She found the crisp white box with the silver bow on top. She was so proud of herself for this present. She walked up to the table and tapped Professor Bentley on the leg. She couldn't reach any higher. "Hi Professor Bentley. I made this for you." she was beaning so hard her cheeks were going to be sore in the morning.
Harlow held out the white box and hoped the professor liked the miniature. moonlace plant inside. Her mom had helped her with the charm work to make it a miniature plant. "I'm Harlow," she added.
After all you never accepted anything from a stranger right?
It was an odd sensation... one second she was sitting there conversing with students and staff, and the next second she felt a strange tapping on her leg. If she hadn't gotten accustomed to feeling strange tapping on her leg from her cutesy little puppy, she probably would have jumped. Instead, she raised herself from her seat just a little to peer over the edge of the table.
Oh Merlin! A little Slytherin! How cute! and she had a gift for her?
"Oh hello dear," she replied, smiling brightly at the - first year?
"Thank you Harlow, I appreciate the gesture."
She took the box gently- she wouldn't want to crush it in a moment of excitement. Seren was beginning to get used to accepting gifts from students, admittedly she wasn't comfortable with it this time last year, but a lot had changed since then.
After untying the pretty silver ribbon and removing the lid of the white box she couldn't help but beam brightly at the lovely little moonlace inside.
"Oh Harlow, it's beautiful! thank you," she replied,
"I take it you have an interest in Herbology?" she enquired.
