School was weird.

This opinion was, of course, shared by many, but… oy. School was incredibly weird. Ben Connelly didn’t like it in the first place, but all this… giddiness made his stomach hurt a little. So what if he and Merlin collapsed into a fit of giggles two nights ago? So what if Ben… so what if Ben smiled once or twice in the hallways? It was shameful, that’s what it was.

So, he took his angriest, most depressing book from his shelf and decided he’d sit outside and smoke.

Lovely plan, Ben.

Turning to pack thirty-two, Ben looked up idly as he lifted his cigarette to his lips. Ah, girl. Girl with book and cigarette. Girl with r-

… wait.

Ben’s eyes slowly traveled to his own book, fingers slowly taking the cigarette from his lips.

…

School was weird.

School was impossible, that's what Camdyn had decided. It forced her to spend time in a cold and musty castle, when she'd rather be outdoors in a much warmer climate. It placed her in a house with a scowly, arse of a bloke who she couldn't stop staring at these days. It presented her with the opportunity to sit in courtyards with cigarettes she did not smoke and a book she probably wasn't going to read.

Hogwarts was weird, but Cam could occasionally use that to her advantage.

She had been bored. Problem solved.

She smushed the cigarette into the ground with her foot, pretending she'd finished it off. After taking a moment or two to skim over a paragraph of her book, she lifted her eyes to stare at Ben and slowly curved her lips into a smile.

"Have any chocolate to spare? I seem to be out. I wouldn't be asking, but... chocolate helps the concentration," she voiced, hesitantly standing up from her spot on the bench.

“Uhh…” Ben stammered, narrowing his eyes a little in confusion. He wasn’t insane, was he? He wasn’t… talking to himself? Her, himself as a girl? No… no way.

“Uh, yeah, actually,” he mended a moment later, shaking his head and laughing slightly under his breath. He pulled a broken bar of muggle chocolate from the pocket on his uniform shirt, offering it to the girl.

And then, realizing he had a puzzled half-smile on his face, Ben’s eyes went a bit wide. He scowled. Much better.

Camdyn tried to wait patiently for him to respond. Perhaps he was one of the silent, but knowledgeable types who had every face in the castle memorized and realised that she wasn't actually a seventh year student. She wasn't wearing anything that would give away what house she was in! Ugh, thinking of houses only made her think of Slytherin which only... bugger
