He didn't care how saw he was to be leaving Hogwarts, he wasn't about to let everyone's last memories of him here be marred by images of him with tears rolling down his cheeks and snot smeared all over his face.
Nope, not cool.
"Yep, I got to move on I suppose." he said leaning back against the table, legs spread out the opposite side of the bench, rather than facing the table. "But I'll be around Diagon Alley and you can always owl me." Because of couse she was going to miss him dreadfully.
Gross. Gross was a good adjective for what all of this was.
Disgusting was also a very nice word to describe it all.
"Yea..." she mused.
"Maybe they should all walk with mirrors in front of them so they could see." Evelyn would personally hold a mirror up for them so they could know what they look like. Who would want to be like that in
public? "You can bet on an owl or two." Crossing her arms on the table top, she nodded slowly, smirking.
"Quite frankly, I'm jealous that you're leaving." Really really.
"No more school, homework, exams, professors, rules..." SPOILER!!: what is thiiiis? Proposal? Teehee

He looked at Iris, sitting there, watching him. He took both of her hands, feeling her warmth, and trying to send all he wanted to say to her..... But it wasn't working.
"Iris..." the boy began. "You have been my best friend my entire life." Off to a good start... "We met back in Diagon Alley 8 years ago, before our first summer at Hogwarts, and my life has been different ever since. You were always the woman I loved, and I couldn't imagine my life without you." Aaron's heart was pumping a thousand times a minute as all his words poured out of his mouth. Oh god, he had to continue, didn't he?
He took a step closer. "I love you more than words can describe... And I know we will always be together." And suddenly time stopped for Aaron. He recalled all the times in his life where he was his happiest. And they always were with Iris. From being introduced to Quidditch, to the pumpkin patch, making sandcastles, and the Yule Ball.
And then Aaron imagined their future. Living together... Having a family... Watching their kids go off to Hogwarts, to experience all the same experiences Aaron and Iris had, yet, with their own feelings and interpretations. It would be fantastic.
As time continued, Aaron went down on one knee. The dreaded 'One Knee.' GO FOR IT BUCKO! Aaron could only imagine what Iris was thinking. But Aaron only knew that it felt like millions of eyes were watching him, like their story was coming to an epic climax built upon since the beginning. And as Aaron reached into his pocket for a ring his FANTASTIC mom bought him. That was it. No turning back. Here it goes.
"Iris Beaumont. I want to spend the rest of my life with you... Will you marry me?"
And she would've went on with the list but...
But THAT happened.
She saw their quidditch captain stand up, and she wasn't that far away where she couldn't hear what he was saying to Iris, but then, the whole going down on one knee move...believe it or not, it made her grimace. Especially the 'M' word. Marry. Bleh.

Dear Merlin...
She glared at him her knowing glare. "Ahem.... Not to interrupt your love fest Captain, but we do have a feast to conduct here. Please keep your personal questions to more private areas..." or just away from my presence.
"As you can tell by the green and silver decor, I am coming to congratulate you lot on a term well done." She said not cracking a smile.
However, thank Merlin and all good and evil...Lafay showed up.
YES! Make it stop!
Speaking of Lafay, their Head of House's words caused her to actually notice that the great hall was all green and silver finally. Whaa? When did THAT happen?
o.O
