That would get everyone's attention in the middle of the library. Great. That way Frida could be even more of an embarrassment to her own family than she already was. But if she thought standing up made her any more intimidating, she was in for a real shock.
In one fluid movement, Kristoffer got up too, rather wishing he'd had time to kick her under the table but not about to give up, never mind her arguments. He raised a pointed eyebrow at her, making sure she wasn't going to bound out of reach like a frightened rabbit.
"You think arguing with me is going to help you?" Kristoffer countered, in a dangerously low tone. What was she so afraid of? What was it, her diary? (Girls did get weirdly worked up about their diaries. He'd learned that from Seneca a long time ago.) "Give it to me, Frida," he muttered through gritted teeth, digging his heel of his foot onto her toes in an added threat. He may not be able to take points from her now that she was a prefect, but that didn't mean he couldn't make her life miserable in plenty of other ways. If he wanted the damn book, he would get it.
