Iris looked at the younger student, "Oh... well that's okay, they were fantastic!" The Head Girl grinned.
"May I?" She asked, reaching out for the box of cookies.
They look AWESOME. They taste even better. They were cookies made of WIN.
Omnomnomnom. Nice, awesome, fantastic cookies....

It was a funny thing that. He remembered not wanting to come in the first place. He wasn't too much of a grouch about it when he was actually on the platform, about to start his first year at Hogwarts but he had thrown a fit when his parents first told him.
He had liked being home-schooled, liked lazing around and wreaking havoc upon his neighbourhood and couldn't understand why he had to leave if he was doing perfectly fine studying at home. His parents had convinced him soon enough though. And now Jimbo couldn't even imagine what it would have been like if he had stayed. He couldn't imagine a life without having come to Hogwarts, without having met Iris Beaumont, without the vast playground that was the castle and it's grounds.
And he still didn't even know what he was going to do after Hogwarts. He was heading into his NEWT year and he didn't have a clue what he meant to do with whatever NEWTs he might earn. The thought of being thrust out into the daily life of a working adult was frightening - how was he supposed to get on if he had no clue what he was doing?
Still contemplating all these things he walked into the Great Hall completely immersed in his thoughts and he sat down at his respective table, staring at nothing and not even bothering to find anyone that he might know. He didn't really fancy much of a chat at the moment.
Iris's attention was dragged away from Kurumi and her cookies when she saw a familiar blondey make his way into the Great Hall.
JIMBO!!
Finally! One of three best friends have ARRIVED. But... Jimbo looked terrible. Sad and miserable. That wasn't good. Iris didn't like seeing her friends look like that.
Taking a couple of Kurumi's cookies, Iris smiled at the girl and made a beeline for the boy. The blonde girl ruffled Jimbo's hair as she sat down next to him, Iris smiled at him. He looked more miserable up close than he did from a distance. Iris frowned. Then, looking down at the two cookies in her hand Iris offered one of them to her best friend, with a small smile too.

Hogwarts and Beauxbatons were different in many ways, though the gathering hall was much less of an eyesore than her previous school's.
The Head Girl eyed this new kid.
"You think it's confusing? ... Well, you'll get used to it all soon enough." She nodded, and fiddled with the fork in front of her.
"Though, I'll tell you this... You've landed yourself into Hogwarts' best House. So, welcome to Slytherin." Iris hoped the girl didn't question that statement. Iris didn't need to back it up with evidence, but she would if she needed to.
"I'm Iris, by the way. Prefect and Head Girl."

"Common room parties?" Hugo chuckled.
"I don't know but I've never seen such things in the common room," he said.
"But maybe I was in the library when that happened..." Balance. Chyeah.
"What, will he explode?" Hugo giggled. Like a whale on a beach.
"Well, she is a Gryffindor," he said. He didn't know much more about her. She looked like Fee though
"Of course! Where HAVE you been to not know about these when I do! ... Unless they were all from before you started at Hogwarts. Which is unlikely. But possible. Iris, shut up rambling." Iris grinned and rolled her eyes. The boy needed to get out of the library some more.
Iris nodded.
"Well, I'm supposing he might. Which is why I don't want to be close by!" Hehehe. But in all seriousness, Iris was not looking forward to DADA this term.
"Yes. Appropriately placed too, it seems." Quote:

Iris grinned, and looked down at the table for a moment.
"Well... I suppose so." Hehe.
As Fee asked how long her and Aaron had been together, Iris shook her head.
"No, no... It's fine to ask. It's not like it's something personal. Ahh. Geez. Lemme think..." The blonde started to count on her fingers, as if filing through her memories.
"Well... Everything started out in our second year, on my birthday. The romance, I mean. But we didn't become a 'proper' couple until just before the end of our third year." And if you counted backwards, that made...
So... Officially, three years... but I count it as four and a half, because that's when everything started." Iris smiled, fondly. They were a fantastic four and a half years. Well, for the most part. Last year wasn't so good... They'd nearly allowed themselves to drift apart. Stupid Quiddtich; Stupid Prefecting...
"It's a pretty long time, I know. But I don't want to put an end to it any time soon... or far, really.

Nodding confidentally at her question that obviously expected an unsure answer, it was his turn to scoff this time. So she was so AH-MAZING that she was the both? Well, he didn't buy it.
"Still, though, you are more of a Head Girl. And I AM the prefect." Got any problems? Good. Jealous, maybe? Nope, never. He was already better than her.
Iris held back the urge to roll her eyes. He KNEW she was right. EVERYONE who starts a sentence with the word "Still" knows that they just got told. Ha!
... God. Iris was so immature when it came to Evan. And it wasn't even the good kind of immature, like with Jimbo. But it wasn't her fault that the boy managed to hit all her nerves, multiple times.
"Obviously the Head Girl title is more important. But that is school-wide. Within Slytherin, I'm Prefect." Well, Lafay hadn't worded it like that, but it's how Iris saw the whole situation. It kept her equal to Evan in the Common Room, that way. See. She wasn't trying to up do him by having two badges. It was for equality and ... stuff.
"Yes, you're the prefect. You're the male prefect." She'd tried last year, but letting go of their past just wasn't going to happen, was it? Being bitter towards each other was apparently more fun than being polite to each other.
