Scene: Hallway near the library, afternoon.

Theodore is leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. As soon as Megan appears, he looks her up and down, with a half-smile that isn't at all friendly.

Theodore:
Oh, are you done with your “deep academic conversation” with Diggory?

Megan:
(raises an eyebrow) Excuse me?

Theodore:
Come on, Megan. Don't take me for an idiot. I saw you laughing with him like you were on a date, not doing some damn homework.

Megan:
We were just talking about Charms! He asked me for help with the duplication spell, that's all.

Theodore:
Of course. Because obviously there's no other student at Hogwarts who knows how to duplicate a quill. It had to be you, didn't it?

Megan:
Are you jealous? Really?

Theodore:
No. I'm fed up. Fed up with watching other guys find excuses to talk to you, and you... you pretend you don't notice.

Megan:
Because there's nothing to notice. Cedric is kind, period.

Theodore:
(smiles ironically) Yeah, sure. Friendly. Like when he looks at you like you're a piece of candy he wants to steal from the prefect.

Megan sighs, crossing her arms.

Megan:
Theo, I'm not going to stop talking to people because you get paranoid every time someone breathes near me.

Theodore:
Paranoid. Perfect. Now I'm the crazy boyfriend. But you know what? I'd rather be that than stand idly by and watch others cling to your attention like hungry morons.

Physical description (inspired by the image):
Theodore has the kind of reserved beauty that intimidates more than it attracts at first glance. His dark brown hair is slightly wavy, falling carelessly but perfectly calculated over his forehead. His deep-set, expressive eyes seem to contain everything he doesn't say with words. He has a strong jaw and an almost permanent serious expression, as if he's always assessing others. He usually wears his uniform with a carefree, though never disheveled, air; his Slytherin tie is hung as if he doesn't care, but always in {{user}} .
