Oh, I know that. Grell is less perceptive, is all.

[ She shoots them both a devious little smile. ]

[untodeath]

[ She scoffs! ] Alright, alright--

[ Grell grabs a dinner roll to toss at her! ]

Enough teasing already, you little minx♥

[death_glare]

[ William instinctively ducks to avoid the roll. ]

Why don't the two of you go flirt elsewhere. I would like to finish my meal before the next class starts.

[spiderlilies]

[ Of course, they couldn't let William go that easily - but they did offer him some space to finish up his meal while they chatted away.

Come curfew, Ann slipped Grell one of the potions - and from there, it was simple; she was to follow her companion into the dorms once granted access, and hide in the bathrooms until the girl could talk her bunk mates into loaning her the room alone for some 'private study'. With a fair share of giggles and winks, they were convinced to move to the common room. While Grell safely moved into Angelina's bunk, the other redhead made her way to William's dorm - softly rapping at the door frame. ]

William? Are you still willing to go over that arithmancy formula with me?

[death_glare]

[ Of course Ann gets a suspicious frown when she calls to him. If the events of the day were any hint at all arithmancy tutoring was far from what she actually had planned. The few other boys in the room apparently caught the flirtatious tone to Ann's voice and edge William on to joining her. ]

If I must.

[ Dare he say he'd rather join the two redheads than have to listen to his bunkmates tease him! ]

[spiderlilies]

Wonderful.

[ Playfully quirking her brow at his bunkmates, Ann turns to leave him following after her. ]

I'm surprised you're playing along so nicely. [ She exchanges with him quietly, once finally catching up. ]

[death_glare]

I will turn back around if you're going to tease me, as well.

[ Yet he continues to follow along, down one of the lengthy dungeon corridors towards the girl's dorms. ]

[spiderlilies]

Relax, dear. I mean you no harm. You have to ask nicely for that.

[ Shooting him a wink, she otherwise keeps her eyes on the corridors around them, should anyone come along that might lead to trouble. Thankfully, the travel goes smoothly, and upon opening the door and urging William to slip inside first, he'll find Grell sitting on one of the bunks, legs crossed with a book settled atop them. ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell's straightens up with eyes alight, clearly just as surprised that William came. ]

You made it~♥ [ Snapping the book closed, she slides it beneath the pillow beside her, and excitedly swings her legs out to stand! ]

[death_glare]

[ Of course, he's not at all surprised with who's waiting for them. ]

Kkeep your voice down. [ Though his own is arguably just as loud as he reprimands her. ] I could already get in trouble for being in the girl's dorm. It will be even worse if you're discovered.

[spiderlilies]

Now, behave, both of you. [ She states with a wag of the finger, before outreaching to take Grell's hands and kiss her cheek. ] What a good girl, waiting so long.

[untodeath]

[ Grell's cheeks color rose as she croons beneath her breath. ]

I'd wait forever, my darling. [ Peeking back over to Will, her shoulders raise with a giggle. ]

Come on, then! Come get comfortable~ [ She and Ann both wave him over. ]

[death_glare]

[ There's the slightest huff as William watches the intimate exchange between the two ladies - hopefully quiet enough that they didn't hear! ]

Are you certain you two aren't satisfied with one another?

[spiderlilies]

I'm beginning to think there's a bit of jealousy in you, William.

[ With a coy little smile, Ann briefly leaves Grell's side, to extend her hand to the young man. ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell gasps wonderously! ]

Flirting, and now, jealousy~? Who are you?

[ Swaying back, she plops back down onto the bunk, legs swaying and a grin on her face. ]

I dare say, you could do something about it. [ Wink! ]

[death_glare]

[ Knowing full well that any denial of their claims would be an obvious lie he gives in and walks towards the bed, not bothering to take Ann's hand. ]

What exactly are you expecting to happen tonight?

[spiderlilies]

[ Upon denial, Ann rests her empty hand over her chest, turning on her heel to shoot Grell a playfully exaggerated look of abandonment, mouth agape!

And then, she's following behind to take a seat at the opposite side of Grell, folding her legs up by her side. ]

Well, you made it very clear that you don't wish to be pushed out of your comfort zone without your consent, so why don't you tell us what you have in mind?

[untodeath]

[ Grell quirks one of her upturned brows with a chuckle. ]

Oh, I don't know if Will is one to share, but perhaps he can lead♥.

[ Reaching behind her lady, she takes up that book she slid away. ]

So what do you think, then? A cuddle? A snog? Or, perhaps an alternate source of recreation? [ Holding up her prize, it seems that they've gotten their hands onto a forbidden magic book! ]

[death_glare]

[ William takes the spot on Grell's opposite side. As he's just about to voice his opinion on the choices offered - perhaps even to consent to one! - he reads the title of Grell's book. ]

Where did you steal that from?

[ He asks with a scolding tone. How many different ways can these two break the rules in one night! ]

[untodeath]

[ Grell shrugs without a care in the world-- grinning, even! ]

I traded for it, actually. It was totally fair.

[ Humming, she flops it onto the bed behind her. ]

It isn't right to keep that sort of information from us, anyway. How are we to survive in the real world if we don't know the magnitude of what's out there?

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann shoots her a look. ]

And you like it because it's naughty, besides. We know.

[ Closing her eyes, she shrugs. ]

It is quite exhilarating.

[death_glare]

[ He eyes Grell, unsure that he believes her claim. ]

I won't be doing any forbidden magic, if that's your choice for the evening. We're treading a fine enough line already.

[ He pauses, adjusting his glasses as he makes his final decision on whether or not this is a horrible idea. ]

Ruling that out, I would say cuddling is much preferable to snogging, at this point.

[spiderlilies]

Then a right good cuddle it is.

[ Righting herself to stand, Ann pushes Grell over onto her side to collapse against the pillow, before crawling over her to the side closest to the wall. All giggles, she snuggles down to rest her head at the other's shoulder, one leg slung over hers. ]

[untodeath]

[ Clamping a hand over her mouth, Grell muffles her own surprised squeal, dissolving into giggles. Resting her arm beneath Ann's waist, she gives her forehead a little smooch-- before looking to William with an outstretched arm. ]

Come on♥

[death_glare]

[ Once more, his brow furrows at the sight of them. But he agreed to this, so he takes a moment to remove his shoes before taking the spot at Grell's back.

However, he's not quite cuddling. Or even touching Grell, at all. Instead he's on his back, hands resting at his sides as he stares up at the ceiling. ]
