"I wouldn't exactly call it lying." Eric smirked as the said strike one, uh oh strike one, what's she getting at? "Well, being full of yourself is never always a bad thing, is it?" Eric grinned. Her laughter just made him smile, she had a cute laugh. When she said three strikes, you're out, he knew what she meant, he had one more chance, so better not screw this up. He watched as she made herself comfortable, and he reached for an orange, beginning to peel it slowly, while he watched her a little bit more.

Watson chose to ignore his questions, being they were pretty much ritorical. She felt him looking at her, and she decided to bask in it quietly while it lasted.
She turned to him, meeting his eyes, and staring into them. "So, hot stuff," she teased, "tell me a little bit about yourself." She was curious about him. She wanted to know things about him. Well, more than the fact that he was an ego-centric, very good looking, ass. She chuckled to herself at her private thoughts, thankful he couldn't hear her.

As Watson met his eyes, he couldn't stop telling himself over and over again how beautiful they were. When she asked about himself, he kinda smirked, he loved getting chances to talk about himself, and show himself in a good light, but he was on his third chance, and he didn't exactly know if this girl was the type who hated self centered guys, she didn't seem to mind so far. Eh, I shouldn't take a risk this time, he told himself. Shrugging he said, "I'm just a normal fifth year Slytherin guy. Only child, no siblings, but I do have three cousins. Two are girls, who are like my little sisters, my other... well let's just say he's a loser." Eric said with a scowl, his eyes gazing towards the Ravenclaw Table, curious if Mike might be over there. "But enough about me, it's you I'm more interested in hearing about." he said with a grin.

"Well, I'm a first year. I live with my big brother Will. He works for the Minestry. My parents died when I was really little while on special mission for the Minister. I'm from a pureblood family. We've all been in Slytherin since Hogwarts was created," Watson told him, feeling like she had a big mouth. She considered mentioning the fact that she was a Parselmouth, but she thought better of it. That fact, along with the basilisk scales in her wand, tended to scare alot of people away. She didn't want him thinking she was a future dark wizard. Of course she wasn't, although all the evidence said her family would be. But, for some odd reason, her family was one of the most loyal wizarding families around and had spent an eternity fighting off the evil.

"Ahh... a Ministry family, eh?" Eric said, his interest sparked a bit. "My Uncle works for the Auror Office... my... cousin is hoping to get a job there when he graduates. Meaning I'll be all alone in Hogwarts, finally." Eric explained, with a smirk. Hearing about her parents he added, "I'm sorry to hear that." He couldn't imagine losing his own parents, the thought terrified him a bit, but clearing his head of these thoughts he said, "I'm Pureblood as well. My parents were Slytherins, but my Aunt, uncle, and cousin are Ravenclaws." he said with a scowl, again gazing at the Ravenclaw table in disgust.

Watson had always been taught to accept people from other houses, but she knew that it would be a disgrace to her family if anybody was ever sorted into a house other than Slytherin. Her family was about long-standing tradition that had never and would never be broken. They were a family of power and poise in the wizarding community, and she had grown up being taught to live up to those expectations and handle the power with great care. She was young, but she had understood for years that with great power, comes great responsibility and great danger, It didn't scare her though; not in the least. She was proud of her heritage. Proud of her family names. She would never disgrace her family, especially her parents.
"Well, with a ministry family I'll probably carry on the tradition," she told him. "What about you? What do you want to do?"

"What about you? What do you want to do?
The question puzzled him for a moment, what did he really want to do when he was older? He never thought about it, "I'm not sure." he said with a shrug. "Maybe I'll join the Ministry, any job there would be awesome, along as it's not in the Auror Office, with my loser of a cousin." Eric said smirking, he stretched his arms a bit. Then he resumed his gazing in to her eyes.

"What are you staring at?"
It wasn't exactly that his constant staring bothered her, but she was curious what he found so entirely interesting about her.

"Nothing" Eric said quickly, turning his head away, gazing at her eyes kept making him think of nothing but her, it didn't occur to him how odd it might seem. He reached for another apple to give himself something to do to try to excuse his whole habit of staring in to her eyes. Taking a few bites, chewing slowly, then swallowing, he came up with something to carry on conversation. "What office in the Ministry are you thinking about joining?"

"What office in the Ministry are you thinking about joining?"
"Oh, I'm not sure yet," she giggled girlishly. "Maybe the Department of Mysteries. Definantly something interesting and suspenseful. Will is the Junior Assistant to the Minister. My dad was his Advisor and an Auror before that. My mum was a Hit Wizard. Will wants me to follow in his and Dad's footsteps and work directly for the Minister, but I'm not sure if that is what I want."
