"I think we need to talk," Angelica told Adalita once they had got to the station.

"Ah, okay, if we hurry up I think we'll be able to get our own compartment..." Adalita said, trying to reassure her and then they made their way on the train.

"So what did you want to tell me about?" Adalita said as she shut the door to their private compartment, and sat down.

"You must swear not to tell anyone," Angelica replied, in all seriousness.

Adalita screwed up her face a bit. "I'm your best friend! That's what I'm for!"

"Okay, I- I found Quirrell in the corridor -" she hesitated - "the forbidden corridor."

Adalita's eyes widened and she leaned forward. "What? Why?" she whispered.

"Search me! But when he was about to open a door with strange noises behind it and when I stopped him... he...well, I... hekissedmeandtoldmenottotellanyone," Angelica mumbled, turning brick-red.

"Wait, what?"

"I know!"

"No, no! I didn't understand a word of that last bit of what you said, can you repeat it?"

She sighed. "He kissed me and told me not to tell anyone."

"Who kissed you?" Oliver, who had just opened the door, said with a hint of jealousy.

"Oh perfect!" Angelica exclaimed, throwing her head in her hands.

Oliver looked from Angelica to Adalita and back again. "Maybe I don't want to know..." he said and left.

"That went well." Angelica muttered.

"Well, at least he left, I mean he didn't really find out your secret, right?"
