Emelia felt kind of offended, she wasn't boring at least she didn't think she was. Emelia liked to think she could loosen up once in a while and have fun and she felt like she did, that didn't reflect in the way she had been talking to Chris like. Well if I already sound like a boring person might just continue doing this. Emelia didn't want to get into another argument and why should she care what some Slytherin thought of her? 'Nope, don't know how to have fun and haven't felt that way.'She hoped her voice didn't have sarcasm in it. At least thats what I'm trying to convince you. She added in her head, all of a sudden she wanted to get out of here, just retire to her books and friends. Emelia didn't like long conversations she'd rather be her, 'boring' self and act like a good Ravenclaw should.Emelia felt like she should just walk away and have some fun just to prove him wrong. She felt like she wanted to just blend in and do her own thing, blending in and staying out of peoples way who think they were bigger then she was.

Chris just shook his head as she spoke, she was completely.. wrong. "you need to.. shake it up" he said with a smirk walking to her side so he could get a better look at her. she deffinetly had looks under her nerdy disguise. He walked towards her and gently put his hands on her shoulders pushing them back slightly so she was standing up a bit more straight. "better" he said with a nod then added "If you put some make up on and some decent clothes you could own every boy in this place" he may have been slightly exaggerating.
"When im done you'll no longer be a nerd but you'll be.. well.. hot" he said with a smirk but he knew what she was going to say so he quickly beat her to the point "Im a slytherin, a snake, snakes dont have ears so i wont listen to you if you say you want to blend in and be invisible to just read somewere" [/size]

Emelia just stood there listening to what Chris wanted to say, she'd wait till he was finished with everything thats when she would make her escape. At least thats what she was planning, she didn't want to change , why would she have to. She didn't need to have fun it wasn't like she'd die without it. She shook her head, she knew she wasn't that bad looking but Emelia could tell Chris was exaggerating when he told her she could own this place. She knew this as well as Chris did and it didn't bother her. Any why should she listen to a Slytherin, didn't they just help themselves and no one else? Emelia couldn't wrap her head around it, shouldn't Chris be doing something to benefit himself and if he was she couldn't figure out what it was.
When he was finished with his little speech Emelia completely ignored the last part of it. 'I don't care what you think and I don't want to change so just go get o with your life I'll do the same with mine.' She really meant what she was saying whats the point of her changing herself when she knew she would keep the change? It wasn't like she wanted to be noticed, blending in was a thing she was good at and if she wasn't able to do that what was left? Sure she was pretty clever but that didn't mean anything, all the Ravenclaw were pretty clever.

Chris could tell she wasnt having any of it..he didnt want her to become some prankster or some bad girl he just wanted her to know what it was like to live a little. He wasnt even sure why he wanted her to live a little, maybe because a part of him realised that being boring didnt get you in a relationship and that maybe Em would end up alone, he honestly wasnt sure but he wanted to help her stop with her boring life and live like he did.
"Ok say im doing all this for nothing, a few years down the line.. you'll have a boring job.. i can see you being library, you'll go to an apartment where the only person waiting for you will be some pet, you'll have a meal for one alone and then head off to bed.." chris said making this up as he goes along "Then that'll happen over and over untill you retire where you'll just sit inside reading untill you die.. do you want that to be your life?" Chris asked honestly, because the way he saw it that was the life she was headed for. [/size]

Emelia didn't know what to say. The fists thing that had popped into her mind was that she would get a much better job then being working in a library. Surely with all the work she had put in her studies she could do better then that. After a second of pondering the facts she decided that it was possible that it could happen but she didn't want to admit that to him. 'I don't like cats so I wouldn't have one.' That was a lie she adored little furry animals but she wouldn't wan to have one, something about them sounded unappealing. The cat hair everywhere, scratches everywhere. Stroking a friends cat yes, owning her own no.
Emelia liked to think that she would have a great future and find a guy she could fall in love whit and live happily ever after. Although she also knew that things like that didn't happen in the real world and usually the real world wasn't merciful. Hm maybe I will try the having fun thing but he doesn't need to know that he was right it would go right to his head. Thought Emelia she didn't like admitting that she was wrong and she never did admit it and she wasn't going to start.

Chris smirked as she said she didn't like cats, he knew he had got her there and that was the only thing she could come up with. "Well cats scare the living hell out of me" Chris said honestly still kind of sticking with his truthfully thing. although he had already decided lying was much better and easier. Chris could imagine how Emelia thought her future would unfold but Chris felt he had a better grasp on reality as he knew what his future was going to be, he was going to go work for his dad until he could find a job that got him more money and he would keep looking for better jobs until he had a job that meant he could go live out in the countryside in a big house or something luxurious like that.
"Let me guess you think your life is going to be like this, You'll leave Hogwarts, get a great job, meet a guy you'll fall in love with as soon as you see him and he'll fall in love with you at the same time, you'll both get married have kids and then you'll spend the rest of your lives in some house after making your mark on the world" Chris said shaking his head slightly, that wasn't realistic, Chris didn't really believe in love at first sight, it was more of a you saw them, got to know them, got to like them then you got to love them.

Emelia was beginning to getting annoyed, this person knew nothing about her and yet she felt like some of the things he said about her were true. It wasn't that she believed that her life would plan out like he said, it was that she wanted it to go that way. It wouldn't be as dangerous as doing something reckless and then ruining your life just because you wanted to experience somethings. Anyway if she hadn't had a chance to experience them then she wouldn't know what she was missing. At the same time Emelia knew that as soon as she got out of Hogwarts her life wouldn't be so safe. There would be times where there was no safe choice and then she wouldn't know what to do.
'OK, lets say that I did think that my life planned out like that. Why do you want to know? It's not like you can do anything about it. And for the recored I didn't think that my life would be like that, there are no happily eve afters and not everything plays out like in the movies.' Emelia wasn't sure if she was saying the truth, she hadn't figured out what she wanted to do with her life yet but she was sure that some of her fantasies would have played out like that. Emelia wanted to storm of and leave Chris just standing there but the want to know his answer to her question was stronger.

Chris smirked slightly he knew he was getting to her and she was getting annoyed but she wasn't leaving because she was curious, he knew that this curiosity would probably stop her being such a bore and start living a little. Chris stood there listening to what she had to say with a smirk on his face, she was trying so hard to not let him win, win what he wasn't sure but he was winning it anyway.
"Well i want to know because your the future, you, the rest of the ravenclaws, some hufflepuffs and Gryffindors.. your all gonna make your mark on the world and achieve something, but your all blinded" Chris said truthfully, not revealing everything though, he never did reveal the entire story he found things were better when there were surprises and secrets involved. "The real question is why haven't you left already?" Chris asked with a smirk knowing she couldn't give him a decent answer. [/size]

Emelia was getting beyond annoyed, why did he have to answer most of her questions in other questions. Why couldn't he just give her a straight forward answer and let he be on her way, although it wasn't like he was stopping her from going. Emelia knew that she was being stubborn and that it wouldn't be a bad thing to let him know what she though it also wouldn't be any use to her would it? Emelia didn't like Chris, he was everything she though to be a jerk. With that though she turned around and started walking away form him. She knew she wasn't going to get any answers so why she she even wait for them, it would be stupid and Emelia defiantly wasn't stupid.
Emelia stopped a little way away and turned toward Chris. 'You know what I should of gone a long time ago!' Emelia wasn't someone who would let her anger show but this was different, she was annoyed and angry. She hadn't gotten the answers she had wanted and that made her even more angry. She turned back and walked away. As soon as she had done this she knew she was giving up, but oh well she wasn't one to do give up. Maybe his little speech had effected her some way. She didn't care at that moment.
