him as to why he was acting this way. Actually it didn’t confuse him, he knew why he was acting this way he just didn’t want to admit it to himself. He held the door open for her, "Your door my lady." He said sweetly as she passed by. Once she passed him she rewarded him with the sweetest smile he had ever seen.
He noticed that they were both extremely quiet and it was a bit awkward. "Any siblings?" he had asked her even though he already knew the answer he was just trying to start up a conversation not wanting to talk about anything that dealt with school.
"Nope, I'm an only child. What about you?"
"Uh yeah, only child back home," he said . He looked at the portraits as they passed, not sure how to answer that question. "I just hope that Jack is asleep," he said in an almost jokingly fashion.
"Oh I'm pretty sure he is. What time is it?" She asked as she looked at her watch, " Yeah, he is either asleep or out partying."
He smiled and laughed at the thought of a professor out partying. "I' m not sure I want to see that."
Olivia shook her head, "Nope, you don't. I have seen way to many professors party. And let me tell you, it isn't a pretty sight." She tried not to laugh but failed.
"Wow Olivia, just where do you live? Or secondly, I'm not sure I want to know. You can party with the professors all you want and I'll keep..." he stopped to think, "I'll keep reading my books."
She giggled, "They would be at my parents work parties that I was dragged to. I didn't like it one bit." She smiled slightly, "Those were the times I wished I had boo ks that I could bring with me.”
"Ah, my father tries to drag me to his conven..." he stopped short of saying conventions, "...meetings. His meetings are somewhat interesting, but I don't really like to attend them. I always tell him that I have summer work to complete."
"I should have thought about that. I might have to use that sometime this summer. Hopefully it will help me... at least I hope it does."
All of a sudden she hears a noise and grabs Nate’s hand without thinking. Not hearing the noise himself he glances over at Olivia with a raised eyebrow suspiciously, "You OK?"
"What?" She looked down and saw what she had done and jerk ed her hand away feeling stupid, "Yeah, just thought I heard something. I'm sorry."
Olivia tried to walk ahead of him a bit feeling like a complete idiot, but he caught up to her and took hold of her hand once again. "Then we best stick together," he said with a slight nod and pulled her down a more secluded hallway, taking another way toward the kitchen.
She looked at him and looked at them holding hands, " Well I guess we should." She smiled and looked around, "Where are we going?"
"The kitchens... cookies and milk... late night snack? Remember?" Nate smiled over at her and she looked up at him and smiled big.
"Yes , I remember. I just don't know this way."
"It's a way I learned awhile back when Jace was torturing the Rosewoods. They were not walking in the corridors, but rather running, so he took the whole lot of them and made them walk the halls fifteen times over until they knew what the proper procedure was, it tied up the kitchen and dining hall so I had to find another route.”
"Oh wow, that's very interesting. Glad I wa sn't in Rosewood," she laughed.
Nate smiled and looked down at her once again hating to talk about the horrible lingering feeling of summer approaching, "You have to write me the first chance you get once you hear back from colleges. You know that, right?"
She looked down at the ground as they were walking, "I wouldn't dream of not writing you Nate, and you better do the same." Olivia smiled and held his hand a little lighter. “How do you think you will do on your end of year exams?”
He walked slightly closer to her until he could bend down just slightly to whisper, "Perfect scores, all subjects." he nodded. "I already know," and he shook his head, realizing how arrogant he sounded. "At least, that's the
