"Aww... I'd love to go to America." Iris nodded in understanding.
"Well, once you've gotten past that boring stage... it all gets great. I promise you that." How she could promise such a thing without any experience... she didn't really know. Iris sounded confident enough, though.
She smiled
, "Yeah, it is. If you ever need help with anything, just come find me." Because, y'know.. that was Iris' job. To be helpful and such.

Fallon gave her friend a caring smile. It was kind of weird for Aaron to be this late. She wondered what had happened. "He'll be all right. It's Aaron. He can probably think of a way to get out of any situation."
She watched as Iris went off to go talk to Professor Lafay. She stared hungrily at the empty plates in front of her, hoping to eat soon.

OOC=Lets just pretend this is before Aaron turned up. XD
Iris giggled at Fallon, then looked at her with a very serious look.
"Of course they are....n't." Hehe... They could be though. "I can't wait 'til later, then." Iris said, happily whilst tapping her fingers against the table.
She sighed, and smiled back. Those kind of caring smiles didn't really help Iris. They made her feel like the person smiling was pitying her.
"Yeah... I guess you're right." Quote:

"I'm glad I got out too!" He said in sarcastic agreement. And then that made him think. Where do they keep the Hogwarts express...? Well, that wasn't important right now. "I don't knowr. She pulled from the hallway of the train as I pushed on the inside of the bathroom. And once it was open, she skipped off. Probably to catch up with her friends."
Aaron felt bad. he never got to thank the girl...
At least Iris had the decency to laugh at Aaron's.... um... clumsiness? Accident Prone! Probably not a good trait for a Quidditch Captain, he realized. "Yeah, it is good." Aaron felt Iris hand and took a hold of hers. He smiled before looking at the person Iris was talking to.

Iris sat and listened to Aaron and Satine talk, giggling at the fact that Aaron seemed outraged at how Satine didn't laugh at his misfortune. As he asked a pretty good question, Iris looked up.
"Maybe they keep it in ... Um ... Actually, you're right. Where do they keep the Express?" How had none of them thought of that question before? Surely it didn't just get left somewhere all year.
As Aaron went on to explain that the kid had ran off, Iris shrugged and smiled at him.
"I'm sure you'll bump into her again some point."
Iris looked down at their hands, with a teensy smile on her face. It was so weird to think that it's nearly four years since
that day down in the Pumpkin Patch. Where had all of that time gone, really?
When Aaron spoke to Zoey, Iris realised that she'd not introduced Zoey to anyone. Gah!

"Hello. Aaron Anderson, pleasure to meet ya!" He said with a grin.

Pffft, however, Mr. Boyfriend locked himself in the bathroom and that was something to giggle at. And do you want to take a guess at who started giggling? ... Mhmm, yup. Zoey did!
She stuffed her sleeve back in her mouth long enough to calm down at least a little bit. Heh. He got stuck in the bathroom.
"Whatever, I don't believe you. You're definitely laughing at SOMETHING." Iris laughed and shook her head.... There really wasn't anything that hilarious about her and Aaron, but Zoey apparently thought so. Laughing was good for you, anyway.
Iris looked at Zoey and rolled her eyes.
"Honestly... When you've finished your giggling.... This is Aaron. Aaron, this is Zoey. She's new."
Woohoo! Introductions
done.

"encourage" them to do their best" the slightly evil grin was still planted on her face. "And.. Well we have a lot of the highest earners in this house anyway. I'm certainly going to try as hard as I did last term" she stated.
"Thanks" her eyes drifted down to her bangle once again. Why did he have to make her such a pretty gift? *Pout*
The Blonde couldn't help but laugh at her plans. Break in and permanently stick it? That would be just brilliant. "Well good luck with that one then" she smirked at the idea. "But if you really DID do it.. Your a genius" she giggled a little before returning to the other conversations she was making.
Iris blinked a couple of times, then laughed at Trixie's reply.
"Oh... I don't doubt that for a minute..." Trixie's evil grin was actually very scary.
"Can I help you with that encouragement?" Iris asked, jokingly. (Or was she? ... hehe.) Nodding in agreement, Iris grinned.
"Yeah. We're pretty lucky with that... Imagine if all of those high earners were Gryffindors? Slytherin... would be doomed." DON'T SAY THAT IRIS! They wouldn't be!
Watching Trixie as she looked at her bracelet, Iris simply smiled, and let her attention wander elsewhere. Like the ceiling... Pretty, magical ceiling.
"Trust me, I will do it." Iris nodded, seriously. She wasn't sure how she'd do it.... but Iris Beaumont would do that.
