"So Mel, I don't think you got around to telling us who you wanted to go to the ball with?"
It was as if Beth had read her mind. Melissa paused, not sure if she should answer truthfully. If she said she didn't want to go with anybody it would be obvious she was lying... She wouldn't be a normal girl if she didn't have a crush. She had just opened her mouth when Marlene turned to Bethany and pushed her to tell who she wanted to go with. Mel was saved, for now.
"And Mel, don't you dare leave us when the conversation has turned interesting,"
Mel forced herself to smile. If Beth tried to get Mel to spill again, she would have no excuse. With a sigh, she said,"I know, I said I would go later." Yet another yawn escaped her. Yup, Snowbell would be sleeping in the common room tonight.
"Yeah, Beth, who do you like? There must be somebody, I mean, really. Every girl has some sort of a crush." Perhaps if Beth was put on the spot, she would realize how uncomfortable it is and spare poor Melissa. This was not likely to happen at all- Melissa knew from experience that Bethany was not very pleasant in the morning.
