][/center] Wearing: Outfit Comment: Hey Lyrics: Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out Boy Credit: Me

"you best get spreading the word then." beth knew that she was good, perhaps a little arrogant and self-centered , but it was true. even so, she wasn't good enough to rule the country, let alone the world. how would she even be able to try when she couldn't even rule her own life. sure, it was an interesting prospect, but if there was one thing that she had learnt from history of magic was that no matter what your cause, nobody could take over the world, because there would always be a force to stop you, no matter how small.
"i'll take that as a compliment." beth wasn't used to people saying nice things about her, and that had led to the formation of her outwards personality, among other flaws in her life. "i'm stumped for the time being, but i won't make you wear that, don't worry." pink and green? where the hell had he got that idea from? it sounded like something josh would come up with, but then he'd called it jas' wedding, not josh's.
"i'll hold you to that chris, and marks my words that i will." he knew full well that she wouldn't let it drop, but he wouldn't have said it otherwise, would he? she'd noticed the wording was somewhat strange, but she didn't question it too much, she knew what he meant. "then i'm hoping for sooner, but i doubt things will work out that way."

Am i more then you bargained for yet? [/font][/center] "I already started" Chris joked, he'd actually told people that she was someone to watch out for as he could see her causing a bit of trouble for people but he didnt see her ruling the world, nobody could there would always be a force that would stop you, being a Weasley Chris had heard pretty much every story the family had that was interesting enough, from a holiday in Egypt to the chamber of secrets.
Chris wasn't exactly sure what she meant by 'i'll take that as a compliment'. "It was a compliment" he stated with a smile she looked good smiling it wasnt a lie it was the truth in his opinion. "See you can be kind when you want to be" Chris said smiling at her, she always tried to push people away and she had just proven to him she could at least be nice.
"Im sure you will and i'll be waiting for the day" he said with a nod of his head, he was sure she'd need him one day to do something and he'd be happy to do whatever it was she wanted, he trusted her even if she did seem to be a bit of a bitch to most people. "Well im here for whatever you need me to do, so if i can do anything to help with anything just ask" Chris said, he'd do anything for most of the people in his life and Beth was now one of those people... ok not anything, but most things he would do. I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear. But that's just who i am this week. [/font][/size][/center] Wearing: Outfit Comment: Hey Lyrics: Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out Boy Credit: Me

"and do they pay any attention?" she asked him. his tone told her that he was joking, but she knew that some of her younger siblings and cousins often told any friends that they made to steer clear of beth. she personally found it rather amusing, and would sometimes then 'hunt down' those friends to meet them. some would run away screaming and others would pretend they hadn't noticed her. it generally only worked for those below their fourth year, though the older students did tend to avoid her.
'it was a compliment' what did he expect her to say? she wasn't exactly acquainted with receiving compliments, and so 'i'll take that as a compliment' had seemed a simple enough response. it would seem there was still a lot she had to learn about being nice, in social situations anyway. "the important part being when i want to be, which admittedly isn't very often." maybe beth should have been nicer to people more often, but people would always frown and ask what the hell she was plotting.
"then i'm glad we've come to an agreement," the dalton replied with a smile. she didn't particularly like having other people help her, she saw herself as very independent and rather stubborn person, to which most people agreed, but sometimes that was necessary in order for whatever she hoped to do to be done. beth wasn't the most helpful of people, but she would do what she could for a select few. most of the time it was only a very clear warning to or not to do something with her doing the talking, but it worked. beth would include chris in that rather short list, he was one of the few people she'd managed to get on with at hogwarts. well, more chosen to get on with rather than managed, but all the same.

Am i more then you bargained for yet? [/font][/center] "Does anyone realy pay any attention to anything i say?" he asked her rhetorically with a smirk, sure some people payed attention, but hardly anyone took him seriously, being the son of one of the worlds best practical joker realy makes people be careful around you, and so they should Chris was a force to be reckoned with.. when he's bored anyway.
"Well your nice to me, and for that i thank you" he said putting his hand on his arm, he wasn't exactly sure why he'd done it, it was one of those things that whilst thanking someone he had to make physical contact for some reason, some guys he would pat on the back and for people like Maxi he would hug but others got a simple touch or pat.
"Your not as bad as you make yourself out to be are you realy, your a little angel" he joked with a wink, Beth was far from angel but she was nicer then she made herself out to be, or at least she was nice to him more then everyone else, he wasn't realy sure he just knew she was nicer then people thought she was. I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear. But that's just who i am this week. [/font][/size][/center] Wearing: Outfit Comment: Hey Lyrics: Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out Boy Credit: Me

"me, for the time being anyway, but i can't speak for anyone else." did anyone pay any attention to him? probably not. did anyone pay attention to her? not really, no. the fact that they should had nothing to do with it whatsoever, much to beth's disappointment. "then i guess you're welcome." when she came to think of it, she was being strangely nice. then again, it was very late, and so that would be her excuse if ever she needed to have one.
"i wouldn't go quite as far as to say that, but thanks anyway," beth replied with a smile, which soon turned into a yawn, and she realised just how much her eyes were aching. in short, she was tired, and if she didn't go to bed soon then she'd never wake up in the morning. or later that day. how would she know what time it was? "i'm gonna head back to the common room before i fall asleep here, i don't particularly want to wake up in the corridor." it was a conversation that she'd enjoyed but she was tired. there was always another time to talk.

Am i more then you bargained for yet? [/font][/center] "Well as long as someone as important as you listens to me" he said with a smile, he wasn't sure why he was being so nice, maybe he thought she seemed to be disliked by so many people that being nice to her would be a nice change for her, or maybe he thought she'd make a good friend.. he didnt know, he'd think about it for a while later to see if he could come up with some reason why.
"Well ok.. your a little devil but you have a bit of good in you" he said with a smile, he'd always liked people who were 'naughty' ok naughty was such a childish word but bad, made them sound like they were committing crimes. "I should probably be heading up to bed soon as well" Chris said with a nod, he was getting tired, he wasnt as tired as Beth seemed but he was still tired. "Well it was nice talking to you" he said honestly, it had been one of the best chat's he'd had in a while even if it hadn't exactly been that long. I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear. But that's just who i am this week. [/font][/size][/center] Wearing: Outfit Comment: Hey Lyrics: Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out Boy Credit: Me
