Even if part of her missed Monsieur Stryker, just because she'd thought he would have been somebody she could speak French to. She'd never actually tried to, but that didn't change the fact she missed the former groundskeeper a little. She'd wanted to explore the new sights, though, anyway, and after stopping off in the Great Hall for breakfast, she'd taken an extra piece of unbuttered toast and headed out to the grounds to look for the duck pond.

Crumbling the toast in her hand as she walked, she tossed a few crumbs at some of the other birds she passed, but closed her hand again as she came across the pond in question. She didn't want to waste too much of her toast on birds other than the ducks she'd brought it for. And, moving closer, she grinned as she saw a familiar figure heading for the water as well. Creeping up behind Matt, she wrapped her arms around him before he got too much closer to the ducks. "Are you turning into a duck on me?," she teased, before letting her boyfriend go and moving next to him as she tossed some of her toast crumbles into the water where the ducks were congregating. "I don't think I have enough bread for you and the ducks." He'd seemed so focused, she hadn't been able to resist. Plus, she hadn't really seen him much since they'd gotten to the school, which made this moment even better.
It seemed like he hadn't even realized that he was distracted by his thoughts until Stella's voice immediately brought him back into reality, Matt couldn't help but chuckle a bit at what she said; well it seemed like the fact that he hadn't gone surfing in practically forever had been affecting him since no matter what he was just drawn to the water. But, at least he hadn't tried to walk into the water since merlin only knew how cold it was and what exactly had been thrown into it by the other students. "If I was, I'd randomly have a beak and start quacking. But no, I'm just your Cali surfer dude boyfriend." That thought quickly made him smile before he noticed that she had been feeding the ducks and just watched as they had gone a little crazy with trying to eat the toast that was on the ground, that was definitely interesting. "So, how have things been with you lately?" Obviously he was curious since between talking to first years and the Prefects in the common room as well as attempting to organize his note before classes started so he hadn't had the chance to spend time with her but it seemed like that problem had been solved now.
