"What? No," he replied as though her suggestion to leave was a stupid one. And at the moment Justin honestly thought it was. Did Melanie honestly think that dumping this in his lap and leaving would solve anything? If anything her leaving now would only irritate him further. Plus, if she left he wouldn't be able to give her his opinion on the matter.
It wasn't that he was angry to the point of yelling. It took a fair amount to get the boy to actually yell. And the fact that this wasn't really a situation where he thought he had the right to do so he refrained. He understood that Melanie had enough trouble sharing this bit of information with him so yelling wouldn't solve anything. But that didn't stop his natural instinct to raise his voice to accommodate the irritation that was pulsing through his body.
"But honestly, Melanie, from where I'm sitting this is a really stupid idea." He offered flat out. "It's like you're asking to be hurt for no other reason than to cling to some childhood friendship that died years ago. Are you telling me he suddenly had a change of heart?"
Justin was greatly aware of Melanie's past with Charles Vaisey. He remembered the trivial tears and the childish cruelty. And on top of that Justin also had his own personal reasons for not liking, or trusting the slytherin prat. But considering this wasn't about him he figured it wouldn't be wise to bring them up. Justin was ultimately more concerned to the damage this little...affair would entice and the unnecessary drama that could be avoided.
